Qingji walked out of the carriage with Yingxiang. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info stood on the wheels and looked ahead. I saw two armies huddled tightly on the road. Some cars have pulled into the fields on both sides of the road. The wheels were stuck in the slush and could not move. Many soldiers were pushing and shouting at each other.

Yingxiang put his hand on the canopy and watched with great interest. While asking, "Which way of the princes' men and horses are ahead?" ”

The general replied, "I haven't inquired yet." Look at the flag. It seems to be the state of Chu and the state of Lu. ”

At this time, Ah Qiu walked over quickly. Clenched his fists and said, "King." Uncle Qin. The last general just inquired and understood. The dispute ahead was the honor guard of the King of Chu and the Duke of Lu. ”

Qingji was surprised: "Lu Chu and the two countries." What is the cause of each other? ”

The armies of Qin and Wu also escorted them front and rear. So Qingji and Yingxiang are still some distance away from the two sides crowded in front of them. I can't know the things of life directly. Ah Qiu Fang had just stepped forward to inquire and understand. Hurriedly said: "Return to the king." The honor guards of the monarchs of Chu and Lu rushed to this intersection together. Due to road congestion. Only the princes of the road are allowed to pass. A prince must be courteous.

Lu Ren said. The monarch of the state of Lu is a first-class duke. Honorable status. And the monarch of Chu is just a viscount. It should be avoided on the side of the road. But the Chu people said. Chu is a powerful country in the world. There are Qianzhong and Wujun in the west. There are Xiazhou and Haiyang in the east. There are Dongting in the south, Cangwu in the north, and Fenyang in the north. The territory is vast. For the princes

During the reign of King Cheng. He has been called a prince from the abolition of the viscount. Zhou Tianzi was helpless. and give it flesh. To the Chu State Zhener Southern Yiyue Rebellion. No invasion of China. The supremacy of the state of Chu was recognized. Hence the title of King of Chu. It is higher than Lu Gong. Ask Lu Gong to give way. The people of Lu Gong said that the Chu people usurped the throne. Only the viscount of Zhou Tianzi was recognized. It does not recognize the self-feudal princes of the Chu people. The two sides do not give in to each other. It was a quarrel. Blocked roads. ”

In the many states of the world. Lu Guo is a sect with the surname Ji. The princes look at the country. The monarch of the state of Lu is a first-class duke. And the monarch of Chu is just a viscount. Logically. Indeed, the state of Chu should give way. If it was when Zhou Tianzi could still control the princes of the world. The State of Chu would never dare to be so presumptuous. At that time, the monarch of Chu State participated in the assembly of princes. Not even qualified to enter the house. You can only mingle with the servants. Help to hold the bundle of firewood. Take care of the stove. If you dare to transgress the etiquette system. Yugui was already taken back by Zhou Tianzi. Abolish his title. Collect its territory. However. Who would dare to treat Chu like this now?

The State of Lu may not have had the courage to have a grudge with the State of Chu. But when he came, the king of Chu was young. Prestige is not high. and because of Wu Guo and the two internal ministers, there were troubles one after another. As a result, the national strength has been greatly reduced. Now the princes meet in Huangchi. The public name is the edict of Zhou Tianzi. And the country of Lu is the country that is the most respectful. Up to Lu Gong. Down to the Secretaries. Whether it's a matter of national importance. Or a subsection of exchanges. Never forget the law Zhou Gong. The teachings of the ancestors of the kings.

If this time he made way for the viscount of Chu. That was a matter of losing face to the country of Lu. It is a very serious faux pas. So Lu Gongji Song even if he was hard-headed. I also have to compete with the Chu State. It's just that the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse. Although the state of Chu suffered a big loss at the hands of the state of Wu. It is still not a country that the princes of the world can despise. Can Lu Gongji Song please him?

Although Qin and Wu were not necessarily very close to Chu. But after all, they are all allies of the South. And it has always been a country that has been rejected by the princes of the Central Plains. As soon as I heard this, I felt the same hatred for the enemy.

