Cheng is different, so the yellow emperor is Ji, Yan Emperor is Jiang. The two emperors use teachers to help each other, and the reason is also different." [7]

Warring States

The tribes of the Huang, Huai, Jiang and Han regions merged together and formed Huaxia nation . The various clans integrated into this nation originally had their own ancestors. Having become a common nation, the influential ancestors were preserved, and they were placed on a common genealogy, recognizing them as the ancestors of the nation. This is the book Shih Chi · Pedigree of "Five Emperors" in the Five Emperors' Original Records. [38] The more reliable time for the Yellow Emperor to appear in Chinese documentary memory is around Warring States period . In the "pre-Qin literature" written from the Warring States period to the early Han Dynasty, the Yellow Emperor was gradually widely mentioned, but at first he was only associated with Fuxi , Gong Gong , Shennong , A surname Such as ancient emperors at the same time, there is no clan or clan common ancestor. The astronomers of the Warring States Period proposed that the Yellow Emperor's name Xuanyuan or Xuanyuan, which was accepted by historians and written into history books. The legend of the Yellow Emperor originated in the East, and then spread everywhere with the migration of peoples. [46]
" Lieh Tzu "Records: the Yellow emperor took the throne for ten years, exhausted wisdom, intelligence, camp people, Jiao ran muscle color 皯 (ancient thick cut.) 黣, (Sound Sister) Faint and five feeling Shuang confused, (with smart is not enough to cure, only enough to confuse God.) The Yellow Emperor said with a sigh: I have committed adultery. (Lewdness is deep.) Raising one has its own problems, and treating all things has its problems. (But Ren and not raising, longitudinal and not treating, then life refrains and the world is safe.) So put all machines, house palace sleep, go straight to serve, withdraw suspension, reduce kitchen meals, and retreat to live in the hall of the great court, Zhai heart and shape, (heart without desire, shape and self.) No government in March. Sleep in the day and dream, (will be clear to the reason can not be sought, so sent to the dream, the sage has no dream.) Travel in the land of the Huxus. Walsh's Kuni Jae A surname The west, the north of Taizhou, (need not have this country also. This is the way to go. Huainan Zi Yun: Yanzhou in the west, Hezhou in the northwest.) I do not know the kingdom of Qi tens of millions of miles; (Boat and car foot force, shape of the member of the ear, God trance, not to come.) It's beyond the reach of a boat. It's just a wandering mind. Its country has no teachers, its people have no desire, do not know happy life, do not know evil death, so no death injury; I do not know myself, I do not know things, so no hate love; I do not know the back, I do not know the direction, so there is no interest; (Reason has no life and death, so there is no joy and evil, reason has no love and hatred, so there is no affinity, reason has no prosperity, so there is no interest.) There is nothing to love or hate, nothing to fear. Into the water do not drown, into the fire is not hot, hack tart without pain, (to and, nothing can hurt, drowning heat itching, but also by fear.) The air is like a solid, the sleep is like a bed. Clouds do not mince with its eyes, thunder does not mess with its ears, beauty and evil does not Mi-mi its heart, the valley does not stumble its step, God just. The Yellow Emperor was enlightened and pleased with himself. For another twenty-eight years, the whole world was ruled as if it were the country of the Huxus, and the emperor was a fake. (Please accept it as false.) [50]
" Chuang Tzu Record: Kitamon Naru Asked the Yellow Emperor: "Zhang hamji When I first heard of it, I was afraid, and when I heard of it again, I was confused." The Emperor said, "I teach to man, levy to heaven, perform to righteousness, and build up to the ether." (To people to play, to heaven, heaven and people together, er is known to spring as a rite, to autumn as righteousness, too qing is built.) ; "The Yellow Emperor will see you A surname in Kutz Mountain, Fang Ming for the royal, Changyu 骖, Zhang Ruo, Xi friends before the horse, Kun, funny car.

The Yellow Emperor said, "Strange children! Not only know the mountain of Kuzi, but also know the existence of the Great Dao?" Said: "Yes." The Yellow Emperor said, "The matter of my son may be for the whole world." Children's words. The Yellow Emperor asked again.

