Regarding the exclusive power of the six secretaries of the Jin Dynasty, we must start from the three armies and six secretaries system established by the Duke wen of Jin, and the six secretaries at that time already had a prototype! After his death, the powerful minister Zhao Dun organized the alliances of various countries, opening up the situation in the history of the Spring and Autumn Period in which the Qing Dafu organized the alliances, so for a long time, the Zhao family was the most prominent of the six Qings! Later, because the Zhao family was too prominent, it was suspected by the monarch, and finally there was the famous "Orphan of Zhao", which rose again in the late Spring and Autumn Period, and was one of the six secretaries of Han, Zhao, Wei, Zhi, Fan, and The Bank of China!
In the end, only the three families of Han Zhao and Wei remained because they began to merge with each other at the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, just like a country within a country, with staggered land. At that time, the most powerful of the Six Qings was the Zhi family of Zhi Bo, who had successively annexed the Fan clan and the Zhongxing clan, and the three families of Han Zhao and Wei dared to be angry! Even Zhi Bo was not satisfied, probably thinking that like the Tian clan of the State of Qi, a family would replace the old princely state of the Jin State!
But unfortunately, Zhibo failed. What happened was that after he attacked the Fan and Zhonghang clans, because of the excuse that the Zhao family was unsuccessful, thinking that he was sleepy and encountering a pillow, he decided to join forces with Han Wei to attack the Zhao clan, and at first it was also a pleasant cooperation, flooding Jinyang.
The houses in Jinyang City were flooded, the people had to run to the roof to take refuge, the stoves were also submerged in the water, and people had to hang up the pots to cook. However, the people of Jinyang City hated Zhi Boyao so much that they preferred to drown rather than surrender.
Zhi Boyao asked Han Kangzi and Wei Huanzi to check the water potential together. He pointed to Jinyang City and said triumphantly to the two of them, "You see, isn't Jinyang almost finished?" Earlier, I thought that Jinshui could stop the enemy like a city wall, but now I know that the big water can also destroy a country. ”
Han Kangzi and Wei Huanzi superficially obediently agreed, but they were secretly surprised in their hearts. Originally, there was a river next to the Wei family's Fengyi Anyi (present-day northwest of Xia County, Shanxi) and the Han family's Fengyi Pingyang (southwest of present-day Linfen, Shanxi). Zhi Boyao's words just reminded them that Jinshui could flood Jinyang, and maybe one day An Yi and Pingyang would suffer the same fate as Jinyang.
After Jinyang was flooded, the situation in the city became more and more difficult. Zhao Xiangzi was very anxious, and said to his protégé Zhang Meng: "Although the people's will has not changed, if the water rises again, the whole city will not be able to save it." ”
Zhang Mengtan said: "I see that the Han family and the Wei family will not be willing to cede the land to Zhi Boyao, so I will find a way to talk to them both." ”
That night, Zhao Xiangzi sent Zhang Mengtan to sneak out of the city, first finding Han Kangzi and then Wei Huanzi, and asking them to attack Zhi Boyao together. The Han and Wei families were hesitating, and after Zhang Meng talked about it, they naturally agreed.
The next night, after three more, Zhi Boyao was asleep in his camp when he suddenly heard a shout of death. He hurriedly got up from the bed, found that his clothes and quilt were all wet, and fixed his eyes on the barracks, and the barracks was full of water. At first, he thought that it was probably the mouth of the embankment, and the water poured into his camp, so he hurriedly called the soldiers to repair it. But after a while, the water became more and more intense, and the barracks was completely flooded. Zhi Boyao was panicking, and in a flash, war drums sounded in all directions. Soldiers from the Zhao, Han, and Wei families rushed to kill them all in small boats and rafts. The soldiers of the Wise Family, countless people who have been hacked to death and drowned in the water. Zhi Boyao's entire army was destroyed, and he himself was caught and killed by the people and horses of the three families.
The Zhao, Han, and Wei families destroyed the Zhi family, and not only did they take back the land that Zhi Boyao had encroached on the two families, but even the land of the Zhi family was divided equally between the three families. Later, they divided up the other lands left by the Jin State.
