Seeing that he was not convinced by Song Jinggong, Huan Wei only accepted it provokingly, and continued to lead the men and horses to chase and kill Old Man Kong in private. As a result, Confucius was driven out of the Song Kingdom in desperation, and Song Jinggong was unhappy and had a great feeling of slavery and bullying his master.

Helpless, Confucius could only leave the Song Kingdom. Let Zigong stay here to deal with the aftermath, anyway, Duanmu's family has a big fortune, although the business of the Song State is not as good as that of the Cao State of the Lu State, but it is also a lot.

Although the Huan family was a wang clan during the Song Jinggong period, Song Jinggong understood it and began to manipulate the Huan family, and later these people fled from the Song Kingdom one after another, like birds and beasts. The reason for this is in Huan Wei alone.

At that time, the Huan family was the strength that Song Jinggong relied on, and Huan Wei was especially favored by Song Jinggong. What is the reason? Gongzichen (Jing Gong's younger brother) and Gongzidi (Jing Gong's cousin's mother's brother) were like-minded, the two were indignant, and they both won the throne in the king's seat, but they were powerless to change the overall situation of the Song Kingdom, mainly because the two brothers were afraid of being victimized by Jing Gong and Huan Wei, so they left Song Jinggong with the descendants of Song Pinggong and Song Yuangong, who were not powerful at that time, and occupied Xiao (now northwest of Xiao County, Anhui).

Le Daxin, who used to be the right teacher of the Song Kingdom, also followed them, this Song Jinggong is indeed too short of manpower, and he has lost so many backbone forces at once, so he is looking for someone to go there? That's why I thought of Confucius and his disciples!

Those brothers of Song Jinggong gathered some forces in Xiao Di and wanted to crusade against Huan Wei. Of course, if you want to have confidence to do such a thing, you have to betray the country, in the twelfth year of Lu Dinggong (498 BC), Zheng Guo wanted to kill two birds with one stone, so he encouraged the two brothers to destroy and build them three cities for them to live in.

Song Jinggong and Huan Wei thought that this force would collude with foreign enemies and sooner or later become a great disaster for the Song Kingdom, so they asked Xiang Chao to crusade against them. Xiang Chao won the first battle, unstoppable, he didn't want Zheng Guo to make a move, he spent a lot of money to build a city for them, and trained his troops, so that the two sides could be equal, so that Song Guo climbed down, but he didn't expect to lose so soon.

Worried that Zheng Guo would be in more trouble in the future without this deed, he rose up and directly sent troops to rescue the two brothers and surrounded Xiang Chao. Huan Wei had no choice but to lead troops to reinforce Xiangchao on the order of Song Jinggong, and as soon as he arrived there, he was also surrounded by the Zheng army and fought to the death.

This Huan Wei force battle could not be won, so he had to flee back. The team behind the buttocks was all left to Song Jinggong's pair of difficult brothers, Zheng Jun recovered all the places occupied by the Song army, while Jing Gong's two brothers took back all the Song soldiers, and as a result, they grew stronger.

Zheng Guo's calculation is that the cost of using espionage warfare is much lower than that of war, and this contract is very important to Zheng Guo, and Zheng Guo himself is not rich, so poor that he can't let out a few farts!

This time Huan Wei originally lost the battle, but because his reinforcements allowed Xiang Chao to withdraw safely, Song Jinggong did not blame him for his failure, but praised him for being brave and not afraid of death, and he also had the credit of saving Xiang Chao, the main reason is that Song Jinggong has no capable people in his hands to help him govern the country, and there is really no way to become famous!

Huan Wei also felt that he was great, and he was even more arrogant, thinking that his fiefdom saddle was too far away to be as good as thin land, so he asked Song Jinggong to change his fief to thin land.

This guy is also a little bold, Bodi is in the north of the national capital Shangqiu, fools all understand that this is a disobedient heart, if he thinks about it, this kid will rebel in the future, gather the power of Bodi, and easily settle the Song capital Shangqiu, what do you want to do with this land if you don't have a rebellious heart? Does the lord of the Song Kingdom also want to sit?

