Chapter 109: The Zhou Royal Family (2)
Dongfang Jiao was worried again: "Princess Wei is so powerful!" How can I handle this brain? ”
Ji Qiao explained: "You don't have to do anything specifically, just keep an eye on these women, and let me know if you find any suspicious person." ”
......
The next day, the training ground.
When everyone heard that they were going to Luoyi to compete, they were immediately overjoyed!
The female team members are glad that they did not quit training! In the past, my father and mother never let me step out of Linzi City for half a step, but now I am going abroad, and I am going to the capital of Zhou Wangdu!
However, the male team members are a little regretful psychologically, and they are sparring partners!
Who knows, Ji Qiao said at this time: "The men's team will compete as a seeded team at that time." ”
When these boys heard this, they were immediately excited!
Tian Yan said angrily: "After doing it for so long, it turns out that we are the sparring partners!" ”
All the women also expressed dissatisfaction!
Ji Qiao said loudly: "I didn't disqualify you, I have the ability to defeat these men." ”
Lin Shi was heartbroken: "These men are going to compete, if they don't teach us real skills, what should we do?" ”
"yes." The women chimed in.
Ji Qiao said loudly again: "This is to win glory for the country, we are fighting against other countries, how can they not teach?" Don't underestimate your charm, even if you let these men roll on the ground, they won't hesitate to agree. ”
The men immediately replied: "What Qiao Gongzi said is right, as long as we win against other countries' teams, we will be satisfied!" How can you care about losing to you women, you will teach without reservation. ”
Another woman asked worriedly: "Now that the host country of the Games has been changed to the Zhou Dynasty, will we still be able to perform the song and dance program then?" ”
Ji Qiao replied: "Don't worry, I have mentioned this matter to the king, and asked the envoy and the king of Zhou to propose: give us some time to perform before the games start." ”
The women are satisfied!
......
Soon, the king of Zhou received a reply from the king of Qi and immediately sent envoys to inform the countries that the venue of the games was changed to Luoyi, the capital of the king of Zhou.
The kings of Chu, Zhao, Yan, and Han thought that in this way, they would lose the meaning of participating, and the original purpose was to take the opportunity to steal the iron smelting technology of Qi State, but now they can't get anything! But they all decided to participate.
King Qin didn't know, so he was still very happy, after all, he was closer to his own country and saved a lot of expenses.
The kings of other countries also thought that it was better to go to Luoyi in the Zhou Dynasty, and the Qi country was too far away from the sea.
However, the King of Wei had already received the news from Wei Hua long before the envoys of the Zhou Dynasty came. I was very annoyed, but I didn't expect King Zhou to suddenly intervene and disrupt his plan. If you don't agree, you can't, after all, King Zhou is still the co-master of the world.
I thought: Now I can only see how the painting is going, and then make a plan.
......
At this time, there is only one and a half months before the opening time of the Games.
To be on the safe side, Ji Qiao brought the map to study.
At this time, the Zhou Dynasty was also a big place, sandwiched between Korea and Wei. The land of the Zhou royal family is not even comparable to a large town in the vassal state, which is only more than a hundred miles in radius.
At this time, the territory of Korea wanted to insert a sharp knife into Zhao and divide the land of Wei into two halves.
The Zhou royal family was like a small dot, glued to the east of Korea, only slightly lower, and then surrounded by the Wei state.
The shortest route from Qi to Luoyi was: first through Wei, then Wei, and then to the Zhou royal family.
According to historical records, Ji Qiao learned that the current King of Zhou (King Zhou An) died of illness two years later, and he did nothing in his life, and the biggest thing he did was to seal the fields and become princes.
After his son succeeded to the throne (King Zhou Lie), he did not make any achievements, but he left a legacy, but it was poisonous for future generations! A story is recorded in "Warring States Policy":
After the death of King Zhou Lie, most of the vassal states still came to Luoyi City in time to pay their respects, but the envoys of Qi came a long time late.
At that time, I didn't know which official of the Zhou royal family was in charge of the temporary transitional affairs, and he openly scolded Qi Guo on the grounds that the Qi envoy was late.
At this time, the state of Qi was in the early days of King Qi Wei (Tian Wu's son), and just as he was rising, he heard that the great Qi was actually scolded by the down-and-out Zhou royal family. King Qi Wei was furious! scolded the vulgar sentence that could not be more vulgar: "Wow, Er's mother and maid!" ”。
What does that mean?
In today's words: fuck, you're a fucking slut!
King Zhou Lie's funeral has become a joke in the world. And that national scolding, after thousands of years of changes, finally integrated into the people and became a necessity for quarrels.
If King Zhou Lie had knowledge under the spring, he would definitely be humiliated by this! The Zhou royal family is a state that advocates etiquette, but it was insulted by its subordinates. This also left an indelible shadow on the successors who followed.
......
At the same time, in order to avoid fighting alone during the conference and being jointly suppressed by other countries, the king of Qi sent a special envoy to the Qin State to ask the two countries to join forces.
The state of Qin is now in the early days of Qin Xiangong, and the country is so poor that even the weapons of the soldiers cannot be updated normally. The King of Qin regained the throne for only a few years, and was carrying out reforms in the country, although the reform was not complete, but it laid the foundation for the Shang Dynasty reform during the Qin Xiaogong period.
When the King of Qin was in exile, although he was entertained by the King of Wei, the two countries were feuding, and the Wei State also occupied a lot of land in the Qin State during this period, so he still hated the Wei State to the core.
Therefore, the Qin king was still very cooperative with the alliance of the Qi countries, anyway, the two countries were very far apart, and there were several countries in between, so there would be no territorial disputes.
......
Now that life is better, Ji Qiao thinks of his family again, thinking that it is impossible to be buried in the sea, and there will always be survivors. But he secretly sent a lot of people to inquire, but he never found any clues.
Ji Qiao also thinks that the best way to find a family member is to make a name for himself and let everyone in the world know that there is a person named Ji Qiao! In this way, if there are survivors in the family, after hearing about them, they will definitely take the initiative to come to the meeting.
Therefore, Ji Qiao feels that this sports meeting is a very good opportunity, and during the conference, he must be more in the limelight and let people from all over the world know his name.
......
After the venue of the sports meeting was changed, Ji Qiao disbanded Ji Ling's cheerleading team, although she was very reluctant in her heart, she also knew that there was no way, it was impossible to take children so far away.
Ji Qiao didn't have much to do during this time, he wanted to teach others to play football, but his skills were not good.
During dinner, Ji Qiao asked boredly, "Mrs. Dongfang, how are you doing with your bow?" ”
Dongfang Jiao replied very proudly: "The progress is fast! ”
Ji Qiao said again: "Mrs. Dongfang, Qing Gongzi, if you two are interested, we will discuss the art of war every day after dinner, and we will definitely use it in the future." ”
Ji Qiao thinks that there is nothing to do now anyway, so he will get some art of war to teach them, but in case of emergency. As for whether you can learn it, it's up to fate.
Lin Qing immediately became interested: "In this way, Gongzi Qiao must be well versed in the art of war!" ”
