In the Qin Dynasty after the assassination of the Six Kingdoms, the only thing that scared Qin Shi Huang was death. However, a wandering ** family entered the Xianyang Palace again, and he was summoned by Qin Shi Huang because of his superb construction skills.
Surprisingly, this mysterious visitor was recognized by the court's ministers, who turned out to be Gao Yuanli, who had been hunted by the empire for many years and was considered a fugitive.
Gao gradually left the assassination of Qin, picture source Screenshots of film and television dramas, Gao gradually left and Jing Ke are best friends. After Qin Shi Huang escaped Jing Ke's assassination, he issued a hunt and kill order for Gao's relatives and friends.
Gao gradually fled and worked incognito in a shop. The shopkeeper stumbled upon Gao Yuanli's building skills and asked him to perform it. Gao gradually took out the dusty instrument and played a tragic and poignant Yan song, and the listeners all cried.
After that, Gao Yuanli once again attracted attention as an unknown musician, and even won the appreciation of Qin Shi Huang. After Qin Shi Huang knew Gao Yuanli's true identity, he still cherished his talent, was reluctant to kill him, and ordered him to be blinded and let him stay by his side to play.
However, Gao gradually approached Qin Shi Huang and tried to stone the emperor to death with lead hidden in the building while he was blind. However, he missed in the operation and was unsuccessful.
From then on, Qin Shi Huang never dared to approach the people of the Six Kingdoms again. Qin Shi Huang is most afraid of death, and the people in the world who want to kill him are not only Gao gradually leaving one person. Zhang Liang is one of the three heroes of the early Han Dynasty, born in a Korean aristocracy, when he was young, he set up an ambush and assassination on the eastern patrol road of Qin Shi Huang, but because Qin Shi Huang had taken precautions early, he secretly changed the car and failed.
Zhang Liang took advantage of the chaos to flee the scene, and did not go out of the mountains again until the peasant uprising at the end of the Qin Dynasty to assist Liu Bang in establishing the Han Dynasty. Once, Qin Shi Huang changed into civilian clothes and traveled at night with several samurai and encountered a gang of robbers.
At that time, the situation was very critical, but thanks to the help of the bodyguards, the robbers were repelled. After 20 days, Qin Shi Huang was at home, ordered the pursuit of fugitives in Guanzhong, and strictly rectified the law and order.
After suffering multiple assassinations, Qin Shi Huang was even more afraid of death. In the last eleven years of Qin Shi Huang's life, he was most entangled in the eternal problem of life and death, and what he was most worried about was perhaps the elixir of life that could never be found in a mirage.
A statue of Qin Shi Huang provided by Picture Worm Creative** provokes us to think about this ancient Chinese emperor. Qin Shi Huang was already aware of his unique place in Chinese history during his lifetime.
When he was 39 years old, he led the Qin army to capture the Qi State, and all the six kingdoms were destroyed, and he sat in the Xianyang Palace with confidence, thinking that he had done a great thing.
In order to flaunt the great achievements of the empire and promote his prestige, Qin Shi Huang decided to change his title. The ministers immediately rushed to the meeting, and Prime Minister Wang Juan and Imperial Commander Li Si and others proposed that Qin Shi Huang should be called "Emperor of Thailand", and the decrees issued by the Son of Heaven should be called "Book Making" or "Imperial Decree", and call themselves "I".
However, Qin Shi Huang only adopted half of it, removing the word "Tai" and merging it with the "emperor" of the five ancient emperors, calling himself "emperor". This title has been used by successive Chinese emperors for more than 2,000 years and has become the symbol of their supreme rulers.
However, when the empire declined, the title became a target for rebels. Qin Shi Huang also abolished the nickname and changed the name to Shi Huangdi, believing that future generations should be counted by numbers, such as the second, third, and even ten thousand generations, and the empire would exist forever.
However, despite Qin Shi Huang's confidence in himself, he may still be filled with the fear of death in his heart. He realized that human life is really short and impermanent compared to the heavens, earth, mountains and rivers.
Therefore, he pursued the illusion of eternal life, hoping to escape the shackles of death.
Seeking immortals: Qin Shi Huang went on five tours and finally died on the way, and his whole life was in pursuit of the elixir of immortality. In the twenty-eighth year of Qin Shi Huang, he went out to Mount Tai for the second time, held a ceremony to seal Zen, and at the same time met Xu Fu, a priest, who brought the legendary elixir.
