駙馬 (The first character has the fanqie 符遇 [fù]. Fùmǎ is an official title. The Zishu states: 'Auxiliary.' Huang Kan states: 'King Mu of Zhou loved to raise horses; when someone could train them well, he gave him his daughter in marriage and had him accompany the Son of Heaven's horses, hence the name fùmǎ.' The Hanshu states that Jin Midi was skilled in handling the imperial horses, and this official title was instituted.).
