The State of Gaoping of the Jin Dynasty, located in the territory of Yanzhou in the Western Jin Dynasty, administered changyi, with seven counties under its jurisdiction, Changyi, Juye, Fangyu, Jinxiang, Hulu, Gaoping, and Nanpingyang. This was the fiefdom of Chen Qian, a major minister of the Western Jin Dynasty.
Duke Wu of Gaoping – Chen Qian. Chen Qian (陈骞字休元), a native of Dongyang, Linhuai (present-day Tianchang, Anhui), whose father was Cao Wei Situ Chen Jiao. Chen Qian has been simple and stable since he was a child, and he is full of strategy. Because of his family lineage, Chen Qian's career was quite smooth. At first, he held more civilian positions, such as Shang Shulang, Zhongshan Taishou, Anping Taishou, etc., and achieved outstanding political performance. But then he emerged in the military, from the front line against the Shu Han to the pacification of zhuge rebellion, Chen Qian was involved.
After zhuge ping's birthday, Chen Qian continued to hold military positions, and then served as the governor of Jiangnan and the military of Jingzhou, and was appointed as the grand general of Zhengnan, and was awarded the title of Marquis of Tan. After Sima Zhao's death, Chen Qian and Shi Bao actively instigated the change of dynasty. Therefore, after the establishment of the Western Jin Dynasty, Chen Qian was given the title of CheQi General and Duke of Gaoping County, and was transferred to the post of Shizhong and Grand General, and was responsible for overseeing the military affairs of Yangzhou.
The high-ranking and powerful Chen Qian was not carried away, and in the third year of Xianning (277 AD), Chen Qian first asked to enter the dynasty as an official on the grounds that he was old, and did not want to sit outside. After Sima Yan agreed to his entry into the dynasty, Chen Qian began to resign from illness, and at first Sima Yan did not agree, but under Chen Qian's repeated requests for resignation, Sima Yan agreed. In the second year of Taikang (281 AD), Chen Qian died at the age of eighty-one.
The second generation of Gao Pinggong - Chen You. After Chen Qian's death, his son Chen You succeeded to the title, and Chen You,served successively as a scattered horseman, Luoyang Ling, And Huangmen Shilang, and served as a general in the left army, the grand si nong, and the lieutenant. Chen Yu was a man of average character and did not have a harmonious relationship with his uncle Chen Zhi, but he was quite diligent in his work. The history books do not account for the time of his death, but it should be shortly after Chen Qian's death, after all, Chen Qian was old at the time of his death, and Chen You was probably not young.
The third generation of Gao Pinggong - Chen Zhi. Chen Zhizi Hongxian (陳植字弘先), was the son of Chen You, who succeeded to the title of Empress Dowager and was a regular attendant. But the history books record him only that.
The fourth generation of Gao Pinggong - Chen Pu. Chen Qian's descendants do not know whether they pursue the philosophy of Mingzhe to protect themselves or whether their ability is mediocre, and the history books have less and less evaluation of them. After Chen Zhi's death, his son Chen Chu succeeded to the throne, but his record is only that he was killed in the Yongjia Rebellion.
The fifth generation of Gao Pinggong - anonymous. After the fall of the Western Jin Dynasty, the State of Gaoping also perished, and after the establishment of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, it was not until the reign of Emperor Xiaowu Sima Yao that he thought of this Gaoping State that had been destroyed for decades, so he let Chen Qian's grandson inherit the title, but the name of this grandson was not explained.
The last Duke of Gaoping - Chen Haozhi. After the death of the Anonymous clan, his nephew Chen Haozhi inherited the title. When the Liu Song Dynasty was established, gaoping gong became history completely.
