King Chu Huai is also a famous figure in the history of our country.

King Huai of Chu (?-296 BC), surnamed Mi, Xiong, Minghuai, Han nationality, monarch of Chu during the Warring States Period, son of King Chu Wei and father of King Xiang of Chu. Chu was originally a powerful country among the six countries and had strong national strength, but King Chu Huai was greedy, and repeatedly won the schemes of Zhang Yi, the prime minister of Qin, and the gains outweighed the losses. He is the son of King Chu Wei and the father of King Xiang of Chu, known as King Huai of Chu in history, reigned in 328 BC ~ 299 BC. It was once promoted by the six countries of Shandong as the longitudinal chief. He also took advantage of the civil strife in Vietnam, conquered the Yue country, and set up the county Jiangdong. However, he rejected the reformers, mistakenly believed the Qin lobbyist Zhang Yi, destroyed the alliance of Qi and Chu, and lost Qin and Qi successively, and lost the middle of Han. During his reign, Li Ling Zhi fainted, appointed Yin Zijiao and Zilan, and Jin Shang, the official doctor, favored Zheng Sleeve of the Southern Queen, and excluded Qu Yuan, which caused the state affairs to become unsuccessful. In 299 BC, he was detained and died in Qin. In 313 B.C., Zhang Yi of Qin deceived King Huai to cut off the exchange of Qi to take Qin's cession of 600 li of land in Shangyu. King Huai was angry, sent troops to attack Qin, was broken by Wei Zhang in Danyang, King Huai then gathered the troops of the whole country, launched an attack, and then suffered a heavy defeat in Lantian, and then in 311 BC Qin captured Zhaoling, three battles were defeated, and Chu went into decline. In 306 BC (the twenty-third year of King Huai of Chu), when the Chu State took advantage of the civil strife in Yue, it united with the Qi State to attack the Yue State, occupied the capital of the Yue State located in the former Wu State, and killed the Yue King Wuqiang. Conquer all the land from the original Wu State to Zhejiang, and set Jiangdong as a county. As a result, the Yue Kingdom fell apart, and the remnants fled to the homeland of the Yue Kingdom, where the sons of various ethnic groups competed for power, some claiming the title of king, some claiming the title of king, and living on the coast of the southern part of the Yangtze River. In 299 BC, the state of Qin captured eight cities of the state of Chu, and the king of Qin Zhao and King Huai met at Wuguan. King Huai did not listen to the advice of Zhao Sui and Qu Yuan, and decided to go to Wuguan, but was detained by the Qin State. The king of Qin coerced King Huai to cede the land. King Huai refused. During the detention of King Huai, the Chu people made the crown prince the king, and it was the king of Chu Qingxiang. In 297 BC, King Huai of Chu fled, and the Qin people blocked the road to Chu. King Huai fled to the realm of Zhao. Zhao Guo did not dare to take him in. King Huai attempted to flee to Wei, but was captured by Qin's pursuers. In 296 BC, King Huai died of illness in the state of Qin, and the state of Qin returned the body to the state of Chu. "Chu people are pitiful, like sad relatives".

