Top Ten Unjust Cases in Ancient Times 2006-10-01 19:05 If a tree is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it. You are powerful and brilliant, but in a dark corner, there is always a small group of people. They are staring at you and trying to kill you. They have no grudge against you, just out of jealousy. They attack you without knowing whether to use weapons or weapons. They often use a fool with power to do it. Seeing this We often get angry at unjust cases and criticize them. This is also another charm of history: it makes people angry, sad and helpless.

NO10 Fan Jujin slandered and killed Bai Qi

Bai Qi Bai Qi was the most outstanding general after Sun Tzu and Wu Qi during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. During the process of Qin's unification of the country, Bai Qi participated in and commanded two battles that affected history: The Battle of Changping killed 400,000 Zhao State's horses, and Zhao State was defeated. The country was ill and could not afford it; in the war against Chu, he became the second general after Sun Tzu to conquer the capital of Chu, Yingdu, during the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods. He also excavated the tombs of the ancestors of Chu, which made the six eastern countries tremble with fear. It was universal. Lost the will to resist.

At that time, the Qin State had Fan Ju in literature and Bai Qi in military affairs, and it seemed that it would soon be able to unify the country. Sadly, a figure like Fan Ju also made the mistake of a villain---- Jealousy. Taking advantage of his good relationship with the King of Qin, he always took the opportunity to speak ill of Bai Qi. Finally one day, the King of Qin was fighting outside and asked Bai Qi to lead his troops to cooperate. Bai Qi thought that this battle was not worth launching, so he gave it to the King of Qin. I made a suggestion and said it would be better not to go. This was a purely technical suggestion, but Fan Ju took advantage of it and said that Bai Qi was going to rebel. King Qin was already wary of the invincible Bai Qi, so he gave Bai Qi a sword and asked him to commit suicide. Bai Qi asked angrily: "Why?" Then I suddenly thought about it, "I killed 400,000 people in Zhao State. Shouldn't I die?" ?V

After Bai Qi died, Qin State immediately took over. When he failed to come up, he hired a fellow from Fan Ju named Zheng Anping. As a result, this coward got into trouble as soon as he sent out troops and was captured alive. The King of Qin once casually said in front of Fan Ju: "If Bai Qi were alive, how could he have suffered like this?" Where is the failure?" Fan Ju's face turned red with embarrassment. He knew that the King of Qin was blaming him, so he found an opportunity to resign and left. As a result, the pace of Qin's unification was delayed for several decades.

NO9 Wu Zixu was killed

Wu Zixu was the historical mission that Sima Qian admired the most. Sima Qian wrote in historical records: "Wu Yuan was burdened with national humiliation and family hatred, but he endured it. He waited for the opportunity with great grief and bone-deep anger, worked hard for decades and was determined to do so, and finally returned to his hometown and killed all his enemies. He was truly a bloody and fierce husband!" Wu Zixu's greatness lies in his respect for Chinese tradition. He dismissed the concept of repaying evil with kindness. In his view, fire should be extinguished with cold water, and evil people should be subdued with force!!! So when his good friend Shen Baoxu scolded him: "Even if the country is sorry for you, you still can't do it." We shouldn’t destroy this country in turn.” The member of the military unit, with his hair standing on end, said a famous saying that would make the villains of all ages tremble: “How can you repay kindness with kindness!!!”

Sharp , people with distinctive personalities will inevitably not get good results. This is an unshakable formula that has lasted for thousands of years in China. When Wu Yuan died, he killed a villain, Fei Wuji, and was killed by another villain, Bo Pi. History seemed to have played a joke on him. From then on, Chinese heroes They began a helpless fate: live gloriously and die in vain.

NO8 Empress Lu trapped Han Xin to death

p>

The cuteness of Han Xin is that he has a kind of contemporary American confidence and frankness. He dares to say whatever is in his heart, no matter who you are or what you think. For example, here are a few examples:

Example 1: After he was pacified in Qi, he openly wrote to Liu Bang without any scruples, saying: "The folk customs in Qi are tough and complicated. Please let me represent this place." King (fake king), suppress the evil spirit in this place." Some people say that Han Xin is using credit to blackmail Liu Bang, but I think Han Xin's brilliant mind would not be like this. I believe he is doing it from a purely technical perspective.

