Collation notes
471
Under the two Han and Jin it belonged to Jingzhao. Wen Dacheng collates: "The Han Treatise 〈juan 28a〉 states that it belonged to 'Left Fengyi.'"
472
[] [] 西西 西 []
Zhang: All editions read "[Jingfu]" instead of "Zhang." Wen Dacheng collates: "'[Jingfu]' should be 'Zhang.' The Universal Gazetteer: 〈juan 51, Yong Province〉 During Taihe of the Later Wei, Zhang County was split off from Wannian. Commentary on the Water Classic: 〈juan 19, Wei River section〉 The Wei River again flowed east past the west of Zhang County—likely a relocation of Zhang from Longxi.'" Yang Shoujing agrees. Note: "Zhang of Longxi" also appears in Volume 18 of the Wei River section as "Zhang." The character "[Jingfu]" is a graphic corruption of "Zhang"; corrected herein.
473
Meiyang: Under Wugong Commandery below, "Meiyang" also appears, duplicating this entry. The note on Meiyang under Wugong Commandery reads: "Under the Former and Later Han and under Jin it belonged to Fufeng; in the seventh year of Zhenjun the commandery was abolished and the county was placed there; later it belonged here." In the eleventh year of Taihe Wugong Commandery was established; this county then belonged to Wugong, so Fufeng should not also list "Meiyang." Since among Fufeng's counties only Meiyang lacks a note, "Meiyang" here is likely a spurious insertion. Yet removing it leaves one of five counties unaccounted for; either another county dropped out, or an original note explaining the duplication was lost in transmission.
474
耀
It had Cicheng Mountain. Wen Dacheng collates: "Taiping Imperial Reader 〈juan 44, page 209〉 cites the Record of Commanderies and Counties of the Four Barbarians: 'Jierui Mountain lies ten li northeast of Yunyang County; also called Ci'e Mountain; popularly known as Cuo'e Mountain.' The character 'cheng' is likely 'e'—similar forms caused the error." The Universal Gazetteer entry on Jierui Mountain in Yunyang County, Yaozhou, volume 31, matches the Imperial Reader but adds: "Wang Bao's Record of Yunyang Palace: east of the city is Ci'e Mountain; locals today call it Cuo'e Mountain."
475
西
Nanyou: All editions read "Tian" instead of "You." Wen Dacheng collates: "'Tian' should be 'You.' Gazetteer of the Yuanhe Era 〈juan 2, Long Province〉 Under Nanyou County: 'Emperor Xiaoming of the Later Wei, at the mouth of You Valley southwest of the county, 〈Wen's citation omits the character "mouth"〉 established it.' Sui Treatise 〈juan 29, Fufeng Commandery〉 also has 'Nanyou.'" Commentary on the Water Classic, volume 17, upper Wei River section: "flowing past south of Nanyou County." Yang's commentary: "Zhu Mouwei mistakenly wrote 'tian' for 'you,' matching all editions; Zhao and Dai corrected it to 'you.'" He also notes: "Biography of Zhao Chang in the Zhou History 〈juan 33〉, the two Tang geographical treatises 〈Old Tang History volume 38; New Tang History volume 37, Treatise on Geography 1, Long Province〉 Universal Gazetteer 〈juan 32, Long Province〉 all have 'You,' whereas the Comprehensive Institutions 〈juan 173, Long Province〉 reads 'Tian.'" The character 'Tian' is corrupt; corrected herein.
476
Meiyang: under the Former and Later Han and Jin it belonged to Fufeng; in the seventh year of Zhenjun a commandery was abolished and the county placed there; later it belonged here. Note: the note on Wugong Commandery above says: "Established in the eleventh year of Taihe when detached from Fufeng." Thus before the eleventh year of Taihe Meiyang still belonged to Fufeng. The phrase here, "in the seventh year of Zhenjun the commandery was abolished and it was assigned there"—which commandery was abolished? And to which commandery was it "assigned there"? Text is likely missing after "under the Former and Later Han and Jin it belonged to Fufeng."
477
西
Meiyuan Shrine. Wen Dacheng collates: "'Meiyuan' is likely 'Jiang Yuan'—similar forms caused the error. Commentary on the Water Classic: 〈juan 18, middle Wei River section〉 Northeast of the old city of Li County is the shrine of Jiang Yuan. Gazetteer of the Yuanhe Era: 〈juan 2, Jingzhao, lower section, Wugong〉 The shrine lies twenty-two li southwest of Wugong County." Yang's commentary under this Wei River entry cites the Treatise on Terrain as "Shrine of Jiang Yuan," without further comment.
478
西 西 西西 西 西西 西
Moxi: All editions read "Han" instead of "Mo." Wen Dacheng notes: "Sui Treatise 〈juan 29, Jingzhao Commandery, Shangyi County〉 writes 'Moxi.' Universal Gazetteer: (idiomatic). 〈juan 31, Qianzhou, Yongshou County〉 'Mogu River originates at Gaoquan Mountain, 〈Middle passage omitted.〉 Later Wei established a county west of the river, and so named it Moxi.' This character 'Han' should be an error for 'Mo.'" Yang Shoujing's Textual Commentary on the Book of Sui Geography Treatise, juan 1, under Jingzhao's Shangyi County entry "there is old Moxi County," says: "Examining Jiang Yuezhi's biography in the Book of Wei, 〈juan 71〉 in Emperor Xuanwu's time Shi Sun Tianyu was enfeoffed as Baron of Moxi, so writing 'Moxi' should be correct." Note: this county also appears in the Universal Gazetteer, juan 31, under Haozhi in Qianzhou, also written "Moxi." The character "Han" is corrupt and is corrected here.
479
西 綿
