Zhou Wenwang title deed

China was the leader of western governors at the end of Shang Dynasty. Ji surnamed Ming Chang. Grandson of ancient duke's father, son of calendar. Shang and Zhou Dynasties were Xibo, the leader of the governors (countries) in the western regions. Also known as Xibochang. According to legend, Xibo was in power for 50 years and made full preparations for the great cause of commerce, but he died young before he started his career. Zhou people decided to make Xibo king of Wen. His son Ji Fa succeeded to the throne of Zhou Wuwang.

After Ji Li's death, his son Ji Chang succeeded to the throne, and he became the famous Zhou Wenwang in the future. After 50 years in power, his main achievement is to make full preparations for the destruction of business. He is a successful entrepreneur, diligent in politics, and attaches importance to the development of agricultural production. He respects worthy men and women, recruits talented people, worships military strategists, and makes "three points in the world, two points in the week". When King Wen was in power, he appeared as the "Fang Bo" of Shang Dynasty, surrendering to Shang Dynasty on the surface, but secretly preparing to destroy Shang Dynasty. He divided and disintegrated the vassal States of Shang Dynasty, fought for the country, successfully settled the land dispute between Yu and Rui, and made small countries in Hedong come to him one after another. The princes regarded King Wen as the "order king" to replace Shang Zhouwang. In the second year after Yu and Rui joined the army, King Wen moved to the northwest and southwest, which established a solid rear for destroying the business. Then it developed eastward, crossed the Yellow River and attacked other countries, such as Jiao and Guan. According to relevant information, it captured Chong, an important stronghold of Shang Dynasty in the middle reaches of Wei River, cleared an obstacle on Zhou Dongjin's road and gained abundant land. In the second year of the Eastern Expedition, King Wen built Fengyi on the west bank of Feng Shui, and the political center moved to Fengyi (southwest of Jin 'an). At this point, King Wen had completed the pincer-like encirclement of merchants, and Zhou people formed an aggressive offensive against Shang Dynasty. The portraits of Zhou Wuwang and Zhou Gongdan in the textbook are all from the Han Dynasty-Shandong samurai Hall.

When the Shang and Zhou Dynasties were Xibo, it was built under Qishan. He accumulated virtue and did good deeds and became a great politician. He was jailed for slandering Zhou Wang after worshipping Hou Hu and was released. Benefiting from benevolent government, most governors in the world obeyed. After the son won the world, he was honored as the head of the governors in the last years of Shang Dynasty. He was known as the Hou of Northwest China in history and was named as. Our ancestors, Gu Gong and his son, followed the cause of Hou Ji and Gong Liu, adopted the calendar and advocated the social atmosphere of respecting the elderly, showing little kindness and respecting the virtuous, so as to develop the social economy of their territory. Together with his son Ji Fa, he hired Jiang Shang as a strategist in Diaoyutai, Panxi, Baoji, and led an army to attack the Shang Dynasty from Qishan. He was a pioneer of the Western Zhou Dynasty. Invented "Eight Diagrams of King Wen" and "Sixty-four hexagrams of King Wen", which spread all over the world. "Historical Records" records that "King Wen was imprisoned and played Zhouyi". When he was imprisoned by King Shang, he wrote a book "Zhouyi" in prison and reigned for 50 years.

Wu Zetian changed the Tang Dynasty to the Zhou Dynasty and respected Zhou Wenwang as the ancestor of the Southern Zhou Dynasty.

