(Why is it updated so late? Because of the plot! Go for the third update tomorrow!!)

As time passed, after September entered, the entire Central Plains gradually became chilled.

Autumn is coming to an end, and winter is coming!

This also means that the great powers of the princes and countries who are fighting fiercely in Chen have each experienced some breathing opportunities and can be safe for a while.

However, this autumn is a little different from previous years. Today, even within the royal capital of the Zhou Dynasty, you can still feel a lingering and murderous aura.

Even though the news spread slowly now, the news of the Qin army defeating the Wei army in the front spread, which made the Zhou royal family and their subjects south of the river feel panic.

Although the Qin people were arrogant and rude, they were at least closer to the Zhou Shi. If the Wei people stood up on the front line, the Zhou Shi would be in danger.

However, these people could only watch this way. After all, the Zhou Dynasty's defense force is now in name only. What should we do to resist the Wei army?

This is by no means boastful, but is quickly confirmed by something, and it is an extraordinary event.

In addition to the fierce battle between Qin, Chu and Wei, which everyone is most concerned about, the thing that the subjects of the Zhou Dynasty is the upcoming Qin bride welcome mission.

If the Zhou Dynasty wants to gain peace, it needs to establish good relations with these great powers, and Qin and Chu are its main targets to win over.

Among them, especially Qin State, the best choice for this behemoth entrenched in the north of the Zhou Dynasty became the best choice for the Zhou Dynasty.

Shortly after marrying the fourth princess Ji Biyue, the Zhou Shi once again married Qin and wanted to marry the third princess to the prince of Qin.

But what interested the people most was that the third princess who was used to marry was almost twenty years old.

It is undoubtedly an outrageous thing in this era, but even more outrageous things are still to come.

On August 29th, news came from the north that the Qin prince and his delegation who came to welcome the bride were all killed by the thieves.

In other words, the marriage between Qin and Zhou dynasties was forced to end here.

This undoubtedly made the royal family angry, and the new emperor Ji Xiao was even more furious, ordering a thorough investigation of the whole story and giving himself an explanation to the people of Qin.

On the territory of Zhou Shi, a Qin prince died, which was undoubtedly the most difficult event he would face since he came to power.

If this matter is handled improperly, it may offend the Qin Dynasty's office and cause disaster to the Zhou Dynasty.

In fact, based on existing news, we already knew that this was done by the Wei people, because the Wei army had no intention of covering up after taking action.

Therefore, this investigation focuses more on clarifying the way the Wei army marched and restoring the entire process of attacking and killing the Qin delegation.

Then things went smoothly beyond imagination. Everything was blamed on the Zhou army's military's loose military preparations, which allowed the Wei army to smuggle across the river and then attack and kill the Qin delegation within the royal capital.

Sitting on the throne, Ji Xiao looked at a word handed over by his subordinates in the information and said with hatred: "Wei Wuji..."

The person who attacked and killed the Qin delegation was sent by Wei Wuji. Although Ji Xiao was angry when he learned about this news, he was not surprised.

Now it is approaching the cold winter, and the line along Changping Pass is not peaceful, because it is because of this young master of Wei.

Now, this person has killed the Qin mission and the Qin prince. Isn’t this going to turn the situation upside down?

This is something Ji Xiao never wanted to see, but when faced with the situation in front of him, he only felt powerless.

Without an army in his hand, he could only let the situation develop and it was difficult to make an impact.

After rubbing his forehead, Wei Wuji said to the eunuch beside him: "Can this be transmitted to the Qin State?"

The eunuch standing beside him replied respectfully: "Go back to Your Majesty, you have sent people to spread the Qin army camps in Xianyang and Xiping yesterday!"

Ji Xiao nodded. The news must be transmitted to these two places, so that the anger of the Qin people can be transferred to those who should bear it.

Then, Ji Xiao asked again: "What is the situation outside now? How do the people view this matter?"

After thinking about it, the eunuch replied: "Return to Your Majesty, I don't know who leaked the news now. The incident of the Qin delegation being attacked by the Wei army in Shangluo City has spread!"

After looking at the emperor on the throne, the eunuch continued: "What's even more hateful is that it is still circulating in the city. It is said that it was done by Wu Yangjun of Wei State!"

As the emperor's attendant, the eunuch knew very well that his master hated the prince of Wei and did not like anyone to discuss the matters related to this person.

Sure enough, after the eunuchs finished speaking, Ji Xiao asked in a deep voice: "There are people circulating in the city? Is it about the frontline war or the current attack on the Qin delegation?"

After the eunuch next to him sorted out his thoughts, he replied carefully: "Report to Your Majesty, the people below talked about the defeat of the Qin army outside Changping Pass a few days ago..."

After looking at the emperor who was already as heavy as water, the eunuch continued, "And in the past two days, what is being talked about in the city is the attacks and killing of the Qin envoys!"

In fact, this eunuch could not mention these bad things, so he would not have to be as worried as he is now.

But the emperor in front of him is different from his father. He is a little more ambitious and wants to do something.

If he learned about these situations later and the eunuch had not reported it at this time, he would have died.

But at this time, the eunuch imagined that the thunder and anger did not come, but saw that the emperor slowly returned to peace.

At this time, Ji Xiaoze said: "Let the people below check it carefully. Who leaked the news here? Let everyone in the city know the prince of Wei!"

In Ji Xiao's opinion, although Wei's defeat of Qin and Qin's missions were killed, they could be spread... but even Wei Wuji was known to the people, which seemed very abnormal.

The name of Wu Yangjun of Wei State is already very famous. Should he become more prosperous after this war? Ji Xiao will never tolerate it.

He is the emperor, and he should be the one who is known and praised by all people!

Then, Ji Xiao asked about another thing, and only heard him say: "How do the Qing family react to the recruitment matters now?"

In order to re-establish the majesty of the dynasty, Ji Xiao is now working on military training, taking the palace garrison as the backbone, and wanting to train an elite soldier who can fight and fight.

It is unrealistic to do all this by Ji Zhao alone. He has to discuss with several of the great nobles below and work together to promote this matter.

But all the signs show that the people below were not so concerned about this, and no one stood up until now to support Ji Xiao.

So, when Ji Xiao asked about this, the eunuch really didn't care about the random reply.

"Your Majesty, I believe you are still planning. This matter is very important... It is normal to think about it more!" The eunuch said carefully.

Ji Xiao waved his hand, and of course he could hear that this was a comforting word. The people below did not express their opinions yet, but in fact they had already expressed their attitude.

These people are content with the status quo, and they don’t want to make trouble anymore... Ji Xiao thought so.

They can be satisfied with comfort, but Ji Xiao, as the emperor, cannot. Military reform is imperative. Even without the support of these people, he still needs to continue to implement it.
