During the reign of Emperor Xuan-Zhong in the Tang Dynasty (713-742 A.D.), a few special groups of envoys sent by Japan came to China via three waterways in pursuit of Chinese culture. Among these special envoys, there were scholars, students and monks. They either settled down in China marrying local women and having children, or they accepted positions in the imperial court. Consequently they befriended some Chinese intellectuals, laying a very good foundation of friendship, making it possible for them to compose and exchange poetry with each other. We the authors have searched out and read many classical books of poetry written by Chinese and Japanese intellectuals from among related ancient artifacts of the period in both China and Japan. For example, there is a congratulatory poem written by Chu Guang-xi in celebration of the promotion of Abe Nakamaro. Zhao Hua also wrote a poem to pay farewell to Nakamaro. Wang Wei wrote a farewell poem for Nakamaro as well. Nakamaro also composed a few of his own works in acknowledgement of their farewell poems. Even Emperor Xuan-zhong composed his own poetry for persons such as Fujiwara Kiyokawa. Li Po also composed a poem to mourn the death of Nakamaro. A few Japanese intellectuals wrote similar poems to mourn the pasing away of the noted monk by the name of Zhien Zhen in the Tang Dynasty.
