[Anonymous, *Lingnan Jiyao Fang* (Urgent Essential Prescriptions of Lingnan)] Recorded in the *New Book of Tang: Treatise on Literature*, 2 volumes. Lost.
[Jia Dan (courtesy name Dunshi), *Beiji Danfang* (Emergency Single Prescriptions)] Recorded in the *New Book of Tang: Treatise on Literature*, 1 volume. Lost.
According to the biographical sketch in the *New Book of Tang*: Jia Dan, courtesy name Dunshi, was from Nanpi, Cangzhou. During the Tianbao era, he passed the Mingjing examination and was appointed as the magistrate's assistant of Linqing. He submitted memorials discussing state affairs and was subsequently transferred to serve as the Military Commissioner of Taiping and Hedong. Wang Sili appointed him as the Director of the Department of Revenue. He rose through the ranks to become the Prefect of a certain prefecture, governing for nine years with outstanding achievements. He was then summoned to the capital and appointed as the Minister of Ceremonies, concurrently serving as the Commander of the Left and Right Wei Yuan Camps. Soon after, he became the Military Commissioner of Shannan West Circuit. When Liang Chongyi rebelled in the East Circuit, Jia Dan advanced his troops to Gucheng and captured Junzhou. In the third year of Jianzhong, he was transferred to the East Circuit. When Emperor Dezong was in Liangzhou, Jia Dan sent his Sima (Military Advisor) Fan Ze to report matters. After Fan Ze returned, Jia Dan hosted a grand banquet for his generals. Suddenly, an urgent edict arrived, appointing Fan Ze to replace Jia Dan and summoning Jia Dan back to the capital to serve as the Minister of Works. Shortly thereafter, he served as the Guardian of the Eastern Capital. In the ninth year of Zhenyuan, he held the title of Vice Director of the Department of State Affairs and Tong Zhongshu Menxia Pingzhangshi (Chancellor). He was soon enfeoffed as the Duke of Wei. When Emperor Shunzong ascended the throne, he was promoted to Acting Grand Commandant and Vice Director of the Left. At that time, Wang Shuwen and others interfered with government affairs. Jia Dan was troubled by this and repeatedly requested retirement due to illness, but his request was denied. He died at the age of seventy-six. He was posthumously awarded the title of Grand Tutor and given the posthumous name Yuanjing. Jia Dan loved reading and became more diligent in his old age. He was particularly knowledgeable about geography and thoroughly understood various esoteric arts such as Yin-Yang and numerology. His demeanor was magnanimous, marking him as a man of virtue.
[Liu Yuxi, *Chuanxin Fang* (Prescriptions Based on Trust)] Recorded in the *New Book of Tang: Treatise on Literature*, 2 volumes. Lost.
According to the *Biographies of Famous Poets of the Tang Dynasty*: Liu Yuxi, courtesy name Mengde, was from Zhongshan. He passed the Jinshi examination in the ninth year of Zhenyuan and also succeeded in the Boxue Hongci examination. He was skilled in literature. At that time, Wang Shuwen enjoyed imperial favor, and Liu Yuxi associated with him, once praising him as having the capacity of a Chancellor. For major court discussions, Liu Yuxi and Liu Zongyuan were often invited to deliberate in the inner palace regarding the accounts of the Department of Revenue and Salt and Iron. Relying on Wang Shuwen's power, they often slandered others. Censor Dou Qun impeached them for "using unorthodox methods to disrupt governance," and they were dismissed on the same day. When Emperor Xianzong ascended the