Wikidata and the cited Chinese Wikipedia both record this title and do not give a separate personal name, so the title stays unchanged.[^wikidata][^zhwiki] ## Role The Chinese Wikipedia counts him among the Four Sages of the North and describes him as their leader, a commander of divine troops who drives off evil, and one of the heads of the thunder ministry. It also treats him as one lodge of the Northern Dipper, later honored as a star god and pictured as a general under the Purple Tenuity Emperor: three heads, six arms, and a broad-axe, set over the Dipper and Fengdu.

After Qin Keqing died, no one in the Qin household came forward for the funeral. Baozhu offered to act as an adopted daughter and vowed to see the mourning through. Jia Zhen was pleased and had the decision announced, and people afterwards called her miss. She later stayed with Qin Keqing's coffin at Iron Threshold Temple and refused to return to the Ning mansion.

It does not give a different personal name, so the title stays You Sanjie.[^wikidata] ## In the novel She is the younger sister of You Erjie and a daughter of the stepmother of Madam You, Jia Zhen's wife. In opera she and her sister are often paired as the two You sisters of the novel. The Chinese Wikipedia describes her as fierce in temper and unwilling to be trifled with. Jia Lian later acted as matchmaker, and she agreed to marry Liu Xianglian. Liu Xianglian believed a rumor that she was unchaste and asked for the betrothal swords back. To clear herself she drew a sword and killed herself. Liu Xianglian regretted it too late, cut off his hair, and left home.[^zhwiki] ## Basic facts - Name: You Sanjie[^wikidata] - Description: a character in Dream of the Red Chamber[^wikidata] - Appears in: [[work_cn_q8265|Dream of the Red Chamber]] /people/you-sanjie-q10264740.html en zh en Character in Dream of the Red Chamber true literary character person_cn_q10264763 person you-erjie-q10264763 尤二姐

Wikidata uses You Erjie as her name and also lists You Shi. It does not give a different personal name, so the title stays You Erjie.[^wikidata] ## In the novel She and You Sanjie were daughters brought by Madam You's stepmother, old Mrs You. Opera often pairs them as the two You sisters. The Chinese Wikipedia describes You Erjie as sentimental, gentle and beautiful: careless in conduct before her marriage, but loyal once she was married to Jia Lian. Jia Lian secretly took her as a second wife and housed her outside the Rong mansion. Ping'er mentioned this to Wang Xifeng without meaning to. While Jia Lian was away, Wang Xifeng brought You Erjie into the household. Outside, she used Zhang Hua, the former fiancé whose engagement had already been broken, to damage You Erjie's name and bring a lawsuit. Inside, she was outwardly kinder, while Qiutong was set to harass You Erjie, meals were withheld, and a quack doctor destroyed a nearly formed child. Under that pressure You Erjie swallowed gold and died. When Jia Lian returned he found almost nothing left of her property. Wang Xifeng also used Lady Jia's words to keep You Erjie from being buried in the family temple. Ping'er later paid the funeral from her own savings.[^zhwiki] ## Basic facts - Name: You Erjie[^wikidata] - Description: a character in Dream of the Red Chamber[^wikidata] - Appears in: [[work_cn_q8265|Dream of the Red Chamber]] /people/you-erjie-q10264763.html en zh en Character in Dream of the Red Chamber true literary character person_cn_q10271367 person cui-jue-q10271367 崔府君

Cui Fujun is a north-Chinese folk deity said to judge the underworld. Tang and Song records disagree about his personal name, and one source says it was lost.

