Profile
Yang Pei was a commandery administrator who appears in the account of Zhou Xuan in the Biographies of Technicians (Records of Wei 29). He has no biography of his own in the Records, and in Chen Shou's main text he appears only in this one passage. He was the administrator when Zhou Xuan of Le'an served as a commandery clerk; when someone told him in a dream, 'On the 1st day of the 8th month Lord Cao will come, and he will surely give you a staff and have you drink medicinal wine,' he had Zhou Xuan interpret the dream. Records, Wei 29 §47
Chen Shou's main text does not record his courtesy name, origins, the years of his birth and death, or any of his other deeds. In his assessment of the Biographies of Technicians, Chen Shou counted Zhou Xuan's interpretation of dreams among the profound and extraordinary skills, but said nothing in particular about Yang Pei. He does not appear in the Romance. Records, Wei 29 §47 · 86
In the Records
Zhou Xuan, courtesy name Konghe, was a native of Le'an and became a commandery clerk. The Administrator Yang Pei had a dream in which someone said, 'On the 1st day of the 8th month Lord Cao will come, and he will surely give you a staff and have you drink medicinal wine.' Yang Pei had Zhou Xuan interpret the dream. Records, Wei 29 §47
The Yellow Turban rebels had risen at the time, and Zhou Xuan replied that a staff is what raises up the weak and medicine is what cures people's illnesses, so on the 1st day of the 8th month the rebels would surely be wiped out. When the day came, the rebels were indeed defeated. Chen Shou's main text does not say in which year this happened, and this passage is the only one in which Yang Pei appears. Records, Wei 29 §47
