The name "China" comes from the abbreviation of "Central Country" of ancient three emperors and five emperors. The word "Zhong" in "China" is not only the core content of China's simple materialism theories such as Taiji and Wuxing, but also the expression in the highest collection of the origin of China culture, and it is also the historical inheritance and recognition of the earliest geographical locations of modern Central Plains and China. The ancestors of China, such as the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, passed the earliest "Huaxia" that lived together to Henan, the Central Plains and Henan. It can be seen that "Central Plains" is the place where the humanistic history of "China" is inherited, and it is the core area and birthplace of the humanistic history of modern China.
Therefore, Henan people can't speak without the word "zhong", and the concept of existence can't bear the word "zhong". They regard "China" as the root of their own nation and culture, and it is the most suitable place to live. The concept of "China" culture also affects the whole Chinese nation. Even Chinese people at home and abroad are struggling to find the root of their own "China" culture, because it is the homeland of their ancestors and the spiritual home to which they have been converted for generations.
However, this "root" was lost from the late Shang Dynasty to the early Zhou Dynasty, so that young people who were pursuing ideals, culture and morality at that time felt very uneasy mentally. Hou Jichang, a Xibo nationality in the late Shang Dynasty, is a typical representative. Ji Chang, later known as West Zhou Wenwang, lived in the "partly cloudy" land in Qishan, Shaanxi Province, but he never forgot the "middle" soil of his ancestors. Before he died, he left his last words to his second son: He must find "Zhong" and return to the "Zhong" land of Hou Ji, the hometown of his ancestors in Xia Dynasty. This last sentence was recently deciphered by Professor Tsinghua University, the leader of the Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties Dating Engineering Expert Group, and the chief scientist Li Xueqin.
China's "Zhong" also refers to the "Central", which is the name of the position in Taiji, Kunlun Mountain and Five Elements, and represents the "Zhong" of "East, West, North and South", the "Ground" of "Jin Mu Fire and Water" and the "Yellow" of "Blue, Red, White, Black and Yellow".
This is also the place where the ancients recorded the four seasons, wind and rain, yin and yang. West Zhou Gongdan recorded in "Da Situ, Zhou Li": "On the earth (also referred to as China), heaven and earth meet, four seasons meet, wind and rain meet, and yin and yang meet. However, everything is safe, this is to build a kingdom. " Among them, the place where "heaven and earth meet" and "yin and yang meet" is the birthplace of "Tai Chi".
The residence of "Zhong" or "Three Emperors and Five Emperors" is the earliest birthplace of China's humanistic history and the location of "centers" such as "Five Elements", "Zhong, Di and Huang". The clan leader who proclaimed himself emperor in the Yellow Sutra of Middle Earth was called "Yellow Emperor"; The turbid water flowing in the middle is called the Yellow River. The words "Yellow Emperor" and "Yellow River" came from this. Kunlun Mountain here is not the highest mountain in the Central Plains, but it is the earliest mountain of human history in China, also known as Fairy Mountain, Ancestor Mountain, Parent Mountain, Heaven and Earth Mountain, Yin and Yang Mountain, etc. It is also the four seas, five mountains, four blasphemies and Kyushu.
"Kunlun Mountain" is located between the east Japanese father's "Kao" place (Lankao Ancient Kao City) and the west mother-in-law's "Wo (Yan)" place (Zhengzhou East Ancient City). Xuanyuanqiu, the birthplace of the Yellow Emperor, is located in the central symmetrical position between xi and Zhanri (Kaifeng Chen Gu, Liu Liu) in the east of Kunlun Mountain and Zhanyue (Zhongmu Wangwei Station) in Changyi in the west. The earliest Taoism in China originated from Baiyun Mountain in the west of lankao county, Cangwu Mountain in the north of Kaifeng County, and the land of Kaifeng girders, with the symbol of Ether. The Book of Changes ancient book "Returning to Tibet" records that "white clouds enter the girder from Cangwu".
"Kunlun Mountain" is also the land of "Huayang Blackwater Only Liangzhou" recorded in Shangshu Gong Yu during the Warring States Period. Among them, "Huayang" is located in Yangshao Cultural Site and the ancient "Huayang Temple" in Wanlong Township, Kaifeng County, and then moved to the ancient city of "Huayang" in the south of Zhengzhou; "Black water" refers to the "black water" flowing through the northern part of Fengqiu Mountain in the northwest of Yuanyang; "Liangzhou" is a "Liangzhou" established by the Eastern Wei Dynasty in Kaifeng County during the Southern and Northern Dynasties, which is located between Huayang and Heishui.
