郑州 / Zhengzhou

郑州 / Zhengzhou enters the wiki through Hanji 162-1 as the present-day city used by the source to frame the memory of 纪信. The episode says that the people of ancient 荥阳 honored Ji Xin as a 城隍 after his death, and connects that protective cult to today’s Zhengzhou.

The page should be treated as a memory and geography bridge rather than a simple identity replacement. The source’s point is that Ji Xin’s sacrificial death at 荥阳相持 remained legible in later local worship, with the city-god temple surviving cycles of damage and repair.

  • The source does not give a detailed institutional history of Zhengzhou’s city-god temple, only its survival as public memory.
