Collecting information on the Eight Sages of Chaozhou, in addition to their own study and interests, is also convenient for people who want to know more about the history of Chaozhou, and more importantly, it is convenient for young people, even if they have not read the sages, at least they should understand the sages.
Let's start today's topic:
Zhang Kui (Teochew pronounced "Aoi")
Basic information:
Zhang Kui (張夔), male, character Zhiyao, was born in the first year of the Northern Song Dynasty (1068). In the first year of Yu Chonghe (1118), he successively served as a jinshi in Maoming County, Guangdong, Lianzhou Tongju, and Xinzhou Zhizhou.
About where is Zhang Kui? Each has its own sayings, the main ones are:
1. A native of Long (Long) Eye City Of Haiyang County, Chaozhou Prefecture, Guangdong Province during the Song Dynasty (now part of Lianhua Town, Chenghai District, Shantou City), one of the Eight Sages of Chaozhou in the Tang and Song Dynasties. Song Zhenghe was promoted to a priest in the eighth year (1118).
2. The Chronicle of Chaozhou Prefecture contains: Zhang Kui, Rao Pingren, Song Zhenghe Eight Years Dengjinshi, Zai Maoming, but rich bribes, Qian thieves, honest names, Song Gaozong specially gave the Seal Book Award.
1.2 The main reason for this statement is that (Chenghai was once under the jurisdiction of Rao Ping):
3. Meizhou Daily once wrote an article entitled "Father and Son Jinshi Arch: Humanistic Crown Yiyi Shimei Chuanyang" pointed out that "in Dapu County, as early as the Song Dynasty before the establishment of the county, Zhang Kui and Zhang Chang's father and son Jinshi emerged."
4. Meizhou's official material, the Meizhou JinshiLu, has the following statement: "Zhang Kui, Yu Zhiyao, formerly a native of GuangdeXiang, was born in the first year of the Northern Song Dynasty (1068). ”
Why the data of Chaozhou and Meizhou is so different, this can only be left to experts to examine.

In the 24th year of the Hongwu Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty (1391), Zhang Chuangda, a descendant of Zhang Gongyi, moved from Raoping to Gurao in order to escape the war and began to multiply here. During the Qing Dynasty, the Zhang clan built the Zhang Clan Ancestral Hall in Huali Township, with the name of "Hundred Ninja Hall" as the hall name, to enshrine Zhang Kui, Zhang Chuangda and other ancestors of the past.
Chenghai District Longdu Town Qianmei Villagers Committee, the Internet can not find the specific address of the "newspaper hall", interested friends can click to navigate to the village committee for consultation.

In the main hall of the ancestral hall, there is a plaque that reads "Hundred Ninja Hall". Regarding the origin of this name, there is also a moving story in folklore.

A professor at Shantou University, Kui Fu of Changbai Mountain, wrote the five-word poem "Ode to Zhang Kui": "... To realize the Chinese dream, the most important thing is to guard against greed, not to be confused by material desires, and not to teach conscience to be biased...", Zhang Kui is not a Chaoshan Zhang surname, but a common chinese nation, and he is worthy of being the elite of the Chinese nation.
