Meanings and usage

verb: to advance, to promote
晉

Character is highly polysemous (verb 'advance/promote', State of Jin, Jin Dynasty, Shanxi abbreviation, I Ching hexagram, surname) all sharing this single reading; the verb sense was chosen as the primary dictionary meaning but the character is at least as commonly encountered in proper-noun compounds.