Wikidata uses Cui Fujun as the Chinese title and also lists Cui Jue, Cui Ci, Cui Ziyu and Cui Yuanjing. The cited Chinese Wikipedia says Tang and Song records are scattered, that the Long Draft Continuation of the Comprehensive Mirror states that his name was lost, and that one tradition calls him Jue while another calls him Ci, courtesy name Ziyu. Because the citations do not settle on one personal name, the titles already on this entry stay unchanged.[^wikidata][^zhwiki] ## Rival origins The Chinese Wikipedia reports an account in the Compendium of Gods from the Three Teachings: he was from Gucheng in Qizhou, his father was Cui Rang, he was born on the sixth day of the sixth month of the third year of Daye, and he was named Ziyu. In the seventh year of Zhenguan he was magistrate of Changzi county in Luzhou, and legend says he judged the living by day and the underworld by night. Shanxi gazetteers more often record a Cui Jue of Leping. The same page also tells of his magistracy at Fuyang in Cizhou, and of the Dunhuang tale Tang Taizong Enters the Underworld, in which he, as judge of Fengdu, releases Taizong's soul. Journey to the West mentions that story.[^zhwiki] ## Later titles The page goes on to say that during the An Lushan rebellion he appeared in a dream to comfort Emperor Xuanzong and was enfeoffed as the Numinous and Holy Marquis Who Protects the State. In the second year of Jingyou he was advanced to Duke of Manifest Response Who Protects the State, and in the second year of Yuanfu to the corresponding prince. A further title added Zhaohui. Under the Southern Song the story of the clay horse carrying Prince Kang was told. After Zhao Gou took the throne he founded a temple and granted it the plaque Xianwei. In the thirteenth year of Chunxi the deity was reclassified as a perfected lord. Popular usage still called him Cui Fujun.[^zhwiki] ## Basic facts - Title used here: Cui Fujun[^wikidata] - Description on this entry: fictional person[^wikidata] - Setting recorded on this entry: Tang[^wikidata] - Appears in: [[work_cn_q70784|Journey to the West]] /people/cui-jue-q10271367.html en zh en Character in Journey to the West true literary character person_cn_q10294598 person zhang-shang-q10294598 张尚

Legend places his former home on Kunyu Mountain in Wendeng, Ninghai, Shandong, now Wendeng in Shandong province. He is paired with Xihua Jinmu, the Queen Mother of the West.[^zhwiki] ## Later identifications The same page says that from the Yuan dynasty some Daoists identified him with the Eastern King, or said he was incarnated as Wang Xuanfu.

Wikidata uses Wu Yong as his name. The cited Chinese Wikipedia gives his courtesy name as Xuejiu, his Daoist name as Master Jialiang, and his nickname as the Star of Wisdom, so the title stays the personal name. This entry records his death in 1124.[^wikidata][^zhwiki] ## Origins He is from Dongxi village in Yuncheng county, Jizhou, Shandong. He and Chao Gai had been friends since childhood, and his companions respectfully called him Scholar Wu. He had worked as a tutor in wealthy households. The page says he was learned in military stratagems, clear-browed and fair, with a long beard, and skilled with a pair of bronze chains.[^zhwiki] ## Liangshan He later planned the seizure, by Chao Gai and others, of the hundred thousand strings of birthday tribute that Governor Liang was sending to Cai Jing. Warned by Song Jiang, they reached Liangshan before the pursuit. After arriving, Wu Yong provoked Lin Chong into killing Wang Lun and setting Chao Gai up as chief. Wu Yong himself became Liangshan's chief strategist, and both civil and military business passed through his hands.

Divine Fire General is a nickname and Earth-fierce Star is a star name, so the title stays the personal name.[^wikidata] ## In the novel The cited Chinese Wikipedia says he is from Lingzhou, skilled in fire attack, and fights with fire weapons. He is called the Divine Fire General. He has eyes like bright stars, a round face and a tiger beard, and he dresses in red, with a red-bronze spear and a red horse, set against Shan Tinggui's black equipment. After Liangshan took Daming, Cai Jing recommended him and Shan Tinggui against the outlaws. In the first battle the two generals captured Xuan Zan and Hao Siwen. After Guan Sheng brought Shan Tinggui over, their combined force besieged Wei Dingguo in Lingzhou. With no way back, and with Guan Sheng coming in person to urge surrender, Wei Dingguo joined Liangshan. Later he followed Lu Junyi against Fang La's Shezhou. Seeing no banners and no soldiers on the wall, he and Shan Tinggui raced for the credit. They did not see the trap, fell with their horses into a pit, and were killed by the ambush.[^zhwiki] ## Basic facts - Name: Wei Dingguo[^wikidata] - Nickname: Divine Fire General[^zhwiki] - Description: a character in Water Margin[^wikidata] - Occupation recorded on this entry: military officer[^wikidata] - Appears in: [[work_cn_q70827|Water Margin]] /people/wei-dingguo-q1038434.html en zh en Character in Water Margin true literary character person_cn_q10402754 person jiao-da-q10402754 焦大