Ji Xiangpi said with a smile: "Duke Lu is a first-class duke. And I, the Qin State, am the earl. It seems that he is not qualified to step forward to dissuade him. The first sunny day after the snow. The scenery is just right. If you and I don't make a fire here? While enjoying the snowy scenery. Drinking while playing chess. How about waiting for them to divide the upper and lower levels? ”

Qingji laughed and said: "My ancestor Taibo of the Wu Kingdom was posthumously named an earl after his death. The Founding Monarch was made a viscount. The status is even more humble. Now I'm the king of Wu. Lu Gong may not be willing to admit it. So...... I just had to wait on the sidelines. A-hate. Make a fire and cook wine. Set up the chessboard. Wait for the widow and Uncle Qin to play a few rounds first. ”

So the two ** teams of Qin and Wu stopped. The two armies in front were noisy. They insulted each other in the dialects of Chulu and Lu. Later, the armies of Qin and Wu were stationed in place. It was already noon. And they buried pots and cooked in the wasteland on both sides of the road. The fire that makes the fire. Pickers of firewood. and his own guards. Hold the snow and boil it in medium. Scalding wine for the king.

Qingji and Yingxiang rolled up the curtains. He sat cross-legged in the car. While playing chess. While drinking. Qin Bo's chess play is not good. The level of keeji is also limited. Two stinky chess baskets played two games. I lost interest. Look up. The two sides in front of them have gradually developed from verbal altercations to physical conflicts. Yingxiang couldn't help laughing and said, "Ha." I'm going to have fun watching it soon. ”

But after a while. The quarrel between the two sides is getting quieter and quieter. The two sides then separated. The honor guard of the king of Chu walked away. Lu Jun retreated to the side.

Qingji and Yingxiang looked at each other. A look of disdain flashed across his face at the same time.

The Chu army marched through the road in a mighty way. until they are far away. Lu Jun then set off. Yingxiang sighed: "This Lu Gong. It's really bearable. The meeting of the Yellow Pond. Most of them are the princes of the Central Plains. If Lu Guoken maintains the royal road. Perseverance. Chu Guo couldn't help him. Such as the Chu State Xing Army. The state of Lu will receive the sympathy and support of the princes of the Central Plains. Pity. He was still cowardly. ”

Qingji smiled: "In the past, when the king of Chuzhuang was king. dared to openly ask the Son of Heaven for Jiuding. How can you look at the royal etiquette system in your eyes today? However, Lu Guo either does not fight. It has already been argued. There is no such anticlimactic reason. There may be unknown reasons for this. Wait until we get to the Yellow Pond. You may wish to send someone to inquire. ”

"That's right!" Qin Bo smiled. And again: "Now it's your turn and mine." The road ahead is narrow. Only one army is allowed to pass. Which of us comes first and who comes last? ”

Qingji smiled. said humbly: "Uncle Qin is Qingji's brother-in-law. It should be Qin Bo first. ”

Yingxiang laughed. But a look of disappointment flashed in his eyes......

Qingji returned to his car. Yingxiang said goodbye first. Lead the army in front. Qingji led Wu Jun Shi Ran to Huangchi after him. Huangchi has now stationed more than ten large and small princes. It depends on the number of troops dispatched by each country. The Song State had already demarcated the territory required by each country in advance. Planting flags for identification. And he sent messengers to lead the way. The princes of the nations have arrived. Their own messengers were introduced into their lands.

It's time to celebrate the taboo. I saw that some of the princes were encamping. The states of Chu and Lu, who were still fighting for the road just now, were setting up large and small marching tents in their respective camps. There were also soldiers digging pits and burying stoves. Cook rice and boil water. Qingji had just settled down in the place designated for the state of Wu. The gate was just tied. The monarch of the country came to pay a visit.

The name of the country is unknown. It is a small country in the Huaisi River Valley. It has always been attached to the state of Wu. Now I see that King Wu has arrived. Of course, the younger brother wants to come to meet the eldest brother.

