Mr. Hua Qichang, the sixty-fifth great-grandson of Hua Tuo, once said when he was alive: According to legend, the ancestor of Hua was a nobleman in the Zhou Dynasty and the Song Dynasty. Huazhuang was a fief at that time, and the Han Dynasty belonged to Yan County. Before Huatuo, people with China surname had lived in Huazhuang for a long time. The ancient and modern books on the identification of names point out that the surnames of China people are very consistent: "Congzi's surname, Gongsun's capital in Dai Song, the word Washington, Xiangsong's duke, is China's surname because of self-reliance". Dictionary of ancient and modern place names: "Song Kingdom is in the south of Shangqiu", that is, the area around JiNing Town, Shangqiu County, Henan Province today; However, Huazhuang is only 15 kilometers apart, so it is possible that Huazhuang is the fief of Song State.
2 Hua Tuo's life and death
Legend of Hua Tuo's descendants: Hua Tuo was born in Huazhuang on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month in the third year of the Eastern Han Dynasty (AD 109); In the 13th year of Jian 'an (AD 208), Emperor Xiandi died in Xu (Chang) prison at the age of 100. This is consistent with the legend of Bozhou and Peixian. According to historical research, Hua Tuo's "100-year-old strong appearance" in the History of the Three Kingdoms includes "Cang Shu was sick in Xinjiang, and Taizu sighed: He regretted killing Hua Tuo and made his son die in Xinjiang". From the above, we can be sure that Hua Tuo died before Cang Shu became ill. But when did Cang Shu die? "The Biography of the Three Kingdoms of Chong Wang" records: "In May of the 13th year of Jian 'an (AD 208), the boy Cao Cang was released. "In other words, Hua Tuo's death should be before May 2008. According to Jin Shu Zhai Jingji, "the early emperor had a tumor disease" and "Wang Xuan (Sima Yi) ordered it to be treated", and Jing Di was Sima Shi, who died in the second year of Jacky (AD 255) at the age of 48. We go back to 48 years, that is, the twelfth year of Jian 'an (AD 207). This shows that Hua Tuo is still alive, so Hua Tuo should have died on Jian 'an 13 1 ~ May Jiaxu Day. It is credible that he died on March 3.
