With the popularity of the "Great Qin Empire" series, people are also more interested in the history of the pre-Qin, and now the last sentence to listen to is that the monarch of the Qin state did not have the emperor, in fact, it is not that they did not have the emperor, but they did not have the qualifications to be the emperor, the origin of the qin state is Qin Feizi for the Zhou kingdom to raise horses, was sealed by the Zhou as a vassal, their starting point is very low, and later Qin Xianggong helped the king of Zhou Ping to be crowned as a prince, although they became a princely state, but they have always been looked down upon by those princely states of noble origin. It was not until Qin Xiaogong used the Shang martingale transformation method that the princes began to attach importance to the State of Qin, and when Qin Xiaogong succeeded to the throne, he was eager not to be strong in the face of the national enemy, the so-called national vendetta, was that the Qin State bent down and bent his knees to cede the land of Hexi to the State of Wei in order to seek peace talks, and the family hatred was that his father died, died in the second year of the Battle of Shaoliang, his father was Qin Xiangong, who was injured in the Battle of Shaoliang, and died the next year, and his death also gave a great shock to the successor Qin Xiaogong, but his father's fate was really bumpy, and he almost did not become the monarch of the Qin State.
Qin Xian gong fei shi yi was also recorded as gongzi lian was the son of Qin Linggong. Thirteen years after the Duke of Qin Linggong, Qin Linggong died, according to the system, the old father died, and his son Yin succeeded to the throne, but Yin Shiyi was not able to inherit his father's position, because Qin Linggong's uncle, Yin Shi Yi Gongzi Lian's uncle Mourning Son, seized the throne for the Duke of Qin Jian. This one? The ten-year-old Yin Shiyi was also quite misnamed, afraid that his uncle would have to clean up after himself, and in case of an accident, he fled to the neighboring state of Wei in the east and began a twenty-nine-year exile. Why is the State of Wei This is very easy to understand, at this time the State of Wei is the first power of the Warring States, and the State of Qin is a third-rate state that completely seized the land of Hexi occupied by the State of Qin as early as the Time of The Duke of Qin, and the plight of the State of Qin is in stark contrast to the vigorous development of the State of Wei, which greatly stimulates the Exiled Gongzi Lian in the State of Wei. Thinking of the decline of the Qin state and his own suffering, he decided that he must do something.
In fact, this kind of exiled prince, all countries treat each other with courtesy, just like when the Duke of Qi Huan was outside, in case such a prince became the monarch later, it was also a human feeling, such as Yin ShiYi, etc., the opportunity finally came to the sixteenth year of the Duke of Qin Jian (400 BC), the Duke of Qin Jian died, and his son Qin Huigong took the throne. In the thirteenth year of The Duke Hui of Qin (387 BC), Duke Hui of Qin died, and his son Qin took the throne. Qin was only two years old when he ascended the throne, so his mother presided over the imperial government. Qin's mother appointed foreign relatives and eunuchs, which had conflicts with the members of the qin state's office, and the internal affairs of the qin state were very tense. In order to win the hearts and minds of the people, qin's mother gave too many rewards, leaving the treasury of the Qin state empty, and had to increase the tax rate to increase the revenue of the national treasury, which caused strong dissatisfaction among the landlords and self-cultivating farmers. What to do if you are dissatisfied, it is to change the boss, perhaps at this time everyone remembers that there is another gongzi lian, that is, Yin Shiyi, who is still fleeing in the Wei kingdom.
