Chapter 105: Misfortune Comes from the Mouth

In the main hall of the palace of the Zhou royal family, the Duke of the Western Zhou Dynasty and the Duke Ji Jie of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty sat facing each other, and neither of the two old men who were over fifty years old paid attention to anyone, and they were not even interested in taking a look at each other. Beside them, sat Su Dai and Chen Zheng.

Chen Zheng, who was originally preparing to get out outside the Taimiao Gate, finally did not resist the temptation to see the palace of the Zhou royal family and Zhou Tianzi, and followed Su Dai and Ji Ji here.

Before getting into the carriage, Chen Zheng instructed Li Mu to go back to the post house first, accompanied by Mr. Su, and he would be safe.

The palace of the Zhou royal family in Luoyi is indeed extraordinary, and the boxy royal city is densely packed with large and small buildings, although the Zhou royal family at this time is insignificant in the eyes of the princes, but the pomp and circumstance of the appearance still have to be talked about, after all, Zhou Tianzi is still the nominal suzerain of the world.

Chen Zheng stared at the empty throne of the Son of Heaven in the middle, and thought to himself, in order to compete for such a position, the princes of the world are thinking about it one by one, unable to sleep at night, and even fighting openly and secretly at all costs, you fight for me, is it worth it?!

Throughout history, the first monarchs of all dynasties are often eloquent, capable of literature and martial arts, but the baton can be passed down from generation to generation, but it is easy to win the world, it is difficult to keep the world, and when the decline is irreversible, those who claim to be the Son of Heaven If they can live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, coarse tea and light food, the life of a common people has become a kind of luxury, waiting for them is either poisonous wine or white silk, not a sword and axe hand or a sword from the courtiers, eunuchs, brothers and even their own flesh and blood. Countless sons of heaven slashed and killed their concubines and children with their own hands, and threw themselves into wells, hung beams, and took poison in the shouts of swords and swords, until they were wiped out.

Are they really sons of God?!

"Brother Lu, what do you want?" Su Dai looked at the thoughtful Chen Zheng with a smile on his face.

"Oh, didn't think much of it. It's just that I don't know why the Son of Heaven hasn't shown up for so long? Chen Zheng muttered.

The Duke of the Western Zhou Dynasty arched his hand at Chen Zheng and said, "Lu Gongzi is a little restless." ”

Su Dai smiled and said, "Brother Lu, if it weren't for my brother and me, how could you, a businessman, enter this palace hall, and how could you see the Son of Heaven?" Hahahaha! ”

Looking at Su Dai's smug expression, Chen Zheng seemed to understand Lao Su's purpose in bringing him here.

Ji Jie, the Duke of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, glanced at Chen Zheng who was sitting beside him with disdain, and said to himself: "I said how can I smell a smell of copper!" In today's world, there is really no wonder, a person with a humble status can enter the palace and enter this palace, where is the face of the Son of Heaven? ! ”

Chen Zheng's psychological resistance to blows has long been different from what it used to be, I am me, my lord is like this, you can afford it, you can look down on it, in the final analysis, I still live mine, you still live yours, the well water is clear, the river water is turbid.

However, those who expose their disdainful eyes, ugly faces, and sinister hearts as soon as they meet, although their brains have been devoured by the devil, although their bodies have become the devil's means of transportation, but after all, they are not even in the mood to wear a mask in front of some people, and show the most real side to you directly, in fact, it is telling you: I am a villain, you should be careful! On the contrary, those who seem to be affectionate, but in fact cold, seem sincere, but in fact hypocritical, seem to be good, but in fact are vicious, are the most dangerous existence in the world.

The Duke of the Western Zhou Dynasty looked angrily and said: "This Gongzi Lu is a friend of Mr. Su and a guest I invited, why are you here to speak disrespectfully!" ”

At this moment, a waiter shouted, "The Son of Heaven has arrived!" ”

The four people in the main hall looked over together, and saw an old man in his seventies walking out tremblingly with two young and beautiful women.

