When you open the "Historical Records", you can always feel between the lines that magnificent era of peaks and mountains. Heroes create the times, or the times create heroes, no one has ever said clearly. In that Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, which was constantly fighting, there was no ** certificate. Because, during this period, there were too many heroes and too short time.

In 1951, in the eastern suburbs of Changsha, Hunan, China, on the banks of the Liuyang River.

Mr. Xia Nai, who was the director of the Institute of Archaeology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and was recognized as an academician of the highest academic research institutions in Britain, Germany, the United States and other countries, and was known as the "Academician of the Seven Kingdoms", conducted research near Wulipai in the eastern suburbs of Changsha and determined that there should be a Han Dynasty tomb under this inconspicuous mound. Limited to technical conditions and many factors, it was not possible to further explore.

Twenty years have passed.

In response to the call for "combat readiness," the 366 Hospital of the Hunan Provincial Military Region planned to build an underground air defense hospital on two hillsides near this place. When the steel brazing was drilling, an unknown component of choking gas overflowed, and it ignited in a dark blue color. Hou Liang, editor-in-chief of "Hunan Provincial Chronicles and Cultural Relics" and deputy director of the Hunan Provincial Museum, took the lead in receiving the news, and affirmed Xia Nai's judgment that year, quickly reported to the relevant departments, and began to guide the local people.

On December 30, 1971, the application report for the exploration of the Han Dynasty burial area was submitted to the State Council, and two weeks later, on January 14, 1972, the report was approved by the State Council. Some university students in Changsha, local garrisons, archaeological teams, and researchers from the Hunan Provincial Museum began to excavate. After passing through a robbery hole about 17 meters deep, it was found that the common material of ancient tombs, white plaster, was discovered, and after continuing to excavate, the world-famous Han Dynasty tomb group - Mawangdui was discovered.

In the No. 3 burial area of Mawangdui, precious documents were found. After research and sorting, it was divided into three parts and 27 chapters, and was named "Warring States Zonghengjia Letter". The content of this book has sparked a huge controversy over the historical materials recorded in the "Historical Records: The Biography of Zhang Yilie". Moreover, an almost subversive conclusion was drawn: the rumored fact that Su Qin brought Zhang Yi into Qin was actually fictional.

Su Qin has said that the king of Zhao has to meet and obey his relatives, but he is afraid that Qin's attack on the princes, and after defeating the contract, he will not be used in Qin, but it makes people feel a little Zhang Yi said: "Zishi and Su Qinshan are good, now Qin has been the road, why not swim to seek the origin of the son?" Zhang Yi then went to Zhao and asked to see Su Qin. Su Qinnai admonished his subordinates not to get through, and made those who could not go for a few days. I have seen it, sit under the hall, and give the servants and concubines food. Therefore, the number of people said: "With the material of the son, it is self-inflicted and humiliated." I'd rather not be able to speak and be rich and noble, and the son is not enough to receive. "Thank you. Zhang Yizhi also came, thinking that he was an old man, seeking benefits, but seeing humiliation, anger, thinking that the princes could not do anything, and Qin alone could suffer Zhao, so he entered Qin.

- "Historical Records"

At first glance, Su Qin's good intentions and Zhang Yi's awakening made these two politicians who almost single-handedly changed the course of Chinese history talk about by later generations with an extremely dramatic and storytelling image, however, when opening the unearthed documents, it can be seen that Su Qin's era was after Zhang Yi, that is, the era of King Yan Zhao. The one who confronted Zhang Yi's Lianheng at the same time was the rhino head, that is, Gongsun Yan.

From the research and data of Chinese historical chronology, the period when Su and Qin really developed should be the period of King Zhaoxiang of Qin, while Zhang Yi was mainly active in the political arena during the period of King Huiwen of Qin. In other words, when Zhang Yi emerged in the political arena, Su Qin and the king of Qin in his period had not yet been born.

In other words, the fact that Su Qin provoked Zhang Yi to enter Qin is not supported by historical data from the perspective of time. Under the Spring and Autumn penmanship of Ma Qian of Taishi Company, Su Qin became an outstanding diplomat who was scheming, strategic, and scheming for the world's great plans. Zhang Yi, on the other hand, has become a political lobbyist with a treacherous and treacherous personality.

Judging from the cause of cooperation advocated by Su Qin, there are rare inconsistencies in the description of the entire event in the "Historical Records", which is difficult to justify. Even if the passage of time obscures the truth of history, the benefits should be eternal. Knowing that Zhang Yi had great talents, and knowing that the diplomatic strategy advocated by Zhang Yi was based on the idea of Lian Heng, how could Su Qin deliberately design a talent that was completely contrary to his plan and secretly arrange to send him to a powerful enemy country to sabotage his plan?

In this way, Zhang Yi and Su Qin were emotionally combined by Taishi Gong and later generations of literati, after all, both of them were outstanding strategists who stood at the pinnacle of vertical and horizontal theory. There is no doubt that both of them have played a powerful role in their respective diplomatic fields that can change history. However, if it is really strictly analyzed from the corresponding materials such as surviving documents and unearthed cultural relics, Zhang Yi and Su Qin are by no means as described in the novel-like penmanship in the "Historical Records", and Su Qin brought Zhang Yi with him. The truth of history should be Zhang Yi's era, which is almost more than 20 years earlier than Su Qin. Therefore, it must not be Su Qin who really promoted Zhang Yi.

As for the relationship between Su Qin and Zhang Yi, it can actually be summed up in one word: a pair of longitudinal and horizontal families who are in a similar era and have the same governing ideas, but have chosen different monarchs.

Su Qin, who entrusted the feelings of Taishi Gong, became a real sage, even if he was assassinated and died, he could use his life to tease the princes of all walks of life again, but Zhang Yi became an opponent designed by Taishi Gong and other literati with the glorious image of his feelings, cunning and treacherous, and reversed.

In fact, the two of them maintained the hopes and dreams of Tai Shi Gong, and also bore the sorrow and bitterness of Tai Shi Gong, so the two wise men who actually did not have much intersection stood at the peak of the times and stirred up the storm on their respective battlefields.

Su Qin, a native of Luoyang in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty (now Luoyangdong, Henan) during the Warring States Period, the word Jizi. He calls himself an "enterprising minister" and "an enterprising one who no longer has the norm" ("Warring States Zonghengjia Shu" 5). In his early years, he lobbied the princes. Later, he was a confidant of King Yan Zhao, and was ordered to make Qi engage in anti-intermediary activities, so that Qi was tired of foreign wars, so as to create a situation of "weak Yan enemy strong Qi". In the last years of King Qi, he served as the prime minister of Qi and persuaded King Xiang not to call Qin the Emperor of the East and West, so that Qin was also called Emperor Di. Together with Zhao Fengyangjun and Li Dui, he made an appointment with Yan, Qi, Han, Zhao, and Wei to attack Qin. Zhao Feng was Wu Anjun. As a result, Qin returned the captured Wei Diwen (now southwest of Wen County, Henan), Yi (now south of Jiyuan City, Henan), and Gaoping (now Xiyi South, Jiyuan City, Henan), and returned the princes and Fu Yu of Zhao Land that they had captured. Hou Yan attacked Le Yi in a big way, and his anti-intermittent activities were exposed, and he was killed by the car.
