She said that the little girl had sworn to keep filial piety for the first king, and during the filial piety period, she did not dare to say anything about marriage...... Tian Jia said this, but the old woman was not good at forcing her. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo“

After complaining to his younger brother Hou Sheng about the unfinished matter, the queen stroked the heavy headdress on her head in distress, and complained: "I don't know which palace person with a long tongue spread it, and now the whole Linzi is full of people who praise Tian Jia, and there are many ministers who come to ask for her life, saying that it is really a blessing for the Qi country to be named a princess like her, and her wishes should be granted......"

The distress of the queen came from the fact that Tian Qi had been trying to advocate the moral concept of filial piety since the founding of the country.

In the Spring and Autumn Period, Tian Qi's ancestors were originally just foreign doctors with different surnames, but they took root in the country of Qi surnamed Jiang, gradually grew stronger, and finally defeated other Qing clans, won the hearts of the people, and replaced them.

The new Tian Qi was established on the basis of the old Jiang Qi, which can be said to be a hundred industries to be prospered, and the Tian monarchs were busy recognizing the Yellow Emperor as their ancestors, and created "After having a concubine, it will be bred in Jiang; Fifth Qichang, Yu Zhengqing; After the 8th Dynasty, various mysterious prophecies such as "Mo Zhi and Jing" opened up the legitimacy of his regime.

In addition, the first task after the establishment of the new Qi State was to cultivate the loyalty and support of the subjects. It is not difficult to support, Tian Qi was able to grow after giving benefits to the Zushi people, the old Jiang Qi represents the interests of the nobles, and they represent the interests of the scholars, but the word loyalty is a little embarrassing here in the Tian family.

Because in this process, the Tian clan abused the unscrupulous descendants of Taigongwang badly enough - Qi Jiangong was killed, and Qi Pinggong was purely a puppet. Until the last monarch Qi Kanggong was banished to the sea, leaving only one city of land as a food estate, and the grain from this city was for him to eat.

And Tian Qi's Taigong Tian He, went to see Zhou Tianzi with great interest, listed as princes, they are not like Zhao, Wei and Han three families to start a new stove, but stole Jiang Qi's country name, still called Qi State, this is Zhuangzi's irony of "the hook thief punishes the thief of the country".

In short, the Tian family's theft of the country as Jiang Qiqing's doctor is itself disloyal to the monarch and trampling on loyalty. If the heart of loyalty and patriotism is vigorously promoted, then what about the usurpation of the Tian clan?

Under this political situation, several monarchs of the Tian clan listened to Qi Confucian's theory that "filial piety can be transferred to the king" and began to advocate "filial piety".

At this time, the big clans in the Spring and Autumn Period disintegrated, and the small farming families of five to eight became the basic social unit of the Qi State, and the filial piety of "adoptive parents and loving parents" was just suitable for this social structure. As a result, filial piety was regarded by Tian Qi as a weapon to negate the old patriarchal aristocratic state and build a new absolute monarchy. In this way, governing the country with filial piety has become the foundation of Tian Qi's founding and governing strategy.

As Jixia scholars said in "Guanzi": "If the gentleman is not benevolent, he will not be asked, and if the gentleman is not benevolent, the people will be simple and light, and this chaos will be great." In order to advocate filial piety, the kings of Qi are also practiced, after the death of the first king, although they took off their filial piety clothes, they still wore white filial piety hats, did not eat fish and meat, only ate vegetables, according to the funeral etiquette advocated by Confucius, three years is over, out of the pressure of public opinion of filial piety, King Qi Xuan saw that Jingguo Jun Tian Ying deliberately put on the clothes of King Qi Wei to meet him, and had to avoid the banquet, and also restored Tian Ying's phase for this reason.

The queen herself is also a practitioner of filial piety, when she and King Qixiang made a private agreement for life, and then was named queen, but her father Tai Shi Ji said: "My daughter does not marry herself because of the introduction of the matchmaker, which tarnishes the reputation of the ancestors, and is not worthy of being my daughter." So he did not see the queen for the rest of his life, the queen was virtuous and filial, and did not lose the etiquette of being a child because his father did not see her, but still sent people to take care of his father every year, and repeatedly returned to Jucheng to return to Ningning, which was praised by the people.

Not only the royal family, but also all over the Qi country, the praise of filial sons and filial daughters has also been continuing, such as the daughter of the Linzi Beigong family in addition to earrings and jewelry, and she will not marry when she is old, in order to support her parents, she was regarded as an example by the Qi State government, and the prince and queen of Qi personally met with her, commended her, and set up a workshop for her, and the Empress Dowager Zhao, who was far away in Handan, also knew this person......

The admiration of the court and the opposition of the Qi State for filial piety can be seen, so when Tian Jia proposed that she was named a princess by King Qi Xiang to keep filial piety for the first king, although she knew that she was deliberately delaying the marriage time, the queen could only agree.

