    Henry I was originally William's fourth son and had no chance of inheriting his father's country, but in the competition between brothers, he finally ascended to the throne by virtue of his own planning and the mysterious death of William II due to a hunting accident. After that, Henry I made great efforts to defend himself against foreign enemies, unify the country, and make a great contribution to the union of England and Normandy.

    However, such a monarch did not die on the battlefield, nor did he die of illness from overwork, but from his own appetite.

    It is said that Henry I died because he ate too many lampreys, and some say that it was an eight-eyed eel, in short, they all have a common characteristic, that is, cold sex. At that time, Henry I's physicians believed that lampreys were in conflict with his body and should not be eaten so much. However, Henry I could not control his desires and eventually died from eating too many lampreys.

    Henry I was a man of great learning, but his character was not very good, his brothers did not like him, even disgusted him, and the succession to the throne was not justified, but even so, in the end, he ascended to the throne. And after becoming king, Henry I ruled the country well with his heart. Although the ending was sloppy, he also made a lot of contributions in his life.

    As a monarch of a country, the death of Henry I is really ironic, and no one would have thought that the life of a famous king would end in such a trivial matter. In fact, in the history of China, there are also many monarchs who died in a way that makes people laugh. For example, Jin Jinggong, Jin Jinggong is known to everyone, more because of his way of death, he fell into the dung pit and died.

    Originally, Jin Jinggong was already terminally ill at that time, and he felt bloated before eating, so he went to the toilet, and finally died inside, which can only be said to be a coincidence.
