Mink cicadas
The mink cicada is one of the four beauties in Chinese history, and the beauty of the "closed moon" in the "closed moon shy flower" refers to the mink cicada.
Marten was also the first female spy in Chinese history.
In 189 AD, the Han Ling Emperor died and Liu Jie took the throne. At that time, the eunuchs led by Zhang Rang were rampant and often framed the ministers on trumped-up charges. The generals He Jin and Yuan Shao plotted to eliminate the eunuchs and enlisted Dong Zhuo, a powerful force from Guanzhong, to lead an army into Beijing to assist. Because Of He Jin's conspiracy leaked, he was killed by Zhang Rang. Yuan Shao took advantage of the chaos to kill the eunuchs, and the capital was in chaos.
Zhang Rang coerced Emperor Liu Wei and his brother Liu Xie from Luoyang and came to the Yellow River, desperate, and Zhang Rang committed suicide by throwing himself into the river. At this moment, Dong Zhuo arrived with his troops and met Emperor Liu Wei by the Yellow River. When the little emperor saw the army, his face was as frightened as earth, and he cried loudly. Dong Zhuo stepped forward to participate in the driving, and Liu Zheng spoke incoherently in horror. Dong Zhuo talked to his brother Liu Xie again and asked about the incident, and Liu Xie, who was only nine years old, replied in an orderly and reasonable manner, and Dong Zhuo liked it very much, so he had the idea of deposing Liu Xie and supporting Liu Xie. On the same day, Dong Zhuo escorted the emperor back to the palace, and this fortuitous opportunity made Dong Zhuo win the great merit of protecting the emperor.
Yuan Shao
When Dong Zhuo first arrived in Luoyang, his soldiers were no more than three thousand, and he knew that he had a single book of troops, and he was afraid that he would not be able to intimidate the near and far. In order to usurp the government, we must develop our own forces. Soon, Dong Zhuo used a method of provoking dissension, so that Lü Bu, the general who was in charge of Jin Wudingyuan, assassinated Ding Yuan and annexed Ding Yuan's troops, and his strength was strengthened. From then on, the power of the DPRK and China was completely controlled by Dong Zhuo alone. At this time, Dong Zhuo wanted to depose The Young Emperor and make Liu Xie emperor. He first greeted Yuan Shao, commander of the Gyeonggi Garrison (Lieutenant Colonel), and said: "The lord of the world should be played by a wise man, I think Liu Xie is much stronger than the emperor's son Liu Xie, I plan to establish Liu Xie as emperor, if Liu Xie can't do it, the liu surname royal family, should not keep the seed!" There is often a phenomenon in dealing with people, small things are smart, big things are confused, this matter does not know how to do well, specially discuss with you. Yuan Shao said: "The Eastern and Western Han dynasties ruled China for about 400 years. The emperor is now young and has no bad deeds. If the deposed concubine (Liu Xie) was deposed and replaced by Shuzi (Liu Xie), the people of the world would not agree with the general's opinion. ”
Dong Zhuo was furious when he heard this, pressed his sword in his hand, and shouted loudly, "What are you, you dare to use this attitude towards me!" The great affairs of the world are in my hands, and I want to do them, who dares not follow them! You think Dong Zhuo's knife is not sharp enough?! ”
Yuan Shao was furious and said, "Heroes of the world, you are the only one!" He drew his saber and made a half-circle stroke at the officials present, and fled with great enthusiasm.
Dong Zhuo
Dong Zhuo was newly arrived in the capital, and Yuan Shao was a family member, and he did not dare to kill. Yuan Shao hung Fu Jie (Gyeonggi Garrison Commander Fu Jie) above the East Gate and defected to Jizhou.
Dong Zhuo saw Yuan Shao leave in anger, so he summoned the hundred officials of Wen and Wu and announced vigorously: "The emperor is weak and cannot worship the Zongmiao Temple as the lord of the world." Now it is changed to Liu Xie to succeed to the throne, what do you think? ”
All the officials were terrified, bowed their heads and did not speak, and Dong Zhuo angrily shouted: "Whoever dares to oppose it, the military law is engaged." ”
All of you here were horrified.
Liu Xie was made emperor for the sake of Emperor Xian of Han, but in fact a plaything in Dong Zhuo's hands, first having the emperor make him a lieutenant and a former general and Marquis of Huan, and then a Xiangguo. Promoted his brother Dong Min to the rank of General Zuo and nephew Dong Huang to commander of the Chinese army, holding military power. Families and relatives surnamed Dong poured into the imperial court in large numbers. Even the baby in the arms of his concubine was made a marquis, using gold seals and purple ribbons as toys.