"Historical Records of the Chu Family": In the eleventh year, King Wei died, and his son Huai Wang Xiong Huaili. Wei Wen Chu mourned, cut Chu, and took my mountain. In the first year of King Huai, Zhang Yi was the first minister of King Qin Hui. In four years, King Qin Hui was crowned king for the first time. In six years, Chu made the generals of Zhaoyang of Zhuguo attack Wei, broke it in Xiangling, and obtained Bayi. He also moved his troops to attack Qi, and the king of Qi suffered. Chen Zhen was Qin's envoy to Qi, and the king of Qi said: "What are you doing for it?" Chen Zhen said: "Don't worry, the king, please give an order." That is, he went to see the Zhaoyang army, and said: "I heard the law of the Chu State, why is it so valuable to break the army and kill the generals?" Zhaoyang said: "Its official is the Shangzhu State, and he is the lord of the Lord." Chen Zhen said: "Is it more valuable than this?" Zhaoyang said: "Ling Yin." Chen Zhen said: "Today's monarch has become Ling Yin, and this national crown is above." Please be reprimanded. If a person leaves a person who gives up a drink, he says: 'Several people drink this, not enough to drink it all, so please draw the ground for the snake, and the snake will drink it alone.' One said, 'My snake will come first.' He lifted up his wine and said, 'I can do enough.' And then the adults took the wine and drank it, saying, 'The serpent has no feet, but now it is the foot, and it is not the snake.'" 'Now the monarch is attacking Wei and breaking the army and killing the generals, and the merit is great, and the crown cannot be added. Now they have moved their troops and attacked Qi, and they won the battle, and the officials did not add to this; if they were not victorious, they would die and be killed, and they would be destroyed in Chu: this is the saying that the snake is enough. If you don't lead the troops to Deqi, this is a full technique. Zhaoyang said: "Good." "Lead the troops away. Yan and Han Jun were first kings. Qin envoy Zhang Yi met with Chu, Qi, and Wei, and allied with Sang. In the eleventh year, Su Qin attacked Qin from the six countries of Shandong, and King Huai of Chu was the elder. To Hangu Pass, Qin sent troops to attack the six countries, and the soldiers of the six countries were all led back, and Qi became independent. In the twelfth year, King Qi defeated the Zhao and Wei armies, and Qin also defeated Han and competed with Qi. In the sixteenth year, Qin wanted to destroy Qi, and Chu and Qi were close to each other, and King Qin Hui was afflicted, so that Zhang Yi was exempted from the phase, so that Zhang Yi saw the king of Chu in the south, and said that the king of Chu said: "The king of Yiyi said that there is no first king, although the place of Yi is even the original one of the gates, there is no first king." There is no king of Qi who is hated by the king of Yiyi, and there is no king of Qi who is hated by Yi. And the king and the king are not the kings of the city, and the lingyi is not allowed to be the king. Wang Wei Yi retreat and Qi Qi, now the envoy from Yi Xi to take the place where Qin divided Chu Shang in 600 li, if so, Qi is weak. It is the weak Qi in the north, the West Germany in Qin, and the private businessmen in the rich, and this plan has three benefits. "Huai Wang Dayue, is to put the seal in Zhang Yi, the day and the wine, declaring "I have regained the place where I am in business". The ministers all congratulated, and Chen Zhen hung alone. King Huai said: "Why?" Chen Zhen said: "Qin Zhi is the king, and the king has Qi." If the land is not available today, it is Chu Guye. Fu Qin, why is it a lonely country, it will be light. And first out of the ground and then absolutely Qi, then Qin Ji will not do. If you first stop Qi and then blame the ground, you will see Zhang Yi being deceived. Seeing that Zhang Yi was bullied, the king will complain. The grievance is that the west starts from Qin, and the north is never in harmony. From Qin in the west and in the north, the troops of the two countries will come. Hang your son. "The king of Chu listened to it, because he made a general receive a fief in the west. Zhang Yi went to Qin, drunk and fell into the