Chapter 478 Asking for credit and imitating the Central Plains
In the afternoon, when the weather turned cooler, Quan Cong continued to read the bamboo slips about the Chenluo Kingdoms. Several good news came from the front.
"Report, Da Sima, our army has captured Pingguo!" This was sent back quickly after lunch.
In the evening, another guard came in and reported: "Da Sima, our vanguard has captured Fangxian, Anshi, and Wenxian. It is expected that we will be able to advance to Xiangping City as soon as tomorrow afternoon!"
After reading the battle report, Quan Cong said happily: "The soldiers are really brave. I will ask Your Majesty for merit for them!"
In the evening, the gunpowder smoke ahead had temporarily dissipated, and the soldiers of the Wu army who were scattered to attack the four cities were cleaning the battlefield. They breathed a sigh of relief under the setting sun, thankful that they were still alive.
Quan Cong was happy and continued to pick up the bamboo slips on the table and read them. When he saw the origin of Jilin Kingdom, Quan Cong sighed: "These Chenluo countries are imitating me in the Central Plains in every way!"
After all, every founding monarch in the Central Plains from ancient times to the present would have people add some miraculous things to themselves to consolidate the legitimacy of the dynasty...
After Confucianism ascended the throne, many years later, on his deathbed, it was revealed that this "cake-biting final" indeed had historical origins. "Jie Jie Ben Ji" records:
When Confucianism was about to die, he said: "The former king Gu Ming said: 'After my death, the elder and wiser person, regardless of son or son-in-law, will succeed to the throne.' Therefore, the widow was established first. Now it is appropriate to pass on his throne."
It turns out that the late king was the one who succeeded to the throne as an older and more virtuous person as stated clearly in Nanjie Cicixiong's will, that is, he who was older rather than more toothy and wiser took the throne.
Therefore, Ruli may actually be younger than Tuojie, and Tuojie may have lost to his brother-in-law through trickery, and Ruli should be well aware of this.
In any case, the fact is that Nanjie's son Ruli and son-in-law Tuojie came to the throne one after another.
But how to explain the different final words of Confucianism recorded in "The Benji of Confucianism"?
The king did not ask, and said to Chen Liao: "I am a relative of the United Kingdom, and I am serving as an assistant minister. I have repeatedly won fame. My second son is not as talented as Yuan Yuan. After my death, I will give him the high position, so as not to forget my legacy."
Confucianism here says that Tuojie is a relative of the country, an auxiliary minister, a hero, and his talents are far better than those of princes. Therefore, Confucianism's last words of passing on the throne to Tuojie. This historical material emphasizes Confucianism, not Nanjie, and directly passes the throne to Tuojie.
untie.
At this point, is the elephant in the room becoming more and more real? Shengjie is portrayed as omnipresent and popular. He is a sage from the moment he appears and is about to become the fourth generation king.
Tuojie was born in a place called Duobana country, which is a thousand miles northeast of the Japanese country.
Once upon a time, the king married the princess of the female kingdom as his wife. She became pregnant for seven years and gave birth to a large egg.
The king believed that the egg was inauspicious and should be thrown away. The queen couldn't bear it, so she wrapped the egg and some treasures in silk, placed it in a coffin, and let it float away from the sea.
The wooden coffin first floated to the seaside of Jingguan Kingdom. People were very surprised and did not dare to touch it. This Jingguan was later one of the Gaya Kingdoms sandwiched between the two powerful countries of Silla and Baekje. This shows that its people lacked discernment.
Then he drifted to the mouth of Azhenpukou in Chenhan, in the thirty-ninth year of Heju's reign.
At Chenhan Beach, an old mother used a rope to pull a wooden coffin to the shore. She opened it and found a child inside.
The old mother took her home and raised her, and the child grew up. He was "nine feet long, handsome and intelligent." Because the child didn't know his last name, it is said that when the treasure tree first came, there was a flying magpie accompanying it, so the radical of the word "magpie" was omitted.
, with Xi as the surname, and when it comes out of the coffin, it is called Tuojie.
If you want to tell a story with a rich and lively plot, it still needs to be an official and wild history.
Where and how does liberation come from? What twists and turns are there during the process? Official history obviously cannot satisfy the curiosity of ordinary people, but eminent monks are good at capturing the hearts of listeners.
A ship came to dock in the sea of Jialuo Kingdom.
First of all, the boat is much larger than a small wooden raft.
In the Kingdom of Jialuo, also known as the Kingdom of Gaya, the king made his first appearance and his subjects greeted him with clamor, hoping to stay. This setting makes the characters on the ship even more noble.
However, being noble leads to being cold, so the ship flew away from Jialuo Kingdom and flew to Azhenpo east of Jilin.
There was an old woman in Ajinpo, named Ajin Eui-seon, who was the mother of King Haechi. Her character was more than what was recorded in the history books, and she was not an ordinary village woman.
Even so, A Zhenyi saw the flying ship first and was full of doubts: "There were no rocks in this sea, why are the magpies gathering and singing?" So he went out to find out, and found that the magpies were gathering on a boat, and there was a bottle of magpie in the boat.
Even the dimensions are known accurately. It is twenty feet long and thirteen feet wide.
Azhenyi first towed the boat to the foot of a forest, not knowing whether it was bad luck or good luck, so he prayed to the sky for blessings.