Xu Fu said that as long as Qin Shi Huang gave him a sum of money, he would be able to take people out to sea in a boat to find the elixir of life. This legend has been popular since the Warring States period, when Qin Shi Huang believed Xu Fu's words and sent thousands of boys and girls into the sea to seek immortals.
Xu Fu has been gone for nine years, and there has been no news during this period.
Qin Shi Huang was keen on the art of immortality, changed his self-title to "Zhenren", and appointed alchemists to seek elixirs for him. He sent Lu Sheng and others to study and provided them with a large amount of research funds.
In his last years, many of Qin Shi Huang's actions were related to the search for the art of immortality. On his fourth tour, Lu Sheng gave him a catalogue with a prophecy: "Hu Ye, the Dead Qin".
Qin Shi Huang mistakenly thought that "Hu" meant the Xiongnu, so he sent Meng Tian to lead the army to attack the Xiongnu in the north and build the Great Wall. However, this did not lead to the art of immortality.
In fact, this line of defense played an important role in protecting the farming peoples of the Central Plains from the invasion of the northern nomads, but it also brought great suffering to the common people. A folk song sings: "Be careful not to give birth to a man, give birth to a girl and use her breasts, and you can't see the Great Wall, and the corpses are pillars." ”
In order to seek immortality, Qin Shi Huang sent many monks to the sea to search for medicine, but these monks could not find the elixir. In the thirty-fifth year of Qin Shi Huang, Fang Shi Lu Sheng and Hou Sheng decided to leave him because they were afraid of Qin Shi Huang, but their escape was learned by Qin Shi Huang.
Qin Shi Huang was furious that the alchemists had deceived him, so he regarded them as political enemies and ordered their arrest. The Xianyang people were also targeted by Qin Shi Huang, who accused them of spreading rumors in an attempt to sow discord.
Qin Shi Huang decided to make an example of 460 people to be killed in order to warn the world. This incident caused Qin Shi Huang's eldest son, Fusu, to contradict him. Fusu believed that Qin Shi Huang was too harsh and might cause discontent among the people, and he advised Qin Shi Huang to think twice.
But Qin Shi Huang did not accept his suggestion and instead demoted him to Shangjun. The incident was a microcosm of Qin Shi Huang's brutal rule, and his harsh methods made many people fear and resent him.
Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor in Chinese history, once dreamed of immortality, and killed a group of Confucian scholars in Xianyang for this purpose, but still did not give up looking for immortal medicine. On his last tour, he met Xu Fu, whom he hadn't seen for many years, and although Xu Fu told him that the elixir had been found, he couldn't go up the mountain because of the big fish in the sea that often caused trouble.
So, Qin Shi Huang gave Xu Fu some archers and resources, hoping that he could successfully complete the task. Qin Shi Huang personally operated a bow and crossbow and shot a large fish at Zhifu to escort Xu Fu's ship.
There are various theories about Xu Fu's ending, one of which is that he took grain seeds, 3,000 boys and girls, and a number of craftsmen and wandered to a vast land overseas, where he finally established himself as king.
Although Qin Shi Huang's dream of an elixir was shattered, he was reunited with Xu Fu, which was undoubtedly a rare "good thing" in his heart.
1.Qin Shi Huang, the glow is confused and guarded, and the celestial phenomena are unpredictable. 2.Looking at natural disasters and worried, Qin Shi Huang walked alone in the rivers and lakes. 3.The historical Qin Shi Huang, in the face of the evil omen of the celestial phenomena, finally embarked on the last journey of his life.
During a ten-month cruise, Qin Shi Huang became ill to the point of no return. He used his last strength to decide to appoint his eldest son Fusu as his heir, but Zhao Gao and Li Si secretly seized the edict and put Hu Hai on the throne.
Qin Shi Huang finally died at the age of 50, and his glory and legend disappeared into the dust of history at this moment.
Title: Dune Scheme: The Unity of Meritorious Deeds and Tyranny From his lifetime to his death, Qin Shi Huang was always a controversial figure. His exploits are unparalleled, and his tyranny is no less painful.
As a young man who inherited the entrepreneurial achievements of the six Qin monarchs, Qin Shi Huang drew an end to the troubled times of the strife between the countries since the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and established a unified centralized empire.
