Although this man is a god of war, there are three stains in his life that are hard to erase, but why did Sima Qian call him a villain?

As the three schools were divided into Jin, the Spring and Autumn Period officially ended, followed by the situation of the Warring States for hegemony. In the early Warring States period, wei ren Wuqi was a famous political and military strategist. Wei Wuzu, founded by Wu Qi, helped Wei establish its hegemony in the early Warring States period. However, Wu Qi, known as the God of War, has three indelible stains in his life. Even Sima Qian, the Taishi Duke, thought Wuqi was an unfaithful and unjust villain. What's going on here?

Wu Qi was born in 440 BC. He is now from Cao County, Shandong Province. According to historical records, Wuqi's family was well-off and laid a solid foundation from an early age. In order to be reused, Wuqi made connections everywhere and spent a lot of money and lost everything. In 4 12 BC, Wuqi was finally reused by Lumugong. Because Wuqi was not a noble family, Lumugong was suspicious of Wu. Three years later, Wu Qi left Lu for Wei. After coming to Wei, Wu Qi helped to practice a set of Wei Wuzu. At the same time, Wuqi also carried out a deep-seated reform of Wei. In the early Warring States, Wei officially became one of the hegemons, and even the powerful Qin and Chu States were afraid of Wei.

Later, Wu Qi left Wei State and came to Chu State. He even carried out reforms, completely changed the past in a short time and made the country prosperous. In 38 1 BC, Moring, the king of Chu, died of illness, because Wuqi had no foundation in Chu, and his reforms harmed the interests of many conservative Chu nobles. The mighty God of War was hunted by other nobles and finally died. In Wuqi's life, he won many victories. According to "Historical Records", "He is as well-fed as the lowest foot soldiers. Lie down without sitting, walk without riding, and wrap yourself up to win food. If a pawn is sick and gangrenous, it is sucking. " How dare I be as honest as a foot soldier at the bottom, lying without a seat, walking without riding, with many green fruits? "The meaning of this sentence is that Wuqi can share joys and sorrows with the lowest soldiers. Even if an ordinary soldier has a poisonous sore, he is willing to take medicine to treat it.

At the same time, Wu Qi is not only martial, but also has a particularly advanced rule of law thought, which can guide Wei and Chu to carry out political reforms. During the Chu and Wei Dynasties, Wu Qi's talent should be second to none. Then there is such a famous Warring States star Wu Qi. Why was Sima Qian denounced? It turns out that there are three things in Wuqi that are difficult to understand and can be regarded as stains. First of all, Wu Qi spent a lot of real money in his early years, hoping to be an official in the DPRK, but he was not appreciated. At this time, more than 30 neighbors laughed at Wu Qi as a black sheep, and then Wu Qi became furious and killed all the more than 30 neighbors who laughed at him.

Second,

Wu Qi left his hometown to study Confucianism in Shandong. When Wuqi's mother died, because Wuqi's ambition had not been realized, he didn't go home to attend the funeral, which made Wuqi's master sever the relationship with him. Finally, when Wuqi worked for Lumugong, Qi attacked Lu, and Lumugong wanted to appoint Wuqi as a general, but because Wuqi's wife was from Qi, it was difficult to make up his mind at the moment. Wu Qi immediately drew his sword and killed his wife to prove his innocence. These three things have become an indelible stain in Wuqi's life.

Maybe Wuqi is not a heinous person, but I think Wuqi can ignore his wife and mother for his own selfishness. Sima Qian didn't think highly of him, and even accused him of being a perfidious person. However, it was a great waste not to recommend talents like Wu Qi in the early Warring States period. It can only be said that Wuqi wanted to succeed too much, but abandoned the most important family and feelings.

Presumably, Wu Qi, who is on his deathbed, is also dejected. He has been in a high position all his life, but no one can talk to him. We young people should be cautious about Xiu De. It is good to be self-motivated. Success is important, but it is equally important to cherish the people around you.
