Rebirth of Wu Ba Spring and Autumn

What Qing Ji said is exactly what Shi Jishe and Zhong Xingyin are most worried about.

It stands to reason that the princes' division of land into Jin has little to do with them.

But in today's meeting, the attitudes of Zheng Bo Jisheng and Wei Hou Jiyuan really made them have to worry.

Once the state of Jin is destroyed, can the two former Shangqing of the state of Jin and their own fiefs continue to be retained?

The most important thing is the fiefdom!

The fiefdoms of Erqing are scattered all over the state of Jin, showing a criss-cross pattern.

Once the "loot" is unevenly distributed among the princes, the Fan family and the Zhongxing family will definitely be unlucky in the end.

If Erqing belongs to Qi State, or to Wei State or Zheng State, can they still enjoy such a large fiefdom?
The six ministers of the state of Jin are as powerful as the princes.

Qi Hou, Wei Hou, Zheng Bo, etc., can they tolerate the existence of such powerful officials?
Isn't that a country within a country?

"Wu Hou!"

In the Shang Dynasty, during the time of Yin Shang Wuding, after the King of Shang destroyed Zhu Rong, he took back the land of Pig Wei, granted it to Liu Lei's descendants, and continued the title of Pig Wei.

Now, the time has come.

Qingji smiled slightly.

Obviously, Qingji did not intend to make decisions for Shi Jishe and Zhong Xingyin.

"If the Marquis of Wu can take him in, I am willing to merge the land of the Zhongxing Clan into the State of Wu, and we will share the same ties with the State from generation to generation!"

These small countries used to follow Wu to attack Chu, and they won many cities and lands.

Zhong Xingyin said anxiously: "Wu Hou, all the princes today have the heart to divide the land into Jin Dynasty, but Wu Hou is the only one who has righteousness in your heart, and has the legacy of Qi Huan and Jin Wen in the past."

"However, the state of Wu lives in the south of the Yangtze River, and everything in the Central Plains is beyond the reach of the whip. Erqing's fiefdoms are located in the Central Plains, so how can I add them?"

From then on, Liu Lei changed from the Liu family to the pig-Wei family, and attached himself to the Shang Dynasty.

If Qingji opened the door and allowed Zhongxing and Fan to sit on the fief, wouldn't it be an opening?
Breaking a precedent?

Absolutely not!
Furthermore, the fiefdoms of the Zhongxing and Fan clans are scattered all over the state of Jin, but the main force of the fiefdoms lies in the northwest of Shanxi, which does not border on the state of Wu...

This is the origin of Zhongxingshi.

"If even Marquis Wu can't uphold justice for our Zhongxing and Fan clans, who can do it?"

The Fan family of Jin State is a prominent Qing family.

The direct ancestor of the Zhongxing family is Zhongxing Huanzi.

Qingji really didn't care much about the false name of the overlord.

When the Jin teacher returned to the country, Xun Lin's father did not convict him, and remained in his original post.

The vassal state of Wu State has nine small states including Cai, Xu, and Zhongwu.

"Could it be Qihou?"

For example, the Zhongxing family, like the Zhi family, came from the Xun family, and the ancestors of Erqing are of the same ancestor.

Zhongxing Huanzi, with the surname of Ji, Zhongxing's family, was named Lin's father. Because Zhongxing's family came from the Xun family, he was often called Xunlin's father, and his posthumous title was Huan. He was called Zhongxing Huanzi in history.

King Xuan of Zhou killed Du Bo, his son Uncle Xi went to Jin as a military officer, and his great-great-grandson Shihui served as the general of the Jin army.

To be honest, it wasn't that Qingji looked down on the fiefdoms of the Zhongxing and Fan clans, as well as Erqing's huge family power.

Because of Liu Lei's meritorious service in raising dragons, Kong Jia bestowed him the "Yulong Family". Later, when a dragon died, Liu Lei made meat soup from it and presented it to Emperor Kong Jia.

Hearing this, Qing Ji pretended to be thinking, but didn't immediately agree.

For Wu Guo, this may not be a hidden danger.

How can Wu Guo want an enclave that is beyond the reach of the whip?
It is not that the Zhongxing family and the Fan family are sincerely seeking refuge in Wu, they are just acting helplessly due to the situation...

To a certain extent, this proves that Qingji is indeed a "selfless" overlord.

Seeing this, Shi Jishe paid homage to Xiang Qingji, and said with a sad expression: "Wu Hou, I am just like Zhong Xingzi, and I am willing to be the Minister of Wu, please accept Wu Hou!"

why?
Due to national power!
Caused by people!
Since Qingji succeeded to the throne, he has been expanding the territory all the year round and expanding the hegemony that belongs to Wu.

Later, after Xun Lin's father was promoted several times, he joined the army and began to join Liuzheng.

This made the two of them flustered.

Xun Lin's father is the eldest grandson of the pure official Xun Xi, the eldest son of the doctor Shi Ao, and the elder brother of Zhi Zhuangzi, the ancestor of the Zhi family.

impossible.