He has the same given name as Jia Baoyu, looks and temperament much like him, and is one year younger. The surnames Zhen and Jia are used to set the true against the false. The Zhen house is as eminent as the Jia house: its ancestors received the imperial visit four times, and the two families are both old kin and hereditary friends.[^zhwiki] ## What the first eighty chapters say In the first eighty chapters Zhen Baoyu never comes on stage. People in the Jia house only talk about him. They say he was unruly as a child and skipped school every day, and that he would study only with two girls beside him. He held the word daughter to be the most honored and the most pure, rarer than auspicious beasts or rare plants. When his father beat him past endurance he cried out sister at random. Jia Baoyu met him in a dream and kept expecting him. When Zhen Baoyu was four, Jia Yucun came as the family tutor and resigned because he could not bear the grandmother's spoiling. The article says the same Jia Yucun also began Lin Daiyu's lessons. At fourteen the Zhen house was raided, and Zhen Baoyu, like Jia Baoyu, dreamed of the Land of Illusion. The article lists these mentions of the Zhen family in the first eighty chapters: Jia Yucun speaks of the Jiangnan Zhen house while Leng Zixing describes the Rongguo house; Xifeng reports a gift from the Zhen house; Nanny Zhao tells of four imperial receptions; the Zhen house comes to the capital to pay respects and the Zhen lady is received; five hundred taels of funeral silver arrive after Jia Jing's death; a screen arrives for the Lady Dowager's birthday; during the search of the garden Tanchun says the household was discussing the raid on the Zhen house that morning; Madam You reads in the gazette that the Zhen house is guilty; Lady Wang tells the Lady Dowager of the confiscation and the summons to the capital for punishment.[^zhwiki] ## The later account in the article The article says that after waking he put away his childhood mischief, set his mind on rank, and studied in earnest. At eighteen he met Jia Baoyu. Jia Baoyu thought him bent on office, a parasite of salary, and they parted on bad terms. Zhen Baoyu later passed the provincial examination. When he heard from Jia Lan that Jia Baoyu had wandered off in a daze, he sighed and tried to comfort the family. In the tenth month Jia Baoyu took leave of Jia Zheng and returned to the Green Ridge Peak. Zhen Baoyu stayed in the ordinary world, married Li Qi, a cousin of Li Wan, and meant to restore the house through the examinations.[^zhwiki] ## Basic facts - Name: Zhen Baoyu[^wikidata] - Description: a character in Dream of the Red Chamber[^wikidata] - Appears in: [[work_cn_q8265|Dream of the Red Chamber]][^zhwiki] /people/zhen-baoyu-q10423836.html en zh en Character in Dream of the Red Chamber true literary character person_cn_q1043973 person yan-zheng-q1043973 严政

Guan Yu escorted his two sisters-in-law out of the post station. Wang Zhi pursued and was cut in two at the waist.[^zhwiki] ## Joining Liu Bei Hu Ban later came to Jing province and surrendered to Guan Yu, who remembered the old rescue.

She was betrothed to Zhu Biao. She fights with a pair of sun-and-moon swords and can take prisoners with a rope from the saddle. When Song Jiang attacked Zhu manor, Hu manor sent troops to help. Her rope took Wang Ying, Qin Ming, and others one after another, and for a time no one on Liangshan dared to meet her. Song Jiang sent Lin Chong. Lin Chong captured her, and Song Jiang gave her to his father, Lord Song, to watch. Hu Cheng then made peace, agreeing that anyone from Zhu manor who fled to Hu manor would be bound and sent to Liangshan, in exchange for Hu Sanniang.[^zhwiki] ## On the mountain, and her death After Zhu manor was destroyed she took Lord Song as an adoptive father and became Song Jiang's sworn younger sister. The article calls her the first woman commander of Liangshan. Song Jiang matched her with Wang Ying. Husband and wife together handled the internal affairs of the Liangshan forces, and she ranked fifty-ninth. In the later campaign against Fang La, Zheng Biao killed Wang Ying. She went to take revenge and was struck from her horse by a stone bullet Zheng Biao threw. She died and was posthumously titled Lady of Huayang commandery.[^zhwiki] ## A few further notes in the article The article says that in chapter 55, fighting Huyan Zhuo, she tells the Hua general to rest and watch her take the man, that in chapter 51 she bows her thanks when Song Jiang makes the match, and that she joins the oath at the great assembly. The 120-chapter version adds a line in the Tian Hu campaign: when Qiong Ying spears Wang Ying in the thigh, Hu Sanniang curses her. In earlier sources the name Yizhangqing is not this woman. In the Eulogies of Song Jiang's Thirty-Six it appears in the verse for Yan Qing, and the Anecdotes of the Xuanhe Reign of the Great Song has a Yizhangqing Zhang Heng.

