Chapter 3: The Tigers of the Western Qin Dynasty (4)
Four
Qin Ninggong ascended the throne at the age of ten, and began to move to Pingyang, in the third year of his reign, he sent an army to crusade against the Dangshe Rongdi, and fought against a soldier of the Bo tribe in Xirong, and the leader of the Bo tribe fled to Xirong, so the Qin State destroyed the Dangshe and occupied the territory of the Dangshe Rongdi. Duke Qin Ning reigned for twelve years. He died at the age of twenty-two.
Qin Ning had three sons: before his death, he made the eldest son Ying said to be the son; Ying Jia, the younger brother of Ying Shuo, is the same brother as Ying Shuo; Lu Ji, the concubine of Duke Ning, gave birth to a son. It was during this period that the bloody events took place.
After the death of Duke Qin Ning, the eldest concubine who belonged to Duke Qin Ning's father, Fuji, Wei Lei and the third father held military power in the court, forming a three-person government. Lu Ji was a beautiful and sociable woman in the harem of Duke Qin Ning. Back then, it was Fuji who rushed to Lu to usher in a new concubine for Duke Qin Ning. So the two of them have acquaintances on the way to greet relatives. Qin Ninggong died, and the relationship between Lu Ji and Fu Ji became more ambiguous, so Fu Ji first raised the issue of abolition. The eldest of the concubines, Fu Ji, had the most power, and when he proposed an idea with Wei Lei and the third father, the two had no choice but to agree. On the grounds that Izuko was the son of the princess of the Lu Kingdom and was worth a noble value, they decided to abolish the prince and proclaim Izuko as the monarch.
However, the government of the Qin State was also undergoing changes after the accession of the son. Because of the collusion between Fu Ji and Lu Ji, he manipulated the government and politics of the Qin State, which caused the indignation of the Qin government and the opposition. After a long time, a confrontation between the Fuji and the courtiers was formed. Fu Ji manipulated the son and became the only person in the court who said nothing, no different from the monarch. This caused dissatisfaction among the doctors in the DPRK and even Wei Lei and the third father. Within a few years, this Fu Ji got a strange illness, and even after repeated treatments, the imperial doctor of the Qin State did not get stronger, and passed away in the fifth year of the reign of the son. Lu Ji and Izuko began to suspect that the third father had framed the eldest concubine. Began to fortify the three fathers everywhere. I don't want to hand over the power of the government to the control of the three fathers.
In the sixth year of the reign of the son, the confrontation between Lu Ji, the son and the third father has reached the point of no compromise. As the son grows up day by day, the third father clearly feels that he will enter a desperate situation in the future. The third father couldn't wait for someone else to cut off his head, so he began to plot to get rid of the son. The third father sent his henchmen to secretly follow the son, and assassinated the son while he was out of the palace. and sent people to poison Lu Ji in the harem. Deko ascended the throne at the age of five and was killed in the sixth year of his reign. The third father and others killed the son, and in order to be able to give an explanation to the Qin State, they supported the original son Qin Wugong to ascend the throne. At this time, Qin Wugong, that is, about fourteen years old, Qin Wugong, who was deposed six years ago, had not yet seen the inside story of the imperial court, and when he re-ascended the throne, he already had a deep understanding of the struggle for power in the imperial court, especially the death of the son and Lu Ji. Over the years, Qin Wugong has not been idle in his years, but has devoted himself to soldiers and horses, and has practiced kung fu. When he was challenged in his family, no one expected that this young Qin Wugong, who was still at the age of Huangkou, would not only be able to take on the great responsibility of the clan, but more importantly, his wisdom and bravery would create an incredible miracle. Because the important ministers of the court dominated by the third father supported his own accession to the throne, the young Qin Wugong seemed to obey the words of the third father at the beginning of his ascension to the throne, and he did not have no trust, but there was a heart of revenge lurking in his heart. In order to avoid repeating the mistakes of his younger brother, Qin Wugong on the one hand responded to his third father with gratitude and humility, and on the other hand, he tried his best to seize the military and political power. Approaching the highest echelons of power in the Qin state. In the first year of his reign, Duke Wu of Qin decided to attack Peng Yarong, who was entrenched in the northeastern part of the Guandong region. This young monarch hopes to prove his military power through a battle. Peng Yarong Di is also a branch of the Dog Rong, and their sphere of influence is in the upper reaches of Luoshui. When Peng Yaren thought that the Qin State had just had a monarchicide incident and would continue to be chaotic, the young monarch Qin Wugong had already led the Qin army to approach their territory. This expedition, Qin Wugong not only personally led the army to the expedition, but also let the third father and other important ministers guard their homeland. In this way, those generals who led the army could only follow the young monarch to go on the expedition, and no longer acted in the eyes of the third father and others. can only obey in front of the chariot of the young monarch. Peng Ya fought without any suspense, and Qin Wugong, the young monarch of Qin, won a big victory in the first battle and won Peng Ya in one fell swoop. This battle played the authority and honor of the young monarch, and the generals who fought began to admire this young monarch from the bottom of their hearts. The young Qin Wugong on the battlefield was in golden armor, bravely taking the lead, without a trace of cowardice, which inspired the bloody and brave nature of the soldiers of the Qin army, and the murderous spirit made Peng Yarong Di tremble and flee in fear.
