Huai State annexed Zhou State, Ji Yun died in the battle, and all other Zhou Dynasties fell to the ground and begged to surrender. In the end, the Bangzhou royal family and more than 100,000 people in Luoyi were all moved away by the Huai Kingdom.
Wang Chong ordered that after the people of Luoyi were divided and scattered, they were replenished in various places, and then 100,000 wealthy households and ordinary people were recruited from Huai'an, Kuaiji, Jinling, Chengdu, and Xiangyang to fill Luoyi.
Although Wang Chong did not intend to massacre or anything, these original residents of Luoyi could not stay here. Luoyi, once the most prosperous and largest city in the Xia Dynasty, had become a lot more lonely during this period.
The Zhou royal family has lived here for more than five hundred years, and many common people also have royal ancestry, but they are more remote. After the Huai Kingdom was split up, and a few generations later, these people would be no different from ordinary people.
After replenishing the population, Luoyi regained its prosperity at an astonishing speed and once again became a large city in the Huai Kingdom. The royal children of the Zhou Dynasty were divided by Wang Chong. Except for the direct lineage, which was enfeoffed to the south of Jinling, the others were abolished from the Zhou Dynasty and ordered to change their surnames.
In addition to these, Xu Chao also transported all the wealth accumulated by the Zhou royal family over hundreds of years back to Jinling, Huai State.
The accumulation of the Zhou royal family is still very rich. After all, during the Western Zhou Dynasty, the Zhou royal family was still very majestic, and all the princes in the world needed to pay tribute to it. There were many kinds of bronze ritual vessels and sacrificial vessels.
These bronze ritual vessels and sacrificial vessels can only be used by the royal family, and they cannot be destroyed to cast weapons. They are also a memory of the heyday of the state and Zhou Dynasty, so even in the decline of the state and Zhou Dynasty, these bronze vessels have been completely preserved.
In addition to these bronzes, the Zhou royal family also preserved a large number of books. The collection room of Bangzhou is still very famous. At that time, the Taoist great sage Laozi also served as an official in the collection room. The rich collection of books was second only to the Huai Kingdom. And unlike the collection of books in the Huai Kingdom, the collection room of the Zhou royal family contains many things left by the Yin Shang Dynasty.
Back then, King Wu defeated Shang, and the last Shang king, Emperor Xin, burned himself to death. In Chaoge City, the wealth accumulated by the Yin Shang for hundreds of years was lost to the Zhou royal family. Now these things are back to their original owners.
Wang Chong sent a large number of public servants to sort out these books, bone fragments, bronzes, jewelry and other things and classify them into categories. These things are then restored or copied and kept in the collection room. Some of the unimportant things were reorganized and copied and placed in the Huaiguo Academy, while other important things were placed in the royal collection room.
This is not a simple task. After all, the text has changed over hundreds of years and needs to be compared. Fortunately, Zijue recorded the writings of the Yin and Shang Dynasties for future generations to know.
In the eyes of others, Bang Zhou's collection room is just some books, but in the eyes of Huai State, it is the inheritance of civilization.
In addition to these, there are many historical books in the storage room. As the Emperor of Zhou, the Zhou royal family also has many historical books. In addition to recording the Emperor of Zhou, there are also records of various Xia states. In addition to these, there are many historical books that once existed. The history of the previous vassal states is also recorded. There were even many Taishis who went to the Zhou royal family with their history books because of the destruction of their country and presented them to the Zhou royal family.
It's just that the Zhou Dynasty has been in decline for many years, and the Zhou royal family has no money and food to maintain these historical books. Many historical books have been damaged, or are rotten and mildewed. The Huai State could only re-transcribe, compile and organize these historical books.
In addition to these, the Huai State also compiled the history of the Yin, Shang and Daxia from these books. Although there are still many shortcomings, this is the most complete history book.
The huge compilation project requires a large number of scholars. Fortunately, there are many students in the Huaiguo Academy who can come to help.
After Wang Chong saw so many historical books, he ordered people to sort out these historical books and compile a "Records of States in Zhou Dynasty".
"Chronicles of the States of Bangzhou" will organize and record the history books of various countries since the fall of the Yin and Shang Dynasties and the enfeoffment of the world by Bangzhou, and then add them to it. And this history book will not be changed, but the original history will be preserved and recorded as much as possible.
Since the founding of the country by Zijue, the Huai Kingdom has had a tradition of compiling history. Moreover, Huaiguo also had a high-sounding reason for compiling history books, which was to confirm its orthodox status.
He saw himself as the country that replaced Bangzhou and ended Bangzhou's rule. Compiling the history books of previous dynasties is a matter of course.
"Records of States of the Zhou Dynasty" divides the Zhou Dynasty into three sections, the first section being the Western Zhou Dynasty. This period was the heyday of the Zhou royal family, starting with King Wu's enfeoffment of the world and ending with the destruction of Haojing. The second period was the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, starting with the relocation of King Ping and ending with the division of the Jin Dynasty and the relocation of the capital to the Huai Kingdom. The third period was the struggle among the nations. , starting from the founding of Han, Zhao and Wei, until the fall of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.
The Chronicles of the Zhou Dynasty include hundreds of vassal states. Some of these vassal states only have a few words, while some require lengthy chapters. At the same time, the Spring and Autumn Period of Huai Palace will also run through it. It can be said that the entire book compilation project is not inferior to the compilation of hundreds of schools of thought in the Huai Kingdom. However, this time many history books are just copied and proofread, so the workload is smaller.
Just when the Huai Kingdom conquered Bangzhou Luoyi, in a mysterious space above Bangzhou's ancestral temple, the Zhou family's luck totems, destiny energy, and phoenix bird totems also came to an end.
The phoenix bird representing Bang Zhou's luck dissipated, and the destiny energy in its totem also dissipated. A phoenix cry sounded out, and the heirs of the Zhou royal family seemed to have lost the most important thing in their hearts at this moment.
The purple energy of destiny dissipated, and the luck totem completely dimmed. At the same time, in another cave world, Zijue woke up from his deep sleep. In the void between them, a wisp of destiny purple energy flew from the sky and fell into the cave world.
The destiny purple energy entered the cave world and immediately merged with the destiny purple energy of Huai Kingdom. The black bird totem of Huai Kingdom flapped its wings and flew high, hovering in the air for a while, and then returned to its original form. However, the black clouds that originally covered two-thirds of the luck totem began to slowly dissipate.
With the complete demise of Bang Zhou, his original destiny backlash also began to dissipate, but the luck consumed by the Huaiguo Luck Totem's resistance to the backlash will not be restored.
"Bangzhou is destroyed!" Zijue said slowly.
"Eight hundred years of ruling the world, now more than five hundred years have ended!"
"That's right. The Xia have grown from weak to strong and have opened up such a vast land. It's time to unify."
"It's just that the price of reunification is not something that everyone can bear. We have already reached this point, and more than two hundred years of destiny are enough. At worst, I will personally take action when the time comes!"
[Dear player, your descendants have ended Bang Zhou’s destiny. The old era has ended and a new era is about to begin. You have gained a lot of luck and are settling the props. 】
