Chapter 174: Entering the camp in chaos

"Jishan Five Tigers and others implanted their identities as the people of Yuzhou." The system laughed.

"What do you call the people? And is it in this key place in Yuzhou? Bao Hong hurriedly asked.

"It's nothing, it's good that I didn't set them directly as rebels!" The system smiled, "On the other hand, in Dong Chao, these people are useless, on the one hand, you can say that they are rebellious by nature, but on the other hand, it cannot be denied that the system of the Song Dynasty, this kind of simple warrior has no place to stand out." Just like the famous Di Qing and Yue Fei, although they were also prominent for a while, the results were not all tragedies! ”

"Therefore, they may not necessarily become a righteous army absolutely, and they may have the heart to serve the country." The system laughed, "So I'm giving them a choice here." ”

"Okay!" Bao Hong shrugged his shoulders and smiled, "Maybe we'll run into it!" ”

"Next are Qi Liang and Hua Zhou, these two are also directly into your army." The system laughed.

"I said, can you get some of the afterlife to appear in my army?" When Bao Hong heard this, he opened his mouth and complained, "You get so many former dynasty figures, our situation will be exposed in minutes!" ”

"Expose your fart, these are allusions for a reason, okay!" The system laughed.

As mentioned earlier, the Duke of Qi Zhuang was going to crusade against Ju, and for this reason, he set up a warrior position to enjoy the five times of Juelu, and only Qi Liang and Hua Zhou were not among them, so there was a matter of rushing to kill Ju Ying.

And the Duke of Qi Zhuang here is also one of the kings of Qi assisted by Yan Zi.

In the middle of the Spring and Autumn Period, the Zhou royal family was declining day by day, and the trend of competing for power among the countries was accompanied by the four "lords" of Duke Huan of Qi, Duke Wen of Jin, Duke Mu of Qin, and King of Chu Zhuang (that is, the king of Zhou gave the name of the kingdom, and the Duke of Qi Huan and Duke Wen of Jin were officially given titles by the Zhou royal family; Qin Mugong is supported by Xirong and Guanzhong countries; The death of King Chuzhuang as the de facto overlord intensified, and at the same time, there was a lack of male lords similar to the four above-mentioned who were admired by everyone, and the frequency and intensity of wars gradually increased.

In May of the eighteenth year of King Ling of Zhou (555 B.C.), the Duke of Qi Ling was scattered due to the famine, and the courtiers conspired to lead the world to succeed to the throne. When Qi Ling heard this, he became shocked and vomited blood and died. Shiziguang succeeded to the throne, that is, the Duke of Qi Zhuang.

Jin Guo and Qi have had a grudge for many years, and when they heard the news, they wanted to take the opportunity to attack Qi. Doctor Qi Yan Ying also persuaded the Duke of Qi Zhuang to marry Jin, and the Duke of Qi Zhuang obeyed. The two countries were uneventful for the time being.

A few years later, Luan Ying, the deputy general of the Jin Army, couldn't bear to live as a widow, and took advantage of her son's opportunity to go out to fight with the minister Zhou Bin. His mother was worried that her son would turn his face, so she consulted with the adulterer and spread the message of Luan Ying's rebellion. Jin Ping believed that it was true and was ready to cure Luan Ying's crime. Luan Ying heard the news and fled to Qi with several retainers.

However, it is said that although the Duke of Qi Zhuang and Jin are good, he does not want to live under the people, but he seeks talents, and has nine warriors, all of whom are capable of lifting thousands of catties and shooting seven arrows, that is, the arrows can shoot through the seven thin armors stacked together, and the Duke of Qi Zhuang is called "Yongjue", Dr. Lubi.

Hearing that Luan Ying, the general of the Jin Kingdom, was overjoyed, and was ready to greet him in person. Yan Ying dissuaded: "We have a new alliance with the Jin State and accept its traitors, if the Jin State asks, how can we answer it?" Qi Zhuang Gong said with a smile: "Qi and Jin are both big countries in the world, and the alliance in the past is a temporary urgency, and the two countries will eventually be separated." It is to welcome Luan Ying into the court.

