From the story of his humiliation and burden, we feel the true meaning of life, that is, "a gentleman takes revenge, ten years is not too late", it can be said that the story of Gou Jian has touched generations of people, and posterity has learned a lot in his story.
However, people rarely know that the queen Yayu, who suffered various humiliations with Gou Jian in the Wu Kingdom, actually ended her life by suicide after Gou Jian destroyed the Wu Kingdom to avenge the snow hatred, and many people are more curious, why did Yayu commit suicide? Does all this have anything to do with collusion?
Yayu and Gou Jian suffered humiliation together in the Kingdom of Wu
Yayu is a beauty, when Gou Jian was still the prince of Yueguo, Yayu had already married Gou Jian to become his wife, in 496 BC, after the death of King Yun chang of yue kingdom, the prince Gou Jian immediately succeeded to the throne as the king of Yue, and Yayu, who had long been married to Gou Jian, was thus named queen of Yue.
According to such a beginning, the two should have enjoyed the glory and wealth, who ever thought that some of the changes that occurred later had completely changed the fate of the two people, making people feel that the world was impermanent. After the death of King Yun Chang of the State of Yue, although Gou Jian succeeded to the throne as the new king, this good life did not last long, and when the State of Yue was in the period of national mourning, the King of the State of Wu took advantage of the fire and robbery and sent troops to attack the State of Yue.
Gou Jian, who had just ascended to the throne, was a wise man, he saw that his army was not as strong as wu, so he found a group of dead soldiers, and told these dead soldiers to take a knife to the Wu army, and when they were about to approach the Wu army, the dead soldiers directly cut off their own heads with a knife, and that kind of bloody scene made the Wu soldiers afraid, and they were instantly frightened by the State of Yue.
In a battle, the morale of the soldiers is very important, after Gou Jian arranged for the dead soldiers to do so, the morale of the Wu army was seriously reduced, and Gou Jian then took the opportunity to attack the State of Wu, and soon the soldiers of the State of Wu broke up and fled, in the process of escaping, Lu Lu's toes were cut off several times, and after returning to the State of Wu, he died because of ineffective medical treatment.
After the death of Fu Lu, the state of Wu was succeeded by Fu Cha as the new king, Fu Cha was always worried about his father's death, he believed that Fu Lu's death was caused by a single hand, killing his father must be revenge, coupled with the fact that the military strength of the State of Yue itself was not as good as that of the State of Wu, so Fu Cha was even more rampant, and soon after succeeding to the throne, he led a large army to attack the State of Yue.
The last time Gou Jian was able to win a victory, to some extent it was a fluke, this time Fu Cha led more troops to conquer the Yue Kingdom, Gou Jian had long been unable to return to heaven, after careful consideration, accepted the advice of the minister Wen Zhong, bribed the Wu State Dazai to intercede with Fu Cha, and let Gou Jian surrender on the condition of calling The Minister.
Fu Cha saw that Gou Jian had surrendered, so he did not kill it, agreed to Gou Jian's condition of surrender, and after surrendering, he took Gou Jian to the strict custody of wu guo, in order to insult Gou Jian, Fu Cha also let Gou Jian and Queen Yayu be his slaves and serve his life.
From this time on, the tragic life of Gou Jian and Yayu was officially opened, they endured humiliation and burden in the Wu Kingdom, suffered all kinds of inhuman treatment and humiliation from their husbands, if it were not for Gou Jian always had the great ambition to restore the country and take revenge, presumably the husband and wife would have committed suicide long ago.
Life is sometimes so interesting, you have to admit the influence of faith on people, for Gou Jian, his faith and ideal is to restore the country, revenge and hatred, although this ideal does not seem to be very patterned, but it has always supported Gou Jian to live.
Although Fu Cha did not kill Gou Jian, from the moment Gou Jian surrendered, Fu Cha never stopped humiliating Gou Jian, the simplest of which was to let Gou Jian guard the grave of Lu Lu, to be a groom for himself, to lie on the ground as a horse bench when he got on his horse, and after riding on the horse, he also had to bow his head and lead the horse, and he had to be obedient to Fu Cha, otherwise he might lose his life.
It can be said that Fu Cha did everything in order to humiliate Gou Jian, but Gou Jian always adhered to the belief in his heart, no matter what kind of humiliation he received according to the order, never showed a trace of dissatisfaction, in Fu Cha's view, Gou Jian has generally become his own slave.
Seeing that the first step was about to succeed, Gou Jian planned to go further, so that Fu Cha completely trusted himself and reduced his defenses against himself, so Gou Jian did something that made future generations marvel, that is, when Fu Cha was about to recover from illness, he directly tasted Fu Cha's feces.
After tasting Fuchai's feces in the astonished eyes of a group of people, Gou Jian excitedly told Fucha that his illness was about to be cured. Gou Jian's move shocked Fu Cha, and he felt that Gou Jian had completely regarded himself as a slave and would never have any more ideas of restoration or other thoughts.