Historical Records of Zhou Benji says that he can inherit the career initiated by Hou Ji and Gong Liu, imitate the laws and regulations made by his grandfather, ancient grandfather and his father, implement benevolent policies, respect the old and love the young, and be virtuous and corporal, and govern the Zhou base area under the banner. During the gap-clearing period, we pursued the rule of virtue at home, advocated "protecting the small people", vigorously developed agricultural production, and adopted the policy of "September 1 gang", that is, dividing the fields, allowing farmers to help plow the public fields and paying one-ninth of the taxes. Businessmen don't accept tariffs, some people commit crimes and their wives don't sit together, and so on. And the politics in the early days of feudal system, that is, the politics of enriching the people, was to collect taxes moderately and let farmers save some money to stimulate their interest in labor. He recruited talents from other countries, recruited talents from other tribes, and defected from Shang Zhouwang. He treated them with courtesy and appointed them. Such as Boyi, Shu Qi, Taidian, Yao Hong, Sanyisheng, Xiong Ji and Xinjia. , have joined the Jichang department to become a topic. Ji Chang lived a frugal life, dressed in ordinary clothes, worked in the fields and governed the country conscientiously. Under his rule, Zhou Qi became more and more powerful.

The strength of the Western Zhou Dynasty increased, causing anxiety in the Shang Dynasty. Shang Zhouwang's cronies, worshipping the late ruler Hu, secretly advised Zhou Wang that Xibohou had done good everywhere and established his own prestige, and all the governors yearned for him, which was not good for the king. So Zhou Wang put Jichang in prison (now tangyin county). During his imprisonment, he devoted himself to "performing the sixty-four hexagrams of Yi, each for his own use." In order to rescue King Wen from prison, Chen Zhou and others searched for beautiful women, BMW cars and pearls and jade. Zhou Wang was overjoyed: "This one is enough, not to mention so many treasures!" So he ordered King Wen to be released from prison. He also got bows, arrows, axes and cymbals, and authorized the fight against disobedient princes. This is what the history books say about King Wen's "evil in prison".

King Wen made up his mind to destroy business after he got out of prison. On the one hand, he provided land for Zhou Wang, demanding that it be exempted from torture and gain trust; on the other hand, he recruited and appointed talents to enhance national strength. He went hunting by the Weihe River and happened to meet Jiang Shang, an old and frail man, fishing by the river. King Wen talked with him and had a very speculative talk with each other. King Wen knew that Jiang Shang was very talented, so he asked Jiang Shang to go back with him and become a teacher, and made a strategy to destroy the enterprise. According to Biography of Shangshu, King Wen did six great things in his last seven years in office. In the first year, he mediated the dispute between Yu and Rui. Yu (Pinglu County, Shanxi Province) and Rui (Ruicheng City, Shanxi Province) were both western vassals of Shang Dynasty. However, they did not seek the ruling of Shang King. They all admired Zhou Wenwang's reputation and asked Wen King to judge. According to the notes in the Book of Songs, Daya Mian, Yu and Rui saw Zhou Guo as "the tiller gives way to him, and the walker makes him walk", "men and women have different ways, but the gray people don't help each other" and "the scholar makes him a doctor and the doctor makes him a gentleman". By contrast, I am ashamed. After returning to China, both countries took the initiative to dispose of the disputed land and the dispute was resolved. In the second year, he sent troops to attack the dog Rong, defeated foreign countries in Xirong, and destroyed several small countries. In the third year, the attack on Misu (now Lingtai County, Gansu Province) relieved the worries of the North and the West. In the fourth year, "Xibo Zhali (now Licheng County, Shanxi Province)", and in the fifth year, it was cut (now Qinyang County, Henan Province). In fact, the blow to Li and the blow to Li constitute a direct threat to Shangdu Song. In the sixth year, the country was destroyed (in modern Shaanxi). The capital of Zhou moved eastward from Qishan to Weishui Plain and established Fengjing (on the west bank of Fenghe River in Chang 'an County, Shaanxi Province). ("The Book of Songs is Elegant") "The city was built in Feng after cutting Feng." Later, it expanded its influence to the Yangtze River, the Han River and the Rushui River basin to the south, forming a situation of "two thirds in the world". This sentence in "The Analects of Confucius" shows that qi zhou has actually controlled more than half of the world, and the Shang Dynasty has been in an extremely isolated situation.