car, saying that he was sick for three months, and the land was unavailable. The king of Chu said: "Yi thinks that I am still evil?" is to make the warrior Song Yibei humiliate the king of Qi. The king of Qi was furious, and folded Chu Fu and joined Qin. Qin and Qi intersected, Zhang Yi was the beginning of the dynasty, and said to General Chu: "Why don't you accept the land? From a certain to a certain place, it is vast for six miles." General Chu said: "The reason why the minister sees the order is six hundred miles, but he does not hear six miles." "That is, to repay the king. King Huai was furious, and Xingshi would attack Qin. Chen Zhen said again: "It is not a plan to cut down Qin. It is better to bribe a famous capital, and cut down Qi with it, it is I who died in Qin, and I was compensated by Qi, and my country can still be complete. Now the king has been abused by Qi and bullied Qin, and it is the soldiers of the world who came from the friendship of Qin and Qi, and the country will be greatly injured. The king of Chu did not listen, so he refused to make peace with Qin and sent troops west to attack Qin. Qin also sent troops to attack him. In the spring of the seventeenth year, he fought Danyang with Qin, Qin defeated our army, beheaded 80,000 armor soldiers, captured more than 70 people such as our general Qu Kuo and General Feng Hou Chou, and then took the county of Hanzhong. King Chu Huai was furious, but he learned that the national soldiers attacked Qin again and fought in Lantian. Defeat of the Chu army. Han and Wei heard of Chu's predicament, but the south attacked Chu, as far as Deng. Chu Wen is to lead the troops back. In the eighteenth year, the Qin envoy made an appointment with Chu and divided half of the Han to Chu. The king of Chu said: "I got Zhang Yi, but I didn't get the land." "When Zhang Yi heard it, please let it go. The king of Qin said: "Chu is willing to be in the son, what is it?" Zhang Yi said: "The minister is good at his influence on Jin Shang, and Jin Shang can get things from the king of Chu, Xingji Zheng Sleeve." There are no followers to what they say. And the ritual used to make a negative Chu to negotiate the covenant. Today, the war between Qin and Chu is evil, and the ministers are incomprehensible to Xie Chu. And the king is here, Chu should not dare to take the ceremony. Sincerity kills the country for the sake of the country. The original of the minister. "Yi then made Chu. Reach. King Huai is gone. Therefore, Zhang Yi was imprisoned and wanted to kill him. Yi was private with Jin Shang, and Jin Shang asked King Huai to say: "Detain Zhang Yi." The king of Qin will be angry. When the world sees Chu without Qin, it will be light. Also known as Mrs. Zheng Sleeve said: "The king of Qin loves Zhang Yi very much, and the king wants to kill him, so he will bribe Chu in the six counties of the mediocre land, hire the king of Chu with a beauty, and take the good singer in the palace as his wife." The king of Chu is heavy, the Qin woman will be expensive, and the lady will be reprimanded. Madame did not speak for herself. Zheng sleeve said that Zhang Yi came out of the king. Yi out, King Huai met Yi because of kindness, Yi Yin said that the King of Chu rebelled against the covenant and married Qin, and made an appointment to marry. Zhang Yi has gone, Qu Yuan envoy came from Qi, and admonished the king and said: "Why don't you punish Zhang Yi?" It's the age of King Qin Hui. In the past 20 years, the king of Qi wanted to be long-term, and the evil Chu and Qin were combined, so that the king of Chu said: "The widow suffers from Chu and does not notice the honorable name." Now King Hui of Qin died, King Wu Li, Zhang Yi went to Wei, Zhu Liji, Gongsun Yanyong, and Chu Shi Qin. Fu Yu is good at Han, and Gongsun Yan is good at Wei; Chu must be Qin, Han and Wei are afraid, because the two seek to be in Qin, then Yan and Zhao are also good at Qin. The four kingdoms fought for Qin, and Chu was the county. Why didn't the king work with the widows to collect Han, Wei, Yan, and Zhao, and in order to respect the Zhou family, and to settle the people with the soldiers, so that the world would be satisfied? The king led the princes to fight