But Jin Xiangong.
During the Spring and Autumn Period, the State of Jin touched every nerve of every vassal in the world. Why? Just because the state of Jin has a pioneering king-Jin Xiangong!
However, due to the "Li Ji Rebellion", many people think that Jin Xiangong is a fatuous monarch, who led to the civil strife in the State of Jin.
If you think so, you are all wet. Jin Xiangong in history was not only a fatuous man, but also a brilliant English master in the Spring and Autumn Period, which was controversial.
It can be said that without Jin Xiangong's solid foundation, his son Jin Wengong might not be the overlord in the Spring and Autumn Period. As the saying goes, predecessors planted trees, and later generations enjoyed the cool!
Let's talk about Jin Xiangong. In 677 BC, Emperor Wu of the Jin Dynasty died, and his son Jin Xiangong succeeded him. His wife was Qi Jiang, the daughter of Qi Huangong, the leader of the five tyrants in the Spring and Autumn Period.
Jin Xiangong was nearby when he ascended the throne. At this time, the hegemony of Qi was in full swing, and Chu had also risen. The state of Zheng became a bully, and the Qin people also dominated the west and made great progress.
Foreign invasion is not Jin Xiangong's biggest headache for the time being. You know, the State of Jin has just finished the internal struggle for more than 60 years caused by "robbing officials with Shu Ren", which has been greatly weakened and left everything in ruins.
Therefore, the first problem that Jin Xiangong faced after he ascended the throne was: how to strengthen centralization and avoid the tragedy of "grabbing officials with ordinary people" from happening again.
Speaking of "grabbing official positions with ordinary people", I have to say that the governors of the State of Jin are very rebellious. Although his ancestors were the youngest brother and the closest relatives of the Zhou Emperor, he did not strictly follow the "direct inheritance system" to complete the great inheritance, but only loved to do things like "robbing Shu Ren of his official position", that is, "small ones destroy big ones".
The first dispute of inheritance rights in the state of Jin occurred in the early Spring and Autumn Period, because the Duke of Jin named his two sons improperly.
Jin Muhou's naming of children is very regular, that is, he likes to name his son after the battle is won or lost. The prince was named Qiu because he was born when he was defeated in the Battle of Japan. The youngest son is called Shi Cheng, because he was born in the victory of the 1000-acre battle.
At that time, the doctors' uniforms in the state of Jin had not seen any signs of seizing the official position, so they were worried and put forward a lot of big warnings of "controlling righteousness by name", predicting that there would be civil strife in the state of Jin-the position of elder brother would be replaced by younger brother.
Sure enough, after the death of Jin Muhou, his younger brother Yi Shu usurped power and proclaimed himself emperor, causing the prince to take revenge and run away. But later, the prince took revenge and led the army to capture Uncle Yi alive and re-establish himself as the king, that is, Jin Wengong.
After 35 years in office, Hou Qiu of Jinwen failed to protect his son from trouble before it happened, but his brother's reputation as a teacher gradually rose. In this way, Hou Wen of the State of Jin died, and his son Empress Zhao of the State of Jin succeeded to the throne.
However, Jin Zhaohou did not learn the lesson of Uncle Yi's usurpation, but only overwhelmed his reputation and went to Quwo in the name of packet.
Quwo's land is wider than the Golden Shield. He is an outstanding talent, supplemented by Hou Jing's grandson Luan Bin and others. Soon, Quwo's influence gradually surpassed the wing beat.
739 years ago, there was civil strife in the state of Jin. Minister Pan Fu killed Jin Zhaohou and opened the gate to welcome him into Jin.
Being a teacher is naturally ambitious and ready to become a king in the DPRK. Unfortunately, the old man Jin didn't respond, and his teacher was frustrated and had to return to Quwo. Since then, Jin has split into two opposing political forces: Jin and Qu Wo.
In fact, Jin Xiangong's father, Duke Wu of Jin, also got a "large sum" as a "minor sect". In 679 BC, Emperor Wu of the Jin Dynasty killed the later Jin Dynasty and officially became the monarch of the State of Jin. You see, "civilian" has a long historical tradition in the state of Jin.
Therefore, I have long been wary of the historical lesson that Quwo used Shu Ren as a substitute and Shu Ren as a winner. Coupled with the huge public power at that time, it threatened the monarchy all the time, so it quickly got rid of it.
How did Jin Xiangong do it? He turned his fingers at home first, step by step, and prepared a ruthless killing plan.
At the doctor's suggestion, Jin Xiangong first alienated his uncle Qu Wohuan and his descendants, making them kill each other and create contradictions.
Have to say, Jin Xiangong's means is very clever, is tantamount to further, joint secondary enemy, hit the main enemy, but sinister means.
In order to consolidate their monarchical power, regardless of the blood relationship of their loved ones, they resorted to cruel tricks, which made people shudder!
Then we took a divide-and-conquer approach, and finally they were almost killed. A few lucky people dodged a bullet and fled to Guo, the sworn enemy of the State of Jin, to take refuge, which became a worry to them.
Guo Guo took in the children of these exiled Jin nobles, which also laid a curse for his demise. But these sons didn't give up. Guo Guo was instigated by them to continue to invade Jin, which eventually led to the tragedy of "fake cutting Guo"!
After consolidating the monarchy, Jin Xiangong deliberately rebuilt the new capital, Crimson, and moved in.
After internal settlement, Jin Xiangong also began to expand Zhang Zhilu. He sent troops to defeat Li Rong in the rear first. Li Rong couldn't resist the attack of the State of Jin, so he used his stunning daughters to please Jin Xiangong. These two beauties were Li Ji and her sister Ji Shao, which led to the chaotic state of Jin.
So, Jin Xiangong took aim at Geng, Huo and Wei countries around him. Jin Xiangong first expanded one army into two armies, and the eldest son Shen Sheng personally commanded the upper and lower armies.
This is how Geng, Huo and Wei perished. Jin Xiangong also gave the captured Geng land to the hero Zhao Su (Zhao's ancestor) and the Wei land to the hero Bi Wan (Wei's ancestor).
Finally, Jin Xiangong decided to take action against his sworn enemy, Guo. Although Guo Guo was responsible for protecting the aura of the North Gate of the Zhou Emperor, the doom of being destroyed came.
Guo's strength is not as weak as everyone thinks, after all, people can be used as a barrier to protect the week! After Jin Xiangong made full preparations, the State of Jin began to attack Guo Si.
But there is a state of Yu between Jin and Guo. If Jin wants to attack Guo, it must pass through it or destroy it first.
Although Yu's strength is not strong, if he joins hands with Guo, it will be earth. So he adopted the strategy of the great hero Xun, bribing others to destroy Guo.
The monarch of the state of Yu is a greedy man. He forgets that his lips are dead and his teeth are cold. After he accepted the bribe from the State of Jin, he let the State of Jin destroy the State of Guo.
However, what surprised the monarch of Yuzhou was that when he returned to Li, he dropped in to destroy Yuzhou. This is the story of "false road to eliminate danger".
Jin Xiangong also captured a celebrity from the state of Yu and was later sent to the State of Qin as a dowry by Jin Xiangong. But I didn't know that this prisoner made a great contribution to the later strength of Qin, that is, a generation of strange people: Priscilla.
In any case, Jin Xiangong's great talent has been fully interpreted in him, which has opened up a strategic channel between North and South for the State of Jin and laid the foundation for a strong State of Jin.
Si people have passed away. Although the "Li Ji Rebellion" was buried, it may be a big game played by Jin Xiangong for his successor to continue internal reform.
