During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there was a typical event of the collapse of the ceremony, that is, the Tian clan Daiqi, which was the main event that the Eastern Zhou Tianzi was abandoned by everyone, and it was also one of the reasons that directly led to the inability of Zhou Li to continue to adapt to the society at that time.
From the current point of view, although the Tian Clan Daiqi is not moral enough, but their process is very inspiring, a family exiled from another country, through the efforts of more than a dozen generations of a total of 286 years, finally successfully became the monarch of the country where it lives, which is a legendary story, so after the Tian Clan Daiqi, where did the original Jiang surname Lü family go?
Before the Han Dynasty, surnames and surnames were generally separated, surnames represented the identity of a large ethnic group, and surnames were branches of ethnic groups, the ancients used surnames to distinguish ethnic groups, and used clans to distinguish ethnic branches, the nobles of the State of Qi were originally surnamed Jiang, but there were more clans that branched out, and it was the Lü family that controlled the main power of the State of Qi at that time.
The Tian clan in the Tian clan was actually not this clan at the beginning, the ancestor of the Tian clan, Chen Quan, was originally the Duke of Chen Guo, he was the son of Chen Ligong, when Chen Ligong and his two brothers Chen Zhuanggong and Chen Xuangong jointly murdered Chen Tuo, it was agreed that the three brothers would take turns to be the monarch, the first was Chen Ligong, after Chen Ligong abdicated, Chen Zhuanggong ascended the throne, after Chen Zhuanggong abdicated, his younger brother Chen Xuangong ascended the throne.
During the period of Chen Xuangong, the crown prince Yu Kou and Chen Quan had a very good relationship, but Yu Kou was not appreciated by Chen Xuangong, and finally was killed by Chen Xuangong, Chen Quan was worried that the next person to be implicated was himself, so he quickly fled to the State of Qi, as to why he would flee to the State of Qi, mainly because before his father Chen Ligong ascended the throne, some people divination said that Chen Guan would become a great instrument in the future, but he could not stay in the State of Chen, and should go to the State of Qi, so Chen Quan fled to the State of Qi first.
Chen Quan's original surname was Concubine, and the clan was Chen, but after he arrived in the State of Qi, in order to show that he had no relationship with Chen Guo, he changed Chen to Tian, and from then on, there was also the Tian clan. When Chen Quan first arrived in the State of Qi, it was 672 BC, it belonged to the era of the Duke of Qi Huan, the State of Qi wanted to become the overlord of the Spring and Autumn Period, and was in urgent need of talents to use, Qi Huan Gong saw Chen Guan's talent, and wanted to make him a secretary, but the flattered Chen Quan said that he was only an exile, Qi Huan Gong was satisfied with his food and did not dare to take on this big responsibility, Qi Huan Gong saw that Chen Quan had always insisted on not being sealed, deeply moved by his integrity, and appointed him as the "Gongzheng" position in charge of hundreds of workers, and from then on, Chen Quan survived in the State of Qi. Gradually, the offspring were reproduced.
After Chen Quan settled in the State of Qi, he married a woman of the State of Qi, gave birth to a child and continued to live in peace in the State of Qi, unconsciously the Tian clan took root in the State of Qi for a hundred years, in 550 BC, Tian Wan's fifth grandson Tian Huanzi (Tian Wuyu) took the first step in the rise of the Tian clan, when Tian Huanzi defied the public opinion, insisted on sending troops to conquer the Wei state and the Jin state, and finally won a great victory, the Duke of Qi Hou Zhuang was very satisfied with the achievements of Tian Huanzi, greatly appreciated, and made him a secretary, and later Tian Huanzi also married the daughter of the Duke of Qi Houzhuang as his wife. Thus began the journey of the rise of the Tian clan.
After Tian Huanzi gained power, he united with the Bao, Gao, and Luan clans to destroy the Qing clan of the Qi state at that time, prompting the State of Qi to enter the era of luan and Gao's power, and the Tian clan, as a newly rising large family, has since entered the central system of power in the State of Qi, but it is still impossible for the Tian clan in this period to seize power.
