Should be Yu Xing
[edit]省 can indeed be pronounced sheng or xing, but his courtesy name, Zengsan 曾三, makes it clear that Xing is correct in this case. It refers to the so-called triple self-examination (sanxing 三省) practiced by Confucius's disciple Zengzi 曾子. In fact, one of the purposes of his courtesy name must have been to clarify the pronunciation of his given name. 98.115.255.240 (talk) 18:42, 12 July 2025 (UTC)
