Fan Chongyan (989— 1052), born in posthumous title and Wuxian (now Suzhou), was a famous figure in the Northern Song Dynasty. Zhongyan Cemetery in Wanan Mountain, southeast of Luoyang City, was chosen by Wen for his family through "divination".

Fan Li was buried here first, and later Wen and his heirs were buried here. According to the newly discovered epitaph of Taijun Zhang in Fengyi County of Song Dynasty, Wen's wife has a second wife, Zhang, who is the biological mother of Fan Zhongyan's youngest son, Fan Chunchun, and is of the same ancestry as Fan Zhongyan. This paper makes a textual research on Fan Zhongyan's "Burying Luo" and Zhang's trust.

The ancients regarded death as life, as Xunzi said: "Life is the beginning of being a human being; When you die, you die. In the end, everything is good, and human nature is finished, so a gentleman is cautious from beginning to end. Starting from scratch is a gentleman's way, and he is extremely loyal to his ministers and dutiful sons. "
