I am a nobleman in Spring and Autumn

Chapter 162 At this moment, so united as one
Because the Chu army has withdrawn to the country, Zheng Guo has also suffered serious losses. Not surprisingly, there will be no more national wars in Jin this year.

As for Fan?It was just a continuation of the civil war, and the rest of the families had no obligation to participate in the war, and whoever wanted to get something would send troops to fight in person.

Therefore, the families that will continue to use troops will be the Zhao family and the Wei family, and the Zhi family, the Han family and the Hu family can stand by as spectators.

"'Yuan Rong' has repeatedly urged the adults to go back, and wants to send troops to attack the Fan family for my family?" Zhiyao knows that there is a high probability that it is because of this, but it is because Zhao Yang has not officially mentioned it yet.

Zhishen has decided to return to "Xintian", and the time is just three days later.

Zhiyao said again: "If Wu Jun really goes north, there is nothing wrong with it."

The Zhi family participated in the military action against the Fan family last time, but it was very different from what Zhao Yang wanted. The Zhi family used Fan Gaoyi to complete the peaceful handover, and the Wei family benefited the most.

This situation is undoubtedly even more unfavorable to the Zhao family. The military progress is only one of them. The more important thing is that the Zhi family has not been held back in terms of people's livelihood. The Wei family who is stuck in the quagmire is about to break free.

Everyone can resume production, only the Zhao family is still in deep trouble, and the ups and downs will definitely make Zhao's dilemma more obvious.

Seeing Zhishen's incomprehensible expression, Zhiyao explained: "My family doesn't need to add another city, it's good to get someone."

Lao Zhi's family now has the most fiefdoms in the Jin Kingdom, and many places are unable to develop, so it is of little significance to obtain new fiefdoms.Even if it is to obtain a mature fiefdom, it actually depends on where it is.

What Zhiyao wanted to do was to centralize the fiefs, but it was a pity that it was difficult to get other families to agree to the fief replacement, so they didn't even mention it.

Three days later, Zhiyao will go to "Xintian" with Zhishen.

This is not intentional to embarrass Chu, but Zhiyao does not want to embarrass Lao Tzu.

The current Zhi family needs Lao Tzu very much, and Lao Tzu is very interested in participating in various major projects.

So, no matter whether the state of Chu knows that Lao Tzu is on the side of "Handan", why bother to make things difficult for each other?
Zhiyao's leaving without saying goodbye to Confucius is a kind of bewildered psychology.

Regarding Confucius' departure, Zhiyao only learned about it from Zigong, and expressed her confusion at that time.

Zigong did not apologize for Confucius, but made an explanation that was not an explanation.

After doing this, there is a high probability that Confucius will not visit Zhishi again in the future.

There is no other reason for Confucius not going to Zhishi, but simply leaving without saying goodbye. How big of a face should he be to pretend that nothing happened?
To be honest, Zhiyao had no nostalgia for Confucius' departure, and she expressed her dissatisfaction when she left without saying goodbye. A group of "Confucians" stayed and continued to help Zhiyao's various constructions and developments. Thank you.

Because Zhishen didn't come to inspect "Handan" after the Zhi family took over, and everyone in Lao Zhi's family worked hard before, so they felt a little bit unmotivated.

This time, Zhishen just came to "Handan" with his eyes and ears to inspect, and did not make any changes. There is a saying that a pair of old Zhijia members still played an irreplaceable role as an incentive.

After all, no matter how capable Zhiyao is, he is still the eldest son, but Zhishen is the head of the family!
When Zhishen came over, not only the people in Laozhi's family were encouraged, but Lao Tzu who was similar to the role of Ke Qing and those "Confucians" could also feel the importance that Zhi's attached to "Handan".

On another level, Zhiyao doesn't care whether Zhishen understands what the various constructions of "Handan" mean, she just wants Zhishen to see the results of various constructions.

It's important to know about this!
Not only "Handan" is changing with each passing day, Zhiyao, as the chief planner, also needs to be affirmed, and further strengthen the authority of the prince.

So, don't look at a leader who always looks here and there, even if it's just going through the motions, it is actually quite necessary for some people!

After returning to "Xintian", Zhiyao sent someone to confirm, confirming the information that Zhao Wuji was driven back to "Zhao" by Zhao Yang.

That happened a month ago, when Zhiyao was taking Zhishen on a tour.

Actually, right?Zhiyao really doesn't care whether Zhao Wuji apologizes or not, or how sincere Zhao Wuji's apology is.

Zhiyao has already regarded the Zhao family as a target that must be eliminated, and it is enough to follow this target firmly, and nothing will change the original intention in the process.

"The Zhao family is gathering more troops, and they are already heading south." Wei Ju learned that Zhiyao had returned to the capital, so he came to visit without sending anyone.

Why is it not considered rude for Wei Ju to do this?He and Zhiyao are having a good time now, and they will send someone to notify them in advance of every visit, otherwise they will appear more distant.

Under normal circumstances, friends have to send someone to inform them in advance, which represents an attitude of doing business.

The last time Zhao Wuji didn't send someone to inform him in advance, it was interpreted as the apology was insincere and there was nothing wrong with it.

But I don't know if Zhao Wuxie was driven back to "Zhao" city by Zhao Yang because he couldn't even handle this kind of thing well.

Or maybe Zhao Yang asked Zhao Wuxie to go back to "Zhao" city to avoid the limelight?

Why?It may be that Zhao Wuxie failed to plot against Zhishi and Weishi, but it revealed that Zhao Wuxie is a gloomy person.

Speaking of which, the first job Zhao Wuji did as soon as he became the son of the Zhao family failed, which made Zhao Yang a fool to some extent.

