Spring and Autumn I Am King

Chapter 442: day by day

Ten years in the spring, Wang Zhengyue.

In the ninth year of ruling the state of Lu, Luhou Song, who had been dreading the state of Qi for a long time, finally ushered in the first great victory in his life.

In the war against Qi State, Lu State won a complete victory. It was not a small fight when Yang Hu was "in power", but the main force of Qi State was defeated. More than 10,000 people were either captured or killed, and they were all confessed to the west bank of Onoze. ! This is something that the Duke of Lu Xi, who is known as "Follow the Nanyi, don't follow; don't dare to promise, the Marquis of Lu is Ruo" can't do it!

Marquis Lu felt that he had won honor for his ancestors, and he did not have to be like his useless elder brother Lu Zhaogong, who ended his lordship career before he could do anything.

Although this victory was purely the achievement of Zhao Qing and his son Zhao Wuxi, the military officer of the Jin State, it did not prevent the Duke of Lu from taking this as one of his political achievements.

"Although Sanhuan had no guts and never moved his troops to Qi, but if I hadn't agreed with Xiao Zongbo's request to let Sima Zhong in Yangguan fight Qi and attract Guoxia to return to the country, Zhao's father and son would not have been able to win this battle. no."

After Zhao Wuxi tinkered with the so-called "Xilu joint defense", Luhou, like Sanhuan, was worried about the growing power of Zhao Wuxi, an outsider. After all, the two-hundred-year-old foreign invaders of the Qi Kingdom are much more hateful than the potential dangers inherent in them. In the atmosphere that the people of Lu in Qufu also want to congratulate each other when they meet each other, this matter is temporarily put aside. What Luhou cares about is how to report to the temple next, how to celebrate so as to keep the moment of victory forever.

After a big victory, there would naturally be sacrifices and celebrations, and Zhao Wuxi also cooperated very well, sending many officials from Qi and even a doctor from Donglai. However, Yang Sheng, the prince of Qi State that Lu Hou was looking forward to, was not among them, which made him slightly disappointed.

He was also disappointed by the news that the Ni Chen Yang Hu was "captured" by the Zhao family, but died of the epidemic. If he could not slaughter these officials in East City of Lu City, he would not be able to dispel the hatred of the Marquis of Lu and Sanhuan, and they would not be able to wash away the shame that they had been manipulated by this traitor for several years.

From winter to spring, when the time entered the tenth year of his rule, the long-suffering Marquis of Lu finally got the first satisfied great court meeting.

before dawn. First of all, the little Zongbo Confucius promulgated the etiquette. He led the officials to enter the palace gate one by one. In the Lu Palace, guards defending the palace were lined up, and various weapons were displayed. With flags and flags: Although many of them were borrowed from Sanhuan's family, there were even a few tall disciples of Confucius.

At this time, Confucius shouted: "Chorus." Then the officials and officials of His Royal Highness stood on both sides of the steps. There were dozens of people standing on each step. No one dared to mess with the order. Mutually. Specially responsible for up and down paging.

Then the chariot of the Marquis of Lu came out of the palace, and Confucius led the officials from Sanqing down to the next doctor and above to congratulate Luhou in turn. Da Situ Ji Sunsi, Da Sima Shu Sun Zhouqiu, Da Sikong Mengsun He Ji, all of them looked frightened and respected their lord. After the ministers saluted, they set out a feast according to strict etiquette. Those who were qualified to accompany the Marquis of Lu to sit on the top of the hall stood up one by one according to the level of the title and gave him a toast.

After the seven rounds of drinking, the audience came out with an order saying: "Stop." Which is slightly unethical. The few disciples in charge of the picket arranged by Confucius immediately went over to remind him. Therefore, from the beginning to the end of the entire court, no one dared to make a noise and be rude.

After the banquet was over, Luhou Song said with satisfaction: "I only know today that I am the lord of the lords." So he planned to promote Confucius, who made all this, to the rank of Grand Uncle and High Physician.

