Zhao Xing faced the suggestion of occupying the Hetao alone, and his heart was infinitely entangled.

What is entangled is his original thoughts, the current situation, and Zhao Yong's relationship.

I think that at the beginning, I met Zhao Yong, trekked hard in the jungle and depended on each other, and I had formed a friendship of life and death. At the beginning, he also swore that he would assist Zhao Yong to step on the throne of the emperor. But this oath is still in my ears, why did I break my promise and fatten myself with ambitions?

Although it is not common for students to betray their teachers and it is not common for teachers to betray students, well, but there are also not.

Zhao Xing was taken aback by this idea, and rummaged through the history books in his mind, and finally found that there was really no such thing as the teacher betraying the students.

Well, well, the reason why I was able to have such a terrible idea and ruin the reputation of the teacher team was because there were villains around me. For example, the villain is agitating his lips and tongue to talk about it.

Xu Jie was still planning a bright future there, and he didn't know that he had been classified as a villain by his future lord.

But even if he knew, it didn't matter, because he himself thought that since he followed Zhao Xing, the master, he was a real villain.

"Okay, don't talk about it, Lin Hu's infighting doesn't know when it will start. In the beginning, we must not seize their territory, which will make them form a common hatred for the enemy, and in the blink of an eye, twist into a rope against us, and in the end it will be self-defeating and not cost-effective. Qin Mo, you will quietly unite the Zhou elites in the Hetao now, unite, and keep the Hetao, I will leave you the three thousand soldiers I brought this time, and defend the five cities of Yifeili, and you can't let the Qin people take the opportunity to occupy the Hetao. Of course, what I left to you is the foundation of my three hundred monarchs, absolutely loyal and reliable, as long as you recruit the Zhou people in the Hetao, you will have an army of 100,000 in the blink of an eye. ”

Qin Mo kowtowed happily: "Mr. arranged, I will resolutely implement it." ”

Yin Qiyong shouldered the heavy burden: "Please leave me to help Qin Mo." ”

Zhao Xing shook his head: "Relying on Qin Mo alone to defend it can't guarantee the safety of the five cities, and it can't stop the attack of the Qin people, so let's go back and train the army again, and prepare to ask the old general to lead the troops to recover Hexi and use it to contain the Qin State." Then connect Hexi and Hetao into one, once King Linhu is defeated, I will clean up the mess as a Linhu gang. ”

Zhao Xing clapped his hands: "The Lord is far-sighted, so that he can be justified and let others not interfere." ”

"In order to make the internal strife within Lin Hu longer, Qin Mo."

"Lord." Qin Mo has now dealt with himself as a retainer of Zhao Xing.

"You have to fully support King Lin Hu, of course, there will be occasional shortages of money and food, which is also inevitable. And the younger brother of King Linhu, I will send a caravan to trade with them, do you understand this reason? ”

Qin Mo smiled: "It's not about helping the weak and resisting the strong, my subordinates understand." ”

After arranging all this, Zhao Xing hurriedly said: "I want to hurry up and go to Zhouyuan to ask for the seal, and then go back to Daijun to recruit troops and horses, and prepare to recover Hexi." ”

With 1,000 gold gold, 5,000 jin of gold, and 50 gold beads, Zhao Xing set foot on Zhou Yuan.

Zhao Xing's request for sealing has his reasons.

At the beginning, he reported Yao's descendants, and according to Zhou etiquette, he needed to be rewarded with a fief to worship his ancestors.

At the beginning, Chen Guojun was full of descendants of Emperor Shun, King Wu was enshrined in Chen, built the capital Wanqiu, let him guard the ancestral rites of Emperor Shun, and then King Wu searched for the descendants of Dayu, and finally proved that Donglou Gong is a descendant of Dayu. In the early years of the Zhou Dynasty, King Wu of Zhou sealed him to Qidi and asked him to guard the ancestral rites of Emperor Yu. The Duke of Zhou followed the tradition of "rising and destroying and succeeding extinction", and sealed the elder brother of the king of Shang, Weizi, to establish the Song State in Shangqiu, the old capital of the Shang Dynasty, and specially allowed him to use the Son of Heaven to worship the Shang Dynasty and serve the Zhou Dynasty as a guest, and now he is still bullied by the princes on the edge of the Zhao State.

But if you search for Emperor Yao's descendants and don't get them, it's over.

