readx;? Taibo Well, also known as Rangwang Well, is located in the east of the Zhide Palace, and the well water is clear and delicious. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 InfoLegend has it that Taber chiseled water for the local residents. However, according to research, the Taibo Well was built during the Warring States period. After the construction of the Taibo Temple, it has always been the kitchen well of the Taibo Temple. Liu Zhao of the Southern Dynasty recorded in the "Notes on the Book of the Later Han Dynasty": "In the east of Wuxi County, Taibo Tomb in Huangshan. The people are respectful. There is an old house ten miles from the tomb, and the well still exists. "Wu Diji" recorded: "Wu built the city of Meili Ping Ruins, there are houses in the city, and the old site and the well still exist. ”

The Tang Dynasty poet Li Shen lived in seclusion in the Taibo Temple in his later years, and left many poems in the Taibo Temple, among which "Taibo Well" wrote: "Where is the virtue now, there is a spring in the Pingxu Well; ”

Taibo died without a son, and was succeeded by his younger brother Zhongyong. Zhong Yong died and was succeeded by his son Ji Jian. Ji Jian died and was succeeded by his son Shuda. Shuda died and was succeeded by his son Zhou Zhang. At this time, King Wu of Zhou destroyed the Yin Dynasty, sought the descendants of Taibo and Zhongyong, and found Zhou Zhang. Zhou Zhang was already the monarch of Wu Di, so he gave him the Wu land to worship Wu Taibo. And sealed Zhou Zhang's younger brother Yu Zhong in the old summer capital of the north of the Zhou Dynasty, this is Yu Zhong, in order to worship Yu Zhong.

Historical records record that there are two Yu Zhong before and after, and the former Yu Zhong is named Zhong Yong, and the latter Yu Zhong is the great-grandson of Zhong Yong, ranking second, and is named Yu Guo, so it is called Yu Zhong. The two are a great-grandfather and great-grandson relationship, so why is Zhong Yong also called Yu Zhong?

More than 700 years ago, Fan Chengda, a famous literati in the Southern Song Dynasty, had pondered this problem, and made an explanation in his masterpiece "Wu Junzhi", his opinion was: Zhong Yong is the ancestor of Zhou Zhang's brother Yu Zhong, and Yu Zhong was sealed by King Wu in Yu, and later generations crowned Yu Zhong's feudal country "Yu" before his ancestor Zhong Yong, so Zhong Yong is also called Yu Zhong.

From the record of "Historical Records of Wu Taibo's Family", we can see that after King Wu Keshang, he looked for the descendants of Taibo and Zhongyong, just to seal them to honor Taibo and Zhongyong, and found Zhou Zhang, and Zhou Zhang had become the monarch of Wu. At that time, it was very important to keep one's relatives from becoming extinct. Even for the enemy country, the king of the Tao often destroys the country without ceasing to worship it, and Wu Geng Yu Yin, the son of King Wu of Zhou, is an example.

According to the feudal patriarchal system of the Zhou Dynasty, Zhou Zhang, as the eldest great-grandson of Zhong Yong, should naturally succeed to the Taibo (the succession must be the eldest son). In this way, Zhong Yong's inheritor can only be the second great-grandson Zhong (ranked second, so called Zhong), Zhong was sealed in Yu State, so he was called Yu Zhong. Because Yu Zhong enshrined Zhong Yong, Zhong Yong's descendants used the Yu character of Yu to name Zhong Yong before the name of Zhong Yong, and Zhong Yong also ranked second, so it is also called Yu Zhong.

According to the records of "Historical Records" and "Zuo Chuan", after the eldest son Taibo and the second son Zhongyong, the leader of the Zhou clan in the late Shang Dynasty, established the state of Wu, the throne of the monarch was passed down to the fifth generation, and King Wu of Zhou destroyed Yin, and then divided the two descendants of Taibo and Zhongyong: one of them was in Yu State, which was in the interior, and the other was in Wu State, which was in the southeast barbarian region.

When the monarch of Wu passed to the seventeenth generation, the monarch of Yu coveted the treasure and jade of Jin and Jin, and borrowed the way to the Jin army that went south to crusade against the Yu State. This is the origin of the historical allusions "false path to extinction" and "cold lips and teeth".

In the fifteenth year of Wu Yi, Wu Yi moved the capital of the Shang Dynasty from Xian (Qufu, Shandong) north of the Yellow River to the Wei (also known as Wuding City, Hebi Qi County, Henan) built during the Wuding period.

