"Convinced! Served! I'm really convinced! I think I learned swordsmanship from Master A Qing, looking for three thousand Yue army armor, no one is my opponent, the war Wu army killed nearly 100 soldiers and generals, no one can block my ten moves, I think that except for Master A Qing, the world is at my disposal, but I never thought that I would meet the little brother this time, I know that there are people outside the sky! ”

"Hehe" Zimo scratched his head embarrassedly.

Not to mention that Chi Songzi and Zimo continued to stay in Taoqiu City, and returned to Chengyang City to guard Fengziyu.

On the night of Zimo's removal of the cockscomb snake, General Nafeng wrote a report and sent someone to Linzi, the capital of Qi State, originally thought that the good news would be delivered quickly, and the king would reply quickly, but he couldn't hear back from the left and right, and the anxious Fengzi language group turned around, and he had said to Zimo that there would be a reward in the near future, but now that it has been so long, he has obviously lost his trust in Zimo. There was no way, so I had to send someone to the vertical capital city on the other side to ask General Meng Ye if he had a reply, but the answer was the same, and Meng Ye was also waiting anxiously. It's a long way from that capital, and I don't know a lot about it, so I don't know what it's going on.

Fengziyu and Na Mengye are on the border, but they don't know what happened to the king. In fact, it is very easy to analyze and understand, the actual controller of the royal capital, Zuo Xiangtian Heng, is busy dealing with family affairs, and he has no mind to care about the rest.

Why do you say that the actual controller of Qi is Zuo Xiang Tian Heng instead of the monarch? To say that this Qi country, in 469 BC, it was the reign of Lu Biao, surnamed Jiang, who was surnamed Lü. This Lu Biao ascended the throne in 480 BC, that year, Tian Heng, the left minister of Qi, launched a coup d'état, killed the right minister Kan Zhi and the monarch Qi Jiangong, and established the younger brother of Qi Jiangong Lü Biao as the monarch, and later generations called Qi Pinggong. This Tian Heng supported the enthronement of Qi Pinggong, so he monopolized the power, and punished the opponents Bao and Yan clans, making his Tian family dominant.

Tian Heng's means of taking Qi were despicable, and he was afraid that the princes would jointly kill him, so he returned all the land of Lu and Wei that he had occupied, and made a contract with the Jin State in the west and the Zhao, Wei, and Han clans of the Jin State, and exchanged envoys with Wu and Yue in the south. Tian Heng's despicable means annoyed a saint at that time - Confucius, this Confucius fasted for three days to pay tribute to Qi Jiangong, and then wrote to the king of Lu Guo Ji General Lu Aigong, asking Lu Aigong to send troops to crusade against Tian Heng, but at this time Lu Guo is also infighting, Ji Kangzi dictatorship, so that Shusun, Meng is very dissatisfied, Sanheng dumped each other, that Lu Aigong is busy dealing with Sanheng every day, making a mess, just at this time and got the information that Qi returned the land, finally had some comfort in his heart, and felt comfortable for a few days, at this time Confucius came to mention, He shirked it on the grounds that the national strength was not strong. This Confucius asked Ji Kangzi again, but he was also refused, and it turned out that Ji Kangzi was also bought by Tian Heng. Seeing that his proposal was ignored, Confucius shed tears and sighed: "There has been no way in the world for a long, long time, and no one is willing to adopt his own ideas. It is impossible to realize your own claims. ”

Internally, he was afraid that the people would be resentful, this Tian Heng was very talented, and after thinking deeply, he decided to reward the inside, establish merit, and get close to the people. He said to Qi Pinggong: "The exercise of kindness is what the people want, and it is up to you to do it; Punishment is disgusting, please let the ministers carry it out. "To put it bluntly, you do the good guys, and I will be the wicked guys. This method is contrary to ordinary people's thinking, and Qi Pinggong is willing to be a "white face". After doing this for five years, the power of Qi was under the control of Tian Chang. Gradually, the result of the dominance of the family was to make this Tian Heng's fiefdom wider than the area directly under the direct jurisdiction of the Duke of Qiping, and to divide the land of the Qi State from Anping (now Shichao Village, Linzi East Shili, Zibo City, Shandong) to Langya (now Linyi, Shandong) for its own use.