Luan Ying visited Qi Zhuang Gong and complained bitterly about his grievances, and Qi Zhuang Gong released his words at the moment, which will make Luan Ying return to the Jin Kingdom and take revenge.

There are three brave generals in Luan Ying's retainers: Du Rong, Zhou Xuan, and Xing Yi, Qi Zhuang Gong loves talents, and Zhou Xuan and Xing Yi are from Luan Ying's subordinates and are listed as the last of the brave lords. The Duke of Qi Zhuang and the generals gathered happily from time to time, and prepared to cut down the Jin. Who knew that the old general Yongjue was always at odds with Zhou Xuan and Xing Yi, sowing disasters for the future.

In May of the twenty-fourth year of King Ling of Zhou, when the Jin State united all the princes and intended to attack Qi on a large scale, the government and the opposition of Qi State were panicked. At this time, the affair between Duke Qi Zhuang and Tang Jiang, the wife of the great noble, was known to Cui Zhu. So, Cui Shu decided to take the opportunity to kill the Duke of Qi Zhuang to explain to the Jin Kingdom. On this day, the Duke of Qi Zhuang held a banquet to entertain the monarch of the Ju Kingdom, Li Bigong, who came to pay tribute, and ordered the ministers to come and sit with him. Cui Zhu said that the illness did not go. Qi Zhuanggong not only did not blame, but secretly rejoiced: I can take the opportunity to see Tang Jiang again. The banquet was dispersed, and Qi Zhuang Gong went to Cui Zhu's house to have a private meeting with Tang Jiang on the pretext of visiting the sick, and was immediately shot to death by the warriors who were ambushed in the house in advance.

Hearing that Duke Qi Zhuang was killed by Cui Zhu, Yan Ying resolutely took his entourage to Qi Capital to mourn Duke Qi Zhuang regardless of his personal safety. Yan Ying came to the door of Cui Zhu's house, and the people around him asked him worriedly: "Will you be buried for the king?" Yan Ying said, "Is it my own king, and I should die for him?" Then he said, "Why don't we run away?" Yan Ying said, "Is it my sin that the king's death is my fault, and I want to run away?" "Shall we, then, go back?" Yan Ying said: "The kings are dead, where will I go back?" As the Lord of the peoples, is it just to use his position to rise above the people? Should preside over the affairs of the state, as a subordinate of the monarch, is it just to obtain a fortune? The country should be defended! Therefore, if the monarch dies for the country, then his subordinates should die for him; If the monarch flees for the sake of his country, his subordinates should flee with him. If the monarch only dies for his own selfish desires, flees for personal matters, and is not the one he favors, who dares to take responsibility, die for him, flee for him? But where can I go back now? ”

After that, Yan Ying broke into Cui's house, took off his hat, beat his chest, and threw himself on Qi Zhuanggong's corpse desperately, crying loudly, and then got up and left. Cui Zhu's left and right wanted to kill Yan Ying, and Cui Zhu had long hated Yan Ying, but he had some scruples, so he said to the people around him: "He is a person admired by the people, kill him, I will lose the hearts of the people." ”

On May 19, Cui Zhu supported Qi Zhuanggong's half-brother Pestle as the monarch of the country, which was for Qi Jinggong, Cui Zhu himself served as prime minister, and Qingfeng served as the left minister.

At the beginning of Qi Jinggong's accession to the throne, he did not reuse Yan Ying, but just asked him to govern Dong'a. Yan Ying has been gone for three years, during which Qi Jinggong has heard a lot of bad things about Yan Ying, so he is very unhappy, so he summoned Yan Ying to question and want to dismiss him.

Yan Ying hurriedly apologized: "The minister already knows his mistake, please give the minister another chance, let me re-govern Dong'a, and after three years, the minister promises to let you hear the words of praise." Qi Jinggong agreed.

