During the Qin and Han Dynasties, Yin-Yang, Five Elements and Immortal Magic prevailed and became a widely accepted belief in society.
& gt& gt Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was influenced by witchcraft culture since childhood and believed in the existence of ghosts and gods. When he became emperor, he became the king of the world, with supreme power and inexhaustible wealth, but he could not control the aging of his life.
& gt& gt Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was obsessed with fairies in order to make himself live forever. He met countless wizards and alchemists in his life, but he was always deceived, but he still believed it.
& gt& gt BC 12 1 year, Li Furen, the favorite concubine of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, died of illness. Therefore, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty couldn't sleep at night and missed Li Furen very much.
& gt& gt There happened to be an alchemist named Li Shaoweng in the State of Qi, who claimed to have the magic power to attract ghosts and gods, so that ghosts could meet strangers. This man came to Beijing to see Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty.
& gt& gt This Li Shaoweng was originally a young man, but he told Emperor Wu that he was over 200 years old.
& gt& gt Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was overjoyed to see such a strange man, so he asked Li Shaoweng to invite Li Furen back.
& gt& gt Li Shaoweng then asked for Li Furen's clothes. In a very quiet room, he used today's projection principle to cast a phantom of Li Furen on the curtain.
& gt& gt Although Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty didn't talk to Li Furen, he saw Li Furen, whom he missed very much, in a trance.
& gt& gt From then on, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty thought that Li Shaoweng really had magical powers, so he worshipped Li Shaoweng as General Wencheng. Li Shaoweng was loved by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Talk to him about immortals all day and express his desire to see immortals.
& gt& gt Li Shaoweng lied to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and said, "If your majesty wants to associate with immortals, he must make use of palaces, bedding and so on. It looks like a sacred object.
& gt& gt Emperor Wudi really painted colorful clouds and fairy cars on the roofs, columns and walls of the palace, and embroidered such things on his clothes, but after waiting for more than a year, there was no sign of immortals.
& gt& gt Li Shaoweng saw that the scam was about to be exposed, so he thought of another trick to deceive Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
& gt& gt On one occasion, Li Shaoweng accompanied Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to Ganquan Palace and saw someone holding a cow. Li Shaoweng pointed to the cow and said to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Your Majesty, there is a wonderful book in this cow.
& gt& gt Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was dubious, so he ordered people to gut the cow. Sure enough, he found a silk book with some incomprehensible argot. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty thought it was very strange, so he took it in his hand and studied it carefully.
& gt& gt Fortunately, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was not so confused as to be ignorant. After identification, it was found to be Li Shaoweng's handwriting. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty immediately realized that Li Shaoweng had tampered with it, so he killed Li Shaoweng.
& gt& gt Although Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty once deceived Li Shaoweng and became the laughingstock of the whole world, his fascination with immortal magic did not stop.
& gt& gt Not long after, another alchemist named Luan Da sought audience with Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
& gt& gt He said to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty: I used to go back and forth at sea and met the immortal An Qisheng. I worshipped him as a teacher and learned some magic. I can use magic to turn stone into gold, block the Yellow River and refine the medicine of immortality.
& gt& gt Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty actually believed such nonsense. He immediately named Luan Dawei General Wuli, General Shi Tian, General Di and General Datong. The princes of Beijing will meet Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty, treat Luan Da so well, and prepare generous gifts.
& gt& gt However, Luan Da didn't seem to want these titles, so Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty made him the Hou of Le Tong and married the princess to him.
& gt& gt However, after more than a year, Luan Da failed to block the estuary and extract gold, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty realized that he had been cheated again. Cut the guy who dares to risk his life to be a ghost in the city.
& gt& gt However, the tragedy of Emperor Wu's infatuation with immortals and ghosts did not end here, and then the disaster of witchcraft occurred.
Witchcraft is a superstitious activity in ancient times, which means that witches use witchcraft curses to frame people.
& gt& gt One night in 92 BC, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty closed his eyes in his palace.
& gt& gt In the dim light, I saw a burly man in black, carrying a sword, breaking into the palace and trying to assassinate him.
& gt& gt Emperor Wu quickly got up and shouted: There is an assassin! Take it off! The palace guards heard the sound, but they didn't see any signs. Several maids who waited beside Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty didn't see the assassin at all. They knew it was the dream of the old emperor in a trance, but no one dared to tell the truth.
& gt& gt Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty never gave up. He searched for eleven days in succession in the palace and the capital, but there was no result.
& gt& gt Emperor Wu thought: I clearly saw the assassin enter the palace, why didn't I find it? Is it a ghost? & gt& gt At this moment, Wei Ruyun's nephew Sun Jingsheng embezzled19 million yuan of military expenses by virtue of his special relationship with Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and was arrested and imprisoned after the incident.
& gt& gt At that time, the government was chasing a ranger, Zhu Anshi, and Gong Sunhe wrote to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, demanding that Gong Sunjingsheng arrest Zhu Anshi for atonement.
& gt& gt Unexpectedly, Zhu Anshi wrote to Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty in prison, exposing Gong Jingsheng's adultery with Yang Shi Princess, the daughter of Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty, and buried a puppet in Ganquan Palace where Emperor Wu passed to curse him.
& gt& gt Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was furious when he learned about it. He executed Gong Sunhe and his son and wiped out nine families. Wei Ruyun's daughters, Princess Zhu Yi and Yang Shi Princess, were also killed.
& gt& gt Since the witchcraft case of GongSunHe and his son happened, there has been a wind to expose witchcraft from the palace, the imperial court and the people.
& gt& gt Jiang Chong is one of those cruel officials who took the opportunity to make waves.
& gt& gt This Jiang Chong was once a guest of Su Jing, Zhao Haoqi, and one of his sisters married Zhao Taizi Dan. But later Jiang Chong offended Zhao Taizi Dan and fled to Chang 'an to report the privacy of Taizi Dan and gain the trust of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
& gt& gt Therefore, Jiang Chong was appointed as an embroiderer, responsible for supervising the social order in Beijing and its surrounding areas. On one occasion, Jiang Chong found the retainer driving in the emperor's driveway, and they detained their horses and chariots on the spot.
& gt& gt Chu Jun Liu Yuxin sent someone to plead with him, but Jiang Chong ignored him, so he became hostile to the Prince.
& gt& gt After the witch hunting incident, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty ordered Jiang Chong to search for witch hunters. Jiang Chong thought that he had offended the Prince and was afraid of revenge in the future, so he used the opportunity of hunting witches to frame the Prince.
& gt& gt He first reported to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty that there was a strange smell in the palace, and then searched the palace of Wei Ruyun from the palace of the unpopular concubine. It is said that the puppet man was found in the womb.
& gt& gt When Chu Jun Liu Yuxin learned about it, he was very afraid that he could not defend himself, so he took the initiative to send troops to rebel and failed. Wei Ruyun committed suicide in the palace. After Chu Jun Liu Yuxin fled to Huxian County, he was forced to commit suicide because of the pursuit of officers and men.
& gt& gt Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty regretted it at this time, but his beloved son had passed away and there was nothing he could do. Fortunately, it didn't take long for Emperor Wu to find out that all this was done by Jiang Chong, a little man, so he cut him down.
& gt& gt After that, because Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was obsessed with fairies for many years, a peasant uprising finally broke out in the Han Dynasty. At this time, Emperor Wu suddenly woke up and ordered the wizards and immortals who lived by pretending to be ghosts to be fired.
& gt& gt Comments: >> Like all successful emperors, the glory of his career brought great self-satisfaction and self-realization, and also brought great conceit to Emperor Wu himself, thus laying a hidden danger for the subsequent small storm.