According to the usual practice, to defeat a large country, the Qin army should rest for a while, and the Qin state should celebrate the whole country. But Qin Wugong is not a person who follows the rules, the young Qin Wugong continued to lead the army to the east, along the way to see the tribe of Rong Di to capture, see a small group of Rong people to kill, until the foot of Mount Hua, before ordering the Qin army to rest and adjust. This break is three years.
In the past three years, Qin Wugong echoed with the Qin Palace in the west, on the surface, it seemed that the three fathers were guarding the city and he was on an expedition, but in fact, a situation of one country and two sides was formed. Under Mount Hua and in the old fiefdom of Concubine Qin, Qin Wugong witnessed the step-by-step foundation of the ancestors of the Feizi era. Especially when he came all the way to the east, he met the Qin people who had been living in the fiefdom from the Feizi period, which made him think about it, and the mood was particularly exciting, and this young monarch was determined to live up to the trust of his ancestors, and he must make the foundation of the Qin State more prosperous. Of course, Qin Wugong pulled out the team, gathered the old camp, and more importantly, gathered the important ministers of the Qin State under his banner under Mount Huashan, and began to brew the internal changes of the Qin State. In the depths of the heart of the young monarch Qin Wugong, there is a shocking secret hidden, or there has always been a heart disease that he dare not touch. That is, the kingdom of the father-in-law has not really been in the hands of the prince so far. The Qin clan has not yet realized his desire to truly rule the Qin state, so isn't that worthy of the hope of the ancestors?
During his three-year stay at the foot of Mount Hua, Qin Wugong not only reorganized the land of his ancestors and gathered the old people, but also commanded the army to level the northern Rongdi. The young monarch commanded and established high prestige in the army. Due to the eastward expedition to Huashan, he swept away some of the invading Rong Di, and expanded the land very widely, and the tactics of Qin Wugong were also impressed by the Qin army soldiers, and they were not talked about by the Qin people.
After a thunderous offensive, the Qin State basically controlled most of Guanzhong except Hexi, and occupied all the areas of the Western Zhou in Guanzhong. Moreover, Qin Wugong gathered many loyal and brave generals around him. At this time, the external situation of the Qin State was already famous.
In the third year of the reign of Duke Wu of Qin, through the Eastern Crusade, he achieved great results, eliminated Rong Diping, who was interspersed in the eastern part of the Qin State in the land of the Qin State, determined the eastern part of the Qin State, and also made the young Qin Wugong gain the faith and support of the generals through the Eastern Crusade. With this foundation, Qin Wugong was ready to carry out domestic reforms in a big way. He led his army back to the division and returned to the Qin palace in Chencang. The third father was caught off guard, and he was still living a king-like life and was at ease. Qin Wugong returned to the palace unexpectedly, which surprised the third father, an old minister. When he walked out of the palace gate in a panic, Qin Wugong had already led a large army into the Qin palace and ascended to the court.
The third father is not accustomed to bowing to the monarch, because since the death of Qin Zhuang Gong, the monarch is the eldest grandson of Zhuang Gong, and he has been shallower and younger than himself at the beginning, so he has never bowed down, let alone when it comes to the son, in the heart of the third father, you Qin Wugong is also supported by my third father who killed the son, and the third father is already a veteran of the four dynasties, let alone bow down to you, a young monarch. However, at this time, Qin Wugong not only grew a tall and burly body, but also possessed important military power in Qin.
After Qin Wugong sat down on the dragon chair, the third father stood on the left side, taking a step forward with a smile on his face. clasped his hands together and said: "The king led the army to the east to defeat Peng Rong and comfort the people of Laoyi, which can be described as a remarkable military achievement!" ”
Qin Wugong struggled to hit the case with his hands and shouted: "Bold Third Father, why don't you kneel when you see the widow!" ”
The three fathers were shocked into a cold sweat by Qin Wugong's case. Seeing that Qin Wugong was so strong, it was too unexpected for him, this kid may have stiff wings, thinking that he still had to avoid the edge, he took a posture and knelt down for half a day, and asked in a low voice: "The king still remembers that it was the old minister who supported you to ascend the throne......"
Qin Wugong sneered a few times and said: "The widow can't help but remember that your third father supported the widow to ascend the throne, and also remembers that your third father abolished the son back then. ”
The third father immediately felt bad, only feeling dizzy. Shook his body in the court.
Qin Wugong shouted: "You are guilty! ”
The third father hurriedly said: "Without the careful operation of the minister, it would be difficult for you kid to have today!" ”
Qin Wugong was furious, and shouted loudly: "Without the careful operation of your third father, the son will not die under the sharp blade, your third father messed with my Qin State Dynasty and killed my Qin monarch, the crime is extremely evil, not killing is not enough to deter the evil of the Qin State, and not killing is not enough to let the soul of the son be at peace with the sky!" According to the criminal code of my Qin State, the widow will destroy your three clans! ”
Only then did the third father realize that his life had come to an end, and not only that, but his family would also have to pay a heavy price for it!
In accordance with the legal code designated during the reign of Duke Wen of Qin, Duke Wu of Qin exterminated the three clans of the gang that killed the sons of the three fathers. The so-called three clans are the father's clan, the mother's clan and the wife's clan that destroy the parties. The reorganization of the dynasty and the elimination of dissidents led to the entry of the Qin State into a historical period of martial arts.