Qingji didn't put on a shelf. Immediately warmly received the monarch of the state of Yi. For the big tent has not yet been tied. The two stood in the gate and talked for a while. Soon. There were also some small southern monarchs who were attached to Wu and rushed to see it. Seeing this, the monarch of the country hurriedly said goodbye and left.

The same program was played out in other princely camps. Which country is powerful. The territory is huge. The more younger you have. If the country is strong, the princes will not run to visit other princes at this time. They still have to hold the necessary shelves. Even the newly established princes such as the Zhi clan, the Fan clan, and the Zhongxing clan who were deeply favored by the Qi State. They are proud of their identity. Nor will they visit each other when their camp has not yet been set up.

Qingji met with Wu Guo's younger brothers. The camp was also set up. Qingji marched all the way and rarely bathed. His subordinates cooked soup with fresh snow. Qingji entered the tent and bathed. Changed into a light robe. Walked out of the back tent refreshed. Ah Qiu stepped forward and said, "Great King." The Admiral has already inquired. Only then did Chu Lu argue. Qi Hou, who was passing by another road, had already gotten the news. He sent the doctor Tian Qi to persuade him. Persuade Lu Jun to give way to Chu. Only then did the entanglement be resolved. ”

"Oh? The country of Qi was indeed driven by Tian Qi. Qingji sat down on the couch. A little groaning. Laughing: "Then it's no wonder. When it is a great power today. It's only Qi Chu. Ji Songdi's bones are hard. I didn't dare to offend the two major powers of Qi and Chu at the same time. It's just that...... Ji Song doesn't have such a broad mind. Tian Qi pressed each other with momentum. Ji Song must be resentful of him in his heart. ”

Ah Qiu grinned: "What does it matter? Ji Song hated him so much that he wanted to die. I can't help Qi Guo. ”

Qing Ji smiled and said, "That's what I said." However, Qi people are so eager for quick success. Offend neighbors. Not necessarily a good thing. It's just that it's not there yet. That's right. Has Yingcicada arrived? "Queen Dongyi has arrived for a day. They were placed next to Xun Guo. ”

"Got it. Go and settle the three sergeants. ”

I thought that I would be able to see Cheng Bi after a long absence tonight. Qingji felt a burst of excitement in his heart. Hurriedly waved his hand.

Ah Qiu retreated. Zuo Bingwei Chujie hurriedly walked in again. Said: "King." Someone sent a secret letter. Please enlighten the king himself. ”

"Oh?" Qingji took it. I looked at it over and over again. I don't see any signs on it. He asked, "Did anyone say who sent it?" ”

"Nope."

The secret letters were all written in silk cloth. There can be no mechanism in the squish. Qingji took it apart. I saw only one line of beautiful seal characters in it. It's written as "a body of makeup." Pay with Lang. Come and see. Don't be a concubine. But the Deyi people. Enough wishes. ”

At that time, the word Yiren did not refer exclusively to women. Who are the Diyi people referring to in this clueless sentence? Qingji knew it when he saw it. I can't help but look at the silk and be stupid.

Cai Jie stood opposite and saw the king and thought about it. I don't know whether to quietly retreat or continue to wait there. Hesitated. Fang asked softly, "Great King?" ”

Qingji raised his head. He asked with a strange expression, "Song Guo...... No. Wei...... No....... Uh......"

"Huh?"

"The defender of the country is here...... Mrs. Jun Nanzi? ”

"This ...... I don't know. ”

"Hmm. Stand down. Summoning the eyes and ears to see you. ”

A moment of effort. The leader in charge of the Ear and Eye Division, who had already rushed to the Song Kingdom, appeared in front of Qingji. Ask him. Sure enough. This time, the patriotic participation in the alliance is not the monarch Ji Yuan. It's Mrs. Jun's Nanzi.

