Wikidata names him Jiao Da, so the title stays that personal name. The entry lists him as a servant of the Ningguo house.[^wikidata][^zhwiki] ## Early service He was an old servant of the Ningguo house. As a young man he went on campaign several times with Duke Ning, Jia Yan. Once, when his master was near death, Jiao Da carried him out of a heap of corpses. When food ran out he went hungry himself and stole something for his master. When water ran out he left the remaining half bowl for his master and drank horse urine. Because of that old service, later masters treated him with some indulgence and rarely pressed him.[^zhwiki] ## The denunciation He hated the wasteful life of the younger Ning household. In chapter 7 he got drunk and, without regard for taboo, shouted his accusations in public.[^zhwiki] ## Basic facts - Name: Jiao Da[^wikidata] - Role: male servant of the Ningguo house; this entry records him as a servant[^wikidata] - Setting recorded on this entry: the dynasty of the novel[^wikidata] - Appears in: [[work_cn_q8265|Dream of the Red Chamber]][^zhwiki] /people/jiao-da.html en zh en Character in Dream of the Red Chamber true literary character tag-fictional-character fictional-character Fictional character Fictional or literary characters from classic works. 1026 tag-classics classics Classics Classic works and novels of pre-modern China. 1077 tag-four-great-classics four-great-classics Four Great Classical Novels Dream of the Red Chamber, Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Water Margin, Journey to the West, and their characters. 572 relation_cnworks_depicts_q8265_q10402754 work_cn_q8265 depicts person_cn_q10402754 work_cn_q8265 wikidata Related works work_cn_q8265 Dream of the Red Chamber /en/works/dream-red-chamber.html true 7 2026-10-29T17:18:07+08:00 当前版本 true /en/people/jiao-da/at/7.html en zh en is_fictional Fictional yes person_category Person category literary character disambiguation Disambiguation Character in Dream of the Red Chamber 1 depicts true Related works 1
