Shuyu of Jin (courtesy name Zigan, son of King Wu and younger brother of King Cheng. King Cheng was playing with Shuyu, carving a paulownia leaf into a jade tally and giving it to Yu, saying, "With this I enfieff you." Scribe Yi thereupon requested that an auspicious day be chosen to install Shuyu. The king said, "I was merely joking with him." Yi said, "The Son of Heaven does not speak in jest." Thereupon he was enfieffed at Tang, modern Pishi in Hedong. Shuyu's son Xie was the Marquis of Jin. By Duke Xian's destruction of Guo, it first established its capital; later Duke Wen, Chong'er, first attained hegemony.