throne, Wang Shuwen fell from power. Liu Yuxi was demoted to Sima of Langzhou. Langzhou bordered Yelang, where local customs believed in witchcraft and ghosts. During sacrifices, people sang Bamboo Branch songs, accompanied by drums, with lingering and coarse sounds. Liu Yuxi reasoned that Qu Yuan, residing between the Yuan and Xiang rivers, composed the *Nine Songs* for the Chu people to welcome deities. Thus, he composed ten *Bamboo Branch Lyrics* following the melody. The people of Wuling sang them all. Initially, those demoted for associating with Wang Shuwen were not pardoned even upon general amnesty. A Chancellor, pitying his talent and predicament, intended to reinstate him and issued edicts to appoint demoted officials as prefects of distant states. Censors objected. Liu Yuxi had been long downcast and depressed; his writings often contained satirical allegories aimed at influencing powerful ministers, yet his resentment remained unresolved. After a long time, he was recalled to the capital and intended to be appointed as a Lang Official in the Southern Province. However, he wrote the poem "Viewing Flowers and Gentlemen in the Metropolis Garden," which contained sarcastic and indignant language. The authorities disliked it, and he was further demoted to Prefect of Bozhou. Vice Censor Pei Du advised, "Bozhou is inhabited by apes. Moreover, Liu's mother is over eighty years old. Separation may lead to death, which might harm Your Majesty's governance based on filial piety. Please allow him to be transferred to a closer location." Consequently, he was reassigned to Lianzhou. Later, he was transferred to Kuizhou. Subsequently, from Prefect of Hezhou, he entered the capital as Director of Guests. Upon returning to the capital, he visited the Metropolis Garden and recited a poem, stating, "Ten years after my initial demission, I returned to the capital. The Taoist priest had planted peaches, blooming like rosy clouds. Fourteen years later, I came again, not one remains, only rabbit sunflowers and oats swaying in the spring wind." Those in power heard this and largely despised his conduct. Pei Du recommended him as Hanlin Academician. Soon, he was assigned to manage the Eastern Capital, and promoted to Guest of the Crown Prince. During the Huichang era, he was added with the title of Acting Minister of Rites. He died. Liu Yuxi relied on his talent and acted recklessly, harboring inner unrest. As he aged, he became aloof and incompatible with others, finding solace in literature. He excelled in poetry, matching wits frequently with Bai Juyi. He was once hailed as the "Hero of Poetry," saying, "Wherever Lord Liu's poems are, divine beings protect them." He authored forty volumes of collected works, which are currently extant.
[Xue Hongqing, *Bingbu Shouji Fang* (Hand-Collected Prescriptions of the Ministry of War)] Recorded in the *New Book of Tang: Treatise on Literature*, 3 volumes. Note: These are prescriptions transmitted by Li Jiang, Minister of War. Xue Hongqing served as Vice Prefect of Hezhong during the Taihe era. Lost.
[Xue Jinghui, *Gujin Jiyan Fang* (Collected Verified Prescriptions Ancient and Modern)] Recorded in the *New Book of Tang: Treatise on Literature*, 10 volumes. Note: He was Langzhong of the Ministry of Justice during the Yuanhe era and was demoted to Prefect of Daozhou. Lost.
[Cui Yuanliang, *Haishang Jiyan Fang* (Collected Verified Prescriptions from the Sea)] Recorded in the *New Book of Tang: Treatise on Literature*, 10 volumes. Lost.
