Established a millennium family since King Wu defeated Zhou

Chapter 58 Chong'er ascends the throne, the iron curtain falls

When Gongzi Wu besieged Yicheng.

The son Chong'er has been staying in his fief, surrounded by some Qing clans who support him, as well as envoys from Qi and Luo.

These people are persuading him not to act rashly, because he is the only one among the five young masters who can keep his harvest in drought and flood, and it is not a good choice to go into muddy water.

Young Master Lin was the most anxious.

He has been pacing anxiously in the fief all the time, and couldn't help but say to the left and right retainers many times: "Gongzi Wu is so powerful in the country, and the princes are all on his side.

If he is too arrogant and directly kills Young Master Wuzhi, how will the situation be dealt with?
The two countries of Qi and Luo have another well-known edict from the former emperor, and they will definitely send troops for the son Chong'er at that time, what should I do? "

When the news came that Gongzi Wu had finally retreated from Yicheng, he was still unhappy.

He said to Zuo Zuo: "Young Master Wu's power is the greatest among my five brothers, he has not been able to win, is it possible that the throne of Young Master Wuzhi is so stable?

Young Master Wuzhi, the Qing family around him are all people who tampered with the last emperor's edict, can they sit in Yicheng majestically?

How can disloyal subjects rule the country?This is not correct!

The ancestors of the state of Jin would also be ashamed of this kind of thing.

My power is not as good as that of Gongzi Wu, so I can only use the power of Song to reveal the truth of the will.

Otherwise, the father will not be safe in heaven.

Zhongqing, I would also like to ask you to go as an envoy to the State of Song for me, and lend a troop to the Duke of Song to uncover the truth of the edict together.

If successful, Jin and Song can form an alliance, and Song Gong will get what he has always wanted.

Qi Qing, please go to Gongziwu's fief for me.

Said that I am willing to enter Yicheng with him to find out the truth of my father's will, but the son Wuzhi is our brother and should not kill him. "

The reason why Gong Zilin sent envoys to Song State to borrow troops was because his mother was a noble daughter of Song State.

Back then, Duke Huan of Qi sent Song Zhuanggong back to the middle school and helped him kill his uncle Kuangfu. Song State followed Qi State and got a lot of benefits and began to prosper.

It's just that after the death of Duke Zhuang of Song, the Song Kingdom never had a hero, so it began to decline again. In recent years, the politics of the country has not been clear, but thanks to the size of the Song Kingdom, it is still one of the few big countries in the Central Plains.

Luo Guo has always been on guard against Song Guo, because Song Guo's strength cannot be taken lightly, and there is a possibility of becoming bigger.

After Qi State's national power gradually declined, Song State also took back some of the two hundred miles of land cut off by Qi State, and also obtained some from Xuhuai's old land in the east.

Among the countries of Song, Chen, Zhengyan, there is a faint title of bully.

Song Guo has always supported Gong Zilin very strongly.

Because after Qi's hegemony declined, Song used to think that he was the second-in-command among the princes of the alliance.

But he didn't think about it either, Chu State was enfeoffed by King Su, and Qin State was enfeoffed by Duke Xuan, even the two Luo clans did not allow them to dominate.

A descendant of Yin and Shang in the Song Dynasty wants to dominate, isn't this a joke?
After Song Guo revealed this idea, Luo Guo greatly strengthened the surveillance of Song Guo.

The State of Song was really suffering. They hoped to support a Marquis of Jin with the blood of the State of Song, and then form an alliance with the State of Jin.

In this way, the huge pressure brought by Qi Luo and the two countries can be relieved.

So after Gong Zilin issued an invitation, the Song army readily agreed to Gong Zilin's request, and a large number of Song troops entered the territory of Jin through Nanyan.

The incident between Marquis Jin and Concubine Jin made the entire Nanyan Kingdom lose face among the Xia kingdoms, but the power gap between the two parties was too great, which made the monarchs and ministers of Nanyan Kingdom hold their breath.

Now that Song Guo wants to attack Jin, he is naturally happy to watch the excitement.

In the Kingdom of Jin, the two-year succession war between Young Master Wuzhi and Young Master Wu was a matter of concern to many countries.

This is another challenge from Xiaozong to Dazong. They are no strangers to Jin's traditional performing arts.

However, the army of the Song State entered the Jin State to interfere with the succession of the throne, which was explosive news for all countries!

Sending troops to escort a son from a foreign country back to the country to ascend the throne is nothing, it can even be called benevolence and righteousness.