Before Qingji could speak, Shi Jishe who was sitting beside him sneered and said, "Qihou? Humph, Qihou is a man who forgets righteousness when he sees small gains, and cherishes himself when he does great things. How can he seek great things?"

Almost every one of the six ministers takes turns to control the state affairs, and the official worships the Zhengqing.

The same is true for the Zhongxing family, and the Fan family is no exception.

In the past, Jin Wengong ruled over the hegemony and set up three armies and three lines. In the battle of Chengpu, Xun Lin's father was the king of Jin Wengong.

The well-deserved leader of the princes!
Of course, Qingji's plot is bigger...

It is said that Liu Lei, the grandson of Emperor Yao, was the king of Xia Kong Jia, and Emperor Kong Jia got two male and female dragons. He heard that Liu Lei had learned how to raise dragons from the "Huanlong Clan", so he ordered Liu Lei to raise dragons.

Qing Ji stroked his beard and smiled, gave Shi Jishe and Zhong Xingyin a little support, and then said slowly, "Your Erqing's heart is towards the state of Wu, and I understand it."

In fact, anyone with a discerning eye could see that at this meeting in Huangchi, the emperor Zhibo and the leader of the princes were Qihou, but he was not the leader of the princes in name.

The few years when Xun Linfu was in power was the most severe moment for the Jin State in decades, but he did not lose his fighting spirit. He was tenacious and unyielding in such difficulties, and the Jin State gradually recovered some vitality and self-confidence.

At the same time, Xun Lin's father was upright, loyal and kind, and he was not blindly flattering Zhao Dun, and was slightly dissatisfied with Zhao Dun's monopoly.

What Er Qing asked was nothing more than to ask Qingji to come forward and protect their family's fiefdom.

The purpose of his frequent wars this time, following the vassals to attack Jin, was to defeat the overlord Jin and dismember the behemoth of Jin.

"Looking at it from below, in today's world, the one who can truly lead the princes and achieve dominance is none other than the Marquis of Wu!"

However, the tradition of Wu State has always been to implement the prefecture and county system, replacing the existence of fiefdoms with food towns.

Really seek refuge in Wu?

Fearing that the death of the dragon would be exposed, Liu Lei moved to Yaoshan (Dalongshan, also known as Shirenshan) on the south side of Songshan Mountain in Zhongyue, where he cultivated wasteland, fished and hunted, and was finally buried in Lu County. for the surname...

The one who is truly capable and capable of becoming Fang Bo should be Qing Ji.

Zhong Xingyin hurriedly stood up, made a "plop" towards Qingji, knelt down and saluted, and said with tears in his eyes, "Please ask Marquis Wu to be the master of my Zhongxing clan!"

"Marquis Qi has the style of an elder, and Qi is a big country in the east. Don't be disrespectful, don't be disrespectful."

At the time when Zhao Dun was in charge of the Jin Dynasty and had great power, Xun Lin's father was relied on by Zhao Dun by virtue of his outstanding talent alone.

After Zhou Chengwang destroyed the Tang Dynasty, he moved to Duyi, which was called Dubo at that time.

When Que Que passed away, King Zhuang of Chu took advantage of the power transfer of the Jin State and led his army to the Northern Expedition. Father Xun Lin was ordered to reorganize the three armies in a hurry and went south to compete with King Zhuang of Chu.

"The inheritance left by our ancestors must not be lost!"

During the Battle of Bi, because Xun Lin's father had just taken over power and had no absolute authority in the Jin army, and Xun Lin's father was loyal and dull in nature, Zuo Xianhu of the Chinese army and Xun Lin's father's army had different opinions. He was defeated by King Zhuang of Chu in the battle.

In 593 B.C., Xun Lin's father consciously partially made up for his mistakes in the Battle of Bi, announced his retirement, and the scholars would be in power.

"Marquis Qi is nothing but a bully!"

The kind that outweighs the gain!
"Fanzi, Zhongxingzi, please get up, please get up."

At the end of the Shang Dynasty, Hog-Wechsler belonged to the Tang State, changed to the Du family, and became the Tang Du family...

In the following years, he worked conscientiously for the revival of Jin.

After Zhao Dun's death, the general in the army was short of Zheng Qing, and Xun Lin's father was the assistant.

A year later, Duke Wen made three lines to prepare for Hu, and took Xun Lin's father as the general. Since then, the Xun surname has produced a new branch - the Zhongxing family.

Shi Jishe and Zhong Xingyin standing in front of Qingji are both the suzerains of their respective families, and they belong to the second of the six ministers of the state of Jin, and their influence is not small.

In 593 B.C., Shihui was promoted to the rank of assistant of the Chinese army due to his military exploits, and took charge of the government.

Shihui was first granted the title of Sui, and then Fan, so it was also called Suihui and Fanhui. After his death, he pursued the posthumous title of Wuzi, so he was also called Fan Wuzi.

The descendants then took the feudal city Fan as their surname, and called them the Fan family.

The surname Fan respects Fan Wuzi and is the ancestor of the surname Fan.

Fan Li belongs to the offshoot of the Fan family, but his family is in decline. It is said that his descendant Liu Bang also founded the Han Dynasty...
