The mastermind behind the starvation of King Zhao Wuling was not his son, but another person

Behind the scenes of King Zhao Wuling, it was not his son, but another person.

In ancient China, benevolence and filial piety were spoken, which is the so-called"Monarchs, ministers, fathers, sons, fathers, sons"。

Since ancient times, power has been great for everyone**, and it is not uncommon for someone to usurp power, but if someone usurps power by killing his brother and father, he will be disgraced, unless the ruler is very wise and does more for the generations to come than God.

There are many emperors who have done this kind of thing, but among them, Tang Taizong Li Shimin and Sui Yang Emperor Yang Guang are the most famous, of course, Tang Taizong left us mostly positive, after all, the Tang Dynasty shines in his hands, but Emperor Yang of Sui is different, there is no earth-shattering feats, and it can only cause a little scolding in later generations.

Of course, this time it is not these two people who are talking about, but Chao He and King Chao Huiwen during the Warring States Period.

Many people don't know King Zhao Huiwen. Let's put it another way. King Zhao in the story of Yuhuan returning to Zhao is the same brother, and the same brother is also the same brother who beats the drum for King Qin at the Michi meeting.

Now the impression is not only to know who King Zhao Huiwen is, but it doesn't matter if you don't know, because we can also put it another way, King Zhao Huiwen's father is the most wise and martial King Zhao Wuling in history, this time everyone knows who this younger brother is, right?

Speaking of King Zhao Wuling, it is worth mentioning that he starved to death in the Dune Palace, and now many people believe that the culprit of the Dune Rebellion is none other than his son Zhao Huiwen King Zhao He.

But was King Zhao Wuling really starved to death by his own son? Zhao He: This crime of disobedience cannot be borne by widows.

So, who is behind the starvation of the nest king martial arts? Not his son, but someone else.

How did the Duni Rebellion happen in history?

King Wuling of Zhao was a wise man, and he changed the law through reforms to make Zhao a vassal state that competed with Qin, and Zhao was vaguely stronger than Qin at this time, because King Zhaoxiang of Qin was also a supporter of King Wuling of Zhao.

Chaowang Wuling is a smart man, but his heart is not in the palace, but on the battlefield, so he suddenly had an idea to seal his youngest son Chaohe as the king of Chao and call himself the father of Chaowang.

Since ancient times, there have been no two masters of the country, so King Zhao Wuling's move is also very dangerous. It's not that he didn't realize this, it's just that he exaggerated the warmth of love and underestimated the charm of power, and just when he was about to regain power in Zhao State, the focus of Zhao State had shifted to Zhao He.

When King Wuling of Zhao suggested that his eldest son Zhao Zhang be the king of Zhao, Fei Yi, who had not considered the situation of Zhao State, immediately refused. Since King Wuling of Zhao was able to calm the conflict, he could instigate his eldest son Zhao Zhang to organize a rebel army, attack Zhao He, and regain power in Zhao. However, this incident directly led to the rebellion of Dune Palace. Not only was Zhao Zhang killed, but King Zhao Wuling was also trapped in the Dune Palace and starved to death.

How old was Zhao He when Kumur revolted?

Many people will think that the reason why Zhao He didn't do this was because his father and brother wanted to take away his power, so of course he wanted to resist, but this was not the case.

According to historical records, Chaowang Wuling was born in 309 BC, and the year he passed the throne to Chao Cuo was 299 BC, that is, Chao Cuo was only 10 years old when he ascended the throne, and Chao Cuo's rebellion took place in 296 BC, when Chao Cuo was only 13 years old.

How could a 13-year-old child who is not yet an adult carry out such a huge conspiracy? It can be said that the aborigines are more precocious, but according to the Book of Rites, men ascend the throne at the age of 20, so a 20-year-old man is considered an adult.

Of course, we are not here to pursue Zhao Hezai"Dunny's coup"Whether he is an adult or not, but whether Zhao He at that time has enough ruthlessness and ability to complete such a big thing behind the scenes, obviously, he does not have such ability.

What kind of person is Zhao Hao?

Among the emperors of the past dynasties, there were also those who rose to fame at a young age, such as King Wuling of Zhao, who was only 14 years old when he ascended the throne, but his talent, strategy, and ruthlessness prevented a plot to bury the Five Kingdoms.

But King Zhao Huiwen is not Chao He, nor is he King Zhao Wuling, and it is impossible for him to make such an unexpected move at the age of 13. In fact, from the two stories of the return to Zhao and the meeting of Michi, we can see that King Chao Huiwen was not a decisive and resolute person, but a cowardly, even anxious and indecisive monarch.

Therefore, if Zhao He wanted to kill his own brother and starve his biological father to death when he was 13 years old, it would be impossible for him to do it, and if he could do it, his light and evil would inevitably shine in history, instead of playing a supporting role in the two stories of Lin Xiangru as he is now.

Since it was not Zhao He who starved his father Zhao Wuling to death, who was the most suspicious? It's Gongzi Cheng and Li Dui. It can be said that it was these two people who planned this conspiracy, and Zhao He had to accept it; After all, after the death of Fei Yi, who was in power in the Zhao State, the two brothers took over the government of the Zhao State.

Who's really behind the scenes**?

When we ** movies and TV shows about thrillers or solving crimes, we realize that if we want to find out who is behind the crime**, we first need to figure out whose interests are at stake. After all, it is only when there is a conflict of interest that the cause of ** or crime arises, which also explains all irrationality.

To find out who is behind the starvation of King Zhao Wuling, we need only look at who is the biggest beneficiary of this conspiracy. According to historical records, after the death of King Wuling of Zhao, Gongzi Cheng was officially appointed as prime minister and named Anyang Jun, and Li Dui was appointed as Sikong and named Fengyang Jun.

During the reign of King Wuling of Zhao, Gongzi was excluded from the political arena for a long time, which is why Li Dui began to show his fighting spirit in history.

Compared with Gongzicheng, Li Dui got more, because Gongzi was an adult, and he died within a few years of becoming prime minister. After Gongzicheng's death, Li Dui became the prime minister of Zhao and ruled for ten years in Zhao until he was deposed in 286 BC and disappeared from Zhao's history.

Did King Zhao Wuling really starve his son to death? Zhao He: This charge of disobedience, even if King Zhao Huiwen wants to carry it, I can't afford it, because at that time, Gongzicheng and Li Dui had exhausted Zhao He's strength, to put it mildly, when King Zhao Wuling was besieged in the Dune Palace, even if Zhao He wanted to send some food to King Wuling, he couldn't do it.

Who is behind the starvation of King Zhao Wuling? It was not Zhao He, but his sons Zhao Huiwen Wang, that is, Gongzi Cheng and Li Dui. If Gongzi Cheng and Li Dui had consulted King Zhao Huiwen for their opinion at that time, with King Zhao Huiwen's temperament, he would not have chosen to starve his father to death.

Since ancient times, power has driven people crazy and degraded, and when King Zhao Wuling gives up power, it is destined not to end well, and when the center of gravity of power shifts to other people, when he wants to regain power, it will definitely cause a reaction from those in power, because this is a battle that will not end until the last moment.

After the death of King Wuling of Zhao, the nascent state of Zhao began to show signs of collapse. After Cheng Gong, Li Dui and other leaders of the old aristocratic forces came to power, they did not deepen the reform of King Wuling of Zhao, and the fact that Zhao could not defeat Qin in the late Warring States period began to appear at this time.
