Spring and Autumn I Am King

PS: I made a mistake again. Qu Xia, the envoy of Wu who appeared once in the last chapter, was changed to Qu Wuji, sorry...

At the end of June, when Qu Wuji brought Zhuan Boyu, Yan Yan and others from the envoy to leave Xudi and Zhongwu, Ji Zha could only send them off. Baidu search to force literature network

Under Ji Zha's mediation, the turmoil that occurred here because of the lack of green and yellow has subsided, and in a few days, he will return to Yanling. Besides, he was too old to travel far, and Xu Di was the farthest destination he could go.

Forty years ago, when he was hired by Lu, he was invited to watch the music of Zhou, and listened to the odes of Shang, Zhou and Lu, as well as the great and small elegance and the style of the sixteen countries. During this period, every comment made the people of Lu who claimed to be knowledgeable ashamed. They all bowed down. When he passed Xu Guo, he hung Wu Zhongbao's sword on the pine and cypress beside Xu Zi's mausoleum for his unspoken faith.

When he passed the Zheng Kingdom, he met Zichan, who was in his prime, and the two hit it off. Ji Zha predicted that Zichan would govern the Zheng Kingdom and create a medium power. When he passed Qi, he also made friends with Yanzi, and suggested that Yanzi would take the initiative to hand over the fief and power. It was precisely because there was no city and no government that Yanzi survived the difficulties of Luan and Gao, and was not poisoned by Chen Wuyu.

As for him, when he was in the Jin Dynasty, he made friends with his uncle, and especially admired Zhao Wenzi, Han Xuanzi, and Wei Xianzi.

Ji Zha recalled his friendship with these people. Now they are all dead, the people are dead, the government is dead, the Yang Tong clan of the Jin State has been destroyed, and the six ministers are dictatorial, and I don't know when they will fight. Without Yan Zi in Qi, the power would fall into the hands of the Chen family. On the side of Zheng State, Uncle Zi, the successor of Zichan, also died, and the narrow-minded Siji is in power. It is said that he is embarrassing the famous Deng Xi recently.

"The world in the next few decades will be a season of broken rituals and music..."

Jiza from good times to bad times is full of pessimism. His nephew, King Wu, was not interested in the education of ritual and music. He was cruel in nature and wanted to fight for hegemony, but he did not care about virtue, but only knew how to fight hard. As Shen Baoxu said, such a state of Wu is like a snake and a giant. Even if it dominates and devours the world, if it does not have its own civilization and culture. How long can the dominance last?

He began to try hard to recall what he had told Uncle Xiang before leaving Jin. What did he say?

"By the way, I said to Yang Tongzi before I left the state of Jin. Uncle Xiang, you have to do your best to live! The ruler of the state of Jin is extravagant and mediocre, but there are many good ministers, and the imperial family is powerful. In the future, the power may fall to the three families of Zhao, Wei and Han. In your hands, you are upright. You must think carefully about how to avoid disaster!"

Now the goodbye words he sent to Yanyan were no longer worrying about the country, worrying about the people and prophecies in the past, but simply rambling.

"Yan, China's food and clothing are different from those of Wu Yue and Huai Yi. You may have become accustomed to wearing Gao Guanbo belts, shoes and clothes, and you have learned to be fluent in Cheng Zhou Yayin, but your spleen and stomach are still from Wu people. Eat some fish soup and rice clams, after crossing Huaisi, you won't be able to eat if you want!"

Looking at Yan Yanbei. Ji Zha seemed to see himself back then.

This is the urgent desire of some of Wu's scholar-bureaucrats to naturalize their mother "China", but in the eyes of the Central Plains people, they are already a barbarian state.

...

At the same time, Wu Xie also left Yuncheng and headed south to Taoqiu.

There are two roads from Xibi of Lu State to Taoqiu. One is the waterway. It goes out of the water gate of Yuncheng, gets on the boat from the small port, goes south along the west bank of Dayezawa, and enters Jishui at Juye Township. Going upstream, it only takes two or three days to arrive.

Water is the best way to go, but it's not safe.

After the spring of this year, Wu Xie let Zhang Mengtan rule in Yuncheng. Recruited Onozawa vagabonds, hoping to solve the problem of robbery with economic problems and reduce the scope of activities of the robbers. Although a lot of achievements have been made, there have been as many as 2,000 people. With the cooperation of overseas mathematics students and craftsmen, some pavilions and posts along the lake and rammed earth beacons with a height of several meters are also on the west bank of the lake. stand up. Foreshadowing Zhao Wuxi's rule here, the local people of Ting Township are often recruited for anti-theft training, and the thieves will only come and go.

But this only made the robbers not dare to send people to loot the newly cultivated land on the west bank after suffering a few times, and turned their targets to the cities and towns on the south bank and east bank of the lake.

On the other hand, Zhao Wuxi did not dare to go too deep into the lake by boat. As there is a local saying, the landlubber learns to swim, and it is not compared to the water scorpion. Although the sailors and soldiers in Yuncheng already knew a little about water, and practiced boat warfare day and night, you must know that Cao Cao of later generations also practiced sailors in Jingzhou for half a year before fighting the battle of Chibi. Touch, he even lost his bottom.

After the last time the strategy of separating Ji and Meng was successful, Zhao Wuxi no longer needed to support bandits. Although he wanted to completely wipe out the robbers, he was temporarily powerless.

Therefore, the division between the official and bandit forces was drawn within a mile of the lakeshore. This time, he could only travel with three or four hundred elite soldiers, and the elegant thing about entering the lake and watching the blue waves could only wait for next year.

