Somewhere there are people,
There are rivers and lakes,
Where there are rivers and lakes,
There is the big brother who leads.
If, you can't be the first big brother,
Then follow the most powerful big brother,
Listen to Little Nine,
That's right.
01
Wearing the wrong hat
In the eighteenth year of Wei Xiangong (559 BC), there was a shocking civil unrest in weiguo, and the reason for the outbreak of civil unrest was quite troubled.
In the summer of that year, the twenty-fifth emperor of the Wei state, Wei Xiangong, asked Sun Linfu and Ning Zhuo, the two powerful ministers of the Wei state, to go to the palace for a banquet.
The monarch kindly told you to go to the feast, and this face had to be given.
Sun Lin's father and Ning Huo put on their imperial clothes and went on time.
But they waited at the palace gate from morning to dusk, their stomachs were hungry, and they didn't see Wei Xiangong summoned them.
What's the situation? The meal time has long passed, how there is no movement.
As soon as the two of them inquired, they learned that it was Wei Xiangong who was playing with birds in the garden and forgot about the dinner he had made with the two of them.
When the two people heard this, they were angry and didn't fight together, and this didn't make a fuss?
Therefore, the two endured hunger to find Wei Xiangong.
As soon as the two of them came, Wei Xiangong couldn't say anything if he didn't see him.
See you then.
At this sight, Sun Lin's father and Ning Zhuo were even more angry.
Because Wei Xiangong was wearing hunting clothes and wearing a hunting hat to chat with them.
Looking at his meaning, it seems that there is no such thing as inviting guests to dinner at all.
If you don't eat it, don't eat it, the two haven't eaten anything, not worse than this meal.
What made the two people most indignant was that Wei Xiangong wore the wrong hat.
During the Spring and Autumn Period, although the etiquette collapsed and was broken, there was still a need for etiquette.
At that meeting, the monarch and the courtiers talked, either in formal clothes or in their hats.
Wei Xiangong's nonsense in this hunting hat is extremely rude and he is very contemptuous of people.
Sun Lin's father and Ning Zhuo were on fire when they boarded, what do you mean? Is there such a thing as burying people?
To be honest, Wei Xiangong was also too heartless and lungless, first of all, he let Sun Lin's father and Ning Huo be hungry first, and then talked about insulting people with a hat, which looked more like he deliberately teased Sun Lin's father and Ning Huo.
But he seemed to have forgotten that Sun Lin's father and Ning Zhuo were the most unworthy people he could afford, and the two were the pawns of the two great giants of the Wei Dynasty!

Defending the country
The Sun clan of Wei Guo and the Ning clan were both after the Duke of Wei Wu.
Duke Wu of Wei was the eleventh monarch of the Wei Dynasty and one of the most capable monarchs in history.
The old man reigned for fifty-five years and lived for ninety-five years, which can be called the first longevity monarch of the Spring and Autumn Period.
After the fall of Western Zhou, Duke Wu of Wei, together with Duke Wu of Zheng, Marquis Wen of Jin, and Duke Xiang of Qin, sent troops to serve the king and escort king Ping of Zhou to move east.
As a result, Duke Wu of Wei was promoted to duke by King Ping of Zhou, and Wei Guo was the leading elder brother of the Eastern princes during the reign of Duke Wei Wu.
After the death of Duke Wu of Wei, Crown Prince Yang succeeded to the throne as Duke Zhuang of Wei.
Duke WeiWu had a younger son named Ji Qi, and Duke Wei Wu gave Ning Yi to his younger son, after which Ji Wu's descendants were called Ning.
The Ning clan was the secretary of state in the ninth weiguo, and his position was extremely prominent.
During the reign of Ji Qi's fourth emperor Sun Ningsu (谥号庄, also known as Ning Zhuangzi), when Duke Wei Yi was killed by the Di people and the State of Wei was tragically destroyed, Ning Suo established the Duke of Wei Dai, and later with the help of Duke Huan of Qi, he established the Duke of Wei Wen, barely supporting the situation, and finally defending the country.
The Ning clan shined in the Spring and Autumn Period by Ning Su's son Ning Yu (谥号武, also known as Ning Wuzi).
