Chapter Seventy-Three: Bao Xi Enters the Palace
readx;? Ji Gongyan was born in the 33rd year of King Xuan of Zhou (794 BC), the son of King Xuan of Zhou, and his mother Empress Jiang was the daughter of the monarch of Qi. During the reign www.biquge.info of King Xuan of Zhou, he established his son Ji Gongyan as the crown prince.
In the first month of the year, King You of Zhou ascended the throne after the death of his father King Xuan of Zhou, and became the twelfth monarch of the Western Zhou Dynasty after Shang, only 14 years old.
After King Zhou You ascended the throne, he set up his concubine Empress Shen (daughter of Shenhou) as the queen, and Ji Yijiu, the son born to Empress Shen, was the crown prince.
Zhou Youwang Xi Taishi Yin (Yin Jifu), the emperor's father's life.
Yin Jifu, who assisted three generations of emperors, when King Xuan, the highest official to the internal history, when King You of Zhou was in power, Yin Jifu and his father were both important ministers of King Xuan, and King Xuan was left to King You's auxiliary government, but soon after King Youwang ascended the throne, in order to compete for the post of King You's secretary (deputy minister, in fact, the chief of a hundred officials), he was framed by his father and exiled to Fangling (the ancient name of Fang County, now Qingfeng Town, Fang County, Shiyan City, Hubei Province), so he did not give up, and finally Yin Jifu was beheaded by King You.
In this way, the imperial father successfully became the secretary of King Zhou You. The imperial father also made great contributions, and the establishment of King Xuan's southern division was inseparable from his merits. But by the time King Youwang was in power, the imperial father was already only thinking about fame and fortune.
In this year, Qiu Qiu, the son of Jin Muhou Feisheng, returned to the Jin Kingdom after four years of exile, killed his uncle and uncle Yan with the support of the Jin people, regained the throne, and was called Jin Wenhou.
In the second year of King Youyou of Zhou, the first year of Marquis Wen of Jin, a number of serious natural disasters occurred, and an earthquake occurred in Haojing, the capital of the Western Zhou Dynasty, and caused the three rivers of Jing, Wei and Luo to shake.
The doctor Bo Yangfu (father) said: "The Zhou Dynasty is about to fall. The two qi of yin and yang between heaven and earth cannot lose the law, and if the law is lost, it is people who disturb it. Yang energy lies in the ground and cannot come out, and yin energy oppresses yang energy and cannot rise, so an earthquake will occur. Now there are earthquakes in the Jing, Wei, and Luo rivers, because the yang energy has lost its proper position and is suppressed by the yin energy. Yang Qi is out of order and below Yin Qi, the source of the river must be blocked, the source is blocked, and the country must perish. When the water and soil are ventilated and moist, they can produce things for the people. The land has no water source, the people lack money and daily necessities, and the country does not perish, when will it be! In the past, the Yishui and Luoshui were exhausted, the Xia Dynasty was destroyed, the Yellow River was exhausted, and the Shang Dynasty was destroyed. Now the virtue of the Zhou Dynasty is also like the last generation of the Xia and Shang dynasties, and the source of the river is blocked again, and the source blockage must be exhausted. The establishment of the country must rely on the mountains and rivers, and the collapse of the mountains and the drying up of the rivers are a symbol of the death of the country. When the river dries up, a landslide will definitely occur. If the kingdom is to perish, it will not take more than ten years. Because ten is a cycle of days. The kingdom that Heaven will forsake will not exceed the time limit of ten. ”
In the same year, the three rivers of Jing, Wei and Luo were depleted, and a landslide occurred in Qishan, the birthplace of Zhou. This is all bad omen.
King You of Zhou, also facing a state of financial exhaustion, ordered an increase in taxes and appointed his uncle Zheng Huan Gong as the Situ of the Zhou royal family, in charge of the country's finances, land, and household registration.
Marquis Wen of Jin and King Xuan's son Duofu joined forces to attack Yan, and the State of Yan was defeated, but at that time there was no such thing as a feudal state being destroyed without the permission of the Son of Heaven, so the State of Yan still existed.
Historical documents show that from the Xia and Zhou dynasties to the early Warring States period, there has always been a state of 缵 in the territory of Fangcheng. "Shiben" said: "Zeng's, Xia Shaokang sealed his young son Qu Lie in Yan." "Shi Zai Shaokang has nine sons, and Qu Lieshi is the second son. This shows that the Xia Dynasty had a kingdom of Xuan.
