Immediately afterwards, he began to analyze the disadvantages of attacking Lu and the benefits of attacking Wu. Ah Ci asked Tian Chang to retreat left and right, and quietly said to Tian Chang: "As far as I know, Xiangguo has some discord with the minister Guoshu and Gao Wuping. Guoshu and Gao Wuping led the army to attack the weakened Lu State, and they would definitely win; The result of winning is harmful to Tian Xiangguo, just imagine, the credit for this victory naturally belongs to Gao Wuping and the national book, the power of these people will continue to grow, and Xiangguo will face a dilemma because of this, and it will be a great harm to Xiangguo in terms of selfishness. ”

"What you said is reasonable, but this matter of attacking the country of Lu is so easy, it is better to let the prime minister personally take command and sweep away the country of Lu, isn't this credit to me?" Tian Chang's thief heart is not dead, but he has a performance of wanting to make meritorious contributions!

Zigong saw that Tian Chang admitted the truth of his words, and then restored his own face: "This is not good, you are old and high, as soon as you leave the phase, in case there is an accident and someone will fight back a big rake, will not be affected by this, once you go out, there must be a lot of sequelae, such as empty consumption of the treasury, the crusade of the princes, the crushing of the big powers, the counterattack of the Wu State, etc., these can appear, not afraid of 10,000 just in case, it is better not to go!" But there's a better idea here! ”

Tian Chang heard that there was a better way, so he urged Zigong again and again: "Mr. Dacai, don't talk about it quickly!" ”

"Xiangguo, think about it carefully, if you can manage to make Guoshu and Gao Wuping lead troops to attack Wu, the two of them will inevitably be defeated, then Guoshu and Gao Wuping will face difficulties, which is very beneficial for Xiangguo to hold power. First of all, the strength of the other party was reduced, and secondly, the other party was destroyed by taking advantage of the situation, which was a million profits! Even if they don't come to them, at least in the future, they will see you, the old minister, and they have to be respectful! ”

Under Zigong's analysis, Tian Chang finally realized that he was wrong. If he leads the soldiers and horses of the four major families of Gao, Guo, Bao, and Yan in the Qi State to capture the weak Lu State, then the real credit must be those of the big families, who will not be able to stand up in front of them in the end, and it will be their four major families who will benefit in the end, and their own interests will inevitably be damaged.

On the contrary, if he led the soldiers and horses of these people to fight against the powerful Wu State, then the soldiers and horses of these people would inevitably suffer heavy losses, and after losing the army in their hands, the strength of these four families would inevitably be damaged. Under this situation, the strength of his Tian clan will inevitably surpass that of the Gao, Guo, Bao, Yan and even the monarch of Qi, in this case, he will be able to rest assured that he will be able to monopolize power and implement his plan to usurp the throne of the monarch of Qi.

Tian Chang listened to Ah Ci's analysis, and naturally figured it out, and was very happy. But considering that the Qi army led by the four major families has already arrived in Wenshui, if he suddenly turns around and attacks Wu again, how can this be done, when others say that he is capricious, they will definitely doubt his motives, so they are a little hesitant.

Ah Ci saw that Tian Chang regretted it, and his thoughts became a little worried, so he said to Tian Chang: "I said Lord Zuo Xiang, in fact, you don't have any difficulties, as long as you can tell them to stand still, in case Wu attacks the south of my Qi country from behind, I will immediately go to Wu State to persuade King Wu to come to save Lu Waqi, you know this reason, so that Qi State has enough reason to attack Lu State." ”

Tian Chang agreed with Ah Ci's idea: "This is really a good method, but can you really say that Wu Guo is moved?" ”

"No matter whether you say it or not, you have to stop the use of troops in the Lu State, which will benefit you and do no harm!" Zigong said in a snort!

It seems that he can only use the reason that he heard that Wu is coming to attack Qi State, and ask Guoshu not to attack Lu State for the time being.

Tian Chang and Jian Zhi served as the left and right ministers respectively, and jointly assisted Qi Jiangong. Tian Chang was afraid of the prison in his heart, and because the prison was favored by Qi Jiangong, Tian Chang had no way to get rid of the prison. Tian Chang pondered for a long time, and re-used his father Tian Qi's measures, using a big bucket to lend grain to the people, and then using a small bucket to take it back, so as to win the hearts of the people, so he was praised by the people of Qi.