At that time, the wei state monarch was Wei Chenggong, on the eve of the Battle of Chengpu, Wei Chenggong fled to Chu and Chen, Wei Guo established a new monarch, after the Battle of Chengpu, Wei Chenggong was almost killed by Jin Wengong, that is, Wei Chenggong saved by Ning Yu, Wei Chenggong was able to restore the throne, Ning Yu was also indispensable, and ning Yu became the first powerful minister of Wei.
And this Ning Hu (谥号惠, also known as Ning Huizi) is Ning Yu's grandson.
After The Death of Duke Wei Ding, it was Ning Zhuo and Kong Yan who supported Wei Xiangong.
Therefore, Ning Zhuo was also a political tycoon during the Wei Xiangong period.
However, at this time, weiguo was not wei, but Sun Lin's father.
Sun Lin's father was from the Sun clan of the Wei kingdom, and the ancestor of the Sun clan was another son of Duke Wu of Wei, Gongzi Huisun.
Because there is a Sun character in the name, future generations of descendants take Sun as the surname, and Gongzi Huisun is the ancestor of Sun's surname.
Gongzi Huisun's son was named Gongsun Er, also known as Gongsun Er.
Gongsun Er once served as the Shangqing of the WeiGuo, that is, the first leader of the Wei State, and the seal was in Qiyi, so it was also called the Qi family, and Gongsun Er was the ancestor of the current Qi surname.
Gongsun Er's son was named Sun Yi (武仲乙), and the grandson was called Sun Yan (谥号昭, also known as Sun Zhaozi).
In the second year of the Duke of Jin (626 BC, the ninth year of the Duke of Weicheng), because the State of Wei attacked the State of Zheng, the Duke of Xiang of Jin, in order to give the State of Zheng a head, sent Xianheju and Xu Chen to attack the State of Wei, and in one fell swoop conquered the fief of the Sun clan of the State of Wei, And Sun Yan was captured.
However, the Sun clan was also blessed by this misfortune and established friendly relations with the Jin state, because Qiyi was at the junction of Jin and Wei, close to the Jin state, and the Jin state held meetings and alliances in Qiyi many times.
Relationship chart between the Weiguo monarch and the Sun and Ning clans
Sun Yan's son was called Sun Yi (谥号庄, also known as Sun Zhuangzi), and Sun Yi gave birth to sun loach (谥号宣, also known as Sun Xuanzi), and at this time, Sun Shi was no more than a doctor, and he was far less powerful than the Ning clan.
It was not until the hands of Sun Loach's son Sun Liangfu (谥号桓, also known as Sun Huanzi) that the Sun clan began to emerge and became a well-known family in the Wei Dynasty.
Sun Liangfu had sent an envoy to the State of Qi with the Jin state of Qi, but was ridiculed by the Duke of Qi.
Soon the Jin state under the leadership of Hao Ke broke out a great war between the Jin state and the state of Qi, Sun Liangfu was the vanguard of the Jin state to attack Qi, the relationship between the Sun clan and the Jin state became increasingly close, and the Sun clan became the representative force of the pro-Jin faction of the Wei state, which can be called the representative of the jin state in the interests of the Wei state, so with the support of the Jin state, Sun Liangfu held the power of the wei state.
After Sun Liangfu's death, he was succeeded by his grandson Lin Fu (谥号文, also known as Sun Wenzi).

Fox fake tiger will
Sun Lin's father was an imperious and aggressive man, so at that time, Wei Dinggong, the king of the Wei state, did not like him very much, and even wanted to kill Sun Lin's father.
Sun Lin's father was tyrannical and his mind was also very sharp, he sensed wei Dinggong's hostility towards him, and without waiting for Wei Dinggong to attack, he immediately ran away and fled to the Jin state to seek support.
Since the Sun clan is the largest pro-Jin faction in the Wei state, once the Sun clan loses power, the anti-Jin faction of the Wei state may gain power, even if the wei state ruling family is still close to the Jin state, but their loyalty and influence are difficult to surpass the Sun clan, the Jin state wants to think that it is more appropriate to let the Sun clan rule in the Wei state.
And Sun Lin's father was also very good at socializing, and he was also quite well-connected among the secretaries of the Jin state, and had a very good relationship with the Jin state, and it was Hao Li who was in charge of the diplomacy of the eastern princes of the Jin state at that time, and with the help of Hao Li, the Jin Li Gong put pressure on Wei Guo to take back Sun Lin's father.
