"In the past, Yao Chan was located in an instant, the world was called beautiful, Shun Chan was located in Yu, and the four seas were respected. Yan Guo is the country of Zhaogong, and the poem of "Gantang" has been praised to this day, and benevolence is still in the ear. After the king is called the prince, if he can make the law Yao Chan Shun, let the country and the son of the country, then the good name and benevolence of the sea are all collected in the king, and the king is Yao Shun reborn. The king's retreat can enjoy the blessings of the lord in peace, and then he can receive the good name of the world. ”

In 316 B.C., in the Yan Palace, Jicheng, the Su Dynasty of the Zongheng family lobbied the King of Yan several times to persuade the King of Yan to pass on the throne to the son of Xiang Guo.

Since the succession of Yan Wangxu, the Yan State has been relatively stable, and it has been at peace with Zhao, Qi, Zhongshan and other countries. Yan Wang indulged in wine, and gradually got tired of political affairs.

Yan Wang Hui has always admired Yao Shun and advocated Confucianism, but now he is tired of political affairs and wants to delegate power.

Su Dai came to Yan Kingdom, Yan Wang treated him as a guest, and Su Dai made friends with Xiang Guozi, the powerful figure of Yan State.

Su Dai was in Yan Kingdom for several months, and when he saw such a situation, he saw the meaning of King Yan's heart, so he took the opportunity to make a statement and persuade King Yan to follow Yao Shun's example and pass on the throne.

Although King Yan has this intention, he groans in his heart, and the intention of passing on the throne has not yet been decided. Then he asked Su Daidao: "The widow heard that the city of Qi is strong, the rivers and mountains on the surface, and there is a fortress on the Great Wall, is this so?" ”

Su Dai replied: "Although the Qi State has Qingji, the Great Wall and other dangers that can be defended, but God does not give him a chance, and the people at home are tired, what can the monarch of the Qi State do?" If the king is not ashamed of the proton and bribes the ministers and generals of the Qi State with gold, jewels and jade, he can be destroyed. ”

King Yan couldn't help but be overjoyed, so he adopted Su Dai's advice and went to Qi with the crown prince Ji Ping as a hostage to show his sincerity.

He also bribed the ministers of the Qi State, so the ministers of the Qi State all said good things for the prince and persuaded the King of Qi to make friends with the Yan State.

The king of Qi was very pleased, so he agreed to the request of the king of Yan and formed an alliance with the Yan state.

And the prime minister of Yan Guoguo Zizhi married Su Dai and plotted to seize the supreme power of Yan State. So he assigned Su Dai and Prince Ping to go to Qi together to serve Gongzi Ping.

After Su Dai arrived in Qi and made arrangements, he started to play the King of Qi and said: "Please say King Yan for the king, offer the beauties of Yan for the king, and then send gold silk corn, thinking that the alliance is good." ”

The king of Qi was overjoyed, so he sent Su Dai to reply to the Yan Kingdom, and the King of Yan asked Su Dai: "The Qi State has Meng Weijun, and the virtuous name is known among the princes. ”

Sudai replied, "It's impossible. ”

King Yan said, "How can you say that, sir? Why is that? ”

Su Dai replied: "Because the king of Qi does not trust his subordinates, although they are virtuous, they are difficult to appoint, so it is difficult to dominate." Although Meng Weijun was virtuous, the king of Qi would not reuse him to rule. Today, the son of the country, the virtuous ability is no less than that of Meng Weijun, if the king can appoint his subordinates, he will be able to dominate and destroy Qi. ”

King Yan was overjoyed when he heard this, and said to Su Dai: "If it is as Mr. said, why can't the widow reuse Xiangguo?" ”

Su Dai said again: "King Shengming! If you want to seek the kingdom of Qi, you need to make the king of Qi relax and slack. The minister asked the king to select ten beauties of Yan to give to the king of Qi, and then give a number of gold silk corn, which will definitely make the king of Qi feel at ease. ”

King Yan said: "If you can dominate and destroy Qi, why do you regret the beauty of the country and the golden silk corn?" It's up to the gentleman. ”

So he ordered to choose ten beauties in the country, 500 catties of gold, and 50,000 pieces of corn to bequeath the king.

