What was the original name of Xuanyuan Huangdi?

Xuanyuan Huangdi was originally named Ji Xuanyuan. The original surname was Gongsun, later changed to Ji, so it was called Ji Xuanyuan.

The Yellow Emperor, the first of the five emperors in historical records, is a mythical figure in ancient China. Most Chinese emperors built temples to offer sacrifices to the Yellow Emperor in order to gain the legitimacy of symbolic rule. He is an important symbol of China culture and is called the ancestor of the Chinese nation. According to the documentary evidence, some scholars believe that the intellectuals who started in the late Qing Dynasty stood out from Huang San and the Five Emperors in the legendary era of China and became the ancestors of the Han nationality and even the Chinese nation.

According to legend, the Yellow Emperor ascended the throne in 2698 BC at the age of 20. Accordingly, Huang Di was born in 27 17 BC. According to legend, when the Yellow Emperor was born, he became a perverted god. Not long after birth, I can speak. At the age of 15, I have done everything. In 2697 BC, the Yellow Emperor, who was only 20 years old, succeeded to the throne with the bear.

After Huangdi became a tribal leader, Xiong's forces developed rapidly and formed an independent Huangdi tribe. In the process of developing from Jishui to the east, Huangdi tribe inherited the agricultural production experience since Shennong, developed primitive agriculture to a highly prosperous stage, and made the tribe develop rapidly. Because he invented the mysterious face, he called it Xuanyuan.

In the late period of Emperor Yan Shennong's rule, tribes in the Central Plains attacked each other and many wars broke out. Huangdi took the opportunity to defeat different tribes, and the leaders of other tribes joined in one after another, thus forming a tripartite confrontation between Yandi, Huangdi and Chiyou. Huangdi lives in the Central Plains. Emperor Yan is in the west and lives in the west of Taihang Mountain. Chiyou is the king of Jiuli, living in the east.

Emperor Yan and Chiyou compete for the lower reaches of the Yellow River. Emperor Yan failed and fled north, asking the Yellow Emperor for help. The Yellow Emperor fought against Chiyou nine times in three years, but he didn't win. Finally, the Yellow Emperor gathered on Zhuolu to fight Chiyou, and the battle was very fierce. With the help of generals Hou Feng and Li Mu, the Yellow Emperor finally captured and killed Chiyou, won the victory and unified the tribes in the Central Plains.

Its capital is Zhuolu. After the war, the Yellow Emperor led an army into the Jiuli area, and immediately at the top of Mount Tai, he joined forces with all the tribes in the world to hold a grand meditation ceremony. Suddenly, a big bug and a big cockroach appeared in the sky. They were still yellow in color, so they were called King Earth. When the soil was yellow, they were called Yellow Emperor. The Yellow Emperor was located in 2697 BC. Taoism regards this year as the first year of the Taoist calendar.
