In his later years, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was very extravagant, often building a lot of buildings, and the treasury was empty. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty also liked to appoint cruel officials and increase punishment, and never took murder seriously. On the other hand, he is often advised to be closely related to the people, try his best to reduce the burden on the people and implement a policy of generosity and kindness. As a result, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty gradually became dissatisfied and resentful towards Herry Liu.
Besides Liu Yuxin, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty later had five sons. Among the six sons, Liu Fuling, the youngest son, was the favorite son of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty often boasted that Liu Fuling was like himself, and even planned to abolish Liu Yuxin and make Liu Fuling a prince.
Witchcraft was very popular in Beijing at that time. Witchcraft means that people make Woodenhead, engrave the names of their enemies on it, and then put it underground or in the house to curse day and night. According to them, such swearing can make the other party suffer, and you are blessed. This witchcraft was also introduced to the palace. Those beauties and maids who bear a grudge against the emperor and queen also buried Woodenhead and secretly cursed him.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was superstitious about this. One day at noon, he was lying in bed and sleeping. Suddenly, he dreamed that thousands of wooden heads with sticks were calling him, which woke him up. He thought someone was cursing him and immediately sent Jiang Chong to investigate.
Jiang Chong is a heartless guy. He found many confidants, snooped around wooden heads, clamped people with red-hot irons, branded them and forced them to confess. No matter who he is, as long as he is accused by Jiang Chong of "cursing the emperor", he will not live. Within a few days, he killed tens of thousands of people.
In this tragedy, Prime Minister Gong Sunhe and his family, as well as Wei Ruyun's daughters Yang Shi Princess and Princess Zhu Yi, were beheaded by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Seeing that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty could kill his daughter, Jiang Chong became more confident and bold. He asked the wizard to say to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, "Someone in the palace cursed the emperor. It is very toxic. If those wooden heads are not dug out, the emperor will not get better. "
So Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty appointed Jiang Chong to visit Woodenhead in the palace with a large number of people. They started from the estranged harem of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and searched all the way to the living rooms of Wei Ruyun and Liu Yuxin. They searched the house and found no wood.
In order to frame Liu Yuxin, Jiang Chong took advantage of people's inattention and took out Woodenhead prepared in advance, boasting: "Woodenhead dug the most in the mother's womb, and found a silk book written by the prince, which cursed the emperor. We should tell the emperor immediately and do his death. "
According to Liu, seeing Jiang Chong deliberately framing himself, he immediately went to Ganquan Palace to complain to the emperor personally, hoping to get the emperor's pardon. Jiang Chong was afraid that Liu would expose his plot to Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty, so he quickly sent someone to stop Liu's chariots and horses and refused to let him go. Liu was cornered, so he had to let his confidant dress up as an envoy sent by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and lock up Jiang Chong and others.
Herry Liu pointed at Jiang Chong and scolded, "You traitor, are you still trying to sow discord between our father and son?" Say that finish, Liu with Jiang Chong rebellion as an excuse, life samurai beheaded him.
In order to prevent accidents, Liu Yuxin quickly sent someone to inform Wei Ruyun and mobilized troops to defend the palace. At this time, the eunuch Su Wen and others escaped and reported that Liu Yuxin had rebelled. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty believed it, and immediately issued a letter and ordered the arrest of the prince.
At the last minute, Liu had to open the armory and arm the captives in the capital to resist the troops who came to suppress the "rebellion". He also wants to mobilize the Hu army and the northern army. As a result, the army of Hu people was mobilized by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to suppress the rebellion of the Prince, and Ren An, the commander of the Northern Army, was rejected by the Prince. The prince also announced to the civil and military officials in the city: "The emperor is recovering from illness in Ganquan Palace, and a traitor got up to make trouble." In this way, the officials and people in the city don't know who rebelled, which is even more chaotic.
The two sides fought fiercely in the city for four or five days, killing and injuring tens of thousands of people, and the streets were full of bodies and blood. As a result, Liu was defeated and had to take his two sons to the south gate. The gatekeeper let the prince escape from Chang 'an, and finally went to a common people's house in Huxian (now Lingbao West, Henan) to hide.
Soon, Li Shou, the county magistrate of Xin 'an (now Mianchi East, Henan Province), knew the whereabouts of the prince and took people to arrest him. Liu had nowhere to run, so he tied a rope to the door and hanged himself. His two sons and the owner of that family were also killed by Zhang Fuchang and others under Li Shou.
Later, Emperor Wudi sent someone to investigate, only to know that Wei Ruyun and Liu Yuxin didn't bury wood at all, and it was all Jiang Chong's fault. In this disaster, he lost a prince and two grandchildren, sad and regretful. So he ordered Jiang Chong's clan to be destroyed, and Su Wen, the eunuch, was burned alive. Other ministers involved in this matter were also executed.
Finally, the more he thought about it, the more sad he became. He sent people to build a palace in Huxian County, named "Thinking of the Uterus", and also built a high platform named "Looking for the Home" to pin his thoughts on Iraq and those two grandchildren.
