Hu Hai has all the problems of a playboy, and he is especially selfish and willful.

Qin II Huhai was an emperor who was both stupid and promiscuous

Qin Shi Huang

Huhai, the second emperor of the Qin Dynasty and the eighteenth son of the First Emperor of Qin. He had no achievements in his life, and he was a typical boy, stupid and absurd. He was the second emperor of Qin and the last emperor of the Qin dynasty. He was able to become emperor all thanks to Zhao Gao; And in the end, he was forced to commit suicide, also because of Zhao Gao. It can be said that in his life, success is also Zhao Gao, defeat is also Zhao Gao.

Hu Hai was the youngest son of Qin Shi Huang, and although he also received a good court education as a prince, these did not seem to have any effect on him. He is by nature the temper of a son-in-law, and does not have any demeanor that an imperial family should have. Once, Qin Shi Huang feasted the ministers and summoned his sons to dinner. The Qin system stipulated that courtiers must take off their shoes before entering the palace when they meet the emperor, and the shoes must be placed on the steps outside the hall in an orderly manner. Hu Hai has always been pampered, does not pay attention to etiquette at all, and likes to mess around. After he had eaten and drunk, he did not want to stay in the main hall to listen to the ministers talk about political affairs, so he ran out and wandered around. Seeing the neatly arranged shoes outside the main hall, on a whim, he followed the ranks of shoes, kicking as he walked, kicking all the shoes in a mess, before leaving satisfied. Later, when he became emperor, he was just as foolish, and the Qin dynasty perished in his frolic.

The first emperor had many sons, and the eldest son, Fusu, did not like him. However, as a generation of emperors, for the sake of the Qin family's "inheritance", he still very sensibly chose the eldest son, the most talented of all his sons, as an heir to cultivate. As the youngest son, Hu Hai is the most similar to him in terms of lustful play, so he is very pampered.

When Qin Shi Huang last toured the world, Hu Hai was 21 years old. But he was still fun and wanted to follow his father to have fun, and the first emperor agreed. At this time, Gongzi Fusu was sent by the first emperor to supervise the army in the northern border county. No one expected that the First Emperor would die on the way back from this cruise. Prime Minister Li Si saw that the first emperor died on the way, fearing that the princes of Xianyang would compete for inheritance and the rebellion of the world, so he decided not to lose his life and continue to rush back to Xianyang. Hu Hai's fate began to change from this moment, but it was because of a person named Zhao Gao.

Zhao Gaoben was a eunuch, and his father Zhao Sheng was a servant who accompanied Qin Shi Huang's father Zichu to the state of Zhao. Zhao Gao was born in the same year as Qin Shi Huang, followed him since childhood, and he was proficient in prison law, tall and strong, and able to write well, and was promoted by Qin Shi Huang to the order of Zhongche Fu, in charge of the emperor's carriage and horse honor guard, and was one of the few people who was deeply trusted by the first emperor. In fact, he is sinister, cunning, and ambitious. When Shi Huang died, the edict passed to Fusu was in Zhao Gao's hands, but he kept it secret. If Zhao Gao wanted to tamper with the edict and take the opportunity to control the regime, he needed an incompetent prince as a puppet, and Hu Hai was the best candidate.

Hu Hai had no ambitions and never thought of becoming an emperor. Zhao Gao instigated cleverly. Although Hu Hai did not want to be an emperor, he thought that if he was an emperor, he could enjoy himself as he wanted, and he moved the heart to seize power. And Lees has also seen the testament. Li Si was the prime minister of the Qin Dynasty, and he proposed many reform measures and suggestions to Qin Shi Huang, including that Qin Shi Huang's book burning was also caused by his suggestions, so that countless people died because of him. Fusu has always been dissatisfied with these measures. Zhao Gao threatened Li Si that if Fusu became emperor, he would be the first to kill. Li Si was afraid, and in order to save his life, he had to agree to support Hu Hai in inheriting the throne. Therefore, under the manipulation of Zhao Gao, Li Si and others, he forged an edict and forced his eldest son Fusu to death, and then Hu Hai ascended the throne as emperor and became the second emperor of Qin.

Hu Hai's throne came improperly, and he himself was weak-hearted, so he thought that he must first get rid of dissidents before he could truly sit on the throne. Zhao Gao, who had become a favored courtier, instigated Hu Hai to adopt an iron-blooded policy. Hu Hai's rule was more brutal than Qin Shi Huang's, and a bloody massacre soon unfolded.

