Wang Sengda is a noble gentry. Why was he finally sentenced to death for treason?

Wang Sengda was a man of the hour in the Southern and Northern Dynasties in China. He was brilliant and well-informed, but he was finally stabbed to death by Liu Song in the Southern Dynasties on charges of rebellion.

So, has this Wang Sengda rebelled?

We know that the era of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms is an era of seniority, in other words, birth, which is door politics.

Frankly speaking, whether an emperor has face is not orthodox, not by the number of literati and celebrities under your command, but by the number of people with real talents and practical learning.

Even Emperor Wu of Song, a commoner, established the Liu and Song Dynasties in the Southern Dynasties. As a wealthy aristocratic family, the Wangs still have great influence. Although their influence on the country's major policies is so obvious, their political status is still decisive and unshakable.

Wang Sengda was an outstanding representative of Liu and Song nobles in the Southern Dynasties. He is not only of noble birth, but also very talented. This guy was born in Langya, a very famous king, and was an official for the fourth time. His great-grandfather was the prime minister of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, his grandfather was Stuart, and his father, Wang Hong, was a sedan chair general.

Like father, like son, Wang Senda is unambiguous. He has been familiar with poetry books since he was a child and is very wise. He won the favor of Song Wendi and Liu Yilong. Later, the emperor personally took care of the media and made Wang Sengda the son-in-law of Liu Yiqing, the king of Linchuan.

Since then, Wang Sengda is proud of his spring breeze. When he was less than 20 years old, he became a military leader in Shixing, and later he was promoted to three levels and promoted to prefect.

After Xiao Zong Liu Jun ascended the throne, Wang Senda made great strides like a helicopter. The official worshipped the general of the Guards and the order of secretariat, and was awarded five titles.

When a young man has a successful career and a prominent family background, Wang Senda began to fall into the depravity of capital pride, bohemian, arrogance and extravagance. Not only that, this product is also arrogant. For people with ordinary backgrounds, even when they become big officials, they look down on others and are arrogant, and they don't even buy the emperor's account.

Lv Hou, her mother, was born in an ordinary family, and her brother Lv Qingzhi was Wang Langya's driver. But his sister became the queen mother, and Lu Qingzhi was a well-deserved uncle, so she should be polite to others, but this Wang Senda still looked down on others and even hurt people with ugly words.

One day, Lu Qingzhi's grandson Lu Qiongzhi made a special trip to visit Wang Sengda, who was shameless. He didn't even know he was young, and he humiliated his children.

He said, "You are very proud now, aren't you? Your grandfather used to be our coachman. I wonder if you know? "

Some words made Lu Qiong feel embarrassed and ashamed, so he ran home and cried and told his grandfather. Grandpa Lu Qingzhi will of course tell his sister Empress Lu.

Empress Lu trembled with anger and immediately went to complain. When she learned that Wang Senda had humiliated her brother Lu Qingzhi, she turned pale with anger. She immediately complained to Liu Jun and asked him to teach this little Wang Senda a lesson.

Liu Jun was livid with anger and said with a smile that it was time to give him some color to see see. No matter how crazy this boy is, can he escape from my palm? I don't mean not to report it now. Let's see what I can do with him.

The opportunity to clean up Wang Sengda has finally come. In August of the second year of Daming (458), a fortune teller colluded with soldiers in an attempt to rebel and was killed. When Liu Jun finally got the chance, he asked an anti-thief to falsely accuse Wang Senda of participating in the rebellion, and sent Wang Senda to the guillotine. Alas, Wang Sengda was killed for being frivolous at the age of 36.

Wang Sengda died of arrogance, even more from his unforgiving mouth, but definitely not from rebellion.

Modesty makes people progress, while pride makes people lag behind. When a person is successful, the most rare thing is to keep a low profile. Only with an open mind can people be invincible. Arrogance is the root of trouble at any time.