After gaining the trust of Fu Cha, Gou Jian began to carry out the second step, that is, to request to return to the Yue Kingdom, Fu Cha was originally going to agree to Gou Jian's request, and as a result, Wu Guo Xiang Guo Wu Zixu did not believe in Gou Jian and planned to find an opportunity to test Gou Jian, and in this special historical background, Gou Jian Queen Yayu became a victim.
In order to test whether Gou Jian really had no shame, Wu Zixu actually found Gou Jian when the Jin envoys visited Wu Guo, and found Gou Jian's request to let his wife Yayu serve the Jin envoys, and after Yayu heard about it, he immediately committed suicide, but Gou Jian inhumanely agreed to let Yayu serve the Jin envoys.
In order to prevent Yayu from committing suicide, Wu Zixu also threatened Yayu with the life of Gou Jian, Yayu had no choice but to agree, but after serving the emissaries of the Jin Dynasty, Yayu's heart was like ashes, and from then on, her life was basically just like the walking dead, in Yayu's heart, at that moment, maybe she was dead, in Gou's heart, that humiliation has reached its peak and can never be forgotten.
After Wu Zixu used such a shady plan to test Gou Jian, he also thought that Gou Jian really had no humanity, and finally agreed to let Gou Jian return to Yue, and the second step of the Gou Jian plan was finally successfully completed, which was a pity that the price paid for this step was too great, and it became the biggest shame in his and Yayu's life.
Why did Yayu commit suicide?
After Gou Jian returned to Yue Kingdom, he began to carry out the third step of the plan, he first sent the beautiful woman Xi Shi to Fu Cha, so that Fu Cha was gradually consumed by beauty, and then Gou Jian also gave Fu Cha various rare treasures, so that Fu Cha believed that Gou Jian did not have the heart to restore the country, not only that, Gou Jian in order to clean up Wu Zixu, deliberately provoked the relationship between Fu Cha and Wu Zi Xu, after some operations by Gou Jian, Wu Zi Xu was finally killed by Fu Cha, and the State of Wu gradually declined.
On the one hand, the decline of the State of Wu, on the other hand, the state of Yue is getting stronger, the opportunity that Gou Jian has waited for for many years has finally arrived, he did not hesitate, directly led a large army to attack the State of Wu, when Gou Jian stood in front of Fu Cha again, Fu Cha finally suddenly realized that the original Gou Jian was not a dog that lost his family, but a terrible wolf.
The general trend has gone, Fu Cha knelt down and begged Gou To spare his own life, but unfortunately Gou Jian did not spare any mercy from his subordinates, directly forcing Fu Cha to commit suicide, after Fu Cha's death, the State of Wu also became the ruling area of the Yue State, and the strength of Gou Jian increased a lot. The great vengeance has been repaid, and it is time to stabilize the internal regime.
The first step to stabilize the internal political power is to first cut the power of the heroes, in the years of practicing the salary and tasting the courage, the biggest heroes are Wen And Fan Li, wen has been going all out to build the Yue country, so that the Yue country is still stronger without hooking, it is the first meritorious minister, Fan Li in order to complete the great cause of the restoration of the country, at the expense of giving up his beloved woman Xi Shi, has always spared no effort to support the Gou Guo, but also the greatest contribution.
In order to prevent the two from having an impact on their own internal regime, Gou Jian first forced Fan Li, so that Fan Li had no choice but to leave the Country of Vietnam to do business, and before Fan Li left, he advised Wen Chuan to protect himself as soon as possible, but unfortunately Wen Li did not listen to Fan Li's advice, and finally was given the sword by Gou Jian to commit suicide.
When Gou Jian was doing these things, Queen Yayu had always witnessed it with her own eyes, and she understood that after Fan Li and Wen Zi were cleaned up, the next one should be herself, after all, those shames that had been there, Gou Jian must not want to think about it. Sure enough, although Gou Jian had never mentioned a word about Yayu serving the envoys of the Jin Dynasty, since that incident, Gou Jian had obviously been cold to Yayu.
After the restoration, Gou Jian was rarely with Yayu, but found a lot of beautiful women to enjoy in the palace, never asked Yayu's feelings, Yayu as the queen, but did not have any real power, she knew that it was time to leave, so she committed suicide, ending her short and legendary life.
epilogue
Many people think that Yayu's death is because Gou Jian wants her to die, in fact, I think it is not so, Gou Jian absolutely did not have the idea of killing Ya Yu, but those unforgettable past events, Gou Jian did not want to mention, so he would snub Ya Yu, try to ask the king of a country, if it is known that his wife is toyed with by others, where is the face of Gou Jian? Yayu is deeply in love with Gougou, so she does not want to see Gougou embarrassed, will be able to commit suicide to give the two freedom and liberation, in a sense, Yayu is great, but Gou is really a cruel person in people's mouths? I don't think so, after all, the old saying has clouds: "Without the suffering of others, do not persuade others to be good", if you are cheating, what will you do, and what can you do?