Example 2: After Han Xin was demoted, he once saw Queen Lu’s brother-in-law Fan Kuai on the street. If we were to use today’s perspective, he saw the Queen’s relatives when he was so unlucky! Why don't you hurry up and try to curry favor with Empress Lu? (Peng Yue was such a loser. When he was sent to Shu, he saw Empress Lu kneeling and crying, begging her to transfer him back to his hometown for retirement.) Han Xin refused, and scolded Fan Kuai with a smile: "You saw me coming and why? No kowtow!" Fan Kuai, overwhelmed by Han Xin's former prestige, immediately dismounted and kowtowed: "It's an honor to see the king here!" Han Xin laughed and knocked Fan Kuai on the head: "You are a Hou, and I am also a Hou. There is no need to kneel down like before! Oh, I never thought that I, Han Xin, would end up hanging with such rough guys like you and Zhou Bo!" After saying that, he turned around and left, not caring at all about Fan Kuai shooting at his back. A malicious look.

Example 3: Chatting with Liu Bang in the palace after being demoted, Liu Bang asked him tentatively: "Han Xin, tell the truth. You said that I would lead troops to fight like this. How can I do it with my talents?" How many troops will you bring?" After finishing speaking, he looked at Han Xin pitifully, hoping that he could encourage him because he was the emperor. Han Xin's head shook, and he blurted out without even thinking: "You can only bring one hundred thousand soldiers if you want to survive. Anything more will definitely lead to chaos." Liu Bang was stunned with anger, and retorted sarcastically: "What about you?" Han Xin didn't even think about it. He thought: "Of course the more the merrier." Liu Bang became even more angry and said something very petty: "The more the merrier, then why am I the emperor and you can only encourage me?" Only then did Han Xin realize that he had made the emperor angry. , and quickly gave him a step down: "You are good at commanding generals, so no matter how many soldiers I lead, they are all yours." Speaking of this, it was obvious that he was perfunctory with the emperor, and Liu Bang couldn't be happy no matter what.

As expected, Empress Lu later killed Han Xin. Liu Bang was so happy that he was so proud that he even asked Empress Lu several times: "Kill him? Really kill him?" "(This is not a fabrication. It is recorded in historical records that Emperor Gaozu was both regretful and happy. The two expressions combined were quite ugly.) Then, in order to get through, the couple fabricated that Han Xin was plotting to unite with Chen Xi (a minor character, belonging to Rogue opportunists, the rebellion was suppressed by Liu Bang. I think Liu Bang himself didn't believe this reason. Han Xin didn't even like Fan Kuai, so he would rush to find Chen Xi?

NO7 Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty killed Chao

When the Han Dynasty was established, Liu Bang believed that the Qin Dynasty was harmed by the county system. The superior power is too small, so when rebellion occurs, the county has no power to deal with it. Therefore, following the example of the Zhou Dynasty, the kings were enfeoffed and killed on a white horse to swear an oath. Only the person named Liu could be the king. He sent more than a dozen sons to various places to become kings, thinking that no matter who rebelled and became emperor, his surname would be Liu, and it would not matter.

But the later emperors were in trouble. Each of these kings became more and more powerful. By the time of Emperor Jing, some kings minted their own money and circulated it, and the central government could not control it at all. Emperor Jing asked someone to plan this matter, and Chao Cuo had the same opinion. So the two hit it off and became partners, and began to reduce the vassal. These kings quit and rebelled, which was the famous Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms in history. The master was well-known, and it was too naked to publicly overthrow the emperor and replace him himself, so after much deliberation, he created a "Qingjun side", which meant that the emperor was good, but he was controlled by Chao Cuo and forced the emperor to withdraw from the vassal. This thing sounds like a lie to a fool. Who is the feudal king threatening? Who would benefit most from ripping it off? It was obviously the emperor's own idea. But what about Emperor Jing? He didn't look like a daring man at all. In order to please the Seven Kingdoms and let them stop their troops, he said smoothly: "Yes, yes, yes, yes, it's Chao Cuo who wants to withdraw. Not only did he want to withdraw, he also forced me to do so." Listen to him. "Kill Chao Cuo! The thing about China is this virtue, you will never understand it. Leading cadres tell lies on stage with their eyes closed, and yet they say it so damn matter-of-factly! It's such a pity that Chao got this material wrong.

