Things have to start from 11 A.D., this year is the third year of Wang Mang to win the world of the Han Dynasty, the year name was established, in the autumn, the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River rained for more than 20 days in a row, the river water swelled, broke above the Yuancheng of Wei County, the river was rippling, wrapped in mud and sand, like a wild horse that had escaped and rumbled to the northeast, and several counties east of Qinghe County became Zeguo. In history, Wang Mang was afraid that after the breach was blocked, the river would overflow and overflow again, and it would flood the ancestors of the Wang family not far downstream, so the duel mouth was no longer blocked. In the cultural concept dominated by Confucianism, the encroachment and usurpation of the order of the monarch and the minister is a great rebellion"recommended by the people", and then had to accept the Zen concession of Confucian Ziying, and finally left an infamy in the "Book of Han": "Reckless and evil talents, in order to become a usurper." Even if he has been characterized as a person harboring evil intentions, it is logical for Wei Jun to break his mouth and not block it, saying that he is ignoring the flood for the sake of his family's selfish interests. But don't forget, when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the gourd mouth in the southwest of Puyang burst the embankment, and it took 23 years to be blocked, and when the mouth was blocked, the subjects went up together, and the bamboo in the Qi River area was cut down, which shows that it was not easy to block the mouth under the conditions at that time. Wang Mang has only been in power for 15 years, and if the break is not blocked in time, it may be that he is not enough, why has it become a private family? There may be two reasons, one is because Wang Mang is a usurper and traitor, and there is no need to discuss the slander against him, and the other is because the former residence of Wang Mang's family has been famous more than 600 years ago, and it is easy to be convincing to attack him.
Yuancheng of the Han Dynasty is the great name of Hebei today, 25 miles east of the county seat, there are five sand dunes in ancient times to the Western Zhou Dynasty, more than ten miles long, stand on the east bank of the Yellow River in the northeast to southwest direction, written in the early Warring States period, the "Biography of Mu Tianzi" called it "Yutai", and it is recorded that King Mu of the Western Zhou Dynasty came many times when he was paraded, and hunted here, "Xin Wei, hunting the beast of the dragon." So the white deer escaped. That is to say, when hunting, he was hit by a white deer and drove the car, because "牾" and "five" have the same sound, and it is also called Wulu Mountain or Shalu Mountain. Sheng Ji, a favorite concubine of King Zhou Mu, also met here. In fact, in the Western Zhou Dynasty, the Chinese ancestors who originated from the Yellow Emperor's lineage were very weak, and there were many non-Chinese tribes in the north to Xingtai and Shanxi in the west, and they often attacked the vassal states. In order to defend against these tribes, the tougher Duke of Qi Huan was defeated in Wulu in 658 BCZhongmu, Ye, Gaihe (now Heshun, Shanxi), and Sheqiu built fortresses to defend the land of Zhuxia. Wulu City on Shalu Mountain was our north gate at that time.
Then, such a famous mountain and big mound, 12 years later in 646 B.C., but suddenly collapsed and fell into the ground, and the historical records did not say that this matter was because of the first reason, "Spring and Autumn" contained: Lu Xi Gong 14 years of August Xinmao, Shalu landslide, blocking the Yellow River. Although the information was inconvenient at that time, such an important and strange event was still spread in the vassal states, according to the "Book of Han. The Biography of the Later Yuan Dynasty records that after the spread of this matter, the ** divination of the Jin State responsible for divination said: Yin is yang male, earth and fire are multiplied, and there should be a prosperous woman in the next 645 years. In the Han Dynasty, in order to confirm the legitimacy of his usurpation of the Han Dynasty and not against the will of heaven, Wang Mang issued the "Great Message" in the second year of his regency, saying that "ancient prophecies are written and enjoyed in the present", and the empress dowager was bornThe right of the sand deer in Yuancheng, the auspicious of the yin spirit heroine Shengming. Create momentum for Liu Da with the surname Wang.
So, how is the surname of King Yuancheng connected with the collapse of the sand deer that shocked the world and the ancient proverb that has been passed down for a long time?
During the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, there was a person named Wang He in the royal family of Dongpingling (Shandong Licheng), and the official was embroidered in the imperial history. At that time, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty used troops against the Xiongnu for many years, and the conquest continued, resulting in heavy labor, and the people were unbearable, and the people in Wei County, Hebei Province became bandits, and Wang He was ordered to inspect and supervise the local search and suppression. He is generous and peaceful by nature, and he often raises his noble hand and does not kill the bandits who are forced to join the gang for their livelihood, admonishing and educating them; And the embroidered clothes sent to other places, such as the violent victory and others, have killed more than 10,000 people in order to suppress the popular rebellion and invite merit and reward. Wang He was dismissed from his post because of his ineffective service, and after he returned to his hometown, he laughed at himself and said: I have heard that if you save a thousand descendants, you can be appointed as an official, and there are more than 10,000 people who have survived because of me, and I don't know if my descendants can prosper!
Soon, Wang He had a dispute with a local Wang clan, someone in the clan was an official in Beijing, and was favored by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, in order to avoid being **, Wang He moved his family to Yuancheng in Wei County. Because of the good cause and good name sown in Wei County before, the people of Yuancheng treated the newcomer surnamed Wang clansmen well, a local old man who was famous and built, recommended a place to the Wang family to settle down, and told Wang He about the ancient proverbs that have been handed down since the Spring and Autumn Period, saying that this is a treasure land with aura, located in the Shalu Mountain that is trapped in the sand ruins, and the Wang family is kind to Wei County, and its virtue may be suitable for this place. Wang Heju lived here, and then gradually became a village, called Weisuli.
After Wang He lived here, he was really prosperous and had two sons, the eldest son Wang Ban and the second son Wang Hong; Wang Ban gave birth to four girls and eight boys, the second queen Zhengjun is the queen of Xiaoyuan of the Western Han Dynasty, history said that she is also like her grandfather, Su Huai is benevolent, and soon gave birth to a son Liu Qi, and later inherited the unification, for the Han Dynasty Emperor Cheng. Wang Ban's second son Wang Man, died early, his son is Wang Mang, taking his father's title as the new marquis, when he was young, he was cautious in his words and deeds, filial piety and deference, honest and simple, lenient to others, famous for his virtue, and established a new dynasty in 8 A.D. after winning fame, known as "Emperor Jianxing of the New Dynasty". From Wang Zhengjun to this, the surname of the king of Yuancheng has been a queen, an emperor, and ten marquises, and he has become a big family in the Western Han Dynasty, and Xuanhe is in later generations.
The rise of the Yuancheng Wang clan is due to fate or the ancestors have indeed accumulated profound yin virtues, I really dare not say in vain, but considering the ancient proverbs that began to circulate in the Spring and Autumn Period, it is inevitable to make mistakes if these factors are completely denied; In fact, in ancient times, those who knew how to understand the math of easy reasoning mostly recognized the causal connection, and we should be inspired by it, but doing good deeds and showing more kindness may really be able to be used by future generations.