Because Tian Jia is very smart, he hit the pain point of the Tian regime in one sentence, "The most important thing for the Tian family to govern the country is a filial piety!" ”

This matter has gone crazy outside, especially Qi Ru and the Ram family, who wish everyone in the world pursued filial piety, and rushed to praise Tian Jia, while the Mo family, who opposed the three-year mourning, was sneering at it, and was disliked by ordinary people without exception...... This lively situation has diluted the haze brought about by the death of King Qi Xiang a lot.

Seeing that the queen was worried about this, Hou Sheng smiled and said: "This is a good thing, my sister should be pleased, it is a rare auspicious thing to have such a filial daughter as an example, but it makes the king's new dynasty a good start!" ”

He persuaded the queen: "Sister doesn't have to forcibly take away affection, this is not beautiful, and the people will say that it is unkind." It's better to compromise and let her serve filial piety for five months before the first king was buried! Anyway, if you are in the palace, you can't run! “

The queen nodded: "That's it." “

Her son Tian Jian has succeeded to the throne, the descendants of the king are in power, and the country of Qi has begun to enter a new era.

As the half-brother of the queen, Hou Sheng naturally rose to the top, and became one of the five senses of the "big line" under the state of Qi, and he was in charge of diplomatic relations with foreign countries.

Unlike when King Qi Xiang was swaying between Qin and Zhao and hesitating, the queen who was sure that Huang Lao ruled with nothing but purity had her own unique views on how to govern the country and how to interact with foreign countries, and this new policy needed to be implemented by people she trusted.

"Communicating with the princes is nothing more than a letter, except for the Yan Kingdom, the rest of the five kingdoms of Qin, Chu, Zhao, Wei, and Han must all send a message of condolences......"

Hou Sheng's spirit was lifted, for the royal family, weddings, funerals, and marriages are all diplomatic means, which is a signal, which means that Qi has let go of narrow prejudices and hopes to be friends with the five countries!

This matter will be handed over to him, a "big bank", to handle properly.

"Zhao Guo especially has to send envoys with higher status, after all, the Empress Dowager of Zhao is the sister of the first prince......" At this time, the queen and Empress Dowager Zhao were a little sympathetic.

"Then do you want to tell An Pingjun alone?" Hou Sheng asked cautiously.

"After all, the monarch and the minister, Anping Jun is also a great hero of the Qi country, although now the monarch and the minister can't do it......" The queen sighed: "I also want him to know that his sons and daughters are doing well in the Qi country, so that he still has to remember a little bit of the friendship of his homeland!" ”

Hou Sheng understood: "Tian Jia, Tian Hu and An Pingjun's family letters, the ministers will carefully check them!" ”

The queen nodded, waved her hand and let Hou Sheng leave, she didn't expect that she would also use this way to control an important minister who had left the Qi country, she was tired, she had to learn to get used to the king's couch like sitting on pins and needles, get used to the invisible heavy crown on her forehead, and it was still a long time before her son grew up and could take power.

After Hou Sheng retired, after going to the "princess" Tian Jia, he asked her to copy a letter to Tian Dan according to the original text that had been prepared by the palace clerk, which was nothing more than to make Tian Dan "feel at ease".

Tian Jia has been wearing mourning clothes these days, and she is very obedient in everything, but when she finished writing the letter according to her instructions and waited for the palace people to take away the sealed gap, she seemed to be bored with the case intentionally or unintentionally, and played with the jade on her waist Hou Sheng said: "The Peiyu of Daxing, isn't it the jade of Kunshan given by Chang'an Junxiang?" “

Hou Sheng's movements froze, but this was deliberately worn by him, so he didn't hide it, and said with a smile: "Yes." “

Tian Jia looked at the palace people not far away, and expected that he would not hear the voice here, so he said: "The little girl heard that Daxing and Chang'an Jun are good?" ”

Hou Sheng nodded: "There are often contacts." He paused, and looked around weakly, but he still didn't suppress the greed in his heart: "Chang'anjun is the most generous son I have ever seen, and he is true to his word, for the sake of my fair lady, but he will spend a lot of money!" “

Although Tian Jia didn't know if this was Hou Sheng's temptation or something else, but now, although she successfully delayed the time for the queen to "give marriage" under the pretext of keeping filial piety, the only person who can save her from her predicament now is Chang'an Jun!

As for the father...... Even if he didn't want to admit it, Tian Jia knew that the loyal ministers of the Qi State had turned into his bone marrow, and he would not resist the orders of the Qi royal family.

So she bowed her head and said, "Can you ask Daxing to pass a word to Chang'anjun for the little girl?" ”

Seeing that those palace people were about to come, Hou Sheng also hurriedly asked, "Please princess speak quickly!" ”

Tian Jia clenched her fists, her eyes resolute: "Tell him, life and death are broad, and talk to Zicheng!" “
