#History Talk#In the long river of history, there are many princes and generals, heroes and heroes, such big people.
They either strategize and command thousands of troops to swallow mountains and rivers, or they are generous and weeping for the dawn of the world, and so on.
It seems that history should be decided and written by them. However, many times when we look at history, we find that some small people have inadvertently reversed the original course of certain events with a single action or idea. It became what we see today.
Little-known little people are different from villains, they are not as sneaky and sinister as villains. It just looks ordinary and insignificant. However, if those princes who hold things in their hands ignore their existence, then the consequences are unpredictable. Today we will take an inventory of a few small people who changed the trend of history!
No.1 Qin Dynasty - Xia Wuhe
Presumably everyone knows the story of "Jing Ke's assassination of Qin", but do you know who saved the King of Qin between dangers?
In 227 BC (Warring States period), the King of Qin prepared to unify the six kingdoms and destroy Han and Zhao. The Kingdom of Yan became the next target, and King Yan knew that his strength was no match for the State of Qin, so he made a dangerous move to assassinate the King of Qin. Therefore, Jing Ke was recruited and asked Jing Ke to go to the Qin State to assassinate the Qin king with Yan Tu Qian Map and the Qin rebel general Fan Yuzheng.
When he presented the map of Yan Governor, Tu Qiang saw that the King of Qin was defenseless, and his subordinates were frightened by this sudden change. The state of Qin had a rule that all soldiers under his subordinates were not allowed to bring weapons to the King of Qin. Seeing this, the subordinate ministers could only be anxious, Jing Ke's stab missed, and Ying Zheng hurriedly ran around the column. Although Ying Zheng had a sword with him, it was difficult to pull out the sword because it was too long for a while, and the next moment when Jing Ke was about to stab Ying Zheng, Xia Wuhe, the medical officer of Ying Zheng, threw the medicine box in his hand to Jing Ke, and Jing Ke flashed Just for this moment, Huan Zheng pulled out the sword with him and killed Jing Ke.
Who would have thought that a small medical officer's subconscious move would save King Qin's life. After that, the King of Qin swept away the six kingdoms and completed the great cause of unification, thus establishing the first feudal dynasty in the history of the mainland, opening up an imperial era of more than 2,000 years! If Xia Wu hadn't smashed the medicine box towards Jing Ke, wouldn't it be different today?
No.2 Three Kingdoms - Fair Wishes
Jia Kui, a famous general at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, was born in a declining family and aspired to join the army and serve the country from an early age. In the seventh year of Jian'an (202 AD), Yuan Shang sent Guo Yuan, Gao Gan, and Southern Xiongnu Shan Yu to attack Hedong, but Jia Kui resisted desperately, but was eventually outnumbered and taken prisoner. Imprisoned by Guo Yuan, Jia Kui looked haggard in prison, and one day he sighed helplessly: "There is no healthy child evil here, and the righteous man should die here?" "At that time, a guard became interested when he heard it and went out to inquire about Jia Kui. As soon as he heard that Jia Kui was a benevolent and righteous person loved by the people, he was moved by Jia Kui's deeds. So he sneaked into the cell at night and got Jia Kui out. Jia Kui asked, "Can the righteous man save me and leave my name?" Zhu Gong turned around and left without saying a word. It was not until Guo Yuan was defeated that Jia Kui inquired in many ways and learned that the benefactor who saved him was called Zhu Zhengdao. Unfortunately, Zhu Gongdao was beheaded shortly afterwards for violating the criminal law. Jia Kui couldn't do anything, so he had to wear a linen robe to send the last ride to Zhu Gongdao.
Feeling that Jia Kui later gave birth to a son named Jia Chong, and Jia Chong had a daughter named Jia Nanfeng.
This person is ugly-looking, narrow-minded, and cruel. Married to the then mentally disabled emperor, Sima Xin, the Jin Hui Emperor, Jia Nanfeng became empress to control the imperial government, stir up troubles, and force the crown prince Sima Sui. Later, it triggered the Rebellion of the Eight Kings during the Western Jin Dynasty, which directly led to the demise of the Western Jin Dynasty and plunged the land of China into turmoil for more than 300 years.
Who would have thought that Zhu Gong's momentary anger and rescued Jia Kui could trigger such a butterfly effect.
No.3 Late Sui Dynasty and Early Tang Dynasty - Wang Hao
In 618, Li Yuan established the state as emperor and changed the name of the country to Tang. Li Jiancheng was made crown prince, and Li Shimin was crowned King of Qin. Li Shimin laid the foundation for the founding of the Tang Dynasty. Because Li Shimin's merits for the Tang Dynasty were far greater than those of the prince, the prince knew that his battle achievements and prestige were not comparable to Li Shimin, and he was jealous and jealous of his virtuous energy and had long been unbalanced in his heart, so he united with his younger brother Li Yuanji the King of Qi to squeeze out and frame Li Shimin together.
In 626 AD, the Turks spied on the border of the Tang Dynasty. The crown prince Li Jiancheng recommended Li Yuanji to Li Yuan as commander and sent troops to resist the Turkic invasion. Li Yuan agreed to the prince's suggestion, and then Li Yuanji asked Li Yuanzhuo to invite Chi Jingde, Qin Shubao, Cheng Zhijie and other generals under Li Shimin the King of Qin to go together, and Li Yuan readily agreed. Li Jiancheng took this opportunity to control Li Shimin's military power to kill people with a knife, and prepared to set up an ambush to kill the King of Qin. But what Prince Li Jiancheng and Qi King Li Yuanji did not expect was that they had Li Shimin's eyeliner under their noses. That was Wang Hao, who held a more prominent position in the Crown Prince's East Palace, and Wang Hao told Li Shimin all this, and Li Shimin was furious and decided to preemptively strike. This led to the later change of Xuanwumen.
Wang Hao, hearing this name, still doesn't know who he is! If it weren't for Wang Hao's original informant, it is estimated that Li Shimin would have died tragically at the hands of his brothers. There is no great prosperous era in Chinese history, the rule of zhenguan.
Do you know what other little people in history have changed the course of history? Everyone is welcome to discuss.
