While gaining the support of the Qin people, Shenhou also obtained the support of the vassal states of Jin, Lu, and Zheng in the east.

Of course, these princes are not supported in vain, and they all need some benefits.

Take the Qin people as an example, when Shen Xiang said the conditions of the Qin people to Shen Hou, Shen Hou was silent for a long time, he knew very well that the current Qin people were no longer the soft and weak Qin people of the past, and they were the same as all the vassal states in the Central Plains, and their appetite had long been great.

In the end, Shenhou said: "Although we have already obtained the support of the Jin State and other countries, if the Qin people make trouble with us at this time, Ji Yijiu Tianzi will still have some difficulties in this matter, in order not to affect our major affairs, it is better to give the Qin people some more benefits, at least our benefits cannot be less than those of Gongzi Yuchen." I think so, if you don't wait for the crown prince to succeed to the throne as the Son of Heaven, you will directly canonize the Qin people as the country, and the country name will be Qin. What do you think? ”

Qin State?

After Ji Yijiu succeeded to the throne as the Son of Heaven, he canonized the Qin people and established the Qin State. This is a really big thing!

When Shenhou said this, Xiangguo looked at him suspiciously, "Your Excellency, you have to think about it, I think that the Qin people are extremely ambitious people, if we don't canonize them to establish the country, we may be able to suppress them, but if we directly canonize the Qin people to establish the country, maybe it will become a big disaster for us in the future." After all, the crown prince succeeded to the throne as the Son of Heaven and still had to stay in Guanzhong. Directly west of the royal family existed a powerful Qin state. Will we still be able to sleep soundly? ”

This one?

Shen Hou frowned when he heard this.

Shin Xiang's words stabbed him hard.

As the king of a country, Shenhou certainly knows the truth that "the side of the couch will not allow others to sleep soundly", and naturally knows the danger of establishing a country once the Qin people are canonized.

But now that the Qin people are by their side, if they don't canonize the Qin people as princes, what better way can they win the Qin people over the lord?

"Didn't you say that you would give more benefits to the Qin people? Tell me your opinion. Shenhou knew that canonizing the Qin people to establish a country was a very dangerous trick, and if he didn't get it right, he would put himself in it, so he asked Xiangguo's opinion.

"When the minister was in Yucheng, he did say that he wanted to give more benefits to the Qin people, but the king also knew that under the circumstances at that time, if I didn't propose to give the Qin people more benefits, the Qin people would not choose us. Only if the conditions we offer are higher than Gongzi Yuchen, will the Qin people give up Gongzi Yuchen and choose to support us. Then Shen Xiang said: "But after returning to Shen State, the minister has been thinking about this problem, although I want to give more preferential treatment to the Qin people, but I can't give too much, let alone raise the Qin people into a big trouble for us." Therefore, the minister suggested that it would be better to reward the Qin people with some jewels and jade. In this way, we are satisfied with the rhetoric of giving more benefits to the Qin people, and we will not make the Qin people strong because of this. ”

After listening to Xiangguo's words, Shenhou smiled, "I said Xiangguo, your thinking is too naïve. When the Qin people entered Guanzhong, the Zhou royal family of the Kingdom of Yu, the State of San, and the Zhou Dynasty of Haojing all adopted the method of suppression to deal with the Qin people, what was the result? It's not that the Qin people are getting stronger day by day, and the countries that fought against the Qin people back then are where they are now? As a result, none of them existed. If we still hold this attitude towards the Qin people today, not only will we not get the support of the Qin people, but it will also make the Qin people suspicious of us, and then they will no longer help us. This is not the result that the widow wants! ”

Although Shenhou has colluded with the dog Rong and has done a lot of puzzling things, as a person who has been the monarch for many years, his mind is not mediocre.

After years of experience, he knew very well that any country that wanted to suppress the Qin people would not have any good results in the end. Since he wants to gain the support of the Qin people, and he still wants to let the Qin people continue to stand on the same line with him in the future, then it is better to really give the Qin people some tangible benefits now.

After listening to the monarch's words, Shen Xiang didn't say anything anymore, after all, the current Shen State still needs the support of the Qin people. And it's real support.

Is it okay to give some benefits without sincerity?

The matter of the Qin people was solved, and Shenhou, as the main attacker, also had confidence in his heart, so he began to reorganize his troops and horses and march towards Haojing.

Now he has some regrets that he shouldn't have quit Hojing in the first place, it is said that Inu Rong conquered Hojing, and the most likely person to get Hojing was him Shenhou, but at that time, Shenhou saw the tragedy of Hojing, and was worried that the army would suffer from the plague, so he led his troops to leave Hojing after conquering Hojing and killing Laitian Gongyu.

As a result, Hojing, the capital of the Zhou royal family, fell into the hands of Yu Chen, the prince who had just rushed back to Guanzhong.

Moreover, at this time, the prince Yu Chen, with the support of the minister Yu Gonghan and others, had already ascended the throne as the Son of Heaven in Hojing.

Of course, the so-called "Son of Heaven" of Gongzi Yuchen did not receive much support. Except for the few old royal ministers who remained in Hokyo, few of the princes outside Hokyo supported him.

Grandma 0, if you don't support it, you won't support it, and you have already decided to let out the son of heaven, Yu Chen, without the support of a few princes, insisted on going his own way in Hojing and ascended the throne as the Son of Heaven.

Reverse you can't do it?

Knowing that Gongzi Yuchen had ascended the throne first, Shenhou couldn't wait, and with the support of the Qin people and the eastern countries, he immediately united with the state of Zhang, Xu and other countries to support the crown prince Ji Yijiu and kill Haojing.

This time, Shenhou was ready to fight with Gongzi Yuchen.

On the way, Shen Hou said angrily to Xu Hou and Hou Xuan, "This time the widow made some mistakes, he shouldn't have withdrawn his troops from Haojing in the first place, if we had stayed in Haojing at that time, how could there be such a scene today?" ”

Obviously, leaving Hokyung in the first place was the biggest mistake.

But mistakes are mistakes, and it is impossible to catch them back again, so Xu Hou advised: "Shenhou should not be discouraged, in fact, this matter may not be a good thing." Just imagine, at that time, the plague was rampant in Hokyo, and it was reasonable for us to leave. However, this time, we have received the support of many countries in Guanzhong and the countries of the East. I don't believe that his son, Yu Chen, dares to confront us. I think as soon as we send troops, the remnants of Gongzi will immediately go out of the city and surrender. ”

The Marquis shook his head and said: "This is difficult to say, after all, Yu Chen, the son of the current family, took the lead in claiming the king, and in the current situation that the royal family has no son of heaven, people really regard themselves as the son of Zhou Tianzi." If the prince refuses to leave the city, we may have to make some effort. ”

Shen Hou thought about it too!

If this prince refuses to leave the city, once he sends troops to attack the city, it will really take a lot of strength. And it will take a long time, after all, Hojing is not its own capital, it was the capital of the Zhou royal family back then.

Although it has been attacked and damaged by the dogs, once the repair is completed, it will not be a problem to resist more than 10,000 soldiers and horses.

"It takes time, it takes time, as long as this thing is done, it can ensure the peace of my Zhou royal family for hundreds of years, and we are the first heroes of this rebuilding royal family, and we can leave a name in history." Shenhou said to the two.

After listening to Shen Hou's words, Hou Xuan and Xu Hou couldn't help but feel a burst of pride in their hearts.

Recreate the royal family, what a credit!
