An important belief system in ancient China was the Nine Emperors. The Nine Emperors refer to the nine gods, namely: the Princes of the Great Realm, the Jade Emperor of Taihao, the Green Emperor, the daughter of the village Chunniang, the river god, the lord of the altar of Ah Gong, the five dragon lords, the five dragon monarchs, and the rock mountain Arhats.
The Nine Emperor beliefs are prevalent in the Han and southern Fujian regions, especially Fujian. Every year from the 9th to the 17th day of the eighth lunar month, people will celebrate the birth of the Nine Emperor Masters and hold a grand Nine Emperor Temple Fair. During this period, believers will perform a series of rich activities such as fasting, chanting scriptures, dragon and lion dances, and Taoist sacrifices.
And the Five Emperors of the Middle Ages refer to the five sage emperors who are said to be the first generation of monarchs in Chinese history. They are: Fuxi, Shennong, Yellow Emperor, Xuanyuan, and Yao.
These five emperors have an important place in Chinese legends and historical records. Among them, Fu Xi is the creator of the legend that has the earliest human writing, the Bagua symbol; Shennong was the ancestor of medicine and agriculture, he taught people to grow crops and medicinal herbs; The Yellow Emperor is considered the common ancestor of the Chinese nation, who unified the tribes throughout China and created the cornerstone of Chinese civilization; Xuanyuan is the legendary god of war in ancient China and is revered as a military leader; Yao was the first recorded wise and wise monarch in Chinese history, who promoted many benevolent policies and was revered as a saint. The beliefs and sacrifices of these Nine Emperors and Five Emperors have had a profound impact on Chinese history and are still passed down and celebrated today.

Three Emperors:"The Emperor", "The Emperor of the Earth", "The Emperor of Men".
Three Emperors and Five Emperors The Three Emperors and Five Emperors were Chinese "emperors" who appeared in legends before the Xia Dynasty. Now it seems that they are all tribal leaders who have become leaders of the tribal alliance due to their strength. It is generally believed that they should belong to the race.
Basically, whether it is according to myths and legends or the records of historical books, it is believed that the era of the Three Emperors is earlier than the era of the Five Emperors. However, different historians have different definitions of "Three Emperors and Five Emperors". The Three Emperors have five sayings, and the Five Emperors also have five sayings.
Three Emperors Suiren, Fuxi, Shennong.
Fuxi, Nuwa, Shennong.
Fuxi, Zhurong, Shennong.
Fuxi, Shennong, Gonggong.
Fuxi, Shennong, Yellow Emperor.
The last theory was popularized by the influence of the Book of Shang, and Fuxi, Shennong, and the Yellow Emperor became the three oldest emperors in China.
In addition, the Wei Book of the Han Dynasty referred to the Three Emperors as the Emperor of Heaven, the Emperor of the Earth, and the Emperor of Humans, and were the three gods. Later, in Taoism, the three emperors were divided into three groups: the first three emperors had a human form; The middle three emperors have a human face, a snake body or a dragon body; Among the three emperors, the head of the emperor of the Houtian Emperor is the snake body, that is, Fuxi, the head of the emperor of the Houdi is the snake body, that is, Nuwa, and the head of the descendant Emperor Niu, that is, Shennong.

Analysis: Three Emperors.
The legendary emperor of ancient China. There are five of the three emperors in the history of the Han Dynasty: Suiren, Fuxi, and Shennong.
Fuxi, Nuwa, Shennong. Fuxi, Zhurong, Shennong. Fuxi, Shennong, Gonggong.
Fuxi, Shennong, Yellow Emperor. The fifth theory was popularized by the propagation of the Book of Shang, and since then, Fuxi, Shennong, and the Yellow Emperor have become the three oldest emperors in China. In the Han Dynasty, there were still three emperors among the gods, and at the end of the Western Han Dynasty, the three emperors were the emperors, the emperors of the earth, and the emperors of people.
In the Taoist classics, the three emperors are divided into three groups: the first three emperors also have human forms; The middle three emperors have the body of a human-faced, snake-like or dragon-like; Among the three emperors, the head of the emperor is the snake body, that is, Fuxi, the head of the snake body of the emperor of the earth, that is, Nuwa, and the head of the head of the emperor Niu of the descendants, that is, Shennong.
Five Emperors. Emperor Yuan refers to the Emperor of Heaven. In "Xunzi", the term "Five Emperors" appeared.
From the Western Zhou Dynasty to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there have been many ancient emperors or gods named, so in many ancient emperors, the following five kinds of five emperors appeared: Yellow Emperor, Zhuan, Emperor Yu, Yao, Shun. Mi Opera (Fuxi), Shennong, Yellow Emperor, Yao, Shun.
Taihao, Emperor Yan, Yellow Emperor, Shaohao, Zhuan. The pseudo-"Preface to Shangshu" takes Fuxi, Shennong, and Huangdi as the three emperors, and Shaohao, Zhuan, Diyu, Yao, and Shun as the five emperors. With the respect of its scripture status, it is said in future historical books.
Therefore, the theory of the three emperors and five emperors was enshrined as the ancient history of letters. With the Yellow Emperor, Shao Hao, Zhuan, Yu, and Yao as the five emperors, it seems to be the latest to say.
Probably the Three Emperors refer to the Chahao people, which is a symbol of the different cultural stages of Chinese ancestors in prehistory. Youchao, Suiren, and Ku Xi (Fuxi) represent the low, intermediate, and senior stages of the obscurantist period, respectively; Shennong represents the lower stage of the barbaric era; Nuwa is an earlier Genesis-style god-man, and in mythology, she combined with Fuxi to create human beings. The people referred to in the Five Emperors Theory are mainly some tribal chiefs or military chiefs during the heyday of the patriarchal patriarchal tribal alliance and the period when the military banquet was implemented during the disintegration of the democratic system.
