When the first emperor was dying, Li Si was beheaded, what did he say in his last words?Years later, the word goes
After Qin unified the six countries, the situation in the world changed greatly, and Li Si conformed to the time of heaven and took power in the court. Abolish vassal states.
Transpose. An important member of the Qin Empire.
But instead of following the will of the previous emperor and helping the virtuous monarch Fusang, this Venerable chose Huhai for his own selfish interests. Due to his failure to purify the royal family, he was threatened with death. Before he died, he suddenly said:"I'm going to take Kou Gong to Xianyang to see the Luyou Dynasty. "Unexpectedly, many years later, this promise came true.
To take over the post of prime minister, Li Si must have a certain ability and ability. In this position, Li Si took a series of measures to safeguard national unity, leaving a strong mark on Chinese civilization. From a macro point of view, Li Si can indeed be called a capable minister, which in turn makes people feel sorry for an out-and-out villain like Zhao Gao"Favorability"。
But if we analyze it carefully, we will find that Zhao Gao and Li Si are both unabashed egoists. Lees often compares himself to a mouse. He would rather be a rat in the granary and live a full and comfortable life than be a rat in the pit and worry about it all day long.
The prime minister compares himself to a rat living in a granary, and his expectations of life are understandable. But it would be biased to evaluate him so simply. Li Siben was a native of Chu and worked as a petty official when he was young. In that era when all beings were unequal, Li Si tasted the warmth and coldness of the world.
But he didn't stop there, he wanted to change his fate and make a name for himself. Unlike most, he not only has clear goals for the future, but also a relatively well-thought-out plan.
Li Si resigned and went to Lanling to learn the art of the emperor under the guidance of his teacher Xunzi. His learning is very targeted and applied. After completing his studies, his life path also contradicted the past teachings of his teacher Xunzi.
Xunzi was deeply disappointed in Li Si's choice and blamed him for deviating from benevolence and righteousness and going to the jackal, tiger and leopard. In fact, it is difficult to judge which is right and which is wrong. Xunzi is the great master of the Chu State, and he doesn't have to force himself to survive like Li Si, so he can't understand Li Si's world.
Because of Xunzi's reputation, Li Si entered Lü Buwei's circle, and later entered the palace as an official at Buwei's suggestion. As a strategist, Li Si is outspoken, but equally ruthless, and everything is based on expediency.
Li Si cherished the opportunity to meet Ying Zheng very much, and after each meeting, Ying Zheng was very happy and promoted Li Si one by one. However, the good times did not last long, and a major event happened in Qincheng.
Since there were a lot of people from the other six countries in the Qin State, some locals believed that they were spies of other countries and were disgusted with them. When Ying Zheng found out, he ordered the expulsion of these guests, including Li Si, a native of Chu.
He has finally reached this position, and he has not yet achieved a bigger goal, will it be again"Toilet rats"？Li Si was a little worried, but after calming down, he still wrote an eviction order.
In the article, Li Si cites classics and analyzes the pros and cons of evicting guests during the peak of the merger. Ying Zheng was deeply encouraged after reading it, and not only lifted the ban on guests, but also recalled the people from the previous Six Kingdoms and restored their status in the Qin State.
After years of careful calculation, Li Si has reached the pinnacle of life step by step. But when he was in a high position, he became more cautious and stopped indulging in excessive enthusiasm.
Lees knew this very well that marriage with the powerful and their children, princes and nobles, was the only way to ensure peace.
But when the news of the death of the First Emperor Yingzheng came, Li Si was even more frightened, because all his power was in the hands of Yingzheng. After Yingzheng's death, Li Si could only move forward step by step.
According to the edict of Qin Shi Huang Yingzheng, the Qin State should have made Fu Su Gong the new emperor, but Zhao Gao wanted Hu Hai to ascend the throne. Zhao Gao found Li Si and persuaded him to cooperate with him. After weighing the pros and cons, Liss agreed, and together they organized a coup d'état in Vienna that put Hu Hai on the throne.
But after Hu Hai came to power, he lost his ambitions, and Zhao Gao even took over the affairs of the palace. As a minister, Li Si also had some ambitions, but under such an emperor, he could not achieve them.
But he also knew that everything related to himself was closely related to the entire Great Qin Empire, and he repeatedly persuaded Qin II to hope that the Great Qin Empire would be stable and long-lasting. However, Qin II only treated him as a spectator and did not listen to him at all. Li Si saw that Qin II was getting farther and farther away from him, and he felt uncomfortable, so he wrote a good article praising Qin II.
Li Si loves power, and Zhao Gao also loves power. At this time, Zhao Gao's ambition was further inflated, and the powerful ministers in front of him obviously hindered the expansion of his power, so Zhao Gao repeatedly told Li Si's mistakes in front of Qin II.
Although Li Si is good at the art of war and strategy, he is not as good as Zhao Gao in terms of cunning. Most importantly, he thinks highly of himself. For a eunuch like Zhao Gao, Li Si never regarded him as an opponent in his heart.
Lees has lost so much in his quest for power. As the saying goes, there must be an effect. He was relentlessly obsessed with power and eventually died under it.
Zhao and others falsely accused him of rebellion and tortured him, and he confessed because he could not bear the pain. In the end, he was sentenced to be beheaded for public display, but Lees regained his courage before he died.
He sighed with emotion, now many people in the world are dissatisfied with the rule of the Qin State, if you do not repent, if you continue to tolerate Zhao Gao's evil deeds, then the day of the destruction of the Qin State will soon come.
Later, he said, Qin II was killed by Zhao Gao, and Qin II was killed by Ziying, and the long-decaying Qin state soon perished, and the Qin dynasty soon perished completely in an embattled internal uprising.
Although he knows some power tricks, he is too greedy for power, ruthless, and ignorant of politics, so in the end he deserves it.
In addition to Qin Shi Huang's **, the imprisonment of Li Si and the burning of books were also one of the reasons for the fall of the Qin Dynasty. Having is a good thing, and being virtuous is a bad thing.
