410 Echeng undercurrent

Huaiqing shook his gray beard and said, "Can that be the same? Mrs. Jiang is the prince of the world, but this is to make my nephew the son, can I do that? What do you think of me? What do my people think of me?"

Mrs. Yi let out a long sigh, "Then what should I do? Is it true that the throne of the prince of the kingdom of Hubei will be suspended forever?"

She was a little disheartened. Since the Battle of Tonglu Mountain, in order to win the position of the son of the world, she has exhausted all the means she should use. sent assassins to hunt down the newly emerging Shizi Kun, wooed the ministers of the clan everywhere, and spared no effort to consolidate his brother's position...... But no matter how hard she tried, every time she reached the most critical last step, she always fell short.

Mrs. Yi strongly felt that in this Echeng, there seemed to be another very powerful force working against her in the shadows. It is this power in the shadows that is protecting the son Kun, who has not been heard from from him, and blocking his son's broad road to the heir. But what kind of force is this? Who is in control? She didn't know anything.

"Girl, don't be too anxious. Your Majesty is only holding it back, and things will take a turn for the better." Maybe it was because he saw that her face was not good, but Huaiqing still comforted her distressedly.

"Check!" Mrs. Yi angrily slapped the case, which startled Huaiqing: "What are you investigating?"

"Check the whereabouts of the Kun, start with the palace maid named Shuyu, why did the salt merchant save her? Is there anyone behind this salt merchant named Yi Gong? You'll have to find out."

"This ......" Huai Qing had an embarrassed look on his face, but he looked at the girl's lips biting her bruise, knowing that she couldn't disobey it, so she gritted her teeth and told the truth: "Sister, in fact, that Yi Gong is really a disciple of the Nanlin Society, who is in charge of the trade route. The people behind him, everyone in the world knows......

Madame Yi was not very surprised: "Brother, don't worry, I am not interested in exploring your shady things. Isn't it just that someone has taken the handle? Although I am in the deep palace and it is inconvenient to act, I still know some news from the outside. Nanlin Society, isn't it the Yi Society of the year? Originally, the basic organization was based on my people, but it was raised by that Rongyi as an eagle dog of the Zhou royal family, and it was tolerable to oppose me everywhere!"

"What do you want to do, girl?" Huaiqing was horrified: "Could it be that you want to go against the Zhou royal family? That...... But an egg strikes a stone! Don't be impulsive!"

"Don't worry, your sister isn't that stupid!" Madam Yi smiled coldly: "The king's anti-Zhou heart is not limited to one day, if he learns that the Zhou royal family secretly supports the missing prince Kun, what do you think he will think?" Hum! It's just that...... If you want your heart to be firm, you have to show me the power to destroy people!"

"What do you mean by that?" Huaiqing was puzzled.

"Didn't my brother say that the last time I returned to the Yi Tribe, the clansmen had been dissatisfied with the rule of the Zhou royal family for a long time? Why don't we take advantage of the trend?" Mrs. Yi said as she approached and muttered to Huaiqing in a low voice for a while......

It was late at night, and the old man was about to sleep peacefully, when the old servant came in and said, "Lord's house, there is a guest visiting."

The old man didn't even nod his head, but only replied, "I don't see it, and I don't accept gifts."

"But......," the old servant seemed to stop talking. After all, the whole ox cart of cattle, mutton and venison is marinated, which is enough for this big family to spend the winter!

"You only want to say one thing, the words of the old decrepit chamber are only for the sake of the country, not for financial gain."

"No!" The old servant shook his head helplessly, and finally left.

Outside the rough half-walled courtyard, Yi Gong listened to the old servant's words, and finally let out a long breath helplessly, and bowed deeply to the old servant: "The righteousness of the divination master, Yi Gong is unforgettable. If he finds something useful someday, tell the old gentleman what he says."

According to Ji Hu's original plan, he would not set off for Luoyi until the end of autumn and October, when the autumn harvest was largely over. However, a secret military report from the Eighth Division of Cheng Zhou made him have to leave early.

"Great King, General Cheng Zhou Yuzhong has reported secretly: The Huaiyi tribe is about to move recently, and there seem to be signs of rebellion. General Yu asked the king for orders, and the whole army was dispatched to destroy Huaiyi in one fell swoop, and eliminate this hidden danger in the Central Plains!"

After listening to Rui Liangfu's report, Ji Hu, who was having a small court meeting with important ministers in the side hall, was shocked, and subconsciously glanced at Zhao Bohu behind the case. The latter shook his hand and said, "Huaiyi and the Eguo are in the same breath

, there must be a hidden secret in such stupidity. We have to agree on countermeasures, and if we don't send troops, we will eradicate the troubles."

Ji Hu Huoran got up: "Let's go! Go to the East Wing Hall immediately and discuss!"

The contradictions and struggles between the Huaiyi Dongyi tribe and the Central Plains ethnic groups have a long history.

At that time, Ji Chang, the king of Zhou Wen, proclaimed himself king in his later years and openly rebelled against the Shang Dynasty, and the reason why Shang did not send troops to quell the rebellion was because of Dongyi's containment. King Wu Ji sent "Mengjin Guan Soldiers", and they were all about to hit the doorstep, but the king of Shang Xuan transferred troops to attack Dongyi, and did not focus on defending the Zhou people, what is the reason?

Two years later, King Wu of Zhou once again attacked the merchants, but the city was empty, and the king could only organize slaves and prisoners of war, and was finally defeated by King Wu of Zhou in one fell swoop. According to the oracle bone inscriptions, the general trend of the world during the Shang Dynasty, just like the end of the Ming Dynasty in history, the Yin Shang faced a two-front threat, and King Wu of Zhou seized the golden opportunity to destroy the Shang Dynasty.

The reason why the Zhou people dared to claim the king and rebel was that the Shang Dynasty was facing a powerful enemy, Dongyi.

Dongyi has a long history and strong strength, which led to the loss of Taikang in the Xia Dynasty, Houyi, Hanxun, is said to be the leader of the Dongyi Tribal Alliance. Therefore, Yin Shang and Dongyi are two forces with different origins. In the early days of the Yin Shang Dynasty, for the powerful Dongyi tribe, a policy of appeasement was adopted. Even if there were occasional conquests, they were not large, and most of the tribes were subservient.

In the period of Shang King Wuyi, the Dongyi ethnic group became stronger and stronger, especially the Yifang country in the Huai River Valley. During the Shang period, Dongyi rebelled under the leadership of the Yifang State, and a large-scale war broke out between the Yin Shang and the Yifang. In this war, the king of Zhou once came to the front line to supervise the war, and the Shang Dynasty exhausted its national strength and greatly reduced its strength.

It can also be said that Dongyi was a bottomless pit, and the Shangyi War lasted for many years, exhausting the national strength of the Shang Dynasty. Therefore, the "Zuo Chuan" concluded that "the Emperor fell to the east." Although the Shang Shang won many victories in the long and fierce Shang war, it still had a profound impact on the situation at the end of the Shang dynasty.

First of all, the reckless attack on Dongyi by the Emperor of Sui will inevitably damage the interests of the vassal states, the nobles and commoners of the Yin Shang Dynasty, and then lead to countless people opposing the Emperor of Zhou, which is just like the later Emperor Yang of Sui attacking Goguryeo at any cost, which will inevitably lead to a domestic overturn.