Just as this great achievement was about to be completed, Ji Chang died unfortunately. Both Shangshu Wuyi and Lushi Chunqiu Zhile all say that he enjoyed the country for 50 years, and only became king after 43 years of founding the country. After his death, he was buried in Bi (referring to the north and south banks of the Weihe River between Chang 'an County and Xianyang in Shaanxi Province, with a wide territory).

Zhou Wenwang is a famous saint in the history of China, praised and admired by later generations. There are hymns in the Book of Songs, which are elegant.

Sixty-four hexagrams of Zhou Wenwang

According to legend, in ancient times, Fu created Innate Yi (also called innate gossip), Shennong created Lianshan Yi (also called Lianshan Bagua) and Xuanyuan created Guizang Yi (also called Guizang Bagua). We don't know who created Yi before them at the same time. Speaking of it, the above from Fuxi to Shennong to Xuanyuan are all cultural heritages. At present, in the teachings of witchcraft, Buddhism and Taoism, and even among the people, there are still some amazing secret biographies of congenital Yi, mountain Yi, Tibetan Yi and Zhouyi, but there is no special person to collect and sort them out.

It was only in the Zhou Dynasty that the gossip of King Wen was handed down because of the birth of two great figures, Duke Zhou and Confucius, who studied, inferred and explained it. The so-called divination, there is no good or bad luck, it is to analyze and explain people's correct attitude, code of conduct and methods of doing things in prosperity and adversity. Through the inheritance of scholars and ruling classes, King Wen's Zhouyi has become the Bible of China, the source of a hundred schools of thought, and even people's daily life.

The Battle of Zhou Wenwang Attacking Dog Rong

During the period of King Di Xin of Shang Dynasty (about 1 1 century BC), in the battle of destroying the Shang Dynasty, Zhou Jun attacked Quanrong (now Wugong East and Xingping North in Shaanxi, now Fengxiang area in Shaanxi).

During the reign of King Wen, the ruling center of Zhou people was in Qi Xie area adjacent to Xirong. Dog Rong is one of them. At the time of martial arts, the dog side was a vassal state of the Shang Dynasty, and often participated in wars against countries of the Shang Dynasty. Hou Yi was ordered to cooperate with businessmen's multi-ethnic armed attack and plunder Zhou Fang. In order to relieve the worries of merchants in the Eastern Expedition, King Wen sent Zhou Guo's army to attack the remnant Rong, and finally won.

Zhou Dynasty (65438 BC+0066 BC-256 BC)

The rise, development and rise and fall of the Western Zhou Dynasty: The Western Zhou Dynasty (BC 1066-BC 77 1 year) lasted for more than 300 years, which was an important period of the Chinese empire and the heyday of China's classical civilization. Its material civilization and spiritual civilization had a far-reaching impact on the later historical development.

The first week is an ancient tribe active in the Loess Plateau in the west of the Central Plains. The ancestors of Zhou people are said to have abandoned Di Ku, the son of Yuan Fei Jiang Yuan. "Abandon" served as an agricultural teacher in Emperor Shun, known as "Hou Ji", and made great contributions to teaching human crops. In the early years of Shang Dynasty, his descendant "Gong Liu" led his troops to move to magnetism. When Gu Gong became the "father of the country", he moved to the south of Qishan (now Qishan County, Shaanxi Province) and settled down, and gradually developed into a new western force, calling himself "Zhou". After Gu Gong's youngest son, Ji Li, succeeded to the throne, he practiced morality, developed production and expelled Yidi, making him stronger and conflicted with business. Shang Wang Wending sent someone to kill him, and his son often succeeded to the throne. Chang Su is known as "Xibo". He is kind and loves the people, and he is a corporal. All the people in the world come to surrender. Zhou's development made Shang and Zhou feel threatened, so he imprisoned Xi Bochang in Youli for seven years.

