Chapter Ninety-Seven: Taking Refuge

The time is also, the momentum is also.

In terms of debate, these nobles sent by them could not win the argument; In terms of numbers, under the will of human equality, those who were not originally human have also become human beings; In terms of incitement, these aristocratic slogans talk about virtue but ignore profit, and instead satirize that profit-seekers are villains; In terms of planning, the Mo family itself is to divide the world into nobles and commoners, and the more trouble it makes, the more obvious the rift.

Under Wei Rang's excuse, the initiative of the scene has been completely controlled by those hidden ink makers, and the people's grievances began to brew and vent, and in the end the general trend has been achieved.

The crowd decided to slightly revise the thunderous declarations that Wei Rang had said, and established them as a constitutional outline.

and decided that all the nobles in Fei must go to the capital within a month and swear to approve this constitution, and then the people in the capital on the surface took a step back: as long as the nobles came to the capital to recognize this constitution, then the specific decree could be slowly negotiated as long as the constitution was under the standard of good and evil.

In fact, this is to seal off all the retreats of the aristocracy, and once this constitutional program is recognized, then it is inevitable that things such as granting land and dividing land and abolishing feudal obligations will be inevitable, otherwise everyone can rule that those laws are not in accordance with the constitution and are invalid.

After a day of controversy, the news quickly spread through the streets of the capital city.

The nobles of Fei who were detained and placed under house arrest in the capital immediately began to conspire and conspire, and after the nobles gathered in groups of three or five by their own means, they first routinely cursed the untouchables for profit, and then began to discuss what to do.

"If wood has no roots, it will wither, and if there is no source of water, it will dry up. We cannot agree to this constitution under any circumstances. The month period will not be delayed any longer. What's going on out there? ”

These nobles have connections with the outside, but they can't escape the capital, because if they fail to escape, they will face death, so they can't run until they have to.

Now is the last resort.

One person said: "Gongzi is still in Wucheng, why don't we push Gongzi to be the king, rebuke the capital as a rebellion, raise troops to punish Gongziluan for righteousness, and invite Qi and Wei soldiers to help, how about it?" ”

The nobleman who had just inquired about the situation outside immediately shook his head and objected: "The matter has come to this point, and you can't push Gongzi to be the king." The common people have risen up, and there are those who know how to rule them...... I'm afraid we won't be able to win. ”

"Besides, what is the price for Qi and Wei to send troops to help? How are they willing to send troops? When the time comes, whose fief will be cut off as a bribe? ”

Speaking of specific practical benefits, the nobles who wanted to push the children of the palace out were immediately speechless.

The veto man whispered: "It's better to follow the Gongsun Hui of Qi and the Qu Yi of Chu!" ”

The nobles were stunned, and Xuanji understood the key and applauded.

The Gongsun of Qi would rebel, knowing that he could not succeed, attached his fief to Zhao and announced that he would surrender to Zhao in order to let the Three Jin Dynasty send troops.

After the Three Jin Dynasty sent troops, Qu Yijiao was still the lord of the fief of Xiaqiu, but he was replaced by a monarch who fulfilled his feudal obligations.

The state of Chu was to blame, because he opposed a series of centralized reforms carried out by the king of Chu, and threw his fief into South Korea together, and as a doctor in Korea, his own interests were not touched at all.

Under the feudal system, if there is no master here, the master will take the land to the enemy country, which is a common thing, and no one thinks there is anything wrong with this.

On the contrary, they all figured out the benefits of doing so.

If it is just to push Gongzi to be the king, it will be just a civil strife in the Fei country, and even if Qi and Wei send troops, they will only help, at most they will cede one or two cities as a thank you gift, and who to cede is probably also a question: everyone contributes to this matter, why cede me?

Moreover, Qi and Wei may not bother, they may also have to worry about encountering resistance, and they may not send troops after weighing their interests.

But if you follow the example of Gongsun Hui to vote for Jin and Qu Yi to vote for Han, Gongzi Fang will naturally not be able to become a monarch, but these nobles with fiefs are still nobles.

There is no difference between being a nobleman in the country of Qi and being a nobleman in the country of Fei, only the monarch cares about the difference.

In this way, it is equivalent to increasing the land for Qi and Wei, and the interference of Qi and Wei is justified.

