readx;? During the period of King Shang, the Marquis of Ehou was a minister in the court, and was listed as the third prince along with Xibo Jichang and Jiuhou. The pen %fun %www.biquge.info Shang Xuan took a fancy to the daughter of the nine marquis and married her as a concubine. But Jiuhou's daughter has a dignified temperament and is unwilling to accompany the king to do those shameless deeds, so in a fit of anger, the king killed the father and daughter of Jiuhou, and made Jiuhou into meat sauce. When the Marquis of Ehou saw that the Nine Marquis had died unjustly, he refused to fight with the king of Xu, and was also killed.

In the middle of the Western Zhou Dynasty, the hometown of the Eguo was merged by the Jin Dynasty, and the remnants moved south to Echeng District, Ezhou City, Hubei, which is still called the Eguo.

Xiongqu felling Yong (Chongqing Three Gorges area), and on the way captured the country of Eguo (Echeng District, Ezhou, Hubei). After getting rid of the two major threats of Xu and Hubei, Chu has truly become a great power in the south of the Yangtze River. The remnants of the Hubei State moved north to Nanyangbei, Henan, to avoid the threat of Chu.

Xiong Qu sealed his son Xiong Hong as the king of Hubei, and his fief was in the hometown of Hubei. Xiong Qu died, Xiong Hong's heir, still living in Hubei, and the six kings to Xiong Yu still lived here, which was the capital of Chu. In the Spring and Autumn Period, it was the capital of Chu. Xiong, the king of the Chu Communist Party, tried to make his third son, Zihui, the king of E. In 323 BC (the sixth year of King Huai of Chu), King Huai named his younger brother Qi as the king of E. In the year (the twenty-sixth year of Qin Shi Huang), Qin abolished Chu and abolished the feudal country and placed Exian County.

In the eighth year of King Yi of Zhou, King Yi contracted an illness, which made him unable to govern state affairs. The princes with the same surname were very worried, and they prayed to the god of mountains and rivers, but it did not have a positive effect on the illness of King Yi.

King Zhou Yi finally died of illness and was nicknamed King Yi. After the death of King Zhou Yi, he was succeeded by his son Ji Hu, who was King Zhou Li.

King Li of Zhou, reigned for years.

King Zhou Li, surnamed Ji, named Hu.

Grandfather: King Zhou Xiao

Father: King Zhou Yi

Sons: King Xuan of Zhou, Duke Zheng Huan

King Li of Zhou was born in the winter of the seventh year of King Xiao of Zhou, that is, when he was born, there was an abnormal weather of thunderstorms, and the Yangtze River and the Han River flooded, which was considered a bad omen.

In the first month of the year, King Zhou Li, the son of King Yi of Zhou, ascended the throne and became the tenth monarch of the Western Zhou Dynasty. At the time of his accession, he was seventy-one years old.

As soon as Zhou Li Wang Fu ascended the throne, he became a palace. It shows that he is the same as King Mu, focusing on pleasure, but unfortunately he did not catch up with the Zhou Dynasty, which was still strong in the era of King Mu, and in the era of King Zhou Li, the Zhou Dynasty was already stormy.

King Li of Zhou wanted to reform the government, so he used the eldest father of Rong Yi and Yu Gong, who had expertise in economics and military affairs.

Economically, King Zhou Li tried to revive the ruined royal economy, and he grasped the two main links of "patents" and agriculture.

King Li of Zhou appointed Rong Yi Gong to implement the "patent", that is, the changed Zhou people jointly enjoyed the collective ownership of mountains, forests, rivers and rivers, and turned them into state-owned, that is, the royal family was the owner of mountains, forests and rivers, and those who wanted to make a profit must pay fees to the royal family.

In the past, it was collectively owned, and with the passage of time, the mountains, forests, rivers and rivers of the Western Zhou Dynasty were owned by nobles at all levels, and the "patent" of King Zhou Li was aimed at them, and the ordinary people were not constrained. King Zhou Li's "patent" was by no means a "monopoly," let alone "competing with the people for profit," but rather that he stipulated a number of "special" material wealth to be paid to the royal family from the mountains, forests, rivers and rivers owned by the nobles, which were only similar to taxes.

