Shi Yixing was smart and agile when he was young. He read extensively in classics and history, especially in the study of calendar image, yin and yang and five elements. At that time, Yin Chong, a Taoist priest, was erudite and knowledgeable. He had a lot of books. The whole party went to Li Chong and borrowed Yang Xiong's Tai Xuan Sutra to read at home. A few days later, he went to see Li Chong again and returned his letter. "The meaning of this book is somewhat profound," said Chong."I have been looking for it for many years, but I have not been able to understand it. You should try to study it more. Why should you return it so quickly?" "I have examined the meaning of this," said Yi Xing. So he took out a volume of his "Dayan Xuantu" and "Yijue" to show Li Chong. Li Chong was very surprised, so he talked with a group of people about the mystery of the matter, very impressed. He said to others,"From now on, I will give birth to Yan Zi." Zhang Yixing became famous from then on. Wu Sansi admired his learning and behavior, so he asked to make friends with him, and the whole party fled to avoid him. Soon after, he became a monk and lived in seclusion in Mount Song. He was a monk named Pu Ji. Ruizong ascended the throne and ordered Wei Anshi, who stayed in the eastern capital, to be recruited according to etiquette. Zhang Yixing refused firmly on the grounds of illness and did not accept the appointment. Later, he walked to Dangyang Mountain in Jingzhou and studied Buddhist law with the monk Wuzhen. advocate
In the fifth year of Kaiyuan, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty ordered his uncle, the doctor of the Ministry of Rites, to take the imperial edict to Jingzhou to force him to rise. When he arrived in the capital, he was placed in Guangtai Hall and visited him many times. He asked him about the way to appease the people of Anguo. His words were sincere and straightforward, without hiding anything. In the tenth year of Kaiyuan, Princess Yongmu came out of the capital to surrender, and the emperor ordered the relevant departments to send her back generously, according to the old practice of Princess Taiping. Zhang Yixing thought that at the end of Gaozong's life, there was only one daughter, so he gave her special courtesy. In addition, Taiping was arrogant and arrogant, and finally offended, which should not be cited as an example. The emperor accepted his advice and immediately issued an edict not to implement it, but to follow the usual etiquette. His remonstrance is like this. know

He wrote three volumes of Da Yan Lun, ten volumes of Shediao Fu Zang, one volume of Tianyi Taiyi Sutra, one volume of Taiyi Bureau Dunjia Sutra and one volume of Shi Shi Xi Lu. At that time, the calculation of "Linde Experience" was gradually sparse, and the emperor ordered Zhang Yixing to examine the calendar of various families in the previous generation and revise the new calendar. He also ordered Liang Lingzan, the chief historian of the government, and other workers to create the ecliptic travel instrument to examine the movement of the seven stars and prove each other. Therefore, he deduced the number of Dayan in the Book of Changes, supported Yan to respond to it, and wrote the Kaiyuan Dayan Experience.

In the early years of Wei Shu, Zhang Yixing's grandfather, Taisu, wrote 100 volumes of Later Wei Shu, but his Astronomical Annals was not completed, so Zhang Yixing continued to write it. The emperor wrote an inscription for a line, personally wrote it on the stone, and took out 500,000 yuan from the inner treasury to build a tower on the original place of the bronze man. The following year, he went to Wentang and passed the pagoda. He stopped his cavalry and paced back and forth. He ordered the official to go to the pagoda to tell him the intention of leaving Yuzhou. He also gave him fifty bolts of silk to plant pine and cypress trees in front of the pagoda.
