Rebirth of Wu Ba Spring and Autumn

Chapter 856 Toad wants to eat swan meat
It wasn't until the sunset on the western mountain that Qingji led a group of officials and nobles to the bank of Taiye Pool to rest for a while.

It is said to be taking a break, but it is actually enjoying music and dancing, drinking and having fun.

Hunting has been a martial activity since ancient times.

Wu people are full of blood and have a traditional style of martial arts, so naturally they cannot be left behind.

Therefore, all the music and dance during the hunt are related to "wu".

For example, the music and dance in front of me is full of chill.

A sharp warrior in a samurai uniform swings a sword on the stage, making uniform movements.

Their every move is full of masculine beauty, coupled with the bleak music, it makes people feel pleasing to the eye.

Seeing this scene, Shu Chi, the envoy of the Yiqu Kingdom, could not help but lower his head, feeling deeply terrified.

He originally thought that Qingji's sensuality all day long has already lost his ambition and lost his former glory.

However, now it seems that, including Qingji, the whole country of Wu is still determined to forge ahead as before...

"Shuchi, I don't know why Lord Yiqu sent you to Xianyang this time?"

Qingji looked at Jochi with great interest and asked with a smile.

It has been a while since Jochi came to Xianyang City, but he has never been able to see Qingji.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Qingji asked Shuchi to participate in the hunt, as if he had no intention of intimidating the Yiqu people.

Hearing this, Jochi opened his mouth, but stopped talking.

He wondered if Qingji would be furious after he told Qingji about Yiqumo's request, and then pull him out and chop him up!
"You have something to say, but it's okay to say it. I forgive you for your innocence."

Qingji said with a pleasant face.

"King Wu, to tell you the truth, my lord intends to marry Wu."

"Oh? Marriage is a good thing."

Qing Ji slightly nodded and said, "Under Yi Qu's knees, if you have a daughter with a dignified appearance, you can marry to the state of Wu and be the widow's concubine, or the widow of a widow's son. It's not impossible."

marry a daughter?

Yiqumo has no such plan!

However, even though Shuchi was afraid of Qingji and Wu's dominance, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "King Wu, my lord wants to marry a princess of Wu..."

"absurd!"

Before Qingji could speak, Bo Tong, who was sitting on the side, immediately changed his face, pointed at Shuchi and reprimanded him: "My dignified princess of Wu, an incomparably noble person, how can she marry a Rong Jun as a concubine? "

"Don't say it's just a side concubine, even after becoming the Yiqu country, I'm afraid it will insult the name of Princess Dawu!"

"Exactly!"

"It really makes no sense!"

"The mere lord of Rongdi actually wants to marry a princess of the Wu family!"

"Don't you want to eat swan meat because of the toad?"

As soon as Bo Tong's words fell, all the officials who reacted followed and opposed this matter with righteous indignation.

The distinction between Yi and Xia is still deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

The ministers and officials of the state of Wu can tolerate wearing Hu clothes for the sake of convenience.

However, it is absolutely unacceptable for them to be humiliated by letting a princess from the state of Wu marry into a barbarian land and serve as Yiqumo's side concubine.

Shu Chi didn't expect the reaction of Wu Guoqun officials to be so fierce, he was taken aback, he hesitated and couldn't speak.

Qingji sat calmly on the majesty's platform, stroked his beard, and said slowly, "Jochi, Lord Yiqu, do you want me to send a princess to marry you?"

"Don't dare!"

Jochi quickly knelt down, with bead-sized beads of sweat on his forehead, and said in a low voice: "King Wu, my minister is here for the marriage between Yiqu Kingdom and Wu Kingdom, how can we talk about marriage?"

"Then how dare you let the widow marry a princess to Yiqumo?"

The calmer Qingji's face is at this moment, the more disturbing it is.

It seems that the mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of the building.

Qingji has many sons and daughters.

Not to mention the offspring, there are more than 50 daughters.

Most of the princesses of the Wu Kingdom were married to the monarchs and sons of the Central Plains countries, or they were married to the sons of Sun Wu, Wu Zixu, Fan Li, Ji Ran, Bo Tong and other important court officials...

This is inevitable.