According to the biographical sketch in the *New Book of Tang*: Cui Xuanliang, courtesy name Hushu, was from Zhaoyi, Cizhou. In the early Zhenyuan era, he passed the Jinshi examination. He served in various regional military staffs. When his father died, he was a guest in Gaoyou and lay on straw matting until the mourning period ended. Due to the damp ground, he contracted Bi syndrome (bi-obstruction disease) and lost interest in official advancement. In the early Yuanhe era, he was summoned as a Censor. He successively served as Deputy Director of the Carriage Department. He was clean, cautious, and distinctive, remaining indifferent to fame. He gradually rose to Prefect of Mizhou and Shezhou. In Shezhou, when horses and cattle gave birth to foals and calves, the government registered their hooves. Former officials exploited this for fraud. Cui Xuanliang burned the registration records and did not inquire further. People living in mountains suffered paying taxes; he ordered that taxes could be paid in money calculated by grain volume, benefiting the people. He served as Prefect of Huzhou and Caozhou, declining the latter appointment. In the fourth year of Taihe, he was transferred from Vice Director of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices to Remonstrance Official. The court esteemed him as a veteran with prestige and appointed him as Regular Attendant-in-Waiting. Whenever promoted, he showed reluctance on his face. When Zheng Zhu framed Song Shenxi, arrests were made hastily, causing panic inside and outside the court. As a remonstrance official, Cui Xuanliang knocked on the door of the Yanying Hall and argued bitterly and repeatedly for hundreds of words. Emperor Wenzong did not understand. Cui Xuanliang placed his tablet on the steps and said, "Mencius said: If everyone says kill him, do not do it; if high officials say kill him, do not do it; if the whole world says kill him, then investigate, and only then execute the law. Now, to kill a commoner, one must consult laws and regulations. How much more so to execute a Chancellor? I speak for Your Majesty's preservation of the law of the world, not for Shenxi." He bowed and wept. The Emperor was moved, and the crowd admired his unyielding nature. From this, he became famous in the court. Soon after, he resigned due to illness and returned to Luoyang. He was summoned as Prefect of Guozhou. He died at sixty-six and was posthumously awarded Minister of Rites. In his later years, Cui Xuanliang favored the quietude of Huang-Lao teachings, so he did not hold office for long. His dying words stated that Shandong scholars preferred nearby burials, all buried near the two capitals, and his clan had never migrated, so he should be buried in Fuyang to honor the principle of returning to one's homeland. His sons obeyed.
[Zheng Zhu, *Yao Fang* (Medicinal Prescriptions)] Recorded in the *New Book of Tang: Treatise on Literature*, 1 volume. Lost.
According to the *New Book of Tang*: Zheng Zhu was from Yicheng, Jiangzhou. Of humble origin, he traveled the rivers and lakes practicing medicine. In the late Taihe era, he rose to Acting Vice Director of the Left of the Department of State Affairs and Military Commissioner of Fengxiang and Longyou. He conspired with Li Xun to assassinate eunuchs. The plot failed, and he was killed.
[Wei Zhou, *Jiyan Duxing Fang* (Collected Verified Independent Prescriptions)] Recorded in the *New Book of Tang: Treatise on Literature*, 12 volumes. Lost.
According to the biography of Wei Dan in the *New Book of Tang*: Wei Dan's son, Wei Yin, obtained office through hereditary privilege and successively served as Registrar of Henan Prefecture. Li Banchuang recommended him to the Heyang staff. Emperor Xuanzong asked the Chancellor Chi, "Does Wei Dan have a son?" Yin was named. The Emperor said, "Give him a good position," and he was appointed as Investigating Censor. After three promotions, he became Langzhong of the Department of Revenue. Lu Jun, Military Commissioner of Taiyuan, recommended Yin as deputy. At that time, the Uyghurs had defeated various tribes and entered the border regions, plundering and killing officials and civilians. Lu Jun sought trust and valued border officials inspecting the frontier. Yin volunteered to go. Starting from Dingxiang, Yanmen, and Wuyuan, cutting off the Wuzhou Pass, he inspected Yunzhong. Within ten days, he completed the inspection, carved inscriptions to admonish the chieftains, reviewed the guards of watchtowers, increased their rations, and forbade officials from using troops to infringe upon barbarian tribes, punishable by death. Thus, the three tribes and six barbarian groups trusted and rejoiced. He was summoned and appointed as Langzhong of the Ministry of Personnel. He served as Prefect of Yongzhou. Returning to the capital, he became Vice Minister of Justice. After a long time, he was appointed as Observation Commissioner of Jiangxi. His governance was simple and easy, and southerners regarded him as a hereditary official. He was promoted to Military Commissioner of Lingnan. When Nanzhao conquered Jiaozhi, he pacified the troops and accumulated supplies, gaining fame. He was added with the titles of Acting Vice Director of the Left of the Department of State Affairs and Tong Zhongshu Menxia Pingzhangshi. He died during the Xiantong era.
