After Spring and Autumn

Chapter 175 Zhao Yang Changed His Name
In fact, the most fundamental reason for this turmoil is because the Zhao family in Handan and the Zhongxing family have gotten too close, and they have gradually lost control of Chaoyang. Dong Anyu, his retainer, proposed this strategy to him to get rid of the Zhao family. Zhao Wu.

After seeing Zhao Yang, the envoy of Zhibi said that the Zhongxing family and the Fan family had paid the price for their rebellion, but the root cause of this turmoil was still because of the Zhao family. If this is the case, Zhao Yang needs to give an explanation.

Naturally, this did not refer to starting a war, but wanted Zhao Yang to execute Dong Anyu, the culprit, but as the most important adviser around Zhao Yang, how could he be willing to do it?So there was some hesitation for a while.

Dong Anyu didn't care about it, talked with Zhao Yang, and committed suicide after returning home. This also made Zhao Yang very dissatisfied with Zhibi's aggressiveness, but the current situation is very unfavorable to him.

After thinking about it, Zhao Yang made a decision. From then on, he changed his name to Zhifu, intending to follow his father's example and start over from now on. At the same time, he voluntarily backed down and proposed that all the internal affairs of Jin should be handed over to Zhixuan.

And he, Zhao Yang, is the current Zhifu, and the only thing he does is to crusade against the remnants of the Zhonghang clan and the Fan clan. Go to court song.

Because Zhong Xingyin and Fan Jishe are here, although their strength has been greatly damaged, they still have the power to fight. If they are left alone, they will definitely counterattack the Jin State one day in the future, so Zhifu directly leads the troops to crusade against Chaoge.

However, Zhifu did not launch a fierce attack on Chaoge from the beginning, firstly to reduce casualties, and secondly to besiege the city and fight for aid.

At this time, Zhong Xingyin and Fan Jishe, who were still unwilling to give up, sent Qin Qin and Gao Qiang to lead troops to counterattack the state of Jin. At the same time, they asked for help from the state of Qi, and sent envoys to meet the tribal leader of Rong Di with a lot of money. .

I want to rely on these people to counterattack the Jin State again, so that they can restore their previous status.

It was at this time that the news came that Wang Zichao proclaimed himself emperor in Huaicheng, but no one paid attention to this matter at this time. Everyone was planning for their own interests, and the country of Lu was the most shaken.

Ji Sunsi immediately realized that Ji Chao suddenly appeared to proclaim himself emperor at this time, and he was so close to the State of Lu, he might be in trouble in the future, but the news he got later shocked him even more.

That is, the Ji Dynasty made Mengdi a marquis for his support and meritorious service, and established the Han Kingdom. At this moment, Mengdi transformed from a doctor of the Lu Kingdom into a Hanhou, and directly cut off a large piece of land from the Lu Kingdom.

If the news that the Ji Dynasty proclaimed the emperor did not cause much shock, but an extra vassal state was created out of thin air, which made Lu, Qi, and Song nervous, because their countries were close to Han.

At this time, there was also good news, that is, the Wu State in the south expressed its support for the Ji Dynasty, and the Chu State naturally spared no effort to deal with this disgusting northern vassal state, and the Yue State also expressed its surrender to the Ji Dynasty.

In an instant, two Zhou royal families appeared in the north and the south, but now Zhifu wanted to destroy Zhong Xingyin and Fan Jishe, and had no intention of withdrawing troops at all, and Qi was busy wooing other vassal states to fight against him state of jin.

Faced with this situation, Marquis Lu was so frightened that he fell ill and died within a short time. Afterwards, his son Ji Jiang would inherit the throne. Faced with such a chaotic situation, the new Marquis Lu seemed at a loss. .

Ji Sunsi also recovered from the panic at this time, and suggested to Luhou.

"Meng Di is ambitious and powerful. It is inconvenient for us to start a war with him at this time, so we should try our best to stop the war with them at this time, but Wang Zichao is the blood of King Zhou Jing after all."

"At the beginning, King Jing of Zhou was located in the prince's dynasty, and everyone in the world knew it, but now that the state of Jin is in such a state of chaos, we can no longer count on the state of Lu, and the state of Qi next to it is still eyeing it. The best way is to send envoys to Qi State."

"It is best to form an alliance with Qi and follow the attitude of a big country. This is the way for a small country to protect itself. At this time, we should not take the initiative to choose who to support, but it depends on the situation."

Lu Hou thought this was a good idea, so he immediately sent envoys to Qi State.

And Qi Guo finally reacted at this time, Qi Hou also had some headaches in the face of such a situation, he did not expect Meng Di to do such a big thing without making a sound.

If he attacked Han at this time, he would lose the opportunity to send troops to Jin, which was unacceptable to him.

Just when he was hesitating, Gao Zhang spoke after thinking for a while.

"My lord, at this time we should first find a way to seek hegemony. Only in this way can we order the vassal states in the world to support the Prince's Dynasty, or the current Zhou Tianzi. It is just a matter of the king's words."

This made Qi Hou very satisfied, he nodded and said.

"However, if we send troops to Jin, what will we do if Mengdi leads troops to attack?"

Hearing this question, Guoxia thought for a while and then said.

"At the beginning, Wang Zichao killed King Zhou Mourning, and was then defeated by troops sent by Jin. Under such circumstances, we temporarily do not recognize the status of Wang Zichao, but we can join forces with them to attack Jin. Presumably, Mengdi will agree. of."

At this time, a palace man hurried into the hall and reported.

"Report to Your Majesty, the envoy of Lu Kingdom has arrived outside the main hall and is waiting for His Majesty to summon you."

When Qihou heard this, joy appeared on his face. He stroked his beard and smiled triumphantly.

"It seems that the State of Lu has now realized that the situation is not good, so it is preparing to move closer to the State of Qi. In this way, as long as the matter of the State of Han is resolved, then our State of Qi will have no worries."

"However, who do you think is the best way to send someone to see Mengdi? The sooner this matter happens, the better. I can't wait any longer. I'm going to send troops to Jin. The waiting time for this day is really too long."

When Gao Zhang heard this, he spoke without thinking.

"Naturally, Tian Chang is the most suitable. The Tian family has always had a good relationship with Meng Di. Presumably, this time when he goes on an envoy, there will be good news. However, Wang Zichao is also the son of King Zhou Jing."

"Your Majesty still needs to follow the etiquette of the prince, go to meet him, and at the same time get acquainted with this Mengdi, see how strong Huaicheng is, and plan for the future, and Nanjucheng must also take precautions and timely Strengthen the city walls and train soldiers and horses."
