Lao Tzu's surname is Li Minger, and his word is Bo Yang, also known as Lao Dan. He lived in the Spring and Autumn Period of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and served as the director of the National Library of the Zhou Dynasty. His responsibility was to keep and sort out the books, classics and national archives of the Zhou Dynasty. During his tenure, a great event happened in the Zhou Dynasty, which lasted for five years. The whole story goes like this: In 520 BC, King Jing of Zhou died. The prince, the eldest son, should have succeeded to the throne, but the prince died before King Zhou Jing died. So the Zhou royal family had a dispute and civil strife over the inheritance of the son of heaven, and the second son of the prince, the prince's half-brother, Gai, was named Zhou. But as a result, Wang Zichao, the eldest son, the prince's half-brother, was unconvinced. He launched a rebellion, expelled the beggar from the city, and became the "son of heaven". Wang Zichao is a concubine, and now he is in charge of the world. Naturally, it is not regulated, and some people rise up against it. In the autumn and winter of 5 16 BC, the state of Jin sent troops to support the restoration of Zhou Dynasty. After a fierce battle, he couldn't beat the beggar prince, so he rushed to Chu with a large number of Zhou Yujing, which were later recorded in official history such as Zuo Zhuan and Historical Records.

Being able to escape from the royal classics with Zhou shows that the classics were within his sphere of influence during the civil strife. Of course, Lao Zi, who was in charge of books and archives at that time, continued to work under Wang Zichao. After Wang Zichao escaped, he naturally had no choice but to escape with Wang Zichao.

However, when Wang Zichao fled to the State of Chu, it happened that King Chu Ping died, and the State of Chu fell into chaos on the issue of succession to the throne. Therefore, Wang Zichao and his party did not reach the capital of Chu, but stayed in Nanyang in western Hubei, which is today's Nanyang Shiqiao area. In 505 BC, he was assassinated here by an assassin sent by Zhou and buried here by his followers. Huang Lan, an encyclopedia written by Wei Wendi in the Three Kingdoms Period.

Load: "(Wang) is in Hubei County. Today, the Chao family in western Hubei calls itself the son of the dynasty. "That is to say, Wang Zichao's tomb is in today's Wancheng. Chaopi Town, zhenping county, Nanyang City is the settlement of descendants of Wang Zichao.

At the same time, around this time, after many investigations, Laozi finally chose Laojun Cave as a secluded place, where he spent a hundred years in seclusion, health preservation and classics. This is the mystery of Laozi's whereabouts analyzed by many contemporary scholars, and it is also the increasingly unified view of the current academic circles, that is, Laozi's theory of entering Chu.