The ancestor of this Tian Heng family was originally the fugitive son of Chen State, until his ancestor Tian Wenzi generation, he began to assist Qi State, so his family has really been in Qi State for five generations, but the number of talents and the source of talents can not be compared with the traditional old nobles, this is not enough talents, how to gain a firm foothold? This Tian Heng is indeed talented, and he came up with a wonderful method, but this wonderful method is very funny.

One day, Tian Hengzheng was thinking about that talent while reading the Book of Songs, and happened to see "The Book of Songs: Siqi", which is a poem about King Wen of Zhou:

Siqi Daren, the mother of King Wen, Simei Zhou Jiang, the wife of the Beijing family. The eldest heir Huiyin, then Baisi male.

Benefiting the Zonggong, the gods are reckless and resentful, and the gods are intimidating. to the widow, and to the brothers, to the family.

Yongyong is in the palace, and Su Su is in the temple. If you don't show it, you won't shoot it.

The raging disease is not bad, and the martyrdom is flawless. If you don't hear it, you don't know it.

Adults are virtuous, and children are made. The ancients are invincible, and they are fashionable.

What does this poem mean? The approximate translation is as follows:

Graceful and dignified is Tairen, a good mother of King Wen of Zhou. The virtuous lady is Taijiang, the wife of the royal family lives in Zhoujing. Taiji's reputation can be inherited, and many boys are prosperous.

King Wen is filial to his ancestors, the ancestral gods have no complaints, and the ancestral gods have no pain. The model wife is a model, and the model brothers are the same, and the governance of the family and the country is prosperous.

It's really harmonious in the family, and it's really respectful in the temple. There is also a divine prison in the dark, and the self-cultivation is tireless and peaceful.

Now Xijon is not harmed, and the disease does not harm the people. The unheard is also appropriate, even those who have no advice hear.

Nowadays, adults are virtuous, and future children are edified. King Wen is tireless in educating people, and the scholars are all handsome.

This book, the essence obtained by different people reading is different, Tian Heng is reading this poem at the moment, and he is thinking about the family talent, but suddenly inspiration appears, and he is touched by the "big heir Huiyin, then Baisi man", Tian Heng said: "More boys prosper the family, right!" It's just that more boys are born and the family is prosperous! ”

Na Tian Hengru got the treasure, threw the scroll, walked out with his head held high, and beckoned to the doorman: "Go, choose some women for Benxiang to be harem concubines, the number should reach 100 people, the figure should be tall, and the appearance should be beautiful." ”

The man bowed his head to receive the order, but he was thinking in his heart: This Lord Zuo Xiang didn't know what he had done, and he wanted to choose a hundred women to be concubines at once, and it would take more than three months for each of them to be lucky once, could that body stand it? Forget it, no matter what he is, since the adults arrange it, just do it.

Although the man muttered in his heart, he was not slow to do things, arranged for his capable subordinates, and ordered that a hundred women must be selected in ten days. After a meal of chickens and dogs, all kinds of young women from near and far who were slightly beautiful were all selected into the palace.

Ten days later, Tian Heng got a report from the doorman, and the concubine had been selected, so let him go and see. Tian Heng followed the doorman to the group of women, and examined them one by one, and they were indeed very good. He stroked his beard and was very satisfied, stood on the steps and said with a smile: "You will officially enter the palace today after you are dressed up, and you will be the concubine of your own appearance, and you will eat and drink spicy food here, which is far better than you and other families." Don't miss home too much, it's your home from now on! ”

arranged a lecture, recruited two women to sleep that night, worked hard, and was busy sweating profusely. After three days like this, I found that I ran out of ammunition and food, and I couldn't arouse my interest anymore, and I was so tired that my eyes were full of dark circles.

This Tian Heng and Yi sat on the bed, feeling weak, but his mind kept thinking: "It's not a way to go on like this, I do it myself, and I don't have much to gain when I'm tired, if it's really like this, wouldn't it be in vain?" King Wen has worked hard in his life and is only a hundred sons, like me, not to mention a hundred sons, ten sons are going to be tired and lie down, and the successors are urgently needed, how can I be allowed to work slowly? This approach is inappropriate. This Tian Heng frowned tightly and thought about the plan.

