Chen laili

At the beginning of Zhou Dynasty, Chen's surname was mainly Gong Man. According to legend, Hu Gongman is a descendant of Yu Shun, one of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors.

Shun lost his mother when he was young, and his stepmother was inhuman. He was often beaten and abused, but he resigned himself to his fate and showed more respect to his stepmother. He is famous all over the world because he is studious and filial. In the last few years of Emperor Yao, he not only married his two daughters, E Huang and Nv Ying, but also passed on his throne to others. Therefore, when Shun was in power, the world was in power and the people were prosperous. In addition, he often "adjusted the jade candle, rested on the long wind, ate burnt fire and drank away from Liquan", and shared joys and sorrows with the people, so he won the support of more people. After his death, he spread to Hu Gongman in the 33rd century, and was enfeoffed to Chen (now Huaiyang, Henan Province) in BC 1045 (the second year of the founding of the People's Republic of China) to establish a vassal state and defend the royal family. The fief was in Chen (Fuxi built its capital in Wanqiu, and Yandi built its capital in the original site, so it was called Chen, later called), and Wanqiu (the mound with low middle and high sides, now Huaiyang, Henan) was the capital, with the country name Chen. According to the custom of Ji Tuming's surname, Guiman takes the country as his surname, so-called, Chen's ancestor is Chen Shi.

Chen Man (born in 1067 BC) reigned for 60 years, and he was called Chen Hugong. Wang Mang proclaimed himself emperor, established a new dynasty and made him Chen. Buried next to Liuhu Lake (now called Longhu Lake) in Huaiyang County, Henan Province, it is commonly known as the Iron Tomb because of lake erosion.

About 5,000 years ago, the Chen tribe moved eastward with the Huangdi clan to the fertile plain of the Central Plains. Tribes in Chen Feng began to change from nomadic life to agricultural settlement life, and settled in Wanqiu (now Huaiyang County). Zhuan Xu has a state-owned "Mountain of Zhou Chen" (Mountain and Sea Sutra, Huangda South Sutra), and this "Mountain of Zhou Chen" is Wanqiu. Although Wanqiu is famous, it is actually just a small mound with a height of no more than forty or fifty meters. Because it stands on the endless plain, it is particularly eye-catching. After thousands of years of flooding and siltation, the Yellow River and Huaihe River have been buried by sediment for 20 to 30 meters. Today, the remaining Wanqiu is just a small mound slightly above the ground.

At the end of Shang Dynasty, a descendant of Shang Jun, a man named "Shoufu", arrived in Zhou State and became an official of Tao. Because of his superb pottery-making skills, he won the favor of Zhou Wen Wang Jichang. After the establishment of the Zhou Dynasty, the son of Ji Chang () chased the ancestors and adherents, named the son of Ji Chang Chen (now Huaiyang, Henan Province), took the name of Chen State to replace Chen, and betrothed his eldest daughter Tai Ji to him. After Gui Man's death, posthumous title was from Gong Hu, so he was also called Gong Hu. Today, Chen Hu Gong Gui's tomb is at the lakeside of Liu Hu, Huaiyang County, Henan Province. Because the moat flooded into its site, it was blocked by iron, commonly known as the iron tomb.

Chen's capital is Wanqiu, which we are very familiar with now. Although the tribe in Chen Feng was first recorded in ancient books, part of this tribe was integrated into the Huangdi clan, and the other part was sold in historical records.

Chen Feng once said that there is elm in the east gate and elm is white elm, which is still an important tree species in the Yellow River basin and Huaibei area. The water in the car door pool is crystal clear, and the pool is covered with elms. I think the scenery is beautiful. Therefore, Textual Research on Poetic Geography says: "Shi Mao said: The East Gate is a land of hills and valleys. Dai Shi said: Chen Shi often mentions the East Gate, which must be a good place for Chen people to travel. Fan Shi said: Choose a high place and be happy. Wanqiu East Gate should be a place with elegant scenery in the city and a place for Chen Chenmin to play.