There was Yuting. Commentary on the Water Classic, juan 17, Wei River section 1, says: "The Wei River again goes southeast, leaving west of Qiaoting." Yang's commentary says: "Note: the Treatise on Terrain has 'Yuting' at Mianzhu in Lueyang Commandery; judging by its location, it is this pavilion, but it differs from the 'Qiao' written here. According to the commentary below, Dongting Water 'is also called Qiao Water'; the pavilion was named from the water, so writing 'Qiao' is correct. It is east of present Qinzhou."
480
西
In Taihe 12 it became Quzhou. Yang Shoujing notes: "Quzhou cannot be verified; the Comprehensive Gazetteer of the Realm 〈juan 277, Jiezhou 2, entry on the old city of Qiuchi〉 cites this as 'Liangzhou,' but that also cannot be verified. Note: the Book of Wei biography of the Di 〈juan 101, supplement〉 At the time of Liu Yilong, Yang Xiannang had already been named Governor of Qin and Liang and King of Southern Qin. At that time Nanzheng's Liang Province was still in Song hands; by the twelfth year of Taihe it still belonged to Qi. This was changed to Liang Province perhaps because the Yang family already held the Qin and Liang governorships. Thereafter Xiahou Daoqian surrendered Nanzheng to Wei, so this place became Southern Qinzhou, while Liangzhou at Nanzheng remained as before; later Southern Liangzhou was also established in Baxi, which fits the circumstances."
481
Xiucheng Commandery: all editions read "wu" for "cheng." Wen and Yang both cite the Sui Treatise 〈juan 29, Shunzheng Commandery〉 It is written "Xiucheng." The Textual Commentary on the Sui Treatise says: "Commentary on the Water Classic: 〈juan 20, Yang Water section〉 The Han River ran southeast along the south side of Xiucheng Road. See also the Biography of Zhao Chang in the Zhou History: 〈juan 33〉 Early in Emperor Shizu's reign, Qiu Zhougong of Fengzhou and others rebelled and besieged Guangye and Xiucheng commanderies. See also the Biography of Du Guo 〈juan 39〉 At the beginning of Emperor Shizu's reign, he became Administrator of Xiucheng Commandery. Accordingly, the Treatise on Terrain is wrong in writing 'Xiuwu.'" Note: Yang's explanation is correct, and it is corrected here.
482
[] []
Baishu: all editions write "bai" as the non-character "[grain-sun]," while the Bureau edition writes "he." Yang Shoujing notes: "The Book of Zhou biography of the Di 〈juan 49〉 writes 'Baishu,' and the Sui Treatise under Xiucheng County is the same. This 'he' is an error for 'bai.'" Note: "he" was probably an editorial conjecture; "[grain-sun]" is a graphic corruption of "bai," and it is corrected here.
483
Luocong Commandery: all editions read "ju" for "cong." Wen Dacheng notes: "Sui Treatise 〈juan 29, Shunzheng Commandery, Mingshui County〉 writes 'Luocong'; the Gazetteer of the Yuanhe Era 〈juan 22, Xingzhou〉 under Mingshui County says: 'In Later Wei, Emperor Xuanwu established Luocong Commandery here, taking its name from Luocong Mountain.'" Yang's collation cites the Sui Treatise as agreeing, saying: "'Cong' is also written 'cong' with doubled grass; in the two characters 'luo ju,' both have lost the grass radical." Note: Comprehensive Institutions, juan 176, under Mingshui County in Xingzhou, also writes "Luocong," and the Book of Sui, juan 74, biography of Yan Rong, enfeoffs him as "Duke of Luocong Commandery." "Luo" and "luo" are homophonous and interchangeable; for "ju," as Yang says, the grass radical is missing. The Sui Treatise is followed here in changing it to "cong."
484
西
Zhenshi Mountain. Wen Dacheng notes: "'Zhen' should be written 'Xing.' Universal Gazetteer, (idiomatic). 〈juan 138, Yangzhou〉 Xingshi Mountain lies forty li northwest of Xingdao County. 〈Passage omitted below.〉 Gazetteer of the Yuanhe Era, (idiomatic). 〈juan 22, Xingyuan Prefecture, Yangzhou〉 Xingshi Mountain lies twenty li north of Xingdao County. The following omits the Commentary on the Water Classic, 〈juan 27, Mian River section〉 120 li north of Lesser Chenggu City there is Xingshi Slope."
485
Wuzhi: all editions read "di" for "shi." Wen Dacheng notes: "The Treatise on Commanderies and States 〈Fascicle 5, Anding Commandery〉 writes 'Wuzhi.'" Note: Hanshu, juan 28B, Geography Treatise, under Anding Commandery, has "Wuzhi"; Yan's note says: "Zhi is pronounced zhi." This book, juan 45, Liang Ying's appended biography under Wei Lang, says Liang Songzun was enfeoffed as "Founding Baron of Wuzhi County." Here the character "di" is a graphically similar corruption of "shi," and it is corrected here.
486
Jingyang: under the Former Han it belonged to Anding; under the Later Han and Jin it was abolished and belonged here; later it was restored. Note: as for the phrase "under the Later Han and Jin it was abolished and belonged here," it is unclear which commandery it belonged to, and since it says "abolished," it should have been "merged into" or "entered" another county; there is no such thing as "belonged." It is suspected that the character "belonged" belongs after "later restored," and that the original read: "Under the Later Han and Jin it was abolished; later it was restored and belonged here." This matches the cases below of Fuyi and of Yuande, Sanshui, and Gaoping counties in Xinping Commandery.

