Chapter 131: History of the Jin Kingdom

The next day's race came as scheduled.

Wei Ziheng is ready to take part in this battle with the best attitude.

Their opponent doesn't seem to be outdone, Tian Ziming's sharp spirit is still so sharp, I don't know, will he release the world again in this game?

The audience was also looking forward to what kind of excitement these two teams would bring.

Soon the game began, and the men of both teams attacked almost simultaneously.

Wei Ziheng took the lead, with a fast sword, and Sun Qi took the lead with a sharp sword, killing into the enemy formation. Qinglian also stepped forward to attack.

Tianziming's side seems to be a little difficult, these three people are too strong in their younger lives, and Sun Qi has been able to monopolize one side with his superb strength.

Tian Ziming met the enemy left and right, and it was difficult to parry, even if the three of them had shown some good cooperation, but it was not as good as Wei Ziheng's combined attack.

Senior brother, the cooperation between the two is quite exciting, and even the audience mistakenly thought that there would be a wonderful scene of broken swords again.

However, this battle did not last long, Tianziming's side lost, and the other two swordsmen were injured to varying degrees and had been knocked out of the field, while looking at the other side.

Wei Ziheng was almost no big deal, and he became more and more brave.

Tianzi Ming smiled and said: "The three of you are very strong, it is my honor to fight with you, I hope there will be a chance next time." ”

Wei Ziheng raised his sword and thanked him with both hands and said: "Small things, as long as you are willing, we will meet in the future." ”

Sun Qi didn't answer his gaze and looked at the other side.

Soon the game was over, and even the spectators withdrew.

Wei Ziheng won two games with some ease.

Sun Qi was suddenly full of confidence: "I think we should fight for the third game, I think it is not a good choice for us to give up voluntarily." ”

Qing Lian had a different opinion: "The three of them use physical sword qi at the same time, how can we parry?" Unless Sword Soul is used, but this is an uncertain factor and I don't recommend it. ”

"It's better for us to be cautious, we still have to know how to make trade-offs in everything, and since we can get the promotion place, then just get it at the easiest price." Wei Ziheng is also full of confidence at this time, and it has been proved that although he prefers to discuss things in the court and talk about national politics. But the free swordsmanship is definitely the best of the younger generation, and being able to defeat the Son of Heaven with a relatively relaxed attitude can still prove a lot of things.

In the past, Wei Ziheng was still a little worried that there might be many masters in this world, and it was not easy for him to win. Chifeng smiled at the time and said, "Just when you thought that you couldn't beat anyone, you found out that no one could beat you." ”

Wei Ziheng didn't understand much about what this sentence meant at that time? Later, I vaguely understood a layer of truth, sometimes self-denial is not the right thing.

There will be no Wei Ziheng and their game tomorrow, and they will fight with Gu Tianjing and them the day after tomorrow.

However, there is still a battle to look forward to tomorrow, they are Xiao Qi from the first group, and there is also a sun covering.

The attention of this game is extremely high, both sides are masters, and it is obvious that the strength of the team will be higher, after all, they are already veterans of famous places. But as a representative of the younger generation, Xiao Qi still seems to want to have a good fight.

Wei Ziheng was also ready to go to watch the battle, but later, a person found him.

"You are?"

"You're Wei Gongzi, right?"

"In Xia Wei Ziheng, I don't know what this old gentleman has to do?"

"Sure enough, it's Childe, you! I can't imagine that more than ten years have passed, and you have grown like this. ”

"Are you ........."

Suddenly, a huge memory vortex poured into Wei Ziheng's mind. Many memories of earwax that have been almost forgotten are clearly in front of me at this time.

"You're the old butler?"

"It turns out that Childe still remembers me."

"Come in, please come in, it's actually you, uncle, why are you here?"

It turned out that this old man was a retainer of Wei Qing, who was a child of Wei Ziheng when he was a child in the Jin Kingdom. As a housekeeper in the family, he was already quite old at that time, and now it is estimated that he has been replaced, but he is still there.

Wei Ziheng was a little panicked for a while, and didn't know how to entertain: "It's really you, old housekeeper, I haven't seen you for ten years, I can't imagine that your hair is gray." ”

Wei Ziheng looked at the old man in front of him, and suddenly felt a little congested, and sighed from time to time that time was changing, things were wrong, and people were old and weak.

