Introduction
King Wu granted Wu Geng, the son of King Zhou of Shang Dynasty, the capital of Shang Dynasty, and divided the royal capital of Shang Dynasty into three feudal areas, namely Wei, he and he, which were ruled by his younger brother Guan Shuxian (Dongwei), Cai Shudu (Nanwei) and Huoshu (Beiying), respectively, to monitor Wu Geng, which was called "three supervisors".
The first of the three supervisors: Guan Shu
Guan Shuxian, a Guan Shu, surnamed Ji and named Xian, is the younger brother of King Wu of Zhou Dynasty. After conquering the Shang Dynasty, King Wu granted a part of the capital to Wu Geng, the son of Zhou, and set up "three supervisors" around the capital to monitor. Ji Xian was granted the title of Guan (now Zhengzhou, Henan Province), one of the "three supervisors" and was known as Guan Shuxian in history.
The historical materials about Guan Shu in Yi Zhou Shu Da Kuang Jie and related historical materials show that Guan Shu is a dual status of a crown official and a local vassal. He is ordered by the king of Zhou to control the power of the East, which is equivalent to Fang Bo's important vassal. As the head of "three supervisors", Guan Shu was actually the first important vassal to be granted Fangbo status in the early Zhou Dynasty. After the death of King Wu of Zhou, King Cheng was young and Regent of Zhou. Guan Shuxian and Cai Shudu instigated Wu Geng to unite with Dongyi to launch a rebellion. After Duke Zhou calmed down the rebellion, Guan Shuxian was killed and Guan Guo was abolished.
CAI Shu
CAI Shu: one of the three prisons in the early Zhou Dynasty. His real name is Jidu, known as Cai Shudu in the world. He is the fifth son of King Wen of Zhou and the same mother and brother of King Wu of Zhou.
After King Wu destroyed the Shang Dynasty, he was granted the title of CAI (now Shangcai in Henan Province). When he became king, he and his brother Guan Shu threatened the rebellion of Wu Geng, Prince of Zhou, and was pacified by Zhou GongDan. He was banished. Later, his son Jihu was granted the title of CAI, the ancestor of the state and surname of CAI.
Huo Shu
Huo Shu: surname Ji, first place, a character in the early Western Zhou Dynasty, the first monarch of Huo, and also the ancestor of Huo.
In the 11th century B.C., after King Wu of Zhou attacked Zhou of Shang Dynasty and established the state of Zhou, in order to prevent the rebellion of the old forces of Shang Dynasty, King Wu of Zhou scattered most of the nobles of Shang Dynasty to live in Shanxi area of Shandong Province, and arranged his relatives to be responsible for monitoring. Among them, Shuchu, his brother and the eighth son of King Wen of Zhou, was enfeoffed in Huodi and established Huo state (according to research, Huo state is located in the southwest of Huozhou city in Linfen, Shanxi Province). Therefore, Shu Chu is called Huo Shu and Huo Shu Chu. Huo Shuchu, Guan Shuxian and Cai Shudu were jointly responsible for supervising Wu Geng, the son of King Zhou, who was granted the title of "three supervisors" in the history, and had high power.
However, during the period of King Cheng of Zhou Dynasty, Huo Shuchu was reduced to a common man because of the involvement of Guan Shu and Cai Shu in collusion with Wu Geng, the son of King Zhou. However, Huo kingdom was not destroyed, and Huo Shuchu's son succeeded Huo kingdom.
