A knife in love

Chapter 2022
When Li Qiufeng heard that Feng Wei turned his attention to Shen Sheng and Chong Er again, he couldn't help crying and laughing. He thought to himself whether this old Mr. Feng was confused, or his reading was extremely pedantic.Originally, I just wanted to tell about his origin, but after talking about it for several hours, I still don't know how he got to Dongliao County.If we go on like this, I'm afraid our beards and hair will all turn gray, and we still don't know what he wants to say.Just now Miss Wang teased him that he might as well go to the teahouse in Dongliao County to sit and tell a book. I was annoyed that Miss Wang didn't know the severity of what she said, it was too hurtful, but after listening to him for a long time, this old Mr. Feng is really a storyteller elegant demeanor.If you go to a wine shop and teahouse to talk about it for a while, you might be able to earn a few bucks.

When Li Qiufeng was thinking about it, he only heard Feng Wei continue to say: "Zhai is the hometown of Chong'er's birth mother, so the king accepted Chong'er and his cronies. Duke Xiang of Jin still thought about the benefits of the dead queen, but he didn't feel embarrassed. Zhai State. A few years later, Jin Xiangong died of illness, and Li Ji pushed her son Xi Qi to the throne. However, the ministers of the Jin State have long been dissatisfied with Li Ji, but because Jin Xiangong dotes on her, they have to be vain When Jin Xiangong died, these ministers had no scruples, and even assassinated Xi Qi in front of Jin Xiangong's spirit, and beat Li Ji to death with a whip..."

Before Feng Wei finished speaking, Wang Xiaoyu laughed and clapped his hands and said: "Okay, good death! This fox spirit killed the prince and forced the son Chong'er to escape, he really deserves to die! It seems that the ministers of the Jin Kingdom are kind, not Some idiots."

Feng Wei ignored her and said to himself: "After killing Li Ji and Xi Qi, the ministers of the state of Jin discussed who should be the king of the state of Jin. All the ministers said that the crown prince Shen Sheng was dead, Among the seven princes, Chong'er is the most virtuous, and he should be invited back to be the king. The minister in charge, Rick, sent an envoy to Zhai to welcome Chong'er back to Jin to be the king. Chong'er heard that the ministers supported him, and he was heartbroken. Overjoyed, he was about to agree to return to the state of Jin to succeed him, but his cronies signaled with their eyes that he should not agree. Chonger was puzzled, so he dismissed the envoy with an excuse, and then asked his cronies why he refused to agree to go back to the country to do it. Monarch. Those cronies told him that although the ministers of the Jin State killed Li Ji and Xi Qi, although it was to eliminate harm for the country, it was after all an offense against the superior. It was quite inappropriate in terms of morality, and I was afraid that it would be harmful to the lord's reputation. Moreover, Li Ji has been operating in the state of Jin for many years, and her power is not weak. If the lord returns to the state of Jin rashly, it can be said that he is walking on thin ice, and there are enemies everywhere. In addition, the lord and the son Yiwu escaped from the state of Jin, and the few princes who stayed in the state of Jin must also I want to succeed to the throne and become the king. They have been cultivating power in the state of Jin all these years. How can they be compared to the lord who fled abroad? If the lord returns to be the king at this time, he will only become the target of public criticism, and the end will not be much better than that of Xi Qi. It is better to stay for a while. In the country of Zhai, wait and see the situation before making a decision.

"Although Chong'er has some regrets in his heart, these cronies under his command are all people who seek the country, and they are all extremely powerful. Chong'er can't help but listen to their persuasion. Therefore, Chong'er summoned the envoy again, and said while crying, "I violated the law." Your father ordered you to escape from the state of Jin. After your father passed away, you couldn’t serve the funeral as a son or minister. How dare you return to the country to be the king? Please return to the state of Jin, and all ministers please appoint another brother.

"The envoy had no choice but to return to the state of Jin, and told Rick and other ministers what Chong'er had said. The ministers believed that Chong'er was a virtuous son, but he refused to return to the country, and the seat of the monarch must not be left vacant. Yes. The ministers discussed again and decided to send someone to welcome Yiwu, the son who had fled to Qin, as the king.

