In this way, a few days passed peacefully, everything was like a dream, as if our life would always start with waves, and the waves would not last forever.

On this day, just after eating, a soldier came to the house in a panic and reported to the nameless: "Qi Yu National Teacher, the eldest son Taikang, and the second son Zhongkang have returned to the palace, please go to the palace to discuss countermeasures." ”

As soon as Nameless heard the news, he hurriedly ran in the direction of the palace, and as soon as he entered the palace, he knelt down to the two princes and said, "The ministers are late to save the car, and I hope the two princes will forgive me." ”

Taikang immediately got up and helped Nameless up, his eyes full of gratitude.

"Aiqing has worked hard recently, for our Great Xia country, hard work, made great contributions, here, on behalf of the subjects of the Great Xia Kingdom, I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to you, because it is currently in an extraordinary period, I hope that the national teacher can come out to preside over the overall situation, and the Great Xia Kingdom can ensure stability. All this is up to the national teacher. I wonder what the national teacher thinks of the current form? ”

Nameless slowly stood up and said: "Although the current form has improved, there are still many uncertain factors, the forces of Ji Kang and Yakang still exist, my idea is to cut off Ji Kang's forces first, and then concentrate on dealing with Yakang's forces." I don't know what the king thinks? In addition, in order to stabilize the situation more quickly, I advise the prince to immediately ascend the throne. ”

Taikang looked at Nameless in surprise: "Ascend the throne, it's too anxious!" It won't be roasted on the stove like the wind! ”

Nameless said firmly: "No, because you are the eldest son, only if you ascend the throne will it be in line with the current situation." ”

Taikang continued: "Then according to the national teacher, when is the most appropriate time to take the throne? ”

"The day after tomorrow is an auspicious day for the zodiac, and it is the best time to register, I have already set the next move, and the king can rest assured. Now Yang Zhai has become the safest fortress. This is my arrangement, please approve it to the new king. ”

After speaking, Nameless handed a book to Taikang, and Taikang turned out the book and roughly browsed it.

In a happy mood, he continued: "Everything will be done according to the meaning of the national teacher, and the enthronement ceremony will be held the day after tomorrow." ”

Two days passed in a blink of an eye, and early in the morning, Nameless was served by the two ladies and put on their court clothes, and walked towards the palace in an ox cart.

The weather was not as good as originally predicted, and after a while, it began to rain heavily, and it became heavier and heavier, and Nameless was extremely irritable at this time, and the heavy rain was a sign of bad omen.

He thought to himself, "Could it be that the Great Xia Kingdom is really going to perish at the hands of Taikang?" Could it be that the 5,000-year-old Huaxia Kingdom came to an end like this? No, never, if it ends, why would the Jade Emperor and the Demon Emperor quarrel over this? Won't Chinese civilization end because of this? ”

Nameless walked silently forward with questions.

Yang Zhai, the main hall of the palace.

With the sound of the music of the sacrifice to the sky, all the subjects came to watch the ceremony, because of the special period, this sacrifice should be said to be the most shabby one in history, no ministers participated, only Dongyi Wang Yi and the temporary formation of the pro-guard team to follow Taikang around, this arrangement effectively avoided the safety of the new king, so it can only be chosen.

Taikang knelt on the altar and read out the sacrificial words loudly: "Chengtian Chengxiang, the earth is good, the people are blessed, Taikang is not a son, adhering to the will of the king, inheriting the great unification, may God bless China, the blessing is relied on, special worship to the heavens, sacrifice to the ancestors, concentrate all efforts to strengthen the people, gather righteousness to strengthen the country, follow the will of heaven to prosper China, and inherit the fertile soil to prosper the country." Pray for a good day. ”

After worshipping, he walked into the Chengtian Hall surrounded by Yi and the guards, and walked straight towards the throne, and Nameless also walked into the Chengtian Hall at this time, and everyone immediately knelt on the ground and shouted: "Long live my king, long live, long live." ”

In this way, Taikang officially became the second generation of monarchs of the Xia Dynasty in Chinese history, (because Xia Yu did not claim to be the king, but belonged to the king of the Chinese Alliance, not the Xia Dynasty referred to, therefore, Taikang was the second generation of kings in the history of the Xia Dynasty.) ), still built in Yangzhai, the country name Xia, with Taikang as the year name, (the front Taikang is not the name of Taikang, because to avoid causing confusion in the reader's thinking, so the era name is used as their name.) This year is officially the first year of Taikang.

