Chapter 613: Ask Uncle Qin to play the kite

Who are the Spring and Autumn Five?

Historically, there are many opinions on this.

One said that it was the Duke of Qi Huan, the Duke of Wen of Jin, the Duke of Qin Mu, the King of Chuzhuang, and the Duke of Song Xiang.

One said that it was the Duke of Qi Huan, the Duke of Jin Wen, the Duke of Qin Mu, the King of Chu Zhuang, and the Duke of Zheng Zhuang.

One said that it was the Duke of Qi Huan, the Duke of Wen of Jin, the Duke of Qin Mu, the King of Chu Zhuang, and the King of Wu.

There are also husbands and nephews, and the likes of Gou Jian are selected among them.

It is worth mentioning that the "Spring and Autumn Five Tyrants" are not five people who are completely equal in power and status.

Duke Huan of Qi and Duke Wen of Jin were the two most standard overlords in the Spring and Autumn Period, and they deserved their name, and they were known as "Qi Huan Jin Wen" in history.

Therefore, in Qingji's view, it is indisputable that the two were selected as the "Spring and Autumn Five Tyrants".

Although Qin and Chu were not respected by the Central Plains countries, Qin Mugong and King Chu Zhuang were very remarkable in terms of talent and merit, and they could not be buried.

King Wu Lu and King Yue Gou Jian are not bad for a while, but the problem is that Gou Jian's destruction of Wu can no longer be regarded as a struggle for hegemony in the Spring and Autumn Period, but a merger of the Warring States......

Throughout the Spring and Autumn Period, it was basically the Jin State surnamed Ji who exercised the royal road for Zhou Tianzi, and the Jin State maintained a century-long hegemony throughout the Spring and Autumn Period.

After the hegemony of Jin Wengong, he also experienced the continuation of Jin Xianggong's hegemony, the loss of Jin Jinggong's hegemony, and finally the Jin Mourning Gong's monopoly on the Central Plains.

Jin Wengong's great-grandson Jin Mourning Gong's political strategy is too outstanding, and his talent, achievements, and conduct are second to none, which is the highest peak of Jin hegemony.

However, the scale, influence, and achievements of the regional hegemony constructed by Zheng, Song, Qin, Wu, and Yue are difficult to compare with those of Qi Huan, Jin Wen, Jin Mourning, and Chu Zhuang.

Those who completed the major hegemony of the princes' alliance are: Duke Huan of Qi, Duke Wen of Jin, Duke Xiang of Jin, King of Chuzhuang, Duke Jing of Jin, Duke of Mourning of Jin, Duke Ding of Jin, Wang Fucha of Wu, King Goujian of Yue and many other princes, far exceeding the quota of the five hegemons.

Among them, the Jin State alone has dominated for a hundred years, and the alliance has been many times, almost monopolizing the quota of the five hegemons......

Therefore, after the Jin State is the Duke of Jin Wen, it is a well-deserved overlord of the world.

That huge gap in national strength cannot be made up by one or two wise monarchs.

Qingji is also lucky, born at the turn of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the great powers of Jin, Qi, Chu, and Qin have all declined one after another, and the monarch has declined.

Otherwise, Qingji may not be able to swallow the Chu State for the rest of his life and achieve the hegemony of the south.

At this time, Qing Ji glanced at Qin Boyingning, who was full of ambition, his eyes flickered brightly and darkly, and he didn't know what he was planning.

The state of Wu destroyed Yun and occupied the land of Shangyu, and the Qin people must have been extremely dissatisfied with this.

Because before this, whether it was Qin or Chu, in order to continue the covenant of the ancestors and unanimously resist the overlord Jin, they all used Yundi as a buffer zone.

However, the destruction of Chu by the State of Wu and the annexation of the State of Yun, how could it not make the Qin people angry and frightened?

It's just that at this alliance meeting, Ying Ning didn't say a word about the destruction of Wu Guoyun, as if she didn't care.

In Qingji's view, such a Ying Ning is either a mediocre and incompetent monarch, or a person who is very deep in the city and good at forbearance......

One song is over.

On the opposite stage, singers, dancers, and musicians all retreated.

