Chapter 16: The Cold Country
readx;? However, the ministers Wu Luo, Bo Yin, Xiong Fu, Yu Yu and others stood up to pour cold water on him, and they thought that Han Xun was leading the king to the evil road, which was the road to the destruction of the country, and the future was very terrible. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info They suggested that Hou Yi remove Han Xun from office and punish him. Hou Yi shook his head again and again, saying that you think too much, I treat Han Xun better than my own son, how can he harm me? He did not listen to everyone's advice, he still reused Han Xun, and was still intoxicated with the pleasures of the palace, and those old ministers who had been with him for decades were all cold-hearted, and they sighed and said: "There is a poor country that is over!"
Han Xun was very proud at this time, he had coveted the throne for a long time, and everything he did was to prepare for the seizure of the power of the poor clan. He respectfully called Hou Yi his father-in-law on the surface, but secretly called him an old thing, an old pervert.
In the sixteenth year of Hou Yi, that is, in 2178 BC, Hou Yi ignored the opposition of his ministers, worshiped Han Xun as the prime minister, and let him take charge of the government. At this time, Han Xun was 25 years old.
In the seventeenth year of Hou Yi, that is, in 2177 BC, Hou Yi raised many beauties in the palace for his lewd pleasure and was not satisfied, and at the age of fifty-three, he even accepted an eighteen-year-old girl as a concubine. This girl's name is Chunhu, and she is a talented and beautiful girl.
Once, Hou Yi went out on a tour in a carriage and saw this charming woman in the wild. He immediately ordered someone to investigate the girl's family history, and learned that she was the daughter of a prince, named Chunhu, so he forcibly recruited her into the palace and accepted her as a young concubine. Chunhu was very dissatisfied with this marriage, but he was an extremely smart woman, and on the surface, he was obedient to Hou Yi, but secretly he was ready to kill him. So, she secretly seduced Han Xun and soon had an affair with him. Han Xun already had a wife and a concubine at this time, and his wife also gave birth to two sons for him. He is not greedy for women, but he has a soft spot for pure foxes. After the two fornicated, they secretly plotted to kill Hou Yi and seize his throne. In order to achieve his goal, Chunhu pretended to be very affectionate to Hou Yi and took the opportunity to coax him to entrust Han Xun with a heavy responsibility.
Han Xun conspired with Chunhu, and within three years, he successively killed Hou Yi's cronies and ministers Wu Luo, Bo Yin, Xiong Fu, Yu Yu and others.
In the nineteenth year of Hou Yi (BC2175), almost all the ministers of the court became Han Xun's sworn friends. Han Xun thought that the time was ripe, so he planned to find an opportunity to kill Hou Yi.
Although he has already grasped the power, Yi's archery skills are too strong, and there are guards loyal to him around him, so Han Xun does not dare to expose his ambitions.
If you want to get rid of Yi, you can only find the people around him, and the people around him can only be compared with Xiaomeng's archery skills, and he is Yi's apprentice, Yi will not be wary.
éč (pĆ”), a person who was good at archery in the Xia Dynasty. Yi, the one who is blind, and the one who is good at shooting in the world. See "Xunzi Zheng Lun". Xiao Meng learned to shoot at Yi and did his best to do the way of Yi. Thinking about the world, only Yi is better than himself, so he kills Yi. See Mencius: Lilou.
He was a mountain hunter. Hou (Wang) Yi found that he was sensitive and brave, so he tried his best to teach him archery.
Later, the master and apprentice shot their arrows almost as well, and people all over the world compared the master and apprentice when they talked about archery. At this time, as a teacher, Yi was very happy to bring out a good student, but as a student, Xiao Meng was not happy to have a teacher with higher skills and fame than him.
This thought was caught by Han Xun, and then Han Xun persuaded him that if he wanted to dominate the arrow world, he had to get rid of the teacher, and the people of the world only obeyed Yi's archery, if Xiao Meng could get rid of Yi, then the world would also be Xiao Meng, and claimed that he would definitely support Xiao Meng as the king.