The Zhou Dynasty redeemed Xibo with treasures and beautiful women. Since then, with the assistance of Lu Shang, Xibochang has indulged in pleasure on the surface and is very tame to "Yinzhou". In fact, he is better at Xiu De, please the people, vigorously develop production, let more governors join him, and then conquer unruly governors and business allies. Finally, there are two things in the world that become the so-called masters of order. Nine years later, Zhou Wenwang died. His son succeeded to the throne and was called King Wu. He continued to learn from Lu merchants, supplemented by Zhou Gongdan, supplemented by Zhao Gong and Bi Gong, and continued Wang Wen's unfinished business. Expand the capital to Haojing (now Chang 'an County, Shaanxi Province) east of Fengshui, and actively prepare to destroy the business. Two years later, King Wu summoned 800 governors to take a joint oath in Jin Meng. In December, the eleventh year of King Wen's mandate, King Wu's soldiers left Tongguan to join forces with the governors of various countries and moved eastward. On Jiazi Day in February of the following year, the Shang army was defeated in Konoha, killing Yin, which was called "King Wu destroyed Shang" in history, and the longest dynasty "Zhou Dynasty" in China history was established. The Zhou Dynasty experienced 37 emperors for more than 800 years and was destroyed by Qin in 206 BC. In 770 BC, King Ping moved the capital to Luoyi (now Luoyang, Henan). Feng Haoer is in the west and Luoyi is in the east. It is customary to call the Zhou Dynasty before 770 BC the Western Zhou Dynasty and later the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.

After the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, Lu Shang, Lu, Yan, Guan and Cai's Shu capital made great contributions to the counselors. It is said that in the early years of the Zhou Dynasty, a total of 7 1 vassal states were divided up, including brother states 15 and 40 countries with the same surname. The purpose of the founding of the People's Republic of China is to strengthen the rule over various places and act as a screen vassal of the Zhou royal family. The vassal then enfeoffed Doctor Qing in his fief, and Doctor Qing enfeoffed scholars in his fief, ruling the people from top to bottom. After the death of King Wu, his son "recited" the succession and became the "king". When he became a young king, the world was just beginning. Zhou Gongdan was afraid that the princes would not obey him, so he took Wang Shu as the regent. "Guan Shu" and "Cai Shu" refused, and together with "Wu Geng", the son of Yin Zhou, led Huaiyi to launch a rebellion.

Duke Zhou resolutely led the army eastward, put down the rebellion, killed Wu Genghe, exiled Cai Shu, and put down the remnants of Yin. In order to strengthen the rule of the East, Duke Zhou was appointed king, responsible for the construction of "Luoyi". After the completion of Luoyi, Wang Cheng personally came to Luoyi City to meet the world governors and leaders of Siyi, and moved the Yin adherents who followed Wu Geng's rebellion into "Chengzhou" for control. Duke Zhou also controlled Li Xiangle, formulated various laws and regulations of the Zhou Dynasty, and established a political system with patriarchal clan system as the core. King Cheng personally conquered the East and settled the East. After the death of King Cheng, King Kang, who succeeded to the throne, inherited his predecessor's career, made great efforts to cure diseases for the people, and the punishment was not used for decades, making the society more stable.

The political clarity of the three generations of Wu, Cheng and Kang was the golden age of Zhou. However, by the time of the fourth emperor "Wang Zhao", there was a crisis. At that time, Wang Dao was short of money, and King Zhao of Zhou was the son of heaven. When he was swimming in the Hanshui River in the south, he was ambushed by a boatman with a special plastic boat and was buried in the belly of a fish. After "Zhou Muwang" succeeded to the throne, in order to restore the prestige of the Zhou Dynasty, the new position of Taifu was established as the leader of Yu Tai's servants to strengthen the central management of the dynasty. He enacted criminal laws and reduced penalties to strengthen control over his subjects and govern the world well. He invaded the west, captured foreigners in the south, actively defended against the invasion of remote ethnic groups and stopped looting. King Mu also set out at the rate of Zeng Dongping's Xu Yanwang, sought Chu in the south, and met vassals in Tushan.

