The mysterious bird of destiny, the beginning of China

Chapter 58 Princess Zhenguo
"...Princess Xia fought for the Qin Dynasty. Although she was a woman, she still charged into the battle. She should be the humerus of the country! Therefore, she was named as the ruler of the country and ranked as a Hou Qing!"

As Qiliji's voice disappeared, the palace still fell into a brief calm.

After a while, the ministers were talking a lot, and their eyes couldn't help but look at the calm-looking Princess Xia beside them.

According to the late king's decree, Princess Xia was given the title of Princess Zhenguo by the former king, and she also enjoyed the honor of a marquis. In this way, I am afraid that besides the King of Qin, Princess Zhenguo will be the most popular!

However, this is the legacy of the previous king and cannot be changed by the ministers.

On the other side, Zhang Yi was not surprised when he heard the content of the imperial edict. Given the late king's love for Princess Xia, no matter what rewards the late king gave to Princess Xia, it would not surprise him.

In addition to the surprise of the ministers, King Qin Ying Dang, who was sitting on the throne, also showed a joyful smile.

When King Yingdang of Qin was a prince, he studied with Princess Xia, and they were very affectionate.Today, Princess Xia was awarded the title of Princess of the Kingdom, and King Qin Yingdang was also very happy.

Before that, he was very worried about how to reward his eldest sister. He never thought that the late king had already rewarded her.

"However, this reward is from my father, and I still have to reward it!"

Just when King Qin Yingdang was thinking this, he saw Princess Xia coming out of the procession, respectfully taking the imperial edict from Chuiliji, and thanking the late king.

Princess Xia had no interest in political affairs. She took the imperial edict, held it in her hands carefully, and then fell into her own thoughts.

No matter what happens in the court, they don't care.

……

Princess Xia didn't care about the affairs of the court, but that didn't mean that others didn't care. Especially when the late king's edict was read out at the court meeting today, everyone was shocked by the content of the edict.

"How fortunate it is to have the name of a country!"

"If this name is given to me, I will die nine times without regrets!"

"This name matches Princess Xia perfectly!"

"Those who are trapped in the camp are the elites of the Qin State, so they deserve this name!"

……

As soon as the title of Princess Zhenguo came out, not to mention the people of Qin, everyone was shocked when it spread to the six eastern countries.

Wei State.

The King of Wei, Wei Si, was very sorry. Hearing this name, he couldn't help but said: "I have heard that the late king once wanted to marry Qin and asked the Qin princess Xia to marry me, but why didn't it happen?"

King Wei looked at his ministers below with a look of regret on his face.

When the ministers heard this, they were all speechless. The State of Qin had not agreed. Because the King of Qin loved his daughter, how could he marry to another country?

In this way, the Wei State retreated and sought the next best thing, welcoming Qin's divine bird into Wei, but it made Wei lose face in the world!

However, these things are the shame of the Wei State and should not be mentioned again, so some officials said, "Now the Qin State Princess Xia is twenty-nine years old. Although she is older, she can still be the queen. Why doesn't the king take advantage of this opportunity to send an attendant to go there?" When the State of Qin congratulates the new king, will you mention this again?"

"Oh?"

After hearing this, King Wei's eyes lit up and his face was filled with glory.

He immediately said: "Good."

"But who can be the envoy?"

When the King of Wei asked, all the Wei ministers were speechless and lowered their heads.

……

Xianyang City of Qin State.

Envoys from all the eastern countries came to congratulate Qin on the new king.

However, among them, Wei, Zhao, Chu, and Qi all had evil intentions and bad intentions.But the officials of Qin State knew it.

King Wen of Qin died. All the agreements he had made with all the countries were over, and all the countries were ready to move.I also heard that the new king of Qin is young and does not know political affairs yet, so he may be able to lobby.

At the same time, in Xianyang Palace and the first palace garden, figures were shaking.

The new king Kong Wu is fond of plays. When he was the crown prince, he had guests such as Ren Bi, Wu Huo and Meng Shuo. Today he is performing in the palace garden, unlike the king.

At this time, a man in armor walked out of the corridor, it was Qiliji. "Your Majesty, I am a little confused about this prime minister."

