What is the origin of the name "Jiugong Mountain"?
The origin of the name Jiugong Mountain was first seen in the Northern Song Dynasty's "Taiping Magnolia": "Jin 'an Wang Jiu brothers built Jiugong here, hence the name. "That is to say, Chen Bogong, the king of South Chen Jinan, was forced out by the Sui Dynasty. In order to avoid the war, he led nine brothers to build nine palaces here. In the ninth year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty, Huguang Tongzhi also said: "The nine brothers of Jin 'an Wang built nine palaces on this mountain, so they were named after it. "

The saying in Ci Hai is "Nine mountains, hence the name Jiugong". The Jade Emperor Ji Sheng said that "there is Jiu Feng on its mountain from bottom to top" and "the mountain should be the number of ninety-nine peaks in Changsha, Jiujiang and Lushan". "Jiugong Mountain Records" contains: "The palace is surrounded. This mountain is flat and concave, with four peaks and five ridges. " There is also a religious name, "Jade Emperor Jisheng" contains: "In the Tang Dynasty, Zen Master Khufu set up a Dojo here ... Only after nine palaces worship nine truths can they be named after them."
