Just as the guards were about to come and grab Wei Si, suddenly someone not far away shouted:

"Presumptuous, you daring fanatics!"

Everyone looked in the direction where the voice came from, and saw a middle-aged man wearing the crown of the Son of Heaven and a group of honor guards walking over.

After Han Gongzi Shu saw this person, he couldn't help but change his face, and after his entourage hurriedly walked over and didn't know what to say to him, Han Gongzi Shu asked the man wearing the crown of the Son of Heaven:

"Zhou Tianzi is still alive, why do you dare to act so boldly and pretending to be Zhou Tianzi here?"

The middle-aged man replied:

"This is our Zhou Wangji, not your South Korea, so Han Shu Gongzi, please be more restrained! As for what you, this kid said, to one person pretending to be the Son of Heaven, now I will tell you that my father has officially passed on to my Ji Yan! ”

After speaking, he said to an accompanying official on the side:

"Read the edict to Han Shu Gongzi!"

The accompanying officer opened a bamboo book in his hand and read it:

"Decree of the Son of Heaven: Prince Ji Yanren is dignified and sympathetic to the people...... He was specially appointed to succeed to the throne as the thirty-seventh generation of the Zhou Son of Heaven. ”

As soon as the accompanying officials finished speaking, a general came to report to Ji Yan:

"Qi Qi Son of Heaven, Ji Gen, the Duke of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, is now leading 30,000 soldiers and horses to the east gate, saying that he wants to come in to meet the Son of Heaven!"

Ji Yan asked the general:

"Then why don't you hurry up and invite the Duke of Eastern Zhou in? Do you need to be instructed by one person in this matter? ”

The general's face was a little panicked, and after looking at Han Shu, Wei Si and others on the side, he said:

"This ...... This...... This! ”

Ji Yan saw that the general hesitated, so he said:

"Don't be verbose, if you have something to say, there are no outsiders here!"

Only then did the general dare to speak:

"The Duke of Eastern Zhou said that he wanted our guards to let his 30,000 soldiers enter our Luoyi City, claiming that it was to protect Zhou Tianzi, so the young generals and others did not dare to let them go, and came to ask the Son of Heaven for you!"

Ji Yan was startled, and his expression became a little flustered:

"Doesn't this Eastern Zhou Gong want to rebel?"

Han Gongzi Shu next to him laughed very proudly at this time:

"Haha...... Haha, the Duke of Eastern Zhou is here to expose you, the person who pretended to usurp the throne of Zhou Tianzi. ”

Wei Si immediately shouted at Han Shu angrily:

"Boy, don't talk nonsense!"

Ji Yan hurriedly walked over to Wei Si at this time, and then asked:

"King Wei, do you have a good plan to relieve the siege of our Zhou royal family?"

Wei Si did not answer Ji Yan immediately, but asked rhetorically:

"Is the Son alive now?"

Ji Yan replied:

"My father is still alive!"

Wei Si then said:

"In that case, let's go and meet the Son of God first!"

So Ji Yan took everyone and Wei Si into the palace together.

When everyone arrived in front of the Son of Heaven's dormitory, the Son of Heaven Ji Ding actually walked to the high platform outside the hall with the support of the Duke of the Western Zhou Dynasty and an official.

When everyone saw the Son of God, they immediately began to salute.

Wei Si took the opportunity to take a look at Ji Ding, the son of heaven, from a distance, and found that his face was pale at this time, and it seemed that it was already very difficult to stand, as if he had run out of oil and dried up.

Suddenly, the Son of Heaven Ji Ding spoke:

"Ji... Ji Yannai is my designated heir and your next Zhou Tianzi, so you don't need to doubt it, and don't... Don't give it to those who have a heart... Take the opportunity to... I...... One... One of them knew that his fate was not long in coming, and then he ...... However, although his life is ...... It's not a big deal...... There is no great fault, and it is ...... It's barely enough... Barely ...... Defend the ancestral foundation... Foundation......! ”

Before he finished speaking, his neck suddenly crooked, and he lived forever.

After the death of the deceased Zhou Tianzi Ji Ding, he was called King Shenliang of Zhou, and he was also the penultimate son of heaven in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.

When everyone heard the news of Zhou Tianzi's death, they knelt on the ground and cried bitterly, and the wail came out of Cheng Zhou for a while, and immediately the people of Luoyi burst into tears for Zhou Tianzi's death.

Originally, he was invited by Han Heyangjun and Gongzi to lead troops to blackmail Ji Yan, the crown prince of the Zhou royal family, but now he heard that Zhou Tianzi had died, and Ji Gen, the important minister named the Son of Heaven, had to quickly leave the army and enter the palace alone.

The death of Zhou Tianzi was naturally a big event, so the new son of heaven Ji Yan immediately ordered someone to prepare a summons, and then sent them to the countries one by one, inviting the monarchs of various countries to attend the funeral of the Son of Heaven.

However, this kind of invitation is completely a far-fetched face problem, as early as the period of King Zhou Yi, there have been many princes who do not come to pay tribute, and even do not participate in the funeral of the Son of Heaven, and when the death of King Ji Xi of Zhou Lie, there are only Qi, Wei, Han, Zhao, and Lu Five Kingdoms, and the ceremonial ones sent famous envoys to attend the funeral of King Zhou Lie, and other princes and even envoys were unwilling to send them again.

Therefore, Ji Yan's edict to the vassal states can naturally only be a symbolic notice to the countries, which is actually of no practical significance.

