"The last time Zhao Wuji usurped the country, and then Tian Qi tried to restore the country in Donglai. Once I take action, I can't be regarded as the instigator."
At present, the Tian family is already engaged in the actual separatist business, and is fighting to the death with Qi Junnian's Zhengshuo. In fact, there is no extra escape route.
Let Tian Qi continue to be a minister of Qi? Even if they are willing, the problem must be accepted by Qi Junyi. Next, Qi Junyi agrees, and there is a Zhi family behind him.
Why is Zhiyao manipulating the Qi State like this? Besides eating it in one bite, it will ruin your stomach, isn’t it because he wants Tian to play the role of the king’s pioneer?
"Tian's family is very smart. They knew that someone was pushing Tian's family to this point. They must have known the danger, so they didn't kill the country with one fell swoop, and they didn't restore the country." Zhiyao really didn't mean to underestimate Tian's family.
But what? Zhi Yao thinks that Tian will follow the established script, and just because Tian doesn’t do that, Zhi Yao will continue to force Tian.
Zhiyao has sent his husband to Donglai secretly.
Fu Liao had only one mission this time, no matter what method he used, let the Tian family restore the country.
The script Zhiyao has once again made a good arrangement. The big deal is that the Zhi family will express their support for the Tian family's restoration of the country in Donglai and promise to provide security guarantees after the Tian family's restoration.
In order to achieve that goal, Zhiyao allowed his wife to leave written evidence.
In fact, evidence and other things can be destroyed. Even if Tian finally brings it out for publicity, no matter how hard the evidence is, it will be of no use. As long as Zhi firmly denies it, it is destined to turn into a quarrel with each other.
"If necessary, I can't see Tian Qi in person..." Zhiyao thought to herself.
Some people may not understand why Zhiyao insists on not being the initiator. In fact, it is not something to be ashamed of, it is mainly due to the level of strength.
What do you mean? It means that the Zhi family is not strong enough to compete with the whole world. The fewer the handles, the easier it is to break up possible alliances after doing big things. Furthermore, it is necessary to ensure that the minimum reputation can be conducive to diplomatic relations after the big things are done.
Zhiyao looked at a group of wives and children not far away and thought to herself: "It's not like I'm about to face the finale after the founding of the country. After the founding of the country, there will be more things to do!"
Currently, as the struggle for hegemony between Jin and Chu comes to an end, the world is entering a period of frequent wars.
The era of broken rites and broken music has arrived. With the princes frequently fighting against each other, the common people are increasingly feeling the pain caused by the war. Even the nobles and quasi-nobles are becoming more miserable day by day.
There is no need for Zhiyao to direct it. There are constant disputes among the countries. Every year, large and small wars begin. A large number of nobles lose their fiefdoms. After becoming destitute nobles, they are not absorbed by other nobles. If they want to find another way out, they will start.
An era of contention among a hundred schools of thought.
Zhiyao tormented the Qi State so much not only to destroy the Qi State and then occupy it, but also had too many underlying motives.
No matter how Qi is the first recognized hegemon, they are still the number one economic power in the Zhuxia system. Once Qi completely falls, all countries will inevitably be extremely vigilant. Studying the process of Qi's demise will produce some reflective factions.
to try to improve their own country.
Before the emergence of ideological trends from other countries, Zhiyao had already led the Zhi family, but it had not yet formed a system. This is the reason why Zhiyao wanted to instill spirituality. He is currently only emphasizing the importance of military merit. The time has come
It will be other steps, such as the "mission" argument that existed long ago in the Jin Dynasty.
Around the time of Duke Jinggong of Jin, the Jin State had a relevant "mission theory", emphasizing that the Jin State had the mission to ensure the stability of the world. Regardless of whether the Zhou royal family was willing to take up the banner, the princes who were dissatisfied were killed one by one.
It was not until the challenge from Chu that Jin's hegemony began to rise and fall.
"Since the 'Battle of Yanling', Zhao Wu took the lead in abandoning the theory of destiny and turned to recuperation. It was not until Shi Yang that he pursued hegemony again. In the future, I will have to pick up people's wisdom, use military skills to match the theory of destiny, and then arm the body and inspire the will.
Play and take the world by storm!"
Zhiyao's goal has always been very clear, and he just picks up the pieces and fills in the gaps as he steps forward.
During this period, Wei Ju came to visit and didn't mention anything else. He said that he would embark on the journey again in a few days.
"Regardless of whether things are successful or not, the Wei family will be rewarded generously!" Wei Ju felt that Zhiyao was interesting enough, so he couldn't help but express his feelings.
Zhiyao looked smiling and nodded repeatedly, expressing her expectation.
After the spring sowing, Wei Ju left "Xintian" and went to "Hulao".
The Wei family has successfully invited Bai Gongsheng through the Zhi family's bridge, and the two parties will have an alliance in the "Huangchi" of the Song Dynasty.
If nothing else goes wrong, Xiang Chao will also be present to represent the Song State in the alliance between Jin and Chu.
What is more interesting is that the news of the alliance between Jin and Chu in "Huangchi" spread, and Wu and Zheng also released news that they would meet in "Chao".
That "nest" is still on the territory of the Song State. I wonder if Wu and Zheng have obtained Song's permission? If they did not get Song's permission, Wu and Zheng's choice to hold an alliance in the "nest" would be provocative.
