Chou Collection, Middle Volume Radical: Earth (tǔ) Kangxi Strokes: 10 Page 229, Entry 23 Guangyun: Pronounced jue. Jiyun and Yunhui: Pronounced jue. Jiyun: Same as yu. Er-ya, Commentary on Mountains: Describes mountains with many large stones. Also, qiaoque, meaning uneven. Another meaning is barren or thin soil. Records of the Grand Historian (Shiji), Biographies of the Three Princes: The land of Yan is barren and rocky. Also, Jiyun and Yunhui: Pronounced jue. Meaning a prison. Citing the commentary to the Book of Odes (Shijing), Odes of Tang, Xinglu: A prison is called a que. Zhengzitong: Note that using que to mean a prison does not correspond to the terminology of the Zhou dynasty. Another opinion states that in the Analytical Dictionary of Characters (Shuowen), the term juan refers to a women's prison, and que is a corrupt form of that character.
