About Shang Zhouwang;

"Zhou Wang distinguishes diseases quickly and has a keen sense of smell; Material power is extraordinary, and hands are beasts. Content is enough to remonstrate, and words are enough to make mistakes. I am proud of the ability of people and ministers, and the world is high, thinking that everything is under myself. "

This is the evaluation of Shang Zhouwang in Historical Records. It can be seen that Shang Zhouwang is well-informed, knowledgeable, quick-thinking, tall and fierce, and can fight wild animals with his bare hands. He is also a man with both civil and military skills. His wisdom is enough to refuse to refuse suggestions, and his words are enough to cover up his mistakes. He is eloquent. When he said the wrong thing, it seemed that he had made achievements. His ability is enough to brag to his men and his reputation is enough to despise the world.

Shang Zhouwang, the last monarch of Shang Dynasty, has always been regarded as a worthless tyrant.

In the history of Shang Zhouwang, he attached great importance to da ji. For example, the history book says, "Love da ji, and da ji follows his words." .

Moreover, "wine is a pool, hanging meat is a forest", arrogant and extravagant, treating people in the world like dirt and taking the world as their own desire.

Blocked the mouth of the officials with the cannon brand, blocked the way of remonstrance, and the officials dared not speak. A loyal minister in the past? Seeing that Shang Zhouwang was tyrannical and dissolute, Bigan went to the Star Tower to remonstrate for three days. Shang Zhouwang asked him why he was self-sufficient. Bigan said, "I am self-sustaining because of benevolence and righteousness." He said angrily, "I heard that saints have seven minds and various beliefs." Then kill gambi, depending on his heart. Zhou Wang's tyranny is obvious.

Zhou Wang's behavior naturally led the minister to leave Germany. Like the famous Kiko, he fled to the Korean peninsula. There has always been a legend that there is a branch on the Korean peninsula that is his descendant. Another example is Tai Shigong, an important figure in the Tang Dynasty, who defected to Zhou with sacrificial vessels and musical instruments. He took away the musical instruments and ritual vessels offering sacrifices to ghosts and gods and swept them away. In our opinion, this is just the loss of some ritual vessels, but the ancients didn't think so. Sacrificial ritual vessels are sacred. If we lose our strength, this country will almost be finished.

Of course, objectively speaking, there are also many people who think that he is not necessarily so bad. Of course, the emperor was dissolute, tyrannical and cruel, but he did something beneficial from a long historical stage.

For example, first, he opened up Shandong, the lower reaches of Huaihe River and the Yangtze River basin. Shang Zhouwang sent troops to fight. This man is powerful and has many ideas, so he developed the undeveloped Shandong and Yangtze River basins at that time. The expansion of the territory of Shang Dynasty promoted the spread of Chinese civilization and contributed to the emergence and development of China.

Second, Shang Zhouwang has implemented a series of revolutionary measures to oppose theocracy and reform old customs. In Shang dynasty, this was terrible. Ghosts and gods were very important at that time. If an emperor doesn't even worship ghosts and gods, people will think that you are illegal and people will think that you have gone too far. Moreover, he did not sacrifice, so naturally people were unstable and the political situation was turbulent.

Third, it broke the hereditary system of slave owners and secular nobles and promoted a large number of new people. This was not simple at that time, not only to get rid of a feudal ethical code, but also to balance the interests of a large family and find a breakthrough.

Fourthly, some people think that Shang Zhouwang provided the ideological and material basis for the final reunification of ancient China, and was a pioneer in the reunification of China. Of course, this last comment has not been recognized by everyone, but there are indeed many people who are making this point. This also shows that any wicked person in history should be analyzed in detail.

These things, which now seem to have played a positive role in later history, led to the demise of the Shang Dynasty. Therefore, history has two sides, and a seemingly inappropriate thing may have an incredible and wonderful impact on future generations.

Generally speaking, Shang Zhouwang was a tyrant in the history of Shang Dynasty. He destroyed the 500-year rule of Shang Dynasty, but at the same time he promoted the development of history and was a pioneer of the times.