The princes are in agreement. It should be attended by the king of a country. Patriotic is no exception. It is said that at that time, Mrs. Jun's wife Nanzi was in her mother's home Song Kingdom. Wei Hou Ji Yuan led his troops to the meeting. Halfway through the journey, he suddenly fell seriously ill. He was forced to return to the capital for healing. So he hurriedly authorized Mrs. Jun Nanzi to supervise the country. Go to the meeting of the Yellow Pond on your behalf. This one comes. The meeting of the Yellow Pond is very different from the previous alliance of princes. That is, there are two women in the alliance. One is Nanzi, the wife of Wei Guojun. The other is naturally Queen Yingcian of Dongyi.

Tian Qi just wanted to put Qi Hou in the position of the overlord of the world. Thus increasing their own power. It doesn't matter if it's a hen or a rooster. Therefore, there is no doubt about the participation of two women in politics. Qi Guo has no opinion. The other princes were naturally too lazy to ask for their own interest.

Qingji nodded after hearing this. asked, "Is Wei Hou really seriously ill?" ”

The leader of the Ear and Eye Division said with a sad face: "After the Marquis returns to the capital. He was treated in the palace. In addition to the people close to him and the imperial doctor in the palace. Even the Manchu civil and military forces couldn't see him. Subordinates are unable to approach the center. I really can't get any definite news. But...... The minister sent someone to buy off the palace guards. Get a message. Ground water flows out of the drainage ditch of the palace of the marquis. It is often mixed with some medicine residue. ”

Qingji nodded thoughtfully......

Night. The hustle and bustle of the day is gone. The whole land fell silent. Wu Guoying's land gate opened. Dozens of guards escorted a carriage out of the gate.

The sky was dark. The starlight reflects the snow. The earth was shrouded in a vastness that seemed unreal. The wind was howling. From time to time, a blanket of snow foam rolls in. Seep into the stalk of the person's neck. Swift turned into a water mark. Cool and straightforward.

The carriage drove out of the Wu military camp. Turn right. Bypass the camp of the Lu State and continue to move forward. Sail to the camp of the Patriotic State.

Meanwhile. A carriage, guarded by more than 100 samurai, was passing in front of the Wei Guo Camp. Come this way. The guards in front of them held two lanterns aloft in their hands. A lantern has a large "Qi" character written on it. Another lantern has a large "Tian" written on it.

Warm as spring in the carriage. There were two men dressed in fox furs and crowns on their heads. The one on the left looks serene. Manners are elegant. But the eyes are like electricity. Don't be angry. The one on the right is like a hook. Stocky as a tiger. On the head, the crown hangs down, and the hair hangs down. It is different from the Central Plains princes.

Sitting in this car is Tian Qi, the secretary of the Qi State. and Ji Chun, the monarch of the Northern Yan Kingdom. After King Wu of Zhou won the world. Seal the land of Beiyan to Zhaogong. Zhaogong led a large number of Zhou Dynasty nobles to Beiyan. With the local Shang Dynasty ministers and natives, the Northern Yan Kingdom was established. Because most of the people of Yan are from the Donghu family. Therefore, the nobles of the Zhou Dynasty who were subject to the feudal Northern Yan were influenced by the locals. Clothing and customs have been assimilated.

After the founding of the Yan State, there was little contact with the Central Plains. Therefore, it is rarely mentioned in the Central Plains. Because the Yan kingdom was often invaded by the Hu people further north. It is all up to the support of the Qi State to gain a foothold. Therefore, it has always been subordinate to Qi. This time, the state of Qi intends to compete for the hegemony of the world. This little brother naturally rushed to cheer for the big brother.

Tian Qi sat in the car and smiled: "Look at today." can compete with my country. Not half of it. Southern princes. Maybe I am reluctant to fight for hegemony. But it's hard to find a force that can compete with my Qi country. The territory of Chu is vast. The crown of the nations. But in recent decades, there has been no peace within the Chu State. In addition, the king of Chu is still a child. There is no hope of hegemony.