Born in an emperor's family, there are too many unavoidable difficulties.

Qingji allowed his daughters to marry commoners so that they could be in love with each other.

However, the order of the parents, the words of the matchmaker.

Since they are the princesses of Wu and the daughters of Qingji, they have to bear corresponding responsibilities...

Having said that, the current Qingji can be said to be related to the monarchs of the Chinese countries.

"Isn't the king of Wu looking down on the country of Yiqu? Does he look down on the king of our country?"

Gritting his teeth, Jochi boldly asked a question.

If Qingji was furious at this time, his life would be lost.

"Shuchi, why did you say that?"

Qingji narrowed his eyes.

If Qingji could not be convinced by what Zhu Chi said, then the Yiqu man in front of him might be decapitated.

Jochi thought for a while, then said: "King Wu, Wu inherits Zhou Tong, and has the same origin as the Zhou family."

"Don't you hear the story of the marriage between the Zhou family and the Qiang women for generations before King Zhou You?"

"Your ancestor, King Wu, Tai Jiang, the concubine of Taiwang Zhou, was a Qiang woman and one of the three mothers of the Zhou family. After that, the Zhou family married with the Qiang people and the Rong people for generations, which greatly consolidated the great Zhou country. .”

"Now, king of Wu, you moved your capital to Xianyang. If you want to stabilize the western frontier of Wu, why don't you marry me with Yiqu, and make the story of Zhou Taiwang and Taijiang?"

The so-called "three mothers of the Zhou family" refer to Tai Jiang, the wife of King Tai of Zhou, Tai Ren, the wife of King Ji of Zhou, and Tai Si, the wife of King Wen of Zhou.

The three of them successively assisted and raised three generations of kings, and jointly created a peaceful and prosperous Western Zhou Dynasty.

Tai Jiang has a deep relationship with Wu Guo.

Tai Jiang gave birth to three sons, Tai Bo, Zhong Yong, and Wang Ji. She was able to teach her sons by example, so that they had no faults in moral behavior from childhood to adulthood.

What's more, King Tai of Zhou must discuss with her every time he encounters a major event, and she has never made a bad idea.

She became the powerful right-hand man of the Taiwang, and she contributed a lot to the establishment of the Zhou Dynasty.

Back then, Tai Bo and Zhong Yong, in order to let Zhou Tai Wang pass on the title of monarch to Ji Li, did not hesitate to avoid Jiangnan and create the foundation of Wu State. I believe it is inseparable from Tai Jiang's education.

It is worth mentioning that Zhou people and Qiang people have a deep relationship.

Both the Zhou and Qiang clans had extremely deep hatred with the Shang clan.

During the four hundred years or so in the Western Zhou Dynasty, the contact between the Zhou and Qiang peoples did not stop, and even the marriage between Ji and Jiang continued until the Western Zhou Dynasty fell.

Yijiang, the queen of King Wu of Zhou, was from the Qiang tribe;
Wang Jiang, the queen of King Kang of Zhou, was from the Qiang tribe;
King Mu of Zhou, Wang Zujiang, the queen of the famous King Mu Tianzi, came from the Qiang tribe;
King Zhou Yi's queen, Wang Bojiang, is from the Qiang tribe;

Zhong Jiang, the queen of King Li of Zhou, was from the Qiang tribe;
Qi Jiang, the queen of King Xuan of Zhou, came from the Qiang tribe;
Shen Jiang, the queen of King Zhou You, is from the Qiang tribe...

In this way, the marriage between Ji and Jiang of the Zhou and Qiang clans runs through the entire history of the Western Zhou Dynasty.

The fuse of the demise of the Western Zhou Dynasty was also that Queen Shen Jiang's father led dogs and soldiers to retaliate against King Zhou You, which led to the demise of the Western Zhou Dynasty.

The marriage between Zhou and Qiang in the Western Zhou Dynasty ended in this situation, and people have to sigh...

"Shu Chi, the House of Zhou is the House of Zhou, and the State of Wu is the State of Wu. The two are not the same."

Qingji smiled lightly and said, "If Mr. Yiqu wants to get married, why don't you marry a daughter? The widow must treat her kindly."

"This……"

Jochi didn't dare to answer at all.
