The term 'Wusun Xiadu' refers to today's Karajun grassland.
Around the end of the 3rd century BC to the beginning of the Western Han Dynasty, the Wusun people established the famous Wusun Kingdom in the Ili River basin. Every year, the Wusun king and his people traveled back and forth between the winter and summer capitals, "living by the water and grass". The Book of Han records that the Wusun people lived on the southern edge of the Ili River, and the Tekes River is the largest river on the southern edge of the Ili River, where the water and grass are most abundant. For a long time, the Kazakh people have had a traditional culture passed down orally. There are more than 200 Kazakh folk narrative poems that have been passed down to this day, including the oral tradition of "Khan Jie Liao, Ha Yi Bei Li De Karajun", which means "Where the king's grassland is, it is in Karajun".
The Wusun people are the main ethnic group of the Kazakh people today, and "Wusun" means "unity and solidarity" in Kazakh language. The clan blood organizations of the Wusun Kingdom are usually mixed with their military and administrative organizations. According to the "Biography of the Western Regions" in the Book of Han, "In the Wusun Kingdom, Da Kunmi governed Chigu City and went to Chang'an for 8900 miles. He had two Grand Generals, two Left and Right Generals, three Marquis Generals, each Grand General and Captain, two Grand Supervisors, one Grand Official, two Grand Officials, and two Cavalry Generals." Kunmo (Kunmi) was the highest ruler of the Wusun Kingdom, with the Prime Minister and Grand Official below him, and later established various official positions such as Grand General, Marquis, and Cavalry Lord. They were mostly descendants of the royal family or relatives. The founding monarch, Liejiaomi, was named Kunmo, and his eldest son was named Taizi. The second son is known as' Dalu '.
During the Han Dynasty, two princesses, Xijun and Jieyou, successively married into the Wusun Kingdom, making it the place in ancient China with the highest number of recorded concubines.
Princess Xijun "was the daughter of Prince Liu Jian of the Western Han River. She was the first recorded princess in Chinese history to successfully marry. Around 110 BC, the Wusun sent envoys to request marriage with the Han Dynasty. Emperor Wu of Han sent Princess Xijun, the daughter of Prince Liu Jian of Jiangdu, to marry Kunmo Liejiaomi. Liejiaomi appointed Princess Xijun as the Right Lady. At that time, the Wusun Prince Kunmo Liejiaomi was already old, and Princess Xijun and his grandson were of similar age. The two spoke different languages and had different customs, and the couple only met once or twice a year, without any warmth. Princess Xijun lived in a different land, although she lived in a felt hut and ate beef and mutton. Drinking milk and yogurt, but she still felt uncomfortable with life, coupled with language barriers, and was very sad. She wanted to go back to her hometown and wrote a song called" Yellow Song " The song goes, "My family married me to the side of Xitian, and entrusted me to the foreign land of Wusun Wang. The dome shaped house is the wall of Xixi, and meat is the food of Xixi and cheese is the milk. I have been longing for the earth and my heart is wounded. I wish to return to my hometown for Huangxi. Five years later, Princess Xijun passed away with melancholy.
Princess Jieyou "(120-49 BC) was born into the imperial family, and her grandfather Liu Wu was once the dominant King of Chu. In the spring of the third year of Emperor Jing's reign, Liu Wu participated in the "Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms" led by kings of the same surname, and was defeated and killed. Since then, "Princess Jieyou" and her family have long been suspected and excluded by the Han Dynasty, falling into irreversible suffering. In the fourth year of the Taichu era (101 BC), after the death of Princess Xijun, who was sent as an envoy to Wusun and her relatives, in order to maintain a good relationship between the Han Dynasty and the Wusun Kingdom, "Princess Jieyou" was ordered to marry the Wusun Kingdom. She was full of legendary colors and experienced the reigns of Emperor Wu, Emperor Zhao, and Emperor Xuan of Han. She married three Wusun Kings one after another. "Princess Jieyou" lived in the western region for more than half a century and has been active ever since. On the political stage of the Western Regions, he made great contributions to the stability of the Han Dynasty's borders and the friendly diplomatic relations between the Wusun Kingdom and the Han Dynasty. When Princess Jieyou was over seventy years old, she wrote a letter to the Emperor of the Han Dynasty to express her homesickness and requested to bury her remains in her homeland. In the third year of Ganlu, Princess Jieyou returned to the Han Dynasty, and the Emperor sympathized with her situation and personally went out of the city to welcome her return. Every time she went to court, Princess Jieyou's etiquette and treatment were the same as that of a royal princess.
