Why did Qin Xiaogong give up on winning
The grain of the Baili clan was mixed with sand and gravel dust, but the crown prince Yingsi killed more than 30 people of the clan in anger, which triggered a rare "Jiaonong" incident in the history of the Qin State, which plunged the Qin State into turmoil and even caused the reform plan to suffer a heavy blow.
After the incident of Yingsi's "Jiaonong" subsided, although Qin Xiaogong had already punished him, he punished him again a few months later, expelled him from the palace, and traveled as a traveling scholar to make a living.
Qin Xiaogong's move seemed to be impersonal, but it was actually a thoughtful and wise move, showing his gentlemanly demeanor. Although the change touched the interests of many parties, it also attracted opposition from many parties.
The Bai clan used the fief of the crown prince to obstruct the new law, and almost let the change fail. However, Qin Xiaogong, Ying Qian and Wei Ying formed a stable iron triangle, Wei Ying firmly promoted the reform, Qin Xiaogong was in the middle of the dispatch, and Ying Qian sat in support of the reform, which effectively stabilized the mood of the court and the people.
Qin Xiaogong's move was not to discare about Ying Si, but to better protect him. His approach enabled Ying Si to train and accumulate experience as a traveling scholar, and prepare him to become the heir of the Qin State in the future.
This is not only the protection of Yingsi, but also the responsibility for the future of the Qin State.
First, the new law abolished the Ida system and abolished the fiefdoms of the public office and the nobility, which touched the interests of many people and aroused their dissatisfaction. Bai Long, the patriarch of the Bai clan, took advantage of this and first told Ying Si about the impact of the new law on him, arousing his anger, and then turned to attack the new law, pointing the finger at Wei Ying, and demanding that Ying Si protect the interests of the old Qin people.
In the end, Gongsun Jia fanned the flames on the side, and Ying Si was furious, becoming a symbol of upholding justice and deciding to call the shots for them.
Original text: Bailong got the prince's sword of Shang Fang, and immediately refused to demolish the house, disobeying the new law, not only the three clans of Mengxi and Bai disobeyed, but also other well-founded families also stopped, and the new law could not be implemented at all for a while.
This also directly led to another large-scale killing in the Weishui Execution Ground, in order to make the reform smoothly, Wei Ying not only killed many patriarchs and free people, but also killed the famous Zhao Kang.
Just like the butterfly effect, this Xing killing attracted the assassination of the Mo family, Wei Ying was almost assassinated, Qin Xiaogong almost became a prisoner of the Mo family, the change almost failed, the lives of the two were almost lost, and the Qin State was almost in turmoil.
The second thing is that when the Meng Xibai clan was fighting against the new law of dividing the fields, Zhao Kang, as the county commander, not only did not report to the leader in charge, Wei Ying, but bypassed Wei Ying and reported to the young Ying Si, who was stunned to stir Ying Si in.
However, Ying Si not only did not realize that he had become the object of use, but also went to the monarch Qin Xiaogong with Zhao Kang and openly opposed the new law. The third thing, the Bai family's grain is mixed with sand, gravel and dust, which is obviously someone secretly set up a game, that is, to use the young Yingxi's irritable temperament, so that he can kill, causing irreparable consequences, almost causing a civil strife, although Wei Ying's thunderbolt means to quell these disasters, but but he dismantled the iron triangle that supported the change, not only stripped Ying Qian out, but also set up two powerful enemies for Wei Ying, the prince and Ying Qian.
This pile, one by one, all revolves around the use of Ying Si, all of them are aimed at changing the law, and they almost let the change fail, but Ying Si is unaware and ignorant of it.
When Ying Qian was there, the iron triangle that supported the new law was extremely stable, and no matter what happened there was a situation, it could be calmed down, and now without Ying Qian, Qin Xiaogong didn't dare to take a little more risk, and couldn't make a little mistake, and he had to strip out the special character of Ying Si, so that they could no longer use him, which was not only a precaution, but also a kind of protection for Ying Si.
04 Although the "Jiaonong" incident was quelled under Wei Ying's thunderbolt method, it left hidden dangers. Ying Si made a mistake, but as the crown prince, Wei Ying did not dare to really punish him, on the grounds that he was a minor, he only symbolically punished him, and asked the prince to give the funeral of the deceased in Baili, bear all the expenses of the deceased in Baili and the bereaved family's pension, and take the prince's fief, etc., are some punishments that are not painful.
The final result of this matter is that the initiator Ying Si retreated, and the real hurt were Gongsun Jia and Ying Qian, among which Ying Qian was the most wronged, he was just in the name of a prince, but Wei Ying sacrificed him for the sake of the overall situation and the smooth implementation of the law change, how do you let him not hate, he hated Wei Ying to death.
It is certain that Ying Qian hates Wei Ying, but the initiator of this incident is Ying Si, does he really have no complaints against him at all? Think about it from another perspective, if you are a winning god, you really don't hate to win with your whole body.
The passage of time has not punished the perpetrators, who are still living a noble life while they themselves are closed and isolated.
When Qin Xiaogong died and Ying Si ascended the throne, he had made a big mistake and killed the people without permission, but he did not get any punishment, but he was always active in front of the people. Such a king is destined to fail to win the hearts of the people, and he cannot win the hearts of the people below, and there are his highly prestigious enemies, Gongbo Yingqian, and countless royal families and nobles who oppose the new law, and they pounce on him together, and he will have to shed his skin if he does not die.
However, now, Ying Si was deposed as the crown prince by Qin Xiaogong and thrown to the mountains to fend for himself, he was punished so much, Ying Qian and his opposites suddenly became sympathetic, they were all victims, they united the front psychologically, and with a common enemy, Wei Ying, Ying Qian and Ying Si became an alliance instead.
Qin Xiaogong had a firm belief in changing the law, and he knew that only through the change of the law could the Qin state be strong. However, the experience of the failed reform of Wei and Chu taught him that the next monarch could not adhere to the policy of the previous reform, which was the fundamental reason for the failure of the reform.
Therefore, Qin Xiaogong planned to let Ying Si take over the law change, because with the teaching of Wei Ying, the teacher, Ying Si could insist on changing the law after he took the throne. However, Ying Si did not agree with Wei Ying's Legalist way, and he had his own philosophy of government, which worried Qin Xiaogong.
Under these circumstances, Qin Xiaogong decided to let Ying Si personally experience the benefits of the new law, so that he could see with his own eyes the benefits of the new law to Qin and the people of Qin. Qin Xiaogong knew that this was a wise move, and he had to make Ying Si understand the importance of the new law to the country and the monarch so that he could stick to the new law after he ascended the throne.
Therefore, he decided to let Ying Si leave the court and enter the mountains and wilderness to experience the changes brought about by the new law for himself. Facts turned out that Qin Xiaogong's decision was correct, and Ying Si's experience in the mountains and wilderness gave him a deep understanding of the value of the new law to the Qin state, and also made him understand the importance of the new law to the monarch.
This wise move not only eliminated two hidden dangers, but also laid a solid foundation for the future of the Qin state.