Zuju: under the Former Han it belonged here; it was abolished; later it was restored and belonged to Wuwei. The Palace Edition textual commentary says: "Zuju is Zuli County of the Former and Later Han; earlier it belonged to Anding, and later it belonged to Wuwei. In this note, after 'under the Former Han it belonged' there seem to be two missing characters, 'Anding'; the character 'abolished' is extraneous; and in 'Later Han' the character 'Han' has also been corrupted into 'restored.'" Note: without the two characters "Anding," it would seem that the Former Han already had Longdong Commandery and that Zuli belonged to it; would that not be a great error? The textual commentary is right that the two characters "Anding" are missing. But in the phrase "it was abolished, later restored, and belonged to Wuwei," "later restored" refers to restoration under the Later Han; between the two Han dynasties the county may once have been abolished, and Wei Shou had some separate basis, so it is not necessarily redundant or corrupt.
488
Chungu: under the Former Han it belonged to Beidi; under the Later Han and Jin it belonged to Anding; later it belonged here. All editions read "jiao" for "gu," "Shancheng" for "Beidi," and lack the character "belonged" at the end of the sentence. Yang Shoujing notes: "The county was called Chungu under the Former Han and belonged to Beidi; the Continuation of the Han Treatise 〈Treatise on Commanderies and Kingdoms 5, Liang Province, Anding Commandery〉, Jin Treatise 〈juan 14, Yongzhou, Fengyi Commandery〉 write 'gu' as 'gu.' Here 'gu' was mistakenly made 'jiao,' 'Beidi' was mistakenly made 'Shancheng,' and the character 'belonged' is missing after 'later.'" Note: Yang's explanation is correct, and it is emended and supplemented accordingly.

