"The Book of Qi * Taishi Hou Sheng Biography" contains: In the autumn of the 17th year of King Qi Xiang, Hou Sheng wrote to King Qi and suggested that King Qi should strike Wudu and go to the county. King Qi left a chapter and did not send it.

Hou Sheng's book caused a lot of uproar in Linzi, as the younger brother of the queen, Hou Xuan's recital made many people think that the king of Qi was going to suppress the Wudu doctor and solve the problem of military power. For a time, the Linzi officialdom was in chaos. Officials who opposed the Wudu system and political enemies of Wudu Dafu wrote to support Hou Sheng, and Wu Du Dafu's cronies and subordinates were also not to be outdone, and wrote to accuse Hou Sheng of violating the ancestral system, lest Qi Guo not be milked. The two factions blamed each other, and for a time a balance of power was formed. So the two factions unanimously made a temporary truce, each waiting for the main force and backstage of their own side.

When Hou Sheng went to school, Zhao Jie was preparing to devote himself to a new round of study in Jixia School Palace. When Xu Yang told Zhao Jie these news, Zhao Jie smiled, and the heart that had been hanging completely fell, and his anxious heart completely settled down.

Ten days after Hou Sheng went to the book, Xiang Guotian returned to the national capital from the border. When Tian Dan arrived at the Linzi City Gate, he was invited to the palace by the king's envoy. They talked secretly for a day and a night, and it was not until the early morning of the next day that Tian Dan returned to his mansion in Linzi. Then Tian Dan closed the door.

Fifteen days after Hou Sheng wrote the book, the eastern capital Jimo doctor Yan Dao, the western capital Pinglu doctor Bao Xin, the southern capital Jucheng doctor Guan Yi, and the northern capital Gaotang doctor Yi Sheng each led 500 personal soldiers for a total of 2,000 elite soldiers to 30 miles outside Linzi City.

16 days after Hou Sheng wrote the book, Xiangguo Tian Dan, Zhongdu Linzi Dafu Tian Dan went to the Sidu Dafu military camp to have a secret conversation with the Sidu Dafu.

"Yi Sheng meets Dashuai." Yi Sheng, a doctor from the Northern Capital Gaotang, knelt down on one knee when he saw Tian Dan.

Yi Sheng was originally the son of an ordinary landlord in Gaotang, who was abducted when he was 4 years old, sold for many years, and finally sold to Tiandan's home. When the Yan army besieged Jimo, Tian Dan wanted to do the plan of the fire ox, and urgently needed a brave and fearless warrior to attack the Yan army with the fire ox, Yi Sheng signed up, and then became famous in the first battle, and was appreciated by Tian Dan, and became Tian Dan's personal soldier, following his expedition to the east and west. In the battle of Linzi, Yi Sheng was the first to climb the city tower, and in the battle of Pinglu, Yi Sheng was burdened with nine wounds, and the Gao Tang Dynasty attacked the city, and he was the first to climb the city tower. After the war, he was awarded the commander of the soldiers and horses of the Tang Dynasty for his merits, and as for today, the official worships the doctor of the northern capital, but he still calls himself a subordinate in front of Tian Dan.

"Meet Sangkook." Yan Dao said. Yan Dao is a descendant of Yan Zi, and his father is Tian Dan's Bole. The Yan family is a big family in Jimo and is the soil emperor of Jimo, while the Tiandan family is only a distant branch of the royal family, and Jimo is a small landlord.

"Guan Yi visits Xiangguo." Guan Yi was more polite to Tian Dan than Yan Dao. Guan Yi is a descendant of Guan Zhong, and he is roughly the same age as Tian Dan, who has always been his rival. For generations, the Guan family guarded the south for the Qi State, resisted the Chu State, and asked the Yan army to attack Qi, it was he who led the people of Jucheng to hold Jucheng for two or three years.