After Zhou Muwang, the Zhou Dynasty gradually declined. The four generations of "Wang * *", "Wang Yi", "Wang Xiao" and "Wang Yi" were plunged into a long-term war because of the constant intrusion of the surrounding military forces, which consumed a lot of national strength and had to intensify the exploitation of the people, and the domestic contradictions became increasingly acute. Some nobles also began to go bankrupt, showing their aversion to reality.

Long-term contradictions gradually accumulated, resulting in a profound crisis of the dynasty. In this case, Zhou Liwang, who succeeded to the throne, did not take measures to appease the people and develop people's livelihood. Instead, he appointed courtiers, squandered money and went abroad year after year. What's more, he was deprived and monopolized the interests of Yamazawa, causing people's dissatisfaction and discussion. He sent a wizard to watch, killed the arguer and made the contradiction more acute. Three years later, the indignant residents finally rioted and exiled Li to the Duke of Zhou and those who were in power at the same time, which was called "Zhao Zhou * * * and" in history. * * * and the first year, namely 84 BC1year, the history of China has a clear and continuous chronology since this year. After Zhou Liwang's death, his son Xuan Wang reorganized the state affairs, which once revived the Zhou Dynasty. However, by the 12th Emperor Zhou Youwang, the crisis of the dynasty was more serious. There are serious natural disasters in Guanzhong area, such as earthquakes, landslides, and river cuts. Instead of providing compensation to the victims, Zhou Youwang has become more extravagant, corrupt and insatiable. In order to win a "compliment" smile from his favorite princess, the reclusive king held a bonfire party to trick the princes into coming to him. The most serious problem is that the king decided to abolish the queen Shen, kill Prince Yijiu, establish Zan as the queen and his son Bofu as the prince. Upon Shen's application, his father, Shen Hou, joined forces with the remnants of the western tribes, mobilized troops to attack and killed the king at the foot of Mount Li. When his son ascended the throne on September 19, Guanzhong was looted by soldiers and soldiers, and the dogs came to harass him from time to time. Yijiu, the "Zhou Pingwang", had to move its capital to Luoyi, which was called "moving eastward" in history and began in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.

Political system:

The official system of the Western Zhou Dynasty was more complicated. Zhou Wang's assistants are a surname, a teacher, and Taibao, collectively known as the three fairs. There are three officials (government officials, government officials, local officials), four parties (princes, countries, tribes), and the Qing Dynasty. The officials of the dynasties were: Taizai, who was in charge of state affairs; Taizong, who was in charge of offering sacrifices to shrines; Taishi, who was in charge of calendars; and Shu Tai, who was in charge of blessing and divination. They were all called subordinates of Liu Qing and Liu Qing, and they were always called Qingshiliang. And Si Tuleideng is in charge of land and farmers, and Sikong is in charge of all kinds of work, Sima is in charge of military and political affairs, Shi Si is in charge of official titles, and Scott is in charge of punishment, which are collectively called the five senses. The court officials who serve the royal family include three officials (,Shaofu, Shaobao), Youdao, Auxiliary, Bi, as well as banquets, tailors, courtiers, temple people, internal longitudinal officials, men's Yin, firemen, navy officers, and high officials. The vassal States that Wang Ji served abroad were called Sifang, including Hou, Dian and Nan. The dynasty sometimes sent envoys to various vassal States to supervise. The vassal States set up hundreds of officials and departments in their feudal countries, imitating the royal family and becoming relatively independent regimes. There are mainly three officials, namely Stuart, Sima and Sikong, who are in charge of government affairs, justice and civil affairs. Zhou's officials at all levels are hereditary on the basis of patriarchal clan system, and they are all generals at all levels, regardless of civil and military affairs. The local system of Zhou dynasty includes state, capital, city, wild and cheap. The capital of Zhou Wang and its vassals is Zhou, the big city of the vassal state is Du, the small town is City, and other places are called Wild or contemptible.

