"The first hegemon in the Spring and Autumn Period is really extraordinary."

"Well, after Duke Qi Huan became the hegemon, he has been influencing a series of princes in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period."

"Yes, like the late Spring and Autumn Period of Wu and Yue, the two countries have always wanted to emulate the Duke of Qi Huan, go to the Central Plains to meet the princes, and become the overlord of the world."

The history of the Spring and Autumn Period of more than 2,000 years made everyone feel extremely unfamiliar, but after listening to it, they felt extremely excited.

Furthermore.

Since Qi Huan has dominated the past few decades, a group of students and the audience can see it.

History has always been passed down.

Qi Huan was the hegemon, and only then did a series of princes follow the hegemony.

What Duke Qi Huan did also influenced a series of other princes in later generations.

It can be said that among the series of overlords in the Spring and Autumn Period, Qi Huan Gong is recognized by all historians and historians. However, when Qi Huan was dominating the Spring and Autumn Period, his influence was not just hegemony. When the Qi State dominated the Spring and Autumn Period, a series of ideas and cultures about the Qi State were also spread one by one. For example, when Qi fought wars with various countries, the first battle was not a direct siege war, but a trade war. For example, the acquisition of weapons and the acquisition of live deer in Chu made other countries lose in the battle because of economic problems. ”

Secondly, Guan Zhong also implemented the monopoly of salt and iron in Qi State, which was also the earliest system of the Chinese nation to implement the monopoly of salt and iron. As for why this system is implemented, Guan Zhong believes that compared with the continuous collection of taxes from the people, the people have countless complaints. However, if the salt and iron were given to the imperial court for a monopoly and the selling price of the salt and iron was raised, the profit would be greater than that of direct expropriation, and there would be less public resentment. ”

In addition, Guan Zhong recognized at that time that consumption has a huge role in boosting the economy. He believes that if everyone does not consume, then goods are not easy to circulate. The lower the circulation of goods, the less the economy can develop. This idea is also related to the fact that Guan Zhong was a businessman in his early years, and this concept is still being promoted by us thousands of years later. Like in the modern economic environment, various countries and regions are constantly stimulating residents' consumption and driving up the economy. There is even a consumption upgrade in China...... and so on. ”

It is precisely because of the implementation of these measures by the State of Qi that the overall strength of the State of Qi has been greatly improved.

At the same time.

Even in the later period, when it comes to Qi and Linzi, countless vassal states think that it is the most prosperous place in China.

"Teacher Chen Fan, how long has Qi been dominant?"

Then.

One student raised his hand again to ask a question.

Chen Fan nodded.

This is exactly what he is going to talk about next: "The hegemony of the State of Qi lasted for a relatively long time, and probably during the reign of Duke Huan of Qi, the strength of the State of Qi was very strong. It's just that in Qi Huangong's later years, he began to become arrogant and arrogant, and he began to enjoy it. For this, he also reused four villains. Their names are Chang Zhiwu, Kai Fang, Ji Diao, and Yi Ya. ”

"Let's talk about the witch first."

These four people can be said to be very famous.

In his later years, Qi Huangong's body gradually aged, but he didn't want to accept this fact. So he reused Chang Zhiwu, who knew the magic of witchcraft, hoping to use the magic of witchcraft to make himself immortal, or to increase his lifespan. ”

"Kaifang is the prince of Weiguo, when Weiguo was defeated, Kaifang was sent to Qi as a proton. In order to show his loyalty to Qi Huangong, he has been inseparable from Qi Huangong for more than ten years. Even, when their parents died, they didn't go back to mourn. ”

"Another one named Ji Diao is even more awesome, Ji Diao was the first eunuch in the Spring and Autumn Period, or the first eunuch in China. You must know that at that time, he did not have the profession of eunuch. But in order to gain loyalty to Duke Qi Huan, he actually castrated himself personally. This made Qi Huan Gong very moved, and he kept letting Ji Diao accompany him. ”

The front of Chang Zhiwu and the prescription are fine.

Although he is a villain, at least he behaves normally.

But.

When Chen Fan talked about erection, everyone subconsciously felt cold in their crotch.

"Nima, I've emasculated myself, it's too scary."

"There were no eunuchs at that time, so castrating yourself with your own hands was very likely to end up under the conditions at that time."

"Well, this is not like there are so many eunuchs in later generations, there are more medical methods, and there are more ways to make yourself a eunuch."

In a word.

In any case, in order to show loyalty, to emasculate oneself is really not something that ordinary people can do.

But.

It's nothing.