This Zhou Tianzi Ji Yan wore a crown on his head, a robe embroidered with dragon patterns, and a gold belt inlaid with white jade was tied around his waist, and a string of jade rings hung on it. The beads on the crown swayed with the swaying of the Son of Heaven's body, and under the half-concealment of the beads, a dim face appeared and disappeared from time to time.

Chen Zheng was still looking at the appearance of the Son of Heaven, and the other three walked to the middle of the main hall, ready to bow to the Son of Heaven.

Su Dai was stunned indifferently when he saw that Chen Zheng was still there, and hurriedly and quietly beckoned Chen Zheng to join the ranks of kneeling.

Although Chen Zheng was a hundred reluctant in his heart, it was good to follow the customs of the villagers, and it didn't matter if the matter had come to this point, who let himself come to the feudal society with thunder and thunder, so he had to pretend to be a gourd before returning to his seat.

That Zhou Tianzi Ji Yan was already old and dizzy, and at this time, there was a row of door curtains in front of him, and he saw him sitting on the main seat in the middle of the main hall and looking left and right, and wondered: "Which of you is the Duke of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and who is the Duke of the Western Zhou?" I look like east and west here, and west and west, and west and east, how can you look at things and not things? ”

Chen Zheng couldn't hold back suddenly, and burst out laughing.

Zhou Tianzi Ji stretched out his hands to open the curtain in front of him, and said in the direction of Chen Zheng, "Why is Mr. Su laughing? ”

When Chen Zheng was stunned, Su Dai raised his hand: "I'm here." ”

Ji Yan looked at Su Dai again: "Who are you?" ”

At the suggestion of the Duke of the Western Zhou Dynasty, a waiter muttered in the ear of the Son of Heaven while pointing at the four people.

Zhou Tianzi Ji Yan opened the curtain with one hand, squinted at Chen Zheng, and said to Su Dai: "Mr. Su, you brought this Lu Gongzi?" ”

Su Dai arched his hand and said: "Back to the Son of Heaven, Lu Gongzi is indeed a friend of Su Dai, today when I visited the Taimiao with the Duke of the Western Zhou Dynasty, I happened to meet Lu Gongzi, so I came to meet the Son of Heaven together." ”

"Where did Lu Gongzi come from?" Zhou Tianzi Ji Yan asked casually.

Chen Zhengyi arched his hand: "Come from Xianyang and go to Xinzheng." ”

Ji Yan raised his eyebrows: "Oh~!" Which family is Lu Gongzi from? ”

“……”

Su Dai introduced: "Lu Gongzi is a businessman, and now he is also inheriting the family business and is rich. ”

Ji Yan's door curtain fell along with his brows, and his eyes were closed.

Ji Jie, the Duke of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, said angrily: "Mr. Su, what kind of place should you be, is this palace hall a peddler and a pawn can come?" Isn't it true that you and Ji Ji despise the Son of Heaven and bring this surnamed Lu to humiliate the Son of Heaven?! ”

Gongji of the Western Zhou Dynasty answered: "Don't be unreasonable to Mr. Su!" I think that when Han and Chu were fighting, South Korea asked you for weapons and grain and grass from the Eastern Zhou, if it weren't for Mr. Su's planning, not only did you not produce a weapon and a grain of grain, but also got Gaodu from South Korea for nothing, don't you remember this incident? ”

Ji Jie, the Duke of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, rolled his eyes and said: "That's all old things from many years ago, don't mention it." ”

The Duke of the Western Zhou Dynasty blamed him: "Mr. Su not only helped the Eastern Zhou, but also had a favor in the Western Zhou, when the Chu State wanted to attack the Western Zhou, Mr. Su saved thousands of people in Luoyi in a few words from the King of Chu Huai. You Ji Jie can be ungrateful, but my Ji Jie can't be unrighteous. If you are disrespectful to Mr. Su again, don't blame me for blasting you out of Luoyi. ”