This time, Zhao Xing suddenly jumped out, and was recognized by the historian Lu Hou at that time, and the king of Zhou had no land to seal at that time, so he only gave an empty title of earl. It is said that Zhou Tianzi was very ashamed of this, and did not hesitate to condescend to Zhao Xing for this, and sent an envoy to apologize to Zhao Xing.

Now he can justifiably push the boat down the river and seal Zhao Xing a piece of land, so why not?

The current Zhou Tianzi is Ji Bian, and was later called King Xian.

The era of his reign was a time when the princes were kings, but he was helpless. Starting from him, the princes no longer took Zhou Tianzi seriously.

For this reason, King Zhou Xian was depressed every day, and finally said that he died of illness, but more precisely, he died of grievance.

Now King Zhou Xian is very happy, because in the past few decades, no prince has come to worship him, and now, Zhou Bo Zhao Xing came to meet Nagong, which is a big face.

So, King Xian of Zhou ordered the Zhou Dynasty to govern Zhou Gongxian and go out of the city to greet him instead of himself.

The title of Duke was originally very prominent, and Duke was the only title of a person surnamed Ji. The surname of King Zhou is Ji, and the duke title means: a person who enjoys the title of duke is eligible to inherit the throne.

But not all people with the surname Ji are eligible to be named dukes, and the monarch of the Jin State is also surnamed Ji, but he was originally awarded the title of Marquis of the Tang State. Later, it was renamed Jin, calling himself "Duke", here is the self-title, just like the current princes and kings, they all call themselves "Jin Mougong" so-and-so king, and there is no gold content.

The duke greeted the earl, although it was not in harmony with the courtesy, but now the etiquette has collapsed, and it is a big thing to have an earl to meet the Son of Heaven.

When the two sides met, Zhao Xing regarded himself as a subordinate and presented a pair of white walls, which was the most basic etiquette.

Zhou Gongxian has been a long, long time, and he can't remember the last time he accepted gifts from the princes.

Entering the royal capital and meeting the Son of Heaven was a completely complicated etiquette process, which gave Zhao Xing a taste of the original Zhou rites and made him feel the breadth and profundity of the Central Plains culture.

Then he offered his own gift. Then I heard the sound of jaws dropping on the ground in the Tianzi Hall.

Zhao Xing whispered a sigh of relief when he heard a doctor, and said to himself: "This year's creditors don't have to bully the Son of Heaven, they can live a good life in the past few years." ”

Then Zhao Xing presented a letter of commitment from the King of Wei, a letter of recommendation from the King of Zhao, and asked Zhou Tianzi to make himself the lord of the West River.

This matter has long been reported by the envoys of Zhao and Wei, and Zhou Tianzi, after receiving such a huge bribe, no, is a tribute, he gladly accepted Zhao Xing's invitation to be the marquis of Zhao Xing and fief Xihe. And the old country name of the original Jin State, Tang, was given to Zhao Xing, and now Zhao Xing is the monarch of the Tang State and an official prince.

As for whether he can get Xihe in the future, he doesn't care, but what Zhao Xing wants is legal recognition. As for how Zhao Xing gets along with the monarch of Zhao State, it doesn't matter.

There is no significant difference in rank between a marquis and an earl. Generally speaking, the governor of the war zone who guarded the border in the border area for the king of Zhou was called a "marquis", because he was on the border, and for the sake of domestic security, resources were inevitably tilted towards him. As a result, during the foreign war, he was treated slightly more than the earl.

Because in principle, mastering the conquest and guarding the capital of Zhou Tianzi is equivalent to mastering military power. And those who hold military power are much tougher than civil officials who only hold a seal, so they have the status of waiting for the public. Also on that sentence, fist, decide the position of the butt.

At the banquet, Zhou Tianzi ate Jiuding, Bagui and 36 beans, mainly cabbage and tofu, and tested Zhao Xing's attitude towards himself in the future.

Zhao Xing replied respectfully and promised that he would be in the north to protect Zhou Yuan's safety and not be bullied by the tyrannical Qin. According to the weekly rites, they will be visited four times every five years, and each time they will offer no less than 2,000 catties of gold. At that time, what made Zhou Tianzi and his ministers smile was that they couldn't see their teeth. With such a large amount of income, Zhou Tianzi can order someone to dismantle the debt.

As a result, in the seven hundred years of the Zhou Dynasty, the last officially recognized princes who were officially sealed by Zhou Tianzi jumped out.

In an atmosphere of great joy, Zhao Xing took his letter of appointment and ran back to Zhao with a satisfied fart.
