Emperor Fumian (215–282), courtesy name Jing (静), courtesy name Shi'an (士安), courtesy name Xuanyan (玄晏), was a prominent hermit, scholar, and physician of the Wei and Jin dynasties. He died in the third year (282) of the Western Jin Dynasty at the age of sixty-eight.
The Huangfu clan was a large and stable clan during the Han and Wei dynasties. In the Han Dynasty, the Emperor Fu clan was a high-ranking official for generations and enjoyed Houlu.
Emperor Fusuo of the Sixth Emperor Fu of Emperor Fu was a general of The Liao Dynasty of Han Dynasty; Emperor Fuqi of the Fifth Emperor fu, he was appointed as the Governor of Fufeng; Emperor Fu of Gaozu was the Prince of Yanmen Taishou; and Great-grandfather Emperor Fu Song was appointed to the throne of Taichang.
Beginning with Cao Wei, the Emperor's family path gradually declined. Emperor Fumian's grandfather, Emperor Fu, only made the Baling Order; his father only held up filial piety. He himself was adopted by his uncle since childhood, and his family was poor, so he had to go to the land to grow crops.
Before the age of twenty, Emperor Fumi was not easy to learn, wandering around all day long, and people thought he was a nerd.
However, Emperor Fumi was very filial to his uncle, and whenever there was good food, he always had to honor his uncle first. His uncle Ren was deeply saddened that he did not learn any techniques.
Once, Emperor Fumi sent delicious filial piety to his uncle and mother, and Ren seized the opportunity to persuade him: "The Book of Filial Piety says that using pigs, cattle, and mutton for the elderly to eat every day is still not filial piety, and the real filial piety is to study hard and become a useful person. You're in your twenties now, and not reading books and not asking questions reassures me. "Say sad and cry.
Ren's teachings deeply touched Emperor Fumian, and he began to study angrily from then on, taking his fellow villager Tan Xi as a teacher.
When he went to work in the fields, he also carried books with him, and he grasped the study as soon as he had time.
After diligent and unremitting efforts, he finally "read the words of a hundred families in the classics" and became a well-known university scholar in the government and the public.
Later, he suffered from rheumatism and still kept his hands on the scroll, so that he forgot to sleep and eat. Someone advised him to pay attention to rest and take good care of his body, but he said, "If you hear the Tao, you can die at night." ”
It can really be said that "the prodigal son does not change his head", and later generations often regard him as a model for the late formation of the great instrument.
Emperor Fu was quiet and widowed, and devoted himself to writing, and wrote many poems, gifts, advices, praises, and treatises in his lifetime, including ten volumes of the Imperial Century, six volumes of the Annals, one volume of the Biography of Gao Shi, one volume of the Biography of Yi Shi, six volumes of the Biography of the Spirited Woman, three volumes of Xuan Yan Chun Yu, thirteen volumes of the Yellow Emperor's Three Acupuncture And Moxibustion A and B Classics (referred to as the "Acupuncture Jia Yi Jing"), and two volumes of the "Emperor Fu Mi Cao Qi on Cold Food Scattered Fang".
Unfortunately, most of these books have been lost, and not many have survived to this day, and only the "Biography of Gao Shi" and the "Moxibustion Jia B Sutra" have been completely handed down.
During the Ming and Qing dynasties, many scholars compiled the works of Emperor Fumi, and the compilations that we can see today include "The Century of Emperors", "The Biography of Yi shi", "The Biography of a Spirited Woman", "The Calendar", "The Sayings of Emperor Fu Mi", "The Chronicle of the Emperor's Scriptures" and so on.
Emperor Fumian can also reward the latecomers. Zuo Si was a famous literary scholar in the Western Jin Dynasty, but he was strangely ugly and difficult to socialize with, and people looked down on him.
Zuo Si composed "Three Capitals" and asked people to extend the reputation, but no one paid attention to it.
Zuo Si found Sikong Zhang Hua, who introduced him to Emperor Fumi.
After Reading Zuo Si's "Three Capitals", Emperor Fumi praised Zuo Si's talent and learning, and gladly wrote a preface to it, "Three Capitals" was valued by the world, and Zuo Si's value immediately doubled.
Zhi Yu, Zhang Rail, Niu Zong, and Xi Chun, who studied under Emperor Fu, were all famous courtiers of the Jin Dynasty.
The late Han and Wei and Jin dynasties that Emperor Fumi experienced in his life were extremely turbulent and dark periods in Chinese history.
