A word "Qin" has brought enough glory and pride to Laoshan people. Everyone has recited The Theory of Qin, The Theory of Six Kingdoms and The Fu of Epang Palace at school, and there are countless great works about the success or failure of Qin. However, no matter what later generations of cattle people say and how historians interpret it, the simple fact is that Qin unified the world and destroyed the six countries. Whether it is violence or greed, all comments are actually pale. "Taking the supreme position and making Liuhe, beating and flogging the world" is such a domineering attitude of Qin after Wei Yang's political reform, just like the once popular joke that "I am in Sichuan, so I want to fight" (please use Sichuan dialect for this sentence). "Car on the same track, with the same book homotopy ("the book of rites? The Doctrine of the Mean), that is, the forced infection of Qin changed the whole culture of China. But some Laoshan may be too proud and drunk, and even the advertising words of CCTV xifeng liquor are compiled into "Cars are on the same track, so are books, and so are wines ..." Seriously, wines in other places are really not influenced by Shaanxi and Qin.
Although the word "Qin" basically refers to Shaanxi now, it was not Shaanxi that first called Qin, that is to say, the title of Qin did not originate in Shaanxi, but in Tianshui, Gansu, a neighbor of Shaanxi. Why is this? To discuss this issue, we have to continue to talk about the development history of Qin ancestors.
As mentioned earlier, the ancestors of the Qin people got their surnames from scratch, and with excellent driving skills, they gradually flourished from generation to generation. When they arrived in the period of Zhou Wangxiao in the Western Zhou Dynasty, a man named Fei Zi was born in the descendants of the old Yuan family. He cultivated many good horses for the Zhou Dynasty with excellent grazing techniques and made contributions to the country. The concubine's father's name is Cheng, and her half-brother is the legal heir of his family.
Seeing the princess's contribution to the country, Zhou wanted him to replace his brother as the head of their old Yuan family. Zhou has this idea, but things are not so easy, because this winner can have a very domineering grandfather. Although his grandfather's surname is not Bi, he is ten thousand times more than before Bi's fall. He is Shen Guojun, and he is really a powerful man. Of course, he didn't want others to replace his grandson, saying, "Yesterday, I was the daughter of Li Shan, the wife of Rong Xuxuan. I was born with a passion and went back to Zhou with my relatives, so that Xixiao and Xixiao lived in peace." Today, I was reunited with my wife and had a suitable child. Shen Luo bigamy, XiRong all serve, so it is king. Wang Qitu. ("Historical Records? Qin Shiji ")" What do you mean? It sounds deferential, but there is a needle hidden in the cotton, which expresses a meaning. That is to say, for my grandson's sake, I surrender to you with these ethnic minorities in the western regions, so, well, it's up to you.
Zhou made a determined effort, and did not dare to offend or abolish the inheritance right. After thinking for a long time, his brain opened wide and he came up with a good idea. In those days, Boyi did a good job in farming, was given the surname Yuan by Dashun, and had an old Yuan family. Now I also learn from him. "Today, later generations also stopped their horses for me, and I divided the soil into princes. Qin was in the city, so he resumed the sacrifice of winning and called it Qin. ("Historical Records? Qin Benji ")". Zhou is very generous, and he is very suitable for being a brother. He wants Fatty and his descendants to raise horses for me. I gave him a fief, let him be a vassal state, independently maintain a family business, in order to continue the sacrifice of their victors.
Where is this fief? In the state of Qin, this old man won the title of Qin, which is also the origin of the name "Qin" in the state of Qin, and Fei Zi won the title of Qin. His fifth grandson, Qin Xianggong, was made a vassal for assisting the King and established the State of Qin.
The fief is called Qin, which is the generation of Zhangjiachuan County and Qingshui County in Tianshui City, Gansu Province. From fat boy to giant panda, the ancestors of Qin people have lived in Tianshui for six generations, and they are getting stronger and stronger.
Many people may retort when they see this, because "if you don't live in a dog mound, you must be good at raising horses and livestock, and you must be good at raising them." Dog mountain people say that Zhou, filial piety Wang Zhao makes the main horse in the idle Wei, and the horse is generous. ("Historical Records? Qin Benji ")". Some people see the first sentence, "The concubine lives in the dog hill", thinking that the concubine raises horses in the dog hill, which is now Cao County, Shandong Province. Limited by space, I want to explain this problem in another article.
? Tianshui, the famous hometown of Fuxi, is known as Tianshui. There are many figures named after Qin, such as Qin 'an, Qinling Mountain and.
A few years ago, metal phoenix ornaments left by many Qin people were unearthed in Zhangjiachuan county, some of which were used to decorate clothes, some were used to decorate coffins, some were used to decorate carriages and so on. These phoenix ornaments all have one thing in common: basically, two or four phoenix birds mate, and there is a protruding oval in the middle, like a totem, probably because Qin people want to breed more people. At that time, in order to fight against nature and foreigners, people showed great biological attributes-constantly copying their own genes.
The difference between these ornaments is that they have gradually evolved over time. The image of the phoenix bird on the early ornaments is vivid and simple, which shows that the Qin people were docile and peaceful when they first arrived, which is inevitable. There are other tribes in the periphery of this place, and a strong dragon can't crush the local strongmen. Let's keep a low profile. The phoenix bird on the mid-term ornaments is somewhat abstract. Perhaps with the development of economy, Qin people began to pursue spiritual things and learned what beauty is. With the literary model, they become city dwellers, and of course they can become more and more fierce. In later ornaments, the image of the phoenix bird changed greatly, with a sharp beak, longer than the bird's head, fierce and aggressive, and deeper routines, indicating that Qin people began to become confident and powerful.