"Bao Xin has seen Xiangguo." After Bao Xin is Bao Shuya, the Bao family was originally a wealthy family in Pinglu, but Pinglu was broken by the Yan army, and the Bao family suffered a serious blow and was no longer beautiful, so he was a little lacking in confidence to speak.

"It's a pleasure to meet you." Tian Dan greeted them one by one, and then continued: "This time I am negotiating with you on behalf of the king, so let's all sit down and talk slowly." Yu Cheng and the others sat down face to face.

"The king hopes that you will take the initiative to give up your military power, and he will be able to retain your administrative power." Tiandan gets straight to the point.

"General Tian, are you kidding, without military power, we are like fish on the anvil, life and death are all in the thought of the court, how can we be sure that you will not unload the mill and kill the donkey." Yan Dao, who has always looked down on Tian Dan, said with a hint of annoyance.

"As long as you hand over your military power, the king will immediately personally issue an order to make you the county guard, and Yin Yizi will be the county order, give a death exemption order, and never break his word" Tian Dan said unhurriedly the conditions given by King Qi Xiang.

After hearing this, Yan Dao was about to scold Tian Dan angrily, when he was tapped on the shoulder, he turned his head to look, only to see Guan Yi come forward and say, "It's not impossible for us to give up military power." Our condition is that we will no longer support the garrison, and our family will raise troops for the Tian family for nearly 300 years, and I hope that the state will be exempted from Jucheng tax for 100 years......"

Guan Yi immediately got to the point, Tian Dan knew that although the Qi State was rich, it had been hiding wealth from the people since Guan Zhong, the scholars were rich, the officials were rich, the business was rich and the country was not rich. The wealth of the five capitals supports the soldiers of the five capitals, the soldiers of the five capitals protect the people of the five capitals, and the people of the five capitals produce the wealth of the five capitals, which is the original intention of Guan Zhongli's system. This policy was a good policy, which initially created the hegemony of Henggong, but in the last years of Jiang Qi, the state politics of Qi was controlled by the ministers of the scholars, and the soldiers and horses of the five capitals gradually became the private soldiers of each family. The agent of the famous family relied on the power of the miserly family to fight for power in Linzi, and finally the Tian family seized Linzi, and took Qi on behalf of Jiang, the five soldiers and horses Tian took two, and Bao Guanyan took three-thirds. Since the establishment of the Tian family, each generation of monarchs has tried their best to suppress the three capitals of the south, east and west, but they have not been able to destroy these three families. After the Yan army broke the Qi Dynasty, the Tian family was severely damaged, and the three families were also traumatized to varying degrees, but the system of the five capitals still witnessed the revival of the Qi State and maintained the stability of the Qi State. If according to what Guan Yi said, the Tian family will not be able to raise the soldiers and horses of the five capitals, and if the soldiers and horses are in chaos, the country of Qi will be in chaos, which is intolerable to the King of Qi, and it is also calculated by Guan Yi.

"The three major families must support the three soldiers." Tian Dan emphasized.

Negotiations continue in this way, and it is unknown when they will be concluded.

Negotiation, which came into being with human language, is accompanied by eternal life and eternity. The essence of negotiation is the exchange of interests, since ancient times, all the troubled times, will be the prosperity of the development of negotiations, the Warring States are no exception, the princes of the countries where the interests of the opposite only two choices, one is war, the other is to talk, so at this time all the people in the world know some negotiation skills, can say that the fickle often have the appointment of the princes. Tian Dan can achieve the position of prime minister, and his ability to negotiate is naturally not weak, and the three major families have a long history, and their ability is not weak, coercion, intimidation, and favors are constantly staged in negotiations.

After a night of difficult talks, the two sides finally reached a consensus and agreed on an agreement. The agreement is as follows:

First, the three major families gradually gave up their military power within three years, and after three years, the five-capital system was abolished, and the Qi State implemented the county system, and the three major families had the right to recommend county guards.

Second, the king of Qi wanted to issue an order to exempt the three major families from taxes for three years, give the three major families a token to avoid death, and appoint the county guards recommended by the three major families.