Xiao Meng began to look for the right time to assassinate Yi. Until one time, Yi went out hunting again, chasing the prey into the woods, and the guards were all on guard outside the forest. At this time, Xiao Meng hid in the woods and cast a dark arrow at Yi. An arrow swished in, Yi heard the sound of the bowstring, hurriedly pulled the bow and released the arrow, the two arrows met in the air, and landed together after becoming the word "human". This was repeated ten times, and only the Yi quiver of ten arrows was empty, and Xiao Meng still had an arrow on the bowstring, and the target was right at Yi's throat. Yizhong's arrow fell off his horse, and he was secretly happy that his conspiracy had succeeded, thinking that the teacher would definitely die, and was ready to take down the arrow. As soon as he arrived in front of the teacher, he saw the teacher spit out an arrow from his mouth, and said to the student with a smile: "You don't even know the 'rodting method', you have to study hard!" At this time, Yi thought that Xiao Meng was testing archery with himself.
Xiao Meng couldn't believe that the teacher actually bit the arrow he shot, and he was so frightened that his face turned dirty and he knelt on the ground and begged for mercy. Yi forgave Xiao Meng, of course, the main reason is that Yi is very confident, and no one is his opponent in the archery test, so he doesn't think that Xiao Meng is harmful to his mind.
Then Yi turned around and walked out of the forest, with his back to Xiao Meng, who thought that if Yi went back and told others about this matter, someone would definitely attack him, and even if Yi didn't care, there would be people who wanted to put him to death, and even Yi would not be able to forgive himself. Therefore, seeing the opportunity, he decided to kill people and kill his mouth, picked up a peach stick, and took advantage of Hou Yi's unpreparedness to beat his mentor to death.
Hou Yi's death caused a lot of discussion among future generations. Although Xiao Meng is a shameless villain, Hou Yi is also considered to only teach students technology and not morality, does not know people, and is self-defeating, and bears unshirkable responsibility for his unjust death. It can be seen that it is difficult to be a man, and it is difficult to be a man. Hou Yi turned out to be a difficult person, he didn't teach students to say that you were conservative, and taught apprentices to kill the master but said that you deserved it. Of course, Hou Yi did not die in vain, and the Emperor of Heaven still sealed him a Zongbu God. And Xiaomeng is still despised by the world, which tells us that whether it is choosing friends or being apprentices, the first choice is morality.
Xiao Meng asked Han Xun to ask him to support him to inherit the throne, but Han Xun had already bribed the courtiers, but he was only taken by Yi's prestige, so he didn't dare to act rashly, and now Yi is dead, and Xiao Meng is just one of Yi's cronies, and he has no prestige among the courtiers, so he was executed for the crime of Xiao Meng Chajun.
In BC2175, in the eighth year of King Xia, and in the nineteenth year of Hou Yi, Yi died at the age of 55.
In 2174 BC, Han Xun Li, at this time Han Xun was 29 years old, and he still had a poor country, with Poor Stone as the capital, but this force was no longer the Yi tribe but the local indigenous forces near Poor Stone, headed by the Birming clan (Han State). Therefore, in history, in order to distinguish it from the poor country established by the previous Yi, it was called the cold country. Establish a pure fox as a concubine. Take the year of Bingwu as the first year of Hanxun.
After Han Xun ascended the throne, he brutally slaughtered the poor clan people (the Yi tribe who moved to the poor stone). He instructed his men to chop Hou Yi's corpse into a meat puree, add highly toxic drugs to cook meat cakes, and then give them to Hou Yi's people to eat. Yi's son couldn't bear to eat and was hacked to death with a knife. The situation is horrible.
Some of the poor people fled to the outlying areas for fear of being killed, and those who remained also incognito and took refuge in other princes. Since then, there are no more poor people in the Central Plains.