After the worship was completed, King Taikang announced the reward ceremony, and the nameless still maintained the original title, and was named the generalissimo of the protectorate, crusading against other rebel forces, Yi was named the poor king, staying in Yangzhai, maintaining the law and order of Yangzhai, consolidating the city defense, and guarding against the invasion of other rebel armies, and Han Xun was named the protector general. It is worth mentioning that Zhongkang was named the king of Xialiu, and Qingzhou, Yanzhou, and Jizhou were assigned to his name. Other generals were also rewarded.

After thanking him namelessly, he hurried back home, said goodbye to his wife, and rode to Jingzhou, where he divided the troops of Jingzhou City into two batches and incorporated them into the troops of Shanglong and Shangbao respectively.

At the same time, two troops were arranged to flank Ji Kang's troops, Ji Kang ignored the nameless strategy of flanking left and right, and pulled troops from the land of Shangyu to march to the royal city, and at the same time left two troops to block the advance of Shang Long and Shang Leopard troops respectively, and suddenly, the royal city was tightly besieged, Shang Long and his brother troops were blocked, and the situation was extremely urgent, and at this moment, Yakang also several princes and kings' troops were also ready to move, and quickly occupied part of the Xia Dynasty cities, and intervened when waiting for both sides to lose.

Nameless saw his mentality, so he led a 100-person personal guard to meet the king of the Youstill clan, and said to the king of the Youstill clan: "Today, you have a rough understanding, but you are too confused, although the current form is said to be beneficial to you, Yakang, the son, you should also know, belongs to a kind and ruthless person, his proposition is to take the Xia clan as the main body of the national people's system, once he becomes the queen, then, your fate can be predicted, no matter which side you help to help at present?" You will all offend the other sons, and the time will be bad for your tribe. ”

Nameless paused, took a sip of tea and continued.

"The current situation, the most promising thing is that Taikang wins, Ji Kang feels that he is very smart, but he blocked his way, in the face of the pressure from the three parties, he has no way to retreat, and perdition is necessary, and although you all support Yakang, but you lack a unified command, and the gap between the clans is becoming more and more obvious, don't you feel it?"

The king of the Youyi clan looked at the nameless: "What if I do what you say?" Defecting to Taikang? ”

Nameless thought for a moment and continued: "Recently, I heard that your clan and the descendants of the Youyu clan have a disagreement over the ownership of a city, I personally suggest that you might as well attack them, and then use them as bargaining chips to join the royal army, so that even if you join, it will be logical, and it will be of great significance for the development of your tribe in the future." ”

The king of the Youyi clan pondered for a while, thought for a while, and then said: "In this case, am I too cruel to Yakang, and I can't bear it!" In those days, Prince Yakang had great kindness to our people, and did not this trap us in injustice? ”

"There is no eternal enemy when making a choice, only the eternal interests are the real friends, yesterday's day can not be kept, tomorrow's day is what everyone wants to live, we must look forward to the future, we must face the future to make choices from the present, in order to truly start from the well-being of the whole people, the interests of the whole people."

You still nodded thoughtfully.

"The analysis of the national teacher is very good, tomorrow I will arrange a formal break with the prince of Yakang, and make our own choice for the prosperity of my clan."

"If you have any difficulties, come to me in time, and give me feedback in time if you need military support, I will do my best to support you. Together, we contribute our own strength to the destiny of the country. ”

The king of the Youstill clan said: "National teacher, rest assured, I am ready to use our own strength to complete this mission, and it is also a kind of self-consolation for the sins committed by the Xia Kingdom, Xiangguo is waiting for our good news!" ”

Then, the Youyi clan provided Nameless with the highest level of banquet, Nameless and the generals drank all night, and Nameless stayed in the Youyi clan for two days before leading the guards away.

However, the war was not as simple as predicted, with the fierce offensive of the royal city, most of the royal city guards were killed and wounded, and the royal city was in danger of being captured at any time, and the consequences were unimaginable, and the armies of Shang Long and Shang Leopard were also stuck behind.

Nameless was now at a loss, pacing back and forth in the barracks, and at this moment, a soldier ran in from outside, shouting: "There is still the Yu clan attacking the Yu clan, and there is still the Yu clan attacking the Yu clan." This good news immediately made the whole army boil.

At this moment, a sudden flash of "ah" flashed in Nameless's mind, and he immediately brought a few guards to the military camp of the Shen clan that was fighting against the Shang Long army.

