Wuxian frowned after hearing Kan Zhi's words.

"The monarch summoned Confucius?"

He left Feng Rin as an eyeliner on Lu Cheng's side, paying close attention to every move of the center of Lu State. Feng Rin's words were sent back like this: "Gong and Confucius speak, I don't know that I am in front of my knees, I don't get tired of talking from time to time, and I forget to eat!" ”

The questioning lasted for several hours, and after Confucius retreated, a shocking news also spread to the Lu Palace.

Lu Hou persuaded Fei Yi to be meritorious with Confucius, and appointed him to replace Liu Xiaji, who stepped down because of the suspicion of avoiding thieves, as a reckless teacher, and Jue as a doctor!

"Wanton?"

Kan Zhi said: "It is the master of the world, who is ranked below the great uncle, who is in charge of and formulates the sacrificial rites of the state, entertains the princes who come to the court, and practices the relevant etiquette. ”

This position is one of the six officials in the Zongzhou period, which is relatively secluded, and the master of the Jin State has been merged with the little Zongbo, so Zhao Wuxian did not hear of it in the Jin Dynasty, but the old Lu Bang has reservations.

It is said that Feng Rin said that at that time, Confucius gave three orders, but Lu Hou did not allow it, and then accepted the position.

"The position of a teacher happens to be what Confucius is good at, and the monarch appointed him to this position, and with Confucius's ability, he must be able to make a lot of political achievements to ......"

In this way, he also jumped from a poor man to a doctor! In this process, he had the opportunity to cross several times, "the strength of Confucius, the gate of the country, and refused to hear it with force", entered Qi and refused to accept the fiefdom of the Marquis of Qi, and finally took the most difficult path.

After Zhao Wuxian's chaotic incursion and the ups and downs in Zhongdu, history took a turn. Quietly turned back again. Confucius did not become a small Sikong from the central capital as in history, but became a reckless teacher. But he still got Lu Hou's attention and entered the palace he had been looking forward to for a long time. Participate in politics in the capital!

Under the recommendation of Zhao Wuxian, among his disciples, Zai Yu will be appointed as Zhongdu Zai, and Zilu will be appointed as Sima of Yangguan.

Although Zhao Wuxian's forces and Confucius are now in the honeymoon period of cooperation, Confucius is a reckless teacher, and Wuxian does not know whether this is a good thing or a bad thing. But in any case, after Confucius entered the game. There are one more variables within the country of Lu!

"It's snowing!"

At this moment, there were bursts of exclamations outside, put down these thoughts, walked out of the window without a shirt, and looked at the snowflakes falling in the dim sky, not only him, but also the soldiers guarding with spears and halberds at the door, and the black-clothed subordinates who passed by with bamboo scrolls all looked up and watched.

The shirtless put on the warm winter coat sent by Ji Ying in the autumn, and let the snowflakes fall on his shoulders. muttered in his mouth:

"The New Year of Lu has arrived...... I don't know if it's snowing in the lower palace of the Jin Kingdom? ”

……

After the time entered November, it was the beginning of the ninth year of Luhou Song. After more than a month of dazzling tossing, the era of Yanghu's "courtiers and recklessness" came to an end. But what is the new era that comes with the first winter snow?

Is it the revival of Sanhuan?

Is it that Confucius's disciples are all over the country of Lu, as he idealized to "restore the rule of the Zhou Dynasty"?

Is it the most stubborn rock of Onozawa's thieves who swept through the whole of Lu and defeated the Ji Zhou feudal system?

Or Zhao Wuxian, who is in the west, can gain more territory and voice in the Lu country. And even the final step?

No one knew that the various forces within the country of Lu had begun to hibernate and lick their wounds.

After the Ji family returned to Feiyi. Desperately regaining strength; The Meng clan claimed to be the first hero of the Yanghu Rebellion, not to mention that his subordinates were full of talents. is trying to fight for the right to speak, and wants to be on an equal footing with Ji's; The Shusun clan is gathering the remnants of the clan soldiers and trying to keep their throne.

