Correct Meaning Guide (Zhengzitong): Well-field systems are the standard; scattered fields that cannot be partitioned into well-fields are called ji. When the topography is crooked and irregular, and the well-field system requires a perfect square, there must inevitably be odd or fractional fields. Those who map out the well-fields must calculate the remainders to complete the required number. Furthermore, all fractional remainders of numbers are referred to as ji.
Zhuangzi (Zhuangzi): A ji person is one who is odd in relation to men but equal to heaven.
Also, in Discourses of the States (Wuyu): When Dong He was about to return, the king called for the left ji. Commentary: Left ji refers to the title of the left wing of the army.
