As the prime minister of the Qin Dynasty, Lu Buwei was inevitably jealous of Qin Shihuang, and the ending was miserable.


Lu Buwei is a strange man in Chinese history. His strategy and eloquence are among the top Chinese historical figures. With the strength of one person, he contributed to his lifetime prosperity.

As far as strategy is concerned, Lu Buwei not only has a deep and far-reaching plan, but also a comprehensive plan that can be considered broadly. He has four steps to plan:

When he sees the son of a stranger, he feels that he is a stranger. A good investment project that can win the entire future, so he convinced the foreigner to follow his command.


If this "wonder" is to be promoted, and this investment is transformed from risk to huge profit, it still requires hard work and laborious work. He must not only arrange to pick up people, but also arrange to release people. He calculated the potential and urgent needs of Mrs. Huayang and his younger brothers, so that Mrs. Huayang could run for foreigners for his own benefit, and made Qin start to dig out to Zhao Guo. .

Then he lobbied the king of to persuade the king of Zhao to send him to another person with long-term interests.

What happens after the person is picked up? In order to get to the next level, he put some effort on the foreigner, so that Qin king finally made the foreigner the prince. Lu Buwei has worked hard, cleverly arranged, managed well, and progressed step by step between the two countries. He is really a first-class planner and designer. Completing his transaction is actually a big project. It is huge and complicated to mobilize the victim, the Qin State to receive people, the Zhao State to release people, the Queen to recognize the son, the King Qin to establish a prince, and so on.

Later, he went to the prime minister of Qin, which was extremely prosperous.

So how did such a man with great talents die?


died of suicide.

In history, Lu Buwei committed suicide by drinking poison.

King Qin wanted to kill Lu Buwei, the king of the kingdom, but because he served the king and had a lot of credit, and there were many guest speakers who interceded for him, King Qin could not bear to punish Lu Buwei.

In October 237 BC ( Qin Wangzheng ten years), Lu Buwei was relieved of his Xiangbang post. After the Qi people 茂焦 persuaded King Qin, King Qin went to Yongdi to meet the Queen Mother Zhao and made her return to Xianyang, but he sent Lu Buwei out of the capital to the fiefdom of Henan.

More than a year later, guests and envoys from various princes and countries came to greet Lu Buwei. King Qin was afraid that he would launch a rebellion, so he wrote to Lu Buwei and said: "What credit do you do to the State of Qin? The State of Qin grants you to Henan and eats 100,000 households. What blood relationship do you have with King Qin? You are called Zhongfu. You and All his family members moved to Shu to live!"

Lu Buwei thought that his dignity had been harmed, thinking that he had been gradually being persecuted, and fearing that he would be killed in the future, he drank poison and committed suicide.

Throughout history, it can be found that the rise of people like Lu Buwei is often related to the decline of imperial power. The dead are no longer in the minority.

After all, a companion is like a companion tiger. Who can really walk into the emperor's heart and know what the emperor thinks?