Third, three years later, the three major families will have to provide for the nearest soldiers and horses. Correspondingly, the King of Qi will grant their cities a high degree of self-cultivation.

Fourth, the four major families withdrew their troops, and the court should thoroughly investigate the source of this matter, severely punish those involved in this matter, and kill those who made the proposal.

18 days after Hou Sheng wrote the book, Linzi City secretly began to investigate the source, and Zhao Jie still didn't know it.

19 days after Hou Sheng wrote the book, the danger was approaching, the Linzi Gao family was wiped out, only Gao Le survived, and his whereabouts are unknown, and Qi Xiangtian Shan also found out further information - "Three Policies of Counties and Counties" was written by a Zhao Zhao.

After 20 days of writing, danger came, and many people named Zhao Zhao in Linzi were assassinated, and the place where Zhao Jie lived also seemed to be under surveillance. These circumstances aroused the vigilance of the internal guards, so the internal guards informed Zhao Jie of the news, and Zhao Jie decided to flee.

After 21 days of being in the book, Zhao Jie, under the leadership of the internal guard, began to flee with Xu Yang.

At midnight, there was a curfew in the whole city of Linzi, and there was no one on the street. There was no moon in the sky, only a few stars and darkness all around. Zhao Jie, Xu Yang, Xingyi and the three guards, the two internal guards, and the four maids and servants walked cautiously on the wide street in night clothes, and the night became their best helper.

"Your Highness, don't worry, the people who defend the city are our people," the commander of the internal guard said to Zhao Jie in a low voice.

After a while, Zhao Jie and his party arrived at the city gate and successfully escaped from Linzi City with the help of Nei Ying.

After leaving the city gate, Zhao Jie and his party quickly ran to the place where the carriage was prepared in advance, and after boarding the carriage, the group ran wildly for dozens of miles until the pre-prepared stopover.

"Your Highness, rest assured, this inn is the liaison office of my internal guard, and the boss is my cronies, and he is loyal and reliable." The commander of the internal guard led Zhao Jie to a bookshelf, he gently turned a roll of bamboo slips, and a secret door suddenly appeared on the wall next to the bookshelf.

"Your Highness, please stay here temporarily, this place is still in the territory of Qi Country, and it is best for us to act at night." The Commander of the Internal Guard continued.

"I'll listen to you." After Zhao Jie finished speaking, he walked into the secret passage. Following the commander of the internal guard over several traps, Zhao Jie came to a clean and refreshing hall.

Zhao Jie walked around the hall and found a statue of a god in a corner. The idol is burly, holding a giant sword, and has a powerful force. Zhao Jie looked at it and suddenly found that it looked like a person. After watching it a few more times, it suddenly dawned on me that this person was like Zhao Jie's ancestor Zhao Wu, and he was Zhao Wu's father, Zhao Yingqi.

Zhao Yingqi is the son of Zhao Yuan, the younger brother of Zhao Dun, Zhao Tong, and Zhao Kuo, and his mother is Zhao Ji, who is called Zhao's Shuangjie with Zhao Dun. In 587 BC, Zhao Yingqi had an affair with his nephew Zhao Zhuangji, and the following year, Zhao Tong and Zhao Kuo exiled him to the Qi State, and since then Zhao Yingqi has stayed in Qiwei. In 583 BC, Zhao Zhuangji was forced by Zhuqing's jealousy of Zhao's situation, in order to keep Zhao Yingqi's bloodline, and said to Jin Jinggong: "Zhao Tong and Zhao Kuo are about to make trouble. Luan and Xin can testify. "In June, the Jin State crusaded against the Zhao family, causing difficulties in the lower palace. When it was difficult to go to the palace, Zhao Yingqi was saved from death because he was in the Qi country.

"Is your ancestor Zhao Yingqi?" Zhao Jie asked.

"Yes." The commander of the internal guard replied, "Down there are the 10 grandsons of Zhao Yingqi. ”
