Text] Chapter 721 Fishing - In the winter of October this year, King Zhou Cheng sent troops to destroy the Tang State (one of the descendants of Yao) in the Taiyuan area, and moved its people to Du (now southeast of Xi'an City, Shaanxi Province). According to the "Bamboo Chronicles" Vol. Next: "(In the winter and tenth month of the ninth year of King Cheng, the king's army destroyed the Tang Dynasty and moved its people to Du." About 1054 BC, the tenth year of Jisong, King Cheng of Zhou Dynasty. In this year, King Cheng granted his mother's brother Shu Yu to Yao's former ruins in today's Taiyuan area. He was called the Marquis of Tang Dynasty. Volume 2 of "Bamboo Book Annals": "(In the tenth year of King Zhou Cheng, the king ordered Tang Shen (Shu Yu) to be a marquis." In the eleventh year of King Zhou Cheng in 1053 BC, in this year, Tang Shuyu presented a golden harvest to King Zhou. Zhou Cheng The king believed that the birth of Jiahe was due to the Duke of Zhou, and ordered Uncle Tang to return the harvest to Duke Zhou (Volume 2 of "Bamboo Book Annals": "(In the eleventh year of becoming the king, Uncle Tang presented Jiahe, and the king ordered the harvest to be returned to Duke Wen of Zhou)". 1018 BC, the ninth year of King Kang of Zhou Around this year, Tang Shu Yuzi Xie's father changed the name of the country to Jin. According to the second volume of "Bamboo Book Annals": "(In the ninth year of King Kang's reign, the Tang Dynasty moved to Jin Dynasty and built a beautiful palace. The king gave it to him.") History begins from this point Note: Among the twenty-one counties listed in Ban Gu's "Hanshu - Geography - Taiyuan County", "Jinyang County" is listed first, and he notes: "Therefore, in the "Poetry" of the Tang Dynasty, King Zhou Cheng destroyed the Tang Dynasty. The fiefdom of Shuyu, Longshan is in the northwest, there is Yanguan, Jinshui comes out, and enters Fen in the east. "Also: The place name "Tang" and "Jinshui" are mentioned in the "Jinshui" article in Volume 6 of Li Daoyuan's "Shui Jing Zhu". "The distinction is very detailed, and he says: "The Jin River comes out of Jinyang County to the west of Xuanweng Mountain. The county is also the home of the Tang Dynasty. "Qiu Zuo Zhuan" states that before Tang Shu was born, his mother, Emperor Jiangmeng of Yi, said to him: "I have more names." And the disciple called him Yu, and he gave him the ginseng of the Tang genus, and gave him the name Yu. " "Lu Shi Qiu" said: "Uncle Yu lived with King Cheng, and Wang Yuantong Ye was there, and he gave it to him and said: 'I take this. "Yu asked the Duke of Zhou, "Is the emperor going to seal Yu?" The king said, "The emperor has no words." There was Jinshui, which was later renamed Jin. The late son Xia Xu called it Jin, and called it Tang. It was frugal and polite, and it had the legacy of Yao, as stated in "Book of Jin - Di Dao Ji" and "Thirteen Prefectures". Jinshui comes out of Longshan, also known as Jieqi Mountain, which is in the northwest of the county. "Shan Hai Jing" says: "The mountain of Xuanweng is where Jinshui comes out." Now it is in the southwest of the county. In the past, Zhibo blocked the Jinshui for irrigation. Jinyang later generations used its ruins to build a marsh. On the west side of the marsh, there is a mountain and water, and there is the Temple of Tang Shuyu It is the most scenic spot in Jinchuan The city is located on the Yangtze River, so it is called Jinyang. The commander-in-chief defeated Di in Dalu. Du Yu said: "Dalu is also the county of Jinyang." It was the old capital of Jin in the 13th year of Qiu Dynasty. Zhao Yang rebelled against Jinyang and later became Zhao. Its water flowed into Fen from the southeast. In about 964 BC, when King Mu of Zhou Dynasty was in his 13th year, the fourth generation king of Jin Dynasty, Jinchenghou Jifu, moved the capital south from present-day Taiyuan to Quwo (present-day Shanxi). Wenxi northeast. Yang Bojun's "Qiu Zuo Zhuan Note": "Xiefu, the son of Uncle Tang, changed the name of Tang Dynasty to Jin Dynasty, which is today's Taiyuan City. In the fourth generation, he went to Chenghou and moved south to Quwo, east of today's Wenxi County, Shanxi. In the fifth generation, he went to Muhou. , Relocation to Jiang, Jiang Yiyi" (Zhonghua Book Company, 1981 edition, page 44. "960 BC, King Mu of Zhou's seventeenth year. In the autumn and August of this year, after the capital of the Jin Dynasty moved south, a vacuum in Taiyuan's rule was formed. In view of this situation, King Mu of Zhou moved some of the minority tribes that submitted to Zhou to Taiyuan. According to the second volume of "Bamboo Chronicles": "(In the autumn and August of the seventeenth year of King Mu, the troops moved to Taiyuan." In the seventh year of King Xie of Zhou Yi in 863 BC, in this year, the troops in Taiyuan rebelled, and the king