Most of the civilian and military generals who have been highly shocked since ancient times have not been able to die well.
Far from it, let's say that during the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang's Hongwu Dynasty, wenchen such as Li Shanchang, known as Liu Bowen Liu Ji who knew five hundred years before and five hundred years later, and military generals such as Xu Da and Blue Jade could not die well.
Except for some because of their arrogance and ignorance, such as blue jade, they had to kill, Xu Da. What is wrong with Liu Bowen? Maybe the fault is that their wisdom, force or prestige are too great, and the merit is high, about it.
Prince's past
Emperor Wu of Han was notoriously jealous, not only of his foreign ministers, but also of his own wife and son.
In the later years of Emperor Wu of han, the favored minister Jiang Chong, because of his discord with the crown prince, feared that the prince would take his sacrificial sword after he succeeded to the throne, or be left out in the cold, and preemptively attacked.
Because of the popularity of witchcraft to kill people at that time, Jiang Chong said that Your Majesty's illness was not good because someone used the art of witchcraft to harm you, at that time, because it was a feudal era, it was not as civilized and scientific as it is now, and people at that time believed that this matter was unnecessary, and there were also people who did this, and Emperor Wudi of Han was elderly and sick at that time, so he believed more in the matter of witchcraft.
Ordering a thorough investigation of the imperial palace, and finally "discovering" the doll in the prince's palace, Jiang Chong fabricated "evidence" to frame the prince, saying that the prince could not wait, wanted to sit on the emperor's seat as soon as possible, and gathered the crowd to rebel, because the prince was not in Weiyang Palace at that time, recuperating in Ganquan Palace, and could not hear from him, and could not decide to rebel.
Because the troops were not enough, he asked his mother Wei Zifu for help, saying that it was only possible in extraordinary times, and Wei Zifu thought about it, and the mother must have sided with her son and agreed.
Borrowing the empress seal that could indicate the identity of the empress, his mother Wei Zifu, he opened the armory, took out his weapon, and killed Jiang Chong and others.
From the fact that Emperor Wudi of Han made this move when he was not in Weiyang Palace, it can also be seen that Jiang Chong was sinister and bold, and the timing was appropriate, Emperor Wudi of Han mistakenly believed in the lie, thinking that the crown prince Liu Zhao was plotting rebellion, so he sent troops to suppress it, Liu Zhaobing fled in defeat, and finally committed suicide because he refused to be arrested and humiliated.
Empress Wei Zifu, unable to explain why she helped the crown prince, committed suicide in order to prove her innocence and die in order to die.
Jiang Chong was too bold, thinking that he was very smart, small wisdom was there, big wisdom I did not think, but in fact it was too stupid.
As everyone knows, the prince is the emperor's most trusted son, even if he is blinded for a while, the fate of the final discovery is unimaginably miserable, and the truth is also like this, and later when Emperor Wu of Han found out the truth, he destroyed Jiang Chong to the three tribes.
Originally, the crown prince was used by Emperor Wu because of Jiang Chong's "fearlessness of the magnates" because of Jiang Chong's accusations against Liu Pengzu's crown prince Liu Dan of Zhao for misbehaving.
Once, Liu Zhao sent an emissary to Ganquan Palace to greet Emperor Wu, and the emissary was driving on the road in a carriage, and happened to be met by Jiang Chong, who was following Emperor Wu to Ganquan Palace. Because chi dao was the royal passage of the Son of Heaven, the courtiers and officials could not drive on it without permission. So Jiang Chong detained Liu Zhao's emissaries.
After Liu Zhi received the news, he sent someone to apologize to Jiang Chong, saying: "It is not that I pity the carriage and horses, I really do not want Your Majesty to know about this matter, and I think that I usually do not discipline the people under me." I hope jiang jun can forgive this matter. ”
Jiang Chong did not listen, and still reported to Emperor Wu. Emperor Wu said, "That's how a courtier should be." Jiang Chong was therefore greatly trusted by Emperor Wu, and Wei Zhenjing was the capital of the capital. It is also because of this matter that Liu Zhu and Jiang Chong have formed a gap and laid the root of the curse.
The crown prince, the crown prince, and the great possibility that the next monarch will all go to trouble, it is really ignorant and fearless, Jiang Chong is smart, but only a little clever.