Personally, I think that from the Spring and Autumn Period to the Qin Dynasty, China's culture was very good, and integrity was more important than life (for example, after Hou Ying repaid his master Xinling Lord, he felt that he had deceived the king and was sorry for the country, so he committed suicide Also, for example, Young Master Guang of Yan visited Tian Guang, talked to him about confidential matters, and asked him not to disclose it. Tian Guang thought that Young Master Guang's words were an insult to his integrity, and he committed suicide). It was after the Han Dynasty that the atmosphere began to deteriorate, which was all caused by Liu Bang and his descendants.

NO6 Sima Zhao killed Deng Ai

I personally think Sima Zhao is one of the most sinister figures in Chinese history. It is said that Sima Zhao's heart is known to everyone. Let's just say that he ordered his subordinate Cheng Ji to kill the emperor. The emperor got ready to attack his palace, but was killed by a group of soldiers on the way. The blind man also saw that it was Sima Zhao who instigated it, but this boy just hugged the emperor's body and cried, and even shouted that he would punish Cheng Ji and avenge the emperor! ! ! Even his men couldn't stand it. A man named Chen Tai said: "Cheng Ji is just a guard, too young. Even if you take the leader Jia Chong (Sima Zhao's crony, who led the team to command Cheng Ji to kill If you kill the emperor, you can deceive the world's ears a little." Sima Zhao pretended not to hear and continued to cry bitterly.

Such a person will definitely not do anything good. Later, Deng Ai and Zhong Hui attacked Shu Han. Before leaving, Zhong Hui's eldest brother Zhong Yu said to Sima Zhao: "My brother doesn't know the depth." , He has always regarded himself as a genius in the world, and I am afraid there will be trouble if he is allowed to lead the army. "Sima Zhao said no, don't worry. After Zhong Yu left, Sima turned around and said to his cronies: "Zhong Hui's eldest brother is right. I really don't trust Zhong Hui." His subordinates asked: "Then you still let him go?" Sima Zhao said: "This There are many difficulties in going to conquer the Shu Han, and many generals dare not go. If you don't have the courage to force them to go, it will destroy the army. If Zhong Hui has the courage, he will definitely succeed. I will deal with him after the incident." /p>

Sure enough, Zhong Hui later became jealous of Deng Ai's achievements and wrote a letter saying that Deng Ai was planning to rebel and asked Sima Zhao to authorize him to attack Deng Ai. Sima Zhao had not completed his deployment against Zhong Hui at this time, so he agreed to his request and asked him to attack Chengdu quickly.

He secretly ordered Wei Guan to infiltrate Zhong Hui's army to contact the generals who opposed Zhong Hui, and ordered Jia Chong to enter Hanzhong quickly, cutting off Zhong Hui's retreat. In this way, poor Deng Ai was unprepared and became a pawn of Sima Zhao to delay time! ! ! It is really a pity that a famous general of a generation died in such an unworthy manner.

Later, a minister named Duan Zhuo couldn't stand it anymore, so he wrote a memorial to his son Sima Yan, saying: It's unreasonable to say that Deng Ai rebelled. Zhong Hui's men were four times as many as his. They were stationed in a valley far away from Chengdu and controlled the main roads. Even an idiot would not choose to rebel in that form. Moreover, Deng Du was over 70 years old, and there was no tomorrow for him. Did he still want to be the emperor? Sima Yan knew the mystery of this. When Sima Zhao was alive, he probably explained that Deng Ai was only slightly used by him, and that it was nonsense to say that he was treason. So Sima Yan immediately restored Deng Ai's reputation, but everyone was dead, so this kind of hindsight was of no use.

