Chapter 307: Love and hate, snipe and clam fighting
Sun Quan felt the young female body under the light silk clothes behind him and said with a wry smile: "Zifan and the others have been recruiting a group of important officials in the court to protect He'er, while another group is in Lu Dinggong (Lü Dai).
Under the leadership of Quan Ziheng (Quan Cong), he supported Baer to participate in the fight for the crown prince.
Even today's expedition of our country's army is no exception. It really consumes our country's strength. If I had known this, I should not have done it after Deng'er died of illness.
At the urging of the ministers, He'er was hurriedly made the crown prince. At that time, they also said that establishing a chief minister meant establishing a virtuous man. But now it seems that He'er is not as wise as they said. It is obvious that they are deceiving the emperor.
,
But I can't touch them now, nor can I find Jiang Chong like Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and just use a witchcraft case to kill them. After all, I still have to rely on them to govern Jiangdong and expand the territory.
Ah! What’s more, tiger poison doesn’t eat its seeds.”
Pan Shu saw that her man obviously loved and hated his right-hand men, but he was not so satisfied with the current crown prince and King Lu. This was a good opportunity for their mother and son.
On the surface, it seems that the person leading all this is Jiang Chong, a demon.
This person was from the State of Zhao, and he fled to Chang'an because he offended King Zhao Liu Peng's grandfather. By chance, he was actually appreciated by Liu Che, and after he returned from a successful mission to the Huns, he was directly worshiped as the Zhizhi Embroidered Clothes Envoy, responsible for dealing with
Supervise the illegal behavior of the rich and distinguished people in Chang'an City.
During a certain law enforcement process, Jiang Chong had a quarrel with the prince Liu Zhi. To prevent being liquidated in the future, Jiang Chong directly blamed the "witchcraft" disaster on the empress Wei Zifu and the prince Liu Zhi.
In this regard, Liu Che did not have the slightest doubt or hesitation, and directly authorized Jiang Chong to conduct a comprehensive inspection of the Harem and East Palace. Jiang Chong also lived up to his expectations and "successfully" dug out a Paulownia tree used for curses in the Taiwong Palace.
At this time, since Liu Che was summering in Ganquan Palace (he was visiting Ganquan), Liu Ji had a hard time defending himself, so on his teacher's suggestion, he launched an army to annihilate Jiang Chong and made a big fuss in Chang'an.
Under Liu Che's remote control command, the prince was defeated and was forced to commit suicide after a month on the run. Prior to this, Queen Wei Zifu also committed suicide because he was accused of being an accomplice.
In this "witchcraft disaster", in addition to the above-mentioned characters, tens of thousands of people were implicated for no reason and died as a result of the torture, frame-up and assassination by Jiang Chong's group.
What is strange is that Emperor Liu Che of the Han Dynasty, who had always been an outsider and bystander, suddenly appeared after the death of Prince Liu Ju. He suddenly "awoke" and expressed "undue regret". Not only did he kill the mastermind Jiang Chongyi and his co-conspirators.
Huangmen Suwen and others also built a so-called "womb of mourning" to express their grief for the prince.
As a majestic emperor and a master of political strategy, did Liu Che not have the slightest awareness or suspicion of all this? Did he really believe Jiang Chong and think that his wife and son were involved in witchcraft or even rebellion?
Of course not. If you look at "The Biography of the Wife in the Book of Han" again, you will find that the so-called "witchcraft" was not a disaster initiated by Jiang Chong in order to protect himself, but was completely led and launched by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che himself.
A political purge campaign targeting the entire group of Wei family relatives, including the prince!
There is a record saying: "In the thirty-eighth year of the Queen's reign, a witchcraft incident occurred and Jiang Chong was a traitor. The prince was afraid that he would not be able to find out, so he and the queen executed Chong together and sent troops. The army was defeated and the prince fled. The imperial edict was sent to Zongzheng Liu Changle.
, Jin Wu and Liu Gan followed the policy to accept the Queen's seal and committed suicide. Su Wen of Huangmen, Yao Ding and Han Yu set up an empty house and placed a small coffin in it. Tongbai in the south of the city was wiped out. The Wei family was all destroyed. "
Pay attention to the two sentences at the beginning and end: "The Queen of Wei was established for thirty-eight years" and "The Wei family was destroyed."
Unknowingly, Wei Zifu had stayed in the position of empress for thirty-eight years.
During this long period of time, the Wei family occupied almost every corner of the Han Empire: Wei Qing was granted the title of Grand Sima, Grand General, and Marquis of Changping, and all three of his sons were granted the title of Marquis. His nephew Huo Qubing was granted the title of Grand Sima, General of Whoring Cavalry, and Champion.
In addition to the title of marquis, five other members of the Wei family were granted the title of marquis. Wei Qing also married Princess Pingyang, sister of Emperor Wu.
If you add the Prime Minister Gongsun He's family, that is, the emperor's brother-in-law and Wei Qing's brother-in-law, a huge and intricate group of relatives will appear in front of Liu Che.
Although Gongsun He, the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, was cautious and low-key in his life, after all, more than half of his predecessors ended up dead, and few died well. Emperor Wu appointed a total of fourteen prime ministers in one dynasty, and most of them were
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty executed him on various charges, which can be said to be a "fee" to the prime minister.
Therefore, he also tried his best to refuse the position of prime minister, and resigned with tears.
Even so, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty still disagreed and became furious. Gongsun He had no choice but to accept the seal ribbon from the prime minister with tears.
At the same time, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty also named Gongsun He's son Gongsun Jingsheng as his imperial servant.
His son Gongsun Jingsheng was the opposite of him. He was a "root seedling" who caused trouble. He believed that he was the queen's nephew, was "arrogant and extravagant and did not follow the law", and actually "used nineteen million yuan of the Northern Army's money without permission".
After the incident was exposed, Gongsun Jingsheng was arrested and imprisoned.
Gongsun He loved his son very much, and he proposed to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty that he should capture the "capital hero" An Shi to atone for his son's sins. Although Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty agreed, Gongsun He did not expect that this would bring disaster to himself.
Soon An Shi was arrested. In prison, he reported to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty that Gongsun Jingsheng had an affair with Princess Yangshi. They also used witchcraft to curse the emperor and buried a puppet on the way to Ganquan Palace.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was full of suspicions in his later years, and with the sycophants around him in power, he ended up believing it was true. Gongsun He's active act of showing loyalty and atonement obviously dug a big hole for his Gongsun family and even the Wei family.
In 91 BC, Gongsun He and his son died in prison, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty also exterminated their family.
The death of Gongsun He and his son opened the prelude to the disaster of witchcraft. In fact, they had embezzled money, but there was no witchcraft.
How could Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty remain indifferent to a foreign relative, a power group that had been weighing on the royal family since the founding of the Han Dynasty and was feared by Emperor Hui, Emperor Wen, and Emperor Jing?
Therefore, it can only be "the Wei family is destroyed".
And the prince Liu Zhi, who was on the same vine as the Wei family's relatives group, could only be sacrificed together, because Liu Che was afraid that a hundred years from now, Wei Zifu might be the second Lu Pheasant!
Sun Quan looked at the pond blooming with red and pink lotus flowers and thought to himself,
Pan Shu whispered in Sun Quan's ear: "Although I have no knowledge and haven't read any books. Before I met Your Majesty, I had been weaving in the weaving room all day. I rarely had time to relax, but I also know that snipe and clam are
