Yi Zhong was born in Yichun, Jiangxi Province. The word "Dingchen". The year of birth and death is unknown.

In 845 ad (the fifth year of Huichang of emperor Wuzong of Tang Dynasty), the number one scholar of Yichou division was the first. There are 27 Jinshi in this section. The seventh person failed in the second round examination. Examiner: Chen Shang, doctor Zuo Jianyi. This is the second number one scholar in Yichun in three years after Lu Zhao, and it is a good story. Yi Zhonghou went to Dali temple to comment on the affairs.

At the time of publication, Zhang was the number one scholar, Yi Zhong was the second, Jinshi and 27. The famous scholars and Juzi thought that it was unfair to select scholars in this subject, and there were many discussions. Wu Zong ordered Bai Minzhong, the academician of Hanlin, to take the second examination. As a result, Zhang and other seven people were dethroned and Yi won the first place again. At that time, everyone thought it was fair. From the second to the first, Yi Chong was quite proud, that is to say, he wrote the poem "to Yiyang brothers". The poem says: "in the past six years, YanXu has been separated from YanXu, and now I have met you. When the wind of the emperor of the upper kingdom was on the first happy day, the Royal rank was Enwo. In the inner court, it was called Wenyi again, and the Holy Lord declared his name and awarded Yiqi. If the immortal in his hometown asked each other, he could climb two branches in one spring. "

Yi attached great importance to good poetry, especially Gongwen. There are more than 1000 excellent works, which are famous for a while, but most of them have been lost.

There is a poem named Ji Yiyang brothers in Quan Tang Shi.
