Chapter 363: Shang Ying became the chief of the left

In 356 BC, in the thirteenth year of King Xian of Zhou and the first year of King Qi Wei, many major events occurred in the world of the Great Zhou. The situation was very volatile and had a serious impact on Baekyu's business.

Duke Qi Huan of Qi died, and his son King Qi Wei inherited the title and became the king of Qi.

King Qi Wei was only called king later. When inheriting the title, it is the same as the title. In order to describe and title conveniently and not to be confused, later generations generally called him "King Qi Wei". In literary works, he is also generally referred to as King Qi Wei. Only rigorous academic works are referred to according to different periods.

There are quite a few dogmatic readers, or rather readers who sell their knowledge of history, dogmatically accuse the characters in literature of being wrongly named.

The name of a character in a literary work to make it easier for readers to remember the character. This is a work of literature, not a book of historical evidence.

Falsely accusing others of "mistakes" also exposes one's own character.

After King Qi Wei took over the Qi Kingdom, he did nothing for a while. He was a new king with little power at hand. And the power of the father's time was in the important ministers.

King Wei Hui saw that the new king of Qi was a young hanger, and he didn't take him seriously at all. So! Taking advantage of the national mourning of the Qi State, he united with Korea and Zhao to launch a war against the Qi State.

Duke Huan of Qi is a very controversial king in history. Legend has it that he killed his brother and mother to claim the throne. But he didn't admit it himself, and found a reasonable reason for him to inherit the title. Outcome! The world can't tell who is telling the truth, and it is impossible to draw conclusions.

Qi Huangong, his greatest contribution is: the establishment of the Jixia School Palace.

The father of Duke Qi Huan is a king who has been scolded in history. He is the protagonist of "Tian Dai Qi", replacing the Chen Qi Kingdom. In later generations, there was a saying "Hou of the Thief of the Country", which was about him. Say he's a thief in the world! Others steal property, but he steals the state and righteousness.

The three kingdoms of Wei, Han and Zhao attacked Qi for this reason. They did not recognize the international status of the Qi State, believing that the Tian clan had stolen someone else's throne.

In fact! The three kingdoms of Wei, Korea and Zhao are not clean, and the three of them used to be a country, and that country was called Jin.

Jin! A very large country that could compete with the Chu State at that time, and was even stronger than the Chu State. Later, the Jin Kingdom was divided by their ancestors, and it became the three small states of Wei, Korea and Zhao.

I have moral character problems, so what reason is there to attack the Qi State?

In fact! Just find an excuse to make war money through war.

If you want to add sin, why should you do it? That's what it means!

If others want to bully you, they can find reasons and excuses.

This year! The situation also happened in the Song Kingdom. It was also the same situation: the old king died, and the new king ascended the throne. In fact! The inside story is not so simple, there is also the content of "Dai's Song" hidden inside.

On the surface! It was the descendants of the Song family who inherited the title (the position of the king), but the inside story was that the descendants of the Dai family became kings. The name was not changed, but the quality was changed, and the king was transferred.

In fact! In the previous generation, that is, the king who died, had already been set aside by the Dai family, and he existed in name only. In order not to cause international and domestic turmoil, Dai did not change his name and surname, and continued to follow the name of this king.

This is the "Dai's Song Dynasty" incident in history.

Dai's take the Song Dynasty is not recorded in the official history. But! The truth cannot be concealed. In another history book, there is a clear record.

So! It is useless to falsify history, and the word of mouth of the people cannot be blocked.

While the Central Plains was in turmoil, the Qin State in the west was quietly rising. Qin Xiaogong appointed Shang Ying as the head of the left house, and implemented the first reform of the law in Qin.

And last year, that is, in 357 BC, King Xuan of Chu sent Right Yin Hei to marry the daughter of Qin Xiaogong and marry Qin State.

Therefore! The State of Qin is not only strong in itself, but also finds the backer of the State of Chu.

The State of Qin and the State of Chu have been married for generations. This! The remarriage strengthened the relationship between the two countries.

Bai Gui returned to Zhoudi this time, mainly in two aspects, and asked him to come forward in person. One! The marriage of daughter Baimei and Wei Ying. Two! The business of Qi and the brother-in-law of Qi Linyi.

Baimei and Wei Ying have become married, and! With a nephew. He had to make a trip to Mount Kun to meet his daughter and son-in-law.

Bai Mei listened to her father's words, did not marry to the Qin State, and lived in seclusion in the Kunshan Mountain, concealing her identity. Wei Yan first disagreed, and then agreed. After a few years of mixing in the officialdom of the Qin State, he vaguely felt that what might be the outcome in the future?

Bai Gui is not wishful thinking to meet his son-in-law Wei Ying, the head of the Qin State, but! The son-in-law sent someone to invite him.

As a giant businessman in the world, the old man is rich and rivals the country, it is impossible for the son-in-law not to have some ideas?

Such a capable father-in-law, if you don't rely on him, you are all a fool. Other than that! Qin Xiaogong, the king of Qin, also wanted to meet Bai Gui and asked Bai Gui to go to Qin to develop business.

The current state of Qin can be said to be in ruins, and it needs a lot of money to pave the way for reform.

Reform! It's not just just talking, it's about starting up with a certain amount of capital.

The second major event of Bai Gui's return to Zhoudi was: the matter of his brother-in-law Linyi.

The Duke of Qi Huan of Qi State fell, and his brother-in-law Lin Yi faced a decision.

Without the backer of Qi Huangong, there are many people who want to kill him and divide his property. And the new king of Qi, who was later King Qi Wei, did nothing for the time being and did not make a statement.

So! Brother-in-law Lin Yi faces a difficult choice: whether to transfer his property or rely on the new king?

He had difficulty making decisions.

And at this time, many old monarchs in Qi wanted to attack him. So! At this time, the brother-in-law Linyi was isolated and helpless. If you are not careful, you may die without a place to be buried.

At this critical moment, Baekyu still decided to help him.

The current Linyi, with the growth of age and experience, coupled with the pain of killing a child, has become mature and has completely changed as a person.

Bai Gui didn't want Lin Yi to misunderstand him for the rest of his life, so! Decided to reconcile with Linyi.

The key question is! Jiang missed her only brother very much, and decided to secretly return to Qi from Yan to meet his brother.

So! Bai Gui wanted to take this opportunity to reconcile with Lin Yi through the Jiang family.

It's not that he is unwilling to reconcile with Linyi, but that Linyi back then was too immature and ignorant, which affected him. In desperation, Jiang was forced to pretend to commit suicide by hanging the beam. The purpose is to stimulate Linyi and make him mature.

But! In order to show loyalty to Duke Qi Huan, Lin Yi's changing lady actually killed his son. Outcome! pushed the relationship between the two sides to a dead end.