As a result, Sanhuan's forces were balanced again, but from the uncle and the Meng clan jointly preventing the Ji clan, to the Ji clan and the uncle and grandson partnering to resist the pressure of the Meng clan.

In the eyes of the outside world, the thief seemed to be stunned, and could not come out of hibernation after escaping back to his lair. Half of the booty looted by the bandits around Onozawa was cheaper than Zhao Wuxian, and the population under their control also lost a lot, but fortunately, they were able to survive on surplus food, fishing and hunting. The knowledgeable old people in the surrounding cities are worried that when the winter wheat and other crops are ripe in the summer of next year, under the persecution of hunger, these robbers will attack even more frantically!

In the Lucheng Rebellion, Shusun Zhi, who was captured by the military guards, was hated by Shusun Prefecture and held a ceremony in Zongmiao, announcing that he would be "expelled" from the Shusun clan, and then killed in Lu City. Compared with the Yi Zai and Yi Sima in Feiyi, Gongshan Bufu and his uncle and grandson who were safe and sound; or Yang Yue and Ji Ning, who were brought back to Xiaqiu and imprisoned by Zhao Wuxian as hostages in the name of Xiao Sikou, Shusun Zhi can be regarded as the most miserable Yang Tiger henchmen.

Although Yang Hu himself ran to Guancheng, he had been desperately helping the Jin people to attack Qi in the past few years, and he had offended the Qi people too much, so he didn't dare to surrender Qi. can only curse Zhao Wuxian and Kong Qiu, who are stepping on his top position, while relying on the thousands of rooms to survive.

……

As for Lu's northern neighbor Qi State, more than half a month ago, when he learned of Lu's rebellion for the first time, the Marquis of Qi was extremely excited and summoned the princes and doctors to discuss it. Xiaqing Chen believes that Lu will be in chaos and should take the opportunity to attack Lu, even if he violates the rule of "no longer serving", he will not hesitate to forcibly recruit Qi people!

Chen Qi swore and said: "Your Excellency, you can rest assured that the Gao Tang side will make every effort to defend against the assistance of the Jin State, and at the same time provide enough food and straw, so that the country and Gao Erqing can go south to attack Lu, and they will be able to conquer it!" ”

Lu Guo has always been Qi's elbow and armpit problem, and Qi Hou is itching on one side, and on the other hand, he is worried about Chen's intentions, so he can't make a decision. So he braved the snow to run to the Yan mansion to visit Yan Ying, who had been ill for a long time, and also wanted to ask for his opinion.

After greetings and greetings, Qi Hou knelt on the side of Yan Zi's couch, and his first words were: "Lu Ke is good? ”

Yan Zi is nearly eighty years old, he is already dying, and he has long lost the spirit of being able to accompany Qi Hou to the platform of the road, he is already dark, thin and short, and now he is curled up in a ball, and the old age spots on his face are squeezed together. Hot bamboo charcoal burned in the copper furnace, and Yan Ying held the hand stove in his arms, wrapped in a thick quilt and still shivering—it is said that the Yan clan was ready for the aftermath.

He opened his eyes and glanced at Qi Hou, who was also gray, and said slowly: "One hundred and fifty years ago, in the rebellion of Qingfu, the first monarch Huan Gong also asked the same question to the pedestrian who went to Lu to send an envoy, does the gentleman know what that pedestrian said?" ”

"I want to hear about it."