After Confucius served as the little Zongbo, an obvious improvement was that the monarchical power of Lu State had been strengthened. From the original puppet, he was gradually able to learn about political affairs. On the one hand, Sanhuan had to let go of some power after experiencing blows and declines;

But this time, San Huan quit.

Sanhuan never tires of Confucius' rhetoric about etiquette. He couldn't say it again, so he could only give up arrogance in the etiquette system, and let Lu Hou have a good Spring Festival meeting with a smiling face. However, in terms of real power, it is still firmly in control, no matter in the appointment of courtiers, the use of troops, and the treasury. Unless Sanhuan allows it, do not move lightly. So Marquis Lu had no choice but to give some gold instead.

Confucius resigned, but asked the Marquis of Lu to take the money saved from the treasury to Xilu for relief of typhoid fever.

"Although a lot of medicinal materials from the treasury have been sent there before, but I am afraid that it is not enough, it is better to have people use the medicine in the name of the emperor."

Yes, Lu Hou just remembered. When the lords and ministers of Lucheng, who had little contribution to the war, were spreading their congratulations, in order to defend the Qi people, they had built a strong wall and cleared the fields, and even the winter wheat had not been sown in time. Later, the towns of Xilu, which suffered many casualties, were in trouble. As for typhoid fever, I don't know if there are two or three people who have died today?

The reason why he and Sanhuan were no longer so worried about Zhao Wuxi was because it was expected that after the pandemic, Zhao's troops would be greatly reduced, and they were rather gloating about it. If it wasn't for the earnestness of Confucius' request, the Marquis of Lu would not be willing to give any help to that side.

For Confucius, the Marquis of Lu wanted to be rewarded but Sanhuan was unwilling. For Zhao Wuci, Marquis of Lu and Sanqing had no choice but to be rewarded! For his reward, Lu Hou thought about breaking his head, and San Huan also quarreled, but still could not come to a consensus.

If it is as usual, it is possible to be promoted to a doctor with such great achievements, and it is possible to change from a small Sikou to a big one, but Zhao Wuxi is too young, and secondly, it is his background that makes Lu Hou feel uneasy.

Fortunately, Zhao Wuxi, in the name of epidemic prevention, only let people congratulate him instead of coming in person, which avoided this embarrassment.

Before Lu Hou was glad that this matter could drag on for another month, Zhao Wuxi was not worried, and another big news broke out there. Just after the end of the court meeting, there was another person from Xilu. It was Doctor Xuju. He sued Zhao Wuxi for trespassing his powers, conspired with the Zhao clan of Jin to seize the city, humiliated him, and finally incited the people to expel him. !

...

The doctor expelled the doctor and occupied his territory by force. This was a very serious incident. The Marquis of Lu hurriedly summoned Sanhuan, Liu Xiaji, Confucius, and others to listen to Doctor Xuju's speech together.

"The whole story is like this. The son of Zhao, regardless of the fact that the sacrifice is not over yet, actually burned the minister's Wu Zhu alive..."

In order to win the sympathy of Marquis Lu, Doctor Saku deliberately did not change his clothes. Half of his fat and cumbersome **** had disappeared, his body was dirty and smelly, his expression was sad, and his hair bun seemed to have been scorched by fire. Although the weather is coming from winter to spring, the sun is shining today. He was like a gourd beaten by frost, crying with snot and tears.

The situation at that time was still in front of him, Zhao Wuxi took the torch from the lanky horseman and inserted it into the pyre. The ointment sprinkled to aid the combustion immediately caught fire. The twigs and the hay followed just a heartbeat apart. Small flames sprang from all over the pyre, like a swift red fox, sliding over the oil layer, jumping from the bark to the branches, and then onto the leaves.

"Come closer. See what happens to him!"

