The monarch of the State of Qin in the Seven Heroes of the Warring States is the Surname zhao, and the Monarch of the State of Zhao is also the Surname of Zhao, so what is the relationship between them? The first sentence of the "History of the Zhao Family" is: "The ancestor of the Zhao clan, and the ancestors of Qin." "That is, they share a common ancestor.
This ancestor can be traced back to the Yellow Emperor in ancient times, of course, the descendants of the Yellow Emperor have gone more, so this does not mean anything, we can continue to trace back in the near future.
The Yellow Emperor had a grandson for The Yellow Emperor, and there was a female doll named Lady Huan in the descendants of the Yellow Emperor, who raised her head when weaving cloth, and just as a bird flew over, it fell down the bird's egg, and after the woman swallowed it, she became pregnant and then gave birth to Daye, and Daye had a son named Daye.
Da Fei is a celebrity, he once followed Da Yu to rule the water, made a lot of merit, Shun in the praise of Dayu, Dayu also mentioned the big fee, so Shun also rewarded the big fee, but also gave the beautiful woman surnamed Yao to Da Fei as his wife.
Since then, Dafei has stayed by Shun's side, taming birds and beasts for Shun, Dafei has worked seriously, tamed many birds and beasts, and therefore, people have called Dafei Baiyi, also known as Boyi, and Shun also gave Boyi the surname of Yin, and from then on, Boyi had a surname.
Bo Yi had two sons, namely Da Lian and Ruo Mu, Ruo Mu had a grandson named Fei Chang, Fei Chang's descendants were scattered in the Central Plains and Yidi, and he himself happened to live in the Xia Jie period, Xia Jie was not benevolent, Fei Chang defected to Shang Tang, drove for Shang Tang, participated in the Battle of Mingtiao between Shang Tang and Xia Jie, and made a great contribution.
Therefore, Boyi's descendants mixed well in the Shang Dynasty, especially the descendants of the Da Lian branch, Which had a son named Zhongyan, who drove for Emperor Tai peng, because of the good frame, he also married the daughter of Emperor Tai Peng, and became a new upstart of the Shang Dynasty, and his descendants gradually grew stronger, mixed up in the Shang Dynasty, and Zhongyan's grandson Zhongxiao lived in the western Rongdi living place, guarding the western frontier for the Shang Dynasty.
Zhongzhuo gave birth to a son named Fei Lian, who was the common ancestor of Qin Zhao, and among his two sons, his older brother Xie Lai was the ancestor of the Qin State, and his younger brother Ji Sheng was the ancestor of the Zhao State. Fei Lian's father and son lived in the late Shang Dynasty, that is, the Di Xin (Shang King) period, Fei Lian ran particularly fast, and the evil Came Kong Wu was powerful, so both father and son served Di Xin.
Even though the Shang Dynasty at that time was about to fall, the father and son did not abandon Di Xin and had always been loyal to the Shang Dynasty, so after the King of Wu fell, King Wu of Zhou killed the evil Lai who fought with Di Xin, and Fei Lian escaped a disaster because he was sent by Di Xin to the north, and when he returned, Di Xin was already dead, Fei Lian could not report to Di Xin, so he set up an altar sacrifice at Huo Taishan to report to Di Xin, and the loyalty of the father and son was evident.
Unlike his father and brother Emperor Xin, Ji Sheng chose Xiqi, especially Ji Sheng's son Meng Zeng, who was favored by King Cheng of Zhou. Therefore, Ji Sheng's branch was still good in the Western Zhou Dynasty. In particular, Ji Sheng's great-grandson, The Great-Father, was the coachman of King Mu of Zhou. The father was favored by King Mu of Zhou because he was good at driving.
King Mu of Zhou let his father ride the Eight Horses to carry King Mu of Zhou around the world, and they went west to reach the Queen Mother of the West, and it was in the West that they forgot to return, so that after a long time, King Xu Yan launched a rebellion, and King Zhou Mu let the Father of Zhou rush back to quell the rebellion day and night.
This is the time to test the driving level of the Father-Maker, who "drove back to the week for a long time, a thousand miles a day." "Quickly sending King Mu of Zhou back to suppress the rebellion and making a great contribution, so King Mu of Zhou sealed his father in Zhao Cheng, so there was the Zhao clan, and the surname Zhao began from then on."