In the spring of the twelfth year of the reign of Duke Wei Ding (577 BC, the fourth year of the Duke of Jin), Duke Wei Ding went to the State of Jin to meet the elder Duke Li of Jin, and duke Li of Jin asked Duke Wei Ding to receive Sun Lin's father, who had fled to the State of Jin, in fact, he wanted Sun Lin's father to return to China.
Wei Dinggong didn't agree at that time, don't make trouble, I had a hard time driving away this bastard, and now I'm taking him back, doesn't this add to my own blockage?
He strongly disagrees!
Jin Ligong is very angry, toast not to eat and eat penalty wine, since it is useless to tell you well, then only Qiang is coming.
In the summer of that year, Duke Wei Ding returned to China, and Duke Li of Jin directly sent an envoy to Wei Guo, in fact, to send Sun Lin's father back to China.
Wei Ding Gongtou Iron, until this time did not agree.
At this time, Wei Dinggong's wife Ding Jiang hurried out to persuade Wei Dinggong to beat the dog and look at the master, Sun Lin's father is not terrible, the terrible thing is jinguo, can you afford to provoke jinguo? Since the Jin Dynasty is going to die to protect Father Lin, if you don't agree any more, you will perish the country.
Wei Dinggong thought, Yes, Madame was right.
Therefore, with the strong support of the Jin state, Wei Dinggong had to restore Sun Lin's father's official position.
In October of the same year, shortly after Sun Lin's father returned, Wei Dinggong died of illness, and he did not know whether he was killed by Sun Lin's father by anger or by nausea.
After the death of Duke Wei Ding, his son-in-law Gong (衎衎) succeeded him as Duke Wei Xian.

Jinguo dog legs
Wei Xiangong, this brother, is a lord with no heart and no lungs.
As soon as Wei Dinggong died, he didn't see any sadness from these brothers.
Please, that's your father, no matter how happy you are, you have to do superficial work.
In this way, Father Sun Lin, who had just returned to WeiGuo, was wary of Wei Xiangong.
No way, Wei Xiangong was so virtuous to his own father, but what about others?
Therefore, Sun Lin's father grasped his old stronghold Qi Yi and developed his strength, at the same time, strengthened friendly exchanges with the Jin state, uh, to be precise, hugged the thigh of the Jin state, just in case of accidents.
In order to hug Jin Guo's thighs, Sun Lin's father pursued one insistence and two whatevers when he was in power.
That is to say, we must uphold the leadership of the Jin state; we must spare no effort to accomplish whatever the Jin state wants to do to defend the country; and we must obey all the orders of the Jin state.
Therefore, during his reign, Wei Guo was definitely the first vanguard of the Jin dynasty's struggle for hegemony, the number one horse boy, and he was more dedicated than the Song State Lu Guodu.
It is precisely because Sun Lin's father's ideological consciousness is so high that the Jin State supports him very strongly.
With the support of the Jin State, Sun Lin's father's position in the Weiguo became more and more stable, and in the Weiguo, it can be said that he only covered the sky with one hand, and his behavior became more arrogant.
In the eleventh year of Duke Wei Xian (566 BC, the seventh year of Duke Xiang of Lu), Sun Lin's father sent an envoy to the state of Lu, and when Lu Xianggong ascended the steps, Sun Lin's father also climbed alongside him.
This is undoubtedly extremely disrespectful, Lu Xianggong is a king, and no matter how powerful your Sun Lin father is, he is also a subject, how can he stand shoulder to shoulder with Lu Xianggong?
At that time, Uncle Sun Bao was just following behind, and after he saw Sun Lin's father's rude behavior, he could not sit idly by and insult the dignity of lu guo.
So he quickly stepped forward and said to Sun Lin's father: When the princes met, the widow never let the Weiguo monarch walk behind. Now you are not walking behind the widow, who does not know what is wrong with him. Stop for a moment!
As a result, Sun Lin's father was not moved.
Uncle Sun Leopard sighed at that time: Sun Lin's father will not be able to die well.
Sun Lin's father sent an envoy to Lu Guo to have such an attitude towards Lu Xianggong, and the attitude towards Wei Xianggong in Wei Guo can be imagined.
Therefore, the relationship between Wei Xiangong and him was absolutely not harmonious, and the contradiction between the monarch and the courtiers was very deep.