As for the state of Qin. He was also considered powerful among the princes. But it is still not as strong as the state of Chu. Moreover, the state of Qin lived far away in the west. The wind of barbarism is even worse than that of the Chu State. Barbarians who have not been educated by the Zhou rites. How can I become the chief of the princes in my sect? ”

Ji Chun smiled: "What Doctor Tian said is true. But...... though the widow is in the north. I also heard that the East China Sea is a bogey. Unstoppable. Now it seems to have the trend of the southeast hegemon. The king of Chu was young. Qin Bosu was not valued by the princes of the Central Plains. If they know that there is no hope for supremacy. Concerted efforts to tout the celebration of the bogey. Fear...... The southern princes must have responded. ”

Tian Qi smiled coldly. Said proudly: "Wu Guo has always been barren. The national strength is difficult to support the repeated wars of the Wu State. Since the Qingji crusade against the Lu. and now swallows the Yue Kingdom. Sect Master Dongyi. Occupy Chu land in the west. Although they were all victorious. But what is the one thing that does not use soldiers and does not cost money? With the national strength of the state of Wu. It's long overdue. Today, Wu Shi arrived. The old man secretly saw it. The soldiers were indeed very shabby. Although the Wu people have the meaning of self-obscurity. Actually, it's not true. Their land is about to be emptied. What else do you want to dominate the world?

I heard that the State of Chu repeatedly asked the State of Wu for the land and property that Lu plundered. Wu Guo blindly shirked. only said that he was burned by his husband. I think...... The Wu people must have hidden the wealth of the Chu people. It was used for military expenses in successive wars. Hey! The joints in this Chu people may not be unexpected. It's just that they don't want to start another war with Wu State. This dumb man can't make it if he doesn't eat it. But that's it. The Chu people have no mustard for the Wu people.

This time, Wu helped Chu to get rid of Yin Fei Wuji. He also took the opportunity to cut off the territory east of Qianshan from the Chu State. Chu people's hearts were even more uncomfortable......"

Ji Chun said: "That's what I said. But the question of who is in charge of the world is involved. I am afraid that the Chu people know that they are unable to compete for the position of the overlord of the world. In the end, it is still necessary to turn to support Wu Guodi. ”

Tian Qi smiled. The old man said thoughtfully: "The Wu people came to the meeting so shabby. It has already shown the world that there is no intention of competing for hegemony. Again. The king of Chu was young. Still a half-old child. Not as calculating as adults. It's very easy to deal with. ”

Ji Chun said: "I heard." The state of Chu is now governed by Zixi. The Queen Mother supervises the country. The king of Chu has not yet been in power. It may not be possible to be the master. ”

Tian Qi smiled and said, "Woman." What do you know? That Meng Huan is also a figure among women. can take advantage of Fei Wuji to lead the troops outside. Decisive mutiny. Take back the royal power. and can not hesitate to cede the territory of the buried mountain. In exchange for the help of the Wu people. Cut off the cancer in the heart. Grab the bull by the horns. It can be called a woman.

But. After all, the woman was short-sighted. If she is truly wise. It's time to be arbitrary. Take over the power of the Chu State. Until the king of Chu grows up, he should not let a child interfere in state affairs at all. But she loves her son very much. I always hope that her son will become a big man as soon as possible. So important that the princes agreed on the alliance. I'm going to beat her son to throw her head away. thought that he could let his son show his head in front of the princes. This is a big miscalculation on her part.

Presumably before the king of Chu traveled. The Empress Dowager of Chu, Meng Huan, has already given thousands of instructions and instructions. How to do it, how to say it. All of them were taught to the King of Chu in one go. Hey! But children have one of the greatest benefits. That's what he hates. It will not be hidden in the heart; He loved it. Will definitely show it. And impulsive. Like nobody's business.