The old housekeeper said happily: "I came to find you specially for the son, because I know that the ten-year covenant, you are about to go north, just in time for the famous sword conference, I guess you will definitely participate, and sure enough, when I arrived in Linzi, the country of Qi, I heard your rumors." ”

"I see, old butler, you have come all the way to find me, so it is!" At this time, Wei Ziheng couldn't help but recall his childhood life in Yecheng, Jin Kingdom.

The two were very happy, Wei Ziheng was very smart and brought a cup of tea and handed it to the old butler: "How did you find me here?" ”

The old housekeeper was very honest and replied truthfully: "It is said that you are now a courtier of the Yue Kingdom and have become an envoy of the Yue Kingdom, so I will ask others where the envoy of the Yue Kingdom is?" And then I found it. ”

"It's been so hard for you. In other words, do you have anyone with you, old housekeeper? ”

"There must be! A group of us came to you at your father's command. ”

"I see, you're really bothered."

Wei Ziheng is quite moved now, he can't imagine that he is still worried about someone away from home? I couldn't help but shed a line of tears, this is the longing of distant relatives.

The old housekeeper and Wei Ziheng couldn't help but start discussing interesting things from the past.

While laughing, I was more moved, and this was the only time I felt the warmth of home so cordially in many years after I left home.

Although he is still very far away now, with this family affection, maybe the distance is no longer a distance.

The old housekeeper said: "The current national situation in the Jin Kingdom is very bad, and the Zhi family, which is the only one, may set off a major event at any time. ”

"I know this, and I officially want to help my family when I go home this time. This is already a matter of urgency. Wei Ziheng also said with a sad face.

The old housekeeper also suddenly sighed at this time: "It is really embarrassing that such a powerful Jin Kingdom has become like this now." The Six Secretaries of the Jin Kingdom, alas, ......"

Wei Ziheng also shook his head helplessly, this is already a fact and cannot be changed.

The former Jin Kingdom was so powerful, but it became weaker and weaker because of its own reasons, and this situation really made people feel embarrassed.

The two also inadvertently talked about the history of the Jin Kingdom, which was an extremely long history.

Jin State, Zhou royal vassal state, Zhou was named a marquis by Zhou Tianzi at the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty, Ji surname Jin, the first monarch Tang Shuyu was the son of Zhou Wu King Ji Fa, and the younger brother of Zhou Cheng Wang Ji Yu. The country name was originally Tang, and after Tang Shuyu's son Xie ascended the throne, it was changed to Jin.

The Jin State rose in the period of Jin Xiangong, "annexed the country seventeen, served the country thirty-eight", Jin Wengong succeeded to the throne in the battle of Chengpu defeated the Chu State, and hegemony in a war. During the Xianggong period of Jin, he successively defeated the Qin State in the Battle of Kun and the Battle of Peng Ya, and succeeded his father as the overlord of the Central Plains. During the reign of Jing Gong of Jin, the Jin State was defeated by its old rival Chu State in the Battle of Yi, and turned to the north, and after defeating the Qi State in the Battle of Qi, he invaded the Chu State itself in the Battle of Jin and Cai to attack Chu and break Shen. After succeeding to the throne, Duke Li of Jin defeated Qin and Di in succession, and defeated Chu again in the Battle of Yanling, regaining hegemony in the world. When the Jin Dynasty mourned the prince, the country was at its peak, the military ruled ten thousand times, dominated the Central Plains, and reached the peak of the Jin hegemony.

During the heyday of the Jin Kingdom, the territory covered all of present-day Shanxi Province, the eastern and northern parts of Shaanxi Province, the central and southern parts of Hebei Province, the western and northern parts of Henan Province, and the northeastern and western parts of Shanxi Province and Inner Mongolia. Because of its strong national strength, the Jin State often suppressed the three great powers of Qi, Qin and Chu, and dominated the Central Plains for most of the time. Of course, this is only part of the rhetoric.

The origin of the name of the Jin Kingdom is also very interesting.

