The beginning of the decline of the royal family of the Zhou Dynasty, or the beginning of being beaten by the princes and kings of all walks of life, was the relocation of the capital of the Zhou Dynasty. But the reason why the Zhou Dynasty continued to decline was not only because of the relocation of the capital. <>
In fact, the idea of the Zhou Dynasty royal family about moving the capital existed for a long time. As early as the beginning of the establishment of the Zhou Dynasty, King Wu of Zhou, Zhou Gongdan and others all wanted to move the capital, but because Luoyi's defensive ability was too much worse than that of Hojing, they could not put it into practice. In addition, the strength of British businessmen still existed at that time.
Therefore, the idea of the royal family of the Zhou Dynasty to move the capital to Luoyi in the Central Plains has not been realized.
As for why the royal family of the Zhou Dynasty wanted to move the capital to the Central Plains so much, this was actually the Central Plains complex. Because in ancient times, we often used the Central Plains regime to represent the dynasties, and in ancient times, only when the Central Plains was truly occupied, then this could be regarded as the establishment of a standard Central Plains regime. <>
As we mentioned earlier, although the royal family of the Zhou Dynasty wanted to move the capital to Luoyi, they were reluctant to move the capital to Luoyi, a well-defended city, and they were not worried about the defensive ability of Luoyi, so they never made a move. And it was Shen Guo and Dog Rong who really "helped" Zhou Tianzi at that time--- King Zhou You made up his mind to move the capital. They jointly attacked the territory of the Zhou Dynasty royal family, and the capture of Haojing made the Zhou Dynasty royal family a lost dog, and they made up their minds to move the capital.
As for why Shen Guo and Dog Rong joined forces to hook up with the Zhou Dynasty royal family, which involved a series of complex political events, we don't want to talk about it here, the main reason is because the Zhou Dynasty royal family harmed the interests of Shen Guo. <>
In this forced relocation of the capital, the only new force of the Zhou Dynasty royal family was also consumed. In short, Zhou Tianzi, who originally had only a small advantage in the relationship between the major princes, consumed most of his strength in this Qian Capital operation, causing his authority to decline and collapse. After that, a series of chain reactions occurred, and all the vassal states could ride on Zhou Tianzi's head and hang him.
-
It is true that after King Zhou Ping moved eastward, Zhou Tianzi did not immediately fall to the point of being beaten by the princes, and there was still a process of being gradually hanged and beaten.
-
I think it's not just because of the move of the capital, everything has a cause and there must be an effect, there are many reasons.
-
Yes, it is true that his move to the capital caused others to be very angry. That's why he was beaten by a lot of people. So it's also very miserable. It is also rare in history.
-
It is not only because he moved the national capital, but because King Zhou Ping's personal virtue was despised and spurned by the princes, plus Zhou Tianzi's territory is getting smaller and smaller, and it is not as big as other princes, eating and drinking are problems, of course, he can be beaten by princes from all walks of life.