The Wu people took so many benefits from the Chu people. The king of Xiao Chu must hate Qing Ji deeply. The old man and Yan Hou went to visit together. Give this little guy enough face. Give him some more benefits. Whose side do you think he will be on? Ha ha. I'll tell you the truth. Today, the two countries of Chu and Lu are arguing. The old man has already sold the King of Chu a big face. How could this boy not know the truth of repaying kindness? As long as the princes are assembled. This king of Chu made a public promise as a prince along the way. That can never be changed. Since ancient times, there has been no joke. Even if you are Zhou Tianzi. Because of a joke. also want to seal out a Jin Kingdom. Could it be that the Empress Dowager Chu dared to use the young age of King Chu as a reason. Failed to take back the promise of the King of Chu? ”

Ji Chun said with a smile: "What Dr. Tian said is reasonable. ”

That's when it happened. The samurai in front shouted, "Who is ahead?" ”

With the sound. The carriage also stopped.

There was also a samurai on the other side who shouted and asked. Tian Qi lifted the sedan curtain. frowned and said, "What's the matter?" ”

At this time, the samurai of both sides have been reported. A samurai replied in a loud voice: "Doctor Qiyutian." On the opposite side is the king of Wu. ”

"Oh?" Tian Qi's eyes rolled. Hurriedly said: "Give way." His Royal Highness King Wu is invited to come over. ”

"No!" The samurai agreed. The carriage drove to the side of the road.

The car from the opposite side approached. When you get closer, stop. The car curtain was lifted. In the car, Qingji sat upright. smiled here and said, "It turned out to be Dr. Qi Guotian." Look up for a long time. ”

"Don't dare to mention it to the king." Ji Chun, who was next to Tian Qi, had already leaned up. I sat down against the back of my chair. Tian Qi arched his hand and smiled: "I don't know where the king is going?" ”

Qingji smiled and said, "It's rare to see such a snowy scene in Wu Kingdom. After heavy snowfall. Heaven and earth are vast. Everything is smashed. Nature is magnificent and ever-changing. The widow feels something. It is a night trip by car. Snow and moon watching. ”

The sky is full of stars tonight. There is just no moon. Qingji lied without blinking. Tian Qi's face did not change. Haha: "The king is really good Yaxing." Then the ministers will not disturb the king. Leave. ”

Qingji smiled. The car curtain is lowered. Keep going.

Ji Chun sat up. Hurriedly said: "Celebrate the night walk." It's not for some bullshit snow and moon appreciation. What is there to see about snow. The widow sees snow every day in Jicheng. My eyes are almost blind. He must be going to meet someone. ”

Tian Qi smiled: "That's nature." The princes are arriving in 6 continuities. Let's invite the princes of the world. The timing was just right. They did not have time to send envoys to each other beforehand to discuss the course of action. Naturally, we have to stay in Huangchi and then make contact. ”

Ji Chun's expression tightened: "Ke Qingji is going to meet with whom." What are you talking about? You're not saying. He has no intention of being the hegemon? ”

Tian Qi was about to answer. Then I heard the samurai outside the car shouting again, "Who is ahead?" ”

p: Written by Yueguan. I have never had the habit of saying hello in advance when I am about to finish writing. It's time for me to end. And that's it. But a friend reminds me. Don't say a word beforehand. It can't help but feel abrupt. It should have been told in advance. Guan Guan is as good as a stream. So after the day before yesterday a chapter had been completed. Fix it right away. A paragraph of p was added. However, friends who subscribed first may not see it. One more word here. This is coming to an end for birds.

As for the new ones to be written in the next book. Let's cross the stream. It's not that the full overhead can't be written. In fact, there is no need to consult a lot of information in the whole overhead. You don't need to do much history. Whether it's system, culture, language, clothing. Don't be obsessed with any of them. It doesn't matter which dynasty you can use what you want. Follow one's heart. There is no boxing at all. It's much easier to write. But I didn't write that kind of thing. Set against the backdrop of real history. At the time of creation. I myself feel like I'm walking through the antique historical paintings. That's how it feels. Because I like to create the unreal in the real. Changing history in history......
