Biography
Yandi Emperor, the legendary head of the Jiang clan in the Ancient Period, was also known as Chidi and Lie Shan Clan, and was said to be the Shennong Clan (or the descendants of Shennong Clan). According to legend, his mother's name is Nü Deng, one day touring Huayang, by the divine dragon around the body, inducted and conceived, giving birth to Yan Di. Legend has it that Yandi had a bull's head and horns on his head. Yandi was born in the stone chamber of Lie Shan and grew up in Jiang Shui. He had the holy virtue of being the king of fire, so he was called Yandi. Yandi was young and smart, he could talk in three days, walk in five days, and know about harvest in three years. He did many good things for the people in his life: he taught them how to farm, so that they could have plenty of food and clothing; he tasted all kinds of herbs so that he was poisoned seventy times a day, in order to protect the people from diseases. He also made musical instruments so that the people could know the etiquette, which was praised by the later generations. His people initially operated in the southern part of present-day Shaanxi, but later developed eastward along the Yellow River and clashed with the Yellow Emperor. In the Battle of Hanquan, Yandi was defeated by the Yellow Emperor, and the Yandi tribe merged with the Yellow Emperor tribe to form the Huaxia tribe, which is why today's Chinese people call themselves the "descendants of Yandi". At present, historians also support another theory, that is, the Yellow Emperor was active in the upper reaches of the Yellow River, on the west side of Mount Tai, and the Yan Emperor was active in the lower reaches of the Yellow River, on the east side of Mount Tai. The two tribes, in order to compete for the right of domination, had a duel in the battle of Hankuan, also known as Zhuo Lu (both located in Zhuo Lu County, Zhangjiakou City, Hebei Province, nowadays), in which the Yellow Emperor won the victory and banished the Yan Emperor to the south (recalled later on), thus creating the situation of unification of the Huaxia.
Yandi was the leader of the Jiang tribe in ancient times in China, with the name of Lie Shan or Li Shan, located in the upper reaches of the Yellow River and the Wei River area. According to the "Records of the Grand Historian" and other ancient records, Yandi's surname was "Yijie" and his name was Shi Nian. His mother was a woman of the Yujiao clan, named Nideng, who was the consort of Shaodian. She gave birth to Emperor Yan. Growing in the ginger water, so there is a 'ginger' name. According to the "Program of knowledge" and other records: "Yandi to fire virtue on behalf of Fuxi rule the world, its customs simple, heavy end of honesty, not forked dispute and wealth, no system of order and the people from, Wei Li and do not kill, the law province and not annoying, so the south to Jiao-toe, the north to the Youdu, east to the intestinal Valley, west to the three dangerous, not from its chemical." The Book of Yue Jie says: "In the past, Shen Nong's rule of the world, business benefits have been carried out, do not hope for its reward; not greedy for the world's wealth, but the world **** rich; not to its intelligence self-priority over others, but the world **** respect."
Legend of Yandi
Yandi's surname was Jiang. Legend has it that he had a bull's head and body, and was the leader of a clan with a sheep as its totem, which is now known as the Qiang clan. Initially, this clan operated in the Weihe River basin, another said to have operated in the Sishui basin (lower reaches of the Yellow River), and later entered the middle reaches of the Yellow River, where they had a long period of conflict with the Jiu Li tribe. Jiu Li clan leader called Chi, animal body and face, copper head and iron neck, head with horns, ear hair hard as a sword, can eat gravel, may be some kind of beast as a totem of the clan. He has eighty-one brothers, that is, eighty-one clans, is brave and warlike powerful clan tribes. Chi You expelled Emperor Yan Di to Zhuo Lu (now in the basin of Sang Gan River in northwestern Hebei, or around present-day Shan Tai Mountain in Shandong Province). Yandi asked the Yellow Emperor for help, and the two sides fought in Zhuo Deer. Chi You asked the wind and rain master to make rain, and created a fog to make the soldiers of the Yellow Emperor lost their way, and the Yellow Emperor asked the drought goddess Drought Demoness to clear up the weather, and created a "guide car" to identify the direction. The result of this fierce war is Chi You failed and was killed. The Yellow Emperor was victorious and was elected "Son of Heaven".
History increasingly support another theory, Emperor Yan Di with the Yellow Emperor is a kind of emperor, and Emperor Yan Di's lineage of generations living in the lower reaches of the Yellow River, the late Shennong's tribes in charge of the position of Emperor Yan Di, and the Yellow Emperor's tribe, the Gongsun surname, rose in the western side of Mount Tai, and at this time, Shennong's tribes have been unable to conquest commanded the whole world, the Yellow Emperor began to conquest of the vassals, accumulating strength in the Hanshanquan that is, the deer (around the Taishan Mountains) and the Yandi Shennong's battle, Yandi Shennong's battle was crushed, the Yellow Emperor was able to order the world's vassals, exiled Yandi Shennong's in the south of Chu, and the other does not obey the Yellow Emperor's orders of the southern Chi tribe, this is Yandi Shennong's subordinates, threatened to avenge for the Yandi, gathered the crowd and the Yellow Emperor war, several times to defeat the Yellow Emperor, and finally by the Yellow Emperor used the scheme to defeat and kill the Yellow Emperor and subsequently has been pacified the remaining Chi - Xingtian's rebellion, and eventually unified the world, while taking into consideration that the Shennong's tribe has no power to command the world at this time. Eventually united the world, while taking into account the popularity of Emperor Yan Di, popularity is still alive, and later will be recalled to support the government, the merger of Emperor Yan Di Shennong's tribe, later known as the Yanhuang tribe ...
Another theory is that the Yandi lineage of generations living in the lower reaches of the Yellow River, the late Yandi a by Shennong's power, and the last generation of Shennong's Yandi that is known as the Lie Shan's, Banquan's Chi, ginger (the East of the surname, more gathered in the area of today's Linzi in Shandong Province, East China Sea, Jiang Shang ginger is one of its descendants), the world was in chaos, and the lords and the rise of Shennong's difficult to continue to control the world, the Yellow Emperor rose to the forefront, the intention to compete for the position of emperor. Intended to compete for the throne, and support the traditional Yan Di ruling tribes and support the emerging Huang Di ruling tribes in the Hakuchan (that is, deer) duel, Hakuchan is also the last Yan Di base, the last generation of Shennong's Yan Di Chiyu combat valor, although the previous Yan Di system under the leadership of the Chiyu won many battles, but ultimately routed by the Yellow Emperor around the Taishan Mountain, this is a rare and intense ancient history of the Great War, Chiyu later worshiped as the God of War, every battle must be sacrificed to the God of War, the war is not a war. As the god of war, every battle must be sacrificed, is also a symbol of the tenacity of the Chinese people... After the Yellow Emperor followed the trend of Zen Taishan, the capital of Qufu, the establishment of a unified pattern of China and Xia...
Legend is a tribal leader in ancient times, and with the Yellow Emperor as the founder of the Chinese nation.

