Rebirth of Wu Ba Spring and Autumn

In the original history, Chang Hong died tragically and heroically.

Chang Hong's knowledge, loyalty and way of governing the country have not won the rewards they deserve.

When the rebellion of Fan Jishe and Zhong Xingyin occurred in Jin State, Chang Hong's monarch Liu Wengong and Fan Jishe were marriage relatives for generations. In order to achieve the purpose of weakening the strength of Jin State and assisting the royal family, Chang Hong secretly advised Fan.

Therefore, after the civil strife subsided, Jin Qing Zhao Yang used this as an excuse to conquer the Zhou royal family.

Zhou Tianzi came to the throne relying on the support of the state of Jin. Under pressure, he ordered Chang Hong to be killed in order to calm things down and please the state of Jin.

The loyal Chang Hong finally became a "scapegoat".

According to legend, because Chang Hong died tragically and unjustly, his blood turned into jasper in three years.

Later, "green blood" and "loyalty" are often used to praise those who died for the country, and Chang Honghuabi and June Feixue are used as metaphors for eternal injustice...

"Changzi, you have passed the rare years in ancient times, and it is time to enjoy your old age in peace. Why do you not hesitate to work so hard to fulfill the king's order? Don't Zhou Tianzi and Liu Zi feel sympathetic to you, Changzi?"

Chang Hong shook his head and said: "Marquis Wu's words are wrong. It is my honor to be able to work for the emperor, and it is my duty to be able to work for the king."

"What's wrong with being a little tired?"

Hearing this, Qing Ji looked at Chang Hong with admiration, and said, "Chang Zi, I heard that you were like Bigan in the Shang Dynasty, and you were loyal to the emperor. Seeing you today, you really deserve your reputation.

"It's just that I'm sorry to say it bluntly, Chang Zi, you have worked hard with all your heart, and you have a great talent for repairing Qi Zhiping. You have won the trust of the emperor. The monarch and his ministers are working together to restore the royal family, but it is not the case."

"Why?"

"It's just because the Zhou family has gone through fourteen generations since King You's coma, and it has been in a slump. Changzi, if you want to revive the royal family, there will definitely be no good results."

"..."

Qingji's words made Chang Hong silent for a while.

In fact, as early as the beginning of the melee in the Six Jin Dynasty, Zhou Tianzi sent three envoys to Jinling to persuade Qingji to uphold justice and prevent the war among the princes of the Six Jin Dynasty.

However, Qingji has always avoided seeing the envoys of the Zhou royal family.

It was also because Chang Hong's reputation was big enough that Qingji had no choice but to show him some favors.

"Ugh!"

Chang Hong let out a long sigh and said, "Marquis Wu, since King Ping moved to the east, rituals have collapsed and music has broken down, and the world has been in turmoil, which has resulted in frequent conquests and wars by various countries, and the misery of Li and Shu."

"If the rites of Zhou are restored, and the feudal lords respect the Zhou family and rule the world, the world will surely be stable, and there will be no more wars in China and Kyushu."

"Chang Zi's words are wrong."

Qing Ji waved his hands and said, "The world is chaotic today, how can we get peace? The way of kings is not good, only the way of soldiers is honored!"

"The decline and demise of Zhou De is now a foregone conclusion. If Chang Zi and the Zhou royal family continue to go against the law and insist on going against the sky, it may lead to the destruction of the royal family, and their lives will be exhausted!"

"In a troubled time, the world is going downhill, people's hearts are in chaos, and the Zhou royal family is sandwiched between the heroes of the nations. It is not easy to survive. Why do you want to intervene in the feudal hegemony?"

The Zhou royal family sent troops to intervene in the civil war among the princes of the Six Jin Dynasties. It was really a stupid act and an act of overestimation.

The purpose of Zhou Tianzi, Chang Hong and others may be to enhance the influence of the Zhou royal family, but they do not know that a careless move may cause the Zhou royal family to be destroyed...

Chang Hong thought for a moment, then bowed to Qingji and said, "Marquis Wu, even though it is so, now that Fan and Bank of China have been destroyed, Zhiguo is facing the allied forces of Han, Zhao, Wei, and Dai. It’s also at risk.”