Hu Hai first killed the brothers Meng Tian and Meng Yi. The Meng family has produced talents for generations, and has made great contributions to the unification of the Qin Dynasty. Hu Hai decided to take them off. Then he used this as an excuse to let Zhao Gao undertake the case, so that there were countless plants. Zhao Gao also took the opportunity to install his cronies and began to cultivate his own power. And Hu Hai stupidly thought that Zhao Gao's cronies were his own cronies. The worst are Hu Hai's siblings. 12 of the brothers were beheaded, 6 brothers and 10 sisters were crushed to death, and the rest were forced to commit suicide. Among them, Gongzi Gao saw that he could not dodge, and he proposed to be martyred for his father at the foot of Lishan Mountain, and Hu Hai agreed, so he was considered a decent point to die.

The ministers and children of the imperial family were almost killed, and Hu Hai, instigated by Zhao Gao, killed a large number of local officials. In the end, even Li Si, who supported him to the throne, was not spared. Li Si revealed that Zhao Gao had ambitions, but was bitten back by Zhao Gao. Hu Hai was faint and incompetent, and only listened to Zhao Gao. In the end, Zhao Gaoluo fabricated Li Si's crime and beat him into a trick. In the second year of Hu Hai's accession to the throne, Li Si was sentenced to be beheaded at the waist, and finally chopped into meat sauce and beheaded all over the house.

After killing all the people who obstructed the eyes with extreme severe punishment, Hu Hai completely sat back and relaxed. He always liked to have fun, and now, like his father, he went on a rampage, requisitioned people, and repaired palace rooms. Soon the people's strength dried up, and the once powerful Qin Dynasty reached the point where there was no one to recruit.

As a result, popular grievances grew, and eventually armed struggle broke out. In July of the first year of the Second Qin Dynasty (209 BC), the pawns sent to Yuyang in the north were delayed by heavy rain. According to the revised law of the second king, missing the date is a capital offense. Cornered, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang led the pawns, and resolutely raised the banner of anti-Qin. It didn't take long for uprisings to break out everywhere. The old princes of the Six Kingdoms also restored their national titles, each claiming the title of king, and one after another turned against Qin. And Qin II still only knew pleasure at this time, thinking that it was just a few thieves, and did not pay attention to it at all. The officials below are afraid of losing their heads, and no one dares to tell the truth.

The careerist Zhao Gao helped Hu Hai to take the throne, and naturally wanted to control Hu Hai so that he could take power. Hu Hai did so many bad things, all related to Zhao Gao's instigation. He also coaxed Hu Hai, saying that the emperor should enjoy it, and let others do everything he worries. Hu Hai also really believed in him, and even entrusted all the state affairs to him, and stayed in the deep palace to enjoy himself. In this way, Zhao Gao became the de facto dictator.

In the third year of Hu Hai's reign as emperor, Zhao Gao was not satisfied with being the emperor behind the scenes, he wanted to kick Hu Hai away and become the emperor himself. In order to understand the attitude of the ministers towards him, he directed a farce in which the deer was the horse. He gave a deer to Hu Hai, but said it was a horse. Hu Hai retorted, and many ministers feared Zhao Gao and said it was a horse. Afterwards, Zhao Gao killed a few ministers who said they were deer, and no one in the dynasty dared to oppose him. Funny, Hu Hai thought he had a delusion disease and asked Taibu to make a calculation. Tai Bu said that it was caused by his poor fasting during the sacrifice, and Zhao Gao also tricked him into hiding from the disaster, so he hid in the palace.

Just when Hu Hai was living in confusion, the situation of the Qin Dynasty became more and more serious. The anti-Qin armies in various places were victorious one after another. Chen Sheng's army approached Xianyang, and Xiang Yu's Chu army broke through the cauldron and sank the boat and came to the decisive battle. The Qin army was unable to resist, and some soldiers even surrendered to the enemy. Hu Hai panicked at this time and began to blame Zhao Gao, and Zhao Gao simply took the opportunity to usurp the throne. Zhao Gao's son-in-law Yan Le led people straight into Huhai's palace, forcing Huhai to draw his sword and kill himself. Hu Hai eventually died at the hands of his favorite traitor, Zhao Gao.

Hu Hai was only 24 years old when he died, and he was emperor for only three years, and was buried in Yichunyuan in Dunan (now southwest of Xi'an) as a Qian head (that is, the people, because the Qin Dynasty advocated wearing black). There are no temple numbers and nicknames. He hardly did a decent thing in his life, and the Qin dynasty eventually died at his hands.
