Ji Zha
Yan's ancestor is
Yan ji zi. Ji Zha is not only the ancestor of Yan, but also the ancestor of Wu and Yanling. In the General History of Surnames in China-Wu, it is mentioned that "when it comes to Wu, we can't help but mention Wu, the fourth son of Wang Shoumeng. The history of Ji Zha is not just written in the ji zi Temple. " There are three reasons: first, he gave way twice, and his life was accompanied by the rise and fall of Wu; Secondly, Ji Zha is not only versatile, but also benevolent and modest, and is praised as the "third moral person" by later generations, which is a milestone in the history of moral development in China. Third, Ji Zha's descendants are very developed. Today, most of Wu's genealogy comes from his ancestors.
Ji Zha's ancestor was Taibo of the Zhou Dynasty, and he was once praised by Confucius as a "virtuous man". Taibo was originally the heir to the throne of the Zhou Dynasty, but his father, Tai Wang, intended to pass it on to his youngest son, Ji Li, and his grandson. Often with Ji Chang. So Taibo voluntarily gave up the throne and fled to the barren land in the name of collecting herbs, and established the State of Wu. Confucius once said, "Tai Bo is extremely virtuous. Third, people get nothing from the world. 」
Ji Zi in Yanling was the fourth son of Wu Guoshou's dream in the Spring and Autumn Period. Ji Zha, also known as Gongzi Maru, was sealed in Yanling and became the Ji Zi of Chengling. Later, the state was sealed, saying that Yanzhou had come to ji zi. Father Shoumeng wants to stand up and resign. Brother, fans want to let go and quit. Zhu Fan died and his brother died. I sacrificed, I ruined. If you die, you will be granted the country. No need. Liao Li, son of barbarians. Childe light to assassinate the current and self-reliance, namely He Lu. Although Zagreb was convinced, he cried at Liao's grave.
Ji Zha made this country.
Ji Zha, a native of the State of Wu in the Zhou Dynasty, was also named "Yan Ji Ling Zi" because he was sealed in the Yanling Dynasty. His father, Shou Meng, inherited the State of Wu. Among his four sons, Ji Zha, the fourth son, is the most virtuous, so Shoumeng always intended to give him the throne. Ji Zha's brothers also loved him very much, and thought that Ji Zha's virtue and talent were the best candidates to succeed to the throne, so they all rushed to support him. But Ji Zha refused to accept the throne and insisted on passing it on to his brother.
Zhu Fan, his younger brother, felt that his virtue was far inferior to that of Ji Zha, and wanted to entrust him with the important task of governing the country, but Ji Zha politely declined. He said: Cao's people wanted Zang, a talented son, to become the monarch instead of immorality, but Zang refused. Zi Zang, in order to stick to the due loyalty of his subjects and dispel the idea of popular support among Chinese people, left Cao State and defected to the Song Dynasty, so that Cao Guojun could still take power. Zi Zang's unassailable virtue is praised as a sage who can "keep the festival". Yin Jian, once a sage, is vividly in my mind. Where is the throne that Ji Zha wants? Although I have no virtue, I am persistent in praying for more virtue than a saint.
Ji Zha's kindness touched the people of Wu, who, like all stars, were determined to support Ji Zha as king. As a last resort, Ji Zha lived in seclusion between mountains and rivers and worked hard all day to show his firm determination, which completely dispelled the idea of Wu people. Confucius praised Ji Zha for surrendering to the country: "Yanling ji zi is a natural person!"
Ji Zha hung a sword.
Ji Zi was knowledgeable and hired many vassal states of the Central Plains to meet with Yan Ying, Zi Chan and Shu Xiang. Hire Lu to meet him. After Xu, Xu Jun prepared his sword to go to various countries, but he didn't present it immediately. Also, Xu Jun is dead, but there is a sword hanging on Xu Jun's tomb tree. Later, "hanging a sword" was used as an allusion to commemorate or maintain trust with a dead friend. Also known as the death of friends.

Ji Zha and Confucius were contemporaries, older than them, and they were equally famous. At that time, it was also called "Nanji North Sky". Sima Qian praised Ji Zha as a good man. According to Chunqiu, in 485 BC, Ji Zha died and was buried in the southwest of Shenzhen and Hong Kong. Later generations built the ji zi Temple next to the mausoleum and erected a monument in front of it. It is said that the inscription "Alas, there is a tomb of Ji Zi in Wu Yanling" was written by Confucius (now there are only two words called Confucius' calligraphy, and the other is the word "Yin Bi Gan's tomb" on Bi Gan's tombstone). Today, the seat of Shengang Middle School is the original site of ji zi Temple. During Kangxi's southern tour, he wrote an inscription for ji zi Temple "Let Deguang come first". The book The Legend of Qianlong also mentioned that he had been to ji zi for the sixth time. Ji, Ji, Wu, Shou (Shou Meng) and Yan are all ancestors. Even today, extended surnames have been circulating for 2,500 years.
The humility, courtesy, extraordinary ambition and foresight of the sages have been shining in the long sky of China history. Behind the historical story of "Ji Zha ceded territory", there is an untraceable theme. People in the Central Plains and Juwu are brothers of the same ancestor. In the ancient land of China, thousands of people in Qian Qian have the same roots and the same body.