There was [missing character]guyuan Pavilion. Note: Universal Gazetteer, juan 34, under Yilu County in Binzhou, says: "Chungu Plain was also called Qianshui Plain." Above "gu" there should be the character "chun." "Pavilion" should be read with what precedes it, and there may also be missing text above.

Dongpan: Wen Dacheng notes: "It should be written 'Dongyinpan.'" There is no explanation. Note: Gazetteer of the Yuanhe Era, juan 3, under Yilu County in Binzhou, says "Later Wei made it Dongyinpan County"; Universal Gazetteer, juan 34, under Yilu County, citing Zhou ditu ji, says "In Later Wei, Xiaoming Xiping 2, Quail-Beak County was divided to establish Dongyinpan County." Thus in this treatise, below "Dong" there should be the character "yin."

There was Wating. All editions read "fan" for "wa." Note: Commentary on the Water Classic, juan 17, Wei River section 1, says: Long Water "comes northeast out of Long Mountain; its water flows west, and on the right passes south of Wating. When Wei Xiao heard that Lueyang had fallen, he sent Niu Han to guard Wating; this is that pavilion. Another stream also emerges from Long Mountain, flows southeast, passes north of Wating, and then southwest combines into one stream, called Wating Creek." In Yang's commentary, Xiong Huizhen, based on the passage cited above, says that this treatise's "fan" is a corruption of "wa." Gazetteer of the Yuanhe Era, juan 3, under Pinggao County in Jingzhou, and juan 39, under Longcheng County in Qinzhou, both have "old Wating Pass"; Universal Gazetteer, juan 33, under Pinggao County in Yuanzhou, agrees with the Gazetteer of the Yuanhe Era. Wen's collation likewise says: "'Fanting' is a corruption of 'Wating.'" It is corrected here.

Jingyang: Wen Dacheng notes: "Below 'Jingyang' the character 'cheng' is missing. Gazetteer of the Yuanhe Era: 〈juan 3, Yuanzhou〉 The old city of Jingyang is forty li west of Pingyang County."

Hezhou had Fuqian 〈two characters missing〉 Qian's Notes on Discrepancies, juan 30, says: "Note: Qifu Guoren once called himself Governor of Hezhou, so it should say 'established by Qifu Gangui.' 'You' is probably a corruption of 'qi.'"
494
Its seat was Baohan. All editions read "Baozhi" for "Baohan." Wen and Yang both say that "Baozhi" is a corruption of "Baohan." Yang Shoujing notes: "Gazetteer of the Yuanhe Era: 〈juan 39〉 Present Hezhou is Baohan County of Han Jincheng Commandery. It also says: in Taihe 16, Baohan Garrison was changed into Hezhou. Thus Later Wei's Hezhou was seated at Baohan City. Here 'Baozhi' is an error for 'Baohan,' and the character 'cheng' is also missing." Note: "Baozhi" is clearly corrupt, and it is corrected here. Below there should also be the character "cheng," but this pattern appears often elsewhere, so none are supplied here.
495
Fourteen counties. Note: totaling the counties governed by the commanderies gives only eleven; the character "four" must be corrupt.