Napoleon
Napoleon was a great man, but it was because he was narrow-minded and intolerant that he lost his position as the world hegemon and ended his legendary life with failure.
One day two centuries ago, the American inventor Fulton came to the magnificent Palace of Versailles. He had just invented the steam engine armored warship and was cheerfully suggesting to Napoleon to replace the wooden boats in France at that time. There is no doubt that steam engine armored warships are much more advanced than wooden warships, and their power is different. Seeing that Napoleon was about to be persuaded by Fulton to adopt Fulton's suggestion, Napoleon's face suddenly changed, and his eyes radiated uncontrollable anger and his eyes approached Fulton. The cooperation fell through, and the inexplicable Fulton may never know. The reason for his failure lies entirely in his casual compliment to Napoleon: "Great Majesty, you will become the truly tallest person in the world!" Here, Fulton wanted to express the meaning of "noble" and "sublime", but he accidentally said "noble" and "sublime" as "tall" in French, just because Fulton himself was tall, which just hit Napoleon's most inferiority complex and fear of being laughed at by others-short stature.
Napoleon felt inferior and jealous. He growled at the tall Fulton, "Go away! Sir! I don't think you are a liar, but I think you are a complete idiot! " Later, Fulton's invention patent was purchased by Britain. Since then, Britain has established its position as the world's maritime hegemon with its powerful navy, but France is far behind. Until the end of 1930s, Einstein brought up the old story again in his letter urging American President Roosevelt to develop an atomic bomb quickly: "Mr. President, if Napoleon had accepted your proposal of Fulton to build a steam engine warship in 1803, the world pattern today would not be like this!"
Napoleon rejected a great invention and lost an excellent opportunity to dominate the world simply because he couldn't stand the word "tall" inadvertently used by others. He lost an era because he was narrow-minded.
Intolerance (jealousy type)
Sun Bin and Pang Juan.
Sun Bin is a descendant of Sun Wu, a great strategist in the Spring and Autumn Period. He studied the art of war with Pang Juan.
Later, Wei Huiwang spent a lot of money to recruit world heroes. After meeting Wei Huiwang, Pang Juan told him a lot about Qiang Bing, a rich country. Wei Huiwang was overjoyed and made Pang Juan a general.
Pang Juan was familiar with the art of war and was good at fighting. He practices military forces in Wei every day. He started from several small countries nearby and won several battles in succession. Later, even Qi was defeated by him. From then on, Wei Huiwang trusted Pang Juan more.
However, Pang Juan knew that there was one person with higher talent than him, and that was Sun Bin. Pang Juan was so jealous of Sun Bin that he cheated him from Qi to Wei. On one occasion, Pang Juan framed Sun Bin for adultery with Qi in front of him. Wei Huiwang was very angry. He punished Sun Bin, tattooed his face and dug out two kneecaps, making him disabled.
Both Qi and Wei were relatively powerful countries during the Warring States Period. Sun Bin is the strategist of Qi, and Pang Juan is the general of Wei. The struggle between the two old classmates and the enemy is inevitable.
In 354 BC, Zhao attacked Weiguo and tried to force it to submit. Wei is a vassal state of Wei, so Wei sent Pang Juan to send troops to surround Handan, the capital of Zhao, on the pretext of protecting Wei. Zhao was in critical condition and sent someone to Qi for help. So he sent Tian Ji as commander-in-chief and Sun Bin as strategist to send troops to save Zhao.
Tian Ji intends to lead his troops straight to Handan to fight the main force of Wei Jun in order to relieve the siege of Zhao. Sun Bin said: "To untie the tangled rope, we must find out its knot calmly, and then untie it slowly, and we must not be impatient;" If you want to separate two people who are fighting, don't get involved yourself. Instead, we should avoid places where both sides are punching and find opportunities to punch one of the empty parts. "
The Qi army returned victorious and rewarded Sun Bin. Sun Bin besieged Wei to save Zhao and defeated Pang Juan for revenge. Later, "encircling Wei to save Zhao" became one of the 36 plans.
Since the battle of Guiling was defeated by Sun Bin, Pang Juan has been holding a grudge. In 342 BC, Wei joined forces with Zhao to attack South Korea, which surrendered to Qi. Qi Xuanwang sent Tian Ji and Sun Bin to save South Korea.
Sun Bin did the same thing again. Instead of saving Korea, he went directly to attack the capital girder of Wei. Pang Juan suffered a great loss from Sun Bin's "encircling Wei to save Zhao" last time, and this time he came prepared. When he heard that Sun Bin was attacking the girder, he quickly withdrew from South Korea and turned his head to the Qi army. Pang Juan is going to teach Sun Bin a lesson!
Wei Jun's beaten army fled, and the Qi army pursued him, killing and injuring more than 65,438+10,000 people.
Wei was defeated in the Battle of Guiling and the Battle of Maling, and its military strength was greatly weakened, and it never recovered. Qi's power became more and more powerful and became one of the best at that time.
Sun Bin forced Pang Juan to death and became famous all over the world.