05
Monarch centrifugal
A hot ruler, a monarch with no heart and no lungs, it is not difficult to predict what will happen next.
Both of them would do something about it, not to mention that Wei Xiangong had insulted Sun Lin's father at this time.
During the Spring and Autumn Period when the emperor was killing a dog, Wei Xiangong insulted Sun Lin's father and Ning Zhuo at the same time to die.
Sun Lin's father and Ning Zhuo, who were insulted by this, did not have a reason not to nest fire, especially Sun Lin's father, in Weiguo, he had always had only his arrogant share, when would it be his turn to be popular with others? Even if this man is a defending monarch, he can't do it.
Therefore, after seeing Duke Wei Xian, Sun Lin's father left the capital Diqiu directly in a fit of anger and returned to his fief qiyi, no longer going to the dynasty. When necessary, he only sent his son Sun Kuo to join the dynasty on his behalf.
This is actually already a dangerous signal, indicating that the Wei monarch has lost peace, and Sun Lin's father no longer dumps Wei Xiangong.
Perhaps Wei Xiangong realized this.
Once, after Sun Pu entered the dynasty, Wei Xiangong specially invited Sun Pu to dinner, warmly entertained Sun Kuo, and deliberately eased his relationship with Sun Lin's father, in order to show solemnity, he also specially called a court band to play for the two of them.
As a result, this banquet directly triggered the civil unrest in Wei, and the matter was in the court band called by Wei Xiangong.
Sun Pu was eating a meal, when suddenly the band sang the last chapter of "Qiaoyan", which is from the poem Xiao ya, which is a political satire poem.
The last chapter is sung like this,
"Who is he?" Elk in the river. No fist, no courage, the position is chaotic. Small and widowed, eryong Yi he? For Judas, erju disciple geometry? ”
The gist of the chapter is, who is that? Living on the banks of the river, there is no force and courage, only to create opportunities for disasters. Sores on your legs and puffiness, where is your courage? There are always so many tricks, how many other accomplices do you have?
This finally means that the adulterous villain must not die well in the end, and the clever words are originally straight to the chest and sharp, which is recited by the band, which is even more emotionally indignant and bloody.
Sun Pu was anxious as soon as he heard it, what do you mean by that? Who is the traitor you are going to kill?
Isn't it my father, Sun Lin' father?
This must have been arranged by you, and since you think my dad is a traitor and want to get rid of him, I'll talk to you about a fart.
Sun Pu ran directly back to Qi Yi in one breath.
06
This is a misunderstanding
However, Sun Puzhen misunderstood Wei Xiangong, and this matter was really not arranged by Wei Xiangong.
Originally, the monarch invited the ministers to feast, what songs to sing, how to sing, should be the chief musician of the court to arrange, and personally direct the lead singer.
As a result, the chief musician did not know what was going on on this day and took a leave of absence.
So the deputy musician took the initiative to ask Miao to sing, and Wei Xiangong approved it, and as a result, the matter was on this vice musician.
This deputy musician was called Shi Cao, who once served as a music teacher for a concubine of Wei Xiangong, teaching her to play the piano, but this concubine did not study seriously, so Shi Cao flogged her.
The concubines came to wei xian to announce the announcement, and Wei Xiangong listened to it, indiscriminately, and beat Shi Cao three hundred times.
Shi Cao held a grudge against this and had the intention of taking revenge on Wei Xiangong.
But he was just a small musician, not an assassin, and he couldn't take Wei Xiangong with his own strength alone.
How can you avenge yourself? You can only kill people with a knife.
He couldn't do anything with Wei Xiangong, Sun Lin's father did.
And this time undoubtedly gave him the opportunity, so he deliberately sang "Qiaoyan" to provoke the relationship between Wei Xiangong and Sun Lin's father.
Wei Xiangong even made enemies of the musicians around him, which shows how unpopular Wei Xiangong is in Weiguo.
To say that Wei Xiangong's brothers really had a big heart and no political mind, in the face of the trap set by Shi Cao, he did not feel that there was any problem, nor did he stop, let alone explain.
And this "Qiaoyan" poem became the fuse for Sun Lin's father and Wei Xiangong to turn against each other.
Wei Xiangong did not think of anything that this song would bring him.
