In which country did Wu Qi change the law, and the reason why Wu Qi failed to change the law

The state of Chu The monarch who enabled the Wu Qi reform law was. King Chu mourns.

First of all, in ancient China, the society was ruled by man, and the people were in power, and the people died in government, and the main reason why social reform was carried out was that the monarch had the desire to change the law and become strong. If the monarch is conservative and does not support reform, reformers alone will not help. It is a pity that King Chu mourned, who supported Wu Qi, died early, but what was the attitude of the newly appointed king?

Still unknown. Because of the change of reputation to mourn the death of the king in Chu, Wu Qi was killed by the noble brother. After Wu Qi's death, the reform failed, and the state of Chu returned to its original state.

Similarly, in the Qin State, as soon as Qin Xiaogong, who supported Shang Ying, died, Shang Ying's political enemies also immediately counterattacked, and Shang Ying was torn apart. In short, in the Chinese dynasties, whether or not to implement reforms was crucial to the attitude of the supreme ruler who held real power, and if they lacked determination and courage, the people below were no longer active.

<> "The Story of Wu Qi's Reform."

The Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period were a period of great change in Chinese history, and it was also a famous period of reform in Chinese history. In order to achieve the goal of enriching the country and strengthening the army and dominating the princes, various countries have implemented changes, such as the change of the child in the Zheng State, the change of Li Kui in the Wei State, the change of the Shang Yang in the Qin State, the change of Wu Qi in the Chu State, etc., these reformers, in addition to the good death of the child, Li Kui's life experience is unknown because it is not recorded in the historical books, and Wu Qi and Shang Yang have all ended miserably because of the reform and burning judgment.

Wu Qi, a patriot, once served as a general of Lu and later as a general of Wei, and has made many miraculous achievements. Wei Wenhou appointed him as the Western River Guard to defend Qin and Korea. After the death of Marquis Wen of Wei, he was framed by Wan Tong and defected to the state of Chu, and when the king of Chu mourned for fifteen years, he was promoted to Ling Yin (the highest military and political official of the state of Chu) and assisted the king of Chu to implement the reform.

Specifically, the state gave up some official positions to increase income, reduce the state's support for the nobles, and take back the old aristocratic lords who had been buried in Duantan for three generations, so as to save money and food to support the army in the war. The reform also caused some old aristocrats to move to the "vast void land" in order to develop the land. There are also "selection and use of energy", the selection of talents for the country, "clear law and trial order", emphasizing efficiency and fairness, and so on.

The measures taken by Wu Qi to change the law are relatively brief in the historical records, and it is difficult to know the full picture, but it is certain that the main purpose of the reform is to strengthen the army and not to carry out comprehensive reforms.

It's just that Wu Qi chose to use the old nobles of Chu as a breakthrough to change the law, such as "abolishing the alienation of the princes", and letting some of the old nobles move to the "vast and void land" and other measures, which will undoubtedly damage the interests of the old nobles of Chu, and he was also hated by the old nobles of Chu because of this. Only six years later, in 381 BC, the king of Chu mourned his death, and the old nobles of Chu rebelled in the mourning hall of the king of Chu and attacked Wu Qi. According to the "Historical Records", Wu Qi, who faced a mutation, "walked the corpse of the king and lay down", Wu Qi ran over and lay on the corpse of the king of Chu mourning, even so, the old nobles still did not let him go, they "shot Wu Qi and mourned the king".

Wu Qi can be called a man of insight, at the critical moment at that time, he also thought of the issue of revenge for himself, the king of Chu mourning was buried, and after the king of Chu Su ascended the throne, he immediately ordered all the old nobles who shot the body of the king of Chu to be killed, and more than 70 people were implicated, which can be regarded as indirectly avenging Wu Qi.

In fact, Wu Qi's tragedy also has his own reasons. According to historical records, he was mean and unkind, and the "Historical Records" said: "The nobles of Chu tried their best to harm Wu Qi", and the word "exhausted" is enough to explain the difference in Wu Qi's popularity.

Wu Qi's death also made the strength of the Chu State short-lived, and then fell into a situation of passive beating.

Wu Qi was the first reformer in Chinese history to dedicate himself to his own reform measures, which also shows on the other hand that it is difficult to reform and redistribute interests.

Wu Qi Reform was a reform movement in which Wu Qi was appointed as Ling Yin during the period of King Chu Mourning (386 BC-381 BC) in the early years of the Warring States Period (386 BC-381 BC) to reform the politics, law, and military affairs of Chu.

In 381 BC, King Chu mourned the death of the law, and the reform was strongly opposed by the old nobles, ending in failure.

Purpose:1Wu Qi's changes made the state of Chu stronger: he attacked Baiyue to the south, expanding the territory of Chu to Dongting Lake and Cangwu County. With the help of Chu's offensive, Zhao attacked Thorn Pu and conquered Huangcheng, and Chu and Zhao defeated the Wei army.

2.The Wu Qi Reform promoted the transformation of the aristocratic politics of the Chu State into bureaucratic politics.

3.It also played a certain role in influencing the Shang Dynasty reform of the Qin State.

The emergence of the Wu Qi Reform not only promoted the strength of the Chu State, although the original intention of the Wu Qi Reform was good, but it shook the interests of the old aristocracy, and they were very dissatisfied with it. After the death of King Chu Mourning, the old nobles rebelled and besieged the palaceWu Qi was shot to death with a random arrow, and the reform movement was declared a failure.

Although Wu Qi's reform failed, it also made the national strength of Chu stronger, especially the military strength was better than before. At that time, the princes and countries were afraid of the Chu State, and the Chu people "shook the world and subdued the princes". In addition, the ideas and concepts of this reform also indirectly influenced the Shang Dynasty reform of the Qin State.

Everyone found that no, the ending of the characters who changed the law every time was not particularly goodMost people end up with death, butYes, it is precisely because of the existence of these people that a country can be more prosperous. Wu Qi changed the lawWu QiThe end is to be killed by random arrows, andShang martingale changeIn the end, Shang Ying also ended up with a car split. However, the Shang Dynasty Reform Law was continued.

It's not like Wu Qi's reform, and the final result is failure. But to be honest, I still admire these people who dare to break the old system, and without these people, how would our country have developed to the way it is now.

I believe that everyone will understand when they see this that every social progress will bring dissatisfaction to some people, because this progress is good, but it will lead to the loss of their interests, so these people will do everything possible to prevent it, even unscrupulous means. But that was before, and now it shouldn't happen, because our land is unified, and the people involved want the society to develop like a good side, and they have mastered it, and ordinary people can't effectively organize a resistance movement at all, so I believe that our society will get better and better.

There is also innovation, and the macro aspect is not something we have to worry about, but we can contribute to the progress of society.

It influenced the Shang Dynasty reform, made the Chu state strong, shook the interests of the nobles, launched a rebellion, and reduced the burden on the people.

Of course, it has a role, and has obtained a lot of help for the government, provided a lot of strategies for the court, helped the court to get better development, provided great benefits for the court, and formulated relevant rules for the court.

Wu Qi's reform promoted the national strength of the Chu State, of course, it did not last long, because it offended the old nobles.

It can promote the development of politics, it can also promote the development of the economy, it can change policies, there will be different ways of movement, it can grasp the change of the situation, and it can also promote the power of the military.
