Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Aftermath (I)

According to the agreement reached between Liao Shan and Hou Sheng, the Yan army began to enter Linzi on April 5.

The defenders of Qi all went out of the city and unarmed the Yan army.

Many people in Linzi thought that there would be a catastrophe, but they did not expect the result to be unexpected.

The Yan army stationed in Linzi did not disturb the people in the slightest.

On the contrary, the people in Linzi City who wanted to take advantage of the chaos and became traitors were suppressed.

This made the officials and gentry in Linzi City, and the hanging hearts finally relaxed.

On April 6, outside Linzi City, the Yan army camped.

In the early morning, the barracks, which stretched for one or twenty miles, were full of bells and drums and horns.

More than 200,000 Yan troops walked out of the Yan army camp in order.

According to the pre-plan, it has been from the Yan army camp to the east gate of Linzi City. All the Yan troops lined up in square formations. The soldiers of the Yan army were brightly armored, raised their heads and chests, and stood neatly.

In a vacant lot outside the east gate, at this time, a high "landing platform" has been built.

Ji Kang, the young king, wore a crown of nine chapters on his head and a crown of nine chapters.

With a solemn expression, he sat on the throne in the middle of the high platform.

On both sides of the front of the throne, there stood the Changguo Junlejian of Yan State, the generals Wang Shi and Bo Wang, the president of the Supervision Yuan Ji Mao, and the director of the Intelligence Bureau Huang Yong and other civil and military officials. The civilian officials are radiant, and the military attaches are majestic.

Huang Yong, director of the Intelligence Bureau, rushed to the Linzi military camp from other parts of Qi State on the second day after Ji Kang arrived at the Linzi military camp, according to Ji Kang's edict. Because the Supervision Yuan and the Intelligence Bureau will be set up in the newly occupied Qi County immediately.

The sun had just risen in the east, and the east gate of Linzi City slowly opened.

Qi Wangjian was bound by meat, leading the sheep on the left and Maomao on the right, leading the civil and military officials of the Qi State to slowly walk out of the east gate, ready to present the national seal, household registration, mountain and river atlas to the Yan State, and Qi Wangjian knelt down to Yan Wangkang.

The meat is self-bound, and the sheep are the grass, which is the ancient rite of the Central Plains.

According to the Qing History, it is the surrender etiquette used by Weizi when he surrendered to King Wu of Zhou, the ancestor of Ji Kang.

Neutrinos, i.e., neutrinos. The eldest son of Emperor Yi of Shang, the same maternal brother, named Qi.

Weizi personally admonished Di Xin many times, and when he saw that "the end of the sentence cannot be admonished", he discussed with Taishi Jizi and Shaoshi Bigan. Jizi believes that "today Cheng has to govern the country, and the country is not hated when he dies; For the sake of death, there will be no cure in the end, so it is better to go. ”

After King Wu of Zhou destroyed Shang, Weizi visited King Wu's military gate with a sacrificial vessel, tied his flesh and face, led the sheep on the left, and held the grass on the right, and walked forward on his knees, explaining to King Wu of Zhou, the ancestor of Ji Kang, that he was far away from Di Xin.

King Wu of Zhou was very moved, so he released his shackles and "restored his position as before", and he was still a secretary. He was sealed by King Cheng of Zhou in Shangqiu, the birthplace of the Shang Dynasty and the old capital, and established the Song State and became the ancestor of the Song State of the Zhou Dynasty.

Qi Wangjian was at the suggestion of Shangqing Zhou Zi to use this ancient ceremony. The intention is obvious, it is to let Ji Kang follow the ancient rites of his ancestors and divide himself. However, Ji Kang would definitely not do this.

Those who watched the surrender ceremony, according to Ji Kang's edict, as long as they were checked, they couldn't help but watch the ceremony.

Therefore, at the east gate of Linzi City, and even below the city wall, there are also many bold people of Linzi City who come out to watch.

Qi Wangjian came to the surrender platform, knelt down with a "poof", and kowtowed to Ji Kangsan on the stage.

