Does Jiang Ziya really exist? What was Jiang Ziya like in history?

1, Jiang Ziya is a real historical figure.

2. Jiang Ziya lived in the late Shang Dynasty and early Zhou Dynasty. His real name is not Jiang Ziya, but Jiang Shang, and Jiang Shang is also known as Lu Shang. This is mainly because his ancestors made great contributions, so later generations have two surnames.

3. Jiang Ziya was born in poverty. When he was young, he was not as beautiful as we thought. He used to be a butcher and also sold wine. In the first half of his life, it can be said that his appearance is not amazing, but his heart is very strong and ambitious until he meets someone who appreciates him.

4. Jiang Ziya was really a talented person in history. He is handsome, proficient in astronomy and geography, and knows how to use troops. Later, he played a key role in the attack of King Wu. He's like a god.

5. During the Shang Zhouwang period, the country declined, and Zhou Wang favored Su Daji and neglected state affairs. Many governors have set their minds on abolishing Shang Zhouwang. Later, Ji Chang met Jiang Ziya and offered him the position of military adviser, which is the highest position in military management, so later generations will call him Jiang Taigong. Jiang Taigong was the first person to fish with a straight hook in history. He was very good at divination. After King Wu's attack, Jiang Taigong's reputation was ruined. Many people admire his thoughts and his unique way of governing the country.

6. There are many versions of the description of Jiang Ziya, both in history and in myths and legends. Some people say that Jiang Ziya was 72 years old when he made his debut, and he died 1 at the age of 39. But let's think about it, even in today's medical development, centenarians are rare, let alone in those days. So Jiang Ziya's age must be fictitious, but he is real.