"At this time, if Marquis Wu sits back and watches Zhiguo fall, I'm afraid that Han, Zhao, and Wei's power will endanger Wu's hegemony once they gain power."

Hearing this, Qingji just smiled lightly and said, "Chang Zi, I will tell you the truth."

"Whether it's the Six Jins, or the Three Jins, or the reappearance of the former overlord Jin, no one is afraid!"

"This year, the princes of the sixteen countries joined forces to attack Wu, and the Ru Zhou family also participated in it. Even if the widow did not question the Zhou family, how can the emperor have the face to ask the widow to send troops to stop the melee in the Central Plains?"

"This……"

Chang Hong couldn't help being speechless.

This behavior of the Zhou royal family is indeed brazen.

Previously, the royal family of Zhou acted as a fool and followed the coalition of princes headed by Duke Jing to conquer Wu. Qingji did not even settle accounts with the royal family of Zhou. How could Emperor Zhou have the audacity to ask Qingji to help?
Is it just a false name of an overlord?
Qingji already hated the Zhou royal family who were good at playing tricks on both ends of the head and rats. He might find an opportunity to wipe out the surviving Zhou royal family at any time.

"Changzi, go back and tell the emperor."

Qingji said solemnly: "If Zhiguo is destroyed, I can guarantee the safety of Zhou Wangji's land, so that the three Jins will not dare to violate Ru's border. That's it."

"Thank you, Marquis Wu."

Chang Hong breathed a sigh of relief.

His original purpose was to ask Qingji to protect the Zhou royal family.

As for the survival of Zhiguo, Emperor Zhou didn't care.

Having said that, the influence of Wu State in the land of King Ji of Zhou Tianzi is already enormous.

Although Qingji had to give a batch of tributes to Emperor Zhou in form every year, the State of Wu had already stationed troops in the land of Wang Ji, and even asked the officials of the State of Wu to serve as ministers in the royal family of Zhou and promote enlightenment...

This made sufficient preparations for Wu Guo to annihilate the Zhou royal family in the future.

Qingji is a person who is good at planning ahead.

In his heart, why didn't he want to prevent the four kingdoms of Han, Zhao, Wei and Dai from destroying wisdom?

However, the current state of Wu is already somewhat powerless.

Fortunately, it doesn't matter!

The change from the Six Jin Dynasty to the Three Jin Dynasty really made Qingji feel a little dignified.

Why?

Because the three Jins of Han, Zhao, and Wei were indeed very powerful in the Warring States Period.

Even South Korea, the weakest country, has a very developed military handicraft industry. There is a saying that "all the strongest bows and crossbows in the world come from South Korea", and Han Jian is also extremely sharp, known as "cutting cattle and horses by land, and geese by water".

Zhao Guo, after Zhao Wuling King's Hufu riding and shooting, the national power has greatly increased, the military strength is strong, and it was once able to compete with the rising Qin State.

The state of Wei became the overlord of the world for a time, and the soldiers of Wei beat Qin, Chu, Qi and other big countries.

The three Jins tied together are equivalent to the overlord Jin, so even Qingji has to pay attention to it.

However, with the current national strength of Wu State, if you keep a low profile, you can get rid of Sanjin by a few streets.

As far as reforms are concerned, the state of Wu started earlier, while the Three Jins were just picking up people's teeth...

Not long after Chang Hong left the Zide Hall, Qingji, who was dealing with daily government affairs, was reported by the CRRC Mansion Order.

"Your Majesty, the State of Qi's Shangqing Gao Zhang and Guo Xia are asking to see you."

"not see."

Qingji refused without thinking.

Qingji was well aware of the reason for these two people's visit.

After Tian Qi launched the coup, Guo Xia and Gao Zhang, who were Qi Jinggong's Tuogu ministers, were expelled. Those who escaped from death came to Wu State and asked Qingji to send troops to uphold justice for the deposed Lu Tu.

Although Qingji asked Heibingtai to rescue Lu Tu and Rui Ji's mother and son, and placed them in Jinling for proper protection, but Qingji had never planned to help Lu Tu reset, how could this make Guoxia and Gao Zhang uneasy? Anxious?
