Since King Wu conquered the Zhou Dynasty and established the Great Zhou Dynasty, the national glory of the Zhou royal family has lasted for more than 500 years.

Prince Heng believes that the Zhou family is exhausted, and Wu Guo can completely replace him.

After all, Zhou Tianzi has been moved to Xianyang by Qingji to settle down, which is equivalent to house arrest.

Jiuding was also placed in the Taimiao of Wu State.

In terms of form, in terms of national strength, Qingji is fully capable of abolishing Zhou and becoming self-reliant and dominating the world.

Why didn't Qingji agree with Tian Heng's proposition and follow the trend?

This made Prince Heng puzzled.

Since King Zhou Ping moved eastward, the authority of the Son of Heaven has plummeted, the princes have fought for hegemony, and the hearts of the people have been scattered.

The hearts of the scholars in the world are no longer biased towards the Zhou family, but gradually return to Wu, or in other vassal states.

Such a weekly room has long existed in name only.

Regarding Prince Heng's confusion, Qingji just smiled and said, "Wu Heng, you still haven't understood Tian Heng's sinister intentions after all. ”

"And today, most of the people's hearts are indeed attributed to Wu Guo. My Great Wu also has absolute national strength, which can force the princes not to dare to act rashly. ”

"But, so what?"

After a pause, Qingji said again: "Tian Heng instigated the widow and wanted the widow to become the Son of Heaven, and Wu Guo replaced the Zhou family. On the surface, it is of great benefit to my Wu country, which can unify the world and subdue the four seas. ”

"It's just, Wu Heng, have you thought about it? The widow has become the nominal co-lord of the world, and the Wu State formally dominates the world, won't it become the second Zhou Chamber? ”

"If the widows are the co-lords of the world, and the princes are in peace, why should the widows send troops to fight against them? If the name is not right, the word is not good, and nothing can be done. ”

"Tian Heng is trying to stabilize the widow and stabilize the Wu Kingdom, probably thinking that he can survive the widow."

"That's one of them. Second, if from the perspective of the situation, Wu State will replace the Zhou Dynasty, and it will inevitably carry out a sub-feudal system, which will weaken the national strength of Great Wu and further make the countries gain power. ”

"What is the use of such a form of great unification?"

In the final analysis, it's not that Qingji doesn't want to further dominate the world.

Rather, like the third generation of the Xia Shang dynasty, it has never been a "great unification" in the true sense.

At least whether it is the Queen of Xia, the King of Shang, or the Prince of Zhou, they are all just "co-masters of the world", not supreme and incomparable monarchs.

The most obvious characteristic is that the vassals of my vassals are not my vassals.

In the early days, Zhou Tianzi could manage the princes, but he could not directly manage the princes' doctors.

This is not what Qingji wants to see.

……

The next day, Qingji was still in the Imperial Garden, accompanying Queen Ji Qi to enjoy the flowers.

Zheng Dan suddenly ran over excitedly and said to Qingji: "King, the concubine has just seen a lot of strange people. ”

"Who?"

"Their complexion is dark, and if you don't look closely, it's really hard to recognize, they're human."

"Adan, you're talking about black people."

"Negroes?"

Qingji suddenly remembered, didn't the Persians sacrifice their three hundred black slaves yesterday?

These black slaves are still very different from other Kunlun slaves.

After all, the Kunlun slaves of Wu are basically yellow people from the southeast.

And it is said that the blacks were captured by the Persians from the African continent.

As a tribute to the Persians, the black slaves were still stranded in the palace at this time, and Qingji did not arrange a place for them to go, so they were temporarily detained.

On a whim, accompanied by Queen Ji Qi, Zheng Dan, and a group of people from Gong'e Temple, he went to the place where the black slaves were imprisoned.

On a school field in Xianyang Palace, a group of black slaves stood together with some trepidation.

They have a dark complexion, black wavy or curly hair, dark eyes, and a broad, flattened nose, a trait that at first glance tells where they come from.

"King, I wonder what you are going to do with these slaves?"

CRRC asked Lingjiaoli.

Before Qingji could speak, the queen Ji Qi beside him said: "Rare things are expensive." We have never seen slaves of this color in China, and if the king sells them, they will definitely be sold for a good price. ”

Is this treating Qingji as a slave trader?

Qingji is a little ridiculous.

Having said that, isn't the biggest slave trader in the world right now Qingji?

Many years ago, the number of Kunlun slaves in Wu had exceeded one million.

There are no statistics yet, otherwise I really don't know how many Kunlun slaves there are in the territory of Wu, including men, women and children......

"Dirty is dirty, after all, if they grow tall and raise well, they must be good at coolies."

Zheng Dan said.

Qingji thought about it and said, "No need. The treasury is not short of money, and the widows do not look down on it. ”

"These 300 black slaves were all castrated."

“……”

For a while, everyone present suspected that something was wrong with their ears.

Castrated?

Emasculated these blacks?

What a hatred this must be!

No, no, no.

It should be an honor for these black slaves.

Queen Ji Qi asked puzzledly: "Does the king want to keep them in the palace and act as temple people?" ”

"Nope."

Qingji shook his head and said: "These black slaves, the widows want them to be made up with the Kunlun slaves to serve as labor for my Great Wu." ”

"This ...... The king, it's just a servitude, there's no need to castrate, right? ”

"Queen, you don't understand. These black slaves, if they are married to Kunlun slaves or my Wu women, the children they give birth to must be the same skin color as them, and I don't know how many generations it will take to change. ”

Qing Ji said: "Moreover, among them, there are many traitors and criminals, who are evil by nature, and are lazy and lazy, if they do beast things to the women in Kunlun, won't they reproduce their offspring?" ”

Isn't that a scourge?

Qingji is very aware of their inferior roots.

In general, blacks are generally tall.

Their ancestors had better genes, and they grew tall and mighty in the back, but because of the lack of food, they were not very healthy, just tall, but thin.

The black slaves in front of Qingji looked like bamboo poles, and they were as hungry as skin and bones, as if they would fall down when the wind blew.

As slaves, blacks were still very suitable subjects.

Over the millennia, countless empires have risen and fallen, but in the vast expanse of Africa, these natural black warriors have not built a single powerful empire......

Uncivility is one thing, geography, malnutrition, and lazy personalities are another.

In Qingji's planning, Kunlun Nu, who is the same skin color as the Chinese and slightly dark, or a white man from a foreign land, can also be assimilated by the Wu State.

But blacks, it may be difficult to explain.

For the sake of insurance, Qingji must not be tolerated, and there are black people breeding in the land of Wu.

Castrating them is the most straightforward way to do it.