After the establishment of the Western Zhou Dynasty, the king of Zhou enjoyed absolute authority over the recipients, who not only had to obey orders and pay tribute, but also worshipped, reported work, and had the obligation to send troops to fight. The authority of the Zhou royal family was lost. The princes no longer obeyed the orders of the king of Zhou, nor did they take him seriously.
<> we all know that there is an idiom called"Debt is piling up", it is said that the last emperor of the Zhou Dynasty, King Zhou Nan, listened to Chu Xiaolie's demagogy, and used the correct name to call it the Six Expeditions of the Qin Dynasty, and cobbled together the 6,000 soldiers who invaded King Chu Xiaolie to the Western Zhou Dynasty. Due to the lack of military strength of King Nan Zhou, he had to borrow money from all the rich landlords and the Six Kingdoms, and because he did not listen to the command of King Nan Zhou, the money he borrowed was quickly used up, so the rich creditors came to collect debts, and in desperation, King Xiao of Chu had to hide himself on the high platform of the palace. from"Debt is piling up", we can see the embarrassing situation of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty at this time.
Not only did the living have no money, but even the king of Zhou had no money to build a mausoleum to bury him.
How could such an Eastern Zhou Dynasty restore its former glory? The Zhou Dynasty entered the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and was just a pretended emperor. As the power of the Zhou dynasty became weaker, other countries became more and more independent.
The reason why the Eastern Zhou was not overthrown was because it was afraid that other princely states would unite against it. Therefore, the king of Zhou can be said to have maintained peace for a long time. In this case, if the vassal states do not eat the Zhou royal family, they are already burning high incense.
The thought of expansion is ridiculous.
But by the Warring States Period, large-scale annexation wars began, and the Zhou royal family gradually ceased to exist. At that time, the princes were more loyal, and if you were in trouble, they would save your life. At that time, the princes and nobles were very strong.
In order to drive away foreign enemies, King Zhou said:"If you can regain lost territory, it's yours. This will make Qin Guo smile in his dreams.
256 years ago, the Qin Dynasty destroyed the Zhou Dynasty. As the longest dynasty in Chinese history, the Zhou Dynasty was completely wiped out by the tide of history.
-
The main reason is that the national power of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty has gradually declined, and the surrounding vassal states have no longer obeyed his rule. Zhou Tianzi simply did not have the financial and military resources to restore his authority.
-
Since the Western Zhou Dynasty King Youwang "Beacon Fire Opera Princes", especially after King Zhou You was killed by Dog Rong and Shenhou in 771 BC, the status of the Zhou royal family has plummeted. After King Ping of Zhou moved his capital to Luoyi, on the one hand, the Zhou royal family no longer had the authority of the past, on the other hand, it became commonplace to attack among the princes, and the Guanzhong region became the boundary between the dog Rong and the Qin state. After King Zhou Huan, the son of King Ping of Zhou, ascended the throne, due to the suppression of the power of Zheng Zhuanggong, the monarch of Zheng Guo, Zhou and Zheng fought against each other, and finally the two sides fought in Xiangge (now northeast of Changge, Henan), and the general of Zheng Guo Zhu Dan shot King Zhou Huan in the shoulder, and the authority of Zhou Tianzi completely collapsed.
In the future, the Zhou royal family continued to rely on the "support" of the princes and overlords to have a sense of existence, although Zhou Tianzi wanted to restore his authority, but the times were developing, and Zhou Tianzi could not stop the changes of the times, after all, the era of the authority of the Zhou royal family was gone.
-
During the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the authority of Zhou Tianzi was weakened. After King Zhou Ping moved east, he had already lost a lot of land. At that time, there were many vassal states, and the power of the vassal states was increasing, so the place in charge of Zhou Tianzi was relatively small, and the authority would be weaker and weaker.
This is because Zhou Tianzi had a situation of sub-feudal system at that time, and there were many Zhuxun marquis, coupled with frequent wars, so the strength of the rough Changsen has declined, the authority is getting weaker and weaker, and the power has been weakened by Yan Mu.
-
With the strength of the princes and the decline of the Zhou royal family, the prestige of the Zhou emperor also declined, and the fundamental reason for the fall of the Zhou dynasty was that its system could not adapt to the development of society. The authority of the Zhou royal family declined, and most of the princes did not fulfill their obligations to the royal family. The vassal states later became independent small kingdoms.

Mainly because the strength of the princes was too strong and the power of Zhou Tianzi was weakened, of course I thought about it.

The rulers of the Shang Dynasty called themselves "emperors", indicating that they were the unity of gods and kings. After the rebellion of the Zhou Dynasty, he changed this situation and called himself the "Son of Heaven" and managed the country on behalf of the mandate of Heaven. This "Mandate of Heaven" became the dominant cognition in later Chinese dynasties.
It means that everyone is a child of heaven, and the ruler of the Shang Dynasty is not qualified, so the Zhou Dynasty replaced Shang as the administrator of the world.
In order to maintain its own system of kings, the Zhou Dynasty abandoned the sacrificial title of "emperor" of the Shang Dynasty, and has been using the honor system of "duke, marquis, uncle, son, and male" under the "king" to control its entire position in the feudal dynasty.
The difference between an emperor and a king
To a large extent, it is a distinction of rights. In order to increase the dominance of the ruling class, the Shang Dynasty in many cases completed its control over foreign ethnic groups through the "sealing" of itself. And because the Zhou Dynasty had the Zhou rite system, just by using the system, it was possible to complete the straightening out of the relationship between foreign races and their own tribes.
After the Qin Dynasty unified the Six Kingdoms, in order to better manage the various forces, Qin Shi Huang raised his title, improved his own management methods within the system, and made the system of the Qin Dynasty closer to dynastic through the culture of official power. At the same time, there is also an additional management method, that is, to manage the places that cannot be managed by oneself temporarily, that is, to "seal the king". After this, the status of the king was determined under the emperor, and the emperor became the definite title of the lord of the ancient world.
-
In fact, according to Sima Qian's "Historical Records", the monarchs of the Xia Dynasty and the Shang Dynasty were also called "emperors", but the "emperor" at this time did not mean the "emperor" founded by Qin Shi Huang, but referred to the people who were in charge of and controlled the power of tribes and countries in the world. "Emperor" originally referred to the legendary god who created and dominated all things in the universe, and later was used to refer to a person with great moral cultivation and merit.
After Qin Shi Huang established the emperor system, the emperor became the title of the supreme ruler, and it was only then that "emperor" was used as the abbreviation of "emperor".