When the doctor of Qi went to court, Yu Ying admonished Qi Jiangong and said: "Tian Chang and Jian Zhi cannot be tied, you should choose one of them!" "Qi Jiangong didn't listen to Yu Ying's words, his old man is the king, he naturally knows the art of trade-offs, how can he be a big family, when the time comes, won't he put himself in the air, let these two goods pull each other, and he can sit back and relax.

Jian Zhi usually has a discord with Tian. In the spring of the fourth year of the reign of Emperor Jian of Qi (481 B.C.), when he was in prison in the late dynasty, he happened to meet Tian Reverse murder, and immediately arrested Tian Reverse into the palace.

At that time, the Tian family was in harmony, so the clansmen let Tian Cheng pretend to be sick and visit the prison, and sent wine to the guards, who drunk and killed the guards, so that Tian Cheng could escape.

At the beginning, Tian had a distant relative named Tian Bao who wanted to be a retainer of the prison, and was recommended by his grandson, and finally became the retainer of the prison and was favored by the prison. Seeing that this had happened, Jian Zhi said to Tian Bao: "This Tian Chang's family is very bad and lawless, I want to expel and kill all the direct descendants of this Tian Chang, and let you be the sect master of the Tian family, what's the matter?" ”

Tian Bao replied: "I am a distant clan of the Tian clan, and I am no more than an outsider in Tian Chang's heart. Besides, there are not many people in the Tian clan who disobey you, but there are only a few people, why should they all be expelled? "The watchman did not listen. Tian Bao had no choice but to inform Tian Chang and said: "Jian Gong is fortunate to be in prison, and he will destroy the Tian family, if the Tian family does not do it first, the Tian family will be finished, and it will definitely harm your Lord Zuoxiang." ”

The prison stayed in the palace of the Duke of Qi Jian. On May 13 of the same year, the four Tian Chang brothers went to Qi Jiangong's residence by car and wanted to kill Jian Zhi. The prison was still in the tent, and he didn't know what the situation was, so he went out to greet him in a daze, and when he saw Tian enter and close the palace door, he immediately knew that something was wrong.

gathered a group of eunuchs to resist the Tian clan, and Tian went on a rampage, killing the eunuchs, and the momentum was like a bamboo. At this time, Qi Jian was just and his favorite concubine were drinking and having fun in Tantai, and Tian Chang brought a large number of guards to force Qi Jian Gong into the palace. As the lord of the country, Qi Jiangong was naturally unwilling to suffer such humiliation, and he was about to attack Tian Chang when he picked up Ge.

Taishi Ziyu said: "Tian Chang didn't dare to make trouble, he was eliminating harm for the country." Qi Jiangong stopped.

Tian Chang went out of the palace and heard that Qi Jiangong was still angry, and he was afraid that he would be killed, so he wanted to flee, saying: "Where there is no king, how can you hang yourself from a tree!" Tian Wei refused, drew his sword and said: "I said, brother, you are too timid and afraid, do you have to start again with so many industries of our Tian family?" Hesitation and cowardice are the bane of bad things. If the escapees are not killed, the ancestors of the Tian family will not be spared. ”

Tian Chang stayed after hearing this, and his mind was already determined, so he sent troops and horses to attack the prison. The Jianzhi's men gathered their disciples to fight each other, but when they lost and planned to flee, the Tian clan pursued the Jianzhi and killed him.

At that time, Qi Jiangong was also afraid of the duel between the two and fled outside. Tian Chang captured Qi Jiangong in Xuzhou. Qi Jiangong said: "If I had listened to the words of the Imperial Martingale earlier, I would not have fallen to this point. On the fifth day of the first month of June, Tian Chang was afraid that Qi Jiangong would kill him after he was reinstated, so he killed Qi Jiangong in Xuzhou, and supported Qi Jiangong's brother Lu Biao to succeed him, which was for Qi Pinggong.

In 481 BC, after Qi Pinggong succeeded to the throne, he appointed Tian Chang as the prime minister, and the family was dominant. After that, Tian Heng monopolized the power of Qi and punished the Bao and Yan clans. Tian Chengzi's fiefdom is larger than the area directly under the jurisdiction of Qiping Gong.

Tian Chang killed Qi Jiangong, Confucius fasted for three days, and asked Lu Aigong to crusade against Tian Chang, Lu Aigong felt that this Confucius was really stupid, Lu Guo's power was so weak, and he had to use his sword in vain, in fact, this thing could have been done by other countries, and I don't know why Confucius was so hot and weak in long-arm management, so he asked Confucius to ask Ji Sun Fei.