07
The Great Rebellion of the Guardians
After Sun Pu returned to Qiyi, he immediately told Sun Lin's father about this.
Father Sun Lin listened to a long sigh, it seems that the monarch is treating me as a traitor, and he wants to eliminate me, first to be strong, and then to suffer.
Sun Lin's father decided to preemptively attack and gather all his forces to raise troops from Qi Yi and launch a rebellion to attack Wei Xiangong.
Over the years, Sun Lin's father had accumulated a lot of strength, and when Wei Dinggong wanted to kill him, he could only run; now he had been preparing for many years and had the confidence to win wei Xiangong.
Sure enough, Sun Lin's father went all the way into the Wei capital City Of Qiu.
Why did Sun Lin's father go so smoothly, he was committing a rebellion and attacking the monarch.
There was no way, Sun Lin's father was the biggest big man in the power of defending the country, and Ning Zhuo, who ranked second, also supported the attack on Wei Xiangong, and the two strong forces joined forces, and they were absolutely invincible.
Sun Lin's father rebelled, Wei Xiangong was blinded, I was not thin to him, how could he suddenly launch a rebellion?
The men are more blind, all this will be done, think this is still useful, now the rebels have killed into the city, or think about what to do.
What to do?
Cold!
This will make Sun Lin's father's victory determined, Wei Xiangong can not win the fight, can only seek peace, so Wei Xiangong sent three princes and Sun Lin's father to seek peace, ready to form an alliance at the Qiu Palace.
Sun Lin's father was not stupid, as a courtier, since he had launched a rebellion, he did not want to negotiate peace.
Rebellion is such a thing as opening a bow and arrow without turning back, either you die or I live.
Sun Lin's father categorically did not allow Wei Xiangong to stay in the throne of the state any longer, so he could not help but kill the three princes directly.
Wei Xiangong was dumbfounded, he could not make peace, he could not fight and fight, so he had to run away, and under the death of his relatives, Wei Xiangong rushed out of the siege and escaped from Diqiu.
On April 26 of that year, Wei Xiangong led the sons of the Gong clan to flee, and his younger brother Zi Zhan fled to the State of Qi, where he went to the State of Qi to take the lead in moving the rescue troops for Wei Xiangong, and Wei Xiangong himself fled to Juandi (鄄地, in present-day Juancheng County, Heze City, Shandong).
Wei Xiangong did not want to flee to other countries until this time, and still wanted to make peace.
So he sent his younger brother Zi xing to ask Sun Lin's father for peace, and zi xing was also unlucky, and this would be sent to death to ask for peace.
Sure enough, when the son came, Sun Lin's father directly killed him, and this time Sun Lin's father killed four sons in a row, and the firmness of his attitude was shocking.
No matter how stupid Wei Xiangong was, he also knew that Wei Guo could not stay any longer, and there was only one way to die if he stayed any longer.
As a result, Wei Xiangong had no choice but to flee to the State of Qi.
However, at this time, it was difficult for Wei Xiangong to run, Sun Lin's father did not do two without stopping, directly sent someone to hunt down and kill Wei Xiangong, Sun Lin's father had a meaning, he did not want to see the living Wei Xiangong!
In other words, Wei Xiangong's good luck, the two killers sent by Sun Lin's father, Yu Gongjun and Yin Gongtuo, happened to be the apprentices and disciples of Gongsun Ding, the emperor of Wei Xiangong.
Under the protection of Gongsun Ding, Wei Xiangong escaped the disaster and fled to the State of Qi.
After Wei Xiangong was expelled, Wei Guo temporarily lost its monarch, and the so-called country cannot be without a monarch for a day.
Sun Lin's father himself could not usurp the throne, so he supported Gongsun Shu (公孙剽), the younger brother of Duke Wei Ding's younger brother Gongzi Heibei , as a prince, as the Duke of Wei.
This round of collision and confrontation between the monarch and the powerful lords ended with the complete victory of Sun Lin's father.
However, their story is not over, Wei Xiangong's brothers have no heart and no lungs, but their luck is good, and twelve years later, he actually made a comeback and returned to China to successfully restore.
Of course, this is another story.
This story tells us how cool it is to have a good big brother covered.
The reason why Sun Lin's father was so capable was that he recognized Jin Guo as the boss.
Don't look down on the dog's legs, recognizing the boss is also a skill, you say right?
