#历史故事 #
The King of Chu Gong was not yet a lustful person, and there was no historical record of how many palace beauties he had, nor did he see what was available for people to talk about after tea and dinner in the Chu Gong Palace during the Chu Gong King's period. But the King of Chu Gong certainly had many beautiful concubines, and there is a story about the wisdom of one of the concubines of the King of Chu Gong.
It is said that this concubine was called An Ling Tang, I don't know where the people were, anyway, she was one of the concubines of the King of Chu Gong, and because of her beautiful appearance and knowledge of the book, she was deeply favored by the King of Chu Gong. Throughout the ages, a concubine was favored by a hundred people, and An Ling Tang enjoyed the exclusive favor of the king, which naturally made other concubines hate An Ling Tang, especially the Chu Gong Wang's wife.
An Ling tangled but did not know it, she always thought that as long as she was loyal enough to the king and good enough. There was an internal servant named Jiang Yi who had once received help from Princess An Ling, and he wanted to repay An Ling. So once he said to An Ling:
"The villain has a few questions he wants to ask Yu Niangniang."
"Oh, please." An Ling tang said.
"Did Niangniang's ancestors make great contributions to the Chu State?" Jiang Yi asked.
"Not really." An Ling tangled up in the truth.
Jiang Yi continued to ask, "Lady Na, do you think you have made any outstanding contributions to the Great King or to the Chu Kingdom?" ”
An Ling frowned and said, "It seems that there is no contribution." But I thought: Isn't my contribution making the king happy because of me?
Jiang Yi continued to ask, "Then why did Niangniang think you got such a prominent position as you are now?" ”
When An Ling tangled up and heard the meaning, she said to Jiang Yi very modestly, "If you have something to say, just say it, the palace is willing to listen." ”
"Lady, the minister has heard that those who make friends with money will leave him once the money is exhausted. Pleasing people with their posture, once they are old and fading, the favor she receives will also leave her. Niangniang is now as beautiful as a flower, but the flowers are not red, and one day the flowers will wither, and your face will age. At that time, how can Niangniang ensure that the king will always spoil you?
Once she lost the favor of the great king, would Niangniang still be able to live in the position of eminence as she is now? Don't you need to make some preparations for the future days of your mother-in-law? For example, get a reward from the king to enjoy his old age and protect his people? ”
An Ling listened intently and was really shocked, and she respectfully gave Jiang Yi a salute and said, "Please teach me." ”
Jiang Yi said: "Although the idea of the villain is very unpleasant, it should work. If you have the opportunity, you will tell the king that you are willing to be buried for him after ten thousand years. ”
An Ling tang wrote down Jiang Yi's idea and thanked Jiang Yi. Later, when Jiang Yi saw An Ling Tang again, he learned that An Ling Tang had not yet told the King of Chu about this matter, and he was very anxious, you know, Because An Ling Tang was favored, there was a lot of opportunity to chat with the King of Chu Gong, after all, the two often traveled in the same car and slept in the same bed.
After another year like this, when Jiang Yi learned that An Lingtang still had not confessed to the King of Chu that he was willing to be buried for the Great King, he was very unhappy and could not help but sigh: Sure enough, it is better to carry a bag for the wise than to offer a plan to the fool.
But Jiang Yi thought wrongly, because An Lingtang was waiting for a suitable opportunity to say that sentence. And the opportunity finally came, on this day, the King of Chu Led people to Go Hunting in Yun Mengze, this time he took Aifei An Ling. Suddenly, a frightened rhinoceros rushed toward the King of Chu, and everyone exclaimed. The king of Chu Was not in a hurry, he calmly raised the ling flag, and used the flag to instruct the archers to release arrows at the rhinoceros, and the rhinoceros finally fell to the ground with a hundred arrows in his body.
At this time, the King of Chu Gong was very happy, his face was full of self-satisfaction, he turned his head to look at An Ling, who was frightened and discolored, and said, "Don't be alarmed by concubines, this is the joy of hunting." After ten thousand years, no one will give you the opportunity to enjoy such happiness. ”
An Ling listened, hugged the King of Chu gong in a hurry, and cried: "After ten thousand years of the great king, the concubines will surely follow the great king and go to sleep with the great king, so how can they enjoy any happiness with others?" ”
The King of Chu was very touched when he heard this, and he decided to reward An Ling Tang again, so he gave An Ling Tang three hundred households.
