Han Xiang

Han Xiang, the second immortal depicted on the embroidered scroll, is a nephew of the great scholar and statesman Han Yu.  Han Xiang surpassed his learned uncle's accomplishments. He was able to predict the future, and here he is accompanied by the yellow dragon, a symbol of change. Han Xiang always carries a basket of peaches to promote longevity.
