Life of the characters
The period of King Zhou of Shang Dynasty is about 3100 years ago. King Zhou appointed xibochang (that is, Jichang, King Wen of Zhou), Jiuhou and ehou as the three princes. The daughter of the ninth Marquis was brought into the harem by King Zhou. Because he didn't like lewdness, King Zhou killed her and cut the ninth Marquis into meat sauce. After a few words of argument from the Marquis of E, she was also made into dried meat. In order to sue Zhou, Zhou was imprisoned in xiboguli (records of the historian, Yin Benji). The above is derived from historical data, or wrong. In the oracle bone inscriptions unearthed from Yin Ruins, there are more than 30 records about Chonghou tiger (Houhu, Chonghou) in the period of Wuding king of Shang Dynasty, from which we can see the real Chonghou tiger in history. The fiefdom of chonghouhu, located to the west of the capital, was one of the three major generals of Wuding, king of the Shang Dynasty, along with Wangcheng and Jue. He once participated in the expedition of Zhou, Lu, Qiong and other countries. He made great contribution to safeguarding the peace of the border of Shang Dynasty.

Chonghou Hu spoke ill of Xibo to Yin Zhou. He said, "Xibo has accumulated good deeds and virtues, and all the princes will turn to him. It will be bad for you." So Emperor Zhou imprisoned Xibo in yuu. Hong Yao and others were worried about Xibo, so they tried to find beautiful women with Shen family, red mane, white body and golden eyes produced in Lirong area, thirty-six good horses produced in xiongguo, and some other rare treasures, which were presented to King Zhou through Fei Zhong, the favorite Minister of Yin. Seeing this, Zhou was very happy and said, "if you have one of these things, you can release Xibo, not to mention so many." So he pardoned Xibo and gave him bows, arrows, axes and tomahawks, so that he had the right to punish the neighboring princes. Zhou said, "it's the Chonghou tiger who speaks ill of Xibo." After returning to China, Xibo gave up his land to the west of Luoshui and asked Zhou to abolish the criminal law of artillery burning. This kind of punishment is to paint oil on the copper pillar and burn charcoal fire below, so that the punished person can climb the copper pillar and fall into the charcoal fire if he can't climb it. Zhou agreed to Xibo's request.
Xibo did good in secret, and all the princes came to ask him to decide the dispute. At that time, there was a dispute between Yu and Rui, so they came to Zhou together. After entering Zhou Guojing, we found that the farmers all gave way to each other, and people had the habit of giving way to the elders. Before they met Xibo, the people who had quarreled between Yu and Rui felt ashamed. They all said, "what we are fighting about is what the people of Zhou think they are ashamed of. What else do we want to do with Xibo? We will only punish ourselves for shame." So they went back, gave up their fields and left. When the princes heard about it, they all said, "I'm afraid Sibo is the king who bears the mandate of heaven."
The next year, Xibo conquered Canrong. The next year, the expedition will be carried out. Next year, he defeated the state of Qi. When Zuyi of Yin Dynasty heard about it, he was very afraid and reported it to Emperor Zhou. Zhou said, "am I not the one who accepts the destiny of heaven? What can he do? " The next year, Xibo conquered Ying. The next year, the expedition of Chonghou tiger. He built Fengyi and moved the capital from Qixia to Fengyi. The next year, Xibo died, and the prince ascended the throne. This was King Wu of Zhou.
