Chapter 4 Section 3 The ancestor stopped killing

The Jurchen tribe that Han Pu came to alone was the Wanyan tribe that later ruled the Dajin Dynasty.So what method did Hanpu use to completely solve the vendetta between the Wanyan tribe and other tribes?How did Hanpu, who is a Korean, become the leader of the Wanyan tribe? Hanpu went to the neighboring tribes to mediate. According to historical records, Hanpu told the leaders of the neighboring tribes: "If you kill one person, you will not be able to understand it, and you will suffer more. If you only punish one person who is the leader of the chaos, the Ministry will pay you with things. There can be no fighting and you can make a profit." ("The Chronicle of the First Ancestor of the Golden History") When you kill one person, you fight endlessly with him. It is so boring to fight and kill so many people.How about this, whoever kills you pays for his life, for example, the third son of your tribe was killed by people from their tribe, then you kill the third son and it's over, only the leader of the chaos.Then let the people of their tribe compensate you. Not only will you avoid more deaths, but you can also make a profit. Is it okay to do this?

In fact, the neighboring tribes have already killed them too, it just depends on who speaks out first.Hanpu's tribe made this clear in advance, and the neighboring tribes were happy to go along with it, and they would no longer engage in vendettas, and they could still make profits, so they agreed: No problem, old man, your idea is great, and it will be like this from now on.Whoever kills pays for his life, it has nothing to do with others.The matter was settled, and everyone discussed afterwards: Hanpu's mediation was successful this time, but we can't ask Hanpu to mediate in every tribal fight in the future?The old man is not free either, so what should we do?Han Pu said, let's just make it like this, can we make a rule?In the future, if a member of any tribe is killed by a neighboring tribe, let them pay six taels of gold, ten cows, and twenty horses.Moreover, you killed someone else, and if someone from your family becomes someone's son, it is a hostage.After this rule was established, the Jurchen tribe had the earliest customary law, and since then it has strictly implemented the rules formulated by Han Pu, and has been used in the Jurchen tribe for two hundred years, and there is no more tribal vendetta.What if you kill someone?Pay others six taels of gold, twenty horses, and ten cows, and then one person from your family will be given to others as a son.Don't worry, the person who will be a son will not be in danger, because their family has died, and the most uncomfortable thing is that the strong labor is gone. Now that a strong labor is delivered to the door, they will definitely not kill this strong labor.The rules of Hanpu are certain, and all the tribes are very happy. You can see that the people from Goryeo are not ordinary. What a good idea this is, and there will be no more wars in the future!

The Wanyan Tribe that asked Hanpu to persuade him at the beginning fulfilled his promise and married a 60-year-old virtuous girl to Hanpu, and admitted that Hanpu is a member of his own tribe, not only from our tribe, but also from our tribe boss.Because you are so capable, you have been fighting for this matter since the time of my great-grandfather’s great-grandfather’s great-grandfather, and you don’t have to fight for this matter after a few words here, you are our leader.What is even more surprising is that the old tree blossomed and the withered poplar gave birth to weeds. They gave birth to two sons and a daughter. At the age of 60, they gave birth to two sons and a daughter, which cannot be explained by modern medicine.We can only believe in official history records: "Isn't it God that the first ancestor married a sixty-year-old woman and gave birth to two boys and one girl?" How unreasonable, that's how it's recorded in history books.We understand history through two channels, one is writing, and the other is cultural relics. If you don’t have new and reliable writing and cultural relics, you can deny that the woman the ancestor married was not sixty, but sixteen, then you have to Let's just believe that the sixty-year-old woman gave birth to two sons and a daughter.After Jin was established, the third emperor Jin Xizong pursued Hanpu as the first emperor.
