As mentioned above, Qin State quickly established its advantage through victory in several wars. Other powerful countries have begun to be left behind by Qin State. Not surprisingly, Qin State will soon unify the country. Then there are always unfavorable things happening that delay Qin's progress. That is Duke Xiao of Qin passed away, and his son Duke Huiwen succeeded to the throne.
Not long after Duke Huiwen of Qin took the throne, he killed Wei Marting. It turns out that when Wei Yang first arrived in Qin, he implemented new laws and policies vigorously. There were many laws that didn't work. Wei Yang told Qin Xiaogong that the reason why the new law didn't work was that the monarch's relatives were causing trouble. If he wanted to implement the new law smoothly, he had to start with the prince. The prince couldn't bear the ink punishment of stabbing his face. , his master would be punished instead. In this way, the new law was implemented smoothly, and the Qin State was governed very well, but from then on, the seeds of hatred were planted in the heart of the prince.
Wei Yang's behavior offended the prince and the monarch's relatives. After Qin Xiaogong passed away, Wei Yang also knew that his situation was very dangerous and tried to escape. The prince who ascended the throne then convicted Wei Yang of rebellion. It was really a crime of wanting to kill him. This minister who made great contributions to the reform and progress of the Qin State was eventually cut into pieces by Qin Huiwenjun five horses. Showed to the public in the capital city of Xianyang.
There are people in every dynasty and every generation who sacrificed their lives for the reform. We will not judge whether they were right or wrong. Facts will prove everything. There are always people who hinder the reform. Although Wei Yang died, the progress of history never stopped. Later generations also proved that Shang Yang's reform was the fundamental reason for the strong rise of Qin.
