The story of Zhang Yi's flogging is widely spread in the folklore, basically the same as that of Han Xin's crotch humiliation, which belongs to the frustration of those who have succeeded in achieving great success before the inevitable experience. It is interesting that Zhang Yi after the official Qin, even repair the book to the original "lesson" of their own Chu Zhaoyang said, "Beginning of my drink from if I do not steal and Bik, if I flogged me. If the good guard your country, I Gu and steal your city".

Meaning: initially I followed you, you wrongly accused me of stealing jade jade and flogged me, and now you have to guard your city, I want to steal your city. Such a blatant provocation shows that as a scholar-guest, Zhang Yi is also very vindictive.
In fact, Zhaoyang lost the jade, was just an accident, drinking wildly forgetting the occasion, to take the king of Chu rewarded the precious jade out to show off to pass the watch, a lot of hands, a moment to find it is not at all surprising. However, Zhang Yi, who was poor and lowly at that time, looked at him through tinted glasses, believing that poor and downtrodden people must be of low character and coveted valuables, and indiscriminately arrested others and tortured them in an attempt to beat them up and almost killed them, so it is no wonder that Zhang Yi was angry. This also reflects the fact that the scholarly class at that time was arrogant, full of superiority, and looked down on the basic facts of the bottom of the cloth, and thus later on, the state of Chu was defeated because of Zhang Yi's lies and deceptions, which can be said to have been the cause of the past.
A public flogging can be considered an unmitigated disaster. However, fortunately this meal of flesh and blood finally let Zhang Yi soberly realized that Chu appointed this arrogant and insolent people for the phase, it can be seen that the king of Chu is not a wise and wise king, not worthy of their own service, want to excel, you must vote for another master, as long as their eloquent tongue is still there, there must be a chance to turn the tide of the chaotic world.
As expected, Zhang Yi was soon recognized by the king of Qin, and was finally able to show his ambition in the political arena, and avenge his own humiliation.
Zhang Yi scolded MenciusA Confucian scholar, Mencius, was full of wisdom and had the reputation of "great talent and eloquence, the world is not right", while the Qin prime minister of the Warring States period, Zhang Yi, was known as "the world's first mouth" because of the birth of a three-inch tongue. As if there is a destiny, in the two masters in the academic and political fields, there are many arguments, the degree of intensity of the sword, no less than the modern celebrities microblogging over the strong smoke breath.

The two men's many verbal exchanges, especially Zhang Yi's sentence "Confucianism, the great pseudo" is the most sharp, which some of the ancient curses, which has always pretended to look down on the vertical and horizontal strategists of Mencius also have no room for self-content, and thus no longer dare to have a "concubine of a woman's way vertical and horizontal family". "The first time I saw him, I was so happy to see him, and I was so happy to see him, and I was so happy to see him.
Confucian culture, known as the orthodoxy of Chinese culture, Confucius and Mencius disciples all over the world, all the people who read the book, all of these two masters respect. However, in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period, when a hundred schools of thought contended and various thoughts and speeches shone, there was Zhang Yi, who was comparable to the modern rebellious youth, who disdained the sour and corrosive literati on the surface of the pseudo-seriousness of the surface, and went so far as to point out directly to Mencius in the temple, under the eyes of the public, that he "had the cheek of a man who had the cheek of a man who had no cheek", and he even accused the literati of Confucianism of being pedantic and ignorant, and of being openly mean and contemptuous of all the people of the world. Mean, contempt for all beings in the world, everything to maintain the rites of Zhou, denigrate the legal system, in the final analysis, but a group of four body not hard work, five grain nerd clouds. A burst of laughter and angry scolding, shocked the hall in the silence, and at this moment, Mencius has long been this "degrading" public ridicule angry and unable to refute, under the shame and indignation of a mouthful of blood sprayed out more than two feet away ......
In the reception banquet of King Xuan of Qi, the Mengzi Zhang Yi, I am afraid, is the first and foremost person to scold Mengzi at the reception banquet of King Xuan of Qi. I think that if there had been an insurance industry during the Warring States period, Zhang Yi would have thrown away a lot of money for his skillful tongue to survive and put up a heavy insurance policy. However, this kind of skillful politicians can not get into the eyes of the king of Qin Wu, and ultimately ended up resigning and returning to their homes, the soul of the end of the bed.
Zhang Yi said the king of Qin
Zhang Yi said the king of Qin said, originally, is the "Strategies of the Warring States period" included in the Qin dynasty strategist Zhang Yi advised the king of Qin Hui-wang to pay attention to the national defense, rich and strong troops, and Zhu Geliang's "Table of the Divisions" of the State of Shu is quite similar to the same thing, both for the subjects to the king of the petition to the State of affairs of the proposed documents of the sonata type of literature. However, it is rumored that the author of this text is not Zhang Yi himself, but the famous thinker Han Feizi at the end of the Warring States period.

