(1) Of unknown origin, he served as a Grand Medical Doctor (Taiyi Boshi) during the Daye era. He submitted a memorial to draft the *Treatise on the Pathogenesis and Manifestations of Various Diseases* (*Zhubing Yuanhou Lun*), comprising fifty volumes, which comprehensively collected knowledge and is now circulated in the world as Chao's *Pathogenesis* (Chao Shi Bingyuan).
(2) Of unknown origin, he served as an Imperial Physician Attendant (Taiyi Shiyu) during the Daye era, enjoying great fame in his contemporary period and being praised for his divine skill. His diagnostic and therapeutic methods were extraordinary, capable of curing severe and chronic diseases (Chen Du Ji), without adhering strictly to fixed formulas. He expounded upon the *Neijing* to create the *Taisu*, predicting fortune and misfortune (Xiu Jiu). The so-called "Taisu Pulse" (Taisu Mai) of later generations all revere him, yet few have grasped its subtleties.
(3) Renowned for his medical skills in the Jin region, his actual ability was no inferior to that of Chao Yuanyang or Yang Xuancao. Scholars and officials of the time admired him as if he were a deity; patients relied on him, believing that receiving treatment meant life, while rejecting it meant death. His medical practice entirely followed the *Neijing* as its ancestor, and his authored work, *Explanation of the Neijing* (*Neijing Xunjie*), is currently in circulation.
(4) A native of Gaoyang, he extensively studied medical formulas due to his mother's illness, thereby becoming a renowned physician. He served as a Palace Attendant at Ease (Sanqi Shilang) during the Chen dynasty. After Chen fell, Emperor Wen of Sui appointed him as an Assistant Palace Attendant at Ease (Yuankai Sanqi Shilang). In the second year of Emperor Yang's accession, the emperor fell ill and ordered eunuchs to transport him by carriage into a private hall, allowing him to ascend the imperial bed to treat him, achieving remarkable efficacy each time.
(5) A native of Huayuan in Jingzhao, he could recite a thousand characters daily at the age of seven. As he grew older, he enthusiastically discussed the teachings of Zhuangzi and Laozi, and meticulously studied medical formulas. Emperor Wen of Sui conscripted him as a National Master (Guozi Boshi), but he declined the post. Emperor Gaozong of Tang summoned him and appointed him as a Remonstrance Official (Jianyi Dafu). He authored thirty volumes of *Essential Prescriptions Worth a Thousand Gold* (*Qianjin Fang*) and one volume of *Pulse Classic* (*Maiejing*), both of which are currently in circulation.
(6) Serving as Director of the Court of the Imperial Carriages (Taiwu Ling) during the Bao Ying era, he was known as Qixuanzi. He had a deep passion for medical formulas and obtained copies of the *Taisu* and those by Quan Yuanqi from his predecessors. He extensively annotated the *Suwen*, compiling eighty-one chapters into twenty-four volumes. He also authored ten volumes of *Xuanzhu* and three volumes of *Zhaoming Yinzhi*.
(7) His surname was Wei, given name Xun, with the Daoist pseudonym Cizang. He was skilled in medicine and often accompanied by a black dog, distributing medicine to help people. Emperor Xuanzong valued him highly and offered him an official position, which he refused. The world reveres him as the Medicine King (Yaowang).
(8) A native of Taiyuan, he was erudite and literary, possessing elegant talent and demeanor. He deeply loved classic formulas and was proficient in medicine and pharmacy. This record appears in the *History of Tang* (*Tang Shi*).
(9) A native of Luoyang, famous for his medical skills. During the reign of Empress Wu Zetian, he served as an Imperial Physician Attendant (Shiyi Yi). He was particularly adept at treating wind disorders (Feng Ji). Empress Wu ordered him to compile effective prescriptions, to which he replied: There are one hundred and twenty types of wind disorders; during late spring, early summer, and late autumn, employing purgative and draining methods prevents the condition from becoming critical and distressing.