Qiliji held a bamboo slip in his hand and said.Chuiliji looked at Ren Bi, Wu Huo, and Meng Shuo in the palace garden, with displeasure flashing in his eyes.

When King Qin Yingdang heard this, he immediately stepped forward with sweat on his body, took the wine from the hand of the palace maid, took a sip, and then said: "I think all the countries in the east have their own prime ministers, but Qin is different from the countries in the east. I despise it!"

"Therefore, how can we be the same as them?"

"I want to deprive myself of the chancellorship, so I appoint left and right prime ministers."

"Uncle Gong is the prime minister on the right, and Gan Mao is the prime minister on the left. They are in charge of government affairs and military affairs respectively!"

King Qin Yingdang had a smile on his face and seemed to be very proud of his idea, "What do you think, uncle?"

The position of Prime Minister has been with us for a long time, so how can we let it go so easily? At first, Chuiliji thought it was King Qin's hotheaded action. But today, after hearing King Qin Yingdang's explanation, he thought it was very good.

So he nodded and said: "Yes!"

"In this case, the uncle will announce it at the court meeting tomorrow!"

However, Qi Liji still had doubts, because as King Qin Yingdang said just now, Prime Minister Zuo was Gan Mao!
Today, the prime minister of the Qin State is Zhang Yi, and Zhang Yi has made great contributions to the Qin State. If he quits the post of prime minister, where will Zhang Yi be?

And not the Prime Minister!
But Qiliji knew that the current King of Qin did not like Zhang Yi and was afraid of driving him away.

Qiliji knew that he could not say much, so he asked again: "Your Majesty, where will the envoys from all countries be summoned tomorrow?"

"Oh, I will naturally know what the envoys from the various countries have in mind when they come to Qin. Wait a moment, all the lands in the east will be returned to Qin in the future!"

Speaking of this, King Qin Ying Dang's burly body trembled, and a chill appeared in his eyes.Then he added: "I heard that there is Yue State in the southeast of Chu State, and it has always been at odds with Chu State. This time, envoys from Yue State came again, so..."

"So the king wants to join forces with Yuewei Chu?"

"Of course!"

King Qin Yingdang nodded and said: "If the Yue Kingdom invades the southeast of the Chu Kingdom, the Chu Kingdom will definitely have no time to take care of it. And if a few people want to attack South Korea, the Chu Kingdom will not be able to help South Korea's soldiers!"

"Although South Korea is weak, with the help of Wei, I am afraid that Qin will not be able to capture the city. I think it is inappropriate!"

"Uncle, don't be anxious. Of course, this plan is not what I thought, but the plan of Prime Minister Zuo Gan Mao!"

"When the time is right, unite with the Wei State again to gain advantage and suppress it with force, and let the Wei State and Qin State send troops to attack South Korea together!"

Hearing this, Chuiliji looked thoughtful, and then was slowly nodded in agreement.

Because this is the first time that King Qin Ying Dang has fought a foreign war since he became King of Qin. Although he is the uncle, he still cannot say much!

……

"Why do you have such thoughts? This is foolishness and filial piety!"

Huizhi Palace.

Even now that the new king has succeeded to the throne, Princess Xia still lives in Huizhi Palace.Because King Qin Yingdang granted it.

At this moment, Bai Zhi stood on the table, looking at Princess Xia in mourning clothes, quite puzzled.

because;

"Xia heard that there was a wise man named Confucius in the state of Lu. He taught his disciples with benevolence and etiquette, and he also treated his elders with filial piety."

"What's more, I should do something for my father-in-law's elders who have not been polite for three years and have not been happy for three years, so as to thank my father-in-law's elders for their kindness in raising me, or to relieve the pain of missing him!"

Listening to Princess Xia's explanation, Bai Zhi felt a headache.He never expected that there was a saying of keeping filial piety during the Warring States Period.

Of course, it may not be the word "filial piety" at this time, but it is the reality of keeping filial piety.

"Confucius once said that three years is not a requirement of etiquette, but a personal requirement!"

Bai Zhi wanted to persuade him again.

"This is Xia's personal request!"