Luo Guo escorted the son Xiaobai back to the country, and finally achieved hegemony.

Duke Huan of Qi escorted his son Fu Yi back to the country, so Song Guo joined him, and his strength was also improved.

But whether it is the son Xiaobai or the son Fuyi, they are all legal to return to the country.

Although it is actually for the benefit of the future, but to repay the kindness with profit, no one can find fault.

Song Guo this time?

Nakedly helping a son launch a rebellion against the monarch?

Armed interference with the monarchy of a normal vassal state without any reason, without a name, is even more excessive than a big country bullying the weak.

If this could be done, wouldn't it be possible for a big country like Jin, Qin, Qi and Chu to interfere wantonly in their country's affairs in the future?
When Luo Yan got the news, he was about to explode.

The initiator, there is no future?

It's not just your young master Lin who has a mother's family. Young master Yin can also borrow soldiers from Qin.

Young Master Chong'er, with the Qi and Luo countries as backup, did not do such a thing, and Song Guo as a backup, dared to be so arrogant.

I really don't know how to write dead words.

He hurriedly came to Luoguo Palace to meet his father.

"Father, son Lin asked Song for help, and Song's army entered Jin.

He has broken the bottom line of political struggles. Young Master Yin will definitely invite the army of Qin State to enter Jin State, and things will get out of hand! "

Luo State is now much more prepared for Qin State than it is for Chu State. This matter starts from the development of Qin State and Jin State for nearly a hundred years.

The fortune of the Qin State was when King Yi moved eastward, and Luo Xuangong sealed the Qin State in the western frontier, let them fight against the Rong people, and formed a confrontation with other powerful princes surnamed Ying.

Then, in order to prevent accidents, Twelve Linked Cities were built in Hangu Pass, which was originally a majestic pass where one man was in charge of the pass and ten thousand men could not open it. Luo Xuangong used this place as an enclave of the royal family and sent his confidant generals to guard here .

Later, the royal family was in chaos, and the state of Jin sent generals to guard it.

It can be said to be very cautious, and facts have proved that there is nothing wrong with being cautious.

The state of Qin really fought more and more bravely. Since the beginning of the troubles caused by the state of Qin, successive Qin kings have actually quelled the chaos in the land of Fenghao.

More than 100 years ago, Guan Zhong assisted Duke Huan of Qi to respect the king and fight against the barbarians, unite nine princes, and rule the world.

In particular, he led the princes of the Central Plains to defeat the Chu State in Yanling, causing the Chu State to be severely injured and unable to move northward.

After the state of Chu returned to the Hanjiang Plain, it faced the raids of the states of Shen and Ying, and fought bloody battles with the state of Wu in the east, and the country was exhausted.

So he hooked up with Qin, who was also rejected by the Central Plains, and even used Qin's army to attack Shen, which made Qin's already strong national power take off directly.

After marrying with the Chu State, with the help of the resources of the Hanjiang Plain, coupled with the geographical advantages of the Weihe Plain, the Qin State has now completely dominated the western frontier.

Even with the state of Jin guarding the Weihan passage, the state of Qin has always been eager to try, wanting to learn from the state of Chu and enter the Central Plains.

Didn't the royal family of Zhou establish Bangzhou's 500-year-old foundation through the two eastern expeditions of King Wu and King Su?
The Ying surname has been an aristocrat since ancient times, and its status was even higher than that of Bang Zhou during the Yin and Shang Dynasties. Who said that the destiny would not come to Qin?
Chu State and Qin State never imagined that during the honeymoon period between Zhou Chu and Luo Qin during the reign of King Yi, Luo State was thinking about parting ways.

After the Wang Ji Incident, Qin State and Chu State became the thorns in Luo Gong's eyes and flesh.

Because they are princes of different surnames who are not very obedient to the rule, and they all occupy terrain that is conducive to development, and they have great potential.

Among the other countries, the only prince with a different surname that can reassure Luo State is Qi State. After all, even during Lu Wujiu's reign, Qi State still maintained the tacit understanding of the Ji-Jiang alliance.

The development of the matter did not exceed Luo Guo's expectations. Chu Guo really coveted Jiuding and wanted to go north to the Central Plains.

The state of Luo had already set up a plan for him to come, and Yanling and the state of Qi joined forces to destroy the state of Chu, but the development of the state of Qin made Luo state more and more worried.

No one is more aware of the development potential of Fenghao Land than Luo Guo. It is really a fertile land that can rule the world.

40 years ago, the Western Zhou State was annexed by the Qin State. The news from the Qin State was that it was broken by the Rong people, and the Qin State had expelled the Rong people.

