How did Jiang Ziya know Zhou Wenwang in history?

Before meeting Zhou Wenwang, Jiang Ziya served as a junior official in Shang Dynasty. Later, he gave up his post because he was dissatisfied with Shang Zhouwang's tyranny. He lobbied all the princes in the world, but found nothing, so he lived in seclusion by the Weihe River. Jichang, a Xibe nationality, once divined before going hunting. The Oracle said: What he got was neither a dragon nor a bite, nor a tiger, but the help of the overlord.

After the death of King Wen, King Wu succeeded to the throne, and Jiang Ziya was honored as the master. After several years of preparation, King Wu decided to start the Crusade and carry out divination before going out, which was an ominous omen for the tortoise and triggered a storm. Ministers were frightened. Only Jiang Ziya insisted on marching, so King Wu went to war. After the battle of Makino defeated the army of Shang Dynasty, Zhou Wang set himself on fire in Lutai, the army of King Wu entered the Song Dynasty, and the Shang Dynasty perished.

After King Wu pacified the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, he began to use active ministers. First of all, he sealed Jiang Ziya in Dongying and established Qi State. On the way to Jiang Ziya's eastward conquest, someone said to him, "It's rare, and it's easy to lose it." . The guests slept soundly, making it almost impossible to go to the country. Hearing this, Jiang Ziya got dressed and arrived in Qi at dawn. Just in time to lead the troops to attack Yingshan. It turns out that Yingqiu is adjacent to Laiguo, and Lairen is Dongyi. They took advantage of the rebellion of Shang and Zhou Dynasties, and the Zhou Dynasty was just pacified, unable to pacify the distant place, so they competed with Jiang Ziya for territory.

When Jiang Ziya arrived in Qi, he cultivated politics. Because of his vulgarity, simplicity and propriety, industry and commerce benefited from fish and salt, so the people joined Qi State and became a big country among princes. After King Wu died of illness, the young Zhou Chengwang ascended the throne, assisted by Zhou Gongdan, which caused dissatisfaction among his younger brothers Guan Shu and Cai Shu. They joined forces with Wu Geng, the son of Zhou Wang, to launch a rebellion, and Huai Yi of Lian Dongfang also launched a rebellion.

Therefore, Duke Zhou sent someone to summon Duke Kang and informed Jiang Ziya: East to the sea, west to the Yellow River, south to Muling and north to Wudi. Here, the governors of the five sense organs and officials from all over the country will order you to crusade if you are guilty. So Qi can conquer other countries and form the de facto leader of the eastern countries. Finally, with the support of Jiang Ziya, Zhou Gongdan completely put down the rebellion and stabilized the Zhou Dynasty.
