Jinguo hegemony
The "Dazong" of the Jin State refers to the orthodox regime located in the capital Yicheng after the Jin State was split into two regimes, while the "Xiaozong" was a confrontational regime located in Quwo. The State of Jin began to split after the Marquis of Jin Zhao divided Qu Wo Huan's uncle, so the first generation of Emperor Dazong was the Marquis of Jin Zhao, and the first generation of Xiaozong was Qu Wo Huan.
Uncle QuWo Huan was already 58 years old when he was knighted, and due to his deep political background in the Jin Dynasty and his rich combat experience, many nobles around Yicheng gradually sided with Uncle Qu Wo Huan. Among them was luan bin, the grandson of marquis Jing of Jin and the grandfather of Qu Wohuan's uncle, Luan Bin' grandson Luan Bin, who was the strongest of the later jin state secretaries, but unfortunately the final struggle for power failed.

Uncle Qu Wo Huan even rebelled against the people within the Yicheng Sect. A doctor named Father Pan was bribed by Uncle Quwo Huan, and at the behest of Uncle Quwo Huan, he blatantly killed marquis Zhaohou of Jin, and then sent someone to Quwo to welcome Uncle Quwo Huan to Yicheng to succeed him as king of the Jin state.
However, Father Pan's method was too low in technology, too simple and rude, which aroused the anger of the nobles in Yicheng, and at the same time, the sudden change of lord also seriously hurt their fundamental interests, so the nobles of Yicheng spontaneously united to lead the army to take Uncle Qu Wohuan outside of Yicheng.
Map of the situation in the Jin Dynasty
After a fierce battle, Uncle Quwo Huan, who was too anxious and ill-prepared, was defeated and had to return to Quwo in ashes. The nobles of Yicheng retained the power of Emperor Dazong and began to settle accounts after the autumn, killing the rebel Father Pan and installing Ji Ping, the son of Marquis Zhaohou of Jin, as the new monarch to stabilize people's hearts, and Ji Ping was the second monarch of Emperor Dazong.
Marquis Xiao of Jin
From then on, the Emperor of Yicheng and the Emperor xiaozong of Quwo began a struggle that lasted for more than 60 years.
From the geographical point of view, Quwobi wing city has the advantage, it is closer to the plain and the avenue, conducive to the development of economy, culture and transportation. Wing City, on the other hand, was closer to the Northern Di tribes such as Chi Di and Bai Di, and was often harassed, coupled with the fact that it had to fight with Qu Wo, so it was in a situation of fighting on both sides for a long time. Qu Wo seized this opportunity to destroy Wing City.
Qu Wo Huan died a few years before his grandson Marquis Xiao of Jin, and after his death his son Ji Eel succeeded Qu Wo as The Prince of Qu Wo.
Quwo Zhuangbo
Qu Wo Zhuang Bo was a very capable man, he trained the army well, waited in a strict position, watched the movement of Yicheng at any time, and set off as soon as there was a situation.
Later, there was indeed an opportunity, once, The Marquis of Jin xiao sent an army to fight chidi, the rear was empty, and Quwo Zhuangbo immediately led his army to sneak from the rear to attack the city of Yicheng. After the army on the front line of Yicheng returned to reinforcements, Marquis Xiao of Jin had been killed by Quwo Zhuangbo. Only by allying with a vassal state next to Quwo, the Xun State (郇国), and threatening Quwo's old lair, did the Yicheng army repel Quwo's army. However, the State of Xun also offended Qu Wo and became the target of Qu Wo's blows, and was eventually destroyed by Qu Wo and enfeoffed with The Great Master Yuan, forming the Xun Clan of the Secretaries of the Jin Dynasty.
Map of the situation around the Jin Dynasty
After the death of Marquis Xiao of Jin, the nobles of Yicheng also established Ji Qi, the younger brother of Marquis Xiao of Jin, as the Prince of Jin, continuing the rule of Emperor Dazong, and Ji Hao was the Marquis of Jin. Both generations of monarchs of emperor Daizong of jin died at the hands of Quwo Xiaozong.
