Extended data
"Nine sons gave birth to dragons" was not recorded before the Ming Dynasty, and did not appear until the Hongzhi period of the Ming Dynasty.
Legend has it that Emperor Xiaozong of the Ming Dynasty asked the central management to ask the cabinet because he couldn't figure out the name of Jiuzi. At that time, Li Dongyang, a cabinet scholar, received the emperor's "imperial book post" and asked about "the name of Longsheng's nine sons", as if remembering that he had seen it in "miscellaneous books" when he was a teenager. He couldn't answer it at the moment and asked Shura to return. Shura said that he only remembered five or six of them. Then ask Liu Ji of the official department.
Liu Ji said that there is an old book at home that "records this language in writing". When he brought it, he found the name of Jiuzi on it, but he couldn't remember what book it was in, so he couldn't find it. The emperor's inquiry can't be delayed for long. Li Dongyang helpless, so we have to "do as I say" replied:
A dragon gives birth to nine sons without being a dragon, and each has his own merits. A prison cow and a dragon have good music all their lives. Today, the beast carved on Hu Qin's head is his portrait. Yazi is easy to kill all his life. Today, the dragon swallowing mouth on the hilt is his portrait. Laughing wind, I have had a close call in my life, and the beast in this corner of the temple is its portrait. The man who has been singing all his life is the portrait of the animal button on this clock. Sister-in-law, sitting in his life, the lion in the Buddha's seat today is his portrait.
Overlord, a good burden in my life, this monument is a portrait of a beast's foot. Armadillo is a litigator all his life. Today, the lion's head on the prison door is his portrait. After a long time, he was a good writer all his life. The dragons on both sides of this monument are his portraits. Dear, life is easy to swallow, and the head of the animal on the ridge of this temple is its portrait.
Yang Shen's Nine Names is quite different from Li Dongyang's:
First, in the name, he removed the prison cow and ridicule, added gluttony and pepper pictures, and changed the "good-natured" aunt into "good-natured fireworks" aunt Jin.
Second, in the ranking order, he ranked eighth and ninth on the list, and kissing was the first and second.
Thirdly, in the shape of the dragon, physical features such as Lin Bu and kissing are added.
Yang Shen was a famous scholar in Ming Dynasty. "History of the Ming Dynasty" said that he was the first in the Ming Dynasty, and his works were rich, which had a great influence on the intellectual community at that time. Therefore, when people talk about "Nine sons born in a dragon", they all quote Yang, but Li Dongyang, which was earlier than Yang Shen, is unknown.
Influenced by the emperor, Li Dongyang, Yang Shen and others, the story of "Nine sons gave birth to dragons" spread like wildfire and spread widely for a time. And with branches and leaves, it is even more strange. What did you say?/Sorry? "Dragons are chaotic, so they have many ears."