Tang Shuyu was the son of Ji Fa, King Wu of Zhou in the Western Zhou Dynasty, and Queen Yi Jiang (the daughter of Jiang Taigong), and the younger brother of King Ji Yu of Zhou Cheng.

Because he was enshrined in the hometown of Tang Yao, his country was originally named Tang, and he was also called Tang Shuyu. Tang is on the east side of the Yellow River and the Fen River. Until his son Xie's father succeeded to the throne and migrated to Jinshui, he changed the country name to Jin. One said that he changed his name because of good shooting.

In the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, there was such a period of history.

Tang Shuyu's mother, Yi Jiang, the queen of King Wu of Zhou, was the daughter of Jiang Taigong, and legend has it that one night Yi Jiang dreamed that the heavens said to King Wu of Zhou: "I will let you have a son named Yu, and I will give Tang to him." When Yi Jiang gave birth to the baby, he saw that the word "Yu" was written on the palm of his hand, so he named his son Yu.

When Zhou became king, there was civil strife in the Tang Kingdom, and the Duke of Zhou destroyed the Tang. One day, King Zhou Cheng and Yu played a game, and King Zhou Cheng cut a leaf of a paulownia tree into the shape of a paulownia tree and gave it to Yu and said, "I will use this to seal you." Shi Yi then asked to choose an auspicious day to seal Yu as a prince. King Zhou Cheng said: "I'm joking with him! Shi Yi said: "The Son of Heaven has no jokes. As long as it is said, the historian should write it down truthfully, complete it according to etiquette, and sing it with music. King Zhou Cheng gave Tang land to Yu, so he was called Tang Shuyu.

Yu's son Xie succeeded to the throne and changed the name of the country to Jin, which was for the Marquis of Jin, and then went through the Marquis of Jinwu, the Marquis of Jin Cheng and the Marquis of Jin Li, and the deeds and chronology during this period cannot be examined. After the first year of the Marquis of Jin Jing, the Jin State had a measurable chronology, and in the eighteenth year of the Marquis of Jin Jing, the Western Zhou Dynasty broke out in the rebellion, and King Li of Zhou went out to the land. After Jinghou, he passed the Marquis of Jin and the Marquis of Jin Xian to the Marquis of Jin. During the Jin Muhou period, the Rongdi tribe in the north rose, and in the fourth year of the Jin Muhou, Muhou took the Jiang family, a woman from the Qi clan, as his wife.

In the seventh year of the Marquis of Jin, the Jin State attacked Tiaorong, and the Jiang family gave birth to the crown prince. In the tenth year of Jin Muhou, the Jin State attacked a thousand acres of Rong and achieved military exploits, and Jiang gave birth to a young son and became a teacher. In the twenty-second year of Jin Muhou, Jin Muhou followed King Xuan of Zhou to crusade against Tiaorong and Benrong, but failed.

In the twenty-seventh year of Jin Muhou, Jin Muhou died, his younger brother Uncle Yan established himself as the king, and the crown prince was forced to flee.

In the fourth year of Uncle Jin's death, the crown prince Qiu led people to attack Uncle Yan and set himself up as the monarch, this is the Marquis of Jin Wen. This move laid the groundwork for the civil strife in the Jin State after that.

In the tenth year of the Marquis of Wen of Jin, after the princes of the Beacon Fire Opera, King Ping of Zhou succeeded to the throne, and at this time, the remnant of King Yu of Zhou You, Gonghan, supported King Zhou and carried the king. King Ping of Zhou and King Xi of Zhou each claimed to be kings, and the two kings of the Zhou Dynasty stood side by side. After several wars, Hojing was already in dilapidation, and King Zhou Ping decided to move the capital to Luoyi, but the power of the royal family was too weak to complete the move alone. Marquis Wen of Jin, together with Duke Wu of Zheng, Duke Xiang of Qin, and Duke Duke Wu of Wei, joined forces to protect King Zhou Ping to complete the eastward migration.

In the twenty-first year of the Marquis of Jin Wen, the Marquis of Jin killed King Zhou Xian, ending the 21-year situation of the Zhou royal family and stabilizing the situation in the early years of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.

This is the early history of the Jin Kingdom, and the following content is also the Quwo Daiyi mentioned before, which is also the origin of the bane of the six secretaries of the Jin Kingdom.