In ancient times, the Xuanyuan family first built five cities here, and selected the city as the imperial city, which was sealed here. Therefore, the place names of Fengqiu (now Xinxiang) and Qicheng (now Yanjin) are still here. Sima Qian of the Han Dynasty said in Historical Records: "The Yellow Emperor is the twelfth floor of five cities." Therefore, the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan Mountain, also known as "Xuanyuan Building" (about 8 kilometers north of Kaifeng today), is one of the "Twelve Buildings in Five Cities" of the Yellow Emperor. After the Yellow Emperor cast a tripod in the "Fengqiu" (also known as Jingshan, Jingshan and Fangshan) in the north of Xuanyuan Building, he was called "Xuanpu Real Person". Xuanpu is regarded as a Taoist fairy land by Taoism. It is located on the Kunlun Mountain in Kaifeng, Zhongmou and Fengqiu, also known as the Garden in the Garden, the Original Garden, the County Garden, Putian and the Hanging Garden.
The appearance of Taiji, Kunlun Mountain and Five Elements is closely related to the origins of Three Emperors and Five Emperors, Emperor I, Central China, Middle Earth, Yellow Emperor and Heaven and Earth. "Being in heaven and earth", that is, "being in the world", is the earliest birthplace of Taiji and Chinese ancestors. The ancient people in China inherited the geographical position of "in the world" by measuring scenery with standard tables, and modern people can completely imitate ancient instruments and methods to measure and identify.
The reason why we don't agree with the "central country" is that "the world" is in Luoyang and Dengfeng;
First, it is difficult for some people to quote historical materials that record "being in the world". According to the book "Warring States Policy Volume 5 Qin San" compiled by Liu Xiang in the Western Han Dynasty, in 27 1 year BC (thirty-six years of Qin), wei ren defected to the State of Qin, put forward the strategy of making friends with the king of Qin, dominated "China" and advocated taking the capital of Wei as the main goal of the merger of Qin, because "now South Korea and China of Wei are located", if the king wants to dominate, he must. ".
It can be seen that "Chu Zhao" is not the hub of China. In the Warring States policy, Kaifeng and Zhongmou, the border between Korea and Wei, were regarded as "China", and Kaifeng, the capital of Wei, was regarded as the heart of "China", which was at the center of the world, while Luoyang in the Zhou Dynasty did not mention "China" or "the hub of the world".
At present, it is found that some people regard Luoyang as the "central country", that is, the historical materials "Yu Shi" only come from after the Han Dynasty. According to Sima Qian's Historical Records of Liu Jingchuan in the Han Dynasty, "Being a king belongs to Fu, and being a Zhou Luo Yi is also in the world. The princes pay tribute to all directions, all in the Tao. " Li, a writer at the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, said: "Luo Yang is the throat and collection of the world."
These records have a causal relationship with the "central country" after Zhou Bugong, that is, "Yu Shi", but they actually originated from the Western Zhou Dynasty. It's just that it's clear that Luoyang is the land of Dengfeng, and the "world" of Buluogong in the Zhou Dynasty has been announced to the world, and the east is also known to the world in the Zhou Dynasty. But why did Fan Sui in the Warring States turn a blind eye to Luoyang in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and call Kaifeng and Zhongmou, which are located at the turn of Korea and Wei, "the land of China" and "the pivot of the world"? This at least shows that China, the fulcrum of the world, and the center of the world coexist in Luoyang and Dengfeng's Chengzhou, Kaifeng and Zhongmou, as well as Shaanxi Huangdi Mausoleum, Henan Lingbao's place where the Yellow Emperor was cast, and Xinzheng Xuanyuan's hometown. I don't know which of the three emperors and five emperors is the real center. Therefore, there are many different opinions that cannot be justified.
Second, the definition of "heaven and earth" by Duke Zhou Buliu has been denied by the Tang Dynasty. According to the warring States period's "Poetry, Elegance and People's Labor", it is recorded that "it is beneficial to China and the four sides." The preface to "Xiaoya June" also records: "Xiaoya was abolished, four foreigners invaded, and China was weak." It doesn't say where "China" is, but according to the records of "the land invaded by four foreigners", Kaifeng conforms to the characteristics of "the land invaded by four foreigners", "all around", "four wars" and "winning in the middle". According to Chen Shou's Biography of the Three Kingdoms and Gao Rou in the Western Jin Dynasty, "(Gao Rou) refers to the words in the city:' Today, heroes rise, and Chen leaves a place for four wars. "Among them, Liu Chen, that is, Kaifengfu, has always been regarded as the middle rope where two ropes (lines) of Meridian and You Mao meet in the middle, that is, the place where the four seasons meet.