After Tian Huanzi gained the trust of the monarch, the Tian clan has officially stepped onto the stage of history, and then Tian Huanzi's son Tian Beg helped Tian Clan to win the hearts and minds of the Qi people, in the Tian Beg period, he relied on the huge wealth of the family and his unique status advantage to lend money to the people, lend grain to those poor people, when borrowing according to the big bucket, when the time to take it back, the people are very grateful to Tian Beg's move, relying on such an action, Tian Beg let the Tian family get the love of the people of the Country of Qi.
Relying on the efforts of Tian Huanzi and Tian Qi's father and son, the Tian clan has won the hearts of the monarch and the people in the state of Qi, and now it only needs to continue to gain more power, and it is easy for the Tian clan to replace the Lü clan.
It can be said that the descendants of the Tian clan are a stronger than one, and there is a situation in which Qing is better than blue, after Tian Beg's death, his son Tian Chang inherited his great cause, Tian Chang instigated the Qi state grand master Bao Xi to kill the Qi Mourning Gong that he was not accustomed to, and established the Qi Jian Gong, and later in order to eradicate the Bao clan and the Yan clan, two families that affected their real power, Tian Chang launched a coup d'état, killing the two surnames, killing the Qi Jian Gong by the way, and establishing the Qi Ping Gong instead.
At this point, the Tian family has completely grasped the real power of the State of Qi under the efforts of Tian Beg and Tian Chang's father and son, and later through the efforts of Tian Chang's son Tian Xiangzi and grandson Tian Zhuangzi, the Tian family has only one step away, and this step is international recognition.
In 391 BC, Tian Zhuangzi's grandson Tian He inherited the great cause of the Tian clan, he was not accustomed to the monarch of the State of Qi, directly exiled the Duke of Qi Kang to the sea, gave him a city to collect taxes to support himself and sacrifice his ancestors, the Tian clan in this period, completely controlled the real power of the State of Qi, the original noble lü clan of the State of Qi, has long been great power, and ended up with a tragic end of resignation.
In 386 BC, after the three families were divided into Jin, Wei Zhao and Han three kingdoms were recognized by Zhou Tianzi, Tian He seized the opportunity, and finally under the guidance of the State of Wei, successfully obtained the official canonization of the King of Zhou'an, and from then on, the Tian clan officially replaced the Lü clan and became the monarch of the State of Qi, as to why the Tian clan did not change the state name at that time, mainly because the title of Qi was more appealing, and changing the state name was too difficult and had no practical significance.
In fact, in the process of the Tian clan gradually gaining real power in the state of Qi and eradicating dissidents, the Lü clan was basically eradicated by the Tian clan, and even those Bao clans, Gao clans, and Luan clans who had threatened the real power of the Tian clan were all eradicated by the Tian clan, and they absolutely could not leave the Lü clan to have an impact on their own status.
Judging from the historical records, we will find that the Duke of Qi Kang was the last survivor of the Lü clan, he was banished to the sea by Tian He in 391 BC, and at first gave the Duke of Qi Kang a city to collect taxes to support himself, and within a few years, Tian He directly took back the city in anger, and the Duke of Qi Kang instantly became nothing, and could only survive in the wilderness on an isolated island, and finally died in 379 BC, that is, in the seventh year after Tian He obtained the title of King of Zhou'an.
Originally, only the Duke of QiKang was left in the Lü clan, and as a result, the Duke of Qi Kang had no descendants, so after arriving at the Duke of Qi Kang, the Lü clan was basically extinct, so the historical records also recorded that after the death of the Duke of Qi Kang, there was no record of the old lord of the State of Qi, Lü Shi.
Although the Lü family lineage, after the Tian clan Dai Qi, is basically extinct, but we can see from the previous history, the Tian family in the Tian Huanzi period, has already married the daughter of the Duke of Qi Hou Zhuang as a wife, from this point of view, from Tian Huanzi, in fact, the descendants of the Tian clan line are flowing with the blood of the Lü clan, the two have long been fused together, it is inseparable, the descendants of the Tian clan have half of the Lü clan's blood!
