The King of Qin attached great importance to Liao Wei and was bent on unifying the Central Plains and constantly attacking other countries. He broke up the alliance between Yan and Zhao, which cost Yan several cities.
Yan Wangdan originally stayed in Qin as a hostage. When he saw that Zheng was determined to annex other countries and took the land of Yan, he secretly fled back to Yan. He hated Qin and was bent on revenge for Yan. But he didn't train, and he didn't intend to contact the governors to crusade against Qin, but pinned the fate of Yan on the assassin. He took out all his possessions and looked for someone who could stab the king of Qin.
Later, Taizi Dan found a very capable soldier named Jing Ke. He put Jing Ke under the door as a guest of honor, gave his chariots and horses to Jing Ke, and let Jing Ke enjoy his food and clothes together. Jing Ke certainly appreciates Taizi Dan.
In 230 BC, Qin destroyed Korea; Two years later, Wang Jin, the general of Qin State, occupied Handan, the capital of Zhao State, and marched northward to approach Yan State.
Yan Taizi Dan was in a hurry and went to Jing Ke. Taizidan said: "To lead troops against the State of Qin is like throwing stones at eggs;" It seems impossible to unite all countries against Qin. I'm going to send a soldier, dressed as an emissary, to see the king of Qin, get close to him and force him to return the land of the princes. The king of Qin promised the best, or he would be stabbed to death if he didn't promise. What do you think? "
Jing Ke said, "Yes, but if we want to get close to the king of Qin, we must first convince him that we want to make peace with him. It is said that the king of Qin had long wanted the most fertile land in Yan State (in Zhuoxian County, Hebei Province). Fan, a general of the Qin Dynasty, was exiled to the State of Yan, and the king of Qin offered a reward for his capture. If I can bring the head of General Fan and the map of Du Kang to the King of Qin, he will certainly meet me. So I can deal with him. "
Taizidan embarrassed way: "Du Kang map easy; General Fan was persecuted by the State of Qin and came to me. How can I have the heart to hurt him? "
Knowing that Prince Taizi Dan couldn't stand it, Jing Ke went to Fan privately and said, "I have an idea that can help Yan eliminate disasters and avenge the general, but I just can't say it."
Fan Yuqi quickly said: "What idea, you are quick to say!"
Jing Ke said, "I decided to assassinate him for fear that I would never see the King of Qin again. Now the king of Qin has offered a reward for your arrest. If I can give him your headband, he will definitely see me. "
Van Yuqi said, "OK, just take it!" With that, he drew his sword and committed suicide.
Prince Taizi Dan prepared a sharp dagger in advance and asked craftsmen to cook it with poison. Anyone who is stabbed with a drop of blood by this dagger will die immediately. He gave this dagger to Jing Ke as an assassination weapon, and sent a 13-year-old soldier Qin Wuyang as Jing Ke's deputy.
In 227 BC, Jing Ke set out from Yan State for Xianyang. Prince Taizi Dan and several guests put on white hats and went to Yishui (now Yixian County, Hebei Province) to bid farewell. Before he left, Jing Ke sang a song for everyone:
"The wind is rustling and Xiao Xi is cold.
A strong person has gone and will never come back. "
Everyone cried at his solemn and stirring singing. Jing Ke took Qin Wuyang and jumped on the bus, leaving without looking back.
Jing Ke arrived in Xianyang. Peter said that Wen Yan sent his head and a map of Du Kang. He was overjoyed and ordered someone to meet Jing Ke at Xianyang Palace.
The ceremony of meeting the audience began. Jing Ke took a box with a picture of Fan in his hand, and Qin Wuyang took a map of Du Kang in his hand and stepped onto the steps of the Qin Dynasty step by step.
When Qin Wuyang saw the majestic posture of Qin State, he couldn't help shivering with fear.
The guards around the king of Qin saw it and shouted, "Why did the emissary change his face?"
Jing Ke looked back and saw Qin Wuyang's face was black and blue. He smiled and said to the king of Qin, "Rude people are afraid because they have never seen the majesty of the king. Please forgive him. "
After that, Qin Wangzheng was a little skeptical and said to Jing Ke, "Tell Qin Wuyang to give you the map and come up by himself."
Jing Ke took the map from Qin Wuyang and presented it to the king of Qin with a affairs box. Qin opened the affairs box, and it was Fan's head. Qin Wangzheng also asked Jing Ke to bring the map. Jing Ke slowly opened a roll of maps. When all the maps were opened, a dagger that Jing Ke had rolled in the map in advance was exposed.
When Qin saw it, he jumped up in shock.
Jing Ke hurriedly grabbed the dagger, left hand pulls the sleeve of Qin, and right hand plunges the dagger into Qin's chest.