The reason why Wu Xie took so many people on the trip was because the area south of Pushui, west of Onozawa and Jishui belonged to Wei in theory. Now Wei Guo is just reluctantly accepting Jin, and he does not know when he will betray. Wu Xie and Wei Hou's male ** in the Song country had a bad relationship with each other, and then attacked Zhencheng. He could not guarantee that the Wei people would not At the risk of the world's great impunity, attack him.

The area they passed through was called Punan, where Pushui and Jishui flowed, and Lei Ze and Lishan lived among them. Among them are Shengdou, Chengqiu and other towns, also known as "the field of Jixi". In history, because Duke Wen of Jin hated Wei from Chu, he was once assigned to Lu. After more than 100 years of changes, it has now become the territory of Wei. .

The last time Wu Xie was walking at night and day, he avoided the eyes and ears of these Weiyi and achieved the purpose of surprise attack on Zhencheng. In the blink of an eye, a year has passed, and he and his subordinates are no longer frightened exiles, and they have established a firm foothold in the country of Lu. Now that the Homecoming Corps has returned, they are flaunting their flags and strutting their way, all the knights holding their heads high, and all those with spears and halberds proud.

When passing by, Zhao Wuxi also followed the old rules and asked people to draw all the road maps in this area, and pointed to Chengqiu in the distance and said to the accompanying cronies: "Zigong's merchants have spread all over the northern countries. Especially in the Punan area of ​​Weiguo, it is all-pervasive. In addition, there are some dark sons who were cultivated locally in Zhencheng. They used the Weiguo accent to cover up their identities, and they have mixed into these small towns, spying and reporting news at any time. "

"Is Si Kou planning to defend the land of Punan?" Kan Zhi asked in a low voice.

Zhang Meng talked about governing the three cities, and Ran Qiu, Gong Xichi and others were upright and not deceitful. Therefore, when it comes to conspiracy, Wu Xie mostly negotiates with smart peers Kan Zhi, and often gets good feedback.

"If Marquis Wei is determined to stay in the Jin League, I will naturally not be able to move him. If he betrays Jin and joins the Qi League, then Lu State, as an ally of Jin State, will naturally launch a crusade. Sanyi is located in Xibi and bear the brunt of it. "

This is a high-sounding statement, but Kan Zhi just chuckled and said, "If you steal the door, you call it a slash. If your name is not right, your words will not go well, and if your words are not right, things will fail. It seems that these words of Confucius have been learned and used by Si Kou. already."

Wu Shi's face stiffened, but he just smiled and looked up at the silky autumn clouds in the sky.

This point of Kan Zhi made Wu Xie a little unhappy. His temperament is that he is arrogant and proud of his talents. The monarch and ministers can continue to chat and laugh, which is where he is inferior to Zhang Meng.

Wu Xie still has the capacity to accommodate people, but after expanding his power and territory, it would be good to find a Qianshi town for Kan Zhi to do practical things and sharpen his edges and corners.

...

Nearly two hundred miles away, they walked for four or five days. When they arrived at Taoqiu, it was already July, and it was cool in late summer and autumn. The main purpose of Wu Xie's trip, the envoys of Wu State, had just ended their visit to Song State and entered the border of Cao State.

Zigong walked ten miles out of the city to meet him. He was still handsome and elegant, but he had two short sagittal dark beards on his lips, which made him look more mature and capable. The clothes on his body are not like most merchants who show off their wealth like Song Zhuang Lu Zhuang, full of bright embroidery, but elegant silk deep clothes with excellent fabrics, but it highlights his taste and uniqueness.

As Zhao Wuxi has more and more subordinates and more and more sources, every time he meets, he has to introduce the people around him. Zigong refused many times Cao Bo's honor and appointment to him, and now he is still a white scholar.

Kan Zhi looked Zigong up and down, but he didn't see anything special about Zigong. Wu Xie's Confucian disciples Ran Qiu, Gong Xichi and others felt that they were inferior to him. Meng Tan admired it.

He is now one of the most respected retainers around Zhao Wuxi. This time, he has a chance, and he has a teenage heart attack. He wants to compete with Zigong for the second spot.

So he saw Wu Xie talking to Tao Gu and the others next to him. When he didn't look here, he saluted Zigong again: "I've heard the name of Zigong for a long time. I only hope that your talents can live up to Kan Zhi's expectations."

After Kan Zhi finished speaking, his eyebrows were raised, and his words were a little rushed, but Zi Gong was not sullen, but just returned the salute lightly. When Wu Xie invited him to go with the car, he whispered something to Wu Xie, telling Kan Zhi behind him to think that he was suing him, and he felt a little disdain in his heart.

"As expected of a businessman!"

In fact, what happened just now, Zigong didn't take it to heart at all. What he said to Wuxi was: "Si Kou, the people from the Jin country have already settled properly..."

No shirt clear ~www.wuxiahere.com~ nods in praise.

The people who came from the state of Jin naturally followed Zhao's merchants and transported a batch of white "Cheng Porcelain" and "Xia Gong Porcelain" to Taoqiu, the girl Bo Mi, that is, the maid Wei who Wu Xie rescued in Chengxiang. .

Wu Xie's letter didn't make it clear, but Ji Ying could see at a glance what he had left unfinished.

For Ji Ying's decision, Zhao Wuxi was greatly relieved. With Bo Mi by his side, the friendship with Qu Wuji, a traveler from Wu State, would be a little more rewarding.

Because if you want to figure it out, if Wu Xie promises to give Bo Mi a name, he will have a substantial relationship with the Qu family of the Wu Kingdom.

Of course, he himself has some expectations, that beautiful girl like a small white flower will occasionally fall into a dream. I haven't seen each other for two years, I wonder if she will be like her ancestor Xia Ji, her face will remain the same... (To be continued.) WWW.GEILIWX.COM Happy reading every day
