In 770 BC, King Ping of Zhou moved the capital to Luoyi, known in history as Eastern Zhou. King Zhou Ping was the first king of Eastern Zhou and reigned for 51 years, so how old was King Zhou Ping when he ascended the throne?
In 771 BC, Shen Hou, the grandfather of Yiusu the King of Zhouping, joined forces with the state of Zhou and Inuyasha to attack King You of Zhou, who was killed by Inuyasha. Subsequently, the princely states of Shen, Lu, and Xu succeeded ji Yiusu to the throne. In order to avoid the difficulties of inuyasha, Ji Yiusu moved the capital to Luoyi in 770 BC, and was the king of Zhou Ping, known as Eastern Zhou.
The King of Zhou Ping moved the capital to Luoyi, how old was the King of Zhou Ping that year? The year in which King Zhou Ping was born is not recorded in history. King Zhou Ping was the eldest son of King Zhou You, who was 24 years old when he died, and King Yiusu of Zhou Ping was at most a teenager, and the young Tianzi who was about ten years old, how much power he had, decided to move the capital, and also gave the land of Qifeng to the Qin state.
King Zhou Ping ascended to the throne by the strength of the princes, but he had no strength in himself, and he was still young, that is, a puppet supported by the princes.
The move of King Zhou Ping to Luoyi was by no means such a simple matter, but the result of a struggle between the princes.
The eastward migration of the King of Zhou Ping led to a reduction in the land directly ruled by the Zhou Dynasty, and the strength was not as good as that of the medium princes, and they could not command the princely states, and began the Spring and Autumn Warring States Era of the princes' chaos.
King Zhou Ping knew that the consequences of the eastward migration were difficult to say, and Wei Wugong had opposed the eastward migration and also pointed out the harm of the eastward migration.
Did King Ping of Zhou move east to Luoyi, did he decide on his own, or was it coerced by the princes?
What do friends think?
