Chapter 425: Seizing the opportunity, Sun He swayed
Taichang Gu Tan retorted: "A copper coin has two sides, positive and negative. When looking at things, we often see one side and ignore the other. For example, behind the incident of Fusu being "unpopular",
There must be other reasons.
Perhaps Qin Shihuang's good intentions were hidden behind his "not wanting to see Fusu". It was only Fusu's fault and Liu Rong's failure to seize the opportunity in the end that led to his defeat.
As long as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can seize the opportunity and make a difference, he still has a good chance of reaching that position."
Take the fact that Qin Shihuang was furious and sent Fu Suyuan to Shangjun to supervise Meng Tian's repair of the Great Wall. On the surface, it was a "derogation". If you look at it from another perspective, isn't it a kind of experience?
If Qin Shihuang secretly decided that Fusu would be the next successor to the Qin Empire, then Fusu would not be able to rule the world solely by relying on Confucian benevolence and righteousness. If he wanted to become a qualified Qin II, Fusu would still need a lot of training. "On the Passage of Qin"
" recorded: "He ordered Meng Tian to build the Great Wall to the north and guard the fence, but the Huns were more than 700 miles away."
It can be thought from this that Qin Shihuang was keen on cultivating immortals at that time and heard a rumor: "Hu Ye is the one who destroyed Qin."
Perhaps from the "God's perspective" of future generations, we think this "Hu" refers to Hu Hai, but when Qin Shi Huang heard this sentence, the first thing he thought of was the Xiongnu. After all, in ancient times, the ethnic minorities in the north were collectively called "Hu Hai"
people".
From then on, Qin Shihuang felt that the Xiongnu were the most serious threat to the Qin Empire, so building the Great Wall in the north and attacking the Xiongnu became the top priority of the empire.
When Meng Tian went to build the Great Wall and defeat the Xiongnu, he did not fight alone. He had an army of 300,000 troops behind him.
And when Fusu gets there, he will be the most powerful "commander-in-chief", and Meng Tian will also listen to his instructions. Once he does well, Fusu may be able to take over when he comes back; if he takes ten thousand steps back, if Fusu fails, there will be a small one.
Son Hu Hai.
Perhaps in people's eyes, Qin Shihuang's favorite was his youngest son Hu Hai.
The main manifestation is that Qin Shihuang often doted on Hu Hai and turned a blind eye even if he had any unbridled words or deeds.
But Qin Shihuang is not an ordinary person like us, and his sons cannot be ordinary people either. As the first emperor of the ages, he allowed Hu Hai to toss around and tolerate him with a smile. Perhaps it just means that he has no intention of passing the throne to him.
.
Because you don't need a son to inherit a great cause, you can live an easier life; if you have a heavy burden on your shoulders, you must be cautious at every step and experience more hardships.
On his fifth tour across the country, Qin Shihuang took his youngest son Hu Hai with him. On the surface, he looked extremely glorious. It seemed that Qin Shihuang was announcing to the world through this move that Hu Hai was the chosen next successor.
However, what lies deep behind the appearance may not be that simple.
Leading Hu Hai to tour the country was essentially a test for Hu Hai, similar to the training of Fusu. Qin Shihuang wanted to see if Hu Hai could become a success, so he gave him glory, power and status to see if he could take it.
.
There is no doubt that Hu Hai failed the test.
What Qin Shihuang didn't expect was that if he failed to cultivate immortality, he would die of illness during the parade.
At the last moment, Qin Shihuang realized the importance of a successor and issued an edict to bring Fusu back. Everyone knows the purpose of calling Fusu back at this time. Zhao Gao and Li Si were afraid of Fusu's accession to the throne, so they conspired to modify the edict.
Not only did he not let Fusu come back, he also ordered Fusu to die under the guise of Qin Shihuang's edict.
Fusu, an upright and benevolent man, believed in "morality" and "benevolence and righteousness". He never imagined that there would be so many twists and turns. He committed suicide without even doubting it.
If Fusu survives, if there is any doubt, leading Meng Tian's 300,000 troops to fight back may not necessarily mean he has no chance of winning.
It's sad that Fusu failed to understand Qin Shihuang's "painstaking efforts" and couldn't even protect himself in such a "crisis-ridden" situation. This can be regarded as the price he paid for not being trained to the point.
Liu Rong was the eldest son of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, and his mother was Li Ji, the favored concubine of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty.
