This article vividly describes the story of the robber's abdominal incision, calling it the first time in history.
It is not easy for this article to spread so widely, but unfortunately, there are great mistakes in it. Let's first look at what the article says.
The following is a reference:
In 989, a powerful villain suddenly appeared in Fujiwara's home. This man's name is Yoshihara Fujiwara. He lived an elegant aristocratic life during the day, but at night he became an unscrupulous thief, harassing the streets of Kyoto. He is skilled in martial arts and scheming. It took the arresting officer in Kyoto a long time to discover his true colors. That night, Fujiwara Yoshi returned from evil. I made a tour outside my yard. When I saw nothing unusual, I ducked over the wall and went in. He didn't know that three warriors not far away finally determined his identity.
After midnight, officers and men surrounded Fujiwara's house. To their dismay, Fujiwara's house was brightly lit, the yard was open, and officers and men came in suspiciously. Between Fujiwara Yoshida, he sat in class with his chest bare and his abdomen exposed, with a sharp knife across his knee, blowing leisurely. Xiao Sheng is gloomy, but no one knows what it is. The officers and men surrounded the hall, but no one dared to rush forward and arrest them.
After blowing a song, the whole class was silent. Fujiwara raised his knife too much, but the tip of his knife pointed at himself. The officers and men held their breath, not knowing what he was going to do.
Fujiwara forced the knife into the abdomen, cut the abdomen word by word, then picked out the internal organs with the tip of the knife and threw them at the officers and men, and fell to the ground and died. The officers and men were so scared that no one caught up with the previous step.
Fujiwara Yoshi designed this way of death at that time, perhaps just to pursue the horror of death. But what he never expected was that this kind of suicide by caesarean section became the noblest example of Bushido hundreds of years after his death, thus becoming a compulsory subject for every soldier, that is to say, every soldier is looking forward to committing suicide by caesarean section one day. Fujiji himself became the first real belly-cutting warrior in Bushido.
The above contents are for reference.
This article should come from a collection of stories. The story itself has no historical facts. What's more, it's a pity that this article got the hero's name wrong. No matter history or story, there is no one named Fujiwara. In fact, I don't know where the name Fujiwara Yoshi came from.
In Japanese notebook novels and legends, there is indeed a thief who fits the above article, but his name is not Fujiwara Yoshiyuki, but Kuninosuke.
However, this Qiu Chui is also an empty figure, and his story of caesarean section is also fabricated by novelists.
Qiu Chui Fu Bao is actually a combination of two people. One is real in history, just like the story. This is a Fujiwara family named Fujiwara Yasuke. Keisuke Fujiwara was originally an official under the age of five, claiming to be the first person in the military strategy of the dynasty, so he was often injured in combat. His behavior doesn't seem very good. Once, he was arrested for robbing other people's property. At this time, he tried to commit suicide and finally died in prison. In the official history, there is no record of Fujiwara laparotomy.
As the prototype of Qiu Chui, another character is a thief who doesn't know whether it really exists. His name is Qiu Cui. According to "Ancient and Modern China and Foreign Countries", Qiu Chui was the leader of a group of thieves, doing many evils. It is famous that he plays the role of a dead man, stealing clothes from soldiers passing by when they are not looking. During this period, there are many stories about Nuo, so it is very likely that he really exists. However, there is no mention of Qiu's death in these literary and artistic works.
There is a very famous article in "Throughout the ages", which tells about an encounter between Kun Chui and Fujiwara Changbao, one of the four great kings. The story goes like this: Fujiwara Changbao knew Kunchui's identity, but instead of arresting him, he gave him a dress.
This Fujiwara Tehiro is the younger brother of Fujiwara Tesuke mentioned earlier. Perhaps it is for this reason that it was later passed down that Takashi and Fujiwara Taisuke are the same person. Only then did an overhead figure appear, which is the so-called hanging support.
In the "Continuing the Ancient Tales" that appeared in Kamakura era, the stories of Kunchui and Jingjie were combined to make up a new story, which said that the thief Kunchui Jingjie was chased by Yuan and his four heavenly kings, and he knew that there was no hope of escape, so he cut off his abdomen. He didn't die at that time. He died after being taken to the cell. This is the legendary source of the world's first caesarean section. As we can see, this is almost an enhanced version of Fujiwara's experience. The story of the continuation of the ancient story itself is considered to have no historical significance, and this story has obvious fabrication traces, so this number is very doubtful.
By the way, there is a very famous legend about Yuan and his four heavenly kings, that is, they killed the most terrible monster in history and swallowed the boy with wine. It is precisely because of this that later novels often turn Qiu Chuibao into a boy who swallowed wine, saying that the boy who swallowed wine was actually not a monster, but a thief Qiu Chuibao deliberately pretended to be a monster to do evil. This was Yuan's retreat after being seen through. Not long ago, I saw a kabuki perform this content.
So, who should be the real caesarean section first?
In fact, the first question in history who XXX is can only be a legend. At present, it is generally believed that the earliest caesarean section was a warrior in 12 century. Shibalang's famous town originated from North Korea, and almost all biographies from North Korea tell us that he committed suicide by caesarean section in Izu Oshima.
Similarly, in fact, whether the source is really the North Korean side who died of abdominal incision is still in doubt, and it is likely that the historical materials are exaggerated. However, Genji's clan is famous for its bravery, and it is still possible to commit suicide in a way similar to caesarean section. However, even so, he may not be the first.
In fact, there are records of caesarean section in historical materials, which existed before the source was North Korea.
Shortly before Yuan's death, his younger brother was caught and beheaded by the Ping family, and a retainer died because of this, and adopted the method of caesarean section. However, in view of the definition of abdominal incision of later samurai, this kind of partial death cannot be used as a case of abdominal incision alone. However, this can at least show that the method of abdominal incision had begun to appear at that time, and it was very likely to exist before the source was North Korea. In fact, it was at this time that caesarean section became popular. Of course, in the credible literature, the earliest source is probably North Korea.
A little further. In the Nara era (about the beginning of the 8th century), there was a record of abdominal incision in the ancient book Sowing the Earth. It is said that the goddess of shallow sea chased her husband, but when she didn't catch up, she cut her belly in a rage, threw away her internal organs and committed suicide by diving. This is a fairy tale in itself. Of course, we can't regard the shallow sea god as the first person to have a caesarean section. On the other hand, however, maybe this kind of suicide already existed at that time, so people will make it a myth.
So caesarean section may have a very long history, but the person who held this ceremony is not famous, so it has not been included in various historical materials. The source is the DPRK, and maybe it can only be regarded as the first celebrity who cut his belly.