Injustice Index: 8NO5 Emperor Wen of the Song Dynasty killed Tan Daoji

The Liu Song Dynasty in the Southern Dynasty was very fierce at the beginning. It attacked Shandong and Hebei in the north, and conquered the Guanzhong area in the west. , almost unified the country in advance, which relied on two outstanding generals, Wang Zhene, Wang Meng's grandson, to the west, and Tan Daoji, the famous fierce general of the Southern Dynasties, to the north. Both of these people died at the hands of their own people. Compared with Wang Zhene's death, Tan Daoji was more unjust.

I won’t go into detail about Tan Daoji’s deeds. He managed to retreat the Wei soldiers with all his strength, and the trees blossomed and he retreated calmly. Not only was he extremely brave, but he also had outstanding strategy. He was the most feared general in the Southern Dynasties in the Northern Wei Dynasty. Liu Yu valued him very much during his lifetime, and when he was dying, he entrusted Tan to serve his son well. His son Liu Yilong inherited the throne and was known as Emperor Wen in history. Objectively speaking, this guy was not a fool, and he was also a good hand in government affairs and managed the country well. It's a pity that he is a little jealous of Tan's bravery and reputation, which creates opportunities for villains to slander. Later, the development of things was completely a Chinese-style conspiracy. A villain tried hard to provoke him, and the reason was vague. The emperor followed suit and issued an edict ordering Tan to commit suicide.

When the decree came to Tan, Tan's hair stood up in anger, he broke the bow in his hand and threw it to the ground, and cursed loudly: "Aren't you destroying your own Great Wall?"

N years later, the Northern Wei Dynasty became more and more powerful and continued to devour the territory of the Song Dynasty southward. Once, the Wei army even crossed the Yangtze River! Emperor Wen of the Song Dynasty was so frightened that he fled eastward to Beigu Mountain in Zhenjiang. Seeing the Wei soldiers walking freely at the foot of the mountain, Emperor Wen trembled and said with trembling lips: "If Tan Daoji were alive, he would never let the Wei soldiers be so arrogant."

NO4 Yang Guang killed Gao Ying

We know that Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty was a rare good emperor in Chinese history. The world he governed was smooth and bright on all sides. When the food arrived at Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, he had not finished eating it! ! ! Moreover, he was quite afraid of his wife. He and his wife, Empress Dugu, were very affectionate and affectionate. His wife felt sorry for him, saying that since ancient times, the emperor has been a member of the three palaces and six courtyards. It is not good for you not to have a single concubine. Let the world It seems that I am not virtuous. He took the initiative to find several concubines for him.

There were many famous ministers under Emperor Wen, among whom the most prestigious and capable general was Situ Gaoying. This man was both civilized and military. He had followed Emperor Wen since he was young. He came up with many good ideas and acted as a mediator to help Emperor Wen unify the world. He was highly respected and praised by the people. Even the emperor's sons respected him. But after Emperor Wen's death, his son Yang Guang came to power, and he didn't know what was going on. He began to waste his life on the family property left by his father. When Gao Ying was in power, he tried his best to dissuade him from doing ridiculous things. Yang Guang was afraid of Gao Ying's prestige and did not dare to act too recklessly, but he hated Gao Ying in his heart. At that time, Yang Guang had two subordinates named Yang Su and Yu Wenji. They both hated Gao Ying and felt that he was standing in front of him and not allowing them to approach the emperor, thus delaying their own future. He began to collect evidence to frame Gao Ying. Finally, I finally got hold of something, I don’t remember it clearly (you can’t blame me, it’s not clear from the history books), and I killed Gao for no apparent reason.

After Gao Ying died, Yang Guang got rid of his biggest worry and began to do whatever he wanted. His subordinates Yang Su and Yu Wenhuaji also began to usurp the government. But Yang Guang is a very interesting person. He is extremely suspicious and doesn't have a heart to heart with anyone. He doesn't care whether you are a gentleman or a villain. If he favors you today, he may find a reason to marry you tomorrow on a whim. Therefore, Yang Su's life was not comfortable. Once Yang Su was ill, his family said that he should see a doctor. A wry smile appeared on Yang Su's lips: "What medicine do you need to see a doctor? Now I'm dead." , you can still get titles and rewards. If you are ignorant and stubborn, you will be exterminated one day." So he indulged in joy and tortured himself to death. This can be regarded as retribution for falsely accusing Gao Ying.