Economy and culture:

During the Western Zhou Dynasty, sharp bronze farm tools were widely used and cultivated on a large scale. The original abandonment system was replaced by fallow system, and the land utilization rate was improved; The treatment and application of green manure and the control of pests and diseases with fire mark a new level of field management. Wang's officials in charge of crops must be familiar with different varieties of crops and their adaptation areas in order to better guide agricultural production. Crop varieties have increased, including millet, millet, millet, cereal, sorghum, wheat, rice and so on. , beans, yam, hops, etc. And hemp, ramie, etc. The dynasty set up a special field person to take charge of gardens and engage in the production of vegetables and fruits.

During the Western Zhou Dynasty, the more important handicrafts were controlled by the royal family and princes. Under the leadership of Sikong, hundreds of craftsmen were responsible for managing various handicrafts, the most important of which was still the bronze casting industry. Wide distribution area, expanded production capacity, improved efficiency and level, and improved casting process. Invented a mold copy welding technology. Pottery has gradually adopted the fast wheel method, and the products are standardized. The firing temperature of the original porcelain reached 1200 degrees, and the fetal quality was more delicate. There are blue and yellow-green glazes, and the mineral composition is close to porcelain. Can produce limestone-Shi Ying glass. Lacquerware is becoming more and more popular. The paint is covered with bamboo, red and black, with bright colors and exquisite patterns. Silkworm rearing is very common, and textile has become an important sideline for farmers. Silk fabrics include twill jacquard fabrics and embroidery. The microbial degumming method of retting hemp in pool water was mastered to separate fibers.

During the Western Zhou Dynasty, commerce has become an indispensable sector in the social economy, monopolized by the government, with qualified officials as market managers. There are slaves, cattle and horses, weapons, rare things and so on. In the Western Zhou Dynasty, except shellfish, bronze was used as currency.

Scientific development:

The source of China's scientific thought and culture is Yi. As one of the Six Classics, I Ching first put forward the definition of "astronomy". Although the Book of Changes was written in the Warring States period, it really expressed the thought of destiny formed in the Zhou Dynasty. The Book of Changes says: "Observe the astronomy to observe the changes of time", and the Book of Changes says: "The sky is hanging, and the saints like it when they see good or bad luck." Wait, the thought of Yin and Yang originated in the Western Zhou Dynasty has an important influence on the development of astronomy in China. Zhouyi has a long process of formation and development. What is called "River Map" and "Luo Shu" by later generations is the expression of burning Oracle bones and the reflection of the mutual connection and infiltration of rational thinking and image thinking realized by ancient ancestors in their long-term life and divination practice. According to legend, it was summed up by Fu Yi, who repeatedly arranged yarrow and painted it as gossip, which included all phenomena between heaven and earth and was primitive. Later, it is said that after careful study by Zhou Wenwang, it was standardized and sorted out, and it was interpreted as 64 hexagrams and 384 hexagrams. With divination and diction, it is called Zhouyi. It uses simple images and numbers, and the opposite changes of Yin and Yang to explain all kinds of complex social phenomena, and displays thousands or even infinite numbers, which has the characteristics of using few to show many, using simplicity to show many and being full of changes. Called "Yi", Zheng Xuan's explanation has three meanings: one is simplicity, the other is change, and the third is difficulty. That is to say, The Theory of Everything has changed, the phenomenon is constantly changing, and some of the most basic principles will not change, which abstracts rich and simple dialectics from the dialectical development of the objective world. In the late Spring and Autumn Period, Confucius explained and discussed the Book of Changes and completed the Ten Wings, namely the Book of Changes. In this way, Zhouyi has developed into a profound philosophical work about the change of the universe.