At that time, seclusion became a social trend, and the motives of hermits to live in seclusion were different: some escaped from reality and tried to take safety; some lived in the mountains and rivers and fields to enjoy the pleasures of nature alone; and some used seclusion to seek high-ranking officials.
Throughout his life, Emperor Fumian lived in seclusion, and was determined to keep the path of poverty and happiness, and to write books and make speeches.
Initially, some people advised Emperor Fu to cultivate his name and make friends in order to obtain an official and a half-post, and he replied in the "Treatise on Xuan Shou", believing that he "lived in the field, and could also enjoy the way of Yao Shun".
The county government summoned him as Shangji Tuan (上計掾) and also as Xiao Lian (孝廉); in the first year of Jing Yuan (260), Sima Zhao, the state of Wei Xiangguo, marched, and he did not respond.
Five years later, Sima Yan assumed the throne of Wei, the emperor, and the other thirty-six celebrities who had originally marched with Emperor Fu Mi "all worshiped the Duke of Riding, or gave the Marquis of Guannei, and entered the imperial court", but Emperor Fu Did not come out.
The villagers persuaded him to answer the order, and he wrote the "Commentary on Persuasion" saying that he should imitate Lao Tzu and "stay in the western suburbs" and Mu Yanyuan "became famous in peace and ugliness".
Emperor Wu of Jin repeatedly issued edicts urging him, but he still resigned with illness.
In the third year of Tai Shi (267), he also raised a virtuous fangzheng, and not only did he not afford it, but instead he wrote to Emperor Wu to borrow books from Sima Yan, who gave him a cart of books.
In the first year of Chengning (275), Emperor Fumian was already sixty years old, and Sima Yan, the emperor of jinwu, once again recruited him as the crown prince Zhongshuzi, and then recruited him as a huilang and summoned shulang; Liu Yi, a lieutenant of the Si Li Colonel, asked for the title of Gong Cao, and Emperor Fumian should not do anything, but still insisted on living in seclusion until his lifetime.
When Emperor Fumi was thirty-three years old, he suffered from paralysis, numbness in his right half of his body, and atrophy in his right foot. He also believed in the alchemist, drank cold food and medicine, and as a result, he was chronically poisoned, and his whole body was dry and hot, and he was in pain.
The torment of various diseases made him have the idea of taking his own life, and he did not die after being persuaded by his uncle and mother.
After that, he began to study the works of ancient famous doctors such as Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing, and put medical classics such as the Yellow Emperor's Inner Classics and the Treatise on Typhoid Fever and Miscellaneous Diseases on the desk.
While diligently reading medical texts, eclectic and eclectic, while practicing on one's own. After a long period of hard work, he accumulated a wealth of medical knowledge, especially proficient in acupuncture, and became a famous acupuncturist.
Huang Fumian synthesized the ancient acupuncture classics and found that "the text is repetitive, and the mistakes are not one".
Therefore, he carried out hard work such as summarizing, deleting complexity, and proofreading, "making the internal conformity, deleting its floating words, removing its repetition, and discussing its essence", and compiled the thirteen volumes of the Acupuncture and Moxibustion A and B Classic, a total of one hundred and twenty-eight articles.
At that time, the Acupuncture and Moxibustion A and B Sutra was copied and recited by people and was highly valued. This work of acupuncture was the first to systematically establish the ancient Chinese acupuncture and moxibustion and promoted the development of Chinese medicine.
To this day, this book is still a must-read book for the study of acupuncture, which is highly respected by the Chinese and foreign medical circles, and Huang Fumian himself is also praised by the medical community as the saint of acupuncture.
Huang Fumian has traveled a long way from being poisoned by the superstitions of alchemists to being an expert in acupuncture, which also shows his spirit of diligence and hard work.
In his later years, he wrote "The Theory of the End" pointed out that people want to live forever and avoid death, in fact, people's life expectancy must end, and no one can escape this natural law. After a person dies, the form of the skeleton turns into mud, and the soul and the yuan qi merge, which is the highest destination.
Before his death, he ordered his sons not to bury him thickly, but to choose a wasteland that did not grow crops, dig a deep pit, and place the body, and only ask him to bury a copy of the "Filial Piety Sutra", and nothing else should be buried with him, indicating that filial piety should always be carried forward. All this reflects that he has both an open-minded mind and a certain scientific spirit.