The foreshadowing was enough, and the suspense was rising. Let's open the bottle and see what it was. She couldn't wait but opened it anxiously, and inside, there was "a decent man, and a full load of seven treasure slaves."
What are these high-match couples if they are not gods? Azhenyi first supported him for seven days, and then the man leisurely recounted his origins: "I am from the Dragon City country. There are twenty-eight dragon kings in our country, who were born from human wombs and ascended to the throne at the age of five or six.
When I came to the throne... my father, King Hamda Po Ping, made the king's daughter his concubine. He had no children for a long time, so he prayed for peace, and seven years later he laid a large egg..."
He explained in a serious manner that the Dragon City Kingdom was a thousand miles northeast of the Japanese Kingdom. The son of the Dragon King was already extraordinary, and he was even more miraculous because he laid eggs after seven years (although he laid eggs after seven years here, it can actually be understood as seven years of pregnancy).
After the king made some good and bad words, instead of letting the queen abandon her, he ordered someone to make a boatload of rice wine, which was also a seven treasure and a slave. Not only that, he also sent a blessing when he floated on the sea: "You will be destined to be here."
A land to build a country and a family.”
And sent a red dragon to protect the ship. The king's words are more important, and the narrator uses his words to clarify the intention of establishing the government. How is the king's behavior an exile? It is more like a careful escort.
Regarding the tracing of Jiejie's life experience, it is obvious that the official history emphasizes the king's filial piety, knowledge, and wisdom, which are generally Confucian standards, while the unofficial history is blindly mystical and is a Buddhist exaggeration preached to the public.
However, both of them reached the same goal by different paths, and they both tried their best to highlight Jiejie's "virtue" beyond ordinary people. It was reasonable and legal for him to be honored as a great treasure with a different surname. When Quan Cong saw this, he thought that these Luochen countries still imitate everything.
The original work is true, but the space is small, and everything I imitate is similar in form but not in spirit.
Before Tuojie came to the throne, he was in Nanjie. He served as an official in the Confucian and Neo-Confucian dynasties, and his administration was consistent after he ascended the throne. During Tuojie's reign, Xu Luofa was full of enthusiasm and prosperity from the inside out.
Confucianism implemented drastic political reforms. The six branches of Chenhan that existed during the ancestor period were the foundation of the Silla country.
In the ninth year of Confucianism (AD 32), the names of the six tribes were changed and each was given a surname.
The six tribes are now Liang tribe, Shaliang tribe, Jianliang tribe, Benbi tribe, Hanzhi tribe, and Xibi tribe, with the surnames of Li, Cui, Sun, Zheng, Pei, and Xue respectively. The original surname of the royal family is Pu, and the surname of the royal family is Xi.
This is the inevitable result of political growth and social development, and can also be regarded as an important manifestation of rectifying the aristocratic order and consolidating royal power.
Regarding the six tribes, there are two other things during the Confucianism period: First, Goguryeo appeared again in the Silla Chronicles. This time, Goguryeo's King Dawu attacked Lelang and destroyed Lelang. Five thousand residents of Lelang came to surrender and were "separated into six tribes."
This is a clever move, and it comes after "Wang established the Six Parts", which shows that the six parts are snowballing.
Another thing is that Confucianism divided the six tribes into two, and ordered the two princes and daughters to lead the women of the tribe to compete in ma competitions in July and August.
This "labor skills competition" demonstrated the king's leadership of the six ministries, and at the same time showed Silla's aggressive attitude.
The setting of official grades has a more direct relationship with politics. Similar to the introduction of official grades in Baekje, Goguryeo and later the Japanese state, these titles retain official names with local background and are influenced by the political civilization of the Central Plains dynasties.
In the ninth year of Confucianism (AD 32), seventeen levels of officials were set up, namely Yifafan, Yichifan, Yingfan, Bozhenfan, Daafang, Afan, Yijifan, Shafan, and Jifa
Shan, Da Naima, Naima, Dasha, Xiaoshe, Jishi (Ji Zhi), Da Wu (Da Wu Zhi), Xiao Wu (Xiao Wu Zhi), Zhuo Wei (Xian Ju Zhi).
There is no Daifu among them, but Duke Hu was appointed as Daifu immediately after he was freed from liberation and ascended the throne, which shows that the seventeenth-level officials have not yet fully implemented it.
It was not until the eleventh year of liberation (67 AD) that Shunzhen was appointed as Yifashang and "entrusted with political affairs". The Daifu withdrew from the stage of history, and the seventeenth-level official officially appeared.
There are also new measures in the local military and political affairs, such as releasing the Park family's noble relatives and dividing them into domestic states and counties, with the titles of state lord and county lord.
This was obviously a measure to balance the power of the Park family and consolidate local rule after foreigners took over Jincheng. The names of prefectures and counties can also be seen as emulating the local system of the Han Dynasty.
In addition to the six ministries and officials, the new country title was also clearly formulated. It was one night in March of the ninth year of liberation (AD 65) that the sound of cockcrow came from Shilin in the west of Jincheng.
After dawn, Duke Tuojie Minghu went to investigate and found a small golden tree hanging on the tree branch, and a white chicken crowed under the tree.
Inside the golden coffin was a man of extraordinary appearance.
This is another scenario of a big egg or a child falling from the sky.
Tujie said happily, "Isn't it God's gift to me?" The child grew up and turned out to be smart. He came out of a golden coffin, and his surname was Jin.
What is even more striking is that the Jilin Kingdom was born...
