People firmly believe that historical records are actually flawed. Sometimes what is recorded in history is not always credible, because many things have changed in the process of historical changes. For Sanxiang's statement, many people are convinced of Sanxiang's historical records. It is agreed that Sanxiang refers to this place. Why else would people record it like this thousands of years ago and hundreds of years ago? But in fact, from reality, we will find that even if there are records about Sanxiang in historical documents, the records of Sanxiang are not comprehensive and objective.
According to Zhu's records of Sanxiang, it is believed that Sanxiang refers to, Xiaoxiang and Steamed Hunan respectively, but this statement has obvious defects, because, let alone not being in Hunan, this statement is flawed, because everyone knows that Sanxiang refers to the whole Hunan region, but in Zhu.
Xiaoxiang, Xiangzi and Yuanxiang were upgraded to the new version. In the new edition, Xiaoxiang, Xiangzi and Yuanxiang are the most authentic Sanxiang quotations. In this new statement, Li Xiang and Zheng Xiang are excluded from the field of Sanxiang. Because of the new viewpoint, Li Xiang and Zhengxiang are not qualified to be one of Sanxiang. First of all, from Li Xiang's point of view, the river basin that started from Hunan eventually merged into the Xiangxiang River system, but not into the Xiangjiang River system as a whole, and there is not much circulation in Hunan Province. Moreover, this view of Steamed Hunan is that Steamed Hunan is not enough to represent Hunan Province, because from the point of view of the water quantity of rivers, Steamed Hunan is not ranked at all compared with other water flows in Hunan Province, so it is not qualified to run for one of the three provinces in Hunan.
From this point of view, compared with Zhu's records, the credibility of this statement is indeed higher. Although the theory of Sanxiang only lists Xiaoxiang, Xiangzi and Yuanxiang, judging from its content, it certainly contains more than these three. They include four regions: Hunan, Zi, Yuan and Li. Under this division, compared with historical records, this division more fully includes the vast majority of areas in Hunan Province.
Of course, no matter what kind of statement, it is actually people's own ideological division. On the whole, Sanxiang refers to Hunan Province. For us, there is no need to be too entangled in which Sanxiang actually refers to. We just need to understand that it refers to Hunan province, and it is also a nickname for Hunan people and Hunan people.