The Jiang Clan, a member of the Xirong Clan (or Dongyi Clan) and originally a nomadic people (or farming tribe), entered the Central Plains from the West at a very early stage. And at that time in today's Shaanxi and Henan junction, inhabited by Chi as the head of the Jiu Li tribe (some say that the sole Miao), the two sides due to the development of the tribe and the occurrence of a long-term conflict, Yandi invincible and retreated to the present in Hebei Province area. It is said that because of the "Yandi want to invade the vassals", and then with the Xuan Yuan clan of the yellow emperor of the surname of the three fierce battles, this is considered to be the first large-scale war of the Chinese nation, known as the Battle of the Hakkanquan (Hakkanquan, the present suburb of Beijing in the territory of the village of Hakkanquan). Faced with a formidable opponent who commanded the bears, warriors, pi, braves, tigers, and totem tribes, Emperor Yan was defeated and allied himself with them, and the Yellow Emperor ended the war on a winning note.
Yanhuang alliance continues to expand, the submissive tribes more and more, but Chiyou always disobeyed, a war is inevitable. Chi You led by the Nine Li, and the alliance war in Zhuo Lu (now the village of Zhuo Lu, Hebei Province), is the second war for the legendary era, known as the Zhuo Lu war, the so-called Zhuo Lu in the Central Plains, source out of this. Finally Chi You was defeated. From then on, the Jiang clan settled down with the Yellow Emperor in the Central Plains.

