Qin Shihuang wrote to Lu Buwei only to make him move to Shu. Why was he so frightened that he committed suicide by drinking poison?

According to the "Historical Biography of Lu Buwei", Lu Buwei was implicated in the " 嫪毐 chaos" and was dismissed from the position of prime minister.

Later, Ying Zheng wrote a letter to Lu Buwei, which read:

What is your contribution to Qin? Qin Fengjun in Henan, eats 100,000 households; why is the king relative to Qin? Known as Zhongfu. He and his family moved to Shu!

After seeing these thirty words, Lu Buwei realized the true meaning behind Yingzheng, was terrified, and finally chose to commit suicide by taking poison.

So, what is the meaning behind the sentence Qin Shihuang ?

Lu Buwei's situation: Ying Zheng originally wanted to "extract from law"

Lu Buwei in Qin State What kind of situation is the interpretation of Fu in the history? It's not the same.

In fact, whether it is Ying Yan Ren or Ying Zheng, Lu Buwei is extremely jealous.

When Ying Yiren was in the state of Zhao, Qin was still under the rule of and king of Qin Zhaoxiang . The country was strong and stable inside and outside. Lu Buwei's design led Ying Yiren to return to the State of Qin. King Qin Zhaoxiang died and King Qin Xiaowen ascended the throne. Lu Buwei was still a merchant.

But the weird thing is that King Xiaowen died within three days of his ascension, and Ying Yiren succeeded him for Qin Zhuangxiang King . However, what is even more bizarre is that Ying Ying Ren died after three years of reign, and Ying Zheng came to the throne.

King Qin changed a bit frequently, and whether it was the death of King Xiaowen or the death of King Zhuang Xiang,The biggest beneficiary is Lu Buwei.

Therefore, some people suspect that the death of the two Qin kings is related to Lu Buwei.

Actually, there is no evidence for this suspicion, but such a thing does not require evidence, because Lu Buwei can indeed pose a threat to King Qin. Yin Jian is not far from the "three divisions of Jin" and "Tian clan usurping Qi". This is why both Yingyiren and Yingzheng have deep suspicions of Lu Buwei after they came to the throne.

Yingzheng’s birth mother, Empress Dowager Zhao, was originally given by Lu Buwei to Yingyiren. The two revived their old feelings and jointly controlled the government, which caused the Qin State to fall behind. The that was supposed to be implemented in the year Yingzheng was 20 years old was crowned Being pro-government was delayed for two years.

However, no matter how you say it, Ying Zheng was crowned pro-government in the end, so Lu Buwei’s threat has actually been reduced a lot. Considering his contributions to Qin for more than a decade, and his hard work, Ying Zheng did not force him too much. .

However, an unexpected "Lao Chaotic" changed the trajectory of all this.

The exposure of the two sons of the Empress Dowager Zhao and Lai Nao can be described as shocking. In a panic, Lai Nao forged the seals of the Queen Dowager and the King Qin, causing chaos in the New Year Palace. This battle caught Ying Zheng off guard, and even the eunuchs in the palace joined the battle sequence and finally settled down.

And Lai Lu was dedicated to Queen Mother Zhao by Lu Buwei to escape.

Lu Buwei and the Empress Dowager Zhao had rekindled their old relationship, which was hidden from Yingzheng. But as Ying Zheng got older, Lu Buwei was also afraid, so he hired a Da Yin Ren Lai to replace herself, and the Queen Mother Zhao let go of Lu Buwei.

But now that the affair has been exposed, Lu Buwei and Empress Dowager Zhao's incidents naturally cannot withstand investigations. This is also the real reason why he was dismissed.

However,The follow-up treatment of this matter was actually not too serious for Lu Buwei.

嫪毐 car cracked, extermination of the three tribes; a group of officials were more than 20 heads of the lords; more than 4,000 families were convicted and relocated and reprimanded; the two sons of 嫪毐 and the Queen Mother were executed , Queen Mother Zhao was moved out of Xianyang; 27 officials who dared to advise on this matter were all killed.

However, Lu Buwei is just giving up, and there is no punishment for moving out of Xianyang.

It can be seen that Ying Zheng still has gratitude for Lu Buwei, and did not put his crimes on the surface. Firstly, it involved the Queen Mother’s family ugliness, and secondly, he also considered Lu Buwei’s hard work. Wai Kai En".

However, things reversed again.

Lu Buwei understands Ying Zheng’s worries

Qin Shihuang took office, and Qi and Zhao sent envoys to congratulate him. Among them, Qi made Mao Jiao successfully lose the name of “benevolence and filial piety”. Qin's reason to dominate the world was to persuade Qin Shihuang to welcome the Queen Mother Zhao back.

Since the Queen Mother Zhao is coming back, Lu Buwei cannot stay in Xianyang.

Ying Zheng ordered Lu Buwei to go back to his Henan province. Unexpectedly, when Lu Buwei left, he actually caused scholars, wanderers and envoys of various countries to bid farewell.

And at this time, a rumor spread gradually.

In other words, King Kaolie of Chu has no heirs, Chunshen Jun Huang Xie is very anxious and has collected many women for him. And in Zhao State, a person named Liyuan ,Originally wanted to offer his sister's female ring to the King of Chu, but worried that King Chu's body had a problem and her sister would not be able to give birth to an heir and fell out of favor, so she dedicated the female ring to Chun Shenjun.

After Huang Xiena received the female ring, he succeeded in making him pregnant, and Li Yuan, the female ring, and Chunshenjun planned to dedicate the female ring to the king of Chu. In this way, the female ring successfully gave birth to a baby boy for the king of Chu. This is the Prince Chu.

This means that Emperor Chunshen succeeded in stealing the country and his son became the future king of Chu.

However, Li Yuan, Nv Huan and others were worried that Emperor Chunshen might be powerful, so they assassinated him at the funeral of King Chu, so that the followers of Chunshen were scattered to the nations, and this matter spread.

This year happened to be the ninth year of the First Emperor. When the Maji Rebellion broke out, Lu Buwei gave up.

You can see that Huang Xie, Emperor Chunshen, presented a female ring to King Chu Kaolie, and the plot of Lu Buwei sending Qin Zhuangxiang Wang Ying Yiren Zhao Ji is very similar, so the rumors about Yingzheng life experience changed Got more and more sensitive.

Lai Lu once claimed to be Qin Shihuang's "false father", which means stepfather, and Lu Buwei is Ying Zheng's "second father". In this comparison, things become more subtle.

Yingzheng, who has just experienced the "Lady's Rebellion", has to worry about it.

A "castration" can not be a big thing, but Lu Buwei is different. He has been in business for more than ten years and has deep roots in Qin. In addition, scholars of the world, warriors, and envoys of other countries all respect him very much.

If he wants to initiate a mutiny, then the historical events of "three divisions of Jin" and "Tian clan usurping Qi" may not be repeated.

Only then appeared the "30 characters" that Ying Zheng gave to Lu Buwei. Why did contribute to Qin? What is it for Qin? Everyone knows well,But precisely because of this, Lu Buwei's hidden dangers to Qin became more and more serious.

Therefore, Yingzheng ordered that Lu Buwei's family no longer had to go to their feudal estate, but to go to Bashu instead.

Lu Buwei saw Ying Zheng's fear of himself, and knew in his heart that if he did not die, then the punishment of the Lu family would not stop, and it would eventually be the end of the genocide.

Therefore, Lu Buwei was frightened and could only commit suicide by drinking poison.

In fact, after Lu Buwei's death, there is no record about his family. From this point of view, it should have been preserved.
