Before the emperor died, he begged the prince to give him a dish, and when he heard the name of the dish, the prince went up with a knife!
There are many things that have happened in history, especially in the royal family, all kinds of power struggles, dark tides. There is also a serious desire to seize the throne among the various princes. In the royal family, not only will the courtiers seize the throne, but even the sons will kill their fathers to seize the throne. During the Spring and Autumn Period, such an incident occurred. The emperor was coerced into committing suicide by his own son, and he asked to eat a dish before he died, but the prince, after hearing the name of the dish, did not hesitate to kill the emperor directly. What's going on?
This poor emperor was actually not an emperor, but the king of the Chu state at that time, the name was called Chu Cheng Wang, Chu Cheng Wang should have been very capable at that time, he governed the Chu State at that time very very well, as the king Chu Cheng Wang was very brainy at that time, he knew early that if he wanted the country to continue to develop well, he had to choose a good prince early, at that time he had a son named Shang Chen, this son was very intelligent, but what he didn't know was that this son was actually a full "heart boy" He bribed many people around King Chu Cheng at that time
King Chu Cheng could be called a relatively qualified emperor, and under his rule the State of Chu became very powerful, far exceeding other countries at that time, but King Chu Cheng was reluctant to pass the throne to the prince, because he felt that the prince had no way to take on the responsibility and wanted to pass the throne to others. However, at that time, the prince was already full of wings, and the performance of King Chu Cheng was too obvious, so the prince finally chose to launch a coup d'état and surrounded the entire palace.
At this time, King Chu Cheng made a small request to his son: Can I eat a bear paw and die? Even if you die, you can't be a hungry ghost! But his son Shang Chen, thinking that his father was stalling for time, was a knife! Poor Chu Chengwang's generation of heroes, he actually died tragically under his son's sword.
