In the great cause of "revolution" against the sky, the Monkey King once shouted a famous slogan: "The emperors take turns to do it and come to my house next year." For the descendants of the king of Chu, the famous saying of master elder brother is perfect. Mrs Wang Di of Chu is a woman of A Qin, but she failed to give birth to a son. The other concubines of the King of Chu gave birth to five sons for him, in descending order: King Kang of Chu (Zhao Ming), King Ling of Chu (outside the son), Son Bi, Son and King Ping of Chu (son). Among the five brothers, except the son Xi, the other four have all sat on the throne of Chu, which can be regarded as "the emperor takes turns to do it and comes to my house next year". However, although Gongzi Bi was the King of Chu, his time was too short to even have posthumous title. People usually don't regard him as a monarch. Childe wan failed to secure the position of the king of Chu, blaming his father, the king of Chu. Because no, the king of Chu didn't know which son to make a prince before he died. To this end, the king of Chu visited the famous mountains and rivers of Chu and asked the gods to choose a successor for him. After the sacrifice, he and his concubine secretly buried a piece of jade in the courtyard of the ancestral temple. Then, the king of Chu ordered his five sons to fast for several days and go to the ancestral temple to worship in the order of generations. When the eldest son, King Chu Kang, visited the shrine, his feet straddled the jade. The second son, King Chu Ling, pressed the jade with his elbows. Gongzi Bi and Gongzi are far from Jasper. Only King Chu Ping was brought into the ancestral temple because he was too young. But he bowed down twice, only pressing Jasper's button. Jade buckle is the place where jade ornaments protrude. You can put on a rope, punch a hole here and hang it on your body. The three people who met Bi Yu later became kings of Chu. Only Gongzi Bi and Gongzi didn't meet Biyu. Of course, both of them missed the position of King Chu. King Chu Ping, because he worships the most accurately, is a "treasure", so the State of Chu was finally inherited by his descendants. This is the famous allusion of "being a wall" in the history of Chu, which was widely circulated in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. Therefore, Gongzi Bi failed to secure the position of the king of Chu, because he didn't have this blessing. But as the third brother of King Chu Ping, after King Chu Ling was overthrown, the son was more popular than King Chu. Why did he fail to hold his position and commit suicide under the fright of King Chu Ping? Isn't it so effective to be naive in the world, because you didn't meet Bi Yu, so don't let childe be the real king of Chu? This god really can't control it. In 545 BC, King Chu Kang and Lingyin Qujian died successively. The son of King Kang of Chu succeeded to the throne as King Chu, while the son became Ling Yin outside, the son Bi became You Yin, and the son became the stable Yin in the palace. It is not clear who is the official who gave up the disease, but he must have held an important position. According to the tradition of Chu, once the young king ascended the throne, all important political positions must be controlled by the son of Gongsun to prevent outsiders from encroaching on the political power. The post of Right Yin of Gongzi Bi was originally held by Qi Shenxian Yu. When King Chu Kang was alive, he specially invited Shen Xian and Yu Xianneng from Lu to be the right Yin. It is because of the tradition of Chu that Gongzi Bi can replace the "foreign" senior talents specially appointed by King Kang of Chu. It can be said that within the system, Chu people dare not trust outsiders completely. However, it was Truman himself who caused the civil strife this time. In 54 1 year BC, seeing that my nephew was young, my son secretly plotted to usurp and seize power. In order to do great things conveniently, he first ordered his fourth brother Gong Ma Yin Gongzi Xi and Taizai Bozhou Li to build cities in Gou (now Shandong, Henan), Yong (now Jiaxian, Henan) and Quercus (now Xincai, Henan), and removed all the protectors of the King of Chu from the palace. Seeing the Chu people building cities on a large scale near their borders, Zheng people were terrified, but Zi chan was extremely calm: "There is no great harm." If Chu Lingyin wants to do great things, he will definitely get rid of these two people first. This disaster will not affect Zheng, so don't make much ado about nothing! Gong Ma Yin and Tai Zai were both in Chu, and they were sent