Chapter Seventy-Seven: Ji He's Truce

As soon as Wei Neizai and Sheng Sima heard that their master was awake, they rushed to the couch and asked for warmth. As soon as Wei Hou opened his eyes, he stared at them viciously, so stern that the two of them shrank back unconsciously.

After a while, Wei Hou's coughing and wheezing finally calmed down. Nejae cautiously asked, "Your Majesty, are you feeling better?" ”

"Not good!"

Uchijae was bored with himself, and shrunk his neck back like a turtle.

"Aren't you planning to retire? Why don't you say it? ”

"Don't dare, don't dare." Saint Sima took the lead in pounding the garlic, "The minister doesn't dare to make his own decisions, it's all the idea of the internal ruler." ”

"You ......" Nei Zai suffered a big loss, and he was so angry that he blew his beard and glared at him.

"It's all rubbish!" Wei Hou rebuked sharply, "The widow is not dead yet!" Set off immediately for me and hunt down Ji Dutu! ”

Seeing that the master began to cough wildly again, Neizai couldn't help but persuade: "Your Majesty, you can't stand such a saddle horse!" Revenge is a long way to come. If you have three longs and two shorts, you really, really lose completely. ”

In the last two sentences, although Nejae said it awkwardly, it was the truth. Wei Hou knows that his years are numbered, and his son is not strong, can he not be heartbroken when he hears this. The old man was so sad that he couldn't help but burst into tears.

Seeing this, Saint Sima couldn't help but feel sad. He has served the guards for so many years, and he has never seen the scenes of the old man's anger and tears. It is really embarrassing that the personable monarch in "Qi Ao" ended up like this in the last years of the wind and candle. But who is to blame for all this? His own immorality in his later years was the source of the tragedy.

Nei Zai is like an old slave who knows his heart, he understands that his master is also bitter in his heart, but he can't swallow this breath when he loses his face. So, he helped find the steps and said: "Your Majesty, now our Holy Sixth Division is still in hand, and by next year, the Wei Division will be able to recover half, and the military strength at that time will be enough to crush Uncle Zheng." In addition, although Zhou Shenjin and Zheng converged, it was only a temporary group. When our threat wanes, they will have their own contradictions. At least, then Ji Yijiu won't sit back and watch Zheng Bogong shake the master......"

"So let's hold our ground for now." Saint Sima observed the words and saw that Wei Hou showed signs of softening, so he quickly snatched the conversation.

Wei Hou waved his hand, not wanting to listen to the two clowns fighting for merit anymore. But he also had no new instructions, which was a tacit acquiescence.

In stark contrast, the digging and the group are flying happily. At this time, the Yellow River has been calm, and everyone does not need to be afraid, and they can also enjoy the steep scenery along the way. When passing by Xinyu City, they also knocked on a bamboo pole from Yu Shi's father. even ate and took it, and showed off his might, so that Ji Yijiu, who fled in a hurry, let out a bad breath.

When Mengjin was out of Mengjin and everyone landed, Luoyi was already in sight. In this place where King Wu of Zhou and 800 princes swore to fight, Ji Yijiu was interested, and he actually built an altar to worship his ancestors. Judging from the triumphant sacrificial words, he already has a bit of a posture of comparing himself to the king of martial arts. Di Tu watched coldly, thinking that this guy was quite ambitious, otherwise he would not have moved the capital in a big way in the official history, saving the second half of the Zhou Dynasty.

It's just that, under the disturbance of the traverser, will Ji Yijiu still walk out of the same trajectory?

With a trace of doubt, he came to Luoyi, the eastern capital of Huanghuang built by Zhou Gong.

The city is as good as Hokyung. After all, when the capital was built, King Wen was still in a corner of peace, and when Luoyi started construction, King Cheng had already sat firmly in the world. They entered the city through the Dry Sacrifice Gate on the north side. Here, the city gate is more magnificent, the road is wider and straighter, and the lane is more uniform. The only one that is slightly inferior in scale is the Central Palace, which secretly coincides with the status of the capital.

Ji Yijiu also seemed to rarely come to the Eastern Capital, and his expression was also a little surprised. However, as soon as he entered the palace, he regained the feeling of his master, and instructed the officials who stayed behind to arrange the living conditions of several princes, without the slightest bit of life. Just as everyone was thanking, an attendant suddenly came to report that the messenger of the Marquis of Wei had come.

Ji Yijiu, who was fluttering just now, suddenly showed some timidity. He turned his head to look at Uncle Zheng, as if he was a little unsure of Wei Hou's attitude. Digging Suddenly understood, and responded loudly: "Just let him in." Remember, ask him to bow to the king. ”

The envoy of the guard entered in response to the announcement, fell to the ground with a plop, and made a complicated salute without hesitation. Seeing this, Dutu and Marquis Jin looked at each other and smiled, knowing that Marquis Wei was ready to admit it.