Qin stepped back hard and broke his sleeve. He jumped over the screen next to him and was about to run out. Jing Ke went after him with a dagger. Seeing that he couldn't run any further, Qin ran around the big copper pillar in the hall. Jing Ke pressed.
The two men wandered around like merry-go-round.
Although there are many officials around, they are unarmed; According to the rules of the state of Qin, the samurai under the steps are not allowed to go to the temple without the order of the king of Qin. Everyone was so anxious that no one called the samurai under the stage.
One of the officials, a doctor who served the king of Qin, used his quick wits, picked up the medicine bag in his hand and threw it at Jing Ke. Jing Ke raised his hand and the medicine bag flew to one side.
Blink of an eye, Qin stepped forward, pulled out his sword and cut off Jing Ke's left leg.
Jing Ke couldn't stand and fell to the ground. He picked up a dagger and threw it at the king of Qin. Qin only flashed to the right, and the dagger flew past his ear, hitting the copper pillar and popping out of Mars with a bang.
Jing Ke, the king of Qin, had no weapons in his hand, so he went to power and cut several swords at Jing Ke. Jing Ke was shot with eight swords. Knowing that he had failed, he said with a wry smile, "I didn't start earlier." I originally wanted to force you to return to Yan. "
At that time, the attendants warriors have arrived at the temple together, ending Jing Ke's life. Qin Wuyang under the steps has also been killed by the soldiers.

Mozi broke the ladder.
In the early years of the Warring States, King Hui of Chu wanted to restore the hegemony of Chu. He expanded his army and attacked the state of Song.
King Hui of Chu reused one of the most capable craftsmen at that time. He is a native of Lu, named Gong Bo, and later called Lu Ban. Needless to say, throwing the head with an axe is the most dexterous. Anyone who wants to surpass his ability to use an axe is overreaching. So later, there was an idiom called "teaching fish to swim".
He was invited by King Hui of Chu to become a doctor of Chu. He designed a siege tool for the king of Chu, which was even higher than building a car. It looked high enough to touch the clouds, so it was called a ladder.
King Hui of Chu, while preparing to attack the State of Song, hurriedly made a ladder like defeat. As soon as the news that Chu made ladders spread, governors of all countries were a little worried.
Especially in the song dynasty, I heard that Chu was coming to attack, and I was even more heartbroken.
Chu's attempt to attack the State of Song also aroused some people's opposition. Mozi is the most opposed.
Mozi, named Di, is the founder of Mohism. He opposes extravagance and waste and advocates economy. He asked his disciples to wear short clothes, sandals and take part in labor, and regarded suffering as a noble thing. If you don't work hard, you will go against his idea.
Mozi also opposed the melee that caused disaster to the people in order to seize cities and land. This time, when he heard that Chu was going to invade Song State with a ladder, he rushed to Chu State himself, causing blisters and blood on his feet, and tore off a piece of clothes to wrap his feet.
After running for ten days and nights, I arrived in Du Ying, the capital of Chu. He first went to see an open defeat and advised him not to help King Hui of Chu attack the State of Song.
He said like a loser, "No, I have promised the King of Chu."
Mozi asked to take him to see King Hui of Chu like a loser, and the loser agreed. Mozi sincerely said in front of King Hui of Chu: "The land of Chu is very large, and Fiona Fang is five thousand miles, with a vast territory and rich resources;" The land in the Song Dynasty was only 500 Li, and the land was not good and the products were not rich. The king has luxurious chariots and horses, why steal other people's broken cars? Why throw away your embroidered silk robe and steal an old shirt? "
Although King Hui of Chu thought Mozi had a point, he refused to give up his plan to attack the State of Song. Gong Bo also thinks it is very sure to attack the city with the ladder.
Mozi bluntly said, "You can attack, I can defend, and you can't take advantage."
He took off his belt, surrounded it underground as a city wall, and then used a few small boards as siege tools. He called it a losing game to exercise and compare his skills.
Like a public loss, Mozi attacked the city in one way, and Mozi defended the city in another. One attacked the city with a ladder and the other burned the ladder with a rocket; One hit the city gate and the other was hit by a rolling stone; One uses a tunnel, the other uses smoke.
Nine sets of attack methods were used in the defeat, and all the methods of siege were exhausted, but Mozi still had many ingenious methods of guarding the city.
Stunned, but still dissatisfied, he said, "I've figured out a way to deal with you, but I won't say it now."
Mozi smiled and said, "I know what you want to do with me, but I won't say anything."
King Hui of Chu listened to the conversation between the two men like riddles, puzzled, and asked Mozi, "What are you talking about?"
