Is the ancient "Xibohou" really accurate?

The so-called "Xibohou" divination is very accurate, but it is only a rendering of fairy tales of later generations, but it cannot deny his literary martial arts.

Xibohou, Ji Chang (former 1 152- former 1056), surnamed Ji, son of King Tai of Zhou, founder of Zhou Dynasty. After his father's death, he inherited the position of Xibohou, so he was called Xibochang. He reigned for 50 years and was a wise king in the history of China.

Sima Qian's Letter to Ren An records that "King Wen was arrested and acted as Zhouyi". His Book of Changes speculates on the changes of nature and society in the form of divination, prompting the internal laws of things' development and changes, which can reflect his finishing work. Although he can't calculate skillfully, he can understand nature and people like Zhuge Liang.

In this book, he transformed Fuxi's innate gossip into gossip. Although gossip is successful, it represents the eight basic attributes of everything in the world. The essence of everything can be abstracted into eight kinds, but the concrete things are endless, and there can't be eight kinds. Therefore, "gossip becomes smaller" and cannot reflect complex changes. "Painting is delayed, touching is long" and "Therefore, it is important to focus on it", that is, every gossip can be regarded as Tai Chi, which is driven by the original gas and overlaps with gossip, thus forming 8864 pictures, reflecting different complex changes in the universe. Then it is deduced into sixty-four hexagrams, and combined with hexagrams, it puts forward a simple dialectical viewpoint of "combining rigidity with flexibility and changing in it"

His masterpiece Zhouyi covers almost all the contents of human society and is known as the "head of the group classics". It uses simple images and numbers, and the opposite changes of Yin and Yang to explain all kinds of complex social phenomena, and displays thousands or even infinite numbers, which has the characteristics of using few to show many, using simplicity to show many and being full of changes.

He endured humiliation, was diligent in political affairs, accepted talents, and practiced clean politics in the early days of feudal system. Later generations praised him as a typical example of being a saint inside and a king outside.