Dong Zhuo built a huge wall (dock) in Yu County, with a wall of seven zhang in height and seven zhang thick, storing grain that could be eaten by the whole city for 30 years. He said to himself: "Things can dominate the world, but it is enough to defend this city to spend the old age." Dong Zhuo was murderous, and the general killed him immediately if he made a slight mistake in his speech, Lü Bu and he were the same father and son, and were his personal bodyguards, and once, angry for a small matter, he threw his hand straight at Lü Bu, because Lü Bu dodged and was agile, he was spared death.
Dong Zhuo's actions caused strong dissatisfaction inside and outside the DPRK. In 190 AD, the prefectures and counties of Kwantung (east of Hangu Pass) rebelled against Dong Zhuo, and the princes who raised the army at that time were Yuan Shao, the county magistrate of Bohai (Nanpi County, Hebei Province), Wang Kuang, the county magistrate of Hanoi (Wuzhi County, Henan Province), Han Fu, the governor of Jizhou (central Hebei Province), The Thorn Shi KongTuo of Yuzhou (Henan Province), Liu Dai of Yanzhou (western Shandong Province), Zhang Miao, the county chief of Chen Liu (Chenliu County, Henan Province), Zhang Chao, the county chief of Guangling (Yangzhou, Jiangsu Province), ChangQiao Mao of Dongyu (Puyang County, Henan Province), and Yuan Yi, the county chief of Shanyang (Jinxiang County, Shandong Province). Bao Xin, the chancellor of the State of Jibei (Changqing County, Shandong Province), plus Cao Cao and Yuan Shu. Hundreds of thousands of people and horses from all walks of life jointly promoted Yuan Shao as the leader of the alliance, each with soldiers and horses, and slaughtered Ben Luoyang and attacked Dong Zhuo.
In order to resist the resistance of Yuan Shao's allied forces, Dong Zhuo coerced the emperor to move the capital to Chang'an, ordered all the rich people in Luoyang to be gathered, executed, and confiscated their property, and countless people died, and drove tens of thousands of people from Luoyang to Chang'an. More than 700 miles from Luoyang to Chang'an, Dong Zhuo ordered his cavalry to pursue him in the rear, piling up corpses along the way. Dong Zhuo's remaining soldiers set fire to Luoyang's Bigui Garden (one of the Imperial Gardens) and the imperial palace, turning the luxurious Luoyang into ruins, and Dong Zhuo ordered the excavation of the graves of the emperors of the Eastern Han Dynasty, as well as the three ministers and all high-ranking officials, to loot the treasure.
Seeing that Dong Zhuo's power was getting stronger and stronger, Wang Yun, the chancellor of the Situ Dynasty, had no choice but to bend over backwards and tell Dong Zhuo everything in detail, and Dong Zhuo and Wang Yun became close friends, and the two often interacted, and there was no doubt about it. In fact, Wang Yun stabilized Dong Zhuo, making him unguarded, and secretly tried to get rid of Dong Zhuo. Wang Yun pondered day and night about how to get rid of Dong Zhuo, and for a long time he did not find a good way, and he was so tired that he was haggard and his food and accommodation seemed to be wandering. Dong Zhuo saw that Wang Yun's face was not good, thinking that he was overworked, extra concerned, and came to the door from time to time to greet him.
Wang Yun
Wang Yun saw Dong Zhuo so he dared to run amok in the government and the opposition, mainly because of Lü Bufuzuo. Lü Bufeng, after assassinating Ding Yuan, defected to Dong Zhuo, and the two became father and son. To eliminate Dong Zhuo, we must first break up the relationship between Dong Zhuo and Lü Bu, and he wants to start with Lü Bu first. Wang Yun took out the jewels in his family collection and gave them to Lü Bu, who naturally exchanged gifts and came to the door to thank him, and since then, the two have exchanged with each other and become friendly. Wang Yun also thought that with property as bait, there must be a beautiful person to seduce Lü Bu. The idea had been decided, so he went out to look for a color, but there happened to be a song of prostitute mink cicadas, smart and lively, like flowers like jade, Wang Yun was summoned into the palace, warmly received, accepted as a righteous daughter, the mink cicada's love for Wang Yun, grateful to Dade, only to repay. One day, the marten cicada saw that Wang Yun's eyebrows were not raised, and he was sullen and unhappy, and when there was no one, he asked Wang Yun about it. Wang Yunzheng wanted to tell her, so he led dong Zhuo to the secret room, and Dong Zhuo wanted to usurp power, and the minister of the Chinese wu had nothing to do, and now the people were in danger of being upside down, and the monarch was in a hurry, and he saw that the Han Dynasty was about to be destroyed, and told her in detail, and pleaded: "You want to pity the Han Dynasty and help me!" ”
The marten cicada said indignantly: "The concubines are gracious to the lord, and there is no way to repay the hatred, but they have a mission and will not give up in death." ”
At this time, Wang Yuncai expressed his intention to take her first Xu Dongzhuo and then Xu Lübu, to break up their father-son relationship, and borrow Lü Bu's hand to get rid of Dong Zhuo.