His mother's name was Attachment Bao, and according to the history books; on the second day of the second month of the lunar calendar, the Yellow Emperor was born in Shouqiu (present-day Qufu, Shandong Province). Sima Qian in the "Records of the Grand Historian" on the Yellow Emperor is this description: "born divine, weak and able to speak, young and favoritism, long and Dun Min, into the smart.

Not long after his birth, he was able to speak. By the age of 15, he was already omniscient. Later he inherited the throne of the king of the state of Ursus. Because he invented the Xuan Coronet, he was called Xuanyuan. He was also called the Yellow Emperor because he was king by the virtue of earth, the color of which was yellow.
According to legend, when the Yellow Emperor was on the throne, there were 81 Chi brothers, claiming to be the descendants of the divine belt. These 81 people are all animal body and human face, copper head and iron forehead, do not contain grains, only eat river rocks.

To this end, the Yellow Emperor worried Chung Chung, day and night hope that there will be a wise man to assist him, in order to destroy Chi You. One night, he dreamed that the wind blew away the world's dust and dirt. Then dreamed of a man holding a thousand crossbow to drive sheep tens of thousands of groups. When he woke up, his heart felt strange. He thought to himself, "Wind is a command and the main thing; dirt is the dissolution of the earth and the clearing of it; is there anyone in the world with the name of Wind and the name of Hou? Thousands of crossbows, is the hope for can cause far, drive sheep tens of thousands of flocks, is the shepherd for good, is there surnamed force name pastoral people not? So he sent his men to search for these two people all over the world. They found the Wind Queen at the corner of the sea and the Li Mu at the edge of the river. The Yellow Emperor took the wind queen as the phase, the force pastor as the general, began to attack Chi You. In the Zhuo Lu countryside, the two armies set up a battle.

Later, there is Shennong after Yugang and the Yellow Emperor to fight for the world. Yellow Emperor with Zhou bird osprey, eagle trembling as a banner, to bear black tiger and leopard as a precursor, and Yu Gang war in the version of the spring field. After three battles, he defeated Yukang. Later, he led his troops and horses to conquer the vassals who refused to obey him. After 52 battles, the world was unified. The Yellow Emperor then divided the states and fields, made rituals and music, and educated the people. At the same time, he also invented a variety of instruments to facilitate daily use. Among them, Minister Cao Hu invented the upper garment, Bo Yu made the lower garment, and Yu Zai made the shoes. From then on, the people no longer wore animal skin and tree bark. Huang Di also according to the floating leaves floating on the water as the reason for the boat, **** drums and with the boat bow on the water. And according to the reasoning of the turn of the canopy invented the car auxiliary, facilitating transportation. Huang Yong father invented the spring, Huang Di then made the kettle cauldron, so that the people can steam rice cooking porridge.

He also determined the names of all things in the world, and divided the stars into 28 quarters.

