Why would the "Chinese general" Luan Shu stay out of the matter during the "Killing of The Three Emperors Incident" of Jin Ligong?

We all know that the murder of "Sanhao" is not directly related to the "Chinese general" Luan Shu, but what is puzzling is why Luan Shu stayed out of the "Killing of Sanhao Incident"? This point is worth exploring and studying.

At that time, when Zhao Zhuangji framed and slandered Zhao Tong and Zhao Kuo in front of Jin Jinggong, on the one hand, because Luan Shu and the Hao family joined forces to "commit perjury", on the other hand, because Jin Jinggong was also pregnant with a ghost fetus, the action to get rid of Zhao Tong's brothers was successfully completed. Perhaps because they had a common enemy, the relationship between the Luan family and the Hao family in this period was still good.

By the time of the "Battle of Ma Tunnel" in the Qin and Jin Dynasties, Hao Zhi's younger brother Hao Yi (郤毅) served as Luan Shu's "Imperial Rong", so we can see that at this time, the relationship between hao and Luan became closer. However, by the time of the seventh year of the Jin Dynasty, the friendly relationship between the two families had changed.

"Zuo Chuan" Yun: "Luan Shu complained to the point that he defeated Chu Shiye because he did not obey himself, and wanted to abolish it." ”

During the "Battle of Yanling", in addition to Fan Wenzi being the main faction, Luan Shu and Hao Zhi were both the main faction. However, Luan Shu and Hao Zhi, who were also the main battle, used different tactics: Luan Shu's plan was that the entire army of the Jin state would stick to the camp and launch a surprise attack on the Chu army when it could not attack and retreat for a long time; while Hao Zhi advocated that the Chu army had six weaknesses, and the Jin state must face the battle head-on, which was a good opportunity and could not be missed.

Du Pre believed that it was precisely because Jin Ligong listened to Hao Zhi's words and plans that he finally won the "Battle of Yanling". Luan Shu was jealous of Hao Zhi's merits and wanted to destroy Hao Zhi.

In fact, what Jin Ligong adopted was not The suggestion of Hao Zhi, but the Emperor of Miao.

"Zuo Chuan" Yun: "Emperor Miao Ben said to the Marquis of Jin: Chu Zhiliang, in the middle of the military royal family." Divide the good to strike at its left and right, and the three armies will be defeated by the king's pawn. ”

After Luan Shu and Hao Zhi put forward their own views respectively, Jin Ligong did not immediately make up his mind, but only after consulting Emperor Miao's opinion did he make the decision to fight a direct battle with the Chu army.

However, what was even more surprising was that Emperor Miao, in the later part of the "Battle of Yanling", unexpectedly issued an order to the whole army to prepare for the next day's resumption of the war.

"Zuo Biao" Yun: "Miao Ben Emperor Yu Yue: Search for the Replacement, Ma Li Bing, Xiu Chen Gu Lie, Pray for Food Shen, Tomorrow Resumption!" ”

You know, if someone can give orders to the whole army, then this person must be Luan Shu, the "General of the Chinese Army" of the Jin Dynasty. If not, there were still several generals under Luan Shu who held military power, and it would not be the turn of Emperor Miao Ben to give the order. Since Emperor Miao was able to give orders beyond his authority, it meant that his actions must have been fully authorized, and the authorized person, without thinking, must be Jin Ligong. Judging from the fact that Jin Ligong trusted Emperor Miao ben so much, Emperor Miao Ben was naturally one of Jin Ligong's cronies.

From this point of view, the "Chinese general" Luan Shu originally wanted to unite the forces of the Luan and Hao families to force the Jin Ligong to submit to the strategy of the Chu state, but unexpectedly, at this critical moment, he chose to defect to the camp of the Jin Ligong. Therefore, Luan Shu was caught off guard and had to take the necessary measures to deal with this situation.

Luan Shu did not know that Jin Ligong was trying to eliminate the plans of the Jin dynasty masters, but Jin Ligong was hindered by the luan and Hao families joining forces, so he did not dare to be too public. But after the Defection of the Hao Family, Jin Ligong could act recklessly. Therefore, Emperor Miao's ability to overstep his authority in the "Battle of Yanling" was the result of the acquiescence of the Duke of Jin and the Hao family.

Such a situation not only surprised Luan Shu, but even Fan Wenzi, who had always been cautious, felt that the Jin State was about to face a great power storm. When the "Battle of Yanling" ended, Fan Wenzi actually cursed himself to death!

"Zuo Chuan" Yun: "Jin Fan Wenzi rebelled against Yan Ling, causing him to pray for the death of Emperor Zhuzong, saying: 'The king is arrogant and extravagant and defeats the enemy, which is the benefit of heaven and his disease.' It's hard! Those who love me only wish me, so that I will die quickly, and there is no difficulty, and the blessing of Fan's family is also. 'On the fifth day of June, Shi Xie (Fan Wenzi) died. ”

We all know that Jin Li's righteous and unjust character is by no means formed in a short period of time. However, why did fan wenzi become so frightened after the "Battle of Yanling"? Even curse yourself?

In my opinion, there are two reasons:

On the one hand, during the "Battle of Yanling", the "Incident of Defection to The Jin Dynasty" caused a significant change in the distribution of power within the Jin State. Since the attempt of the Duke of Jin to get rid of the old nobles of the Jin Dynasty was clearly revealed, the nobles had to rely on the Luan and Hao clans to join forces to maintain the status quo. Now that the situation has changed, Fan Wenzi knows that Jin Ligong cannot miss such a good opportunity, and he will definitely attack in the near future.

On the other hand, in order to ensure the sustainable survival of his family, Fan Wenzi could not choose any camp and joined in. However, if you do not participate, I am afraid that it will attract the suspicion of the Jin Ligong and the nobles. Fan Wenzi had to commit suicide in order to express the idea of maintaining neutrality in his heart.

We all know that at this time, the "Chinese army general" Luan Shu already clearly knew about Jin Ligong's attempt to get rid of the doctors, and also knew that even if He went against him, Jin Ligong would still not let go of the Hao family, and would eventually get rid of them.

It is conceivable that the Hao family supports the Jin Ligong, which will eventually form a strong pressure for Luan Shu. Then, when the "Three Hao" was killed, Luan Shu would inevitably choose to stay out of this incident.