The marten cicada resolutely replied, "As long as it is beneficial to the country, why bother with a concubine?" Respectfully. ”
Wang Yun was also afraid that the mink cicada would leak the secret, and repeatedly instructed that after the mink cicada swore an oath to the heavenly alliance, he bowed to the mink cicada, and the mink cicada hurriedly ambushed Wang Yun and lifted wang Yun up before retreating.
The next day, Wang Yun set up a feast, invited Lü Bu to a banquet, the wine was half drunk, that is, summoned the mink cicada to come forward to wait, Lü Bu saw the mink cicada dressed in a beautiful costume, Ran Ran, walked to Lü Bu's seat, first said a blessing, and then gently raised his jade hand, lifted the pot to pour, Lü Bu saw that it was really a national color, unheard of, especially when she moved in autumn waves, she actually took Lü Bu's soul over. Lü Bu asked Wang Yun, "Who is this woman?" Wang Yun said, "It is the righteous female cicada under the cicada." Lü Bu asked again whether he had allowed anyone, and Wang Yun told him that he had not yet allowed anyone. Lü Bu was full of praise, and Wang Yunsui said to Lü Bu: "If the general is not disgusted, I want to give the mink cicada to the general as a concubine. ”
As soon as Lü Bu heard this, he jumped up and bowed to Wang Yun, "If Situ gave me this daughter, it is really immeasurable kindness, and I swear to repay the favor!" Wang Yun agreed on the time to send the mink cicada. Lü Bu returned happily and sat down to sleep with the mink cicada.
After a few days, Wang Yun saw Lü Bu out, so he invited Dong Zhuo to a banquet, and when Dong Zhuo was slightly drunk, he still made the mink cicada out of the hall to sing and dance. Dong Zhuoben is a sex ghost, how can he not be moved when he sees the mink cicada? When asked about the origin of this woman, Wang Yun only told the prostitute, not the righteous woman, Dong Zhuo praised: "It is really a beautiful person!" Wang Yun took the seat and said that he was willing to dedicate this woman to The Master, but he did not know whether he would accept it? Dong Zhuo replied with a smile on his face: "If you see hui like this, why should you repay the virtue?" Wang Yun said, "It is really fortunate that the marten cicada can serve the Taishi for three lifetimes." "When the wine is dispersed, the order car will send the mink cicadas."
The next day Lü Bu rushed to wang yun in anger, and Wang Yun pretended: "Master Taishi knows that I will be a righteous daughter Xu with a general, and I have come to pick it up, how dare I stop it?" The general asked Master Ming to marry the little girl! ”
Lü Bu went back to ask, the mink cicada had been possessed by Dong Zhuo, and filled his chest with anger, and then asked Wang Yun, who said: "People have many mouths, it may be misinformation, how can Taishi be willing to rape and occupy his daughter-in-law?" Please go to the general to find out again. ”
Lü Bu listened to Wang Yun's words and went back to inquire, but it happened that Dong Zhuo entered the dynasty and came to Fengyi Pavilion, just in time to meet the mink cicada, the mink cicada saw Lü Bu, the tears fell like rain, choking more than once, Lü Bu saw her tears flowing, busy wiping her tears, the mink cicada pushed with his hand: "Don't dirty your hands, I have been occupied by the Taishi, I only want to be willing to die with you, the concubine is Wang Situ's righteous daughter, she has promised the general as a concubine, her life is also satisfied, I did not expect to fall into the deception, I was forcibly occupied, my body has been raped, and I have no face to see the general again." "Say it's going to jump into the lake." Lü Bu hurriedly rushed forward to wrap his arms around the thin waist of the mink cicada, and if the mink cicada refused, the song was warm. The two hugged tightly, and in the middle of the conversation, suddenly a person ran and shouted, the sound was like a cow roaring, Lü Bu looked back, it was his righteous father Dong Zhuo, who fled out in a hurry, Dong Zhuo took a halberd and stabbed at Lü Bu, Lü Bu was dexterous, dodged the halberd, and flew out. Dong Zhuo was old and fat, he couldn't catch up, he turned back angrily to rebuke the mink cicada, the mink cicada fell into Dong Zhuo's arms, tears flowed, saying that Lü Bu came to tease her, she was about to jump into the lake, Fang Taishi saved his life, Dong Zhuo was fascinated by the color, and was coaxed by her.