In Later Han Jianwu 13, [missing character] Longxi. In the Baina edition, the missing character is written as "[blank space]," which is not a character. The various editions leave a blank or annotate it with the character "missing." Wen Dacheng notes: "According to the Gazetteer of the Yuanhe Era 〈juan 39, Lanzhou〉 it should be the two characters 'merged into.'" Yang's collation also cites the Gazetteer of the Yuanhe Era, saying "this is a missing character 'merged'." Note: what is missing is only one character, so Yang's explanation is probably right, but it does not resemble the corrupt character in the Baina edition; the blank of the various editions is followed here.
497
Tanzhou: Wen Dacheng notes: "The Sui Treatise 〈juan 39, under Baohan Commandery〉 writes 'Tanchuan.' Examining the Commentary on the Water Classic: 〈juan 2, River Water section 2〉 'The Tao River again goes north out of Menxia, passing through Dongli Stream 〈Dai's edition writes "Dongli" as "Weijue"; Wen used Zhao's edition,〉 and Tanchuan Water flows into it.' Probably the county was named after the river." Yang's collation is the same.

Nan'anyang Commandery. Qian's Notes on Discrepancies, juan 30, says: "This character 'yang' is suspected to be redundant. Sui Treatise: 〈juan 29, Longxi Commandery〉 Longxi County was formerly called Neitao 〈that is, Zhongtao〉, and Nan'an Commandery was established." Note: Gazetteer of the Yuanhe Era, juan 39, under Longxi County in Weizhou, says: "It was originally Yuandao County of Han, belonged to Tianshui Commandery, and at the end of Later Han Nan'an Commandery was established here." Jin shu, juan 14, has Nan'an Commandery in Qinzhou, governing the three counties Yuandao, Xinxing, and Zhongtao. "Yuan" is pronounced "huan." Now this Nan'anyang Commandery governs Huandao and Zhongtao counties, so the commandery must follow the old Han and Jin establishment. Why would the character "yang" suddenly be added? As Qian says, it should be redundant text.
499
Yisheng. Yang Shoujing notes: "In Wuwei Commandery under the two Han, Wei, and Jin there was in each case 'Xuanwei County'; this text writes 'Yisheng,' an error caused by graphic similarity."

Lindu Commandery. In the various editions, below "du" there is a note saying that one version writes "she." Yang Shoujing notes: "Universal Gazetteer: 〈juan 152, Liangzhou〉 'In Later Wei, during Taihe, Linsong Commandery was established; its old city is below Linsong Mountain.' Thus 'du' and 'she' are both errors for the character 'song.'" Note: Book of Sui, juan 39, under Zhangye County in Zhangye Commandery, says: "There was also Linsong County, abolished under Later Zhou; there were Mount Ganjun and Mount Linsong." Jin shu, juan 14, Geography Treatise 1, the postscript to Liangzhou, says: "Zhang Tianxi also separately established Linsong Commandery." Thus Wei must have followed the old name from Former Liang. "Du" and "she" are both corruptions of "song."
501
Xuci. Below it, the various editions have a note saying: "Originally written 'Cuosha,' also written 'Yici.'" Jin shu, juan 14, Geography Treatise 1, under Wuwei Commandery in Liangzhou, writes "Yici." Qian's Notes on Discrepancies, juan 19, says: "It should be written 'Xuci'; in Han clerical script the two graphs 'xu' and 'ji' are confused, so it was corrupted into 'yi.'" Note: Hanshu, juan 28B, Geography Treatise 2, and the Continuation of the Han Treatise on Commanderies and States 5 under Wuwei Commandery both write "Xuci," so the transmitted text of this treatise is not wrong.

Taicheng. Wen Dacheng notes: "The commentary to the Comprehensive Mirror cites it as 'Zhicheng.'"