together, and the Qin was broken. Wang took the land of Wuguan, Shu and Han, and was rich in Wu and Yue, and was good at the benefits of the rivers and seas, Han and Wei cut the party, and the West Bohan Valley was strong in the millions. And the king bullied Zhang Yi, died in Hanzhong, and filed Lantian, and the world was angry on behalf of the king. Now I want to do Qin first! "The king of Chu already wanted to make peace with Yu Qin, and when he saw the book of the king of Qi, he hesitated and ordered his ministers. The ministers either spoke with Qin, or said to listen to the same. Zhao Ju said: "Although the king takes the land in the east in Yue, it is not enough to brush the shame, and he must take the land in Qin, and then it is enough to brush the shame of the princes." The king is not as good as Shen Shanqi and Han Yizhong, if so, then the king is Han and Qi in order to seek the land. Qin broke Han Yiyang, and Han Yu reverted to Qin, the tomb of the first king was in Pingyang, and Qin Zhiwu went to seventy miles, so he was especially afraid of Qin. Otherwise, Qin attacked Sanchuan, Zhao attacked Shangdang, Chu attacked Hewai, and Han would die. Chu Zhi saved Han, but he couldn't make Han immortal, but Chu Ye, who saved Han. Han has been defeated in Qin, with rivers and mountains as a stopper, and the report is as good as Chu Hou, and the minister thinks that the king will be sick. Qi Zhi's belief in Han is also Qi Gongziyi. Han has been defeated in Qin, and the king is very good, so that he can use Qi and Han to get sick, and Qi and Han are heavy, and his lord Fu dares to abandon the disease. Now it is beneficial to the weight of Chu, and the Lizi will speak of Qin, and the invasion of Chu will be restored. So Huai Wang Xu Zhi did not meet Qin, but joined Qi to be good to Han. Twenty-four years, double and merge Qin. At the beginning of the establishment of King Qin Zhao, he bribed Chu generously. Chu went to welcome the woman. In the twenty-fifth year, King Huai entered the alliance with King Qin Zhao, about the Yellow Thorn. Qin Fu and Chu Shangyong. In the twenty-sixth year, Qi, Han, and Wei were subordinate to Qin for Chu, and the three kingdoms jointly attacked Chu. Chu sent the prince into Qin and asked for help. Qin Nai sent Keqing to rescue Chu, and the Three Kingdoms led troops. In the twenty-seventh year, Doctor Qin had a private fight with the Prince of Chu, and the Prince of Chu killed him and died. In the twenty-eighth year, Qin Nai attacked Chu with Qi, Han, and Wei, killed Chu general Tang Yi, and took me Chongqiu. In the twenty-ninth year, Qin regained the attack on Chu, broke Chu, and the Chu army lost 20,000 people, killing my general Jing Que. The fear of the king is to make the prince hostage to Qi in order to seek peace. In thirty years, Qin reconquered Chu and took eight cities. King Qin Zhao's posthumous Chu Wang Shu said: "The first widow and the king are about brothers, allied with Huangthorn, the prince is the hostage, and the concubine is also." The prince's tomb killed the important ministers of the widow, and died without thanks, and the widow was so angry that the soldiers invaded the king's side. Now I heard that the king ordered the prince to confront Qi in order to seek peace. The widow and Chu bordered the border, so it was a marriage, and they had been on a blind date for a long time. Now that Qin Chu is not relieved, there is no way to order the princes. The widow and the king will meet each other, meet each other, form an alliance and go, and the original of the widow is also. Dare to smell the deacon. "When King Chu Huai saw the book of King Qin, he suffered. If you want to go, you are afraid of being deceived, and if you want to go, you are afraid of Qin's anger. Zhao Ju said: "The king can't do it, but send troops to guard his ears." Qin Tiger Wolf is not credible, and has the heart of a prince. Prince Lan persuaded Wang Xing, saying: "What is the heart of Qin!" So he went to meet King Qin Zhao. King Zhao fraudulently ordered a general to ambush Wuguan, called the King of Qin. When the king of Chu arrived, he closed the military pass, and then went west to Xianyang, and the court Zhangtai, such as the