Su Dai hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Okay, okay, in front of the Son of Heaven, don't quarrel endlessly, don't you blame me?!" I haven't seen Gongzi Lu for a long time, and I met by chance in the city today, but I just want to bring him here to see the world. In my opinion, it is important to ask the Duke of the Eastern Zhou why he came to Luoyi this time. ”

Ji Ji glared at Ji Jie and said, "You don't stay in your Gongyi, why do you come to my Luoyi if you have nothing to do?" Could it be that he wants to slander the Son of Heaven? ”

Ji Jie said angrily: "Ji Ji, although the Son of Heaven lives in Luoyi, is it the Son of Heaven of your Western Zhou Dynasty?" As a member of the royal family, can't I meet the Son of Heaven? It's good for you, without your permission, I can't even enter the gate of the palace, and I have to wait for you and Mr. Su to finish visiting the Taimiao before we can enter the main hall together. You have locked the Son of Heaven in this palace all day long, and whoever wants to come in must ask you first, do you want to plot against you?! ”

Chen Zheng saw that these two old men couldn't meet at all, and when they met, they chattered endlessly, which would be strange if there was no one next to them and they didn't scuffle together!

Faced with such a scene, Chen Zheng recalled the golden and jade words in "Jin Renming", and decided to come to Cao Ying with a Xu Shu without saying a word, so as not to mix himself into right and wrong.

After continuing to listen, Chen Zheng really couldn't cry or laugh.

It turned out that the fact that the Qin State was about to raise the whole country's troops to attack the Zhao State itself had been rumored in the Zhou royal family, and the war between Qin and Zhao had not yet been ignited, but the people of the Zhou royal family were a little unable to sit still. How to grasp the opportunity, take advantage of the fire, and get a piece of the pie in this Qin State's war to destroy Zhao?

According to the plan of the Western Zhou Dynasty, in the name of the Zhou royal family, he secretly supported some weapons and grain and grass to the Qin State, and then only waited for the Qin State to destroy the Zhao State, and maybe he could share some benefits. Even if the Qin State does not pull out a dime in the future, it will not lead to trouble.

According to his assumption, this time the Qin State attacked the Zhao State on a large scale, and the posture of not breaking Handan and never returning it was not returned, so Xianyang was not like an empty city. If you call on the world in the name of Zhou Tianzi, and take advantage of the fact that Qin and Zhao are inseparable under Handan City, and rush through Hangu Pass in one fell swoop, not only will Qin's army be homeless in an instant, but also be able to revive Zhou Tianzi's former majesty.

Maybe the Duke of the Western Zhou Dynasty and the Duke of the Eastern Zhou didn't treat Gongzi Lu here as a green onion in their hearts, not even a garlic seedling, so they argued in front of Ji Yan with a word from you and with me.

Ji Yan listened to the views of the Duke of Western Zhou, and even said: Reasonable, reasonable! After listening to Dong Zhougong's words, he nodded and said: Not bad, not bad!

In fact, for this Zhou Tianzi, he has long hated the Qin King Yingji, who claims to be the Western Emperor, to the bone marrow. Now the Qin State occupies the Longxing land of the Zhou royal family, not to mention, but also commands and yells at the other six countries. Seeing that there was talking, laughing, fighting and fighting between the Qin State and the Six Kingdoms, I didn't take my royal family in my eyes at all. As a result, the balance in Ji Yan's heart gradually tilted to Ji Jie.

This Zhou Tianzi Ji Yan was fooled by the flickering of the east and west, and his eyes flashed excitedly, but for such a big matter, he did not have the determination and courage to make a decision on the spot.

Ji Yan said to Su Dai, who was closing his eyes and recuperating: "I don't know what Mr. Su thinks?" ”

Su Dai slowly opened his eyes and looked at the auspicious three treasures of the Zhou royal family in front of him, but he wanted to speak and stopped, not knowing how to answer.

After a pause, Su Dai said: "To help Qin or to destroy Qin, of course, each has its own reason, such a big matter, it is necessary for the Son of Heaven to decide." However, my elder brother Lu has traveled all over the world and has seen a lot of things, and his opinions may be able to represent some public opinion. ”

When the eyes of the auspicious three treasures focused on Chen Zheng at the same time, Chen Zheng really wanted to instantly transform into a bronze man in the Taimiao, and then raise the Yongzhou Dingding to smash Su Dai into the shape of a ribbon fish.

