The Origin of Guqin
As for the origin of the zither, it was difficult to verify it precisely because of the long time. There were many legends related to ancient clan leaders, such as " Fuxi made a zither to cultivate his rationality "," Shennong cut a paulownia tree as a zither and used a rope as a string "," Yao made a five-stringed zither to make the world harmonious "," Shun made a five-stringed zither to sing the south wind ", and so on. There were also scholars who speculated that the Guqin was produced during the Yu Shun period based on the cultivation of silk and production. This was because China had already begun to raise silkworms during the Yu Shun period, and silk was an important material foundation for making stringed instruments. In addition, in the 1860s, two bronze age guqin objects were unearthed at the Erlitou site in Henan Province. According to this, people speculated that the guqin had a history of more than 3,000 years. "Luo Mingxia Love Letter" is equally exciting. Everyone is welcome to click and read it!

The Origin of Banana Leaf Guqin
There were different views on the origin of the banana leaf zither. One view was that the banana leaf piano style began with Liu Bowen. The pattern of banana leaf piano first appeared in Yang Lun's "Qin Music Collection" and Wang Shanwu's "Yue Xian Qin Music Collection", and was clearly recorded as "Liu Bowen's style". However, according to the existing literature records, the invention of banana leaf piano should be in the middle and late Ming Dynasty later than Liu Bowen. Another point of view was that the banana leaf qin was first made by Zhu Gongwang, a famous zither craftsman in the middle of the Ming Dynasty. Gao Lian had detailed records in "Zunsheng Eight Notes: The Distinguishment of Guqin and New Qin", which mentioned that the banana leaf qin style was created by Zhu Gongwang. Gao Lian himself owned a banana leaf qin made by Zhu. He lived in a similar age to Zhu Gongwang, so his records should be more credible. Tu Long's "Qin Notes" also clearly recorded that the banana leaf qin was made by Zhu Gongwang (known as Seagull). In the middle and late Ming Dynasty, the handicraft industry and economic and cultural level were highly developed, and many new piano styles appeared. Zhu Gongwang was a famous piano master, and the saying that the banana leaf piano was created by him was closer to historical facts. The records of the banana leaf zither appeared in the late Ming Dynasty, and there were no records of the banana leaf style before the Ming Dynasty. "Luo Mingxia Love Letter" is equally exciting.