[*Yuhu Beiji Fang* (Jade Pot Emergency Prescriptions)] (Recorded in the *Chongwen General Catalog* as *Biejie Yuhu Beiji Dafang*.) Recorded in the *Song History: Treatise on Literature*, 3 volumes (*Chongwen General Catalog* lists 1 volume). Lost.
[Sikong Yu, *Fayan Lu* (Record of Emitting Flames)] Recorded in the *New Book of Tang: Treatise on Literature*, 1 volume. Note: Father of Sikong Tu. Served as Prefect of Shangzhou during the Dazhong era. Lost.
According to the biography of Sikong Tu in the *Old Book of Tang*: Sikong Yu's father, Sikong Yu, was proficient in historical studies. In the early Dazhong era, Lu Hongzheng, Vice Minister of Revenue, commanding Salt and Iron, memorialized Yu to serve as Tax Salt Commissioner for the Anxi Two Pools, acting as Langzhong of the Department of Seals. Previously, salt laws were loose, and many officials violated prohibitions. Yu formulated ten new regulations and memorialized them, which were considered convenient to this day. He entered the capital as Wai-lang of the Department of Gates and was promoted to Langzhong of the Department of Revenue. He died.
[Xu Yong, *Liushi Siwen* (Sixty-Four Questions)] (Recorded in the *Song History: Treatise on Literature* as *Liushi Siwen Fang Miyaofang*. Note: Yong, alternatively written as Yong.) Recorded in the *New Book of Tang: Treatise on Literature*, 1 volume. Lost.
According to the *New Book of Tang: Genealogy of the Imperial Clan*: Li Han, great-grandson of Zhuang Wang of Yong'an, son of Li [name missing], served as Assistant Administrator of Raozhou in the early Zhenyuan era. His maternal family member Gao entered the palace for singing skills. The imperial physician Xu Yong was executed for communicating books. The *Song History: Treatise on Literature* note writes Xu Yong. Could it be this person?
[Qingluozi, *Daoguang Tongyuan Miyao Shu* (Secret Techniques of Daoguang Tongyuan)] (The *Chongwen General Catalog* lacks the five characters "Qingluozi Daoguang" and does not list the author's name.)

[Ye Changwen, *Qixuanzi Yuanhe Jiyong Jing* (Classic of Yuanhe Jiyong by Qixuanzi)] Recorded in the *Song History: Treatise on Literature*, 1 volume. Extant.
Preface by Xu Ji, Retired Minister of Works: During the reign of Emperor Zhaozong, I was a commoner summoned by edict to lecture on the *I Ching* in the forbidden palace. My words shocked the vulgar, and I soon requested to return to the mountains, eating lingzhi and gathering herbs. I took Liang Ziran, a Daoist adept, as a friend of landscape and water. Beyond the alchemical furnace, I extensively studied classical prescriptions, saving lives, numbering thousands annually. During pleasant springs and crisp autumns, I visited many famous mountains. One day, he handed me three chapters of *Qiyuan*, saying, "You eat cooked cheese; you can apply this medicine." Although I respectfully accepted, I did not understand its meaning. Later, fleeing soldiers into Shu, I realized "cooked" referred to Shu. Thus, I administered medicine to treat people, achieving many recoveries. Consequently, no one in Shu died prematurely or unjustly. During the Tongguang era, I followed the King to the capital. My teeth and hair had aged, and I immediately requested retirement, choosing a forest and spring residence in Luoyang. After living there for over a year, I realized "cheese" referred to Luoyang. Obtaining medicine from people in Luoyang, I revived the dead innumerable times. The words of Master White Ox proved true without error. Eating in Shu, eating in Bath. I revered this miracle and wrote it at the beginning of the classic to pass it to future generations.