Shi Jin, in Water Margin, is the young master of Shi manor in Huayin county. His nickname is Nine Dragons and his star name is Tianweixing. He ranks twenty-third on Liangshan.

Wikidata names him Shi Jin. The same materials also give the nickname Nine Dragons, the star name Tianweixing, and the other form Shi Dalang. None of those replaces the title. This entry calls him a Water Margin figure, sets the story in the Great Song, and records his birthplace as Huayin county. He is the first of the hundred and eight to appear.[^wikidata][^zhwiki] ## Shi manor He is the son of Shi Taigong of Shi manor in Huayin county. Nine dragons are tattooed on his body, so he is called Nine Dragons, and his favorite weapon is a three-point, two-edge knife. His father hired many teachers. Li Zhong, the tiger-slaying general of Liangshan, was one of the early ones. Wang Jin, an instructor of the eight hundred thousand imperial guards at the eastern capital, offended Gao Qiu and fled the capital with his mother. He lodged at Shi manor, pointed out the gaps in Shi Jin's skill, and beat him easily in a bout. Shi Jin then took Wang Jin as his teacher. After several months Wang Jin said the teaching was complete. He would not involve the Shi family in his quarrel with Gao Qiu, and he left.[^zhwiki] ## Shaohua Mountain Chen Da, a chief of Shaohua Mountain, attacked Shi manor and was captured. His sworn brothers Zhu Wu and Yang Chun came to plead. Shi Jin released Chen Da, and the four became friends. A messenger later got drunk on the mountain path. The hunter Li Ji stole the reply and reported Shi Jin to the authorities for dealing with bandits. The troops sent to seize him were beaten off by Shi Jin and the manor men he had trained. After the officers were killed he left to find Wang Jin and could not. On the road he met Lu Zhishen and also Li Zhong, who was performing in the street. With Lu Zhishen he defeated Cui Daocheng and Qiu Xiaoyi, bandits pretending to be monks. After they parted, Shi Jin went back to Shaohua Mountain and became an outlaw.[^zhwiki] ## Joining Liangshan When he heard that Wang Yi's daughter had been taken by force in marriage, he tried to save her and was captured alive. Lu Zhishen, newly arrived on Liangshan, went to rescue him and was captured too. Song Jiang disguised himself as Marshal Su and brought Lu Zhishen, Shi Jin, and Wang Yi out. Wang Yi's daughter had already killed herself. Shi Jin then took the Shaohua men up to Liangshan. At the attack on Dongping, because his old lover, the famous courtesan Li Ruilan, was in the city, he volunteered to enter as a spy and told her the whole plan. Afraid of the trouble, she informed the officials and he was arrested. He was beaten and did not confess. After Liangshan took the city and freed him, he killed Li Ruilan's whole household. When the seats were ranked he was Tianweixing, Nine Dragons, number twenty-three, immediately after Li Kui.[^zhwiki] ## The end, and earlier lists After the amnesty he followed Song Jiang against Liao, Tian Hu, and Wang Qing. He fought Tian Hu's general Bian Xiang for thirty bouts without a winner. In the southern campaign against Fang La he took Runzhou and cut down Shen Gang, called the Pillar of Heaven, with one blow. At Yuling Pass in Muzhou he died under an arrow of Pang Wanchun, called the Little Yang Youji. Pang Wanchun was later captured, and his belly was opened and his heart taken out as a sacrifice to Shi Jin and six other generals. In earlier lists, Gong Kai's Eulogies of Song Jiang's Thirty-Six ranks him seventeenth, still as Nine Dragons, and the Anecdotes of the Xuanhe Reign ranks him fifth of the thirty-six. The article also says one account takes his model to be Shi Bin, a Shaanxi rebel of the early Southern Song who had once served under Song Jiang. The article lists screen performers.