This is the cleverness of An Ling tang, Jiang Yi's idea is of course good, but the good idea should be used in good timing, if An Ling Tang directly told the Chu Gong King about the so-called martyrdom, then even if the Chu Gong King was not jealous of this burial word, it would also make the Chu Gong King feel that An Ling Tang was deliberately contrived, but it would have a negative effect.
So An Ling was waiting for an opportunity, and she waited for this time. Because of the fiefdom, after the collapse of the King of Chu, An Ling Tang not only did not need to be martyred, but could return to his own territory and stay away from the harem dispute, so that he could enjoy the grace of the King of Chu at the time and the wealth of the King of Chu after the collapse.
This story later used "Jiang Yi shan mou, An Fei zhi shi" to describe a good idea that it will be fully effective when it is used at a good time.
However, both Wenzhi and Wugong were covered up by his father, King Zhuang of Chu. Especially in martial arts, during the period of the Chu Communist King, the Chu State had to fight almost every year, but there is no historical record of how much territory the Chu Communist King opened up.
For the Chu state, to expand its territory, it is nothing more than annexing the Huaihe Zhuyi to the east, or to the south and then merging the southern barbarian tribes. However, during the reign of the Chu Communist King, the State of Chu was stubbornly entangled by the State of Jin, seizing the urgent psychology of the State of Chu to integrate into the Central Plains of China, and focused all its energy on the Central Plains to compete for hegemony, thus neglecting to run the southeast.
The result of ignoring the Eastern Front was that the State of Wu became bigger and stronger with the full support of the State of Jin, and became the most terrible enemy of the State of Chu in the future. The King of Chu actually saw the potential hidden dangers of the State of Wu, and he also sent Yin Xiong Infant Qi to conquer the State of Wu, but unfortunately due to the arrogance of Xiong Infant Qi, the soldiers were defeated and killed.
This greatly boosted Wu Guo's ambitions: it turned out that the Chu state was no more than that. The other Huaihe Dongyi tribes also became suspicious of the State of Chu because of this, and many of the original vassals had two hearts for the State of Chu, chose their thighs and embraced them, becoming vassals of the State of Wu, making the State of Wu quickly strong.
If the Jin state did not mourn the Duke of Jin, and the Jin state continued its internal brutal power struggle, perhaps the Chu state still had a chance. The regret of "both Shengyu and He Shengliang" may not have been issued by the King of Chu Gong, but it is just an emotion in our hearts when we read history. Because the later Duke of Jin was indeed the Ming Emperor of the Ages, too powerful, Wang Cheng of Chu was not his opponent.
The last courtesy name of the King of Chu Gong was "Gong", which was a very good nickname, and after his death, the Gong clan masters, especially Ling Yin Xiongzhen, finally did not follow the wishes of the King of Chu Gong, because all the Chu people believed that their Chu State really should not use "Ling" or "Li" as a nickname, and moreover, there was already a Chu Li King in the history of the Chu State.
The King of Chu Ling should be a King of Chu who is unaccustomed to everyone in the world, who has done all kinds of bad things, and who has ruined his reputation, and the King of Chu Ling will also appear on the Spring and Autumn Stage in the near future, when the Chu State is already under the sun.
"Gong" is "Gong", so history also refers to this King of Chu whose title is "Gong". In many historical materials, the description of the monarch of the Chu state, except for the king of Chu Zhuang because he achieved the hegemony of the Central Plains, the rest of the records are almost depreciated, and even the chu zhuang king Zhongyuan's victory is also the historical materials are basically written from the perspective of the Central Plains civilization.
Those of us who read history should discover something real from reading history. King Gong of Chu was a good king of Chu. At least, King Chu Gong was a bloody boy!
When the king of Chu collapsed, the Chu state of Jiangshan was handed over to his sons, and the eldest son Xiong Zhao succeeded to the throne, which was the king of Chu Kang. Of course, king Gong of Chu and four other sons, they appeared on the scene and continued the spring and autumn of the Chu kingdom.
