Biography
Although Wu Ding reportedly had over 60 wives, he had only three queens: Fu Jing, Fu Hao, and Fu Gui ({{lang|zh|婦癸}}). Like Wu Ding's other wives, Fu Jing participated in military expeditions and divined for the state.{{cite journal| title=中国古代女性阅读史分期述略 | trans-title=A brief introduction to the stages of Ancient Chinese women's written histories | language=Chinese | last1=Zhou 周 | first1=Ying 英 | journal=Xinshi Jitu Shiguan | issue=8 | date=2014 | pages=75–78}} Some of the divinations Fu Jing conducted focused on procuring millet, so Zheng Zhenxiang has suggested that she was responsible for agricultural management. Fu Jing is often referred to in the oracle bones as Biwu ({{zh|c=妣戊}}).