Chen Fan said: "There is one more counterintuitive, this person is Yi Ya." Yi Ya was originally a chef, and his cooking skills were said to be the best in the Spring and Autumn period at that time. Some people commented on Yi Ya and said that the seasoning of Yi Ya is also, the sour is fertile with water, and the light is added to it, and the water and fire phase change easily, so the meal is not salty and light. That is, through the mixing and use of water, salt and fire, Yiya can make a delicious and delicious meal. At the same time, Yi Ya is also the first person in China to open a private restaurant. Therefore, he is also called the ancestor by the chefs. ”

Speaking of this, some students were puzzled and asked: "Teacher Chen Fan, Yi Ya is just a chef, and the king of a country likes food, so it seems that there should be nothing." ”

Chen Fan also nodded and said, "Yes, compared to some others, if you just like food, then there is naturally no problem." However, this Yi Ya wanted to win the favor of Duke Qi Huan. Once, Qi Huan Gong inadvertently said a sentence, he said that I have tasted everything in the world's food. ”

"I ......"

Chen Fan talked about this.

At this moment, everyone stood up excitedly.

Even.

Some people just fell out of their seats.

"Damn, I killed my youngest son to make a broth?"

"This, this, this ......"

"Nima, I feel creepy."

"It's even more terrifying than emasculating yourself."

Emasculating oneself is unacceptable to everyone.

But.

Kill your own son, and make soup out of your own son's flesh......

Everyone gasped.

Is this still human?

Even some girls didn't dare to listen anymore.

Chen Fan continued: "The next day, Duke Qi Huan had dinner again. But unlike before, this time, Qi Huan Gong drank a bowl of soup that was more delicious than before, and he had never eaten before. Qi Huan Gong was very happy, so he asked Yi Ya, what kind of meat do you use to make soup? Yi Ya cried and said, "This is a soup made from the human flesh of my 4-year-old son." ”

Once again, the crowd shuddered.

"It's just animal husbandry."

"I can't wait to kill this guy."

"It's the most disgusting historical figure I've ever heard."

The crowd was furious.

Although there have been too many killings and too many bloody events in thousands of years of history.

Some for the throne, the father kills the son, the son kills the father, the elder brother kills the younger brother, and the younger brother kills the elder brother......

This happens from time to time.

But everyone thinks that even so, it is not as terrifying as Yi Ya's use of his 4-year-old son to make broth.

This has transcended ethics, and as long as there is still a trace of humanity, it is unacceptable.

It's just that he was helpless, but Chen Fan shook his head: "Although at the beginning, Qi Huangong, like everyone, also felt nauseous. After all, he said that eating human flesh was just a casual remark, and he really didn't want to really eat human flesh. And even if you want to eat it, you won't eat it in this way. However, when he saw that Yi Ya actually killed his 4-year-old son for himself. Qi Huangong felt that Yi Ya was extremely loyal to him, but he trusted him more. ”

All right.

If it's just a matter of reusing villains, maybe it's nothing.

In history, countless kings have reused villains.

But.

When the reuse of villains is so important that even his own reason has completely changed and he has become less like a person.

Everyone knew that Qi Huangong's hegemony was about to disappear.

"In 645 BC, Guan Zhong became seriously ill. Qi Huan Gong was very worried, so he went to visit Guan Zhong. When visiting Guan Zhong, Qi Huan Gong asked, after you go, who can take the position? Qi Huan Gong thought about it, or Uncle Bao. Guan Zhong shook his head and said, although Uncle Bao is very capable, he is too good and evil, which is also too strong. He has no problem being a doctor, but if he is in phase, Uncle Bao is not suitable. ”

So Qi Huan Gong asked, how is Chang Zhiwu, and said that Chang Zhiwu can examine the principle of death and life, and can drive away the diseases that come down from ghosts, and such a person should be very capable. But Guan Zhong shook his head and said, death and life are predestined, and the diseases that ghosts descend on people are caused by mental loss. It is unreasonable for a king not to obey the mandate of heaven and keep his spirit, but to rely on the witch of the constant. Qi Huan Gong said again, Wei Gongzi has served me for fifteen years, and his father died and didn't go back to mourn, he should be able to take charge of the phase. Guan Zhong replied: How can human nature not love his father, and if his father dies, he can't bear to go back to mourn, what love will he have for the king? ”

Qi Huan Gong then asked, how about Ji Diao, he castrated himself so that he could serve me, such a person should be the most loyal. Guan Zhong said that human nature is selfish, if you don't even love your own body, how can you protect the king? Qi Huan Gong then asked again, how is Yi Ya. And said that Yi Ya actually killed his own son and cooked it into broth for me to eat for his own pleasure, such a person should be able to reuse. Guan Zhong replied. There are many ways to please the king, such as establishing meritorious deeds and governing well, but Yi Ya killed his own son in the most unreasonable way to please the king, which is not human nature. He could kill even his own son, so could he have any loyalty to the king? ”

I have to say.

