Under Emperor Gaozu of the Han, the Four White-Headed Recluses of Mount Shang roamed in the company of the Crown Prince. Emperor Wen received the Chapter and Verse Commentary on the Daodejing of Laozi from the Old Man on the River. Under Emperor Wu, Liu An, King of Huainan, authored a work styled Huainanzi; together with the Eight Worthies, he ascended the mountain and rose to heaven in broad daylight. The Emperor ascended Mount Songgao and erected a Daoist hall; the Queen Mother of the West arrived and bestowed the True Form Charts of the Five Sacred Peaks and the Flying Numina Talismans of the Six Jia, which were reverently installed on the Bailiang Terrace, where he regularly paid homage to them. Dongfang Shuo arrived at the Lucky Cloud Marsh, obtained five-colored sweet dew, and presented it to Emperor Wu, who distributed it widely to all his ministers.
