Cold-blooded eunuchs killed two Chinese emperors

serving under the North Wei regime, including killing two Chinese emperors, acting brutally, acquiring power.

Tong Ai (401-452) is an eunuch serving under the Northern Wei Dynasty (386-534). According to the book of Custody of the Chinese historian Tu Ma Quang, Tong Ai was inferior, because he was guilty of being guilty and then brought into the palace.

Tong Ai was gentle and gentle, showed his kindness to his colleagues, humbled before his superiors, worked quickly, carefully and discreetly, so many people loved him. But inside such a cover is sinister, evil and cruel.

The eunuchs of Tong gradually gained credibility, becoming caretakers of Prince Thac Bat Ho.

Bat Ho waterfall was the eldest son of Thai Vu De Waterfall of Bat Dao, and was appointed a crown prince when he was only 4 years old. Although losing his physiological ability, Tong Ai still cannot forget sensuality.

When the prince was raining with a female bow, he stood outside peeking. Bat Ho waterfall discovered immediately extremely angry, demoted Tong Ai. Since then, the relationship between Tong Ai and the prince became 'unwholesome rice, sweet soup'.

During a hunt, Thai Vu De Bat Dao Waterfall (the third emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty) saw Tong Ai in a flexible mind and thoughtful work kept him. Tong Ai took care of the emperor extremely meticulously, was used by the king and ordained the Chinese government, in charge of the daily activities of the emperor.

Being favored, Tong Ai acted imposingly, blatantly accepting bribes and cliques. In 451, Prince Prince was fiercely contradictory with Tong Ai because he discovered this eunuch became corrupt and self-interested.

The Apostle was afraid that the confidant officials of Prince Ho Chien were the sheep Ni Dao Thinh and Nham Binh Thanh denouncing him, so they took the first step.

By the time King Thac Bat Dao was conquering the south, Tong Ai denounced two powerful assistants of Prince Ho. In rage, Thai Vu De ordered them to be executed. Many other mandarins close to the Crown Prince were also executed. In June 451, more than three months after King Thac Bat Dao returned to the capital, he was terrified and fell ill and died at the age of 24.

After the crown prince died, Thai Vu De recognized the mistake, drank and drank wine day and night and regretted it. This does not pass through a cunning person like Tong Ai.

The Apostle feared that sooner or later his crimes would be exposed, so he decided to kill the king.

In the spring of 452, Thac Bat Dao emperor hunted, returned too tired to drink unconscious. Tong Ai took the opportunity to chase all the slaves out, and then a trusted eunuch pressed the pillow for the king to die from suffocation, according to the autonomous autonomy of historian Tu Ma Quang.

After the Thai Vu De suddenly died at age 44, the two were most likely to succeed the son of the Crown Prince, Thac Bat Tuan and the third son of Thai Vu De and Dong Binh Vuong Thac Bat Han. Tong Ai did not want these two people to go to the throne, just afraid Thac Bat Tuan vengeance for his father, and was in disagreement with Thac Bat Han.

This eunuch only had good relations with the sixth son of the king, Thac Bat Du. In the night, Tong Ai blocked the news of the king's death, quietly summoning Thac Bat Du into the palace.

The Apostle also preached the queen's command, millions of gods entered the palace to purge. Those who dare to protest against the Apocalypse are killed immediately. East Binh Vuong Thac Bat Han also could not avoid fate.

The waterfall of Bu Du was crowned emperor, not forgetting to conquer Tong Ai as a code dealer, the general and the monk. The Apostle then took full power in the court, no less than the king.

Thac Bat Du knew that he was crowned unofficial, so he tried to bribe the officials by giving them lots of money and treasures. This also caused the treasury to run out quickly.

Since taking the throne, Thac Bat Du has been immersed in the wine, dissipated, neglected the main court. The Apostle saw that, considered himself a benefactor to help the king, he abused his power and behaved violently.

In the winter of 452, Thac Bat Du listened to the great god, planned to subtract Tong Ai. But I did not expect that the eunuchs were too fragile, this wickedness came out first.

At the time when the waterfall was sacrificed to the Emperor at night, Tong Ai sent his assistant to assassinate the emperor. Thac Bat Du died when he was just 7 months old.

The second time he killed the North Wei emperor, Tong Ai received the karmic retribution when one of his confidants revealed the incident to the Southern Minister Lu Li Li.

Lu Li secretly picked up the Penglai Waterfall into the palace, and at the same time summoned a ban on military protection, proclaimed Tong Ai guilty of killing the king, ordering the death penalty. The death of Tong Ai was recorded as taking place very slowly and painfully.

Chinese historians today still debate the crimes of Tong Ai. Although directly related to the killing of the two emperors, in the end, Tong Ai was only convicted of assassinating the king King Waterfall Bat Du. This raises the question that Ai did not act alone when killing Thai Vu De Thac Bat Dao.

Finally, Thac Bat Tuan came to the throne, became the 5th king of Bac Wei when he was 13 years old, ending the period of uncertainty caused by Ai Ai.

The eunuchs are indispensable people in Chinese feudal history. They are usually close people, trusted by the emperor, so it is easy to lead power, power of authority, and even abandon the emperor. This series will tell the story of the most notorious eunuchs in Chinese history.