Three years later, Qi Jinggong really heard many people saying good things about Yan Ying. Qi Jinggong was overjoyed and decided to summon Yan Ying to prepare a heavy reward. Who knew that Yan Ying refused to accept it, Qi Jinggong was so strange and asked why.

Yan Ying told the truth about the two governance of Dong'a. He said: "The minister governed Dong'a three years ago, and he did his best and acted impartially, and he offended many people. The ministers built bridges and roads, and tried to do more good things for the people, but they were opposed by the rich gentry who oppressed the people on weekdays; The minister sentenced the case to prison, was not afraid of the strong, and acted according to the law, but was opposed by the strong and the inferior gentry; The ministers commended and recommended those who were thrifty, industrious, and honored their teachers and brothers, and punished those who were lazy, and those who were idle and unscrupulous naturally hated me. Even if the ministers are sent by the imperial court, the ministers must follow the rules and never violate the courtesy, so they are opposed by many nobles. Even if people around me make illegal demands, they will be rejected by the ministers, which will naturally cause them to be dissatisfied. In this way, these opponents of the ministers spread my rumors together, and the king was naturally dissatisfied with the ministers after hearing this. In the next three years, the minister did the opposite, and those who used to speak ill of the minister naturally began to praise the minister. The minister thought that in the first three years of governing Dong'a, the king should have rewarded the ministers, but instead punished the ministers; In the next three years, the king should punish the ministers, but the result is to reward the ministers, so the ministers really dare not accept it. ”

Qi Jing scolded Yan Ying because he did not go to Dong'e to observe the people's situation in person. Practice makes sense. With her own practice, Yan Ying compared her arguments from both positive and negative aspects, and increased her persuasion to achieve good results. Therefore, Qi Jinggong knew that Yan Ying was indeed a virtuous person, and deeply regretted that he had listened to slander before, and blamed Yan Ying wrongly. So, the political commissar of Qi Jinggong was Yan Ying, and asked him to assist him in governing the Qi country.

I have to say that although Yan Zi is not the kind of hard-tempered minister, compared with the kind of inflexible diehard, Yan Zi's loyalty is not inferior to the former, and he can achieve the effect of advising the monarch through ingenious performance art and language skills.

It can be said that Yan Zi's chivalrous spirit is no less than those brave and invincible chivalrous warriors.

Therefore, on the one hand, the relationship between the two sides is close, so the principle of proximity is normal, and it is normal to enter the vicinity of Yanzi. On the other hand, those two guys don't even care much about the so-called Qi Zhuang Gong, but if they change Yan Zi, they can definitely submit them to obedience. With Yanzi's grasp of people's hearts, that kind of straight-tempered hero should not be too easy to deal with!

"Anyway, they and Yanzi should know each other, right?" Bao Hong said with a smile, "With Yanzi's character, if you know these guys, you must have a good relationship." ”

"That's true!" The system responded, "In the end, let's go to Sichuan to mix." After all, this guy is a person in "Liezi", and it's not bad to go directly to Taoism! ”

"I'll go! What logic! When Bao Hong heard this, he was also speechless.

"Okay, without further ado, let's start putting it on!" The system smiled, "I remember that this time there are Yan Cangming, Qi Liang, and Hua Zhou." ”

"Got it!" Bao Hong nodded and said with a smile.

So, in the main hall, there was another changing scene, and then three figures appeared in front of everyone.

From the beginning of the change of light and shadow, everyone's eyes were watching.

The most striking thing is a burly warrior with hideous muscles, and there are many special expressions between his faces, and a huge iron cone in his hand is even more cold and breathtaking.

The other two strong men are relatively much more 'elegant', with burly bodies, but not as strong as the former. The muscles are strong, but they are not so kind, like a dragon. However, Bao Hong knew that the bravery of these two guys was not inferior to the former.