Story:
In other words, Cao Cao was celebrating the completion of the copper tower, entertaining officials and hanging a Nishikawa brocade robe on a tree with an arrow target under it. He said, whoever can hit the target, I will return the jersey to him. Upon hearing this, the military commanders are all rubbing their hands and scrambling to show their martial arts.
After the general was shot, Cao Cao asked the civil servants to recite poems and write poems to record the completion of the bronze sparrow terrace. Cao Cao is in a good mood and is also reciting poems.
At this moment, suddenly an envoy came to see Hua Xin, the envoy of Soochow. After reading this chapter, Cao Cao consulted with the counselor to provoke Sun and Liu to annex each other. Zhou Yu is the satrap of Nanjun, Cheng Pu is the satrap of Jiangxia, and Hua Xin is the Shao Qing of Dali Temple.
Zhou Yu was worried about Zhuge Liang. After becoming the prefect of Nanjun, he wanted revenge, so he wrote to Sun Quan. Lu Su had no choice but to go to Jingzhou.
Although Zhou Yu is clever, Zhuge Liang is better. When Lu Su came to Jingzhou, Liu Bei cried according to the tricks of Kongming Sect. Kongming fanned the flames, saying that Jingzhou had been returned and there was no place to live. This touched the wound in Liu Bei's heart even more, and he cried even more sadly. At this time, Zhuge Liang said to Lu Su at an appropriate time, asking him to tell Sun Quan to postpone the recovery of Jingzhou.
Lu Su foolishly went back, and as a result, Zhou Yu said that you were played by Zhuge Liang again. Go back and tell Liu Bei that we will take a surprise attack on him. And whispered to Lu Su, I just used this as an excuse to catch him off guard. I went to Jingzhou in the name of taking Xichuan, so that I could take advantage of the situation to kill Liu Bei and seize Jingzhou.
So Lu Su came to Jingzhou again and said that Zhou Yu would lead his troops to capture Xichuan in exchange for Jingzhou. Liu Bei quickly thanked him and said that he was very grateful. When your army arrives, I will welcome you from a distance. Lu Su went back with a smile.
Therefore, Zhou Yu led an amphibious army of 50,000 to Jingzhou. When I arrived in Jingzhou, I saw two white flags on the city, and there was no one there. Zhou Yu docked the boat and led twenty cavalry to inspect the city gate.
Suddenly I heard a loud noise, and there were many knives and guns in the city. Zhaoyun stood on the rostrum and shouted that Zhuge Liang already knew this guy's plan, so he left me here waiting for you to take the lead. At this time, spies came to report that Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Huang Zhong and Wei Yan were killed on all sides. Zhou Yu was panting with anger and let out a cry. The old sore was cured. He fell off his horse with a plop, and the little potato quickly saved him.
After Zhou Yu was rescued from the boat, the sergeant came to report that Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang were drinking and singing on the top of the mountain in front. Now Zhou Yu is even more angry. She gnashed her teeth and said, You said I can't make a surprise attack, but I must get it. So he ordered the fleet to go up, and when they arrived in Baqiu, spies came to report that Liu Feng and Guan Ping had led the way and stopped the waterway.
Zhou Yu was about to go to war when Zhuge Liang suddenly sent a letter. Advise him not to take surprisingly. If Cao Jun uses his weakness to attack your lair, you are really finished. Zhou Yu listened to Zhuge Liang's cynicism and vomited blood to death. Before he died, he sighed and said, "I was born with it, why should I be clear!" " Then, he died after screaming several times, and he was only 36 years old when he died. ...
Liu Fei commented:
Jealousy is common in primary schools and even junior high schools. Jealousy refers to a psychological jealousy of those who are better than themselves in morality and talent. This is a kind of psychological imbalance, which often leads to various contradictions between people, and then affects the friendship between classmates and the harmony of various relationships.
Story 2:
There was a man who was very jealous of his neighbor. The happier his neighbors are, the less happy he is. The better his neighbor's life is, the more unhappy he is; Every day, I hope my neighbor is unlucky, or his house is on fire, or he has an incurable disease, or thunder and electricity rush into his house on rainy days and kill one or two people, or his son dies ... But whenever he sees his neighbor, he is always full of energy and smiles and greets him. At this time, his mind was even more unhappy. He wanted to throw explosives into his neighbor's yard and kill him, but he was afraid of repaying the kindness.
In this way, he tortured himself every day, his body became thinner and thinner, his chest was like a stone, and he couldn't eat or sleep.
Finally, one day, he decided to create some bad luck for his neighbors. That night, he bought a wreath at the wreath shop and secretly sent it to his neighbor's house. When he walked to the neighbor's door, he heard someone crying inside. At this time, the neighbor just came out of the house and saw him bring a wreath. He said, "Thank you for coming so soon! Thank you! " It turned out that the neighbor's father had just died. The man felt bored, said "hmm" twice and then came out.
The master in this story put himself in a mental hell out of jealousy and tortured himself. But torture to torture, but nothing.
