Man Yi Zhuan of *Song Shu* (*Book of Song Dynasty*). In the early Tian Jian Era (502 CE), the Gupta ruler in central India sent an envoy Zhu Luo Da to take a letter to Emperor Wu of Liang (reigned 502-548 CE). Despite their similar and thus doubtful contents, these two letters expressed sincere good wishes, and may serve as a testimony to the friendly intercourse between the two states. In the 2^nd year of Tai Shi Era (466 CE), Kapilavastu sent envoys Zhu Fu Da and Zhu A Mi to southern China, and the Chinese emperor conferred the title of Jian Wei General on them.