NO3 Tang Zhuangzong

Li Keyong’s son Li Cunxu is actually a very capable person, even more capable than his father. After Li Keyong's death, he left behind many godsons, all of whom had great prestige and great military exploits. Some people were worried that Li Cunxu could not command these people, so they advised him to kill some of them to consolidate his position.

Li Cunxu refused. He knew that in order to command this group of people, he must first convince them! So he selected 500 cavalrymen from the surrendered soldiers and asked them to ride white horses and use silver spears, and they were known as the silver spear school governors. Acting as his own bodyguards, whenever he encounters a tough situation, Li himself will lead these soldiers and say to his godbrothers: "Just stay here and let me give you a look!" Rush up and deal with the opponent. As a result, these people under his command became more and more frightened and convinced.

At the same time, Li also paid attention to promoting young talents and enriching his team. At this time, he selected the young and capable Guo Chongtao. Guo is an amazing person. He is truly a talented person who can run the army on horseback and govern the people on horseback. At the beginning, many people were dissatisfied with him. Later, when he made meritorious deeds again and again, people admired him more and more and called him the rising star of the Tang Dynasty. After the founding of the Later Tang Dynasty, Emperor Zhuangzong Li Cunxu of the Tang Dynasty began to rest on his merits and enjoy his achievements. However, at this time, Guo Chongtao served as the minister and servant, trying his best to maintain the situation, and the overall situation was okay. Later, Zhuangzong ordered Guo to take the prince to conquer Sichuan. Along the way, Guo tried his best to quickly pacify Shu with wisdom and strategy, and taught the prince to study hard day and night. As for the prince, he is just a teenage boy with a bit of a rebellious personality and is very impatient with Guo's nagging and discipline. As a result, a minister under the prince who was jealous of Guo started to complain and said: "Prince, you see that Guo is so annoying. Let's kill him. Then no one will care about you, and you can have fun." "The prince's eyes lit up: "Really? Then help me kill him, I hate this guy too." So the assassination plot started like a child's play. The people were arranged in the prince's palace, and they pretended to convey the prince's order and asked Guo Jin to come and discuss matters. Guo was not prepared at all and saw the prince and the slanderer beside him in the hall. He went up to kowtow. Just as he knelt down and before he could say anything, the man took out the sledgehammer from his sleeve and hit it on the head, killing Guo on the spot! ! !

Afterwards, the prince was a little scared. The murderer said: "This matter is simple. Let's just lay out some charges." So he made up a lot of lies and wrote a book to give to Zhuang Zong. . Zhuangzong was surprised when he saw it at first, and murmured: "Guo and I have known each other for too long. Guo will not rebel." One of his actors came over and said: "Well, just kill him. This is good." What? Now that the prince is in Sichuan, we can't push him. Why don't we just agree to it? "Zhuang Zong is really a bastard. He picked up the pen and wrote a good word, and also rewarded the relevant personnel for "counterinsurgency"! ! !

This incident caused considerable shock in the government and the public. Many ministers saw from this incident that Zhuang Zong was really confused. His godbrothers also began to make moves. Later, without Guo's assistance, the prince was quickly driven out of Sichuan and fled back to the capital in embarrassment. Zhuang Zong knew that he had wronged Guo and regretted it very much, and his reputation was greatly damaged. One night, Zhuangzong's godbrother Li Siyuan led troops into the palace. . .

NO2 Song Gaozong killed Yue Fei

Yue Fei died, maybe it was not unjust. Why do you say this. This kid, you can just cut gold, there are many people cutting gold. But you shouldn't put forward slogans like "Welcome back the two emperors", but when the slogan was shouted, Song Gaozong was completely embarrassed. Oh, I worked hard here to direct the Jin Dynasty to bring back the two emperors. Come back, where should I put it?

