Which monarch was terminally ill and fell into the cesspit and died in the Spring and Autumn Period?

Duke Jing of Jin was the monarch of the State of Jin in the Spring and Autumn Period, the grandson of Jin Wengong and the son of Duke Cheng of Jin. In 599 BC, under the successful rule of his father Jin, Jin was defeated by Chu and became the overlord, but Jin also defeated Qi.

This monarch, who has not been discussed much in history, miraculously fell into the cesspit and died. What happened?

In the Spring and Autumn Period, medicine was just a technology. This does not mean that modern people must seek medical treatment if they are ill. The monarch of Jin was seriously ill. He first looked for a wizard who was good at divination instead of a doctor. After the wizard predicted, he said to Kim, "Your Majesty, you can't eat the new wheat next year."

Duke Jing of Jin was furious and detained the wizard. There are no excellent doctors in his country, so he went to Qin for medical treatment. At that time, Qin Henggong of Qin specially sent the most famous doctor of Qin. While waiting for the doctor to arrive, Kim had a dream at night, dreaming that his lesion had become two children. One of the children said, "Qin's doctor is a good doctor. I am afraid that they will come to Shanghai, and we have to flee! " The other said, "let's run from under the ointment to above the chest." I don't think he can take us! " Later, Dr. Qin came and bluntly said: Duke Jing of Jin was too ill to be cured. This is also the origin of the idiom "terminally ill".

Jing recognized Dr. Qin as a good doctor and returned to China after the reward. I know my health well, but I am indignant at the wizard's statement that I won't last until next year, so I wait until next year with peace of mind. Although Duke Jing of Jin is getting worse and worse, it doesn't look like he will die in early spring. Duke Jing of Jin remembered the wizard's words and asked his men to present this year's new wheat. He said to the left and right, "When I eat the first meal cooked by Xinmai this year, I will kill the wizard in prison."

Just a few minutes before he was ready to eat, he suddenly felt bloating and went to the toilet, but he accidentally fell into the cesspit and died. Whether the wizard was killed is not recorded, except that an eunuch dreamed that he carried Gong Jing to heaven, so he carried Gong Jing out of the cesspit at noon, and the eunuch died after being buried.