"Yiwu was in Qin State when he heard that Jin Xiangong died of illness. The ministers killed Yan Xiqi in front of Xian Gong's spirit, and beat Li Ji to death with a whip. He was surprised and happy, and was thinking about how to return to Jin State to be the king. It's just that he and his cronies all know that Chong'er has a good reputation, and those ministers will definitely support Chong'er as the successor, so they are a little depressed. Unexpectedly, one day, the ministers of Jin State sent envoys to welcome him back to Jin How can such a good thing not make Yiwu ecstatic when the country succeeds to the throne?
"However, after the ecstasy, Yiwu's cronies told him that Rick and other ministers killed Xi Qi and Li Ji, and instead of welcoming Chong'er back as king, they did not support the son who stayed in the country to succeed. Instead, they sent people to Qin to welcome the lord. I am afraid that these ministers are dishonest. If they return to the state of Jin in this way, once the situation changes, the lord will definitely be harmed. You must think of a comprehensive method before you can return to the state of Jin to be the king with confidence.

"At that time, Yiwu was determined to return to the country to succeed the throne, and he didn't care about other things. So after hearing what his cronies said, he asked him what he should do to ensure that he returned to the country to succeed the throne safely. Those cronies said to him After the lord escaped from the state of Jin, he has been living in the state of Qin. With the backing of the state of Qin, those ministers and princes in the state of Jin must not dare to do anything to the lord. It is better to cede the land of Hexi in the state of Jin to the state of Qin, which can be repaid The kindness of Qin's protection of the lord these years can also be exchanged for Qin's support for the lord.

"Yiwu heard that he was going to cede the land to Qin, but he was a little hesitant in his heart. The cronies saw that Yiwu was greedy, so he continued to persuade him. If there is no support from Qin, I am afraid that after the lord returns to the country and becomes the king, the other sons will not be convinced. Colluding with the courtiers to cause chaos, the lord will definitely end up in the same fate as Xi Qi. At that time, Yiwu only wanted to be the king of Jin. As for the matter of ceding the land, although it is a bit painful, it is nothing compared to being a king. Big deal. So he gritted his teeth and agreed to cede the land of Hexi to Qin.

"Those confidantes said to Yiwu again that the minister of the Jin State killed Xi Qi and Li Ji, and the person in charge was Rick. This person is extremely powerful, and if he wants to secure the position of the monarch, he must give Rick a big reward. Please also The lord rewarded Rick with the city of Fenyang, and he would definitely support the lord with all his brains. In this way, even if the sons and court officials who stayed in Jin were not convinced, they would not dare to have other plans under Rick's suppression.

"Yiwu is determined to be the king of the country, and he has no objection to this. Therefore, he brought his cronies and returned to the state of Jin with the envoys. He was supported by the officials as the new king of the state of Jin, and he was Duke Hui of Jin. But this boy Greedy by nature, after becoming a king, he was reluctant to cede the land of Hexi to Qin State, and since then there has been a rift with Qin State. Moreover, he also pretended not to know about the fact that he promised to grant Rick the city of Fenyang, and would offend his predecessors. His ministers, Father Pizheng and Doctor Qiyu, were killed. From then on, the ministers and people of the Jin State all pointed at Jin Huigong secretly, calling him a villain who crossed rivers and demolished bridges and did not keep his word.

"After Jin Huigong became the king, he was so complacent that he drank and had fun every day, indulging in beauty. The ministers of the court and the common people were extremely dissatisfied with him, and the state of Qin was also very angry at him for not keeping promises. Jin Huigong's cronies Knowing that the situation was not good, he persuaded him to work hard, but was repelled by Duke Hui of Jin. Some villains took the opportunity to tell Duke Hui of Jin that these ministers and people slandered the monarch because they were instigated by Chong Er. Although Chong Er did not return to Jin, But he wanted to be a king, and he did a lot of bad things behind his back. Only by getting rid of Chong Er can we get rid of future troubles forever."