The Yellow Emperor again worshiped the chief, called the Master of Heaven and withdrew." ; Yellow Emperor Man Hirosunko It lies in Kongtong, so when I saw it, I said: "Dare to ask the essence of the road." Guangchengzi said: "To rule the world by oneself, the clouds do not wait for the rain, the plants do not wait for the yellow and fall, and the light of the sun and the moon benefit to the famine." Is it enough to speak the truth?" The Yellow emperor retired, donated the world, built a special room, Xi Bai MAO, idle in March, and invited it back. When Guangcheng Son lay down with his head in the south, the Yellow Emperor walked in from the lower wind knee, and worshiping the chief again, he asked, "Hearing that my son has reached the highest road, how can I cure my body for a long time?" Guangchengzi rose and said, "How good it is to ask questions! Come, I say you, the essence of the way, quiet and quiet; At the very end of the road, faint silence. Ignore no listening, hold God to quiet, form will be self-positive. I am a thousand and two hundred years old, and I have not lost my shape." The Yellow Emperor again said, "The son of Guangcheng is called heaven!" [50] "Zhuangzi · Zaiyu" records: "Ignore no listening, hold God to quiet, the form will be right." Will be quiet will be clear, no labor female shape, no shaking female essence, but can live forever. The eyes see nothing, the ears hear nothing, the heart knows nothing, the goddess will keep the form, the form is eternal." [15] "Zhuangzi Grand Master" recorded: "The husband, love and sex, nothing is invisible... If the Yellow Emperor gains it, he will ascend to the sky." [16] "Zhuangzi Zhibei You" records: "no thought no thought to know, nowhere to begin to take the road, no way to begin to get the road. Those who do the way will lose more and more, so that nothing can be done, and nothing can be done." [17]

Battle of Zhuolu
At the beginning of the 20th century, Gu Jiegang said in the Book of Ancient History with Qian Xuantong: "The most ancient people in the mind of the Zhou Dynasty are Yu, to Confucius, Yao and Shun, to the Warring States, the Yellow Emperor Shennong, to the Qin Dynasty, to the Han Dynasty, Pangu and so on." "The sacrifice of the Yellow Emperor began in the state of Qin, perhaps the Yellow Emperor is" Huang Longdi 螾 "or something." It can be seen that he believed that the Yellow Emperor was only created during the Warring States period and was not a real historical figure. In The Origin of the Gods, He Xin re-argued that the Yellow Emperor was a mythological figure rather than a historical figure. First of all, he researched the meaning of the yellow character: "Huang," said Wen "pointed out that its character from the ancient" light "word, also read as light word. In fact, yellow and light not only have the same ancient sound, but also have the meaning of light. "Custom" says: 'Huang, Guang Ya. "Shaming" says: "Huang, Huang (sunshine) also. Still shining like the sun. The natural color of daylight is yellow. So in ancient astronomy, the path of the sun was called the Ecliptic. The emperor's robe, not red, but yellow. In feudal times, the Yellow River apricot yellow as the most noble color of the five colors, its vulgarity should be based on this." Then he came to the conclusion: "All this can be proved, yellow, huang, Huang, light in the ancient sound of the same sense, can be used." The Yellow Emperor is the different writing of the emperor, that is, the light Emperor, and this light is the sunlight, the Yellow Emperor is the sun [40] ; " Lost items "Records:" Xuan Yuan yellow Emperor from the bear country "; According to the First Chapter of Chinese History, "There were tribes named Huang Emperor Ji and Yan Emperor Jiang in Shaanxi Province, and they intermarried for generations."
Tsinghua University professors Zhang Jianzhi "Yellow Emperor was born in the Loess Plateau of northern Shaanxi, Yan Emperor was born in the Jiangshui area of Baoji City today. The tribes of the Yellow Emperor and Yan Emperor once moved along the river and developed into the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River and the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, and later became the Huaxia people." [31]
" Gods and Heroes: Motifs of ancient Chinese mythology "In the loess plain of Shaanxi, there are scattered a number of clans living together with women as blood ties... Among these clans, the most famous were the Huangdi and the Yan Di, who lived near the two tributaries of the upper Wei River, the Jiangshui and the Jishui."
"On the Establishment of the status of Huangdi as the ancestor of the Chinese nation" records: "Here the parents of Huangdi and Yan Di are called Shaodian and Youd «Š, respectively, and Ming is two clans [32]
" A concise Chinese history reader "The Yellow Emperor originally lived on the Loess Plateau in today's northern Shaanxi, and the Yan Emperor originally lived in today's Baoji, Shaanxi, and later the Yellow and Yan families gradually moved east." The migration route of the Yellow Emperor clan was northward. After crossing the Yellow River east, they came to the northern Hebei region along the mountain edges of Zhongtiao Mountain and Taihang Mountain. The migration route of the Yan Emperor was slightly to the south, along the Wei River and the Yellow River to the present Henan Province and the south of Hebei Province and northeast of Shandong Province. In the course of their migration, they fought wars with the native tribes in the areas they moved to, including the Battle of Zhuolu with Chiyou and the Battle of Hanquan with Yan in the northern Hebei region. During the Yan and Huang Dynasties, there were conflicts and struggles among the ethnic groups, but there was also unity and integration." [73]

One day, when Ning Feng Zi, an important minister of the Yellow Emperor, was roasting wild animals, he got hard mud in the fire, and thus understood the truth of burning pottery, so he used local materials, built a kiln to burn pottery, and continued throughout the seasons. Burnt urn, nowhere to pile up, then used to build a wall, such as a city, called a barengcheng. Since then, Yudi sheng burned colored pottery, black pottery, celadon and Jun porcelain, kiln fire has not been extinguished, passed down from generation to generation.