In Taihe 11 it was established by dividing off Huashan, Chengcheng, and Baishui from Qinzhou. Note: the three commanderies including Huashan should originally have belonged to "Taizhou," whose seat was at Puban; "Tai" was corrupted into "Qin." See note [39] below.
504
Tongguan. All editions read "shi" for "tong." Wen's collation cites the Gazetteer of the Yuanhe Era, juan 2, under Huayin in Huazhou, in the entry "Tongguan," and Yang's collation cites Du's note to Zuo Tradition, Duke Wen 13, in the passage "Taolin is at Tongguan east of Huayin County," proving that this "Shiguan" is a corruption of "Tongguan." Note: when passes and barriers under Huayin are listed, there is no reason not to list "Tongguan"; nor is "Tongguan" known to have the alternate name "Shiguan." It must be a corruption caused by graphic similarity, and it is corrected here.

In Yanxing 2 it became Sanxian Garrison. In the Baina edition, "zhen" is written as "[damaged graph]"; in the Southern edition and the editions below it, below "xian" there is a marginal note with the character "doubt." Wen Dacheng notes: "According to the Gazetteer of the Yuanhe Era 〈juan 3, Ningzhou preface〉 it should be written 'Sanxian Garrison.'" Note: the Gazetteer of the Yuanhe Era says "in Later Wei, Yanxing 2, it became Sanxian Garrison" and so on, which is quoting this treatise. It should be that the character "zhen" was damaged; later people added the marginal note "doubt," which combined with the surviving strokes and was corrupted into "[damaged graph]"; other editions simply annotate the character "doubt." Here it is changed to "zhen" on the basis of the Gazetteer of the Yuanhe Era.

Guangwu: under the Former Han it belonged to Taiyuan; under the Later Han and Jin it belonged to Yanmen; later it belonged here. Wen Dacheng notes: "This note already appears in the preceding juan under Guangwu County of Yanmen Commandery." He also cites the commentary to the Comprehensive Mirror to show that this note is wrong. Note: Guangwu in Yanmen is in present Daixian, Shanxi; this Guangwu is in present Yan'an, Shaanxi, a great distance away. Book of Sui, juan 29, under Fenglin County in Yan'an Commandery, says: "Later Wei established it, calling it 'Guangwu,' along with Piancheng Commandery." Gazetteer of the Yuanhe Era, juan 3, under Fenglin County in Yanzhou, says: "It was originally the territory of Han Gaonu County; Emperor Xiaowen of Later Wei established Guangwu County, belonging to Piancheng Commandery." It has nothing to do with Guangwu in Yanmen, so this note is wrong.