Twenty-one years after Wu Yi, Gu Gong's father.

Gu Gong 亶 (dǎn) father adds a word "father" after the "亶" to express respect, not called "亶father", "Gu Gong" is also an honorific title. Because of his benevolent government, so that many tribes were attached, after the Zhou Dynasty destroyed the Shang, Zhou Wu Wang Ji Fa believed that the "royal qi" began with his father, so he was posthumously honored as the prince. Therefore, later generations also called him "King Tai of Zhou", the place where he lived was called "King Taiwang City", and his tomb was called "King Taiwang's Tomb".

In the history of the development of the Zhou people, Gu Gong's father was a key figure in the great cause of Houji and Gong Liu, and the prosperity of King Qiwen and King Wu, and was a far-sighted politician, reformer, military strategist, and a famous virtuous king in history.

After the death of Gu Gong's father, he was buried in Qiyang Village, Zhujia Town, Qishan County, Shaanxi Province.

The age of the construction of the tomb of King Taiwang of Zhou is unknown, and it is misreported that it is the tomb of King You of Zhou, and the county of Qishan of Wanli is distinguished from Bangdong. The tomb mound of King Tai of the present Zhou Dynasty is 3.5 meters high and about 50 meters in circumference. There is a tombstone of the 48th year of Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty to increase the number of the Pingshi, 3 meters high, the inscription "King Taiwang of Zhou" is engraved on the Qing Shaanxi governor Bi Yuan, the stele tower, the stele base has been damaged, the tombstone of Qiyang Village was rebuilt in 2000.

Ji calendar, name calendar, Ji surname, Ji is the ranking (in ancient times, Bo, Zhong, (uncle), Ji to indicate the order of eldest and youngest, that is, the youngest), honorific title Gong Ji, Wang Ji, Zhou Wang Ji, the young son of King Tai of Zhou, the father of King Wen of Zhou.

After Ji Li took over the throne, it was called Gongji, with Qi (now a part of Qishan and Fufeng counties in Shaanxi Province) as the capital, and King Wu of Zhou posthumously honored as Wang Ji after destroying Shang, also known as Zhou Wang Ji. After he ascended the throne, Taibo and Yu Zhong later founded the state of Wu in the Taihu Lake Valley. Ji Li inherited the ancient public relics, governed the Zhou sect, built water conservancy, developed agricultural production, and promoted benevolence and righteousness, and the power of the Zhou people gradually became stronger.

After the death of the ancient duke, Ji Li took the throne, repaired the ancient duke's legacy, devoted himself to righteousness, led the tribe to build water conservancy, and developed agricultural production, thus promoting the social and economic development of the Zhou people and strengthening the power of the Zhou.

Ji Li actively trained the army, and diplomatically, because of the relationship between his wife and Tairen, he had a very close relationship with the Shang king Wuyi, actively absorbing the Shang culture and strengthening the political ties with the Shang.

With the support of the Shang Dynasty, he made a big move against the surrounding Rongdi tribes and continued to expand his military power. In fact, as a central dynasty, Shang was also very disgusted by Rong Di's invasion of Shang, but due to Wu Yi's brutal rule, he was unable to deal with Rong Di, and Ji Li's crusade against Rong Di was warmly responded to by Wu Yi, who authorized Ji Li to command the Western vassal states to attack Rong Di, in which the focus of the attack was the Rong Di tribe in Shanxi, which posed a threat to Shang, and the main enemy was the Ghost Fang (now the Hetao area of Inner Mongolia in northern Shaanxi, Shanxi).

In the twenty-fourth year of Wuyi, with the support of the Shang Dynasty, Ji Li took advantage of the opportunity to lead his troops to develop eastward, and had a decisive battle with Cheng Guo in Bi, and finally defeated and annihilated the Cheng State (east of Xianyang City) in the east, and the power of the Zhou people dominated Guanzhong.

In the thirtieth year of Wuyi, Ji Lishuai Zhou Shi conquered many smaller Rongdi tribes around him, and crusaded against the Rong people in the north such as Yiqu, captured the leader of the Yiqu tribe, and presented the booty and captives to the king of Shang, which was a major celebration ceremony in ancient times. Shang Wang Wuyi is very happy and trusts the calendar even more.
