came into China from Japan during Qian Long Emperor. Scholars have been discussing it reality since then. Supporters take it as treasure while others try to prove it pseudo from quotations
records and language analysis. Among them
Si Ku Zong Mu Ti Yao
and Zheng Zhen’s opinions are more convincing. Recently
Dunhuang documents proved the reality of
Xiao Jing Zheng Xuan Zhu
. This stimulates some scholars to prove the reality of
Gu Wen Xiao Jing Kong Zhuan
. This paper finds that their evidences are not convincing. Through rechecking the words of Gu Wen Xiao Jing Kong Zhuan
we find some scriptures inherit errors created by scholars in South Song Dynasty when they combined Emperor Xuanzong’s annotation
Sima Guang’s explanation and Fan zuyu’s interpretation. Besides
annotation in Gu
Wen Xiao Jing Kong Zhuan
is different with existing annotation inherited from Han and Tang Dynasty. Thess all prove that
Gu Wen Xiao Jing Kong Zhuan
from Japan is not original Kong anguo’s annotation in Han and Tang Dynasty.
