A native of Bingzhou, his family practiced medicine for generations. Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty summoned him to serve as an Imperial Physician. In the third year of Xianping (990 AD), the Empress Dowager was unwell. Wenzhi attended to her medication, and upon her recovery, he was promoted to Imperial Physician in Charge of Medicines (Shangyao Yuyi) and granted a gold-and-purple robe. He was repeatedly promoted to Medical Director of the Hanlin Academy.
A native of Suiyang, he was initially a Daoist priest who had a fondness for medicine. Emperor Taizong of Song summoned him to return to secular life and appointed him as Imperial Physician in Charge of Medicines, later promoting him to Medical Official of the Hanlin Academy. Emperor Taizong often paid attention to medical prescriptions, collecting over a thousand famous formulas. At this time, he issued an edict ordering the Hanlin Medical Officials to submit their family's effective prescriptions. This added another ten thousand formulas. He ordered Huaiyin, along with Vice Minister Wang You, Zheng Qi, and Medical Official Chen Zhaoyu, to review and compile them. For each syndrome, they placed Chao Yuanfang's *Zhubing Yuanhou Lun* (Treatise on the Pathogenesis of Various Diseases) at the beginning, followed by the relevant formulas. The work totaled one hundred volumes. The Emperor personally wrote the preface, named it *Taiping Shenghui Fang* (Prescriptions of the Peaceful Holy Benefit), and ordered its printing and distribution throughout the realm.
A native of Dezhou, he moved to Luoyang and practiced medicine. During the Chunhua era, he accompanied his elder brother, Zi Zheng, to the capital, where he gained fame for his medical skills. Both were appointed as Medical Officials and repeatedly promoted to Deputy Medical Director of the Hanlin Academy.
A person from Kaifeng Prefecture who gained fame for his medical skills was conscripted into the Imperial Medical Bureau. When Emperor Renzong was unwell, the attending physicians' multiple treatments were ineffective. Xi Zhen said, "Acupuncture at the Bao Luo (Pericardium Collateral) below the heart can cure this immediately." Those around him considered it inadvisable. Several eunuchs tested the acupuncture on themselves and confirmed it was harmless. Thus, the needle was inserted, and the Emperor recovered immediately. He was appointed as an Imperial Medical Official of the Hanlin Academy and granted a fish-shaped ornament for his robe. He authored *Shenying Zhenjing Yaojue* (Essential Secrets of the Divine Response Acupuncture Classic), which circulated in the world.
Courtesy name Zhongyang. His ancestors were from Qiantang. His great-grandfather migrated north and settled in Yun. He studied medicine in his youth. During the reign of Emperor Shenzong, in the Yuanfeng era, he merited promotion for treating a princess. He was awarded the title of Medical Official of the Hanlin Academy and promoted to Vice Director of the Imperial Medical Bureau, granted a purple robe and crimson fish ornament. His treatments yielded remarkable effects. He authored several volumes of *Shanghan Zhiwei* (Subtle Indications of Cold Damage) and *Ying'er Lun* (Discourse on Infants).
During the Xining era, he served as a Doctorate Student at the National University, correcting medical texts. He had a profound understanding of formula mechanisms and disease pathogenesis. Meriting reward for his contribution to compiling the *Neijing* (Inner Canon) under Emperor Shenzong's edict, he was granted a crimson fish ornament and the title of Senior Cavalry Commandery Viscount.
During the Xining era, he served as Minister of Light and Glory (Guanglu Qing) and Directly Attended the Secret Pavilion. Together with Gao Baoheng, he corrected the *Neijing*, greatly enhancing his reputation in medicine.
A native of Qishui, he was intelligent and eager to learn, mastering medicine. He studied the *Suwen* (Basic Questions), *Lingshu* (Spiritual Pivot), and *Jiayi Jing* (Systematic Classic of Acupuncture and Moxibustion), reaching deep into their mysteries. He wrote books and established theories, expounding upon insights not previously published by predecessors. He described the pulse of the Ying (Human) and Kou (Cubit) points: when located at the hand and throat, if they are equal above and below, like a drawn string, it indicates health; excess or deficiency indicates disease, differentiated by the Three Yin and Three Yang channels. His descriptions were very detailed and precise.