Lü Bu gasped and came to see Wang Yun, and told Wang Yun what had happened in Fengyi Pavilion, Wang Yun was very happy in his heart, but pretended to be very angry, sometimes bowed his head and sighed, sometimes looked up, and took the opportunity to provoke Lü Bu, Wang Yun said: "Taishi fornicated my daughter, took the general's wife, the world should laugh in shame, but not laughing at Taishi, but laughing at me and the general, I am old, not enough, but unfortunately the general's hero is also insulted by this!" Lü Bu was furious and shouted at the case. Wang Yun hurriedly said, "The old man lost his word, and the general was angry." Lü Bu said: "I want to kill this old thief, but unfortunately it is a father-son relationship, which may make future generations laugh in shame." Wang Yun smiled, "Your surname is Lu, his surname is Dong." Now that it is too late to worry about death, what father and son are we talking about? When Dong Zhuo threw the sword at you, did he have a father-son relationship? Lü Bu seemed to wake up like a dream, and said indignantly: "If it were not for Situ's reminder, it would almost be a mistake." Wang Yun saw that Lü Bu's determination had been made, so he said: "The general should support the Han Room, pass on the name of Qing Shi, and pass on the name of Qing Shi to the hundred generations." Lü Bu bowed down and said, "Bu Yi has already decided, Situ has no doubts!" ”
Wang Yun discussed with Lü Bu and his servant Sun Rui how to take action, and Shi Sun Rui said: "When the emperor is newly cured, he can send people to Gaowu to ask Dong Zhuo for discussion, and on the one hand, he will pay Lü Bu with a secret edict from the Son of Heaven, so that the ambush troops will be inside the gate, and when Dong Zhuo enters the door, he will rise up and kill him." So he went from his confidant Li Su to Guowu to command Dong Zhuo to return to the dynasty.
Dong Zhuo got out of the car, and Li Su walked with a sword in his hand. Arriving at the Beiye Gate, Dong Zhuo saw Wang Yun and others standing at the palace gate with their swords, and asked Li Su in surprise, "What does it mean to hold a sword?" "Li Su should not, push the cart straight in." During the walk, Li Su raised his halberd and stabbed at Dong Zhuo, who was wrapped in armor and could not enter, and his injured arm fell into the car, shouting: "Where is my son Lü Bu?" Lü Bu snapped from behind the car, "There are thieves!" "A knife stabbed straight into the throat and killed immediately."
Lü Bu took the edict from his arms and shouted, "Obey the edict to please Dong Zhuo, and the others will not ask!" "Long live the generals." When the people received this good news, they were overjoyed, singing and dancing in the Tao, and the women in Chang'an City sold their pearls and jade clothes and bought wine and meat to celebrate. The whole city is crowded with joy. Dong Zhuo's violent corpse on the street, when it was hot, Dong Zhuo was fat, grease flowed all over the ground, the corpse guards, made a lamp, inserted it into the navel, lit it with fire, the fire rose, the sky did not go out, the people passed, all of them threw their heads with their hands and kicked their corpses with their feet. Finally, the ashes are thrown away in the Tao.
Wang Yun also ordered Lü Bu to lead 50,000 troops to the county town of Yu County to raid his home. Lü Bu went to Guowu and took the mink cicada first. Dong Zhuo's relatives, young and old, were killed, even Dong Zhuo's old mother was no exception. Dong Zhuo's family accumulated 20,000 or 30,000 catties of gold, 80,000 or 90,000 catties of silver, QiLuo and treasures, piled up like hills.
The emperor appointed Situ Wang Yun to be in charge of the court secrets (Record Shang Shu Shi), and promoted Lü Bu to be the general of Fenwei and Wang Yun to run the imperial government together.
Sable Cicada used the beauty plan to successfully break up lü Bu Dong Zhuo's relationship, get rid of the traitor Dong Zhuo, and achieve a legend through the ages.
