#Chinese Monster Story Meeting#The first episode of the recent "Legend of the Monster" was to overturn the case of the fox demon Su Daji, who is only a princess of Su Kingdom and has nothing to do with the fox demon and the demise of the Shang Dynasty.
What connects the nine-tailed fox demon with Su Daji is the "Romance of the Gods" written by Xu Zhonglin in the Ming Dynasty. The earliest record of the nine-tailed fox is in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas, Overseas Eastern Sutra", which records that the country of Qingqiu is in the north, and its fox has four legs and nine tails. The nine-tailed fox has nine tails and sounds like a baby crying. In the Xia Shang Zhou era, the nine-tailed fox always appeared as a national auspicious rui. Therefore, people in the Shang and Zhou era would not associate Su Daji with the nine-tailed fox. King Shang and King Wu of Zhou also did not hate Su Daji. So what is Sudaji's true destiny?
Su Daji was originally the princess of the Su Kingdom, which was located in today's Jiaozuo, Henan, and the center of the Shang Dynasty was in today's Anyang. King Shang was evaluated by later generations, and his real name was called Di Xin according to oracle bone records unearthed in Anyang. From the Baidu map, Jiaozuo is 180 kilometers southwest of Anyang, Jiaozuo is located at the junction of Henan and Shanxi, and is also the center of ancient Chinese civilization. It is more familiar to the audience such as the 1988 version of Fu Yiwei. Wen Bixia, Luo Haiqiong, and Fan Bingbing have also acted. But there is a problem, they play Su Daji is actively seducing the Shang King, causing the country to collapse and die, just like the contemporary Zhai Xinxin.
The real Su Daji actually did not take the initiative to seduce the Shang King Di Xin, she was only sent to Chaoge as a prisoner when she was a teenager, and the King of Shun forcibly occupied her when he saw her delicate and fresh. A princess whose country is ruined faces a very cruel and martyred Shang Jun who has to submit. The Su state was only 180 kilometers away from Chaoge, and it was necessary for King Shu to send troops to conquer, indicating that the support of the Shang Dynasty for the central government in the Dixin era had dropped to an extremely dangerous level, so it gave King Wu of Zhou the opportunity to contact the villain Fang Guo to attack the Shang Dynasty. Di Xin had been fighting all his life, and when King Wu of Zhou attacked, the local army was conquering Dongyi in the area of Jiangsu, Shandong, and the Chao Ge army was empty. This led to the successful sneak attack of King Wu of Zhou and the demise of the Shang Dynasty.
The Shang dynasty's policy of constant conquests and humiliating treatment of surrounding countries doomed it. And Princess Daji of the Su Kingdom is only a weak woman who was raped and violated by King Shang. Sadly, King Jifa of Zhou Wu did not pity Xiang Xiangyu, and still executed Daji when he attacked Chaoge.
