74th generation. 275 BC to 213 BC. 3rd son of Xie (歇). Born when Xie was 40 years old. Also known as Tai Gong (太公-字), Tang (堂) and Yong (咏).

A Scholar at Xiguan (西关太儒) during the Warring States (战国) period and the Qin (秦) Dynasty.

When his father, Xie, was assassinated and his family members massacred in 238 BC, You Chong (幼冲) was in the Wu (吴) district and therefore escaped death. Unfortunately, he was killed during the burning of books together with more than 460 other scholars during the reign of Qin Shi Huang (秦始皇).

Had 12 sons. Da Gang (大纲) was his 4th son.

七十四世。公元前275 - 公元前213。黄歇之三子, 大纲之父。秦时大儒, 公元前213焚书抗儒时, 与卢生等四百六十余人同遇害。黄冲生12子, 四子大纲。

公元前246年 (黄歇68岁), 赵国大臣虞卿建议黄歇将自己的封地远离都城, 以避免出现像秦国商鞅 (约公元前390 - 公元前338) 那样因离国都太近而终被杀身夺地的祸害。黄歇言之楚王日: “现在齐国和秦国交好, 而淮北地靠近齐国, 军务要紧, 应该在哪里设立郡县, 加强防务。我愿意献出淮北十二地而改封到江东吴国旧墟 (今江苏苏州)“。楚考烈许之。黄歇是令尹, 要处里军国大事, 就让儿子黄幼冲 (约公元前275出生, 公元前246已30岁) 担任”假军“ (代理首席长官)。黄歇父子在故吴城墟筑城, 作为封邑之都。其时, 太湖以东地区许多水道年久淤塞, 常闹水灾。以前越裔领主各占一方, 无法统一治理, 黄歇父子来后就大兴水利工程, 疏通东江等河道, 又在低洼地区筑垻建埭。公元前238, 当李园派人抄斩黄歇全家时, 黄幼冲因远在吴地, 幸免于难。

可是, 公元前213黄幼冲还是连同460学者丧命于秦朝的焚书抗儒中。