Wei Si came to see Ji Yan at this time, and naturally heard that he was preparing to inform the nations that the Son of Heaven had died and he would succeed to the throne, and his expression was obviously very depressed, so he came over and said to him:

"Son of Heaven, you must want other princes to come to the funeral of the Son of Heaven and your succession ceremony like this king, right?"

Ji Yan nodded, and said helplessly:

"Of course I hope for this, but how can we have a long history of decline in the Zhou royal family, and it has long been without the appeal of King Wu and King Cheng, and now we have to rely on the alms of the surrounding countries to survive, alas, in fact, this succession ceremony can be waived, and everyone wants to be exempted!"

Wei Si couldn't help but feel a little sympathetic to Zhou Tianzi:

"In this case, if this king drafts an edict for the Son of Heaven to invite the monarchs of all countries to come, I wonder if the Son of Heaven is willing?"

Ji Yan was overjoyed and looked at Wei Si:

"King Wei, is this true? Are you really willing to help a man write a letter of state and invite the princes to my father's funeral? ”

Wei Si nodded:

"This is as it should be, after all, you are the Son of Heaven and the co-lord of the world, and although we have all claimed our own kings, we are still your courtiers!"

Ji Yan looked at Wei Si very movingly:

"King Wei, you are simply the Duke of Zhou of our royal family alive now!"

Wei Si replied:

"The name of the Duke of Zhou, this king does not dare to be it, the Son of Heaven, you are assisted by the Eastern Zhou Duke and the Western Zhou Duke."

Ji Yan said at this moment:

"Since King Wei, you still look at Yu Yi now, then as long as you say a word from King Wei in the future, then the matter of your Wei State is the matter of my Zhou royal family!"

The purpose of Wei Si's visit to the Zhou royal family is actually mainly to imagine that Cao Cao, who he had learned from his book, brought the Son of Heaven to order the princes, so that Zhou Tianzi could obey his orders in the future, but now it is just the beginning, let him be moved by himself first.

However, at this time, the appeal of Zhou Tianzi was not as good as that of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, who still had appeal at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Although Zhou Tianzi is the nominal co-master, this co-owner is just the kind of person who asks you to give you a piece of candy when they can use you in the eyes of the nations, and when they don't need you, they don't even have time to take care of you.

So the edict drafted by Zhou Tianzi and signed by Wei Si was sent to the vassal states.

Due to the chaos in the Yan Kingdom and the scorching stage of the war, it is naturally impossible to attend the funeral of the Son of Heaven Ji Ding.

After receiving this edict, the monarchs of Qin, Chu, Qi, Han, Zhao, Song, Lu, Yue, Wei, and Zhongshan and other ten countries actually expressed their willingness to come to participate in the funeral of Ji Ding, the son of Zhou Tianzi, and the succession ceremony of Ji Yan.

Because among these countries, some countries are worried that the king of Wei will control the new Zhou Tianzi in this Zhou Wangji alone, and it will naturally be unfavorable to their own country in the future, and these two countries are Han and Zhao.

There are also a few countries that have been thinking about the Jiuding of the Zhou royal family, and they are naturally worried that these Jiuding will fall into the hands of Wei, and these three countries are Qin, Chu, and Qi.

The last Song, Lu, Zhongshan, Yue and Wei Guo, but because this edict was signed by the King of Wei, and in order to protect their own country, in order to have a good relationship with Wei, which is now second only to Chu in strength and equal to Qin and Qi, its monarch is also bound to come.

In fact, Wei Si had already calculated these in his heart, otherwise he would not have invited the princes to come to Zhou Wangji on his behalf in Zhou Tianzi's edict.

At this time, there was another crisis in Zhou Wangji, it turned out that after Ji Gen, the Duke of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and Han Gongzishu returned to the Eastern Zhou military camp outside the city, the two of them actually ordered someone to send in a letter of crusade against the Son of Heaven.

The content of this edict is actually counted when today's son Ji Yan is not in the right position, and it is to persecute the dying Son of Heaven to pass on himself, so in the name of the Son of Heaven, he drafted an edict to crusade against Ji Yan, and the two of them don't know when they found an heir of Prince Zhou who is in exile in South Korea to replace Ji Yan, the new son of heaven.

After Ji Yan received this war letter, he had to make a separate appointment with Wei Si and Ji Chao, the Duke of the Western Zhou Dynasty, to the palace and urgently discussed.

I only heard Ji Yan say with a worried face at this time:

"This ...... This...... How can this be? How is it good? ”

I only heard the Western Zhou Dynasty Gongji Dynasty say first:

"This Ji is a restless person at all, how can the king of Xian back then be very fortunate to Ji Gen, and he didn't listen to me, and after the first king succeeded to the throne, he had already exposed his unscrupulous ambitions, and now he dared to lead troops to persecute the Son of Heaven, I think it is better for me to go back to our Western Zhou Kingdom now and transfer all the soldiers to protect the Son of Heaven, right?"

Ji Yan shook his head:

"Even if you transfer all his soldiers, horses and people to the Duke of Western Zhou, I'm afraid it will be too late, and now I heard that there seem to be 30,000 more Korean elites outside the city, and they have just joined Ji Gen's army, otherwise they would not be so bold and reckless to shout at one person."

The Duke of Western Zhou was obviously also a little anxious and at a loss:

"That'...... So what now...... How is it good? ”

Wei Si hesitated for a moment and then spoke:

"Son of Heaven and Duke Zhou, you two don't have to be in such a hurry, this king has a way to stop the ambition of Ji Gen and Han Gongzishu!"