Pedestrians said: No, Lu is still Bing Zhou Li, Zhou Li, although it is not applicable to Qi State, but it is the foundation of Lu Liguo. When a kingdom is about to die, it is like a tree dying of disease, and its trunk falls first, and then the branches and leaves fall. Lu Guo did not abandon Zhou Li, it was still there at all, and it was not moving...... Your Majesty, what the pedestrian said back then is also what the old minister wanted to say. ”

Qi Hou sighed when he heard this: "Lu still has Zhou Liyan? I'm afraid that when Lu Zhaogong came to defect to my Qi country more than ten years ago, he no longer existed, right? First of all, the three huan dictatorships, and now the courtier Yang Hu is above it, and its domestic wealth is heavy, and the people are poor, and they have defected to the robbers. Now that Lucheng is in turmoil, Yanghu and Sanhuan are fighting, this opportunity is rare in a hundred years, how can you let it go? ”

Yan Zi said: "That's right, Yang Hu is not going, and it is difficult to do it, but the old minister heard that under the intervention of Wu Xian, the son of Zhao Qing of the Jin State, and Kongqiu, the central capital, the civil strife has been calmed down, and only one Yang Hu is left to divide the city." ”

"But Chen thinks that the three Huan disputes in the Lu State, and Yang Hu can be the internal response at the border pass, and Zhao Wuxian is unpredictable, and the theft has not completely subsided, so the fighter still exists."

Yan Ying heard Chen's words, sneered and shook his head.

"Although the doctors at the upper level of the Lu country are chaotic, the scholars and the people of the country should not be humiliated, if the country and the high son are attacked, I am afraid that they will be killed. For example, the old ministers of Confucius once prevented the king from using it, because the so-called Fuzhou ceremony did not meet the situation of the Qi country. If he is used by Lu Hou, although it is absolutely impossible to enrich the country and strengthen the army, he may be able to revitalize the current situation, revive etiquette, and let the Lu country strengthen the monarchy and breathe for a while longer......"

He reluctantly bowed on the couch and said: "The old minister's life is not long, and there is only one sentence I hope the king will listen to!" ”

Qi Hou hurriedly supported him and said, "Doctor Yan, please speak." ”

"It is understandable that the monarch has the ambition to restore the hegemony of the Duke of Qi Huan, but as in the situation that the Duke of Huan faced back then, you should be engaged in stabilizing the calamities of the surrounding small countries and taking the opportunity to bring them close, so that you can become allies and remove the wings of the Jin Kingdom. Close to the ceremonial states such as Lu and Song, support the states that still exist with monarchy such as Wei and Beiyan, the states that are scattered internally such as Jin, and the states that are dark and turbulent such as Ju, this is the instrument of the overlord! ”

This is Yan Zi's strategic plan for the Qi State, Qi Hou promised, and then just like before Guan Yiwu's death, Qi Huan Gong asked about the successor, and he also asked Yan Ying If he was not there, who could assist the Qi State?

Yan Zi can be said to be a dying person, his words are also good, he thought for a moment and said: "Qi now has four ministers, although Bao Zi (Bao Guo) is older than the ministers, but the body is tough, his words are the words of the old Cheng to seek the country, the king must listen; Although Guozi (Guoxia) is young, he is good at military affairs, and he can make it outside; Gao Zi (Gao Zhang) has handled government affairs many times and participated in the princes' alliance, although he has no extraordinary talent and is not decisive enough, but he is not steady, and can be used to preside over internal affairs. ”

Sanqing was ready, Qi Hou bowed his head, but asked such a sentence.

"Where's Chen?"

Hearing this, Yan Ying suddenly broke out with a violent cough, and only after half a sound did he come to his senses, his dim old eyes stared at the monarch, and he gasped: "Only ...... Only the Chen family, if the monarch doesn't want the Qi country surnamed Jiang to become the Qi country with the surname of the concubine, he must not be in charge, be careful! ”

……

Also at the beginning of November, the expelled son Zhao Wuxian was in the Pingyang Tiger Rebellion in Lu State, and the news that he was named the doctor in Yuncheng and was the little Sikou was also transmitted back to the Jin State.

Although it is not enough to shock the whole country, the expelled son who is 16 years old should have lost everything and lived a good life. But Zhao Wuxian was alone, but he dared to go to a foreign country to start from scratch, but he could achieve such an achievement in one year, which was enough to shock everyone who knew him!