During the Western Zhou Dynasty, Luoyang and Dengfeng were "the world". According to textual research, the word "China" first appeared in 1963 bronze inscription "He Zun" unearthed in Jia Cun Town, chencang district, Baoji County, Shaanxi Province: "Only the ruler of Dayi, Wu Wang, told Heaven that Yu Qi lived in China and he was a disgrace to the people." The general idea is that after the king of Wu destroyed the business, he appealed to heaven, taking this place as the center of the world and ruling the people. It is generally believed that the inscription "China" refers to the "heaven and earth" defined by Zhou Gongdan Buluo, that is, the Zhou Dynasty, that is, today's Luoyang area.
It is also a fact that the Duke of Zhou did not decide that "heaven and earth" was in Luoyang and Dengfeng. The method and basis of Zhou Gongdan's determination of "in heaven and earth" is recorded in "Da Situ, Zhou Li": "The shadow of the sun to the sun is five inches long, which is called in the ground". According to our analysis, the method and standard of Zhou Gongdan's records should be a summary of experience inherited from China's ancestors. The migration of the Western Zhou Dynasty to Luoyang and Dengfeng is a concrete action to realize Zhou Wenwang's request for Zhou Wuwang's "seeking for China" and "returning to China" in the last wish of Baoqing bamboo slips, that is, returning to the ancestral home of "Three Emperors and Five Emperors" and "the country of the central government".
However, Zhou Gongdan's correct method and choice of measuring the "Three Emperors and Five Emperors" and the "State of the Central Committee", that is, the "State of the World", has met with serious consequences caused by excessive technical errors, resulting in a difference of about 260 miles between the "State of the World" selected in Luoyang and Dengfeng areas and the actual "State of the World" in China's cultural history. Although this mistake was easily understood and tolerated by later generations when the level of science and technology was relatively backward at that time, it is a pity that this major historical and cultural inheritance mistake was not discovered until the Tang Dynasty about 1700 years later.
In 724 AD, on April 23rd, 12th year of Kaiyuan in Tang Dynasty, Tai Shi Jian Nan Gong said that the shadow length of Yangcheng in Dengfeng was 1.48 feet, and the night view of the North Pole was 34.4 degrees high. The coffin length measured at Junyi Yuetai in Kaifeng is 1.5 feet, which is slightly stronger, reaching 34.8 degrees. From then on, it was only in the Tang Dynasty that this important historical and cultural heritage error was brought out of order. Zhou Gongdan Buluo mistakenly designated Dengfeng as "the land of Zhou" and changed Kaifeng to "the land of Tang".
Although "on earth" has been corrected, the Chinese cultural and historical connotations such as "Three Emperors and Five Emperors", "First Emperor", "Kunlun Mountain", "Central China", "Middle Earth", "Yellow Emperor" and "Xuanyuanqiu" in the same place have not fundamentally returned to the Kunlun Mountain area in Kaifeng. This is also the historical reason why Luoyang, Dengfeng, Runan and other places have been called "the best in the world" since the Western Zhou Dynasty, and it is also the inevitable result that the imperial capitals and tombs of the three emperors and five emperors are scattered all over the country beyond recognition.
This inertia of historical misjudgment has lasted for more than 3,000 years, which has brought far-reaching and even subversive influence to the study of human history in China. It made China people form one or more centers of origin of humanity, such as "Three Emperors and Five Emperors", "Emperor I", "Kunlun Mountain", "Central China", "Middle China", "Yellow Emperor" and "in the middle of heaven and earth", which misled the dating project of Xia, Shang and Zhou into a chaotic state of "continuous cutting and chaos" and failed to make a breakthrough.
At present, Henan's efforts to build a "heritage area of Chinese historical civilization" obviously lack systematic theoretical guidance on the historical origin of China, and it is difficult to locate the birthplace of human history in China geographically. In this case, even if it is turned into a so-called "heritage area of Chinese history and civilization", it is difficult to convince China people all over the world.
In this regard, Kaifeng historians have made an in-depth excavation based on the historical data of China in Kaifeng. Zhengzhou University Press published a book "Kaifengfu in the Wild", with the new interpretation of the original Mu Zhuan unearthed from the tomb of the Warring States period as circumstantial evidence, which systematically solved the problems of Taiji, three emperors and five emperors, the first emperor, the country of the central government, middle-earth and middle-earth. Finally, as the birthplace of China's human history, Henan has a systematic theoretical basis, which also provides geographical coordinates for Henan to build the core area of "China Historical Civilization Heritage Area".
In a word, Henan people say "Zhong", which conveys the long and profound historical and cultural information of Chinese ancestors, carries forward the simple materialistic epistemology of ancient Taiji, Five Elements, Zhong, Tu and Huang, and confirms the important history that the "Central Country" of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors originated in Kunlun Mountain, namely Kaifeng, Zhongmou and Fengqiu.
The "China" culture of "China" is being popularized in Kaifeng, Central Plains and China, which will not only be told by the people of Henan and Chinese people, but also be remembered in their hearts forever.
