Hearing that Kijiu planned to establish Lu Di as the monarch, Gao Zhang and Guoxia couldn't help but glance at each other, and there was a look of panic in their eyes.

Guoxia was busy admonishing: "Monarch, although the prince has the style of a monarch and is outstanding, but he is young in the end, and the lord is suspicious. ”

"Now my Qi country is in a big disaster, there is a strong Qing clan inside, and there is a threat from Wu State outside, if you set up a prince, the minister is afraid that he will fail the king's trust."

"I'm sorry for the ancestors of the Jiang family, and I'm sorry for the people of Qi Country!"

"Please think twice!"

The matter of pestle and mortar's pampering of Rui Ji and Lu Di's mother and son has long been known in the Qi Kingdom.

Rui Ji was born beautiful, so she was able to pamper the harem, and she was deeply favored by the Marquis of Qi in her later years.

In the case of loving the house and Wu, Pestle and Mortar attach great importance to Lu Di, and have always cultivated Pestle and Mortar as his heir.

Even in private, Pestle asked the ministers more than once whether he could appoint Lu Di as the prince.

However, without exception, they were dissuaded by the ministers.

Because Rui Ji came from a humble background, in addition to being unique in color and art, in the hearts of the ministers of Qi State, she does not have the virtues that a mother of the country should have, but she is serving the master in Israel, and it is always difficult to get into the hall of elegance.

"Guoxia, Gao Zhang, and the widow's last wish, can't you accept it?"

Pestle gritted his teeth, his mind was disordered, and he breathed a long sigh of relief, and said: "The widow can predict that in the short term of five years or the long of ten years, Wu Guo will definitely not fight at every turn. ”

"Although Qingji has the heart to destroy Qi. However, Wu Guo has been fighting recklessly for so many years, and it seems that he is happy to be jealous of this person, but it is not......"

Pestle looked like he had seen through Qingji, and said slowly: "Wu Guo's foreign wars for so many years have always been relaxed, and within a controllable range, it will not hurt Wu Guo's muscles and bones, so that Wu people can fight for many years, and they can also save savings, so that the country is rich and Li Shu is stable." ”

"Only this time it's different. After a series of wars, the treasury of Wu will inevitably be emptied, and what is waiting for Qingji to take over will be a Qin land full of holes and withered people's livelihood, and Wu's own losses will be extremely serious......"

"With Qingji, as well as the shrewdness of Ji Ran, Wen Chong, and Fan Li, how can you not see it? The state of Wu needs a period of recuperation and recuperation. ”

"At that time, the widow's Tu'er is bound to grow into a monarch who is in charge of his own affairs, leading the State of Qi to compete with the State of Wu. Maybe Wu Hou won't live for a few years. ”

"This ...... Why did the monarch say this? ”

Gao Zhang asked in surprise: "Wu Hou doesn't look like a short-lived life. ”

"Hmph, he has passed the age of not being confused, is he still short-lived?"

Pestle said meaningfully: "Qing Ji this person, the scheming is too heavy, the murderous spirit is too great, the luck is too good, these three things have taken away the heavenly opportunity, he will not live too long." ”

"The monarch is wise."

Gao Zhang and Guo Xia believed it.

Pestle and said: "After the widow, you should try your best to make friends with the Wu State, and at the same time devote yourself to restoring the national strength, persuade the farmers to make the situation calm, and ...... the other."

Pestle's eyes inevitably showed a hint of worry, and said: "Tian Qi has become a big trend, over the years, he has shown grace to the people, won the hearts of the people, in various places in the court, many doctors have old feelings with Tian Qi, the widow suspects that Tian Qi has a heart of disobedience, but has not found conclusive evidence, and a suitable reason to execute him." ”

"After you support Tu'er to succeed to the throne, you should strictly prevent Tian from seizing power and curb the Tian family."

"No!"

Regarding Pestle's advice, Gao Zhang and Guoxia could only agree with a wry smile.

Before his death, with his prestige, he might be able to suppress Tian Qi.

But, after the death of the pestle, who else can restrain the beggar?

Gao Zhang and Tian Qi both had a bad premonition in their hearts.

Because over the years, the power of the Tian clan has been increasing day by day.

Especially after Tian begged to worship the prime minister, from the doctor to the common people at the bottom, who has not received his favor?

For Tian beggars, kill, it is not easy to kill; Governance, but it can't be cured.

How is it good?

……

The time entered the twenty-second year of King Qingji of Wu, that is, in 492 BC, at the end of the eighth month of the lunar calendar.

The Marquis of Qi, who reigned for fifty-six years, finally passed away and died with hatred, nicknamed "Jing Gong".

What is surprising is that Qi Jinggong did not choose older, mature and stable sons such as Gongzi Yangsheng, Gongzi Shou, and Gongzi Ju as the successor, but let the ten-year-old son Lu Di be the Marquis of Qi......

Qi Jinggong: Is this an old lake?

As the ministers of Tuogu, Gao Zhang and Guoxia reluctantly accepted Qi Jinggong's will.

In order to prevent the princes from making trouble, the two of them moved them to the east to settle down and settle properly.

However, the princes of Qi were not willing to be imprisoned for a lifetime and fled one after another.

Qingji, who learned the news, couldn't help but sigh that the world is impermanent.

It stands to reason that Qi Jinggong still has two years to live, but he was tossed by Qingji, and Qi Jinggong, who was hit hard, still couldn't bear it.

What made Qingji even more speechless was that Qi Jinggong actually chose to let Lu Di succeed to the throne in this situation, couldn't he see the crisis of Qi at this time?

However, no matter which son becomes the Marquis of Qi, for Qingji, it is the same.

With the death of Qi Jinggong, the only people who can really be valued by Qingji and can be regarded as opponents are Zhao Ying and Ziluan, as for the others, they are just ordinary people and not worth mentioning.

Maybe Tian Qi is still one, after all, he is an ambitious person and quite talented.

However, Tian Qi is nothing more.

After all, Tian Qi may still be just a powerful minister, not the king of a country.

Identities are not equal!

"Great King, Qi Jinggong Lu Di is the Marquis of Qi and inherits the throne, I am afraid that it will lay the root of the destruction of the Qi country. The field beggars who make the wolf's ambition have an opportunity. ”

At this time, in the Zide Palace, Qingji was sitting opposite Fan Li, the imperial historian, playing chess with great interest.

In addition to playing chess, the two monarchs and ministers did not forget to talk about state affairs while drinking fragrant tea, which was very comfortable.

Speaking of what happened in the Qi Kingdom, Qingji just smiled and said, "No matter who is the heir of Qi Jinggong, Tian Qi holds the power, and even the Tian family represents Qi, it is inevitable. ”

In the original history, Tian Qi was just a Shangqing, who used a small bucket to collect taxes from the Qi people, and a big bucket to lend them when he lent them grain, and imposed yin virtues on them, but Qi Jinggong did not stop him.

Therefore, the Tian family has won the hearts of the Qi people, and the clan power is becoming stronger and stronger, and the Qi people are grateful to the Tian family.

That's it, Tian Qi also dared to unite with all the doctors of Qi to drive away the ministers of Tuogu, Guo Xia and Gao Zhang, and let Qi Yan's son move to Xiaodi, kill him in the tent, and expel Qi Yan's mother, Rui Ji......

Tian Qi also set up Gongzi Yangsheng, who was "mourning the Duke of Qi" and was good at Qi national politics.

With the help of Qingji, Tian Qi has been the prime minister of Qi for more than ten years, and he is extremely powerful, and it is not difficult to eradicate the forces of Guoxia and Gao Zhang.
