Just to compliment a smile, Zhou Youwang lit the beacon and made fun of the governor. Zhou Xuanwang died in 78 BC1year, and his son acceded to the throne, namely Zhou Youwang. Zhou Youwang is fatuous, looking for beautiful women everywhere. The doctor advised him to pay more attention to national affairs. Angry, he changed his position to Dai and kicked him out. This caused the minister's praise and dissatisfaction. Praise and warning persuaded Zhou Youwang, but Zhou Youwang was put in prison in a rage. Baoxiang was kept in prison for three years. His son dedicated this hymn to Zhou Youwang, and Zhou Youwang published it. Zhou Youwang was overjoyed at this compliment. Praise is always frowning, Lian Xiao didn't smile once. Zhou Youwang tried to make her laugh, but she couldn't. Guo Shifu said to Zhou Youwang, "In the past, in order to prevent Xirong from invading our capital, more than 20 beacon towers were built in Fanshan area. In case the enemy comes, a series of bonfires will be lit for the neighboring governors to see, so that they can send troops to rescue. At this time, the world is at peace, and the beacon tower has long been useless. It is better to light a bonfire and tell the princes that they have been cheated. The queen will laugh when she sees these horses coming. Do you think my method is good? "
Zhou Youwang narrowed his eyes and clapped his hands. The bonfire started at one o'clock, and the sky was full of flames at midnight. When the surrounding governors saw the bonfire, they quickly ran to Beijing with their military forces. I heard that the king was in Xishan and hurried to Xishan. To my surprise, I didn't see any enemies, and it didn't look like a war. I only hear music and singing. Everybody, look at me. I look at you. I don't know what's going on. Zhou Youwang sent someone to say to them, "Thank you, ladies and gentlemen, there are no enemies. Go back! " The princes realized that they had been taken in by the king and were very angry, so they went out with their own troops. Seeing so many soldiers and horses busy, Zance smiled. Zhou Youwang was very happy and gave him a present. Before long, Xirong really came to Beijing. Zhou Youwang hurriedly lit a bonfire. Last time these governors were fooled, this time they were joking and ignored him. The bonfire was lit, but no reinforcements came. There are not many military forces in Beijing, only one Zheng Boyou went out to resist for a while. However, his troops were too few, and he was finally surrounded by the enemy and killed by random arrows. Zhou Youwang and Guo Shifu were both killed by Xirong, and their honor was deprived.
The princes jointly established the abandoned Prince Zhi mortar as the son of heaven, namely. Ping Wang moved the capital to Luoyang. Historically, before moving the capital, it was called "Western Zhou" and later "Eastern Zhou". The Eastern Zhou Dynasty began in 770 BC. The Eastern Zhou Dynasty existed in name only, and the vassal regime was divided into two stages: the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
Zhou existed for 800 years and was later destroyed by the state of Qin.
