Introduction: There were five overlords in the Spring and Autumn Period of ancient China, namely qi huan, jin wengong, chuzhuang wang, qin mugong and song xianggong, jin wengong was the twenty-second monarch of the northern power Jin state at that time, once hegemonic, and later his grandson, Jin Jinggong, also defeated the chu state and became the terminator of the chu zhuang king's hegemony, but as a monarch with considerable political achievements in the Spring and Autumn period, jin Jinggong's death method was very special, he actually fell into the dung pit and was choked to death, what is going on? Let's take a look.
Jin Jinggong, named Ji Jie, is the grandson of the Spring and Autumn Five Lords Jin Wengong, the son of jin chenggong, he is the classic story "Orphan of Zhao" in the time of the jin state monarch, listen to rumors and innocently kill the Zhao clan, this matter has become a stain on the life of the Jin Jinggong, but the Jin Jinggong is indeed a more effective monarch, the previous Jin Cheng duke succeeded to the throne seven years ago died young, after the Jin Jing duke succeeded to the throne, through a series of wars to coordinate the relationship with the various princely states, such as the defeat of the Chu state, the end of the Chu Zhuang king hegemony, the defeat of the State of Qi, The Qi-Jin alliance was restored. However, the six-secretary system founded by the Duke of Jin Jing left hidden dangers for the future division of the Jin state.
It is said that when Jin Jinggong reached old age, his legs and feet were not very good, and his body was not as good as a day, but as an ancient king, he had a dream: I really want to live for another five hundred years! Therefore, Jin Jinggong invited a divine witch to calculate for himself, but he had threatened to kill the divine witch if the calculation was not accurate, this divine witch was indeed an excellent fortune teller, he pinched his fingers, knowing that jin jinggong's Yang life was not much. Who knows, this divine witch actually told the truth, saying that Jin Jinggong would not be able to eat the wheat that would be new in the coming year. Jin Jinggong was of course very unhappy when he heard this, so he locked up the divine witch, wanting the divine witch to see if he could eat the new wheat for the next year.
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was time for the new wheat to come down, and when the new wheat was ripe, the Jin Jinggong immediately ordered the local officials to offer the new wheat and grind it into flour and boil it into porridge. After the porridge was boiled and served, Jin Jinggong ordered the person to bring the divine witch up and said triumphantly: "Mr. Shenwu, I can eat the new wheat right away, but you have no chance to eat it, because you are not accurate!" "After saying that, people pulled the witch out and killed it." Subsequently, Jin Jinggong took up the bowl to drink porridge, who knew that at this time, Jin Jinggong felt that his stomach had a sense of leakage, and immediately put down the porridge that he had time to eat in the future and hurried to the toilet. Unexpectedly, Jin Jinggong actually had no return, and later the attendants found that Jin Jinggong had actually fallen into the dung pit, and by the time he rescued him, he had already lost his breath.
Unexpectedly, the divine witch's calculation was so accurate, Jin Jinggong did not eat the next year's new wheat and died, but also died in a strange way, it was really funny, it turned out that everything should not be happy too early, or it is better to keep a low profile.