He abolished the division of feuds, ran counties and counties, unified weights and measures, repaired the road, built the Great Wall, and implemented "the same book and the same track", each of which was a correct choice that conformed to the general trend of history.
Under his leadership, the Qin army conquered the Xiongnu in the north and Baiyue in the south, extending the empire to an unprecedentedly distant frontier. His influence continues to this day. The rewritten copy emphasizes the unity of Qin Shi Huang's exploits and tyranny, while also highlighting his influence.
A glimpse of the style of Qin Shi Huang's unified writing is inseparable from Li Silangya's stone rubbing. Perhaps, some people think that Qin Shi Huang was a rare tyrant, and this view does not seem entirely unreasonable.
After unification, the Qin Dynasty only lasted 14 years, and Qin Shi Huang, as emperor, only ruled for 11 years. After Qin Shi Huang annexed the Six Kingdoms, he wanted to achieve more great things.
He was also very diligent, and even weighed the weight of official documents with a scale, and only after leaving work could he leave work after reading 120 catties of official documents every day. However, fate did not favor him, and the Great Qin Empire's rush to achieve success eventually turned into brutal rule over the people.
What Qin Shi Huang did was not all good things. It took 39 years to satisfy the emperor's arrogance, and 700,000 manpower was spent before and after.
Moreover, at the same time as the construction of the imperial tomb, in the 35th year of Qin Shi Huang (212 BC), he began to build another unprecedented project - Afang Palace. This fairyland-like palace was not built until the fall of the Qin Dynasty.
According to Professor Ge Jianxiong's statistics, the population of the Qin Dynasty was about 30 million at the time of unification. According to historical data, Professor Li Kaiyuan estimated that the Qin Dynasty mobilized no less than 10 million laborers for construction projects, southern and northern wars, and logistics support.
One-third of the country's population was sent to serve in the conscription, and the money and grain had to keep up, so the Qin Dynasty levied 20 times the ancient land rent tax on the common people. Under the leadership of Qin Shi Huang, the empire gradually spiraled out of control.
A year after the death of Qin Shi Huang, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang rose up, but they were just commoners, and their status was far inferior to that of the famous families of the Six Kingdoms. They only chose to revolt because they were afraid of being sentenced for delay, but they sounded the clarion call against Qin and triggered a wave of uprisings across the country, precisely because Great Qin had lost the hearts of the people.
Chen Sheng and Wu Guang said at the meeting before the uprising, "The world has suffered for a long time!" When Liu Bang raised an army against Qin, a silk letter to the old villagers in Pei County also read: "The world has been suffering for a long time!" ”
These six words are the talismans imposed by the people of the world on the Great Qin Empire, and their screams are the fault of Qin Shi Huang.
The big husband should be like this! Later, he defeated Xiang Yu and established the Han Dynasty, which followed the political system of the Qin Dynasty. When he was dying, he also issued an edict ordering people to sacrifice to the previous kings, among them, Qin Shi Huang's treatment was much higher than that of other monarchs.
Although the subjects of the Han Dynasty also affirmed the merits of Qin Shi Huang when summing up the lessons of the fall of the Qin Dynasty, they also criticized his arrogance, which laid a hidden danger for the rapid demise of the Qin Dynasty.
In the Ming Dynasty's "Three Talents Tuhui", Qin Shi Huang achieved some form of "immortality" by sharing the same face with characters from other dynasties. However, judging from his fear of death, this emperor of the ages is actually an ordinary person.
Fate gave the emperor a sad end to the elixir and elixir. After Zhao Gao and Li Si decided to support Hu Hai, in order to conceal the truth, they did not immediately return to the capital, but secretly transported the body of Qin Shi Huang and continued to parade along the original route.
Their party made a detour to the northernmost point of Jiuyuan (present-day Baotou, Inner Mongolia) and then returned to Xianyang via the Qin Straight Road (a passage built by Qin Shi Huang to connect the Guanzhong Plain with the Hetao region).
It was only then that they announced to the world the news of the death of the First Emperor. It was summer, and Qin Shi Huang's body was rotting and stinking. In order to cover up this smell, Zhao Gao and others brought in several truckloads of stinky abalone to "mess with its smell".
Accompanied by several truckloads of stinky abalone, the body of the First Emperor was transported back to Xianyang. A gorgeous and cruel era has come to an end.