Taizhou: established as Yongzhou in Shenque 1, changed in Yanhe 1, abolished during Taihe, restored at the beginning of Tianping, and later fell. All editions read "Qin" for "Tai." Qian's Notes on Discrepancies, juan 30, says: "〈upper section omitted〉 In Yanhe 1, Yongzhou was changed to Qinzhou; at that time Helian Ding had just been pacified and Qinzhou had first entered the registers, so how could there be reason to establish Qinzhou again? I suspected this for several years. Later, reading the Treatise on Food and Money 〈juan 110〉, it says: the nine provinces Bing, Si, Fen, Jian, Jin, Tai, Shan, Eastern Yong, and Southern Fen; The Treatise on Spiritual Signs: 〈juan 110〉 in Tianping 4, a well in Taizhou overflowed; in Taihe 2, Taizhou presented a five-colored dog; The Biography of Xue Bian: 〈juan 42〉 posthumously appointed Commander-in-Chief of military affairs in the three provinces Ji, Ding, and Tai; The Annals of the Deposed Emperor: 〈juan 12〉 Moqi Pubo, Inspector of Taizhou; Also the Biography of Modolou Daiwen in the Book of Qi: 〈juan 19〉 he remained Grand Commander-in-Chief of the five provinces Fen, Shan, Eastern Yong, Jin, and Tai; The Biography of Xue Duan in the Book of Zhou: 〈juan 35〉 his great-grandfather Jin was Inspector of Taizhou; The Biography of Hou Zhi: 〈juan 29〉 his father Xin was Inspector of Taizhou. The histories frequently mention Taizhou, but it is absent from the Treatise on Terrain. I then realized that the Qinzhou at Puban must be a corruption of 'Taizhou'; the graphs are involved with each other, and readers of the histories have been unable to correct it for a long time." Wen Dacheng notes: "The Book of Northern History, biographies of the Wei imperial clan, 〈juan 15, biography of Zun, Prince of Changshan〉 Zan's younger brother Shu, in Xiaowen's time, was Administrator of Hedong, and a song about him said: 'Taizhou and Hedong; the loom's beam replaces the pestle.' Written together with the subordinate Hedong Commandery below, this is even clearer." Yang Shoujing notes: "The epitaph of Duke Yuan, Sui Chamberlain for the Imperial Stud, says: great-grandfather Zhong was Inspector of Xiangzhou and Taizhou. 'Tai' and 'Tai' are often used interchangeably, and this is also evidence that Later Wei had a Taizhou." Also, Collected Explanations of Epitaphs has the epitaph of Suzong's chonghua Lu Lingyuan 〈plate 37〉, It says: "Ancestor Yuan; his wife was Lady Li; her father Xiaobo was General Who Pacifies the West and Inspector of Taizhou." The postscript to this inscription in Collected Explanations takes the Book of Wei biography of Li Xiaobo 〈juan 53〉 It is written "Qinzhou"; the biography is wrong and the treatise is correct. Now, among the passages Qian cites, some may indeed have "Qin" corrupted into "Tai," such as Moqi Pubo, Inspector of Taizhou in the Annals of the Deposed Emperor, 〈see juan 11 collation note [12]〉 but the conclusion is credible. The Yuan and Lu inscriptions are stone inscriptions from the time and provide firm evidence. The Yuan inscription writes "Tai" as "tai," and this is also seen in other historical works and inscriptions. This book's juan 44, biography of Xue Yezhu, the Northern Qi History juan 17 biography of Hulü Jin and juan 20 biography of Xue Xiuyi, the Wen guan ci lin juan 622 edict of Emperor Wenxuan of Northern Qi campaigning against Chang'an, and the Shan-you Stone Inscriptions collection juan 26 stele of Cao, former Administrator of Qiao Commandery under Zhou, all write "Taizhou"; judged by geography, the Chang'an campaign edict and Cao stele both clearly point to Puban. "Tai" and "tai" are homophonous and interchangeable; if the original were "Qin," different in both sound and shape, why would historical works and inscriptions all record "Taizhou"? This province should undoubtedly be written "Taizhou." But in Commentary on the Water Classic, juan 4, River Water section, Li's commentary under the Classic phrase "again south passing west of Puban" says: "Wei's Inspector of Qinzhou; when the capital was moved in Taihe, the province was abolished." Thus Yang's commentary explains Li's note by holding that the treatise was not wrong in saying Qinzhou was renamed in Yanhe 1, but merely omitted the later change to Taizhou. Whether it was once named Qinzhou in Yanhe 1 and later changed to Taizhou involves textual verification and is not discussed in detail here. But Li Xiaobo's appointment as Inspector of Taizhou, according to his biography, was in Xing'an 2 〈453〉 Xue Yezhu's service as Inspector of Taizhou was during Heping 〈460-465〉 so at the latest from Yuan Jun's rule down to Yuan Hong's move of the capital in Taihe 18 〈494〉 when the capital was moved, this province was always named Taizhou. When it was reestablished at the end of Wei, "Tai" or "Taizhou" appears repeatedly in the Qi and Zhou histories and in the Northern Qi edict against Chang'an preserved in Wen guan ci lin. This treatise is based on the so-called "Yongxi registers," that is, the provinces and commanderies of the late Northern Wei; even if it had been Qinzhou in Yanhe 1, by the treatise's own rules it should not have failed to mark "Taizhou" and instead reached back to an old name abolished a century earlier. Thus this "Qinzhou" must be a corruption of "Taizhou"; it is not, as Yang says, simply that the treatise and Commentary on the Water Classic both omitted the change to Taizhou. It is corrected here.
508
It oversaw three commanderies: note that below there are only Hedong and Beixiang, two commanderies; the two commanderies oversee seven counties, matching the total, so one commandery is not missing. "Three" should be a corruption of "two."

