There is no Zhangfei Temple in Xianyang, so people mistake Wang Zhongxian Temple for Zhangfei Temple. Wang Zhongxian Temple was built in the early Ming Dynasty, located in Laojie South Street. At that time, the temple gate faced south, and the hole was opened from the city wall.

The county magistrate who took office in the 13th year of Ming Dynasty (15 18) closed the north gate of Wang Temple in Zhongxian County for safety. It was renovated twice in the forty-sixth year of Wanli in Ming Dynasty (16 18) and the seventh year of Daoguang in Qing Dynasty (1828). More than 1000 warriors were recruited to fight hard. The crisis of lacking arrows in the besieged city was solved by borrowing arrows from scarecrows, and the enemy soldiers finally retreated. Later, he repeatedly made meritorious deeds in pacifying the Anshi rebellion and was named loyal monarch. According to Shaanxi Tongzhi, "Wang Feng is a water god, and the people in the city are near the shore, so they worship Yan." In the past, the Weihe River often flooded, which became a major hidden danger in Xianyang City. Zhang Xun was named the water god, and the people in Xianyang prohibited temple fairs to offer sacrifices to protect Xianyang from danger. This is the reason why Zhongjun Temple was established. Because the novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms is widely circulated, Zhang Fei's name is well known to all women and children, and his reputation is far greater than that of Zhang Xun. It is said that when Wang Zhongxian Temple was rebuilt in the late Qing Dynasty, due to ignorance or other reasons, a statue of Zhang Fei and his son Zhang Bao was built in the temple and a large flying whip was made. From then on, the Prince's Temple in Zhongxian became Zhangfei Temple, and people respectfully called it "Zhangfei Temple", which produced many legends and stories about Zhang Fei's flogging to curb the flooding of Weishui. "When Xianyang is flooded, Lao Zhang will take care of it." In fact, these are the sustenance of the people's good wishes for governing the Weihe River. Zhang Fei was a general of Shu in the Three Kingdoms period, and was named the Brazilian satrap by Liu Bei (the county ruled Langzhong, in present-day northern Sichuan), which was completely different from "loyal to the monarch".