The last dynasty in history to be a beggar
Let's talk about the ministers under Emperor Wu of Han.
During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, there were 13 ministers. They are: Wei Xie, Dou Bao, Xu Chang, Tian Jie, Xue Ze, Gongsun Hong, Li Cai, Zhuang Qingzhai, Zhao Zhou, Shi Qing, Gongsun He, Liu Quyi, and Tian Qianqiu.
Except for Tian Qianqiu, who was an old courtier left by Emperor Wu of Han to his son, the other 12 ministers did not have a good ending, 7 were dismissed, 5 died in prison or committed suicide in fear of crimes, and two were dismissed from their posts who died unnaturally.
Therefore, Emperor Wu of Han said that if you let a person be the prime minister, everyone did not want to do it, saying, "I am too difficult."
The chancellor, under one person, the grace of ten thousand people, the chancellor of the Han Wu Dynasty is the most "sad".
Wei Qing was able to die well
Back to today's protagonist, Wei Qing, the god of war.
As mentioned earlier, Emperor Wu of Han was particularly jealous in his later years, the empress dowager, the chancellor could not be spared, as a great general in the hands of great power, it was normal to be jealous of the emperor, why could Wei Qing alone be able to die well?
Wei Qing, however, was covered up by the glow of his nephew Huo's sick young hero.
Hodge disease
In fact, he and his nephew Huo Went ill were the blades of the two great powers of emperor Wu of Han who sent troops to the Xiongnu, sweeping away the Han Dynasty's talk about the Huns' discoloration, and taking the initiative to attack and win victories again and again, saying that he was the most low-key god of war.
Wei Qing
Wei Qing's first expedition surprise attack on Longcheng opened the prelude to the victory of the Han-Hungarian War, and he won seven battles and seven victories, recovered the Heshuo and Hetao regions, broke shan Yu, and made a major contribution to the development of the northern territory. Wei Qing is good at raising battles with war, dares to go deep with his soldiers, gives strict orders for generals, loves and is kind to his generals, is generous and courteous to his colleagues, and is an extremely popular subject rather than a private authority.
Wei Qingda won the hearts and minds of the military, did not arrogantly pride himself, and did not take the opportunity to establish his own authority, so as not to arouse the suspicion of the monarch and end up in a good end.
During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Wei Qing led troops to attack the Xiongnu as a great general.
His two generals, Su Jian and Zhao Xin, led more than 3,000 cavalrymen, and encountered the Xiongnu army on the way. The Han army and the Xiongnu army fought hard for a day, because there were fewer people, the soldiers suffered casualties, Zhao Xin surrendered to the Xiongnu, and Su Jian fled back to the camp alone.
Zhou Ba, the speaker, suggested to Wei Qing, "Since you sent troops to the Great General, you have never executed a vice general. Now that Su Jian has abandoned his army and fled back alone, he can be killed to show the majesty of the great general. ”
Chang Shi Ren'an said, "This is not possible. Su Jian used thousands of cavalry to resist tens of thousands of enemies and fought hard for a day, while the soldiers had no second thoughts. Now that he was lucky enough to escape from danger, he did not surrender to the Xiongnu, but in the midst of danger, he rushed out of the siege and returned to the barracks, and the great general wanted to kill him instead, is this not to tell future people that it is better to surrender to the enemy when he encounters this situation in the future? I don't think Su Jian should be killed. ”
Wei Qing said, "As a close confidant of the emperor, I led the troops out on the expedition, and I was not afraid of not having majesty. Zhou Ba said that he wanted to show my majesty, which was not in line with my wishes. Although in terms of authority, I have the right to execute my subordinate generals, but with the favor I have received from the Son of Heaven, I do not dare to monopolize the power of life and death outside the Cyprus, but should be sent back to the Beijing Division, ask the Son of Heaven to rule, and can use this to instruct those who are subjects should not monopolize power without authorization. ”
Therefore, Wei Qing ordered su Jian to be escorted to Chang'an to ask Emperor Wu of Han Liu Che to be sent down, and later Emperor Wu of Han did pardon him.
Wei Qing held great power, but he was modest and cautious everywhere, considering the majesty of the Son of Heaven in advance, and then considering himself, which was the reason why he was not suspected by Emperor Wu of Han and was able to die well