ministers, did not pay tribute to Kang. King Chu Huai was furious. Regret does not need to be revealed. Qin stayed in the king of Chu, and wanted to cut off the witch and the county in Qianzhong. The king of Chu wants to ally with Qin, and Qin wants to get the land first. The king of Chu said angrily: "Qin deceived me and forced me to take the land!" Qin Yin stayed. The minister of Chu suffered, but he conspired and said: "My king must not return in Qin, and he must cut the land, and the prince is hostage to Qi, and Qi and Qin conspire, then Chu has no country." "But he who desires to establish a prince in the kingdom. Zhao Ju said: "The king and the crown prince are trapped in the princes, and now they have set up their concubines with the king's order, which is not appropriate." "It's a deception. King Qi said to him: "Why don't you keep the prince to seek the Huaibei of Chu." He said, "No." King Yingzhong, it is I who hold the void and do injustice in the world. Or, "No." King Yingzhong, because he and his new king said, 'Give me the next kingdom, I will kill the prince for the king.' Otherwise. will co-exist with the three countries'. Then the eastern kingdom will be gained. "The king of Qi used his plan to return to the prince of Chu. The crown prince is horizontally and established as the king, and he is the king of Qingxiang. It was told to Qin: "Lai Sheji is a god." The state has a king. "In the first year of King Heng of Xiangxiang, Qin wanted to conceive the king and could not get the land, the king of Chu Li responded to Qin, and the king of Qin Zhao was angry, and sent troops to attack Chu, defeated the Chu army, beheaded 50,000, and analyzed fifteen cities. In the second year, King Huai of Chu fled and returned, Qin Juezhi, covering Chu Dao, and fearing King Huai, but took Zhao from the middle road to seek return. Lord Zhao's father is in the generation, and his son King Hui is the first to stand, doing royal things, fearing, not daring to enter the king of Chu. The king of Chu wanted to go to Wei, but Qin chased after him, so he and Qin made a revenge on Qin. Huai Wang then became ill. In the third year of King Qingxiang, King Huai died in Qin, and Qin returned to his funeral in Chu. The people of Chu are pitied, like sad relatives. The princes are not directly Qin. Qin Chujue.

King Huai of Chu was an indecisive person, and in the struggle between the two great powers of Qi and Qin in the Central Plains, he was attacked by Qi and Qin. In the twentieth year of King Huai of Chu, King Xuan of Qi wrote a letter to persuade Chu to make peace with Qin, when Qin was already the second year of King Wu of Qin, Zhang Yi was dead, and King Huai followed the advice of Ling Yin Zhaosui to turn his back on Qin and Qin. In the twenty-fourth year of King Huai, King Qin Zhao ascended the throne. King Qin Zhao's mother was a Chu person, and he advocated reconciliation with Chu, and Qin gave a generous gift to the King of Chu, and King Huai turned his back on Qi to reconcile with Qin, and went to Qin to welcome his daughter, thus forming a good marriage. In the twenty-fifth year of King Huai, King Huai of Chu and King Zhao of Qin met in Huangjiao (now northeast of Xinye County, Henan), and Qin returned the occupied Shangyong land to Chu. The alliance of Chu and Qin posed a threat to Qi, so Qi united with Han and Wei to attack Chu. Han and Wei Ben and Qin 'Lianheng' dealt with Qi and Chu, but Qin still attacked them while making peace with Han and Wei, such as King Wu of Qin in the third year (308 BC) sent troops to capture Yiyang, a large county in Korea (now west of Yiyang, Henan), and killed 60,000 Han soldiers. In the fourth year of King Qin Zhao, he captured Wusui (southeast of present-day Yuanqu County, Shanxi) in Korea. In the first year of King Qin Zhao, he attacked Weipishi (now west of Hejin County, Shanxi) and was not captured. In the fourth year of King Qin Zhao, Qin captured Puban (now Puzhou Town, southeast of Yongji County, Shanxi), Jinyang (now west of Ruicheng County, Shanxi), and Fengling (now southwest of Ruicheng County, Shanxi) of Wei. So Han and Wei threw themselves into Qi. Roughly before the tenth year of King Xuan of Qi (310 BC), Tian Wen of Qi