Wanqiu was the old capital of Taigao family in Fuxi, ancient Huang San, so there was a painting platform in the north of the city. "It is said that Fuxi got a turtle from Caishui and began to draw eight diagrams." In the northwest of Lisancheng, there is a tomb of Fuxi, which covers an area of about five hectares and is commonly known as the temple of people. Yarrow grows around the tomb, which is several feet high and has a stone tablet in front. No, Fuxi Tomb. Of course, there are also some buildings that have been added and repaired through the ages. However, before the Spring and Autumn Period, Taigaoling and Huahuatai existed, and they were places of entertainment for Chen Guojun citizens. If you climb up here and look far, you can see a panoramic view within 20 miles. This is really a refreshing pleasure. In recent years, many pottery pieces, pipe tiles, slab tiles and rammed soil layers of ancient city walls have been unearthed in Wanqiu area.

After the prosperity of Shun Dynasty, the descendants of Yu Shun once declined in Xia Dynasty and slightly improved in Shang Dynasty. Since the eldest daughter was married to a noble and knighted by Chen, her status has begun to stand out. As a blood relative and vassal of the Zhou Dynasty, Chen was favored by the son of King Wen and later Kang Wang and Zhao Wang.

In the early years of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, Chen, Zhou and Han were both great powers in the Central Plains. Wanqiu, the capital of Chen State, is located in Sanli, the east of Huaiyang County, Henan Province, which is surrounded by Caihe River. The whole territory of Chen is located in the eastern plain of Henan. Qingshui River, Cihe River, Heihe River, Mingxi River and Huiji River, tributaries of Huaihe River, are distributed in the east and flow into Huaihe River from northwest to southwest. Shui Ying, another major tributary of the Huaihe River, and some small tributaries of Shui Ying, such as Liuye River, Jia Luhe River and Shahe River, flow into the Huaihe River from west to southeast to northwest. Of course, the names of these rivers are mostly formed because of the vicissitudes of history. However, Shui Ying is an old name since 2000-3000, but its tributary Liusha River was called Pushui in ancient times. When it was sealed, it was only a hundred miles away from Chen, and there were nearly 800 feudal princes in the early Zhou Dynasty. According to the feudal system of the Zhou Dynasty, the four seas were divided into Kyushu and Fiona Fang. Each country has 30 vassals in Fiona Fang, 60 in Fiona Fang and 120 in Fiona Fang. There are 1773 countries in Kyushu, not counting the governors of these governors. At the same time, it stipulates that the Duke and Marquis countries, Fiona Fang thyme; Seventy miles from Fiona Fang, the earl country; The country of viscount and baron, Fiona Fang 50 li; Small countries less than 50 miles have become vassals of neighboring countries. Chen is not only a country of Hou, but also a country hundreds of miles away. Located in the fertile Central Plains, criss-crossing, flat terrain, endless. It is an advantageous area with rich products and developed culture in ancient times, and it is also said to be the capital of Fuxi Taigao family, which shows the importance of its status and situation.

Chen's territory is on the plain. Not only the land is flat and fertile, but also the ditches are vertical and horizontal, which is beneficial to irrigation. In addition, the climate is mild and suitable for crop growth. This is a rich area with rich products. Therefore, with its unique geographical location, Chen has developed rapidly. In the early years of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, Chen, together with Cai and Zheng, became a big country in the Central Plains and played a decisive role. However, because the monarch of Chen was unable to do his best to govern the country, and the courtiers were unable to help the country wholeheartedly, the monarch was above and the ministers were below, and political corruption led to the decline of the country. In 479 BC, King Hui of Chu invaded the north and killed Chen Minggong, the last monarch of the State of Chen. After Chen died, he set up a county in his hometown.

It took 568 years from Gui Man's sealing of Chen to his death in Chu, and * * * spread to the 20th and 26th generations of kings.

Second, for the descendants of Chen Guogong.

After the State of Chen was annexed by Chu, Chen Yan, the eldest son of Chen Minggong, moved to Huju, Wu Yang, and later moved to Yingchuan. The second person who lives in Gushi is Chen Lian, the second son of Chen Minggong.

In addition, Chen Wan changed his name to Tian, and Tian Qi was founded. At the end of the state of Qi, his third son Wang moved to Yingchuan and resumed his surname Chen. During the period from civil strife to national subjugation, all three descendants of Chen Guogong fled to other places. According to historical records, one of them lives in Chenliu, from Liu Liu, the son of Chen Aigong.
