Zhou Tianzi boiled qi aigong, a descendant of the great hero Jiang Ziya, alive, why is this?
The Duke of Qi was boiled alive by king Yi of Zhou, he was a descendant of Jiang Ziya, why did Zhou Tianzi do this?
When you look at the title, you can't help but be surprised, Zhou Tianzi actually cooked Jiang Ziya's descendant Qi Waigong? In the Qishu "Bamboo Book Chronicle", it is said: (King Yi of Zhou) for three years, the king to the princes, cooking Qi Mourning Duke Yu Ding. It's true!
No matter what this Qi Aigong said, he was also a prince of princes, and he was also the king of a large princely state, so zhou tianzi said that it was boiled in front of other princes, and it seemed that Zhou Tianzi's prestige was still not small.
So, what's going on here? You know, Jiang Ziya was a great hero of the Zhou Dynasty, and his descendants should bathe Wang Ze.
Let's first see who the protagonists of this story are.
First of all, this Zhou Tianzi who cooked people, at this time, the Western Zhou Tianzi had been passed down to the ninth generation, and the ruler was Ji Xie, the king of Zhou Yi.
Speaking of this King of Zhou Yi, in fact, he was also a sad lord at the beginning, his father, king Zhou Yi, the seventh generation of Tianzi of Western Zhou, died, he should have been succeeded by him as the eldest son, but this guy was a bit timid and cowardly, and his uncle Ji Peifang saw that this nephew was a good bully, so he gathered a group of doctors who supported him, and carried out a palace coup d'état of brothers and brothers, and sat on the throne of tianzi that should have been done by his nephew, and Ji Peifang became the eighth generation of Tianzi of Western Zhou, for the King of Zhou.
Why did the doctors of the Zhou royal family support King Xiao of Zhou? Quite simply, his brother King Yi of Zhou did too badly, weakening a good Zhou Dynasty, and was bullied by the surrounding Xi Rong one after another, and even lost the pickaxe Kyoto. What about his eldest son? The personality is similar to him, but also a weak and deceitful lord, under the internal and external troubles, if there is another such character tianzi, then the Zhou Dynasty is not finished? Therefore, the succession of King Xiao of Zhou to the throne can also be regarded as conforming to the people's will.
As for this King Xiao of Zhou, although the position of the Son of Heaven came incorrectly, but the people did a good job, dumped his dead ghost brother Zhou Yi Wang Ten Streets.
Let's look at the record of the Bamboo Book Chronicle: "In the first year of the first year of the Xin Dynasty, the king took the throne and ordered the Marquis of Shen to vasien rong. Five years later, Xi Rong came to offer horses. "Look, that's the gap. One was beaten, one was beaten, and it was subdued.
Unfortunately, many of King Xiaowang's grand plans to revitalize the Zhou royal family had not yet been fully implemented and he died.
The "Chronicle of History" says this about this history: "King Yi collapsed, and the brother of the king of Gong was established for the sake of filial piety. Xiao Wang Beng, the prince of Fu Li Yi Crown Prince Xie, was the King of Yi.
That is, after the death of King Xiao of Zhou, his cheap nephew ascended the throne again and became the ninth Heavenly Son of Western Zhou, King Zhou Yi, who was originally the eighth in line, and became the old nine. However, it is a little strange that king Xiao of Zhou's son did not succeed to the throne.
Let's talk about this Duke of Qi, who was boiled by king Zhou Yi, is the fourth grandson of Jiang Ziya, called Lü Buchen, also known as "Lü Buchen", don't underestimate the difference between this word, "no subject"? Want to rebel? He really didn't think so. So why is it called "unworthy"? This is related to the other protagonist of this story, Ji Guohou Jihou.