In the year of Qin's birth, Wei Wuhou decided to help Yin Shiyi seize power and establish a pro-Wei government, which was based on the interests of his family, but when Wei Wuhou sent someone to tell Yin Shiyi about this, it was reasonable to say that when he heard the news, He was happy, but Wei Shiyu was not at all happy, and even if there was, it was hidden in his heart, he knew that Wei Wuhou supported his intention to return to the country, such as with the help of Wei Guo, the possibility of returning to the country to succeed to the throne, but it should be taken into account that Qin and Wei were feuding. This Wei country helped himself to return to China, and the people of that country would not support him. However, if he rejected Wei Wuhou, he would become a person who had no value to Wei Guo, and he would probably be killed because of this. After thinking about it for a while, Gongzi Lian told the emissaries of Wei Wuhou that he was very grateful to Wei Wenhou and Wei Wuhou for taking care of him over the years, and he did not want Wei Wuhou to disperse his forces for him. Gongzi Lian planned to return to the country alone, refusing to be escorted by the State of Wei. When Marquis Wu of Wei saw that Gongzilian had promised to return to China, and that his purpose had been achieved, he gave Gongzi Lian carriages and horses and a large amount of gold and silver jewelry, and asked Gongzi Lian when he would leave for him. Gongzi Lian said that it would take at least a year, and then he bid farewell to Marquis Wu of Wei. Although Wei Wuhou was not very happy, he still politely said goodbye to Gongzi Lian. Previously, Gongzi Lian was also trying to take advantage of the internal instability of the Qin state to regain the throne, but he was unwilling to accept the help of the State of Wei and was at the mercy of the Marquis of Wei. Marquis Wuhou of Wei's proposal made Gongzi neither acceptable nor rejected, but forced him to immediately begin preparations for the seizure of power.
Gongzi Lian let the witty and eloquent people around him enter the Qin state, contacted the ministers who were at odds with Qin's mother, spread the news that Gongzi Lian wanted to return to China to implement the new policy, handed over gold and silver jewelry to Haojie Yishi, and secretly won over the generals of the Qin army. The people of the Qin state were very sympathetic to the fact that Gongzi Lian had been taken away by his uncle Duke Jian of Qin. During the reign of Duke Jian of Qin, the government of the State of Qin was corrupt, the national strength was weak, and the Land of Hexi was lost, and the Qin people complained about Duke Jian of Qin. During the reign of Duke Hui of Qin, the son of Duke Jian of Qin, the State of Qin did nothing but protect itself. After the death of Duke Hui of Qin, his two-year-old son Qin Chuzi took the throne, and the State of Qin entered the chaotic situation of Qin Chuzi's mother ruling. The Qin people were very worried about this dangerous situation in the Qin state, and hoped that a promising monarch could emerge from the Qin state, lead everyone out of the predicament, and restore the strength and prosperity of the Qin Mugong. Many ministers of the State of Qin were dissatisfied with Qin's mother's practice of reusing her own relatives, and were willing to cooperate with Gongzi Lian to overthrow the rule of Qin's mother. After hearing that Gongzilian was going to return to China to implement the New Deal, the self-cultivators and landlords of the Qin State all looked forward to the early return of Gongzilian. After a year of planning, Gongzi lian felt that the time was ripe and prepared to leave. At the time of farewell to Marquis Wu of Wei, Gongzi Lian swore an alliance with Marquis Wu of Wei, and Gongzi Lian thanked the State of Wei for his hospitality over the past thirty years, and if Gongzi Lian succeeded in regaining the throne, the State of Qin promised not to be an enemy of the State of Wei during the lifetime of Marquis Wei Wu. This oath made Wei Wuhou very uncomfortable.
In the second year of Qin's reign (385 BC), the governor of the State of Qin changed his name to Prince Lian of Hexi to serve as a duke of Qin. When Qin's mother learned of this, she ordered the army to go forward and eliminate Qin Xiangong and his gang. The generals of this army had already been bribed by Qin Xiangong, and on the way, they persuaded their men to go and greet Qin Xiangong. Surrounded by these people, Qin Xiangong entered the capital of the Qin State (present-day Baoji City, Shaanxi Province), killed Qin Chuzi and his mother, regained the throne, and finally returned to his country after several decades, becoming the new Duke of Qin, and after returning to the throne, he carried out reforms in the Qin State, including abolishing human martyrdom, moving the capital, expanding commercial activities, compiling household registration and promoting the county system, and launching several wars to recover the lost land in Hexi. Although the reform of the Qin Xiangong period was not complete, it laid the foundation for the Shang Martingale Transformation Method during the Qin Xiaogong period. In 362 BC, after returning to the throne, he carried out reforms in the Qin state, including abolishing human martyrdom, moving the capital, expanding commercial activities, compiling household registration and promoting the county system, and launching several wars to recover lost land in Hexi (the area west of the yellow river between present-day Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces). Although the reform of the Qin Xiangong period was not complete, it laid the foundation for the Shang Martingale Transformation Method during the Qin Xiaogong period. After his death, he was succeeded by his son Yingqu Liang as Duke Xiao of Qin.
