What are the serious consequences of being jealous of others?
Yang Xingwen. In the seventh year of the Later Yuan Dynasty, Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty died, and the crown prince Liu Qi ascended the throne and was named Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty.
After taking office, Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty promoted Chao Cuo to serve as the internal historian, and he was particularly fond of him.
Chao Cuo has a very high status and great power, and has many separate visits to the emperor to discuss national affairs.
Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty obeyed Chao's wrong words, and the degree of favor exceeded that of Jiuqing, and many laws and regulations were changed by him and revised by him.
At the same time, Chao Cuo also discussed with Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty how to effectively weaken the power of the princes by means of degrading punishment.
Chao Cuo was favored by Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, and Prime Minister Shen Tujia was extremely jealous of him and tried to find an excuse to frame him.
The gate of the Inner History Mansion leads from the east to the outside of the palace, and Chao Cuo felt that there were many inconveniences in entering and exiting, so he simply took it upon himself to dig a door on the south wall so that he could enter and exit from the south by commuting.
The wall of the door that Chao Cuo privately chiseled is the outer wall of the Taishang Emperor's Temple.
After knowing the specific situation, Shen Tujia planned to ask the emperor to kill him without hesitation because he had committed a crime by digging a door on the wall of the temple without authorization.
Knowing Shen Tujia's plan, one of Chao Mistake's disciples immediately told him the news and reminded him to admit his mistake to the emperor as soon as possible.
Chao Cuo was very frightened, and hurried to the palace to meet Emperor Han Jing and explain the situation to him realistically.
In the early morning of the next day, Shen Tujia came to Emperor Jing of Han and asked to kill Chao Cuo.
Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty said to Shen Tujia: "The wall that Chao mistakenly chiseled is not the real wall of the Zongmiao, but the outer wall of the Zongmiao, he is not guilty, and it is impossible for me to kill him at every turn." ”
The request was not accepted by the emperor, and Shen Tujia was immediately angry, and hated Chao Cuo even more.
After retiring from the dynasty, Shen Tujia said to Changshi: "I especially regret that I did not kill Chao Wrong first, but went to report to the emperor first, and in the end, not only did my plan not succeed, but I was ridiculed by others. ”
Slowly returning to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Shen Tujia was so angry that he soon fell ill and died.
Jealousy is a terrible devil that can cause oneself to suffer greatly. Instead of being indifferent, belittling, rejecting, and hostile to others for the sake of competing for rights and interests, it is better to change your own thinking and compete fairly with others with your ability.
