Chapter 246: Huai Wang Luo: The widow is the benevolent king

Jinling.

The long convoy escorted a large number of treasures and the Wei king and the Wei nobles into the city gate, and then made their way to the Huai Palace. The people of Jinling City stood beside the road and pointed at the convoy. The King of Wei, who was sitting in a prisoner car, covered his face with his sleeves, and faced the pointing and pointing of those Huai civilians, ashamed and embarrassed.

As a citizen of Huaiguo, today can be regarded as an eye-opener, and I saw with my own eyes that the once high King Wei was paraded through the streets like a slave. King Huai Xuanwu destroyed the Zhou State and Korea that year, and did not use this humiliating method of parading in the streets to humiliate the Zhou clan and the King of Han.

Of course, this is also the reason why the personalities of the two Huai Kings are different.

Soon the convoy came to the front of the Huai Palace, a large number of treasures, and the nobles were sent directly into the palace, while those nobles and the King of Wei were taken outside the Qianyuan Palace. The nobles of Huai State sat in the main hall one by one.

After the last rectification, the nobles of Huai still have lingering palpitations. But I'm also curious about that King Wei. After a while, I saw that the king of Wei was stripped of his crown and crown, dressed in plain clothes, leading a sheep, and escorted to the main hall by the soldiers.

Sheep Ceremony.

This is the sheep ceremony used by the surrender of the deceased monarch since the Spring and Autumn Period. Of course, unlike the sheep ceremony of the Jingkang Revolution in the previous life, only the monarch has this treatment, and other scholars and officials have to wear mourning clothes. It is not naked in sheep's clothing, led like a sheep, it is humiliated for the sake of humiliation, not for the sake of surrender.

The surrender ceremony of the princes and countries is either a meat and a sheep, or a meat and jade is only a bare arm.

This is the first prince and king to be escorted since King Luo ascended the throne, so it is natural to have some etiquette. Of course, King Wei will not be the last.

The king of Wei was escorted to the top of the Taoist hall, and when he saw the high, solemn and majestic Huai Wang Luo, he immediately knelt on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "The little king meets the king of Huaiguo, and the little king is willing to confess the guilt of the little king, and also asks the king of Huai to forgive, and the king spares his life." ”

Sun Qian, who was next to him, stepped forward and asked loudly: "King Wei, you are captured in the city, if you surrender, how can you forgive?" ”

King Wei hurriedly kowtowed, and said in a trembling voice: "King Huai, Xiao Wang was originally going to surrender, but he was preempted by those people, King Huai, you have to believe me." ”

"Xiao Wang was a ghost at the beginning, and he should know that the Zhou family was destroyed, and the Huai Kingdom had obtained the mandate of heaven, and the Huai Kingdom was going to dominate the world and become the new Son of Heaven.

Xiao Wang did not respect the change of the mandate of heaven, and did not dedicate the Wei State to you as soon as possible, it is Xiao Wang's fault, you are a benevolent king, and you are the son of destiny favored by God, and please forgive Xiao Wang's sins and give Xiao Wang a chance to make amends, Xiao Wang is willing to follow your will for generations and dedicate everything to you. ”

In order to survive, King Wei has no bottom line, there is no so-called kingly spirit on his body, and the whole person is like a dog wagging his tail and begging for food.

Seeing King Wei behaving like this, the nobles of Huai couldn't help laughing. The Wei king, who had been a dignitary for hundreds of years, finally fell to such a point. It's sad and sad, but it's not pitiful.

These people have resources and knowledge far beyond ordinary people, but they don't use them, and it is normal for them to end up today. The fate of King Wei must be enough to warn future generations.

Immediately, Huai Wang Luo said: "What about the dignity of the bloodline, the Zhou family is the bloodline of King Wu, and the King of Wei has been prominent for hundreds of years, but what about now?" It can be seen that no matter how noble the bloodline is, it cannot withstand the disgrace of future generations. Ignorant of flexibility, indulgence and indulgence, even if it is as glorious as Bang Zhou's foundation, it will eventually disappear. ”

"The edict Taishi ordered the king of Wei to record all the beggars of today's kings to warn future generations that future generations are weak and not self-reliant, and today's Wei king is tomorrow's Huai king."

Hearing Huai Wang Luo's words, King Wei's face was even more embarrassed, this is murder! Not only to be humiliated on the main hall, but also to be recorded in the history books. But even so, King Wei didn't dare to be the slightest dissatisfied, and even breathed a sigh of relief, looking at King Huai's meaning, at least this life was saved.

Huai Wang Luo continued: "Destroying the country without extinction, this is the ancient etiquette, in the past, the Zhou room system was three ke, inheriting the descendants of the ancient holy kings, for their reproduction and sacrifice. The widow is a benevolent king, and he can't bear to worship the Wei country, and today the Wei country is destroyed, cut off the name of the king of Wei, keep the sacrifice of the Wei state, canonize you as the king of Wei, and seal the food of three hundred to sacrifice. ”

King Wei breathed a long sigh of relief, and then hurriedly bowed and said: "The ministers thank the king for his great kindness, your virtue is comparable to that of the ancient saint kings, and the descendants of the ministers and ministers will be loyal to you for the rest of their lives." ”

Hearing King Huai say that he was a benevolent king, the ministers of Huai in the hall lowered their heads one after another, not daring to speak.

Huai Wang Luo didn't want to give these people food, he was already a favor if he didn't kill these kings of the countries, and he actually gave the food a reward.

However, in order to reduce the will of the nations of Zhuxia to resist, these practices were necessary.

If Huai Wang Luo directly killed the King of Wei and did not let the descendants of the Wei State Mansion worship their ancestors, the resistance of the four kingdoms of Qin, Zhao, Yan and Qi would immediately increase by a few steps, and even if the Huai State could destroy these countries, it would inevitably pay a greater price.

If it can reduce the will of these countries to resist and reduce the difficulty of Huai's attack, Wang Luo is still willing to do superficial work.

After all, after all the vassal states have been destroyed, there will be no resistance in the world, and when the time comes, you can find an excuse to cancel all the food estates that have been divided into the countries, and when the time comes, what strength will the kings of the fallen countries who have destroyed the old countries have to resist?

The news that Huai attacked and destroyed Wei, retained the Wei sacrifices, and divided the food and euphemism soon spread throughout the country. This made the nobles of various countries secretly relieved. At least now it seems that if you can't stop surrendering, there is no worry about your life, and Luo Wang, the king of Huai, is also a benevolent king.

If Huai Wang Luo knew what these people were thinking, he would definitely laugh off his big teeth, the benevolent king? Soon you will see the mercy of King Huai.

After the strategy of destroying the countries and dominating the world was implemented, Wang Luo was thinking about the system after the Huai Kingdom. He did not intend to implement the feudal system of Bang Zhou, and he was even less willing to implement the tribal system of Xia Shang. If he pursued these two systems, why did he bother to destroy the nations?

In fact, there has long been a more appropriate system in the Huaiguo Guardhouse. Zijue left many books back then, including the system after the domination of the world. When the population was sparse, the transportation was inconvenient, and there were many Yidi, it was a good way to implement the sub-feudal system, which was the case in the Zhou Dynasty. However, after the population flourished and the transportation improved, after the armor was sharp, it was a bit inappropriate to divide the seal.

At this time, it was necessary to implement centralized power and adopt the county system. For the meritorious officials, they will no longer tear the soil and seal the country, but use food and eup. When Huai Wang Luo was studying in the storage room, after seeing the county system, he decided to wait for the unification of the world to implement the county system and no longer divide the feuds.