The author of the original text, today, there is no way to prove.
King Hui of Qin recognized Zhang Yi and made him a minister, entrusting him with important responsibilities, which not only became a turning point in the life of Zhang Yi, who was good at strategy, but also brought about a fundamental change in the future of Qin's national fortune. Zhang Yi's talent not only lies in his full of poetry and eloquence, but also in his correct judgment of the world situation, which is not difficult to see from the original text of "Zhang Yi Said to the King of Qin".
In the work, Zhang Yi quotes from the classics and analyzes for the king of Qin Hui the strategic situation of the six states combining to fight against Qin, and in the face of such a powerful military alliance, a strong sense of crisis makes the king of Qin Hui have to pay attention to the military and political ideas put forward by Zhang Yi. In addition, Zhang Yi explained the various advantages of each country in terms of food and grass, military strength, and morale, and compared with the current shortcomings of Qin, he put forward a timely strategy for Qin to adopt, thus further helping the king to find a strategy that best suits Qin's situation.
Under this visionary guidance, King Hui of Qin was enlightened, and from then on, put Zhang Yi's ideas into practice, so that Qin's military power in the late Warring States period of the vassal division of the rapid rise, for the unification of the six countries to lay a solid foundation.
Zhang Yi QuotesZhang Yi, the famous Qin statesman during the Warring States period, was not only a politician and diplomat who was good at strategy, but also a philosopher who knew the way of dealing with people in the world. His classic quotes, which have been passed down through history, show that even in the modern world, Zhang Yi's motto is still worth learning.

"Accumulation of feathers sinks the boat, the group is light and folds the axle, the mouths of many fuse the gold, and the accumulation of destruction pins the bones," which means that although the feathers are light, the number of gathering more can make the boat sink; although the goods are light, but the loading more can also be folded the axle; the power of the mouth of many public opinion of the amazing, even the gold and stone can be pinned melted; the slanderous words are more, even if the flesh and blood of the family members. The power of public opinion is so amazing that even gold and stone can be melted; slander and libel can destroy even the affection of flesh and blood. The idiom of "Fuse gold through many mouths" has been passed down to future generations, which is also derived from Zhang Yi's figurative analogy.
This quote is from the Western Han Dynasty. Liu Xiang's "Strategies of the Warring States? Through these several wonderful analogies, it is easy to see that Zhang Yi's success in diplomacy lies in his ability to assess the situation and fully understand the psychology of the characters, so as to guide the other party to accept their own suggestions.
According to history, Zhang Yi was once appointed by King Xiang of Wei as a minister. He believed that the Qin king was ambitious and coveted the territories of the six states, so he was very determined to fight against the Qin by combining the vertical and vertical columns. In order to break this stubborn position of Wei, Zhang Yi seized the opportunity of his son's unfinished business shortly after the death of King Xiang and persuaded him to serve Qin in a cross-border manner, thus creating favorable conditions for breaking the military alliance of the six states and helping Qin to dominate the world.
At first, King Ai of Wei had insisted on his father's idea and rejected Zhang Yi's suggestion. However, Zhang Yi was very far-sighted, and on the one hand, he secretly instigated Qin to attack Wei, and on the other hand, he started from the fact that Wei was defeated, analyzed the negative consequences of Wei's insistence on resisting Qin, and finally made the timid and fearful King Ai of Wei accept his own suggestion, and thus completely deviated from the agreement of the six countries "...". The king of Wei finally accepted his proposal, thus completely deviating from the agreement of the six states, and from then on, the state of Wei bowed down to Qin.
According to the "Strategies of the Warring States", Zhang Yi was a native of Anyi, Wei, and he pioneered the diplomatic strategy of "Lianheng", which was appreciated by King Hui-Wang of Qin, and achieved good results in the implementation process, which led to the reign of the King Hui-Wang of Qin, Zhang Yi was once in the high position of prime minister, and mastered the military and political power of the Qin state, and assisted the King Hui-Wang of Qin to complete the annihilation of the six states, and the unification of the world's domination.