Mozi said: "The meaning of defeat is very clear, but they just want to kill me, thinking that if they kill me, there will be no one to help them defend the city in Song State. In fact, he made a mistake. Before I came to Chu, I had sent 300 disciples, including bird slippers, to guard Song Cheng, and each of them had learned my method of guarding the city. Even if you kill me, Chu can't take advantage. "
King Hui of Chu listened to Mozi and saw Mozi's ability to defend the city. Knowing that there was no hope of defeating Song, I had to say, "You are right, I decided not to attack Song."
In this way, a war was stopped by Mozi.
Liu told corrupt officials
One evening, Emperor Qianlong came to the meridian gate for a walk. Looking up, I saw that the section from Wumen to Zhengyangmen was in disrepair, and many places were dilapidated and pitted. I think this is detrimental to the dignity of the royal family and must be renovated. So he asked He Kun to undertake the project and make a budget, which was limited to two months. He Kun was loved by the emperor, but he was insatiable. He was a plucking character. He was very happy after the order and felt that he had another good opportunity to make a fortune.
Three days later, early in the morning, He Kun took Ben and said, "Your Majesty, this imperial road is really unsightly and must be completely replaced. Because the stones needed should be purchased from Fangshan hundreds of miles away, and the masons carefully carved them, the project is huge, even if it is tight, it will cost at least 100,000 taels of silver. " Without saying anything, Ganlong immediately took aim.
Since then, many sheds have been set up immediately next to the Imperial Road, and both sides of the Imperial Road are covered with grass, and hundreds of craftsmen work day and night. As a result, Imperial Road was completed ahead of schedule in less than a month.
Accompanied by He Kun, Emperor Qianlong saw that the Imperial Road was flat and brand-new. He was overjoyed and praised.
In the early morning of the next day, Emperor Qianlong announced in public: "He Ai Qing specialized in Imperial Road this time, working day and night, fast and good, and finished it in January ahead of schedule. It was hard work. I'll reward you with twelve thousand pieces of silver, and then you'll be promoted to the first class. "
He Kun gloated, fame and fortune, and thanked him quickly.
Unexpectedly, a few days later, liuyong came across the details of this incident: it turned out that He Kun didn't go to Fangshan to buy stones at all, but just pried up the original stone and let the masons carve it on the back. After the roadbed below is leveled, it will be as good as new. Therefore, the construction period was shortened and the cost was saved, and only 12 thousand silver was spent in total.
Liu Yong is determined to expose this matter and make a fool of He Kun in public.
The next morning, after everyone entered the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Liu Yong quickly took off his royal clothes, put them on in turn, and then quietly followed him in.
Emperor Qianlong sat in the Kowloon chair, commanding, looked up and suddenly saw a man in different clothes standing behind his ministers. He felt strange, but on closer inspection, it was liuyong, the co-organizer of the university. I think: he always pays great attention to appearance and is cautious. Today, why did you wear the royal clothes backwards? What's going on here?
This detail was soon discovered by He Kun, who had been watching the emperor with his eyes open. Because it was clearly stipulated at that time that if the court dress was incorrect, it would be convicted. He thought to himself, Liu, now you have good fruit to eat. He deliberately gloated: "Liu's adult, what's wrong with you today? ? And he's so bluffing, ministers have all squeezed a cold sweat for Lu Yong.
Strangely, that Lu Yong turned a deaf ear with his head down.
If there were another minister, Emperor Qianlong would have lost his temper and mitigated his crime, but he remembered Liu Yong's loyalty and asked in a reproachful tone, "Liu, why did you wear the royal costume backwards?" Get dressed and come out to see me. " Liuyong went out with an epiphany, dressed and came in again. He knelt down and said, "tell your majesty that I really shouldn't wear royal clothes today." Please forgive me. However, it is obvious that they are wearing royal clothes, but now some people just turn the Imperial Road upside down and slightly modify it, and then embezzle public funds and make huge profits. Although it happened under everyone's eyes, I am afraid it is not easy to detect? "
Lu Yong voice down, just still cocky kunzi, suddenly like a short, face big change.
"What? You said that this imperial road has turned over. " Hearing this, the Qianlong hurriedly asked, "Liu, how did this happen? Play it carefully. "
Liu Yong strode forward and knelt on the ground, saying, "Long live the Lord, I heard about it by accident, so I went to the scene for investigation. However, it is better for the emperor to ask the adults first. "
Emperor Qianlong was taken aback and asked He Kun, "Why don't you tell the truth?"
When he saw it, he couldn't hide it any more. He knelt on his knees and said, "Damn it, I didn't go to Fangshan to stone. I just turned the original stone over and carved it before laying it. "
Emperor Qianlong suddenly became angry: "How dare you? How much did you spend?"