After Liu Rong was established as the crown prince, the eldest princess Liu Piao proposed to the crown prince's mother, Li Ji, to marry her daughter Gillian to Liu Rong in order to please the prince.
This was a great opportunity to add powerful helpers to her son, but Li Ji lacked foresight because the eldest princess Liu Piao often presented beautiful women to Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, causing her to fall out of favor. Therefore, she was dissatisfied with Liu Piao and directly rejected the marriage.
This caused Liu Piao to become furious and marry his daughter to Mrs. Wang's son Liu Che.
After Li Ji offended Liu Piao, Liu Piao often spoke ill of Li Ji in front of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, which made Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty even more dissatisfied with Li Ji.
Later, when Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty fell ill, he asked Li Ji to take good care of the other princes, but Li Ji not only disagreed, but also contradicted Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty. This disappointed Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty to the extreme. He felt that Li Ji was not suitable to be the mother of the country, so soon after
, abolished Li Ji’s son Liu Rong’s position as crown prince.
Liu Zheng was the eldest son of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. His mother was Wei Zifu and his uncle was the general Wei Qing.
In the later years of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, a case of witchcraft occurred.
Gongsun Jingsheng relied on the fact that he was the son of the queen's sister Wei Junru. The son of Gongsun He, the prime minister at that time, acted arrogantly and did not abide by the law. He was later imprisoned for improper use of military pay.
In order to save his son, Gongsun He captured Zhu Anshi, a Yangling hero who "violated the ban with force". He wanted to make up for his mistake and save his son's life, but who would have thought that Zhu Anshi would in turn accuse Gongsun Jingsheng of using witchcraft to curse Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
This incident implicated Gongsun He, Princess Zhuyi, Princess Yangshi, Wei Qing's son Wei and his wife, and Princess Wei's son Cao Zong, etc., resulting in the murder of several of Wei Zifu's relatives, and Wang Chong offended Wei Zifu.
and Prince Liu Zhi, he was afraid of future revenge and tried every means to frame Liu Zhi.
After Gongsun He and others were killed, the witchcraft case did not end there. Instead, it became more and more popular, and a large number of concubines and court officials were implicated.
Wang Yun also designed to implicate the prince Liu Zhi in entering. Liu Zhi wanted to meet the emperor to defend himself, but was blocked by Wang Chong and others.
In order to protect himself, with the help of his mother Wei Zifu, he raised an army and killed Wang Yun. However, he was charged with rebellion. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent troops to conquer Liu Ju.
After the defeat, Liu Zhi, who had no way out, chose to commit suicide, and his mother Wei Zifu also committed suicide immediately.
Teng Yin, the prefect of Kuaiji, continued to argue: "You are also a person who is familiar with history books. You must also know that there are only a few people who can achieve great things like this, and the chance is also pitiful. Your Highness, please do not listen to such ridiculous words, or Just listen to the servant's advice. The servant is half a member of the royal family, so how can he harm His Highness the Crown Prince?"
Sun He thought for a moment and then said: "What my brother-in-law said is that this must be the only way to look forward to the future." Teng Yin and Gu Tan were very worried when they saw Sun He being so indecisive and vacillating...
After Teng Yin's uncle Teng Dan and his father Teng Zhou crossed the Yangtze River, they relied on family friends and became the governor of Yangzhou, Liu Yao.
The two later became officials of Sun Quan, and Teng Dan was promoted to You Sima. Teng Zhou was also respected by Sun Quan because of his good writing skills, but unfortunately both of them died at an early age.
When Teng Yin was twelve years old, he had lost his father and uncle and was alone. However, he could always persist in taking good care of himself.
In the second year of Huangchu (221), Sun Quan named Teng Yin Queen of Wu, and because of their kindness, he granted Teng Yin the title of Dutinghou.
Teng Yin was fair-skinned, distinguished in appearance, and handsome in appearance.
Every time Teng Yin went to the palace to pay his respects on the first day of the first lunar month, the ministers in the court all praised him greatly after seeing him, and he was appreciated by many people at that time.
Sun Quan once asked Zhuge Ke: "How do you compare to Teng Yin?" Zhuge Ke joked and replied: "In the court, if you behave properly, have thorough etiquette, and are praised by others, I am indeed not as good as Teng Yin; but when it comes to strategizing and decisive victory. A thousand miles away, Teng Yin is no match for the minister."