Too heavy.
Half a month after the spring sowing, the Qin State's envoy bypassed the Han family's territory, followed the Bai Zhai route, and then passed through the Hu family's fiefdom to "Xintian" as an envoy.
In other words, the Qin envoy set off immediately after the ice and snow melted, and it took them three full months to finally reach their destination. Their behavior of avoiding the Han family was too obvious, but it was not clear whether they were worried that the Han family would not allow them to pass, or whether they were worried that the Han family would not allow them to pass.
Worried about being intercepted by the Han family?
The envoy of this envoy from the State of Qin was Zhao Bolu, and the deputy envoy was named Zhao Ji.
It's true that they are all "Zhao", but Zhao Ji is the official clan of Qin State, which is two different elements from Zhao Bolu's "Zhao".
When Han Geng learned that a Qin envoy had arrived at "Xintian", he also learned that the Qin envoy had gone to the palace to meet Jin Junzhe.
"What is the purpose of Qin's move?" Han Geng came to find Zhiyao immediately.
Speaking of which, several generations of Jin kings had the blood of Qin. This was also the case in Qin. The reason was that people with the same surname did not marry, and there were only a few princes with non-Ji surnames who were eligible to marry Jin.
There were even fewer countries, and Jin and Qin had many marriages, so that the idiom "Qin and Jin are good" was left.
Because there is some blood relationship, it is natural for the Qin envoy to visit Jin Jun as soon as they arrive in "Xintian". Under the premise that each has their own needs, maybe some friendly cooperation projects can be achieved.
Zhiyao said: "Three families have sworn an oath, how can the princes not be afraid?"
In fact, Zhiyao took the lead in establishing the alliance. If there were three families that divided Jin in the future, historians would inevitably take the alliance between the three families as the beginning of the split of Jin.
Because Zhiyao took the lead in annihilating more than 30,000 Qin troops, the Han family, which formulated the plan to expand westward, had a good start!
The Han family happened to fail once in the second year, and this year they did not officially send troops to march westward. As a result, the Qin envoy arrived at "Xintian" first.
"What if your Majesty mentions the good things of alliance again?" Han Geng asked.
After all, the Lord of Jin is still the king of a country. As long as he promises something, no matter how strong the Zhi, Wei or Han family are, they can do it in a yin and yang way, but they can't do it directly.
After all, maintaining the dignity of Jin Junzi is to maintain the dignity of the country. The lack of dignity in Jin means that the Zhi, Wei and Han families have no dignity.
Zhiyao hesitated and said, "Isn't that what your Majesty is doing?"
Han Geng said very depressedly: "Geng is leaving Xintian and heading west as soon as possible."
I understand, Han wants to create the established fact as quickly as possible.
Zhiyao asked: "How about I call Xiao to come and ask about the affairs in the palace?"
Han Geng was still hesitating before, but once he made a decision, he looked more courageous and said: "The westward movement has become a fact!"
The Han family finally managed to recruit the Fox family as a thug, and spent almost a year preparing for another western expedition. Even if the chance of trouble happening was extremely small, they were still unwilling to let their preparations go to waste.
Zhiyao had no choice but to say: "If your Majesty sends someone to chase him, he will be behind Geng. The two countries are at war before they can meet."
Han Geng nodded solemnly, bowed and said goodbye.
Subsequently, the development of the situation showed Han Geng's foresight.
The envoy of the State of Qin just wanted to follow the route set by the King of Jin. They would first talk about the beauty of the in-laws of the past generations, and then give out generous gifts. The idea was to take good care of their ministers and don't let them invade Qin again.
To be honest, Jin Junzhe had hardly tasted the sweetness of power after he came to the throne. He finally encountered it once. The more he lacked something, the more eager he was to get it. After being fooled by Zhao Ji for a while, he actually promised to restrain the Han family.
"If I order the Western Expedition to be stopped, will Han Qing obey?" Jin Junzhe regarded Cheng Xiao as his confidant.
Cheng Xiao thought about it seriously and answered honestly: "Maybe the Han family will not allow it?"
Jin Junzhe's eyes widened at first, and then he became discouraged. After being silent for a while, he asked again: "Is it possible to ask the general to pass on the order?"
Why not let Zhishen, who is the "Yuanrong", be dispatched? Is there anyone in Jin who doesn't know that the Zhi family and the person who acts as the "Yuanrong" belong to Zhiyao???
Cheng Xiao thought about it again, nodded and said, "It's feasible."
However, Jin Jun hesitated again. After he hesitated to speak again, he said in a rather depressed tone: "The general will treat me politely. However, I am deeply afraid of the general. I am afraid of him like a tiger, so I dare not speak to him."
Zhiyao would not gossip about trivial matters, and he did not give Jinjun any less preferential treatment. On the contrary, the material supply was extremely sufficient.
However, some people are just like that, they don't blow their beards and stare, they just sit there quietly, but they have a very majestic temperament that makes people feel awe from the bottom of their hearts, and even dare not talk to them.
Of course, power is not obtained out of thin air. It is just that he has done too many things. In addition, the strength in his hands is too strong, creating a halo after another. The more he understands what this person has done and accomplished.
, the sense of awe in your heart will become deeper.
Cheng Xiao said sympathetically: "Who in the world is not afraid of Yao?"