"Chinese.Zheng Yu" Wei Zhao commented: "缯, Shenzhi and Guoye." It shows that during the Western Zhou Dynasty, the state of Jin was adjacent to the (southern) state of Shen. "Zuo Biography: Four Years of Mourning Gong" said: "To Fang Cheng outside the Guan. Du pre-note said: "Negative letters, and the customs are all clear." According to Jiang Yong's "Spring and Autumn Geography Survey" and Gao Shiqi's "Spring and Autumn Geography Survey", the country and the pass are in Bali Bridge, Fangcheng County, Nanyang, Henan Province.
In "Chinese Zhou Yu Zheng Ren Slid", "杞, 缯 Ze Da 姒" indicates that the country is surnamed 姒 and is a descendant of Xia Yu. According to the "Etymology", "缯" is the general term for silk fabrics. Many places in Fangcheng have unearthed Neolithic to Xia Dynasty cultural relics sites, especially the Xia Dynasty cultural sites of Baliqiao, unearthed a large number of stone axes, stone Yue, Shi Jue, Tao Zun, gray pottery and other Xia Dynasty cultural relics, its cultural characteristics are the same as Erlitou Xia Dynasty culture, among which the unearthed stone Yue is a symbol of power, and its earliest owner should be Qu Lie.
According to this, it can be seen that the state of the Marquis in Fangcheng County is the Marquis of the Xia Dynasty, and the ruins of the Xia Dynasty of Fangcheng Baliqiao are the capital of the Marquis Qulie Marquis and the origin of the Zeng family.
The state of Yan (缯国) went through the Xia, Shang, and Zhou dynasties, and lasted for nearly 2,000 years, until the Spring and Autumn Period, when the sixth year of Lu Xianggong (567 BC) was destroyed by the Ju State.
During the reign of King Xuan of Zhou, his younger brother (Ji) Ziyou was enshrined by King Xuan in Zheng (Huazhou District, Weinan, Shaanxi, formerly known as Zheng County), becoming the first monarch of Zheng State, and was the Duke of Zheng Huan.
Zheng Guo, as the prince of the Zhou Dynasty, the Zhou family declined, and Zheng Huan actively sought a strategy for the whole body and did not coexist with the Zhou family. He asked Taishi Boyang: "The royal family has a lot of trouble, and I am afraid." Where can you escape to death?" Taishi Boyang said: "The royal family will be humble, Rong Di Bichang, and you can't force it!" He then carefully analyzed the situation at that time, only "between Ji, Luo, He, and Ying" (Jishui, Luoshui, Yellow River, Yingshui) is relatively safe, there is no big country there, Yu (referring to Dongyu, located in Bishui Town, Xingyang City, Zhengzhou, Henan), and Yiguo (Xinmi City, Zhengzhou, Henan), two small monarchs, "all have arrogance and slackness", and a little force or bribery can be dealt with.
In the year, Zheng Huan Gong listened to Shi Bo's suggestion and used his status as the Minister of Finance to obtain the land of Shiyi as the foothold of the new Zheng Guozhi in the East by bribing the princes of Yu and Yi, which was known as the hill of Zheng's father. Its place should be the place where Zhengzhou is now located, and Zhengzhou is named after Zheng Guo.
In the Spring and Autumn Period, the Zhou dynasty moved eastward, and Zheng Wugong and Zheng Zhuang of Zheng State also successively served as the court's finance ministers, and they often used the name of the Son of Heaven to carry out annexation, annexing some of the surrounding small vassal states, including the (eastern) Yu and Yi countries. Zheng Guo became a prince of Kinai from the prince of Jinai.
year, the third year of King Zhou You, Zhou Fa has praise (Bao country), Wang Huan praise. Bao Xi entered the palace and gave birth to an uncle.
As mentioned earlier, King Zhou Xuan killed Du Bo, and the person concerned grew up in Bao Guo and looked like a fairy, because he was a native of Bao Guo, and Bao Guo was the descendant of Yu, and the country surname was Hi. Therefore, after entering the palace, it is called Bao Xi.
Here is an introduction to the Bao country, which is a vassal state with the same surname as Dayu. The founder of the monarch is the son of Dayu, "Historical Records Xia Benji": Yu "then divided, with the country as the surname, so there is Xia Hou, there is Hu...... Bao's ......" Qing Dynasty Jiaqing "Hanzhong Mansion Chronicles" contains: "Yu Feng his son is a Bao Jun, there is a Bao country. "The place where the country was founded was in Hantai District, Hanzhong, Shaanxi, and it was the first local government to appear in Hanzhong.