Ji Jie, the Duke of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, pouted and said, "Since Mr. Su doesn't want to offend the Qin State, just keep your mouth shut, how can you push this low-end person to the front?" This man is young and has a strange outfit, but he is just a cheap and expensive street citizen. ”

Zhou Tianzi Ji Yan said: "Why should the Duke of Eastern Zhou bother with this businessman, don't forget your identity." If it weren't for Mr. Su's face today, I would have expelled this person from the palace a long time ago, so how could he dirty my hall. ”

Chen Zheng, who was sitting at the banquet, clenched his hands into fists, his eyes were eager to erupt fire, but he remembered the three seals on the mouth of the bronze man of Taimiao, and he still suppressed his anger and tried his best to restrain himself.

Su Dai was also puzzled, it turned out that Brother Lu was talking eloquently in front of him, but now Brother Lu is silent, which is really strange.

Ji Jie, the Duke of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, walked in front of Chen Zheng, and said with a smile: "Oops! This Lu Gongzi is angry? I thought that the businessmen would only give others a smile and shout a few times on the street, but today I found out that you and other small people will also be angry. Hahahaha! Do you know what this place is? Can someone like you come to this palace? In my opinion, don't pretend here, say whatever you want, if you say the wrong thing, don't say that it is the Duke of Western Zhou and Mr. Su who protect you, as long as the Son of Heaven coughs, you will die without a place to be buried! ”

Su Dai also felt that it was really not authentic to kick the ball to Brother Lu on the opposite side just now, and he didn't expect that Brother Lu, who couldn't bear it, would be humiliated by Ji Jie, and was about to get up to save him, but saw Chen Zheng stand up and shell Ji Jie head-on.

"You forced me, Asshole!"

Ji Jie, who was pointing fingers in front of Chen Zheng, was startled, and a roar sounded in his ears.

Chen Zheng said sharply: "In my opinion, I don't know what place this place is not me, I'm afraid it's you, right?" Since you have a mouthful of the Son of Heaven, let me ask you first, what is the Son of Heaven? ”

Ji Jie was suddenly suppressed by Chen Zheng's momentum, but instantly returned to his arrogant posture and chuckled: "The Son of Heaven is the Son of Heaven!" I think that the ancestor of my Zhou Dynasty is a noble descended from heaven, and he inherits the will of heaven to educate all the people in the world, how can you know it! ”

"Hahahaha!" Chen Zheng laughed and said, "Don't talk about the divine authority of the monarch. I'm not afraid to tell you that those ruffians and beggars can also claim to be the sons of dragons and grandsons, and their mouths are carried by the sky, and they are the sons of heaven when they take every step. Even if the Son of Heaven was sent by God, it was not for them to be powerful. Yinzhen has a good saying: The Son of Heaven is the number one drudgery in the world. If a son of heaven is selfish and only wants to step on the heads of the people of the world to enjoy glory and wealth, then he doesn't want to be a son to God, he is not worthy of being a son to the common people. ”

Ji Yan slapped the table, pointed at Chen Zheng and said in a trembling voice: "Big, big, bold, unexpectedly, unexpectedly, dare to speak wildly, wildly!" ”

Chen Zheng also let go: "Big bubble gum, go go!" Then he pointed at Ji Jie and said: "This place is the place to find a way to let the people live a good life." I also tell you clearly, in this world, it has always been those who win the hearts of the people who win the world, and if you don't measure yourself and block the car, you can only accelerate your demise. I advise you not to whimsically destroy this and that here, it would be good if you could not be wiped out by yourself, so that you can take good care of the people of Luoyi and Gongyi, and pack up and prepare for the curtain call! ”

Ji Yan trembled with anger, pointed at Chen Zheng and said in a trembling voice: "Come, come, come, come, give, tie me, tie up, close, put in a big prison!" ”