as far as the border to build a city. As we all know, Si Mazhao's heart is surrounded by childe. In June of the same year 165438+ 10, Gong Ziwei and Wu Ju were going to see Zheng. Before they left the country, they heard that the king of Chu was ill. Gong Ziwei immediately pretended to care and went back to Du Ying alone to visit his nephew in the palace. On his deathbed, Gong Ziwei strangled his nephew with the red tassel on his helmet and usurped the throne! Hearing that my nephew was killed, Right Yin Gongzi felt bad and quickly fled to the State of Jin to take refuge. The palace stables built outside the city, Yin Gongzi also fled to the nearby state of Zheng; And Bozhou plough, who built the city with him, was killed by people around Gongzi! Gong Ziwei succeeded in usurping the throne with little resistance and became King Chu Ling. After fleeing to the state of Jin, Gongzi Bi also suffered an embarrassing thing. Before he fled to the State of Jin, Gong Jing's younger brother, Gongzi Zhen, was suspected by his older brother and fled to the State of Jin. But the escape way of childe needle is not as awkward as that of childe. On the day when Childe decided to escape from the State of Qin, he hosted a banquet for Jin Pinggong in Jiang Yi (now houma city, Shaanxi). To this end, the son ordered people to put eight cars every ten miles on the way from Yongyi (the capital of Qin State, now Fengxiang, Shaanxi Province) to Jiang Yi to transport his gifts to Duke Jinping. In order to ensure that the gifts can arrive in time, Gongzi Town even sent people to set up a special pontoon bridge on the Yellow River. During the banquet, my son gave Duke Jinping nine awards-which means that the vehicle carrying the gift traveled between Fengxiang, Shaanxi and houma city, Shanxi eight times in one day! Such a laborious way to escape is simply a local tyrant among local tyrants! When Qin Gongzi's money arrived in the State of Jin, there were thousands of vehicles accompanying him. When the son of Chu State Bi arrived in Jin State, there were only five vehicles accompanying him. Chu's son is obviously much poorer than Qin's! Poor people will inevitably be looked down upon when they go to other people's homes for dinner. The sons of the two countries, who had a great gap between the rich and the poor, fled to the state of Jin in the same year, giving the Jin people a modest problem: how to determine their salary? Teacher Uncle Jin Pinggong is very simple. All 100 people are rationed according to the doctor's salary standard. Zhengqing Wu Zhao saw this arrangement, but he felt that something was wrong: "Qin Gongzi has much more money! "Childe needle with one thousand carriage, with many followers, one hundred people's rations is obviously not enough; Childe only takes five carriages than his entourage, and the rations for 100 people are too much. Is this arrangement too casual? Uncle Xiang replied: "Salary is determined by virtue, virtue is the same as age, and age is the same as capital. "If you are the son of another country, you need to determine their salary according to the size of the country. I have never heard that the rich and the poor have different definitions. Besides, leaving the motherland for 1000 carriages is too much! Qin and Chu were originally hostile countries. " Uncle means that Qin and Chu are already rivals, and the reception specifications of the sons of the two countries should also be consistent, rather than being too poor to love the rich. Wu lightly shows contempt for him, so it can be seen that Gongzi Bi must have suffered from the Jin people when he fled to the State of Jin. As a "superpower", it is of course an embarrassing thing to be so despised by Jin people. No matter how embarrassed, Gongzi Bi fled to the State of Jin, and finally escaped the disaster of being killed, and lived a stable life from then on. If an ordinary citizen didn't remember him, Gongzi Bi might have died in the State of Jin. Thirteen years later, because of the political chaos of King Chu Ling, opposition forces at home and abroad gathered to overthrow the rule of King Chu Ling. At this time, a key figure appeared. Shu Ren, prized by Yin Zinan, was killed after being suspected by King Chu Kang. His son, Guan Yu, fled to Cai State and served Dr. Cai in the court of Wu State. Seeing that King Chu Ling was unpopular, Guan Yu discussed with him and said, "If we don't take the opportunity to seal it again today, we can't seal it. I ask for a try! " At this time, your son gave up his illness as Cai Gong, which was under the jurisdiction of Chen and Cai. In the name of