[1] According to Lüshi Chunqiu, a Chinese classic text compiled around 239 BCE, Fei was the junior teacher of the crown prince Jian, and when a princess of the State of Qin was betrothed to Prince Jian, Fei was entrusted with the task of escorting the princess to Chu.
[1] Fei Wuji then framed another official Xi Wan (郤宛) and tricked Prime Minister Nang Wa into killing him.
Shen Yin Shu, the chief military commander of Chu, pointed out Nang's mistake and persuaded him to execute the hated Fei Wuji.
Both Nang Wa and King Zhao of Chu fled, and Shen Yin Shu died in battle.
Fei Wuji's persecution of Prince Jian and Wu She directly contributed to the decline of Chu and he is remembered as one of the top villains in Chinese history.