The king of the Yan clan glared at Nameless angrily, and then immediately asked the soldiers to tie him up, and said, "Why do you treat Ji Kang Gongzi like this, your heart is too vicious!" If you want to kill him, it is all for the Xia royal family, so why do you need to kill him all? If you treat him like this, can King Taikang really last long? ”

Nameless didn't answer him directly, and then said, "I don't know how long the King of the Yan clan has known Ji Kang, and how much does he know about him?" Let me tell you a story, once upon a time there was an old man who had a big family business and had five sons, the eldest was very happy and did not do his job, the second was inactive and did not want to go in, the third was insidious and vicious, the fourth was a stranger, and the fifth was cruel and vicious. The elderly don't know what to do for the rest of their lives? I don't know who can make good use of this wealth, so I asked the five of them one by one, and the boss said, seal this wealth and take out a small amount of wealth to do something big. Such as hunting, etc. The second child said: "I will seal this wealth until I have no money, and I will use this wealth to do what I want." Lao Sandao: I will kill a few wives and concubines first, so as to avoid a big fight because of the uneven distribution of wealth. Lao Sidao: With this wealth, I will first use it to raise a group of people, and then let this group of people help me protect this property, and the fifth child is more direct and kills my mother and second mother together. Accompany you and avoid helping the other brothers to share the property. In the end, the old man gave no one the property, and after his death, several sons fought over the property one after another. and even fight each other, assassinating killers. If you were this old man, how would you choose? ”

The king of the Zhen clan thought for a moment: "This cannot be decided, because the sons are not capable enough to make good use of this property. ”

Nameless continued: "You thought the same as me at first, but this approach is the most unwise, the possession of property, not just whether it can be used well, and now it is more about reducing the probability and loss of bad things happening because of this property. Therefore, I think that only the eldest son is eligible to own this property, mainly from the following considerations:

One is right, because the probability of political risks and dangers caused by primogeniture is very low, both in terms of blood relations and status.

Second, if the other sons inherit this property, then the person who does not inherit the property will be dissatisfied, thus causing greater losses.

This is also the reason why we chose Prince Taikang as the new king, if you insist on going your own way, even if you occupy the royal city and obtain the great treasure, Yakang will also make Ji Kang face the same problem, and the final result will be that the country will consume its vitality, and the revitalized economy will be in ruins. When the time comes, the Beirong or barbarians can easily occupy the Xia Kingdom. I'm sure you don't want to see it. ”

Hearing this, the king of the Yan clan hurriedly asked the soldiers to loosen his bonds, and said: "The words of the national teacher have made my mouth open, but what will I do?" I'm already on the thief ship, and it's hard to get off the ship! ”

I am the first minister, and I have the right to sign treaties and agreements with all tribes, and in order to protect the interests of your tribes, I represent the Great Xia Kingdom to sign a long-term peace and good-neighborly agreement with the nobles.

On the one hand, it will provide you with a good way out after the war and protect the interests of your clan, and at the same time, you will set your clan's territory as a companion capital, so that you will be inferior to the status of the royal city.

2. At the same time, your tribe is exempt from paying taxes for fifty years, and except for the army, which belongs to the state, everything else is developed by your self-government.

When the king of the Shen clan heard this, he immediately said happily: "Thank you for the national teacher for the benefit of our clan, we will die without retribution, you are the best friend of our Chu clan." ”

After speaking, he immediately led his subordinates to bow to the nameless.

As a result, the nameless representative of the Xia King signed a detailed agreement with the king of the Shen clan, and after the completion of the war, the Yan tribe immediately withdrew its troops and turned the spearhead to another tribe that was fighting a decisive battle with the Shang Leopard army, and three armies against one army were wiped out in less than three days.

At this time, Ji Kang was still immersed in the joy of the throne, and was about to break through Yang Zhai, but he was happy a little early, and this day he launched an attack on the city gate again.

Suddenly three troops were inserted from behind, and they were surrounded, and immediately his face became stiff, and the whole army was already broken up at this time, and in his panic he immediately gathered his forces to break through, and finally broke through with a guard of less than two hundred men, and ran towards Yakang's camp.

Nameless did not enter the city, but took advantage of the victory to pursue, leading the soldiers towards Yakang's camp.

At this time, the royal city was already in chaos, Taikang had no hope for his future, he said to Dongyi Wang Yi: "You stay in the palace, I will go to comfort the lady of the Xia Tongguo Mansion, the national teacher has worked hard for my Xia Kingdom, and fought bloodily, how can I not ask about his family?" ”