Postscript by Cheng Yongpei: The *Song History: Treatise on Literature* records one volume of *Qiyuanzi Yuanhe Jiyong Jing*, rarely circulated in the world. Li Shizhen's *Bencao Gangmu* cites medical texts comprehensively but omits this volume. Perhaps he had never seen it? Wang Kentang's *Zhunseng* cited its theories, but subsequent families rarely used its prescriptions. Examining this volume now, it was transmitted from Xu Ji of Yue. Xu Ji was originally a Daoist priest of Siming Mountain, later served in Shu up to Minister. After Shu surrendered to Tang, he settled in Luoyang. Xu Ji cured diseases in both Shu and Luoyu without fail. I accidentally obtained this book, feeling like finding a supreme treasure. That night, the empty room glowed white, which is the light of this book. Holding the prescription to treat illness, recovery was immediate. However, the original text has missing characters, yet the woodblocks remain uncorrected, left for supplementation. I supplemented them based on the original notes of *Qiyuanzi Suwen*. There are still unsupplemented parts due to limited vision and difficult verification. I dare not add personal opinions, leaving the woodblocks for learned gentlemen to review.
Note: During the Qianlong era, Cheng Yongpei published this book in the *Liulizhai Congshu*, without Ye Changwen's preface, titled as written by Wang Bing, Qixuanzi of Tang. It includes Xu Ji's preface, whose claims are exaggerated and hard to believe. However, checking the text, it is definitely not post-Song material, and matches citations in Chen Shi's *San Yin Fang*, confirming it as an ancient book.

[Yao Hezhong, *Yanling Zhibao Fang* (Longevity Precious Treasure Prescriptions)] (Previously written as Dong Yanling Zhibao Fang, revised here according to *Yiwenuelue*. *Chongwen General Catalog* erroneously writes Yao He.) Recorded in the *New Book of Tang: Treatise on Literature*, 10 volumes. Lost.
Qian Tong says: *Yanling Zhibao Fang*, 10 volumes, written by Yao He. According to the *Tang Zhi* and *Song Zhi*, before "Yanling," there are two characters "Zhong Tong." *Tongzhi Lue* deleted the character "Tong," writing Yao Hezhong. Merging "Zhong" into a person's name is incorrect. Later, in the Medical Books Category Five, there is *Baotong Fang*, 1 volume, also written by Yao Hezhong in the *Song Zhi*, inheriting the error of *Tongzhi*.
Note: In the *Tang Zhi*, the characters "Zhong Tong" before "Yanling" exist because the preceding entry is *Yao Hezhong Tongzi Mijue*, 2 volumes, hence these characters were mistakenly added. Qian Tong's claim that "Zhong" was merged into a person's name is wrong. This view is actually incorrect. *Zhenglei Bencao* frequently cites Yao Hezhong's prescriptions.

[Chen Yuan, *Beijing Yaoshu* (Essential Techniques of Beijing)] Recorded in the *New Book of Tang: Treatise on Literature*, 1 volume. Note: Chen Yuan was Vice Prefect of Taiyuan. (*Chongwen General Catalog* lists 2 volumes.) Lost.
*Cefu Yuangui* records: Chen Li, from Jingzhao, came from a medical family. During the reign of Emperor Mingzong of Later Tang, he served as Vice Prefect of Taiyuan. He collected 75 verified prescriptions from his life and 100 methods of preparing medicines, titled *Yaoshu*. He carved them on stones placed to the left of the Taiyuan Prefecture Yamen to show the public. Patients relied on them.
Note: Either "Yuan" or "Li" is erroneous. The *History of the Five Dynasties: Annals of Later Tang Mingzong* states that on August Jiayin of the first year of Tiancheng, Medical Officer Zhang Zhizhong served as Vice Prefect of Taiyuan. No other mention of a Chen surname exists. Could it be a missing text?
