ShiLang's life track
In the course of the wars of Emperor Xiaozong of the Jin Dynasty, QuWo Huanshu, Quwo Zhuangbo and later the sons of the Gong clan played an important role, and by the time of the Duke of Jinwu, these sons were even more in the decisive battle to attack Yicheng, and were the greatest heroes of the Duke of Jin. However, in the hearts of the Duke of Jinwu, most of these sons were full of worries, and the Duke of Jinwu could replace them with the Yicheng Emperor, and once these clan heroes gained power, they could naturally take the jinwu gong family and replace them, so in the education of concubine Ji Weizhu, this kind of jealousy of the clan heroes may also be filled. Later, after Ji Weizhu became the monarch of the Jin Dynasty, he was even more deeply troubled, and the "Zuo Biography" said: "The clans of Jin Huan and Zhuang forced them to sacrifice the public to suffer." ”
And it was through this that the Jin dynasty courtiers we are talking about entered the court. Shi Pu (士蒍), courtesy name Qi Pu (祁蒍), was also a well-known aristocratic son of the Jin Dynasty. Speaking of this Shilang, the history of his family is also very far-reaching, dating back to the ancient times is an important force around Yao Shun, tao tang clan, to the Xia Dynasty is also for the Xia King to keep the dragon in captivity, this family has gone through dynastic changes, although it is ups and downs, but it seems that its living environment has always been in the land of Zhou and Tang. Later, Du Bo was killed for offending King Xuan of Zhou for his advice, and Du Bo's son Uncle Kui took refuge in the Jin Dynasty as a scholar. "If there is a chariot in the front, it will carry a flying hung; if there is a soldier in the front, it will carry a tiger skin", the soldier is the official in charge of the punishment ban, that is, the law enforcement officer in the army.
Shi Pu is the descendant of Uncle Kui, which means that at the beginning of the Spring and Autumn Period, although the Shi Pu clan was not as prosperous as it was then, it was also considered a Wang clan in the land of the Jin Dynasty. At that time, many famous nobles in the era had a tradition, that is, when they were given official positions, they would take official positions as surnames, such as Sima ( 司馬 , Sicheng , and Si Kou , all of whom took official titles as surnames. After Uncle Kui served as a scholar, this clan was also called a scholar from then on. Moreover, the State of Jin also seems to have set a hereditary habit for the official position of the scholar, uncle Kui served as a scholar, and later Shi Pu also served as a scholar, and Shi Pu, who had a family origin, was always a master of the criminal law of the Jin State, so in the era of the Jin Dynasty after the Duke of Jin, Shi Pu was always the authority of the criminal law of the Jin State.
Shi Pu was not only satisfied with such an official position as a scholar, for the Jin Xiangong's concern for the clan princes, Shi Pu also planned for a long time, so he put forward a far-sighted strategy: "If you go to the rich son, then the group of princes can also plot", Shi Pu adopted a strategy of provoking dissension among the princes, resulting in internal internecine killing between the princes, and then when the time was ripe, the princes were moved to the land of Juyi, which was not simple. Originally, it was a rich place in this period, where the princes were famous and dogs and horses, and their ambitions were worn out in two or three years, and the Jin Dynasty was surrounded and annihilated, while Juyi became the capital of the Jin Dynasty and renamed Daidi. The blood of the princes became a testimony to the new capital.
After this battle, Shi Huang was more valued by the Jin Dynasty and promoted to Sikong, "in charge of water and soil affairs." Where the city of Camp rises, the ditches are ditched, the graves are repaired... Wherever the suburbs are worshipped, the palm sweeps away the musical instruments... Where the state has great doubts and disputes, it is the same as the Taiwei", and the two cities and pools of Pudi and Qudi, which were important cities in the Jin Dynasty, were built by Shi Pu, and Pudi and Qudi happened to be the residences of the two great dukes of Jin Xiangong and Yiwu, which shows that Shi Pu had extended his political power to the entire territory of the Jin Gong clan.
Shi Lang had a preference for Shen Sheng, and when Shen Sheng returned from a victorious conquest, Shi Cang said that "the eldest son shall not be established, and the capital city shall be divided into qing, and the first will be the pole, and then he will be established." It is better to flee, not to make sin to "predict the disaster of Shen Sheng," "December 2 Shen, Shen Sheng committed suicide in the new city", but it was prescient. Later, Shi Xiang also said: "Fox Qiu Qiu, one country and three dukes, I am suitable for obedience", that is, he was very dissatisfied with the battle for the princes of the three princes of Shensheng, Zhong'er, and Yiwu, and unlike Xun Xi's foolish loyalty to The Jin Dynasty, Shi Pu did not have a clear line for the three princes because of this idea, so even if Yi Wu and Zhong Er were successively kings, they were also quite in awe of the old fox of Shi Xiang.