Sure enough, the Wei envoy took out Wei Hou's book and believed it, and his words and sentences were very sincere, without the arrogant style of the past. Although the letter downplayed his guilt, at least the king's voice was very cordial. The long narrative of King Qin's exploits is obviously in the hope of seeking forgiveness. Of course, at the end, I don't forget to emphasize the Holy Zhou Zhao and the Holy Sixth Division, which can be regarded as a hidden needle in the cotton, suggesting that his strength is still not to be underestimated.

Digging Tu had no intention of killing them all, so he naturally expressed his attitude regardless of his previous suspicions. As long as Wei Hou is lost, he will still be a good comrade for everyone.

In this struggle, Ji Yijiu had accidentally picked up a big gift bag, and he couldn't wait to stop the army as soon as possible so as to consolidate the gains in hand. The ideas of the Marquis of Jin and the Marquis of Shen were similar, so everyone had no differences and expressed their willingness to reconcile.

The guard who was lying on the ground breathed a sigh of relief and quickly wiped the sweat beads on his forehead with his sleeve. Ji Yijiu, who was sitting on the throne, was in a more comfortable mood, and immediately announced that he would feast the ministers five days later, and he would be rewarded for his meritorious deeds. At this time, everyone in the court was very happy, but the magistrate here had a black line on his face. In the chaotic years, Luoyi, which no one cares about, is even short of the materials it usually needs, and it is really difficult to hold a state banquet with the specifications of the Son of Heaven.

At this time, Di Tu was the first to think of Ji Jiang. Xiao Bisheng is newly married, and he is a little embarrassed when he thinks of his baby wife. He instructed Xian Ke: "Now that the Marquis of Wei has ceased war, the road to Wangji will be safe and unblocked. You send someone to inform Jing Sheng to come back. ”

"Is the gentleman worried about Sima, or is he worried about Madame?" Xianke smiled evilly.

Dutu's face turned red, thinking that this division was too unsuccessful and did not go up or down, and he actually dared to "tease" the master. He pretended to reprimand: "I want you to talk too much, go and get down to business." “

"No! The minister will do it. Xian Ke still smiled, "But when it comes to business, the minister has an idea. ”

"If there's a fart, let it go."

"Did you notice the embarrassment of the Luoyi City officials just now? He was worried about the king's banquet in five days! Our Zheng Guo has a developed business, and we can take the initiative to do business with them and help him solve the problem of money but shortage of materials. ”

He glanced at the strings of his eyes, thinking that a businessman is a businessman after all, and he is still so sensitive to business opportunities when he is in office. When you have money but it's hard to buy things, shouldn't you ask for a sky-high price? However, before next year's Zhuji Conference, it is estimated that there will be no more wars, and he also plans to shift his energy to the economic construction of Xinzheng State. So, digging out and pondering to continue to promote the long-term impact of the pro-business policy, Xian Ke pondered to make some cool money for the chamber of commerce, and the two hit it off.

"After you understand the needs of the Luoyi City Officials, ask the Si Shang Candle to come forward and coordinate the entire procurement work. You work hard and grasp this line, and in the future, the royal family's annual use will be taken care of by Zheng Guobao. ”

"How much will you spend in the future?" Xianke was a little puzzled, "The royal family can be stationed in Hokyona, which is thousands of miles away. After this vote is finished, the Son of Heaven will return to Beijing, and it will be difficult to do business from such a distance. ”

"How do you know that the Son of Heaven is going back?"

"What?" Xianke's eyes widened, "Do you want to move the capital?" ”

"I don't know, you can do it." Dutu pretended to be mysterious, and "teased" the other party.

In this way, Xian Ke helped the city officials of Luoyi solve their urgent needs. Originally, although Ji Yijiu put out the big talk for the sake of face, he still had a point for the actual shortage of materials. Therefore, on the eve of the feast, he deliberately went to inspect the work, but unexpectedly found that the preparation was no worse than that of Hojing.

Ji Yijiu inquired about the inside story, and the city officials naturally didn't dare to take credit, so they hurriedly told the truth. When this son of troubled times heard this, he suddenly had mixed feelings, and while he had a long face, he had to owe Zheng Bo a favor again. Although he already owed Uncle Zheng a lot of favors, it didn't hurt to add another one. But as the saying goes, the Son of Heaven, who has to rely on Ditu for everything, has gradually become a little uncomfortable.

Five days later, the princes and ministers gathered in the court. Although the official enthronement ceremony is scheduled for next year's Zhuji Conference, Ji Yijiu's etiquette when he goes to court today is no different from that of the Son of Heaven. After the crowd made a big salute, several princes paid tribute. Originally, the trip was in a hurry, and no one brought anything, but with the "help" of Zheng Bo's merchants, everyone's gifts were not shabby. Only the poor guard, no one cared for him, and he was not embarrassed to salute empty-handed.

After Ji Yijiu ceremoniously pushed and let three times, he accepted the dowry, and the next thing was the highlight - the reward ceremony. Unexpectedly, the first person he rewarded was not Uncle Zheng.
