The Duke of Qi Ai was killed by King Yi of Zhou, which was a shadow in the history of the Qi Kingdom.

King Zhou Yi wanted to rebuild the majesty of the Zhou royal family through this move. Kill chickens and set an example for monkeys, and send a warning signal to the powerful vassal states. Although this move could not save the political pattern of the gradual collapse of the Zhou royal family, this move was undoubtedly a heavy blow to the Qi State.

After the death of Duke Qi Ai, at the behest of King Yi of Zhou, Jiang Jing, the half-brother of Duke Qi Ai, was established as the Duke of Qi and was the Duke of Qihu.

In 866 BC, after his accession to the throne, the Duke of Qi Hu took a major migration. In order to prevent Ji Guo from plotting against himself again, he moved the capital from Yingqiu to a place called Bogu, which was located fifty miles northwest of Linzi, the later capital of Qi.

Qi Hugong hoped to stay away from the scene where Ji Hou had secretly accused him of trespassing. But Qi Hugong still made a mistake.

Because the people of Qi were not willing to follow this new monarch to build a capital in Xindi and work hard. After all, the comfortable life in the city and the fact that there was already a certain foundation for life, the subjects of Qi State opposed the imperial court's decision to move the capital. In fact, it was only his decision to Qi Hugong, because the important ministers of the imperial court were reluctant to move the capital. As a result, Qi Hugong's move caused the people of Qi to complain and laid the foundation for his resignation.

Qi Aigong's half-brother and younger brother Jiang Shan found that his opportunity had come.

Jiang Shan began to collude with several ministers to first express dissatisfaction with the relocation of the capital to Duke Qihu, and then when Duke Qi Hu led the people of Qi to move the capital to build the capital, Jiang Shan formed a sworn party with several important ministers of the court and the central government, and instigated the people of Yingqiu who were dissatisfied with the relocation of the capital to riot.

Just when Qi Hu Gong was busy building the capital, Jiang Shan Gongzi gathered his staff and party members, led the crowd to kill Qi Hu Gong, and expelled several of Qi Hu Gong's sons from the country, and since then he has established himself as the king, and he is the Duke of Qi Xian.

However, this Qi Xiangong also felt that Yingqiu was unlucky, and in his opinion, Bo Gu, who was under construction, was not very good, so he moved the capital from Bo Gu to Linzi. The waterfront is close to the river, and the geographical advantages are obvious, so Qi Xiangong began his own action to build the capital.

The descendants of Qi Xiangong passed on two generations to Qi Ligong, the grandson of Qi Xiangong.

Qi Li Gong Jiang Wuji was tyrannical, stupid and tyrannical, did not take the people to heart, sang and danced in the palace all day long, ate, drank and had fun, and used some greedy people to implement harsh governance on the people, and the people's lives were in dire straits.

So the Qi kingdom complained, and the people began to hate their king. Someone reported the news, secretly contacted the son of Qi Hu Gong to sneak into Qi State, and automatically organized an anti-Qi Li Gong armed force, and attacked and killed all the way to Qi Capital.

After a fight, Qi Li Gong died by the blade, and Qi Hu Gong's sons also fell in a pool of blood. Although the reason for this war is absurd and unruly, it is an internal competition between the ruling clans. Although Qi Li Gong was killed, Qi Hugong's sons were all killed in the battle with Qi Li Gong's men and horses, and several ministers within the Qi court had to come forward to clean up the mess. The people who were still alive in the Gong clan had no choice but to support Jiang Chi, the son of Duke Qi Li, as the monarch, which was what later generations called Duke Qi Wen.

When Duke Qi Wen ascended the throne, he did not forget the revenge of killing his father, and exterminated all the seventy people who participated in the killing of Duke Qi Li.

Although Qi Wen declared the family feud, the society of Qi was still in turmoil. Duke Wen of Qi ruled the state of Qi for twelve years, after which he was succeeded by his son Jiang Tuo. Jiang Tuo reigned for nine years and passed the throne to his son Jiang Gou, that is, the Duke of Qi Zhuang.

Jiang Gou, the Duke of Qi Zhuang, reigned for 64 years, not only ending the social turmoil and palace civil strife of the Qi State for more than 50 years, but also began to follow the governing law of Jiang Shang, the prince of the founding of the country, so that the Qi State gradually recovered the vitality of a great power.

Before his death, Duke Qi Zhuang left a message to his son Jiang Lupu: "Don't forget the revenge of my ancestor Mourning Gong's death, and ask Ji Guo to repay the blood debt." ”

Therefore, after Jiang Lupu ascended the throne, he had a clear principle of accidents, and he did not forget to ask Ji Guo to repay the blood debt, and ignored the affairs of the Zhou Dynasty. The Zhou royal family did not ask for half a tribute from the Duke of Qi. On the contrary, Zheng Zhuanggong, who dared to act against the Zhou royal family, regarded him as a confidant. Of course, the Duke of Qi was not the only one among the princes, but was hostile to the Zhou royal family and hated the Ji country, which made this bloody man look at the Ji country in the east with a pair of blood-red eyes.