In fact, as neighbors, Ji Guo and Qi Guo were originally a family, and it was Jiang Ziya who split the original State of Qi into two princely states and divided them into his two sons. However, in the generation of Qi Aigong and Ji Jiaohou, the two brotherly states had an awkward quarrel, and the elder Qi Guo wanted to destroy the Ji State, and the contradiction between the two became more and more serious, although Ji Hou could not defeat the Qi Laigong, but he had been waiting for the opportunity to engage the Qi Laigong.
No, after King Zhou Yi came to power, the opportunity finally came.
It turned out that although this King of Zhou Yi was cowardly, he still had a warm blood in his heart and wanted to revitalize the declining Zhou Dynasty, but he could not find a breakthrough.
King Yi of Zhou's thoughts were known to Ji Hou, so he took advantage of the fact that Qi Aigong was not paying attention and went to Tianzi to consult him. Say Heavenly Son, look at this monarch of the State of Qi, he has not paid tribute to the Son of Heaven for two years, he does not put your old man in the eyes! Moreover, his name is also called "Bu Chen", doesn't it read like "Bu Chen"? This is not a clear reversal of the old man who wants to create the Son of Heaven!
It was really sleepy that someone handed a pillow, and this zhou Yi wang was worried about many princes not giving Tianzi Nagong in recent years. Although you are the son of heaven, you also have to eat and raise people, which requires the princes to make offerings, otherwise you can only drink the northwest wind.
Ji Hou's words, like a touch of fresh wind, suddenly blew the frowning King of Zhou Yi into a refreshing and refreshing, good you Qi Hou, not only do you not pay tribute, but actually want to rebel! Just take you! Kill a chicken and show it to the disobedient monkeys!
In this way, the life of the unfortunate Qi Aigong unconsciously entered the countdown.
After some planning, King Zhou Yi spent three years, and he used his still existing appeal to let the princes come to the royal family to eat wine and drink tea.
As soon as these princes heard that Zhou Tianzi wanted to treat everyone, they rushed to the capital one by one with great interest, including of course the Duke of Qi.
Everyone entered the hall to take a look, only to see that there was a big cauldron inside, the fire was burning, steaming, and everyone's curiosity reached its peak, what kind of thing was this day going to do?
Just when everyone was confused about the state, they saw Tianzi's guards rush into the court hall and go straight to Qi Laigong, without saying a word, grabbing him and dragging him to the boiling cauldron.
This Qi Wai Gong didn't look right, this cauldron was not used by the Son of Heaven to make food for everyone, but to cook him! Mom, that's awesome! Hurriedly shouting loudly, Heavenly Son, what is your old man doing? Zhou Tianzi did not hesitate to count the sins of Qi Aigong, the main thing is that not only did he not pay tribute, but also planned to rebel, this is a capital crime, you must be cooked! Ren Qi mourned and cried out, King Zhou Yi was not moved, the other princes were still in a state of shock, and they did not ease up for half a day, plus they were surrounded by Zhou Tianzi's guards, and everyone did not dare to act rashly.
In this way, Qi Aigong, a great living man, was thrown into the boiling cauldron by the guards. For a time, the screams were incessant, and the princes who watched were frightened one by one, afraid that if one was not careful, the next one to be cooked was themselves.
Qi Aigong gradually lost his voice, and the fire was still burning. King Zhou Yi glanced at the trembling princes below, and his heart was very satisfied, this effect, leverage!
Poor Qi Aigong, inexplicably, became a ghost in the pot, and King Zhou Yi's trick of killing chickens and monkeys also had a certain effect, so he was proud for a while.
Wanting to take revenge on Ji Hou of the Duke of Qi, the purpose was also achieved, and I don't know how Jiang Ziyaquan knew, how should he feel?
However, the chronic diseases brought about by the Zhou Dynasty's sub-feudal system, and the law of the rise and fall of the dynasty, could not be overturned by boiling two disobedient princes. A hundred years later, during the zhou youwang period, a farce of the princes of the beacon theater brought the once glorious Western Zhou Dynasty to the end of history.