But then the Qin State rejected the royal family's attempt to restore the Western Zhou State. This did not conform to the tradition of survival and extinction, and it also confirmed from the side that the demise of the Western Zhou State was led by Qin State.

When the land of the Western Zhou State fell into the hands of Qin State, Luo State knew that Qin State was much more aggressive than Chu State.

However, the distance between Luo State and Qin State is so far away, it is unrealistic to suppress the development of Qin State in the western frontier.

Moreover, relying solely on the strength in Luo's hands, even if they can defeat Qin, the price they pay will not be less than the promised bloody battle.

What Luo State can rely on is the power of Jin State.

The state of Jin occupies all the main roads that the state of Qin wants to go east, and the most important ones are the Hangu Pass and the Xiaoshan Passage.

As long as this checkpoint is still in hand, Qin will be pinched.

The state of Jin can export to the state of Qin at will, and the state of Qin will suffer heavy casualties if it wants to counterattack.

Therefore, as the Qin State became stronger and stronger, a chaotic Jin State was no longer in line with the interests of the Luo State to balance the princes and ensure the safety of the royal family.

If there is no time to take care of the domestic turmoil in Jin, Qin suddenly goes east to occupy Hangu Pass, and then the soldiers directly block the Weihan Pass, then it is unknown how much blood will be shed to regain it.

Or because the son learned from his elder brother, son Lin, and introduced the Qin army in order to compete for the throne, and directly ceded the Weihan channel, it would be too late to regret.

The situation between Jin and Qin is too critical now, if you think about it for a moment, it may cause accidents.

"Father, the State of Luo must act immediately to intervene in the struggle for the position of the five sons of the State of Jin. This is what we have to do now.

Otherwise, if something happens and Qin gets the Weihan channel, things will get out of hand. "

Having received the same education and similar talents, how could Luo Ci not know Luo Yan's thoughts?
He sighed slightly: "Yan'er, you have to know that once the Luo Kingdom starts wantonly interfering with the monarchy of other countries, the Luo family's reputation will be in jeopardy."

The most precious thing about the Duke of Luo is the prestige it has cultivated over the past 500 years. Roughly interfering with the throne of other countries will ruin everything.

Of course Luo Yan understood, he was silent for a while, and said, "Father, why don't you follow the example of your ancestor Minggong?

After the big break, there will be a big stand. The state of Jin has been in chaos for more than a hundred years, and now is the time for a drastic transformation. "

"What happened to the ancestor Minggong?"

A hundred years ago, the State of Luo interfered with the succession of the throne of the State of Qi by assassinating Lu Wujiu, and supported Duke Huan of Qi, the overlord.

After Guan Zhong's death, Qi's national strength declined a little, but it lasted for more than 100 years.

Until now, it can be regarded as a first-class big country.

At the beginning, Luo State supported Qi State blatantly, but it interfered in the succession of the throne very covertly. Until now, no one knows that Lu Wujiu died in the hands of Luo State, and they all think that it was Doctor An Ning who killed him.

What Luo Yan meant was to quietly get rid of the young master's ignorance, so that the young master Chong'er could take over the position.

Luo Ci shook his head and said: "Duke Ming killed Lu Wujiu back then, it was because Lu Wujiu killed the king and rose to power, there were many people who refused to accept it.

Moreover, Lv Wujiu acted perversely in the country, all the people in Qi State were dissatisfied with him.

Duke Ming followed the trend, which made it so smooth.

But young master ignorance, although the position has twists and turns, it is legal and procedural after all, those high officials all support him, and young master ignorant, as a monarch, if he dies in a strange way, it is not a good thing. "

What Luo Ci said made sense, Luo Yan rubbed his head a little bit, and sighed: "Why does Jin State like internal fighting so much?"

After the passing of Guan Zhong, Qi's national power declined quickly. The reason why it can maintain its hegemony for decades is mainly because Jin, a traditional power in the Central Plains, has always focused its energy on internal struggles.

Luo State has always believed that Jin State is the most suitable country for hegemony.

The Weihan passage can restrain the princes in the west, and the roads leading to Zheng and Wei are flat. There are large plains suitable for farming in the country, and the population is large. With a little development, you can rule the lords.

But Jin's office seems to have focused all its talents on internal fighting.

200 years ago, during the period of Duke Xuan of Luo, apart from Yicheng, the state of Jin also had a center in Quwo.