Zhiyao was really surprised that Zhao's army went south alone.

"Zhao Yang hasn't left 'Xintian' yet?" Zhiyao thought.

Indeed, Zhao Yangren is still in "Xintian" and has not left for the time being.

This time the Zhao family assembled an "army" of troops, including the strength of the vassal families, reaching the total strength of one "army" and two "divisions".

"My father doesn't know how to respond to the proposal of 'Yuan Rong' to jointly send troops." Wei Ju said.

Zhiyao has a judgment from the scale of troops assembled by the Zhao family.

Apparently, Zhao Yang didn't feel much hope for Zhishen and Wei's joint troops. He would stay in "Xintian" and wait for Zhishen to return, and he would make the last attempt.

If the Zhi family refused to join forces to go south, Zhao Yang was left with one option to conquer "Wen" regardless of casualties.

"Even if the Zhao family is really weak, they still need to show that they are still strong. Winning 'Wen' alone will be a way to prove it." Zhiyao thought to herself.

Wei Ju waited for a while but did not see Zhiyao's answer, and said, "Wu Jun is going north."

More than one family got the news that Wu Jun was going north, and the news first came from Song State, and then some people in Chu State who had friendship with the nobles of Jin State passed the news over.

Zhiyao said: "Wu's army defeated Qi's army last year, and the king of Wu's ambition has increased."

There will be many people who are confused about Wu's failure to take advantage of Chu's victory and pursue it. They wonder why Wu didn't keep fighting until Chu was destroyed since Wu could hold down Chu.
Those who have that kind of thinking probably don't know that Chu State has a vast territory, and once Chu State has built a solid wall and cleared the land and shrunk back to the west of Yunmengze, Wu State has no good way to take Chu State at all.Even if Wu Jun ventured through Yunmeng Lake, there was a huge risk of being cut off at any time, and then besieged and wiped out.

The last time Wu Jun was able to conquer the "Ying" capital of Chu State, and Chu State was really conquered. The factors are really too complicated. More than [-]% of the blame has to be carried by Chu State itself, and the other half is Sun Wu and Wu Zixu. force.

Now, the state of Chu can send troops to the north, which means that the internal conflicts in the state of Chu have been eased. Even if they are beaten again by the state of Jin, the failure of the military operation does not mean that the political situation has fallen into a bad situation again.

In fact, we should look at it this way. The state of Chu showed its strength by destroying the Man clan and interfering in the internal affairs of Jin. The loss of [-] to [-] troops may be a serious injury to other countries. In history, the state of Chu lost more than ten troops. It often happens in Wandu, and losing [-] to [-] yuan at a time is really not a big deal.

"Chu is returning to the teacher, and I don't want to go north again." Zhiyao thinks that what Chu wants to show is this attitude, and the envoy of Chu will arrive soon, and it will definitely confirm this.

The information that Wei Ju has is the same, otherwise the Chu army in Zheng State would not need to return home.

Zhiyao said: "I heard that Bai Gongsheng has served for Wu."

Who is this Bai Gongsheng?He is the son of the late Prince Jian of Chu State, and the nephew of the current King of Chu State. What needs to be known is that he hates Zheng State very much.

Wei Ju understood as soon as he heard it, and asked, "Wu will attack Chu again?"

That is a clear thing, Bai Gongsheng is willing to serve the state of Wu, nothing more than the choice of the state of Chu to help the state of Zheng makes him feel desperate, and he wants to use the method of serving the state of Wu, and then lead the Wu army to attack the state of Chu, and knock a mark on the celestial cover of the king and ministers of the state of Chu , so that the king and ministers of the state of Chu can understand who is the real enemy.

Zhiyao nodded in response to Wei Ju's guess, and said, "My family can send troops south."

Wei Ju clenched his hand hidden in his sleeve into a fist, thinking: "As expected, Zhiyao did not disappoint me."

Zhiyao didn't know what Wei Ju was thinking, so she said truthfully, "It's not to help the Zhao family, it's just for the Wu army to go north."

That is to say, the Zhao family should pay the Zhi family a reasonable reward, not help the Zhao family to destroy the Fan family for free.

At the same time, the Zhi family and the Zhao family are also reaping some of the fruits of victory.

After chatting for a while, Wei Ju said goodbye and left.

At night, Zhishen went home and told the results of the discussion.

First, the Zhi family expressed their willingness to help the Zhao family. Wei Lu, who went out for a while and came back, also expressed his willingness to send troops. Then the Fox family was also willing to send troops as if they were joining forces. Han Buxin of the Han family expressed his willingness to send troops a long time ago.

At this moment, all the "qings" of the state of Jin showed that they were united, but Zhao Yang's mood was so complicated that it was difficult to describe.

Originally, Zhao Yang planned to kowtow "Wen" to show that the Zhao family was not weak, so he yelled a few more times just to give it a try. He also guessed in advance that the colleagues who knew that Wu Jun was about to go north would agree. How could he think that more than one family would nod. That spirit of unity?

"Although it is because of interests, it is a good thing to be able to unite!" Zhao Yang had this kind of thinking, but he was really annoyed by Fan's entanglement. It is a good thing to give up some interests in exchange for uniting to solve Fan's, and Jin needs to deal with Wu. country's challenges.

The news spread that several high-ranking families expressed their intention to go south together. The people with lofty ideals in the Jin Kingdom were simply rejoiced, and more people were full of bewilderment.

However, when the news that Wu Jun was about to go north was no longer a secret, those confused people immediately cheered up.

"Sure enough, external threats are still needed to make the internal unity. Shi Xie is sincere and not deceiving!"

It's a bit ironic that this wave of Lao Fan's family is really coming to an end!
