Qi Xianggong fu the ninth revenge
During the Spring and Autumn Period, the princes of various countries established themselves as kings, and gradually did not pay attention to the Zhou royal family, and the Zhou royal family existed in name only. At that time, the monarch of the State of Qi, Qi Xianggong, did some things that were contrary to common sense because of the strong strength of the State of Qi, the most famous of which was the story of the revenge of the Ninth Emperor of Qi Xianggong.
The story of the revenge of Qi Xianggong Fu IX comes from the "Biography of the Ram", which tells that the monarch of the State of Ji in the Spring and Autumn Period saw that the monarch of the State of Qi was very disrespectful to Zhou Tianzi, so he thought it was an opportunity, so he said to King Yi of Zhou: "The King of the State of Qi, Duke Qi Ai, has always been very disrespectful to you, and now you should kill him and let the other princes who disrespect you see, this is the end of disrespecting you." King Zhou Yi felt that it was very reasonable after hearing this, so he killed the Duke of Qi.
According to some historical records, the Duke of Qi was cooked and killed by king Yi of Zhou, and this method of death was very cruel, and the history called "The Duke of Qi cooked Zhou". King Yi of Zhou originally wanted to use this incident to achieve the effect of shocking the princes, but he never expected it to be counterproductive, and the princes of various countries were afraid that they would also end up in the fate of the Duke of Qi in the future, and the anti-Zhou sentiment was getting stronger and stronger.
From the beginning of the Duke of Qi' Lai, it was already the ninth emperor when he passed the throne to the Lü Zhu'er Qi XiangGong, and qi XiangGong believed that it was precisely because the monarch of the State of Ji made a rumor to Zhou Tianzi that led to the death of the Duke of Qi Ai. Therefore, Qi Xianggong sent troops to besiege Ji Guo and avenge Qi Aigong. At that time, some people had different views on the ninth feud of Qi Xianggong, according to the customs of the Spring and Autumn Period, the general hatred of the country would not exceed the fifth, and from the Duke of Qi to the Duke of Qi Xiang was already the ninth, which was a bit inconsistent with the customs of the time. Of course, this may also be an excuse for Qi Xianggong to attack Ji Guo. In the Han Dynasty, The Han Wu emperor Liu Che sent troops to the Xiongnu on the grounds of "the vengeance of the Ninth Emperor of Qi Xianggong" to solve the border problem.
Qi Xianggong's Bow
Duke Xiang of Qi was the fourteenth monarch of the State of Qi during the Spring and Autumn Period, and he was faint and incompetent, and he was cruel by nature. Fundamentally, Duke Xiang of Qi was not a qualified monarch, and Duke Xiang of Qi succeeded to the throne in 698 BC, the thirty-third year of the Duke of Qi, reigning for ten years. Although Qi Xianggong did not make important achievements, he still improved the economic development level of the State of Qi to a certain extent.
So, how did Qi Xianggong die? According to historical records, the death of Duke Xiang of Qi was related to the ignorance of the chancellor of the State of Qi, Guan Zhi's father, and Gongsun's ignorance. In the eleventh year of the Duke of Qi Xiang, the Duke of Qi Xiang sent the ministers Lian Zhi and Guan Zhi's father to go to the town of Kuiqiu, agreeing to wait until the melons were ripe next year to let them come back and send others to guard the town again. Lian Zhi and Guan Zhi's father agreed to Qi Xianggong's request, and the two left to go to Kuiqiu Town to guard. Time passed in a hurry, and it was already time for the two to change people with Qi Xiang, but Qi Xianggong did not send someone to replace the two of them. Therefore, Lian Zhi and Guan Zhi's father wrote to Qi Xianggong to remind him that the time to change his defenses had arrived, but he did not expect that Qi Xianggong would not agree to change his defenses.
When the two saw this scene, they felt very angry and felt that they had been deeply deceived by Qi Xianggong, so they planned a rebellion. Lian Said and Guan Zhi's father found Gongsun Ignorance, and the three of them hit it off. Gongsun Ignorance was the nephew of Duke Qi, very much loved by Duke Qi, and in the period of Duke Qi, he was comparable to the existence of prince Qi Xianggong. However, after the death of Duke Qi, Duke Xiang of Qi, who became the new monarch, targeted Gongsun Ignorance at every turn, and Gongsun Ignorance had long wanted to replace Duke Qi Xiang. After some planning, the three of them first sent their unpopular sister to inquire about the news, and then the three led their troops into the palace. Several people should cooperate with each other inside and outside, and the plan of rebellion has gone exceptionally smoothly. Gongsun ignorantly broke into Qi Xianggong's bedchamber, found Qi Xianggong hiding behind the door, and killed him in one fell swoop.
The above is the story of Qi Xianggong being killed by lian, Guan Zhi's father, and Gongsun's ignorance, which is the story of the so-called "Qi Xianggong's Execution".
