Wei Feng

Wei Feng (died September or October 219[1]), courtesy name Zijing,[2] was a government official who lived in the late Eastern Han dynasty of China.

The Wei Jin Shiyu (魏晋世語) claimed that Wei Feng was from Pei Commandery (沛郡; around present-day Pei County, Jiangsu), but Wang Chang's Jia Jie (家誡) recorded that he was from Jiyin Commandery (濟陰郡; around present-day Heze, Shandong).

[3] He was recruited into the Han civil service by Zhong Yao and he served as an Assistant in the West Bureau (西曹掾).

[9] Those who were implicated include: Zhong Yao, who recommended Wei Feng, was dismissed from his position as the Chancellor (相國) of Cao Cao's vassal kingdom;[10] Wang Can's two sons, who were executed;[5] Liu Wei, who was also executed;[6] Song Zhong's son;[11] Zhang Xiu's son Zhang Quan (張泉) who was also executed (and his fief abolished);[12] Wen Qin, who was whipped but ultimately pardoned.

[13] At least three persons had foreseen that Wei Feng would rebel: Liu Yi, who cautioned his younger brother against befriending Wei Feng;[14] Fu Xun;[15] Liu Ye, who also accurately predicted that Meng Da would rebel.