succeeded his father Tian Ying to attack Xue's title, known as Meng Weijun or Xue Gong, and became the minister of state, holding the power of Qi. Han and Wei's fall to Qi was not only related to Qin's advance, but also related to Meng Weijun's strategy of joining forces. After Meng Weijun surrendered to Qi in Han and Wei, he launched an attack on Qin's ally, Chu. In the nineteenth year of King Xuan of Qi, the combined forces of Qi, Wei and Han attacked Fangcheng of Chu State, defeated the Chu army at Chuisha, killed the Chu general Tang Mi (or Tang Fu), and lost all the land north of Chu Guowan (now Nanyang, Henan) and Ye (now Ye County, Henan) and was divided between Han and Wei. Wandi is a rich place, the gateway of the Chu State to the north into the Central Plains and an important strategic place for long-term operation, and its loss has blocked the road for the Chu State to the north. Chu was defeated by the attack of the Three Kingdoms, so he sent the prince to Qi as a hostage and surrendered to Qi. The submission of Chu to Qi was what Qin was most worried about, so Qin sent troops to attack Chu in the 29th year of King Huai of Chu, killing 20,000 Chu troops, and Chu general Jing Que was killed. The following year, Qin attacked Chu again and occupied eight cities. At the same time, King Qin Zhao sent a letter to King Huai of Chu, asking King Huai to meet at Wuguan to forge friendship between the two countries. After receiving the letter, King Huai felt that it was difficult to deal with it, and wanted to go to meet him, for fear of being deceived again, and if he did not go, he was afraid that the Qin State would be angry and suffer a more serious blow. Ling Yin Zhaosui advocated not going, thinking that the Qin State could not be trusted, it had the ambition of annexing the princes, and we only needed to increase the strength of the defense. King Huai's son Zilan strongly persuaded him to go, believing that he should not cut off the favor of the Qin people, so King Huai of Chu decided to go. King Qin Zhao did not go to Wuguan at all, and only sent a general to ambush at Wuguan, pretending to be the king of Qin. As soon as King Huai of Chu entered Wuguan, the Qin army closed the gate, abducted King Huai to Xianyang, met King Qin Zhao in Zhangtai, and did not receive him with the courtesy of a monarch, but treated him as a minister. King Huai was furious, and regretted not listening to Zhaosui's words. The state of Qin put King Huai under house arrest and threatened him to cede Wu and Qianzhong Prefecture to Qin in order to tie up the friendship between the two countries. King Chu Huai was also ready to agree to an alliance with Qin, but King Qin Zhao insisted on ceding the land first and then forming an alliance. King Huai was very angry and said that Qin deceived me and forced me to give him land, so he resolutely refused to give it, and Qin locked him up in Qin and refused to return to China. King Huai of Chu was imprisoned in Qin, and the minister of the country then took back the crown prince from Qi and established him as king, that is, King Qingxiang of Chu, and informed Qin that there was a new king in Chu. In the first year of King Xiang of Chu (298 B.C.), King Qin Zhao saw that King Huai did not give him land, and a new king was established in Chu, so he sent troops to attack Chu, defeated the Chu army, killed 50,000 Chu troops, and captured 15 cities in the land of Zhechuan, Henan Province. The following year, King Huai fled from Qin and was discovered by Qin, blocking the road to Chu. King Huai was frightened and fled from other ways to the state of Zhao. King Hui of Zhao ascended the throne at a young age, and his father, King Wuling of Zhao, did not return to the land, and King Hui did not dare to let King Huai enter the country. King Huai planned to flee to Wei, but was caught up by the Qin people, who abducted him to Qin. King Chu Huai was tortured in this way, and fell ill when he arrived in Qin, and he died in Qin in the third year of King Qingxiang. When the Qin State returned King Huai's body to the Chu State, everyone in the Chu State felt grief, and the relationship between Qin and Chu was completely broken. (To be continued......)
