author:A long history story

"I don't kill Bo Ren, but Bo Ren died because of me" This sentence must have been heard by everyone, and most of them are used to express their remorse and regret. So who is "Bo Ren"? Who is "I"?

To the point, the original sentence of the sentence "I did not kill Bo Ren, but Bo Ren died because of me" is "Although I did not kill Bo Ren, Bo Ren died by me." "I" was a famous figure in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Wang Dao, while "Bo Ren" was the famous minister Zhou Yan (homophonous with the word "chair") in the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

"I don't kill Boren, but Boren dies because of me" - "Who am I"? Who is Bo Ren?

"I" is Wang Dao, and "Bo Ren" is Zhou Yan

In 322, a vigorous internal rebellion broke out within the Eastern Jin Dynasty. In the name of "Qing Jun's side", King Dun of Jingzhou raised an army from Wuchang and went down the river to attack the Jin Yuan Emperor, who was the capital of Nanjing. This rebellious Wang Dun was not simple, he was not only a high-ranking and powerful feudal official, but also from the famous Langya Wang clan, and at the same time he was also the cousin of Wang Dao, who was then the Eastern Jin Dynasty Minister.

Because The army of Jingzhou Mu Wang Dun forced the palace, there was no prior notice to Wang Dao, who was far away in Nanjing, so when Wang Dao heard that his cousin Wang Dun had rebelled, he was immediately shocked, afraid that emperor Jinyuan would slaughter the Wang family in anger. In order to win the forgiveness of Emperor Jinyuan and to show that he was unaware of Wang Dun's rebellion, Wang Dao immediately took all the sons of the Wang clan to kneel outside the palace to plead with Emperor Jinyuan.

"I don't kill Boren, but Boren dies because of me" - "Who am I"? Who is Bo Ren?

King Dun of Jingzhou rebelled, and Wang Dao and more than a hundred members of the Wang family were in Nanjing

The Eastern Jin Dynasty has always been "the king and the horse, the world." "The Wang family is powerful enough to compete with the imperial Sima clan. Emperor Jinyuan did not dare to dispose of the Wang family casually, and in a hurry, he had to quickly summon other clans to discuss how to deal with the sons of the Wang clan in Nanjing, at this time, Zhou Yan, who was also from a famous and prestigious family, was summoned to the palace by Emperor Jinyuan.

On the way to the palace, Zhou Yan met Wang Dao, who was kneeling outside the palace, and Wang Dao knew that Zhou Yan's entry into the palace at this time must be the Jinyuan Emperor who wanted to consult his opinion on the handling of the Wang family, so Wang Dao took advantage of the opportunity of Zhou Yan passing by him and whispered: "Bo Ren (Zhou Yan, zi Bo Ren), more than a hundred lives of my Wang family depend on you!" However, Zhou Yan's performance was unexpected by Wang Dao, and Zhou Yan walked into the palace with his head held high as if he hadn't heard.

"I don't kill Boren, but Boren dies because of me" - "Who am I"? Who is Bo Ren?

Wang Dao asked Zhou Yan to intercede with Emperor Yuan of Jin, but Zhou Yan did not reply!

Although Zhou Yan did not respond to Wang Dao's request, after seeing Emperor Jinyuan, he tried his best to explain that Wang Dao was a loyal courtier, and this Wang Dun rebellion should have nothing to do with the Wang family, hoping that the emperor would see what was going on and not implicate the Wang family. Emperor Yuan of Jin listened to Zhou Yan's advice and left Zhou Yan to feast and drink together. Zhou Yan was an alcoholic, and every time he drank, he was bound to get drunk, and this time was no exception, he had been drunk in the palace before he came out.

When Zhou Yan left the palace drunk, Wang Dao was still kneeling at the palace gate, and when he saw Zhou Yan come out, he hurriedly wanted to stop Zhou Yan and ask about the situation. However, Zhou Yan walked away straight away, not paying any attention to Wang Dao at all, and muttered as he walked: "This year, we must kill some chaotic thieves!" Wang Dao's face darkened when he heard it, and he thought that Zhou Yan must have taken the opportunity to advise the emperor to get rid of the Wang family, so he was very resentful of Zhou Yan in his heart.

"I don't kill Boren, but Boren dies because of me" - "Who am I"? Who is Bo Ren?

Wang Dao misunderstood Zhou Yan and hated him in his heart!

Here Zhou Yan went out of the palace to go home, and after he woke up drunk, he was afraid that Emperor Jinyuan would kill again, and he wrote a song for Wang Dao and the Wang family to intercede overnight, and the love between the words was sincere. However, Wang Dao did not know this, and he still resented Zhou Yan very much in his heart.

The conversation was divided into two ends, on this side Wang Dao was worried that the Jin Yuan Emperor would slaughter the Wang family because of wang Dun's rebellion, but Wang Dun won consecutive battles and drove all the way in, conquering the last stronghold of Nanjing, Stone City (Stone City, which is now the area around Qingliangshan in Nanjing, is the last barrier of Nanjing). Emperor Yuan of Jin, in the face of a military defeat, had no choice but to try his best to appease Wang Dun, not only declaring Wang Dun of the "Qing Emperor's side" innocent, but also appointing Wang Dun as a chancellor, sealing the Duke of Wuchang County, and entrusting the government to Wang Dun completely, and he himself was completely emptied.

Wang Dun, who had achieved military victory, controlled the government and unscrupulously issued orders to exclude dissidents. However, Wang Dun had been the local governor for a long time and did not know much about the situation of officials in Nanjing. Therefore, Wang Dun repeatedly asked Wang Dao which officials had a bad relationship with the Wang family, and as long as Wang Dao said it, he would take the opportunity to eradicate it, and as long as Wang Dao opened his mouth to intercede, he would let it go.

"I don't kill Boren, but Boren dies because of me" - "Who am I"? Who is Bo Ren?

Wang Dun, who controlled the government of the dynasty, attached great importance to Wang Dao's opinion!

One day, Wang Dun asked, "Zhou Yan and Dai Ruosi are two great talents, so they should be able to be such great officials as the Three Dukes (Sikong, Sima and Situ), right?" Wang Dao was still angry with Zhou Yan in his heart, so he deliberately did not speak. Wang Dun asked again, "If they are not worthy to be the Three Dukes, then they should be able to do Shangshu Ling and Shang Shu Servants, right?" Wang Dao still did not answer. Wang Dun finally said, "If they are not worthy of being officials, then simply kill them!" Wang Dao was still silent. In this way, Zhou Yan was ordered to be killed by Wang Dun!

After Zhou Yan was killed, Wang Daocai discovered in Zhongshu Province that Zhou Yan was trying to defend the Wang family. Only then did Wang Dao understand that Zhou Yan had been defending the Wang family, just to avoid suspicion and not express it in front of him. At this moment, Wang Dao thought that it was because of his silence that Zhou Yan was killed, and a strong sense of guilt surged into his heart, and he returned home and said to his family: "Although I did not directly kill Bo Ren, Bo Ren died because of my inaction. I'm sorry for this friend! ”

"I don't kill Boren, but Boren dies because of me" - "Who am I"? Who is Bo Ren?

After Zhou Yan was killed, Wang Dao discovered that he had defended the Wang family, and Wang Dao regretted it!