The cause of the incident of Zhang Yi's Heng Heng is from Sun Bin's defeat of the Wei army. Since the defeat of Wei, the state has been weakening, while at the same time, Qin has been growing stronger, gradually forming a threat to the remaining six states. When the kings of the six states were anxious, some politicians advocated that the six states should form a military alliance to fight against Qin, and thus a strategic alliance was formed to fight against Qin. The first is to make a new one, and the second is to make a new one, and the third is to make a new one, and the third is to make a new one.
At this very moment, Zhang Yi, who was the strategist of King Hui of Qin, put forward his own strategy, that is, although the six countries have the will to fight against Qin, they have a lot of contradictions and suspicions among themselves, and they are not willing to work together. Therefore, in order to break up the alliance of the six states, it was necessary to make full use of their contradictions, destroy their trust, break up their cooperative relationship, and then break them up one by one when they were alone. King Hui of Qin adopted Zhang Yi's suggestion and entrusted him with this task.
So, Zhang Yi can start his own diplomatic strategy, the use of the opportunity to visit the countries, the full use of their own skillful eloquence, first confuse the king of Chu Huai, successfully achieved the Chu and Qi break off diplomatic relations with the political purposes, and then plan to make the rest of the vassals have to Qin, so that the six countries, "the combination of vertical" situation has been successfully broken by Zhang Yi. The first time I saw this was when I was a student at the University of California, Berkeley, and the second time I was a student at a university.
In 221 BC, the Qin army wiped out the remaining resistance of the six kingdoms, bringing an end to the centuries-long era of vassalage. The Qin dynasty, the first feudal monarchy in China's history, was established, and a new page in Chinese history was turned.
Zhang Yi's wifeSince the TV series "Qin Empire of the vertical and horizontal" has been on the air, a generation of Qin prime minister Zhang Yi's career, love and hatred of the interpretation of the screen, causing the audience a lot of curiosity. In the drama, Zhang Yi and the innkeeper Su Xuan met and fell in love, and finally **** married, becoming one of the major highlights of the emotional drama. However, Su Xuan this person, in the history books, whether there is a record, the real history, Zhang Yi's wife in fact, who is it?

According to legend, Zhang Yi's wife is very famous, but in the historical records of Zhang Yi, there are not many descriptions of his wife, and only appeared once after Zhang Yi was flogged. According to historical records, Chu Zhao Yang and his guests on the occasion of the trip, take the wine out of the king of Chu rewarded "and the jade" for the people to read and enjoy. There were a lot of people there, passing around, the jade disappeared, everyone thought it was the poor Zhang Yi stole the jade, and Zhang Yi insisted that he did not steal it. Zhang Yi insisted that he had not stolen it. Enraged, Zhaoyang ordered Zhang Yi to be flogged in public to force him to confess. Zhang Yi, who had been beaten to the bone and bruised all over his body, still claimed that he had not stolen the Hashi's jade disk.
Although Zhaoyang was skeptical, he had no evidence and was afraid of being killed in front of everyone, so he let Zhang Yi go. Zhang Yi was humiliated on the street, and he was very upset. When he returned home, his wife complained about his husband's incompetence. Zhang Yi opened his mouth and asked his wife, "Is my tongue still in my mouth?" His wife replied, "My tongue is there." Zhang Zhaizhong then assured that the tongue in, the capital of the prominent career in this life, there is still a day of prosperity. Sure enough, not long after, Zhang Yi with his three-inch tongue to become the king of Qin Hui staff, for the Qin destroyed the six countries, united the world, the achievement of the great cause of the ages, made a great contribution.
