"History" appreciation | In order to defend his dignity, Xia Zhengshu killed Chen Linggong

In "Chen Qi's Family", I think the biggest highlight is the incident of Xia Zhengshu killing Chen Linggong.

As the prince of a country, Chen Linggong did not govern the country and benefit the people of Li, but instead colluded with some treacherous ministers and caused chaos in the dynasty, and when these unscrupulous monarchs learned of the beauty of Xia Ji' wife, they actually did something dishonest with Xia Ji and Xia Ji. Their shameless deeds finally angered Xia Ji's son Xia Zhengshu, who was furious and resolutely killed the monarch Chen Linggong, the other two shameless ministers Kong Ning and Yixing's father fled to the Chu state, and Chen Linggong's crown prince Concubine Wu also fled to the Jin state.

The country could not be without a monarch for a day, so Xia Zhengshu established himself as the monarch of the State of Chen.

Xia Zhengshu's move was a feat, daring to challenge the monarch for his dignity and get rid of the monarch, which was rare in history.