"Qi Liang? Hua Zhou? ”

Yan Zi exclaimed, relatively speaking, he was a little younger than Yan Zi, and he had not experienced the period of Qi Zhuang Gong. (Even if it is already born, it should be very small, and there is no specific birth or death, so I will not discuss it for the time being.) )

Tian Qi is the son of Tian Huanzi, the minister of Qi State, Tian Wuyu, and the younger brother of Tian Wuzi, Tian Kai. During the reign of Qi Jinggong, Tian Qi began to enter the officialdom and served as a doctor. When Tian begged to collect the people's taxes, he used a small bucket to collect them, and when he lent the people grain, he used a big bucket to lend them, and he exercised yin virtue on the people, but Qi Jinggong did not stop him. Therefore, the Tian family has won the hearts of the people, the clan power is becoming stronger and stronger, and the people miss the Tian family. Yan Ying repeatedly advised Qi Jinggong that Tian's behavior should be restrained, but Qi Jinggong did not listen.

So retrospectively, the head of the Tian family during the period of Duke Qi Zhuang should be Tian Wuyu, Tian Qi's father.

Tian Wuyu, concubine's surname, Tian's family, nickname Huan, so called Tian Huanzi. Tian Wuyu was one of the leaders of the Tian family of Qi during the Spring and Autumn Period, and was the fourth grandson of Chen Wan, the son of Chen Li's concubine Yue, and succeeded his father Tian Wenzi as the head of the Tian family. There are three generations of Qi Linggong, Qi Zhuang Gong, and Qi Jinggong, and his wife is the daughter of Qi Linggong and Mu Mengji, and the sister of Qi Jinggong.

From 571 BC to 567 BC, Tian Wuyu followed Yan to attack and destroy the Lai Kingdom. In 548 BC, Cui Zhu killed the Duke of Qi Zhuang, and the son of Zhu Jiu ascended the throne as the Duke of Jing, appointing Cui Zhu as the right minister and Qingfeng as the left minister.

In the second year of Qi Jinggong, Qingfeng took advantage of the civil strife in the Cui clan to eliminate the Cui clan and serve as the prime minister, specializing in court politics.

In October of the third year of Qi Jinggong, Qingfeng went out hunting. Qingfeng has become more and more arrogant since he killed Cui Zhu, he is addicted to drinking and hunting, ignoring political affairs, and handing over political affairs to his son Qingshe to deal with. Tian Wenzi said to Tian Huanzi: "Turmoil is about to happen. "The Tian family, the Bao family, the Gao family, and the Luan family jointly plotted against the Qing family, and the Qing She mobilized the armor soldiers to surround and protect the palace of Qingfeng, and the disciples of the four major families worked together to defeat it. Qingfeng returned, but he couldn't enter the palace and defected to the country of Lu. Since then, the power of the Tian family has increased greatly.

In 532 BC, Tian Wuyu and Bao Guo jointly attacked the Luan clan and the Gao clan, the princes of Qi Hui, dealt a heavy blow to the power of the old nobles, and led the feudal province of Gao Tang, and the power of the Tian clan was further strengthened. Since then, Yan Ying has been in power, and Tian Wuyu has secretly developed his own power. After Tian Wuyu's death, he was succeeded by his son Wuzi Tian Kai.

Since then, through the development of his son Tian Qi (Tian Xizi) and his grandson Tian Chang (Tian Chengzi), he has controlled the power of Qi by the time of his great-grandson Tian Pan (Tian Xiangzi), and basically completed the transformation of Qi from Jiang to Tian. By the time of Chen's tenth grandson, Tian He, Tian He established himself as the Duke of Qi and was recognized by Zhou Tianzi and the princes, and soon Tian He abolished the Duke of Qi Kang and banished him to the coast of the East China Sea. This is the famous "Tian Dynasty Qi" in history. During the Warring States period, Tian surnamed Qi became one of the Seven Heroes of the Warring States.

So at this time, Tian Qi really hadn't seen these two people.

However, whether it was Tian Qi or someone else, after hearing Yan Zi's exclamation, they basically knew who this person was. (To be continued.) )