Qingji suddenly looked at Yingning, who looked harmless to humans and animals not far away, and said slowly: "Uncle Qin, I heard that you are good at playing kites, I don't know if it is or not?"

Hearing this, Ying Ning smiled slightly and said, "The widow understands a little, understands a little. Zheng art is not exquisite......

"Uncle Qin, I don't know if the widow can have the honor to ask Uncle Qin to play a song for the widow?"

"This ......"

Ying Ning was stunned for a moment.

The minister of Qin who was sitting on the side didn't look very good.

Ying Ning is indeed good at playing the kite, but how can she easily play it for others?

If Ying Ning took the initiative to ask Ying, it would be just a matter of playing the zither for Qingji.

However, this is what Qingji took the initiative to request.

If Ying Ning plays the kite for Qingji, he will inevitably fall behind!

You know, Qingji and Yingning, one

One is the king of Wu and the other is the king of Qin, both of whom are the kings of a country and have the same status.

They are only allies, not vassals and suzerains.

"Hahahaha! Since Wu Hou invited him, then the widow will be ugly."

Ying Ning smiled awkwardly and did not refuse.

In the face of Qingji's aggressiveness, Ying Ning could only choose to tolerate and endure again and again.

After all, Wu is strong and Qin is weak, and there are many places where Qin State depends on Wu State.

How dare Ying Ning refuse?

"Zheng, Zheng, Zheng......"

After Ying Ning ordered someone to take a zheng, he sat upright on the stage, plucked the strings of the zheng, and tuned the syllables.

Zheng, Qin Leye, is the flow of the qin.

Gusse fifty strings, since the Yellow Emperor ordered the plain girl to drum the serpent, the emperor was sad, broken, from the back to the twenty-five strings.

The Qin people drummed, the brothers fought for it, and it was broken into two. The name of the zither began from here.

The Zheng is a musical instrument that is quite popular in the Qin Kingdom, hence the name "Qin Zheng".

At this time, Ying Ning plucked the strings of the zheng, closed her eyes, and a state of selflessness, beautiful notes and beats poured out from the strings.

Suddenly soft, suddenly heavy, suddenly sinister, suddenly delicate......

The clear overtones and lively rhythm are like a murmuring and a cold current. Clear and cold, the trickle of pine roots.

Listen quietly, and a feeling of pleasure arises spontaneously.

Such as high mountains and flowing water, if the sun is white and snowy.

Three days around the beam, the aftermath is endless!

Ying Ning's Zheng skills are quite outstanding, at least she can use the zither she plays, which attracts everyone to shake their heads and indulge in it.

Finally, the song is over.

Ying Ning ordered to take off the zither left and right, and then stepped forward to salute Qingji and said, "Wu Hou, it's ugly!"

"Hahahaha! Qin Bo's Zheng skills are really excellent, impeccable!"

Qing Ji smiled and said, "If it weren't for Uncle Qin being the king of a country, in the eyes of a widow, Uncle Qin would be a musician who is known all over the world and is like a teacher!"

Who is Shi Kuang?

Shi Kuang, known as the "Le Sheng", is the minister of the Jin Kingdom and the Jin Dynasty, Dazai, the court master of music, the founder of ancient Taijiquan, educator, thinker, and the first to put forward the "people, noble, and gentle".

He is good at divination and deduction, and is revered as the ancestor of fortune tellers.

He was born without eyes (one said to be blind to concentrate on practicing the piano), so he called himself a blind minister and a twilight minister......

Shi Kuang is erudite and talented, especially fine rhythm, good at playing the piano, and has strong sound discrimination.

Famous for "Shi Kuang's Cong" in later generations!

It is said that Shi Kuang can hear the sound of heaven, he is also proficient in the language of birds and beasts, when he strokes the qin, he can make the phoenix come to the ceremony, is the prototype of the wind ear in myths and legends.

His artistic attainments are extremely high, and the famous piano songs "Yang Chun" and "White Snow" are composed for him......

Now, Qingji compared Shi Kuang to Yingning, which made the ministers of the Qin State quite dissatisfied.

After all, even if Shi Kuang is a very prestigious figure, how can he be comparable to Ying Ning, who is the king of a country?

Isn't Qingji belittling Yingning?

Outrageous!
