Who knows how Qin Shihuang died?
It is still difficult to determine whether Qin Shihuang died of a sudden illness or was murdered by others. The death of Qin Shihuang is clearly recorded in Historical Records of Qin Shihuang. It is said that during his fifth patrol, he fell ill in Pingyuan and Tianjin, and barely reached Dunduntai (now northwest of Guangzong, Hebei Province) and fell down. It is generally believed that Qin Shihuang was ill because of too much sexual intercourse and overwork during the tour, so that he could not afford to get sick. The handling of Qin Shihuang's funeral was also unusual. According to historical records, Prime Minister Reese was afraid that the world would change, so he put his coffin in a cold car and let his trusted eunuch guard it. Wherever I go, I eat as usual. Officials play with things and officials respond in the car. It was a hot summer, and a stone of abalone was used in the car to confuse the smell of the body. It was not until he entered Xianyang that he officially sent out obituaries. These practices undoubtedly cast a mysterious color on the death of Qin Shihuang. According to Records of Historical Records and Biography of Meng Tian, some people think that the bizarre death of Qin Shihuang is the mystery of ancient history. The reason is that Qin Shihuang was not as sick as some feudal emperors in history. Looking up the historical records, there is no record that he suffers from dark diseases and chronic diseases. His body has always been strong. A prominent example is that when Jing Ke was assassinated in the 20th year of the King of Qin (227 BC), he was still able to get rid of his sleeves in a panic and escape around the pillar, never letting Jing Ke catch up. When Qin Shihuang made his fifth tour, he was only fifty years old, not senile. I got sick in plain Tianjin and walked 140 miles to the sand dunes. When recovering from illness on the sand dune platform, he was able to dictate letters to his son Fu Su, indicating that his mind was as clear as ever, as if he had not suffered from a fatal emergency. In short, according to the constitution of Qin Shihuang and the situation at that time, it is not impossible to get sick in the sand dunes. It is worth noting that the sand dune palace is desolate and the palace is empty and deep. According to legend, this was the place where Yin raised animals. During the Warring States Period, King Wuling of Zhao was surrounded by Gongzi Cheng and Li Dui for harboring his eldest son for rebellion. He wanted to go out but couldn't eat, and finally starved to death in the dune palace, showing the degree of isolation from the outside world. In this environment, there is a great possibility of accidents. Another way of saying this is that according to various indications, eunuch Zhao Gao is likely to kill the king. First of all, Zhao Gao has feuds with Meng Tian and Meng Yi. It is said that Zhao Gao once committed a heinous crime, and Meng Yi sentenced him to death for the rule of law. After Qin Shihuang asked, he was pardoned. At that time, Meng Tian threatened the Huns, Meng Yi was the supreme of the Qing Dynasty, one was the military commander in charge of foreign affairs, and the other was the civil servant in charge of intrigue, which not only won the trust of the first emperor, but also gained the reliance of the childe Fu Su. Once Fu Su ascended the throne, the position of the Montessori brothers will be further consolidated. So Zhao Gao hates and fears the Montessori brothers. If he wants to get rid of the threat from the Montessori brothers, he must try to stop Fu Su from ascending to the throne. In this way, Zhao Gao only took refuge in Hu Hai, the 18th son of Qin Shihuang, because Hu Hai was the most likely successor to the throne except Fu Su. Hu Hai dealt with Fu Su, which Zhao Gao had planned for a long time. For his own benefit, he is always looking for opportunities to get rid of Fu Su and the Montessori brothers. Secondly, the first emperor recuperated in the sand dunes, which provided Zhao Gao with the opportunity to kill people. The first emperor was seriously ill, so he wrote to Fu Su, "I will be buried with him in Xianyang." Obviously, he wants Fu Su to inherit the throne. Zhao Gao understands that this matter is related to his own life and death, and a decisive decision must be made. At that time, only the prime minister Reese stood on the side of the first emperor. Reese was selfish and easy to control, and all the other attendants were Zhao Gao's companions. Also, in view of Zhao Gao's situation at that time, there was no other choice but to make this move. When Qin Shihuang dictated the imperial edict to Fu Su, Zhao Gao participated in it. After the letters were sealed, Zhao Gao detained them, looking for opportunities to persuade Hu Hai and Reese to kill Fu Su. However, the imperial edict cannot be detained for too long. If the late Emperor gets better and learns that the imperial edict has not been issued, Zhao Gao will be sentenced to death. One thousand first emperor was dying, Reese was not persuaded, but reported to the first emperor that Zhao Gao would be beheaded. Therefore, only by killing the first emperor and then persuading Reese can we be foolproof. When the first emperor died, he was not afraid that Reese would not submit, nor that no one would ask the imperial edict. Visible, Zhao Gao withhold letters at the moment, like imminent, had to send. The death of Qin Shihuang is a city by the sea, just as Zhao Gao said to Hu Hai in Biography of Historical Records and Hu Hai that "all the ministers are suspicious of the plan of sand dunes". From the analysis of reason, it is possible and inevitable for Zhao Gao to kill the king. However, after all, it happened more than 2000 years ago. It is still difficult to determine whether Qin Shihuang died of a sudden illness or was murdered by others.
