In the opera world, it is commonly known as Liyuan Xing, and actors are called Liyuan children.

If you want to ask why, you have to start with the Tang Minghuang, the ancestor worshiped by the troupe in the past, that is, Li Longji, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty.

According to historical records: "Xuanzong knew music well and loved French music. He selected 300 disciples of Zubu Ji and taught them in the Liyuan. If the pronunciation was wrong, the emperor would recognize it and correct it, and he would be called the Emperor's Liyuan Disciple." The Liyuan was in the Forbidden Garden of Chang'an at that time.

, in 714 AD, the "Liyuan Pavilion" was set up for musicians to play music, and the palace ladies practiced dancing and singing. The Huichang Hall was the place where Xuanzong personally performed music.

At that time, there were also the Imperial Liyuan Dharma Department, the Liyuan Garden, the Taichang System Liyuan Academy, the Luoyang Liyuan New Academy, etc., so many musicians came out of the pear garden.

Liyuan is actually the first national opera school in my country, and Liyuan has become synonymous with the performing arts industry in later generations.

Because Xuanzong was good at using Jiegu to conduct the orchestra, later operas still used Siguban as the band conductor, and he was honored as Dagulao. He was located at the Kowloon entrance of the stage. Xuanzong was worshiped as the founder of the opera world, and his colleagues were Liyuan disciples. This continues to this day.

As we all know, the word "apricot forest" is a commonly used vocabulary in the field of traditional Chinese medicine, and doctors often regard themselves as "people in the apricot forest".

However, the dictionary "Xinglin" comes from Dong Feng, a Taoist doctor from Fujian in the Three Kingdoms in the late Han Dynasty.

Dong Feng, whose courtesy name was Junyi, was a native of Houguan, Fujian (today's Fuzhou). He had very high medical skills and was as famous as Hualun and Zhang Zhongjing at that time. He was known as one of the "Three Miracle Doctors of Jian'an".

According to the annotation of "Three Kingdoms·Shi Xie Biography", Shi Xie, the governor of Jiaozhou, suffered from a serious illness and passed out for three days. The immortal Dong Feng stuffed a homemade pill into the governor's mouth and poured a little water into it, and shook his head to eliminate it.

, after eating, the unconscious assassin miraculously opened his eyes and could move his hands and feet. "The color gradually recovered, he could sit up in half a day, and he could speak in four days, and then he returned to normal."

Similar records are detailed in "The Legend of Immortals", which shows Dong Feng's superb medical skills.

Among the many legendary deeds about Dong Feng, the most influential is the story of his practice of medicine in Lushan Mountain to help the world.

According to the record in Volume 10 of "The Legend of Immortals": "You live in the mountains and treat people's illnesses without asking for money or anything. If a person recovers from a serious illness, he will plant five apricots and one for a mild illness. If you do this for ten years, you will get one hundred thousand."

The remaining trees grew into forests..." Dong Feng once lived in seclusion at the southern foot of Mount Lu in Jiangxi Province for a long time, and devoted himself to diagnosing and treating diseases for the mountain people.

He never asked for remuneration when practicing medicine. Whenever he cured a seriously ill patient, he would ask the patient to plant five apricot trees on the hillside; if he treated a minor illness, he only needed to plant one apricot tree.

So after hearing the news, patients from all over the country came to seek treatment. Dong Feng all paid for his treatment by planting apricots.

A few years later, there were as many as 100,000 apricot trees in the Lushan area.

After the apricots matured, Dong Feng sold the apricots into grain to help the poor people in Lushan Mountain and the hungry people traveling from north to south. In one year, he helped more than 20,000 people.

It is precisely because of Dong Feng's noble character of practicing medicine to help the world that he has won the universal admiration of the people.

After Dong Feng became a human being, the people in the Lushan area set up an altar in the apricot grove to worship the benevolent Taoist doctor.

Later, people built the Apricot Altar, the Immortal Altar, and the Baoxian Altar in Dong Feng's hermitage to commemorate Dong Feng.

As a result, the word "Xinglin" has gradually become a special term for doctors. People like to use words such as "Xinglin is warm in spring" and "Xinglin is full of reputation" to praise common doctors like Tong Feng who have noble medical practices.
