There were more than 400 emperors in ancient Chinese dynasties, and the emperor was the supreme power holder of a country during the feudal period. The power in the hands of the emperor can make them kill whoever they want, but sometimes the emperor regrets the people he killed. During the Han Dynasty, a minister was sentenced to cooking, but the emperor spared him the death penalty after hearing his words before his death.
Cooking refers to the use of a pot to cook people, which has happened in the list of gods in the novel, and Bo Yikao has been used this kind of punishment. The minister who carried out this punishment by the emperor was called Luan Bu, and the emperor was Liu Bang. The matter should also start from Liu Bang's founding heroes, and the two people who said that the killing heroes of these founding emperors in ancient China were Liu Bang and Zhu Yuanzhang. Zhu Yuanzhang killed almost all the heroes who could be killed, Liu Bang was slightly less than him, and there were 145 founding heroes of the Western Han Dynasty who were sealed by Liu Bang after he became emperor.
At first, he knew that he would repay the favor, but then the king's jealousy led him to start killing the heroes. At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, there were three famous generals, Han Xin, Yingbu, and Peng Yue, and the first to be dealt with was Han Xin, Han Xin's art of war was magical, and he also accompanied Liu Bang to birth and death for many years. But liu bang was very jealous of him after becoming emperor, perhaps because Liu Bang was well aware of Han Xin's talents. In the case of day and night, Han Xin planned to rebel, and he let Chen Feng rebel first. Chengye Xiao He defeated Xiao He, and in the 10th year of han (197 BC), after Chen Feng rebelled, Xiao He and Lü Hou first set up a plan to murder Han Xin.
The year after Han Xin's death, Peng Yue was also included in the list. In the previous time when Chen Feng plotted rebellion, Peng Yue had said that he only let his generals go to support, and Liu Bang was angry that he would not come. Peng Yue was still unwilling to rebel in panic, but one of his subordinates advised him to rebel, and Peng Yue actually did not listen. At this time, another person came to accuse Peng Yue of rebellion, and soon after Peng Yue was captured. Originally, it was just exile, but when he met Lü Hou, he cried that he had no crime, and Lü Hou agreed on the side, and after he returned, he told Liu Bang that this person could not stay. Therefore, under lü Hou's design, Peng Yue was once again accused of rebellion, and Liu Bang killed Peng Yue and destroyed his family.
Generally speaking, no one would dare to collect the body of the accused who plotted against him, but Luan Bu stood up. Luan Bu not only collected Peng Yue's body but also gave him mourning, in fact, the two of them knew each other very early. Luan Bu was a Liangdi native, and had contacts with Luan Bu when Peng Yue was a civilian. Later, Luan Bu was sold as a slave, and for some reason became Zang Di's subordinate, Zang Di rebelled, Luan Bu was captured or Peng Yue took him in.
When Peng Yue was killed, Luan Bu was still in the State of Qi, and after Liu Bang killed Peng Yue, he hung his head under luoyang and said that no one was allowed to collect his body. The first thing Luan Bu did after returning to China was to report the situation of the envoy under Peng Yue's head, and while crying, the soldiers immediately grabbed him and gave him to Liu Bang. Liu Bang was still angry at that time, and when he saw Luan Bu crying, Peng Yue said: Are you going to rebel with him? I said that no one is allowed to collect corpses, and you still have to cry, so you can go down and accompany him. Luan Bu was ordered to be sentenced to cooking.
Luan Bu was not afraid, but just turned to Liu Bang and told Liu Bang how Peng Yue had saved Liu Bang in the first place, and also explained that in fact, as long as Peng Yue turned around liu Bang, he would fail, but he did not. And the emperor suspected Peng Yue just because he didn't recruit soldiers, and now that Peng Yue is dead, I might as well go with him. Hearing this, Liu Bang pardoned his sins and only sighed that Luan Bu had not said it earlier.
Peng Yue was rehabilitated, but Han Xin and Yingbu did not have such a good ending, and Yingbu also rebelled after Han Xin and Peng Yue were killed one after another, and later the soldiers were defeated and killed. In fact, these three generals were born and died with Liu Bang, and they did not give up Liu Bang at the most difficult time, but Liu Bang forced them to die one by one for the sake of the stability of the country after his achievements, and relatively speaking, Zhao Kuangyin's cup of wine to release the military power was much milder.