In the past, the Emperor of Heaven allowed Kong Jia to "ride the dragon" and use the dragon to drive for himself. When he arrived in the Han Dynasty, he could only call himself the "True Dragon Son of Heaven", replacing divinity with the dragon body, and the true dragon became the symbol of the Son of Heaven.
From the human emperor to the true dragon emperor, his identity and status seem to be a big step away. But at the time, it was extremely in line with the social environment. At the end of the dynasty, there were constant wars, and the only guarantee was to promote his orthodox identity.
The legitimacy of his own regime is "the king's father and mother, the son of heaven", he is already a son of heaven, then his words and deeds are the will of heaven, and everything he does is justified.
At the time of the emperor, the division of Kyushu was the ancient Great Kyushu, that is, the world. "Huainanzi Topographical Training" contains "What is Kyushu? The southeast Shenzhou is called agricultural soil, the south of Cizhou is said to be fertile soil, the southwest Rongzhou is said to be Taotu, the west is said to be combined with soil, the middle of Jizhou is said to be the middle soil, the northwest Taizhou is said to be fertile soil, the north of Luzhou is said to be soil, the northeast Bozhou is said to be hidden soil, and the east Yangzhou is said to be Shentu.
With the appearance of the human emperor, the positions of the "three emperors" are all gods with specific personnel. The position of the human emperor is not fixed for one person to sit, that is, the emperors can take turns to sit on it, and in ancient times, the so-called virtuous people lived there. In this way, a new "Three Emperors and Five Emperors" appeared.
It is the catchy "Since Pangu opened the world, the three emperors and five emperors have been recited since childhood".

From the emperor of men to the true son of the dragon, it is in line with the social environment. At the end of the dynasty, there were constant wars, and the only guarantee was to publicize the orthodox identity of the Son of Heaven. The legitimacy of the Son of Heaven's regime is that "the king, the father and the earth, are the sons of heaven", the Son of Heaven is the son of heaven, then his words and deeds are the will of heaven, and everything he does is justified.
A title for the supreme ruler of feudal society. In order to consolidate their position and political power, they claimed that their power was granted by God and that they were adhering to the will of Heaven to govern the world, so they were called the Son of Heaven. They also preach that they were born with many signs, as well as the so-called "son of heaven".
People also compare them to dragons and call them "true dragon sons". The feudal class preached that the Son of Heaven was "ordered by heaven" and was the best person appointed by God to the world, bound by the mandate of heaven.
The Son of Heaven is the Yuan Son of Heaven, Heaven is the personified nature, is considered to be the highest master of the universe, all things in the world are the descendants of Heaven and Earth, Heaven is the Father, so the name is "Huangtian", the earth is the mother, so it is called "Houtu". Therefore, all men are sons of heaven. According to the patriarchal system, only the eldest son has the right to inherit his father's inheritance, so the Son of Heaven is the descendant of Heaven.
"Zhou Yi Dictionaries" said, "Heaven.
1. Land. Second, people three". It can be seen that heaven, earth and man are juxtaposed. Not only that, in the old days, the three emperors and five emperors were called, and the three emperors were called the emperors of heaven, the emperors of the earth, and the emperors of people. During the period of the Three Emperors, it is said that at that time, people and gods lived together, and the five emperors of antiquity were not only the emperors of men, but also the emperors of heaven.
The Records of the First Emperor of the Qin Dynasty also records that "in ancient times, there were emperors, emperors of the earth, and emperors of Thailand, and the emperor of Thailand was the most expensive." "The Emperor of Thailand here is the Emperor of the People. Since then, a "Haotian God" has been added, and the Five Heavenly Emperors are called the Heavenly Emperors, collectively known as the Six Heavenly Emperors.
It can be seen that the identity and status of the human emperor are not inferior to those of the emperor of heaven.
I seem to see that you asked why Dongzhou existed in name only, but that question is closed, so it's okay here. >>>More
Zhou Tianzi likes to take advantage of small advantages, and he also made an international joke for this. For the sake of a small farm, he ended up losing a lot of territory, and he also lost a lot of money, which outweighed the losses, and became an international joke. >>>More
In the end, these two Zhou Tianzi did not keep their country well, and they both perished.
Because Dong Zhuo doesn't have a lot of respect for the Son of Heaven. And his strength is not strong. And Cao Cao was very strategic. So it can be successful.
Because Dong Zhuo was brutal by nature, the government was very chaotic at that time, so no one dared to resist.