Ji Sheng's branch all lived in Zhao Cheng, starting from the father-making place, and his descendants, Zhou Tianzi, occasionally had the ability to drive for Zhou Tianzi, such as Gongzhong, who was once the coachman of King Xuan of Zhou, and made great contributions in the Battle of Thousand Acres. Gongzhong had a son, Shu Dai, who lived during the reign of King You of Zhou, and because King You of Zhou was unkind, he no longer served Zhou Tianzi, but instead went to the Jin State to serve the Marquis Wen of Jin, and the Zhao clan began to grow and develop in the Jin Kingdom.
Uncle Zhao's fifth grandson Zhao Su served the Duke of Jin and obtained the fiefdom of Geng, which can be regarded as a real foothold in the Jin kingdom. Zhao Su's grandson Zhao Wan, who also lived during the Jin Xiangong period, did not follow the Jin Xiangong, but chose to make friends with the son of the Jin Xiangong, Zhong'er, and later followed the heavy ear outside for nineteen years, becoming a heavy vassal after the Succession of the Jin Wen Gong Zhong'er.
The Zhao family began to prosper, becoming one of the Six Qing families of the Jin Dynasty, and later united the three families of the Han and Wei clans to destroy the wisdom, and then the three families divided into jin, in 403 BC, Zhou Tianzi recognized the identity of the three princely states of Han Zhao and Wei, and the State of Zhao has since become a princely state.
Since his father was sealed in Zhao Cheng to zhao liehou among the princes, the interval between more than five hundred years, it can be said that it is quite a long time, compared to the other branch of the Zhao clan with the surname Zhao to establish the Qin state in a relatively short time.
After the father was sealed in Zhao Cheng, not only ji sheng's branch won the Zhao clan, but even the evil one was also the Zhao clan, "with the favor of the creator father, all of them were under Zhao Cheng, and their surname was Zhao." ”
The fifth grandson of the evil lai originally lived in Inuyasha and made a living by raising horses and livestock, and with the favor of his father, Feizi also received the attention of the Zhou royal family, and when King Xiao of Zhou knew that Feizi was good at raising horses, he let Feizi manage the horses between The Wei and wei.
Under the management of Feizi, horses were multiplied in large numbers, and King Xiao of Zhou deliberately gave the Qin land to Feizi, and the Feizi branch became the emperor of the Surname of Ying, but at that time, Feizi's territory only existed as a vassal of Western Zhou, and did not become a princely state.
Later, Fei's great-grandson Qin Zhong was sent by King Xuan of Zhou to attack Xi Rong, and as a result died at the hands of Xi Rong, his fifth son once again led the 7,000 soldiers given by King Xuan of Zhou to attack Xi Rong and recovered the land of Inuqiu, and Qin Zhong's eldest son Qin Zhuang Was appointed by King Xuan of Zhou as the Grand Master of Xi Rong, and Qin Xiang Duke succeeded to the throne after Qin Zhuang Duke.
During the reign of Duke Xiang of Qin, just in time for the death of King You of Zhou, King You of Zhou, in order to depose Chang Liyou and depose Queen Shen, even sent troops to attack Shen Guo, and as a result, Shen Guo joined forces with The State of Jian and Inu Rong to besiege King Zhou You, and qin, Wei, Zheng, and Jin sent troops to rescue him, but King Zhou You still died, and Shen Guo in turn attacked Inu Rong, and Qin Wei Zheng Jin and others drove Inu Rong back to the west, and the deposed prince succeeded to the throne, that is, King Zhou Ping.
Qin Wei Zheng Jin and others once again escorted the King of Zhou Ping to move east, and the history of Eastern Zhou began, and in the process of saving King You and escorting King Ping to move east, Duke Xiang of Qin led the Qin people to make great contributions. King Ping of Zhou said to Qin Xianggong: "Rong has no way, and has invaded the land of Qi and Feng, and Qin can attack and expel Rong, that is, it has its own land." ”
It means that you have the ability to take the land from the hands of Xi Rong, it is yours, although this is a little unreliable, but the Qin State has really become a princely state, in 770 BC, the Qin State officially became a princely state, began to compete with Xi Rong for land, and then plotted to move east, the heaviest eastward to destroy the Six Kingdoms, unify the world.