In fact, Gaozong originally trusted and loved Yue Fei very much. As for Yue Fei, he had no background and was not from a noble family. It was just that he was appreciated by Zongze for his bravery in battle, and he once mentioned it to Gaozong. Emperor Gaozong paid attention to this talent and made great efforts to train him. In just a few years, he was promoted to a general at the same level as Han Shizhong. Later, when Yue Fei was working in Xiangyang, some people slandered him and said that Yue Fei had too much power and might rebel. Emperor Gaozong didn't believe it at all, so he wrapped the letter in a package and gave it to Yue Fei, saying that I believed in you and would send you intact any similar letters in the future. Yue Fei was particularly grateful to the emperor, so he promised the emperor: Emperor, don't worry, I will definitely conquer Huanglong Mansion and welcome back the second emperor! Gaozong immediately vomited blood after seeing it.

Finally, history arranged for an unlucky guy to take responsibility for the emperor, and this person was Qin Shi. This kid also knew that Yue Fei was not easy to defeat, but he caught the emperor's mentality. One day, he said with trembling fear: "Yue Fei's slogans can naturally inspire people and boost morale, but your Majesty, there is no way in the sky. There can be three suns." Gaozong was shocked.

Yue Fei finally died, and even until his death, this man did not understand the secret. He asked the emperor for an explanation, but the emperor had no choice but to give him three words: "It's unreasonable."

NO1 Chongzhen killed Yuan Chonghuan

Yuan Chonghuan was near Ningyuan (near today's Jinzhou) outside the pass and firmly prevented the Qing troops from advancing. Passing the main road freed up the Ming Dynasty to concentrate on dealing with Li Zicheng's rebel army. From Nurhaci to Huangtaiji, the Qing Dynasty was repeatedly frustrated at the foot of Ningyuan City. Yuan Chonghuan was like a bone stuck in his throat, unable to swallow or spit out. He even choked Emperor Taizu Nurhachi to death! ! !

Those who cannot be dealt with on the battlefield can be dealt with outside the battlefield. So Fan Wencheng came up with the idea to ask Huang Taiji to borrow a road from Mongolia and go south from Horqin to attack Beijing. This was a veritable adventure. The Qing army abandoned their baggage and advanced rapidly with light troops.

At this time, the Beijing government was panicked. When they were discussing moving the capital, Yuan Chonghuan came back from outside the customs, and the whole court was jubilant. Good news came one after another. Yuan Chonghuan defeated Huang Taiji in the first battle outside the city. Now the two armies are camping in the north of the city. Then, rumors began to spread in Beijing that Yuan wanted to negotiate peace with the Qing army. Later, the rumors became more and more serious, saying that Yuan secretly opened a hole in the Shanhaiguan defense line and allowed the Qing army to enter the pass. The emperor's suspicion became more and more serious. At the same time, Huang Taiji and Fan Wencheng were laughing outside the city. . .

At this time, a eunuch rushed back. He came back from the Qing army’s prisoner camp. He said that when he was sleeping at night, he heard the Qing army generals celebrating outside the tent, saying that Yuan Chonghuan was about to surrender to the Qing Dynasty. I also want to give Chongzhen as a gift to Huang Taiji. Chongzhen was furious when he heard this. He didn't even think about how a helpless eunuch got out of the heavily fortified Qing army camp.

The subsequent development of things was very distressing. Chongzhen used the most cruel punishment on Yuan and also mobilized the people to tear Yuan's body apart. The common people didn't know why, so they went up and cut Yuan's flesh one after another, killing Yuan alive. Treating heroes like this made all the generals loyal to the Ming Dynasty feel cold. Later, after Hong Chengchou was captured in the Battle of Songshan, he found Zu Dashou, Yuan Chonghuan's general who had surrendered, in the Qing army, and began to curse harshly: "How has the country failed you?". Zu Dashou did not feel insulted at all, and retorted sternly: "How has Governor Yuan failed the country?" Hong was speechless for a long time, and then surrendered.