King Chu Ping, he boldly recruited two brothers, Gongzi Bi and Gongzi, from the State of Jin and Zheng, and made a vow with them. Just after Gongzi Bi left the State of Jin, then Zhengqing Han Qi asked his uncle, "Can Zigan (that is, Gongzi Bi) succeed?" "Uncle simply replied:" "Difficult!" Han Qi said in surprise, "Zigan and others all have the same hatred and need each other, just like businessmen in the market. What are the difficulties? " Marketers will be desperate for profits; Zi Gan and others hated King Chu Ling and shared weal and woe. Will they fail again? Uncle Xiang replied, "If no one is like him, who will share his hatred?" ? Zi Gan has been in the State of Jin for thirteen years. Among the people who followed him in Jin Chu, he has never heard of a wise man who proved that he is nobody. Destroy his people, betray his relatives, and prove that he has no internal affairs; Chu now nothing important, but reckless, prove that he has no plan; Long-term exile in the state of Jin shows that he has no people; Exiled abroad, but no one misses him, which proves that he has no virtue. Zigan has violated these five taboos and wants to kill the king and usurp the throne. Who can help him succeed? The person who can own the state of Chu should be the son who gave up his illness! He ruled the land of Chen and Cai, and all the places except Fangcheng (now Fangcheng, Henan Province) were under his jurisdiction. Without tyranny and evil, the robbers in this area disappeared. Although they had selfish desires, they did not violate etiquette and the people did not resent him. He is blessed by the gods and people trust him. Once the secret surname is in chaos, young people often get a place, which is the general state of Chu! "Although childe than want to get this country, but no one supports him, how is it possible to secure the throne? Han Qi was a little unconvinced and mentioned the analogy of the other two people: "Didn't Qi Huangong and Jin Wengong get their own countries after exile?" "Qi Huangong was in exile for several years, and Jin Wengong was in exile for 19 years. Didn't they all become monarchs at last? People are different-they are also exiles. Qi Huangong and Jin Wengong are just different! Xiang Gong said, "Qi Huangong is the son of Qi Huangong. It is assisted by Bao, Bing and Gao Shi, assisted by Ju Guo and assisted by foreign aid, and assisted by Shi Guo and Gao Shi. His advice is when most needed is least heeded, and he is a courteous corporal. He is not greedy for money and bribes, does not indulge his desires, is tireless in giving, and is not satisfied with seeking good. Is it wrong that he can win the country? Wen Gong, the first monarch in China, was the son of the fox Gigi and was loved by Jin Xiangong. He likes studying and has no second thoughts. When he is seventeen, he will be surrounded by five China scholars. Records take Zhao Shuai and Hu Yan as confidants, Wei Gui and Jia Tuo as thighs, Song, Qin and Chu as foreign aid, and Luan Zhi, Yi, Yi and others as domestic aid. After 0/9 years in exile, he stuck to his ambition and became more single-minded. Jin and Jin Huaigong abandoned the people, so Jin talents followed. These two monarchs are completely different from the sons. Zigan did not give alms to the people, nor did he have foreign aid. When he left the state of Jin, he was not escorted by Jin people. When he came back, no one in Chu greeted him. How can he win the state of Chu? " Exile is not a necessary condition for getting a country, and not every exiled son can get a country in the end. Qi Huangong and Wen Gong won the country because they were wise and attracted scholars to join them. There are foreigners, foreign aid and domestic help around them, so once the country is in trouble, they can return to China to be kings smoothly. Childe has been in the state of Jin for thirteen years, but there is not even a wise man around him. How can he compare with Qi Huangong and Jin Wengong? Therefore, even if "the emperor takes turns to come to my house next year", other brothers can be kings of Chu, but not the prince: King Chu Ling is chaotic, but he can still generously reuse such enemies; Although King Chu Ping was fatuous in his later period, he had won the support of most Chu people before-what's the difference between a son and a son? After overthrowing King Chu Ling, the son took advantage of the situation and sat on the throne. But a few days later, he was scared by his brother's illness and committed suicide! Is this because he is doomed to be king of Chu? It should be said that he is not cut out to be a king of Chu!