The Ziwei Emperor, fully titled the Great Emperor of the Purple Tenuity of the North Pole in the Central Heaven, is one of the Four Sovereigns of Daoism and the second son of Doumu. Other accounts identify him with Lord Lao, Boyi Kao, or a reincarnation of Liu Bang, so the title stays. This entry lists him under Journey to the West.

Wikidata names him the Ziwei Emperor. The full title is the Great Emperor of the Purple Tenuity of the North Pole in the Central Heaven. That is a ritual title, not a separate personal name. The cited article gives several origins that do not agree, so the heading stays the Ziwei Emperor. This entry lists him among the figures of Journey to the West. The encyclopedia does not narrate an episode from that novel.[^wikidata][^zhwiki] ## The god He is one of the Four Sovereigns and the second son of Doumu, the star lord of the Purple Forbidden enclosure. Daoism places that enclosure at the center of the stars. He assists the Jade Emperor in charge of the stars, the sun, and the moon, and is lord of the stars. He is also a symbol of earthly emperors and especially governs the fortune of the imperial house. His four sage-lords are [[person_cn_q10022741|Marshal Tianpeng]], Marshal Tianyou, the Assisting Sage, and the Protecting Sage. In Chinese Buddhism, Chan and Tiantai temples sometimes honor him as one of the twenty-four heavenly guardians.[^zhwiki] ## Accounts that do not agree One account calls him a transformation of the Most High Lord Lao. The article quotes the Treatise on Buddhism and Daoism in the Book of Wei: the Daoist school says it comes from Laozi, who dwells above in the Jade Capital as the ancestor of divine kings and below in the Purple Tenuity as lord of flying immortals. The novels also differ. Investiture of the Gods enfeoffs Boyi Kao, killed while trying to save his father King Wen of Zhou, as the Ziwei Emperor. Annals of the Sword of the Peak has Sun Bin, in order to break the Hundun formation, summon Liu Bang, then a standard-bearer of the state of Han and said to be a reincarnation of the Ziwei Emperor of the North Pole.

This entry records him as a figure of Journey to the West.[^wikidata][^zhwiki] ## The pupil He takes Sun Wukong as a disciple and teaches the seventy-two transformations, deathlessness, and the cloud somersault. He foresees that Wukong will make trouble, and he requires secrecy: the school and the old story of the training must never be mentioned. In chapter 1 a woodcutter points the Handsome Monkey King the way, and Wukong then meets him. The book presents him as a great immortal versed in both Daoism and Buddhism, of high powers and many disciples. People of the hills and wilds receive his teaching. He leads them toward the Way and also teaches ways of strengthening the body and calming the mind.[^zhwiki] ## The name, and later guesses Commentators say Subhuti was a great disciple of the Tathagata, known for understanding emptiness, and that the Diamond Sutra is what the Buddha said to Subhuti. The name was not originally a title among immortals, and some take that to mean the immortal and the Buddha are one. The article also gathers guesses about who he really was. Some say the Tathagata, using among other things Wukong's later thought that he bowed only to the Buddha, to Guanyin, and to the teacher of the Mountain of the Two Boundaries, together with the Tathagata's awakening under the bodhi tree. Other guesses are Guanyin, the Most High Lord Lao, a junior fellow of the Tathagata, Subhuti among the Tathagata's ten great disciples, and a portrait of the author. Popular talk adds the Daoist Zhunti and the Primordial Heavenly Worthy. The article says the last of these mixes Journey to the West with Investiture of the Gods. The television series The Lotus Lantern and its prequel present Yuding Zhenren as an earlier or true form of Patriarch Subhuti.

Wikidata's simplified Chinese label is Diting, and the English label is Diting. The cited article says it is also called Shanting. That is a beast's name, not a person's, so the title stays Diting. This entry records it as a mythical divine beast and lists it under Journey to the West.[^wikidata][^zhwiki] ## The record, and the form It is said to be the mount of the bodhisattva Ksitigarbha, and temples often place it beside his altar. The earliest record is the Account of Daoming's Return from the Dead. In the thirteenth year of Dali (778) the monk Daoming entered the underworld, saw Ksitigarbha, painted his true likeness, and said that Manjushri, transformed into a golden-haired lion, was beside Ksitigarbha, while Diting listened to the past lives of the dead. The form is described as a tiger's head, a rhinoceros horn, a dog's ears, a dragon's body, a lion's tail, and the feet of a qilin. It is also said to tell good from evil and the worthy from the foolish.[^zhwiki] ## Journey to the West Wu Cheng'en's Journey to the West says that if Diting crouches on the ground, in a short while it can look over the mountains, the states, the grotto-heavens, and the blessed places of the four continents, and can judge the good and evil of every kind of creature and immortal.[^zhwiki] ## Basic facts - Name: Diting, also called Shanting[^wikidata][^zhwiki] - Description: a divine beast of myth[^wikidata] - Appears in: [[work_cn_q70784|Journey to the West]][^zhwiki] /people/diting-q10527263.html en zh en Character in Journey to the West true literary character person_cn_q1052946 person guan-sheng-q1052946 关胜

