story

In the spring and Autumn period, Zheng Wugong, the king of the state of Zheng, had two sons, both of whom were born to the Jiang family. However, the Jiang family only preferred Gongshu Duan, the youngest son, to be his son, but this request was rejected.

After the death of Duke Wu, his eldest son became the monarch, that is, Duke Zheng Zhuang. Jiang asked for the system (located in the northwest of Xingyang County, Henan Province) to be granted as a capital for Gongshu Duan, and asked for the "capital" to be granted to Gongshu Duan. Although the ministers all opposed it, Zhuang Gong could not but agree to his mother's request. Ji Zhong, the doctor, said to Zhuang Gong, "is there a time when Jiang Shi is satisfied? It's better to find a way earlier. Don't let it spread. It's hard to spread it. The grass can't be uprooted, not to mention the king's favorite brother? "

Zhuang Gong said, "if you do anything unjust, you will die." Later, Gongshu Duan conspired against Zheng. As a result, he was defeated by Zhuang Gong and was forced to commit suicide.