Guan Zhong's eyes were very vicious, although the four villains tried countless ways to curry favor with Qi Huangong, Guan Zhong still saw through it at a glance.

Guan Zhong also said in the end that the four of them would not be good for the Qi State, but would have a lot of disadvantages. If Qi wants to continue to dominate the world, it has to stay away from these four villains. Qi Huan Gong felt that Guan Zhong made sense, so he drove the four of them away and never reused them. ”

At this time, everyone breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Fortunately, Qi Huan Gong has not completely lost his mind, and he will still listen to Guan Zhong."

"That's necessary, Guan Zhong has won the status of the overlord of the world for Duke Qi Huan, and his ability is unmatched. Qi Huan Gong naturally believed in Guan Zhong more than in these four people. ”

It's just that.

Just when everyone thought that Qi Huan Gong was still reasonable, Chen Fan said: "But unfortunately, less than a year after Qi Huan Gong made his decision. He felt extremely lonely and bored. He felt that without these four people by his side, he was in no mood for anything. In the end, Qi Huan Gong summoned these four people to his side. ”

The reversal came so quickly that everyone almost couldn't believe it.

"I'm grass, what's the situation, Qi Huan Gong is sick in the brain, kicked away the four people, and welcomed them back?"

"Did he get his brain into the water because he was so confused by the four of them?"

"No way, these four people are not beautiful women. I've only heard of a king being fascinated by beautiful women, how can there be anyone who is fascinated by four men? ”

There was some confusion among the people.

But Chen Fan said: "Although these four people are men, it stands to reason that he is playing with Qi Huangong, and they don't have such great magic." However, sometimes, once people are greedy for fun and then go back to normal life, it is extremely unbearable. Without these four people, Qi Huan felt that although the ministers of the court and the central government were very capable, they did not please him. Every time he went to court, he went against him everywhere and said something he didn't like. Moreover, he also had to deal with a series of political affairs, which made Qi Huan Gong extremely headache. ”

At this time, Qi Huan Gong remembered the time when there were four people. These four people can not only play with him. And these four people will also think of ways to tease Qi Huan to open his heart, although the four of them are villains, but in the eyes of Qi Huan, they are all talents, and they speak well, he likes them very much. In comparison, some of the other ministers are like wood, and they are not fun at all. ”

Everyone nodded at this explanation.

People are like that.

Once you get used to this kind of fun and go back to your normal work, there is a lot of discomfort.

If it was an ordinary person, he naturally couldn't help it.

But.

As a king, Duke Qi Huan felt that he had become the overlord of the Spring and Autumn Period.

He can do whatever he wants.

The vassal states can only look at the horse.

"Okay, I feel that Duke Qi Huan is finished, and Qi Guo will also have to lose hegemony."

"Well, with such a king, how can he be hegemonic all the time."

Everyone stared at Chen Fan.

Chen Fan nodded and said: "In the second year, Duke Qi Huan was seriously ill, and Yi Ya and Ji Diao and others supported the prince without loss, forcing the crown prince Zhao to go to the Song Dynasty, and the five princes of Qi had a civil war because of this. Yi Ya and others blocked the palace gate, falsely passed on the king's order, and no one was allowed to enter the palace. There are two palace women who are unprepared, and they enter the palace over the wall to visit Duke Qi Huan; Huan Cheng panicked with hunger and asked for food. The palace maid told Duke Qi Huan about the situation of Yi Ya, erecting chaos, blocking the palace gate, and unable to supply food, and Duke Huan regretted it too late, and was finally starved to death. ”

But even so, after Qi Huan Gong died, he did not come to collect his body. It wasn't until more than 60 days after the five princes competed for the throne that the next successor collected the body of Duke Qi Huan......"

The position of the overlord of Qi began to decline because of Qi Huan's reuse of 4 villains.

During the reign of Duke Qing of Qi, the Qi army was defeated by the Jin army in the Battle of Saddle. During the reign of Linggong, the State of Qi crusaded against the State of Lu because of the betrayal of the Alliance. The Jin State led Lu, Song, Wei, Zheng, Cao, Ju, Di, Teng, Xue, Qi, and Xiao Di a total of twelve princes to raise their divisions to attack Qi, and Qi Linggong personally led his division to resist the enemy, but was defeated by the coalition forces in Pingyin, and has been unable to dominate since then. The history of Qi hegemony in the Spring and Autumn Period came to an end......