One day, the Yellow Emperor was on the Luo River, and the ministers to enjoy the scenery; suddenly saw a big bird holding Bian Tu, put in front of him, the Yellow Emperor hastened to worship down. Look at the bird, the shape of a crane, chicken head, swallow beak, turtle neck, dragon shape, parallel wings, fish tail, five colors are available. The characters in the picture are six words of prudence and virtue, benevolence and righteousness, benevolence and wisdom. The Yellow Emperor had never seen this bird before, so he went to ask Tian Lao. Tian Lao told him that the male of this bird is called phoenix, the female is called phoenix. In the morning it is called Dengchen, in the daytime it is called Shangxiang, in the evening it is called Quchang, and in the night it is called Baochang. The phoenix is a sign of peace in the world. It is a sign of great auspiciousness. Later, the Yellow Emperor dreamed that two dragons came out of the Yellow River holding a white picture and offered it to him. Huang Di was puzzled and came to ask Tian Lao again. Tian Lao replied that it was the omen of the River Map and Luo Book coming out. So the Yellow Emperor traveled with Tian Lao and others between the river and the Luo River, sank his biscuits in the river, killed three animals and fasted. At first, it was foggy for three days. After that, there were seven days and seven nights of heavy rain. Then there was a yellow dragon holding the map from the river, the yellow emperor kneeling to receive it. He saw the five colors on the map, the white map, the blue leaf and the Zhu text, which was the river map and the book of Luo. So the Yellow Emperor began to tour the world, Zen Taishan. He heard that there is an immortal named Guangchengzi in Kongdong Mountain, so he went to ask him for advice. Guang Cheng Zi said: "Since you ruled the world, the clouds do not gather but rain, and the grass and trees do not wither but fade. The sun and the moon are more and more lacking in light. And the sycophant's heart was able to become the Way, where do you deserve me to talk to you about the Supreme Way?" When the Yellow Emperor returned, he no longer cared to inquire about political affairs. He built himself a hut, set a mat inside, and reflected there alone for three months. And then he went to Guangchengzi to ask questions. At that time, Guang Cheng Zi was lying with his head facing south, and the Yellow Emperor knelt down and walked to him, asking him how to achieve longevity. Guang Cheng Zi stood up and said, "This is a very good question!" Then he told him the essence of the Tao: "The essence of the Tao is to steal in the dark, and the extreme of the Tao is to be dim and silent. Ignoring and listening to nothing, I hold my spirit in silence. The form will be self-correct, must be quiet, must be clear; no labor make-up form, no shake make-up essence, can be long-lived. Eyes without seeing, ears without hearing, heart without knowing, so, God form unity, can be long life." After saying this, Guang Cheng Zi gave him a volume of Nature Scriptures.
After asking Guangchengzi, the Yellow Emperor climbed over Wangwu Mountain to get the Dan scripture. And asked Xuan Nü and Su Nü about the method of cultivation and health. And then, back to Jinyun Hall practice, he picked the first mountain copper, under the Jing Mountain cast nine tripods, tripod just cast, there is a dragon, long whiskers hanging to welcome the yellow emperor into the realm of the immortals. Huang Di immediately mounted the dragon body, flying away. A few petty ministers, who also wanted to follow him to the immortal world, grabbed the dragon's beard in a hurry. As a result, the dragon's whiskers broke and the ministers fell to the ground. It is said that the Dragon's Whisker Grass is what those dragon whiskers turned into."
Seven, Yancheng, Sichuan folk tales of Regulus and Rayon

After the Yellow Emperor won the world, he married the virtuous and capable Xiling Rayon Zu as his wife, and the two toured the world, teaching people agriculture and mulberry, Rayon Zu unfortunately died on the way. So Rayon was worshipped as the "first silkworm" and the "god of the road" by later generations.
The Legend of the Yellow Emperor and his concubine
Legend has it that one spring, a young girl was raising silkworms in a mulberry orchard when she came across the Yellow Emperor. The Yellow Emperor saw that on her body she was wearing a golden colored garment that shone with a soft, gentle yellow light, and on the ground there was a pile of silkworm cocoons.

Huang Di heard, remembering that people are still living in the summer leaves, winter wear animal skins, year-round clothing life, feel that this is a big invention, can let the people wear clothes to protect the cold. He married the maiden and asked her to teach the hundred officials and the people the techniques of raising silkworms. The young woman was the Yellow Emperor's consort, Rayon, who was also in her thirties at the time.
After the Yellow Emperor appointed Rayon Zu as his consort, Rayon Zu organized a large number of women to go up to the mountains to raise mulberry silkworms and weave silk. But soon encountered a big problem, a lot of silkworms, cocoons also produced a lot, but the silk and silk weaving but there are difficulties. At this time, the group of women in a short, dark skin, ugly face of the woman invented the spinning wheel and weaving silk loom. When the Yellow Emperor learned of this invention, he praised her greatly and asked her to teach her skills to the crowd. Later, under the arrangement of Rayon, Huang Di married this ugly woman as his second consort, who was honored as ugly woman by later generations.