The thunder is blazing
Thunder God He was an important minister of the Yellow Emperor, who was well versed in pharmacology and good at acupuncture and moxibustion, and was sealed by the Yellow Emperor in the Fangshan area of Yuzhou, and was the founder of the Fang Lei Kuang family. Lei Gong devoted his life to the study of medicine and wrote a number of medical monographs such as "Lei Gong's Gun on Acupuncture", which became the source of Yuzhou's traditional Chinese medicine culture. His traditional Chinese medicine processing technology has been used to this day, and Yuzhou is rich in traditional Chinese medicine, laying the foundation for Yuzhou to become one of the four major traditional Chinese medicine distribution centers in China.
Yellow dragon healthy body
According to legend, when the Yellow Emperor traveled around the world, he got a kind of divine animal called" Shirasawa The Yellow Emperor was accompanied by "Bai Ze" and renamed as "White Ape" when he was at the promenade. In order to strengthen the body, the Yellow Emperor often fought against the white ape, and gradually found out a set of boxing, because the world regarded the Yellow Emperor as the yellow dragon, so called the Yellow dragon boxing. At first, the secret of Huanglong boxing was not spread to the outside world, until the Ming and Qing Dynasties, it was introduced to the people by the Xiaoyao Taoist, and now it is still practiced in Yuwanggou Village and Jiangzhuang Village in Yuzhou City. It is said that the secret book of Huanglong Boxing is sealed in the Stone Gate Cave of Kongtong Mountain, leaving a mystery to the world.

The fourteen were given twelve surnames, in order: kyi , unitary , The qi , f , vines , , ren , xun , Xi , Ji , talking , clothing . [33] " Tsinghua Jane "Five Disciplines" said Chiyou-warrior He was the son of the Yellow Emperor: "The Yellow Emperor also (had) the Zi Yue temple 蚘 (Chiyou). He grew up as a man and served as the five soldiers." In the Annals of the Grand Historian, The Chronology of the Marquis Since Jianyuan, Tian Qianqiu wrote to Emperor Wudi of Han: "When a son makes a soldier of his father, sin should be flogged." The anger of father and son is as old as time. Chiyou bank father, yellow Emperor wading river." From this point of view, the related legend that Chiyou was the son of the Yellow Emperor in the Five Ji, and that he became a rebellious father after becoming an adult, still circulated in the Han Dynasty. [52]
The book Records of the Grand Historian establishes the lineage of the Yellow Emperor. Sima Qian said that the founders of the Xia Dynasty, the Shang Dynasty and the Zhou Dynasty were all descendants of the Yellow Emperor. [35] The understanding of people at that time was: "The destiny of heaven is difficult to speak, not a saint can see." Shun, Yu, Qi and Hou Ji were all descendants of the Yellow Emperor. The Yellow Emperor ruled the world with the destiny of heaven, and Deze was deep in the later generations, so his descendants were restored as the son of Heaven, which is the virtue of heaven. "This explanation has a mysterious color, but the emphasis on moral education is just the manifestation of the use and transformation of the Yellow Emperor culture by Confucianism in the Western Han Dynasty. [45] Sima Qian not only described the Huaxia as the descendants of the Yellow Emperor, but also described the ethnic minorities in China as the descendants of the Yellow Emperor. Sima Qian believed that the Qin people, Chu people, Wu people, Yue people, Shu people, Southwest Yi, Xiongnu, ancient Korea and so on are the descendants of the Yellow Emperor. [35]

In the 1920s, Gu Jiegang and Hu Shi pointed out that the "emperor" before the Qin dynasty referred to the "God" of heaven, and the "Yellow Emperor" was the god of the Northwest Qin nation, rather than the human emperor. There are many "emperor" characters in oracle bone inscriptions and Jin texts of the Shang Dynasty. The usage of these "emperor" characters can be divided into three kinds: first, as a sacrificial verb refers to 禘; Second, as a noun, it refers to God; Third, the temple name indicates that the Shang king is not called "emperor". From this point of view, since in the Shang Dynasty three thousand years ago, "emperor" still refers to the God of heaven, and the king of the Shang did not declare himself emperor, then the so-called yellow Emperor, who lived four or five thousand years ago, would not refer to the Emperor of man. (Chang Yuzhi's review of the so-called "Yellow Emperor" Seen by the "Emperor" of the Shang Dynasty) [42]
"Yellow Emperor" was originally the supreme God and ancestral god worshipped by all tribes in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River in the three ancient generations, especially in Dongyi. Yellow Emperor was a Chinese title, for which it was pronounced "worry" (Wang Guowei explained it as "夒", incorrect) and "Zhuo" in inscriptions, while it was later changed to "喾 (Lag)" in Chinese texts. Or the form is mistaken as "夋", the pronunciation is changed to "Di Jun" in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, and the pronunciation is changed to "Di Shun" in other documents. Therefore, the "Yellow Emperor" in the Book of Mountains and Seas is the emperor Jun; Other references refer to the Yellow Emperor as Di 喾 or Di Shun. (Review of Wang Ning's "Examination of the Source of the Yellow Emperor") [46]