of Zhou Yi sent the Duke of Guo to lead the army. The army attacked them and captured a thousand horses at Yu Quan (the name of the place is unknown today). According to the "Bamboo Chronicle": "(In the seventh year of King Yi's reign, Guo Gong commanded his army to attack the troops in Taiyuan. As for Yu Quan, he captured a thousand horses." BC In the fifth year of King Jing¡¯s reign in 823, in the summer of June, King Xuan of Zhou sent Commander Yin Jifu to march north to Taiyuan to attack Yan Yan. The "Bamboo Chronicles" states: "In the summer and June of the fifth year, Commander Yin Jifu attacked Yan Yan in Taiyuan." This is what is recorded in "The Book of Songs - Xiaoya - June". The poem says: "Thin attacks and severe attacks, as for Taiyuan. Civil and military affairs are prosperous, and the constitution of all nations is established." This year was the 33rd year of King Xuan of Zhou in 795 BC. , the army of the Zhou Dynasty once again attacked the Rong of Taiyuan in the north, but failed to achieve victory. According to the "Bamboo Book Annals": "In the thirty-third year, the king's army attacked the Rong of Taiyuan, but failed." 788 BC, the 40th year of King Xuan of Zhou. This year, King Xuan of Zhou counted the people registered in Taiyuan. According to the "Bamboo Book Annals": "In the forty years, the people were counted in Taiyuan." "Guoyu-Zhou Yu": "King Xuan lost his master in the south. He was counted in the people. Taiyuan. "According to legend, before about the 21st century BC, China was in the late stage of patrilineal clan society. The Yellow Emperor was the common ancestor of all ancient ethnic groups, and the Shanxi area was the territory of the tribal leader Yao. Yao was a member of the Tao Tang family, named Fangxun, and built The capital is in Pingyang (now Linfen, Shanxi). There is a temple of Yao, which was called Tang Yao in history. Liu Lei, a descendant of Emperor Yao and a Miao, was granted the title of Tang State. It is an ancient country with a very early history in my country, and has gone through the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties. By the 11th century BC , after King Wu of Zhou destroyed Yin, he also put an end to the rebellion.Tang Dynasty, descendants of Liu Lei. After the death of King Wu of Zhou, his son succeeded to the throne and became King Cheng of Zhou. King Cheng granted his younger brother Shu Yu the title of Yu in the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty, where Shu Yu was granted the title, actually accepted everything left by Liu Lei's descendants, and its territory was the Fen River and Hui River basins in Shanxi. As for where the ancient Tang City is located, there are two theories: one is 20 miles west of Yicheng County; the other is 2 miles north of Jinyang County, Bingzhou. Not considered here. But the more common theory is the latter. It may be because people have seen from the reality that after the Tang Dynasty was changed to Jin Dynasty, later generations did build Jinyang City in the area of ????the old Tang City and built a Ci Hall in Jinyang for Tang Shuyu. My opinion is that both theories are possible. To put it more objectively, it may be that Yao and Tang Dynasty established their capital in Linfen, Liu Lei¡¯s descendants built Tang City in Yicheng area, and Shu Yu established Tang Dynasty in Jinyang after he was granted the title of Tang Dynasty. city. In any case, Taiyuan, Shanxi Province, was a fiefdom of the ancient Tang Dynasty. During the reign of King Wu Ding of Yin, the king of Wei State, Liu (Ji Gong), was moved to Xia Xu (now Xia County, Shanxi Province), which was called Tang State (Western Tang Dynasty), and his son was granted the title of Wei (õ¹Î°), and his surname was Wei State. In this way, the Shang Dynasty At that time, there were three concubines (or Qi surnamed Tang) in the Shanxi area: the Northern Tang Dynasty, the Southern Tang Dynasty, and the Western Tang Dynasty. The kings were all descendants of Emperor Yao. Original text: The Wei Kingdom, the Southern Tang Dynasty, and the Northern Tang Dynasty were loyal to the Shang royal family and had a close relationship. Especially the Shang Dynasty After Wang Pangeng moved the capital to Yin (today's Anyang City, Henan) and changed its name to the Yin Dynasty, southern Shanxi became the royal territory of Yin and had a closer relationship with the Tang Dynasty. There are many records in the oracle bone inscriptions of the Yin Ruins about the King of Yin going to hunt in the fields of the Tang Dynasty, as well as the Tang Dynasty's According to records such as King Yin's order to conquer the neighboring states of Changren and Kufang, experts believe that this Tang Kingdom refers to the "Northern Tang Kingdom". The country was relatively strong at that time, while the Southern Tang Kingdom was relatively weak.