Duke Qi decided to avenge the revenge of his ancestors, and since his accession to the throne, he has sworn to prepare to attack Ji Guo. So the border between the two countries was tense for a while, and after several conflicts, Qi Jiaogong found that it was really not so easy to destroy Ji Guo. Because Ji Guo is very vigilant, and there are heavy casualties on each other in border battles. So he thought of a strategy to unite many countries to eliminate Ji Guo.

What made Qi Ligong feel even more troublesome was that Ji Lihou, the monarch of Ji Guoguo, married his daughter to King Zhou Huan, and Ji Nu became the princess. It also presents the situation of the period of Qi Aigong back then, and there is a Zhou royal family behind Ji Guo. This made Qi Jiaogong very annoyed and helpless. It seems that the country of Qi has entered a new round of the era of being angry. Qi Ligong believed that this Marquis Ji Li would not give himself less trouble, so he had to hold back his ambition to crusade against Ji Guo, stop the pace of destroying Ji, and carefully observe the movements of the Zhou royal family. After all, it is the Zhou royal family of the dignified and powerful princes!

Zheng Zhuanggong's public confrontation with King Zhou Huan made Qi Gonggong see new hope. If someone can confront King Huan of Zhou, the Zhou royal family will not be able to play the role of the royal family in giving orders to the princes and dispatching troops. Then he Qi Gong can unite with other princes to crusade against Ji Guo. So what about uniting that prince to crusade against Ji Guo?

Qi Ligong first thought of the Lu State, hoping to unite the Lu State to realize his revenge plan.

However, what made it difficult for him to move was that the country of Lu was not so easy to unite. Lu Yingong's strategy was based on reconciliation in all directions, and he was not belligerent. It wasn't for Ji Hui who actively entertained Duke Zheng Zhuang after accepting bribes, and Duke Lu Yin would not easily participate in disputes between princes.

When Zheng, Qi, and Lu were crusading against Xu. Lu Yingong reluctantly participated in the alliance of the monarchs of Zheng, Qi, and Lu. At one time, the Duke of Qi wanted to invite the kings of the two countries to attack the Ji Kingdom together. What made Qi Yigong unspeakable was that Lu Yingong had married his clan sister to Ji Wuhou. This made Qi Jiaogong completely lose confidence in Lu State. can only focus on Zheng Zhuanggong.

Since the State of Qi and the State of Zheng destroyed the State of Yu, they also destroyed the State of Xu. Qi Gong felt that Zheng Zhuang Gong was a monarch who could achieve his revenge plan and do great things. has a common characteristic with himself is that he doesn't take the Zhou Dynasty in his eyes, he dares to pretend to be the king's order, and I dare to fish in troubled waters. As a result, the relationship between the two countries has reached a point where it is possible to plot big things.

On this day, Qi Gong repaired a book. In the letter of state, he counted the crimes of Ji Guo for several generations, and explained to Zheng Zhuanggong his desire to crusade against Ji Guo, hoping to get Zheng Zhuanggong's support.

In Zheng Zhuanggong's heart, a big country like Qi cannot give up. Zheng Zhuanggong received the secret letter of Qi and quickly replied. Since people follow their own Song Dynasty, Extermination, and Zhan Xu all the way to fight side by side, there is only one thing to ask for, how can they not help! Zheng Zhuanggong frowned.

Zheng Zhuang Gong repaired two letters of state, and one letter of state was written to the Duke of Qi. Zheng Zhuang Gong told Qi Gong that he Zheng Guo was willing to help with this, and had a plan to successfully complete the destruction of discipline. In the reply letter, he told Qi Ligong that the two countries each brought 500 troop vehicles, and on the grounds of alliance with Ji Wuhou, as long as Ji Wuhou agreed to the Three Kingdoms Alliance, as soon as the soldiers of the two countries arrived, Ji Guo could be taken. Another letter of state was addressed to Ji Wuhou. Very politely asked the Marquis of Ji Wu and the Qi Guild Alliance to alleviate the past grievances and grievances between the two countries.

After receiving Zheng Guoguo's letter, Qi Jiaogong was very proud. He thought in his heart that after so many years of hard work, he finally found a confidant like Zheng Zhuanggong. As long as Zheng and Qi join forces, Ji Guo will be at your fingertips. Bloody Ji country, the revenge of the eighth ancestor will finally be over. Qi Yigong was secretly excited for a long time.

When Ji Wuhou received the letter and brought it to the imperial court to study, the ministers were all frightened. It is said that this is a conspiracy. The relationship between Zheng and Qi is not ordinary. The two countries said that they had come to meet the alliance, and when the two armies arrived, how could there be a foothold for Ji Guo! Both the Marquis of Ji Wu and the Manchu Dynasty were in a state of worry and fear.