Luo Xuangong did not sit back and watch Xiaozong's provocative actions against Dazong, and led the princes to actively intervene in the war between the big and small sects in Jin, dealt a heavy blow to Quwo's ​​misbehavior, and maintained the status of Jin Dazong. .

As a result, after the death of Duke Luoxuan, the Marquis of Jin in Yicheng made repeated moves. Now more than 100 years have passed, and the state of Jin has once again fallen into a quagmire, with frequent internal fighting.

Finally, the last Marquis of Jin has been stable for decades, but as a result, because he has no sons, he is fainted in his later years, and all the sons have supporters, and he is unwilling to submit to others.

After his death, the state of Jin started fighting among the five princes again.

The war between Gongzi Wuzhi and Gongzi Wu lasted for more than two years, and the winner has not yet been determined. It has already had a great impact on the national power of Jin. As a result, Gongzi Lin joined in again and brought Song Guo The situation of the army and the state of Jin suddenly became more complicated.

Once Young Master Yin brings Qin's army again, Chu will inevitably send troops, and the entire Central Plains may be in chaos due to a successor war.

That's why Luo Yan came up with such a radical plan, wanting to settle the affairs of Jin directly.

Luo Minggong's method couldn't be used, Luo Yan quickly thought of his ancestor Luo Xuangong, who supported Prince Yi at first, then abandoned Prince Yi, and supported Prince Fu instead.

"Father, since you can't imitate the stories of our ancestor Minggong, it is better to imitate the stories of our ancestor Xuangong.

Giving up on allowing son Chonger to ascend the throne, the original promise to the Marquis of Jin was to ensure the safety of son Chonger, not to let him ascend the throne.

Young Master Wuzhi has the edict of the Marquis of Jin, so he is the orthodox Marquis of Jin. He relies on the Qing family of the Jin State, and his political goal is to prosper the Jin State. This is also the goal we can strive for.

As long as the civil strife in Jin State is quickly quelled, we can concentrate our efforts to develop Jin State, and fight against Qin State, which wants to go east, and Chu State, which has gradually recovered its strength over the years. "

This is very similar to the current situation. At that time, the orthodox morality was transferred from Prince Yi to the prince's clothes, so Luo Xuangong chose the more orthodox prince's clothes, and finally realized the great situation of King Yi Zhongxing.

Now the Marquis of Jin's Yitong Sao operation is eye-catching, but it is undisputed that the orthodoxy of the Jin Kingdom's throne has been transferred from the son Chong'er to the son Wuzhi.

Then, as a defender of the patriarchal clan, it is very correct for Luo Guo to support the young master's ignorance, no one can find fault.

This idea of ​​Luo Yan has to be said to be very good. This is the benefit of having many ancestors and historical records. You are still racking your brains to figure out how to do this question, so I will copy the answer directly.

"good idea!"

Luo Ci also thought it was feasible, and said excitedly: "Yan'er, you immediately send people to the Jin Kingdom to ask Young Master Chong'er to speak out in support of Young Master Wuzhi, and to admit Young Master Wuzhi's throne, so that Young Master Wu and Young Master Lin will surely be in a dilemma.

In addition, people were sent to Luoyi to ask the emperor to issue an edict to confer the son Wuzhi, and let the royal family determine the title of the son Wuzhi.

At this time, the son Wuzhi can invite the troops of Luo and Qi to enter with the alliance between Luo and Jin and the honor of Marquis of Jin.

It doesn't matter whether it's a counter-rebellion or a military exercise between the two countries. "

In the later period of Duke Huan of Qi, the relationship between the Luo State and the Zhou royal family gradually recovered after a hundred years of not making an oath to Zhou.

Although Luo Guo no longer serves as a court official, all kinds of tributes have been restored. Now it is no problem for the emperor to confer ignorance on the son of Luo Guo.

In this way, the moral problem of Luo sending troops was resolved.

In fact, all the countries watching the excitement know that there must be some tricks in the young master's ignorant ascension to the throne, but it is impossible to forge the edict.

There are many such things, but no matter how confused, Marquis Jin was neither held hostage nor forced. He wrote the will, and that is what he meant.

Now that a solution has been found, the executive force of Luo State has always been very strong, and soon several groups of people headed towards Luoyi, Jin State, and Qi State.

Luo Yan squinted his eyes slightly, looking at the direction of Qin State in the west with obscurity in his eyes, and when the strength of Jin State recovered a bit, he would bring the Central Plains army to beat you.

The vassal states surnamed Ji are not something you can annex at will.

　There is still a coherent chapter below, I will change it again and post it in the afternoon.
