People in feudal society were superstitious, especially the emperor, who was afraid of being bewitched or cursing his early death by witchcraft. Therefore, in the Western Han Dynasty, Jiang Chong, a courtier, was afraid that the crown prince's succession would make his head fall to the ground because he had offended Herry Liu, Wang Wei. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty pursued immortality and superstition in his later years. Jiang Chong grasped the superstitious characteristics of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and said that when Emperor Wu was ill, the emperor's illness was caused by witchcraft. At that time, "witchcraft" was to take a puppet man, treat him as the object of frame-up, and stick a needle in him or something. Curse him for natural death or something. The ancients were very taboo, and these can be said to be zero tolerance. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was very angry at Jiang Chong's words and sent Jiang Chong to investigate.
In order to frame the prince, Jiang Chong and others broke into the palace of the queen and the prince in the name of search. Then find someone to take out the puppet man prepared in advance and frame the prince, which is a hundred arguments. The prince wanted to explain, but he couldn't see Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. In desperation, he had to let people around him take up arms and get rid of Jiang Chong. It was reported that the prince had rebelled. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent someone to inquire about the situation. The person sent was afraid of being killed and didn't ask why. They ran back and told Emperor Wu that the prince had rebelled. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had to mobilize the army to suppress it, but the prince could not escape. Later, he committed suicide by resisting arrest. This is the famous "curse of witchcraft" in history.
"Witchcraft" sounds creepy, but no one has seen this mysterious bug. It may not exist at all. However, for superstitious ancients, the wizard's pretending to be a ghost is already very awe and fear. Of course, the rulers of feudal society are eager to live forever, but some people curse each other's early death, even ordinary people will be unhappy, not to mention the emperor was cursed. So this kind of behavior was forbidden in ancient times. "Witchcraft" seems ethereal and has a feeling of fog, but it has harmed many people. It is this invisible "curse of witchcraft" that makes people panic and the world is in chaos. Therefore, in ancient times, rulers did not allow "witchcraft" to harm people.