Abolished in year 8. Notes on Discrepancies by Qian Daxin, juan 30, says: "It should say 'abolished in Taihe 18,' probably because after the move to Luoyang, provinces within the capital region were abolished."
510
Changed in Taihe 11. Notes on Discrepancies by Qian Daxin, juan 30, says it should read "Taihe 18"; the character is wrong. Note: in this treatise, the Luozhou entry's note says: "Taizong established it; in Taihe 17 it was changed to Sizhou." In Taihe 11 Luoyang was still named Luozhou, so this province could not also have been changed to Luozhou; Qian Daxin's explanation is correct.

Gaodong Shrine. Yang Shoujing notes: "The Imperial Readings 〈juan 43, p. 206〉 cites the Biographies of Eminent Men: on Gaocheshan there are a stele and shrine for the Four Hoaryheads, all erected by Emperor Hui of Han. This is the place where Empress Gao of Han sent Zhang Liang to welcome the Four Hoaryheads, and so it was named 'Gaocheshan.' Here 'dong' is an error for 'che.'" The collation by Wen Dacheng is the same, except that he does not state that the citation comes from the Imperial Readings.
512
There was Qingshui. Note: the only large river in the Nanyang area is the "Yu River"; Commentary on the Water Classic, juan 31, Yu River section, says the Yu River "again south passes east of Wancheng." Gazetteer of the Yuanhe Era, juan 21, under Nanyang County and Xinye County in Dengzhou, both have "Yu River," and there is no so-called "Qingshui." Only the Universal Gazetteer, juan 142, under Nanyang County in Dengzhou, citing the Sui Illustrated Classic, has "Qingshui," but the places it flows past, including Dushan, the stele of Shi Dingbo, and Guali Ford, are all the same as in the Yu River section, so it is clearly one river. Although it is possible that "Yu River" was also named "Qingshui," the geographical treatises do not say this, so "Qing" is suspected to be a graphic corruption of "Yu."

There was Nie. The Palace Edition textual commentary says: "Because the county was on the sunny side of Nie River, it was named so. Below 'there was Nie,' there should be the character 'water.'" The collation by Yang Shoujing cites the Tuan River section of the Water Classic: 〈juan 31〉 Nie River "southeast passes west of the old city of Nieyang County. Ying Shao says: it is on the sunny side of Nie River." He also says: "It should be written 'there was Nie River.'"

Beiyu Commandery. Notes on Discrepancies by Qian Daxin, juan 30, says: "'Qing' should be written 'Yu.' The Annals of Suzong 〈juan 9, edict of the eleventh month of Xiaochang 1〉 'Beiyu hangs in danger; Nanyang reports emergency.' The Biography of Yang Dayan: 〈juan 73〉 When sent out as Inspector of Jingzhou, Beiyu Commandery once had a tiger problem, and Dayan grappled with it and captured it." Note: "Beiyu" was named from the Yu River, and Qian Daxin's explanation is correct.

Guo. Notes on Discrepancies by Qian Daxin, juan 30, says: "'Guo' should be written 'Yu'; it is a corruption of the character. The Song Treatise 〈juan 37〉 Hongnong Commandery of Yongzhou lodged its seat at Wulong and governed three counties: Handan, Yu, and Lushi." Note: the Southern Qi History, juan 15, Treatise on Provinces and Commanderies, Hongnong Commandery in Yongzhou, is the same. "Guo" should be a corruption of "Yu."

Yong'an Commandery. Notes on Discrepancies by Qian Daxin, juan 30, says: "Southern Yingzhou governed twelve commanderies; the present printed edition is defective and has lost two. There are also two Yong'an commanderies, each governing different counties, yet they are not distinguished with east, south, west, or north. Six Dynasties displaced commanderies and counties often had duplicate names, but among the several commanderies governed by one province, there have never been two with the same name. Only Southern Guangzhou's two Xiangcheng commanderies and these two Yong'an commanderies are both suspicious."