From a modern point of view, the mountains and forests are owned by the state, and it is normal to pay a certain percentage or a fixed amount of taxes after making profits, but King Li's reform at that time was too radical compared to the tradition of the time, and was strongly opposed by the nobles.

The nobles could not directly target King Li, so the spearhead was directed at Rong Yigong, who specifically implemented the "patent" reform. In fact, Rong Yigong is only an executor.

The good husband of Rui (Guo) Earl (Lord, King) advised King Zhou Li: "I am afraid that the royal family is about to decline! Wealth and wealth are produced from all kinds of things, which are naturally possessed by heaven and earth, and if someone wants to monopolize it, then there will be many disasters. Everyone can share in everything that is born in heaven and earth, so how can one person have it alone? The monopoly of one person will inevitably lead to the wrath of heaven and the resentment of the people, but they do not know how to guard against great calamities. Rong Yi uses his wealth to lure you, can you still live in peace for a long time? As a king, you should develop all kinds of wealth and distribute it to the upper and lower groups of ministers and the common people. So that the gods, the people, and all things may get their due, and even then, they must be vigilant every day, lest they invite resentment. Therefore, the "Ode" says: 'My ancestor Jiwen De is the world, and the merit is worthy of the gods, and you have made the people stand on their own feet, and there is no one who does not take you as the standard.' The psalm in the Daya also says: "Universally bless the people and accomplish the Zhou dynasty." Doesn't this mean the general distribution of goods, and the need to be vigilant against calamity? It is precisely because of this that the first king was able to establish the cause of the Zhou dynasty until now. And now, the king, you have learned to monopolize wealth, how can this be? if a king does this, then the number of people who belong to him will be reduced. If Rong Yigong is reused, the Zhou Dynasty will definitely decline. ”

Rui Liangfu clearly pointed out that "the present king learns patents", and "learning" means that King Zhou Li should stipulate special tribute taxes in the mountains, forests, rivers and rivers of the nobles. Mr. Hu Jizhuang said that Rui Liangfu "represents the interests of free small businessmen", which is a correct assessment. There is a similar record in the "Yi Zhou Shu Rui Liangfu Chapter", Rui Liangfu called his colleagues "ruling boys", indicating that the rulers were people under middle age, and the "ruling less" in the era of King Zhou Li was probably Rongyi Gong. Judging from the tone, it is obvious that he admonished the backward in the tone of the old minister, and the content of the accusation was "patent as authority" and "greed for the king". This was mainly aimed at Rong Yigong's efforts to help King Zhou Li take economic reform measures to crack down on the aristocratic economy and strengthen the royal economy. Among them, "knighthood is bribed" shows that the awarding of knighthoods has begun to have a utilitarian tendency, and the titles are sold with money one by one to solve the economic difficulties of the royal family.

King Zhou Li did not listen to the advice, but still appointed Rong Yigong as a secretary (vice minister) to take charge of state affairs and continue to promote the reform of "patents".

The poem "Dang", which summoned Mu Gong to mourn the bad of the Zhou family, protested against King Zhou Li's use of "greedy" people instead of "old chapters and old ministers", saying that King Zhou Li's character is unknown, so he doesn't know who is the assistant and who is the minister. Then the conversation changed, and he talked about history in a tone of admonition, saying that the fall of the Shang Dynasty could not blame God, because the Shang King did not use the old ministers, and King Zhou Li's current approach is a "typical" of the Shang Dynasty. This kind of opinion can also be found in the poem Daya Ban, which says that the children of the royal family and the family are the pillars of the state.

The nobles did not want to pay taxes, but they did not dare to directly confront King Li, so they closed the mountains and forests one after another, saying that this was King Li's mountains and forests, and they had to pay taxes when they entered the mountains, inciting dissatisfaction with King Li. Ordinary Chinese people can't enter the mountains and forests to make a living, and they naturally hate King Li incomparably, openly discussing and accusing King Zhou Li of tyrannical and extravagant and tyrannical.