His weapon is the Green Dragon crescent blade and his horse is Red Hare, so he is called Guan Sheng of the Great Sword. He had been inspector of Pudong. When Daming in the northern capital was besieged, Grand Preceptor Cai Jing sent him to the rescue. He used the plan of besieging Wei to rescue Zhao, and with Hao Siwen, Xuan Zan, and others led picked troops, which the article numbers as ten thousand and a thousand, against Liangshan. Song Jiang withdrew to save the mountain. Guan Sheng won the first engagements and captured several men of Liangshan. Against Song Jiang he did not win, and Song Jiang still recalled the army. Song Jiang had sent Huyan Zhuo to pretend to surrender to the court and lure Guan Sheng into an attack. Guan Sheng fell into the ambush and was captured. Song Jiang untied him in person, and Guan Sheng decided to join. He became the fifth chief of Liangshan.[^zhwiki] ## After he joined Cai Jing then recommended the paired generals of water and fire, Shan Tinggui and Wei Dingguo. Guan Sheng volunteered and went out with Hao Siwen and Xuan Zan. Those two were captured when they charged, and Guan Sheng retreated. He fought Shan Tinggui again, drew him into a pursuit, struck him from the horse, and Shan Tinggui surrendered. Wei Dingguo was then brought over as well. When the hundred and eight gathered, Guan Sheng was made the first of the five tigers of the cavalry. He followed Song Jiang against Liao, Tian Hu, Wang Qing, and Fang La. He cut down the Liao general Wuyan Guang and Qian Pengju on Fang La's side, and he brought over the Hebei general Tang Bin. Against Fang La he fought Shi Bao, one of the four marshals of Jiangnan, to a draw more than once. He thought Shi Bao's blade was not beneath his own, and he saw through Shi Bao's hidden meteor hammer. After the pacification he returned to court, was appointed a regular general, and became commander of the horse at Daming. Later he drank too much, fell from his horse, and died of the injury.

He is skilled both in Daoist arts and with spear and staff. Hearing that Yang Zhi was escorting Cai Jing's birthday gift, he thought the wealth unjust and went to Chao Gai to plan its seizure. After the affair he drove off He Tao and went up to Liangshan. When Song Jiang had been rescued from the execution ground at Jiangzhou, Gongsun Sheng missed his old mother, went home, and did not return. When Song Jiang attacked Gaotang and lost to Gao Lian's sorcery, he was asked down again. With the orthodox method of the five thunders and the heavenly stars, taught by Luo the Perfected, he broke Gao Lian's art. Shi Jin's first battle at Mangdang Mountain went badly. Gongsun Sheng arrived with troops, set an eight-trigram formation, broke Fan Rui's sorcery, and received Fan Rui and the others. When the hundred and eight gathered, he served as the strategist who kept the secrets.[^zhwiki] ## After the amnesty After the amnesty he followed the campaigns against Liao and Tian Hu. Tian Hu's strategist Qiao Daoqing defeated the Liangshan men with sorcery. Gongsun Sheng broke that art and received him. Against Wang Qing, Lu Junyi fought Li Zhu, called the Master of the Golden Sword, at Nanfeng and could not match the sword. Gongsun Sheng arrived with the center army and by art made the sword leave Li Zhu's hand, so Lu Junyi captured him alive. After Wang Qing was pacified, Song Jiang camped at Chenqiao post outside the eastern capital. Gongsun Sheng remembered Luo the Perfected's words, return when you meet the Bian, took leave of Song Jiang, and went back to the Mountain of the Two Immortals in Jizhou.