Dr. Xuju was grabbed by Zhao Wuxi's shirt, tightly against the burning pyre. He could feel a hot air rising from the fire and rushing towards him. At first, it was soft and abrupt because of the cold weather. But in the blink of an eye, it was unbearably hot, forcing his skin to scorch and sweat profusely.

The firewood was beeping, and the sound was getting louder and louder. His most trusted Yiwu was originally fashionable to maintain the mystery of the witches, and he began to sing in a high-pitched and sharp voice, cursing Zhao Wuxue, trying to cause everyone's unease. Yet the flames sometimes circled and twisted, chasing after each other, and the air seemed to be liquefied by the heat, shining in the twilight.

Yi Wu started screaming, weeping bitterly, and begging for mercy. In the end, the firewood burst, and the flames drowned him, and the voice that Dr. Xuju heard became a trembling howl, shrill and high-pitched. Full of pain!

He wanted to close his eyes and retreat, but Zhao Wuxi kicked his **** heavily and almost stumbled into the fire, full of anger and restraint, and put a sharp sword on his back: "Don't close your eyes, Watch him well. You were meant to die with him!"

Just for two insignificant subordinates, a few humble commoners, is it worth it?

Doctor Sugu's nose was filled with the smell of burning flesh, very much like the fried fish he ate when he was eating. .

For more than ten years, the majesty of the doctor has swept the floor overnight.

He deliberately skipped these things that were too embarrassing to mention, and focused on the insults Zhao Wuxi had treated him in the next few days.

"Zhao's son forced the servants to bury the two lowly military officials and soldiers who were sacrificed and sacrificed to the Lord. The weather was cold, but they asked me to walk ten miles barefoot, holding the coffin, and finally forced the servants to kneel. He apologized to their graves on the ground. Screaming, the ancestor of the lower minister was the son of the former king, Duke Wen, a nobleman of the state of Lu. After the king ascended the throne, he also personally gave the lower ministers a book. Please, Your Majesty and all your ministers, uphold justice for the lower ministers!"

After he finished speaking, he was in grief, fell to the ground and shivered, and Shusun Zhouqiu hurriedly put a fur coat on him.

"To humiliate the public so much?"

Lu Hou's sparse beard trembled. Although Zhao Wuxi had saved his life, he was still an outsider from the Jin state. Although Doctor Xuju was unbearable, he belonged to the Duke of Lu, and he was not yet. Out of five clothes, he naturally substituted his identity into the "encounter" of Doctor Suji.

"Xuju is also controlled by Zhao Wuxi now?" Ji Sun, Meng Sun, and Shusun looked at each other, and they were concerned about this.

"Of course, in the name of fighting the epidemic, Zhao Wuxi personally commanded 2,000 troops to descend under the city. In the next few days, he took over the defense of the city under the pretext of being a convenient doctor for Bian Que's treatment of typhoid fever. , and on the pretext that the epidemic has been brought under control, he convened a public meeting in the Haoshe ~lightnovelpub.net~ to expel the ministers!"

Confucius remained silent, thinking about the one-sided words of Doctor Xuju, compared with the Zhao Wuxi he knew, and only then did he frown and ask, "Expel?"

"Exactly, he incited public anger, but he didn't mention the monarch, the three ministers, and the etiquette of Lu!"

"Oh, what did he say?"

Doctor Suzaku looked terrified.

Zhao Wuxi's words were loud and loud, and the noise of the people seemed to reach the sky, still echoing in his ears.

"The Book of Documents says that the sky listens to the people, and the sky sees the people! Haotian loves the people so much, how could one person be allowed to do nothing to the people and go against the nature of the world? There must be no end! The lord of the impoverished people and the sacrifice of the gods of chaos, causing the people to despair, and there is no lord of the house and crops. Will it be used safely? What is the purpose of Fugo? Today, I will use the name of the small Sikou of the State of Lu to replace the sky, the king, and the general of the people. Expel!" (To be continued.)
