Duke Wei Huan should be dignified, but he has no far-sightedness, he has two brothers, one is the absurd and lustful Gongzi Jin, and the other is the violent and good martial State. In the TV series "Spring and Autumn of the Eastern Zhou Kingdoms", Wei Huangong's appearance is somewhat short.

Duke Huan huan thought that he was the monarch of the Wei state, he could control everything in the country, in fact, there were two bombs hidden around him, that is, his two younger brothers, the second brother Gongzi Jin was nothing, the third brother Gongzi Zhou was different, he was violent and martial, and he was also foolish to the position of the monarch.

For this kind of hidden danger around him, Wei Huangong turned a blind eye, and even when the chancellor Shi Jie reminded him to beware of the state call, he still thought that no one would endanger his position as monarch. Not only that, when he temporarily left weiguo to meet Zhou Tianzi, he actually handed over the power of regency to Zhou Wu, who had been coveting the throne, and finally at the parting banquet, he drank a cup of poisoned wine given to him by his brother Zhou Wu and died in the west.

Judging from the death of Wei Huangong, the idiom "When the break is continuous, it is chaotic" can best explain the reason. At the beginning, the chancellor Shi Jie warned Duke Wei Huan that in order to stabilize the throne, it was necessary to get rid of Zhou Hu, but Duke Wei Huan hesitated and hesitated, and finally did not listen to the minister's advice.