"The guilty minister has sent an edict to surrender to my king. The minister Tian Jian is not virtuous, and now I present to my king the seal of the Qi country, household registration, mountains and rivers atlas, etc., hoping that my king will accept it, and forgive the sins of the ministers......"

After Qi Wangjian finished his speech on surrender, Ji Kang stood up from the throne.

With steady steps, he stepped on the descending steps and came to the front of Qi Wangjian.

With a wave of his hand, the attendant Ling Wang Cong led several attendants, and from the hands of several attendants kneeling behind Qi Wangjian, he took over the national seal, household registration, mountain and river atlas of Qi State, etc.

Ji Kang personally helped the chubby Qi Wang Jian up, and said to Qi Wang Jian: "Tian Jian, you can sacrifice Linzi to the widow, and let the people everywhere in Qi land avoid the suffering of soldiers." This is due to my Yan country and to the community. ”

"In the future, after the Ru and Tian clans migrate to Liaodi, as long as they obey the laws of our Yan Kingdom, they will all be the people of our Yan Kingdom. The widows will treat you and the people of our Yan country equally. ”

"Thank you, my king."

Qi Wangjian, no, now it's Tian Jian. Tian Jian knelt down again and kowtowed to Ji Kangsan.

At this point, the surrender ceremony of Qi officially ended.

Ji Kang returned to the surrender platform, pulled out the king's sword at his waist, and held it high.

shouted loudly: "My heroic soldiers of Yan Kingdom, from this time on, Qi Land will be the territory of my Yan Kingdom, and the people of Qi Land will also be the people of my Yan Kingdom." ”

The young king, not wanting to suppress his excitement any longer, cried out hoarsely:

"I Yan country for ten thousand years! Ten thousand years! ”

Seeing their own king like this, the more than 200,000 Yan troops also excitedly raised their weapons at this time.

Shouted in unison: "I am the king of ten thousand years!" Ten thousand years of Yanguo! I am the king of ten thousand years! Ten thousand years of Yanguo! ……”

According to the regulations, after the surrender ceremony, Tian Jian must leave Linzi City today and go to Donglai, where he will gather with the Tian clan in other parts of the Qi State and take a boat to Liaodi in the Yan State.

Except for Tian Jian, who stayed in Xiangping City, the other people of the Tian clan were all distributed and placed in the three counties of Xing'an County, Heihe County, and Xingdong County according to Ji Kang's edict, and accepted the management and supervision of the local government of Yan State.

At this time, Liao Shan, the minister and eldest husband of the Ministry of Rites of Yan Guo, came to Ji Kang's side, bowed down and said to Ji Kang:

"The hour has come, please ask my king to move to Linzi City."

Ji Kang nodded, stepped down the platform, boarded the car, and headed to Linzi City.

Wherever the car passed, the Yan troops along the way, lined up on one knee, saluted their own king.

"I am the king of ten thousand years! Ten thousand years of Yanguo! The slogan resounded in the sky.

Although Ji Kang has already experienced this kind of scene once in the country of Kei, he is still very intoxicated.

Suddenly, there was a noise in front of the car, and the car stopped.

Ji Kang was stunned, this ...... What's going on? Could it be that someone committed an assassination?

Before Ji Kang could ask what was going on? The attendant ordered Wang Cong to be outside the car and said to Ji Kang:

"Qi my king, Zhou Zi, the former secretary of Qi State, wants to meet my king at the east gate of Linzi."

"Oh." Ji Kang pushed the door of the car open and walked out.

Several Yan soldiers in front were tying up an old man with gray hair and beard.

The old man shouted to himself: "You let go of me, I want to meet Yan Wang Kang......"

Ji Kang knew that this person was Zhou Zi.

As soon as he saw Ji Kang walking out of the car, several Yan soldiers in front of him were busy kneeling on one knee.

The people of Linzi City, who were watching the ceremony at the city gate, also knelt down when they saw Ji Kang come out at this time.