Not long after, King Yan said to Su Dai again: "The widow has the intention of Zen and the country, but he didn't get it for a while. Now hearing Mr. Wen's words, few people think it is okay. But about the Zen position, I don't know what the opinions of the ministers are? ”

Su Dai then said: "The king can gather the ministers and ask." ”

So King Yan set up a dynasty and asked the ministers: "Throughout the ages, there have been countless kings, and they are only called Yao Shun Shengde, what is the reason for this?" ”

Doctor Lu Maoshou said: "Tell the king, Yao Shun is called a saint, Yi Yao can make the world go down to Shun, and Shun can make the sky Yu Yu." Yan Wang asked again: "Then why is Zeyu alone in his son?" Start a home? ”

Lu Maoshou replied: "Dayu's original intention was not to pass on his son, but to pass on Boyi. But Dayu made Boyi act as an agent for political affairs, and did not abolish the prince. So after Dayu died, Prince Qi seized the world. So that later generations talked about this matter, thinking that the virtue of Dayu could not be compared with Yao Shun. ”

King Yan asked again: "If the widow wants Zen to be located in Xiangguo, can this matter really be carried out?" ”

Lu Maoshou knelt on the ground and bowed: "King Shengming! If the king can do this, it will be equivalent to Yao Shun! ”

King Yan couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard this, so he announced to his ministers: "Since the widow took the throne of Yan, the country has been peaceful and the people have been stable. The widow wants to practice the government of benevolence and virtue and create the people of Yan Kingdom. Now it can be imitated by the ancient system, Zen is located in the country! ”

Su Dai, Lu Maoshou and others knelt down and asked King Yan to say: "Since the king has decided to take the Zen position, he can choose an auspicious day, build a Zen platform in Yishui, worship heaven and earth, and hold a Zen throne ceremony." ”

King Yan said: "If the widow listens to the words of Erqing, he will definitely obey it." Now let's go and prepare first, ten days later, the widow will be located in Xiangguo! ”

After saying that, he retreated from the court, got up and looked at the apse.

"King Shengming! The king is Yao Shun reborn, and Yan Guo is very lucky! The world is very lucky! ”

In the echo of Su Dai and Lu Maoshou's kneeling and bowing, King Yan retreated from the dynasty satisfied, while His Royal Highness's ministers reacted differently, some echoed the voice, and some looked at each other......

Zizhi is the Xiangguo of Yan State, with a burly figure, a large waist and ten circumferences, very brave, and he is also very tough, and the Yan Kingdom and the Manchu Dynasty are afraid of him since the King of Yan.

Since Zizhi is in a high position in the country, he has made friends with Haoqiang, attracted the government and opposition forces, and was powerful in the Yan Dynasty.

Su Dai came to Yan again, and when he saw this situation, he thought that his lobbying words could be sold. first lobbied Zizhi, and Zizhi needed Su Dai's rhetoric, so he hit it off. and Su Dai became in-laws, although Su Dai was a guest on the throne of Yan, but he had been bought and won over by Zizhi.

Doctor Lu Maoshou and others also turned to the son and became the henchmen of the son.

Su Dai is the younger brother of Su Qin, the famous longitudinal and horizontal family who is worthy of the seal of the Six Kingdoms.

Su Qin lobbied the princes and was able to see it, and once served as the phase of the Six Kingdoms and was famous all over the world.

His younger brothers Su Dai and Su Li saw that he was able to lobby to win wealth and wealth, so they also followed his brother to learn the art of vertical and horizontal, and they also made small achievements.

Although it cannot be compared with his brothers Su Qin and Zhang Yi, since the death of Su Qin and Zhang Yi, the Su Dai and Su Li brothers are also the characters of the barbarian princes.

Su Qin was later defeated and died in the state of Qi. Su Dai came to the country of Yan again, ready to find a gap to lobby the king of Yan and obtain wealth. Sure enough, he was able to make friends with him, persuade King Yan to take the Zen position, and sell his rhetoric.

The purpose of the Zongheng family is just to win wealth with a three-inch tongue. As for the matter of loyalty to the king, protection of the country and love for the people, it is secondary.

Su Qin is like this, Zhang Yi is like this, and Su Dai is also like this.

What the Zongheng family does is like a businessman, the businessman pursues profit, and the Zongheng family also chases wealth and wealth, all for their own benefit.
