Dear All,
After watching the Drama Series of Singapore Mediacorp Channel 8, a lot of people had approached me on the issue and the identity of the 13th Immortal Maiden, and yes, in some of our Chinese Records, there are a few records on the 13th Maiden.
In here, I will do a quick introduction on the various 13th Maiden:
1 The sister of Yellow Emperor aka Huang Di.
According to the Chinese Deity Record of Taiwan, the younger sister of Huang Di, name unknown, was the sworn sister of the 12th Heavenly Maiden aka Shi Er Yan Tian Xi Nv Niang Niang.
Due to her name is not known and she is the younger sworn sister of Shi Er Yan Tian Xi Nv Niang Niang, so in the Folks Culture, she is being address as Shi San Niang Niang, Shi San Huang Gu Niang or Shi San Niang.
2 The 13th Daughter of the Senior General of Tang Dynasty.
Her statue can still be seen in China Dun Huang Cave-carving number 130.