"Twelve thousand."
"What about the other 92,000?"
"Well," he just kowtowed desperately and couldn't answer any more.
Liu Yong said, "Your Majesty, don't ask. The rest has fallen into your pocket. Hey, I can't believe that such a small project can make a big difference in front of adults. I hope the emperor will make a clear decision. "
Only then did the ministers know Liu Yong's intention of wearing the imperial robe. Emperor Qianlong was full of anger, but He Kun loved himself and couldn't do anything without him, so he had to hold it high and put it down gently: "Dare to bully and confuse the monarch?" I order you to return the embezzled money and the money given to you to the state treasury as soon as possible and remove you from your official position. Moreover, this section of Imperial Road must be rebuilt according to your original plan, and you will be fined for the money you want. This kind of thing won't happen again, or you will be at your own risk. "
He Kun had to admit that he was unlucky, saying that he had been punished, and repeatedly apologized. Ji Xiaolan said, "Liu Da deserves a reward for his meritorious service."
Emperor Qianlong smiled and said to Liu Yong, "Well, I'll give Liu Aiqing three royal gowns. However, don't wear it backwards next time. "
Liu Yong quickly said, "Thank you for your kindness. Now that the case of Yudao has been settled, why should I wear imperial clothes again? "
Luban makes wooden kites.
Lu Ban is from Dunhuang. When he was a child, he was very dexterous and could paste all kinds of beautiful kites. When I grew up, I learned a good job as a carpenter from my father, built bridges and Gai Lou, and built temples and towers. I'm good at it and I'm famous in Hexi area.
This year, shortly after his marriage, he was invited by a monk in Liangzhou (now Wuwei) to build this stupa, which was completed two years later. Although he is in Liangzhou, he is uneasy about his parents at home and misses his newly married wife more. How can I get home without building a tower by mistake? Inspired by the whirling birds in the sky, he made an exquisite wooden kite, installed it on a mechanical device and tried it. It really flew easily. So, after dinner every day, he got on the wooden kite and knocked on the organ three times, and soon flew back to his home in Dunhuang. His wife was very happy to see him back, but he didn't say anything for fear of disturbing his parents. Early the next morning, he flew back to Liangzhou on a wooden kite. In this way, the time is not long, and the wife is pregnant.
Luban's parents went to bed early and got up late, knowing nothing about their son's coming home. Seeing that my daughter-in-law was pregnant, I thought she was misbehaving. When the mother-in-law inquired, the daughter-in-law explained that her husband went home by wooden kite every night. Who knows, parents don't believe it, and they want to see it with their own eyes at night.
When lighting the lamp, Lu Ban rode a wooden kite home. Parents' doubts will be dispersed. The old father said happily, "son, don't go to Liangzhou construction site tomorrow." Take a day off at home and let me ride a wooden kite to open my eyes. " Early the next morning, the old father rode a wooden kite, and his son explained how to use the mechanical device: "If you fly close, don't hit the wedge of the mechanical device;" If you fly far, hit it a few more times. Go early and come back early. Don't miss my work tomorrow. "
The old father kept his confession in mind and rode a wooden kite to the sky, hoping to fly to a far place to travel. He hit the wooden wedge more than a dozen times, but only one ear went in and the other ear went out, which scared him to close his eyes and hold the wooden kite tightly and let it fly. When the wooden kite landed, I opened my eyes and saw a guy flying to Wudi (now Jiangsu and Zhejiang). Wu people saw a monster falling from the sky and riding an old man with a white beard, thinking it was a monster. They surrounded him and threw themselves into it. They killed the old man with clubs and smashed wooden kites with knives.
Luban waited at home for many days, but his father didn't come back. Afraid of an accident, he made a wooden kite and flew around looking for it. After finding Wu, I didn't know that my father was dead until I asked. He was very angry, but returned to Suzhou (now Jiuquan) and carved a wooden fairy, pointing southeast. Wood fairy has magical powers, pointing out the earth, drought without rain, no harvest that year. "
Three years later, the people of Wu learned from the merchant population in the west that a long drought without rain was a curse used by Lu Ban to avenge his father. He came to Suzhou with a generous gift, made amends to Lu Ban, and told the story of his father's manslaughter. After learning the truth, Luban felt deeply guilty about his revenge. He immediately cut off Mu's arm, and Wu immediately dropped nectar to relieve the drought.
Then Lu Ban thought about it and thought that making a wooden kite would kill his father. The fairy who made the wood made a drought and made the people suffer, but he did two stupid things. They threw these two things into the fire and burned them. The wooden kite and the wooden fairy are gone.
