The Jiang Qi 蒋起

Paul Peng
Jiang Qi was a native of Jinfang during the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, and his courtesy name was Huchen.

He started his career as a Confucian scholar, serving successively as a Shidou (Reader) in the Guoshi Yuan (Imperial History Academy) and as the Tidu (Superintendent) of the Zhili Academy. Later, he abandoned his official post and traveled to famous mountains and great rivers six times. In the sixth year of the Kangxi reign (1667), he entered Wudang Mountain and became a Taoist Priest.

His works include Wuzuo Sizhong Zuiye Shuo (On Not Committing the Four Kinds of Karmic Sins) and Sui'an Ji (Collected Works of Sui'an).