Song Jinggong immediately objected and said, "That's not good." Bodi is where my Yin Shang ancestral temple is located, how can I give it to you? Gave you where my ancestors slept? There is no peace underground! However, in order to appease him, Song Jinggong merged seven other cities into the saddle and gave them to him. But Huan Wei was not satisfied with his hard work and achievements.

Song Jinggong also felt Huan Wei's rebellious heart, although Confucius was no longer here, Zigong was still here, and secretly met with Zigong who Confucius left behind to deal with the aftermath, and let him come up with a ghost idea.

Zigong thought for a while, and then said: "In this way, you first let your wife invite him to the banquet, and the woman invites him, he must not be wary, throughout the ages, the emperor has killed people in laughter, this banquet is the best choice, since the whole life, there have been so many parties, the early lord diluted the vigilance of the banquet, and then took the opportunity to kill him." ”

Crooked received the news from the insiders of the Huan clan, so he rubbed his hands and said: "Little barbarian master, I have already contacted you, I don't know if you are willing to participate in a swordsmanship exchange competition?" ”

"The old lady's martial arts don't matter, she can last more than ten games, but the old lady's character doesn't like this kind of violence very much, if there is a lot of appearance fees, it's still okay." It's not that the little brute girl doesn't want to be better than the black sword, but wants to fight for more benefits for herself.

Although the courage is small, but the mind is very shrewd, he can understand the voice outside the strings, and said in a low voice: "This time to win the money of the Huan Wei family, make him bankrupt, he invited a death row prisoner in the prison, you must know that there are many vicious criminals in the prisons of the Song Kingdom, they are definitely outlaws, the master of Zigong intends to give up, mainly considering your safety, the game has a certain danger, but that Huan Wei opened a ten-to-one odds, you are one, the opponent is ten, of course, you can bet on the opponent to win." ”

There is still a sentence that has not been said: "If you bet on yourself to lose, you are betting on your life." ”

For the odds of one to ten, Xiao Manniu is still very interested: "Do you have any information about those opponents?" "The little brute girl thinks it's strange, can the imprisoned prisoners of the Song Kingdom compare to the black sword? Such a rule is not strange at all in Huan Wei's thoughts, compared to the gambling table of the black sword is opened by his family, looking sideways, Zigong also shook his head slightly, even he can't tell this Huan Wei's pulse, he is confused.

Crookedly shook his head and said: "There are many death row prisoners, who will prepare so many materials, and I don't know who will participate, it is completely a lottery type, but the fairness of the game can be guaranteed, otherwise Huan Wei's casino will lose its trust in the world, and it will be over at that time!" And this kind of competition has always been very secret, even if it is a bag of inquiry and know-it-all, it is absolutely banned. ”

After thinking about it, the little brute said: "It doesn't matter if the old lady doesn't have information, but I don't know how to make that Huan Wei lose money, just get him down." After hearing this, he drove the carriage out, and in less than half a day, he came back and said to the little manniu: "Little manniu master, let's go together tomorrow, Huan Wei will send someone to pick us up, and then we will go over together." ”

"Yes." The little brute immediately agreed. It is said that all the prisoners who were imprisoned in Shangqiu Prison never came out again, not because of abuse, but because the prisoners here had a relatively long sentence until they died, unless they were originally meant to be Huan Wei and they were better than the black sword, otherwise 90% of the prisoners had not yet reached the time of release.

The prison is located in the west of Shangqiu and covers an area of about 200 acres. At the end of Shangqiu, there is a huge black sword competition field, which is extremely luxuriously decorated, very close to the prison, and there are a large number of prison guards patrolling and servants. There are a lot of people who look at the black sword, and the most important thing is that these people buy who wins, and they can place orders temporarily.

Huan Wei and crooked said well, it is also equivalent to a contract between the people of the rivers and lakes, no one is willing to bear the price that needs to be paid for violating the morality of the rivers and lakes, this kind of contract is generally higher than the written word, that night, Zigong picked up two guests, one named Shi Wen'er, the other named Liu Wei, these two people are full of energy, they are all to buy a little man.