At this moment, out of the corner of his eye, Tian Heng saw the next doorman walking in front of the door, looking at Xinna's concubine, ready to move. Seeing this, Tian Heng slapped his thigh: "There is!" Benxiang has raised so many doormen, why not let them help? ”

He had made up his mind, so he dressed and came outside, and called the doorman: "Dong Xu, are you looking for your true appearance?" ”

The doorman who was staring at Tian Hengji's concubine with his head down and squinting was taken aback, and when he looked up, he saw that it was the owner, and hurriedly stepped forward to give a salute: "Tian Xiang, Dong Xu came to report something, and I heard that Confucius, a member of the Nalu Kingdom, had passed away ten days ago, so I came to see you to inform you." ”

"Well, that Confucius is a generation of talents, and I admire it very much, you are good at this matter, and you should be rewarded!" Tian Heng said loudly, "If there is such an important thing in the future, you don't have to linger outside the door, you can go straight to the harem, so as not to delay things, if you can't find your true appearance, just ask the concubine of your true appearance!" ”

When Dong Xu heard this, his heart blossomed, and he hurriedly responded, and said a few more words and was about to retire, then Tian Heng said again! "Not only you, but also inform other doormen, but if you have anything, you can enter the harem at any time to find your true appearance."

Dong Xu took the order to leave, and Tian Heng stroked his beard and couldn't help laughing.

With Zuo Xiang's dictation, this Dong Xu really ran to the harem to find Tian Heng every once in a while, he was cautious at first, but later he saw that no one was restrained, and he became more and more bold, and he gradually became familiar with those concubines. From the initial language conversation, to the later eyebrows, and then the whispered love words, he gradually did some "adult things".

The opening of this sluice gate did respond to Tian Heng's wishes, in less than three years, his hundred concubines actually gave birth to dozens of children, most of them were boys, Tian Heng was happy to smile, and there were successors!

During this period, it was inevitable that some people would advise him to close the gate of the harem, and not let a group of doormen pollute the harem, but this Tian Heng not only listened, but also treated the person who entered the speech, claiming: "The door and guest of the prime minister are righteous men and gentlemen, how can they do such things, and besides, the concubines of the prime minister, don't you understand, they are all dignified and don't do that kind of thing." ”

Since then, this style has flourished, and in the past few years, there have been nearly 80 heirs of all sizes under his knees, comparable to King Wen of Zhou. When the heir was a little older, he arranged for a guest to teach him literature and science, and the guest chose his own son and cultivated it carefully, and there were many talents in later generations.

Although this Tian Heng did such a ridiculous thing, he couldn't let others really steal his own bloodline, so he determined that the next generation of heirs was Tian Pan early.

That Feng Ziyu and Meng Ye sent a report to ask for credit for Zimo, just when this Tian Heng was old, although he still firmly controlled the government, but his mental strength was insufficient, and among the many heirs below, there was a person in the dark, who seemed to be restless, this Tian Heng was not a soft-handed person, and these people who wanted to make trouble were not really their own heirs, so a knife and axe clicked a few, so the report was delayed for a while.

When the turmoil calmed down, Tian Hengfang asked people to find a report to deal with political affairs, and the reputation was "to share the worries of the monarch of Qi State". This Tian Heng looked at it, and his heart was overjoyed, this Zimo was so young and so wise, when he received his subordinates, let him serve the Tian family, so he asked people to immediately return the book, Feng Zimo was the doctor of Qi State, a reward of ten gold, and a volume of cloth.

This reward is not low, after all, it is a child. The person who replied quickly went to Chengyang City and Chuidu City to report the news respectively, and as soon as Fengziyu and Meng Ye received the good news, they were really relieved, and finally looked forward to Wang Cheng's reply. The two generals who defended the city temporarily got together, discussed, estimated the time, and Na Zimo should have returned home, so they decided to send a team of people to escort these rewards directly to Nahui Mountain.

Each of them chose a person to escort, and the two generals each wrote a letter and sent it to Huishan with the reward.

Besides, the master and apprentice stayed in Taoqiu for a few days, and the master and apprentice decided to set off, and when they left, Fan Li led a few guards to send each other far away. When the carriage and horses disappeared, Fan Lifang returned with Gao Baizhi and others, and along the way, they talked about Zimo.

"This little brother Mo is really a genius, he can understand the sword technique at such a young age, and he is so good at martial arts!"

"Yes, if we hadn't learned that swordsmanship, I'm afraid we wouldn't be the enemy of its triad!"
