According to Zuo Zhuan, his father was the monarch of Zheng and his mother was Wu Jiang, the daughter of Shen Hou. In the 14th year of Zheng Wugong (757 BC), pregnant Wujiang was about to give birth. One day, Wujiang was in labor with abdominal pain and abnormal fetal position. The midwife in the palace was so scared that cold sweat came out. Thanks to the experience of the midwife, the child was finally born, but the child was born after the foot, so it was named Birthday. Wujiang stepped into the gate of hell and almost lost his life when he gave birth. So he was very disgusted with the life where he was born and never liked him.
In the seventeenth year (754 BC), Wujiang gave birth to a young son named Duan Shu, who loved him very much because his son was born naturally.
Wujiang wanted Duan Shu to inherit the throne, so he often took pains to praise Duan Shu in front of Zheng Wugong and wanted Wu Gong to make him a prince. However, Zheng Wugong is a very independent monarch. He didn't listen to Wujiang, but made his eldest son a prince as usual. Only * * * City was given to Uncle Duan, who was called Uncle Duan at that time.
Later, Wu Gong died, and Sheng Mao became a monarch, sealing Zheng Zhuanggong. Wujiang's attempt to establish Duan Shu as a monarch failed, and he was greatly dissatisfied. Uncle Duan is even more jealous, and the mother and son try their best to steal all kinds of rights. In the first year of Zhuang (743 BC), the military commander asked Zhuang Gong to take Zhiyi (now Sishui Town, Xingyang City, Zhengzhou City) as an uncle's fief. Zhuang Gong knew that the fief was a famous military stronghold, how could it be given to Duan Shu, but he could not directly refuse his mother, so he inferred that his father had an imperial decree and the fief was not allowed. Wujiang was angry, but he didn't give up. He also asked Zhuang Gong to call the capital Shu Duan. Zhuanggong could not bear to refuse his mother again, so he agreed.
When Uncle Duan arrived in Beijing, he was called Uncle Beijing. Relying on his mother's support, Duan Shu didn't think about respecting the monarch and governing the people, but recruited warriors, reinforced the city walls, hoarded food and grass, trained and expanded his power.
Uncle Duan's unusual behavior in Beijing caused people's discussion.
One night, Duke Zhuang secretly summoned his son Lu in the bedroom. Zhuang Gong said:? Although Duan is rampant, it is not a rebellion. If he is guilty at this time, his mother will definitely come forward to stop it. At that time, not only will things not be solved, but he will also bear the name of unfilial. So we can only take action when he rebelled. ? Hearing this, the son Lu said, since the master knows that he is going to rebel, why not give it a try first? So he presented a plan to Zhuang Gong.
The next day, the people in the court said that the master was going out of town. When Chiang Kai-shek was informed, he immediately decided to hold a ceremony on the fifth day of May and wrote a secret letter informing him. Unexpectedly, the messenger was stopped by the ambush of childe Lu. After reading the letter, the landlord rewrote the envelope and sent someone to give it to Uncle Duan. Duan Shu immediately wrote a reply and agreed to attack Zheng Du on May 5th. The reply was also given to Zhuang Gong. After reading the letter, the landlord took some troops to Lianyan. Childe Lu dispatched more than 200 chariots, ambushed near the capital, and sent a group of soldiers with high martial arts to sneak into the capital, posing as businessmen.
On the fifth day of May, Duan led all the trained soldiers and horses out of Beijing. At this time, the soldiers who sneaked into the capital immediately seized the gate and set fire to the city. Childe Lu easily occupied the capital. After entering Beijing, Lu, the son of Lu, became a daughter, detailing the benevolence of Zhuang Gong, and at the same time not doing anything that harms the interests of the people. The people began to support Zhuang Gong.
Duan saw that the capital was destroyed, so he couldn't attack the capital, let alone the capital, so he had to settle down outside the city. Most of the soldiers in Duan are from Beijing. When they learned that their families were safe, they never wanted to work for Duan again. In a few days, they almost ran away.
Duan saw that the morale of the army changed greatly and was occupied by Zhuang Gong. * * * People in the city didn't support him, so they became desperate and drew their swords and committed suicide. Zhuanggong found Duan Shu's body in the chaos, holding Duan Shu's body and crying, saying, this is not what I want, this is not my intention. ? People found a letter from the Jiang family to Zhuang Gong in Duan's luggage. Duke Zhuang resented his mother's urging Duan Shu to kill each other, so he put this letter and Duan Shu's reply together and gave it to Chiang Kai-shek Ji Zhong, and asked to leave the capital and go to (now northwest of Linying, Henan). The landlord swore: I will never see her again until I die. ?
When Chiang Kai-shek read this letter and learned that the story was exposed and his youngest son died, he felt very remorseful and went to Yingdi according to Ji Zhong's arrangement.
But Wujiang was his mother after all, and Zheng Zhuanggong was a dutiful son, so he soon regretted it. It's been a long time since I saw my mother. It's very sad. He often thinks that his brother is dead and his mother has no relatives. How can he stand it? On the one hand, he misses his mother, on the other hand, he doesn't want to break his oath. He is the king of a country. How can he change his words casually? So, he built a high earthen platform. When he missed his mother, he stepped onto the stage and looked at the direction of the city. Later, people called this rammer platform? See the mother platform? .
Uncle Ying Kao, the local official of the British Emperor, saw the anxiety of Zhuang Gong and decided to solve this problem for Zhuang Gong, so he asked to see Zhuang Gong. Zhuang Gong kept him for dinner and gave him mutton. Uncle Yingkao wrapped the good meat of the leg of lamb and put it aside respectfully. Zhuang Gong was puzzled and asked him why. Uncle yingkao said:? The family is poor, and the old mother often can't eat meat. My master gave me such good meat. How can I bear to eat by myself? Hearing this, Zhuang Gong remembered that he hadn't seen his mother for a long time, and his tears fell unconsciously. Uncle Yingkao pretended not to know anything and asked him why he was sad. Zhuang Gong told Uncle Ying Kao about his ambivalence.
Uncle yingkao said:? I have a way to solve this problem satisfactorily. What people call a grave is an underground spring, and not only the dead can reach the grave. If someone digs a tunnel and builds an underground palace where the spring water is dug, you go there and ask her out. Isn't this filial piety without breaking the oath?
Zhuanggong was very happy, so he gave it to Uncle Yingkao, who soon got things done, so he took his style to the underground palace and asked Zhuanggong to visit his mother. Duke Zhuang came to the underground palace, knelt in front of his mother and said, My child is unfilial and hasn't served his mother for so long. Please forgive her. ? Jiang was ashamed and moved. She helped Zhuang Gong up, and both mother and son wept bitterly. Zhuang Gong said with emotion:? In the big tunnel, the fun is also harmonious. ? Since then, the relationship between mother and child has become more tense.