Originally, as a vassal state divided by Lu State, Fei State should be the first time to consider Lu State, but Lu State is too weak, and they feel that they may not be able to succeed if they take refuge in a weak country, and they will not be weak once and for all.

Moreover, because of the most important thing of the Qi State a few years ago, the Lu State is also a non-attacking alliance country, and they defect to the Lu State, I am afraid that it will cause the dissatisfaction of the Mo family, and the monarch of the Lu State may not be willing to want this hot land.

The relationship between the Chu State and the Mo familyThe nobles of these small countries have little reading, and they can't understand the situation at all, so they can only subconsciously think that the Chu State and the Mo family are allied.

And the Yue country completely lost its hegemony in Huaibei Si after the battle of Huangshui, and it was also unwise to take refuge in the Yue country.

Only Qi and Wei are left to take refuge.

At this time, a nobleman said: "It's just that at this time, the prince is placed in Wucheng, but I'm afraid that he won't be able to agree to our matter of throwing land into Qi and Wei." He is now reprimanding Gongzi Luan for committing rebellion, and wants to summon all the doctors for righteousness. ”

The man who proposed to take refuge in Qi Wei stretched out his hand, made a gesture of cutting off his head, and said: "The matter has come to this, and the son should be killed." can be blamed on Gongzi Luan. If Gongzi is righteous, how can we vote for Qiwei? If you don't vote for Qi Wei, it will be difficult to protect the sacrifice. ”

"Cast in Qi Wei, we can still be doctors. If Gongzi raises a rebellion, once defeated, we will be killed by the mob of the capital. As for the oath to recognize the Constitution, it is even more impossible. ”

"But Yin sent people to Qi and Wei. A month later, Gongzi Fangdang died in the mob assassination, and we threw myself into Qi Wei to avenge Gongzifang. ”

When the crowd was praised, the man said, "Now that we are trapped in the capital, it is time to pretend that we are willing to swear an oath to the constitution, and when the time is ripe, we will escape." Gather the troops of the fiefdom and gather in Wucheng to surrender to Qi Wei. ”

…………

Qi country, Linzi.

At this time, four years have passed since Tian He was established as a marquis, but if it is counted from the farce on the streets of Linzi that year, the exile of Qi Hou from the name of Baomin, the time is longer.

Tian He is already old, and he knows that he may not survive for a few years, but fortunately he seems to be able to survive his brother.

The Tian family started from Tian Chengzi, the source of the idiom "thief of the country", and relied on family reproduction, accepting concubines, and not banning guests to seek the Qi country as long as the nominal son.

It's probably Tian Chengzi who can't keep himself busy.

This method combined with the sub-feudal system laid the foundation for the Tian dynasty of Qi, and in the early years, nine-tenths of the fiefdom cities of the Qi state were attributed to the descendants of the Tian family.

But this also made the internal struggle within the Tian family not stop. In the rebellion of Gongsun Sun, Gongsun Hui, and Xiang Ziniu, Tian and Tian Hao brothers worked together and finally won the final victory.

The result of this victory is that the contradictions between the two brothers are rising day by day, but they have just replaced Jiang Qi, and they can't turn their faces at this time.

Tian He already has a rather intelligent son named Tian Wu.

Tian Hao naturally also has a son, named Tian Yan.

Tian Hao's power is huge, no less than Tian He, when the State of Chu came to ask the State of Qi to send troops to rescue the Great Liang Yuguan, the envoy looked for Tian Hao instead of Tian He.

Although it is now Tian He to be the Marquis of Qi, it is only a balance of the respective forces of the two brothers, and the next Marquis of Qi should be Tian Yan's turn, which is an agreed matter.

In the history of later generations, there is no record of Tian Hao and Tian Yan in the "Historical Records", because Tian He and Tian Wu completely wiped out the reality of that father and son, as if these two people did not exist in Qi at all.

However, in the records of the Chu State and the bamboo books of the Wei State, the father and son cannot be bypassed, and under the mutual corroboration, it is conceivable how Tian Wutian and Tian He obtained the power.

It is precisely for this reason that the five kingdoms attacked Qi after Tian Wu killed the monarch, because it involved the internal dispute of the Qi State, so that the Qi State after Tian Wu killed the monarch was only afraid of being no less weak than his father's grandson Gongsun Gongsun Hui Xiang Ziniu Rebellion, which made small countries like Weiguo participate in the war against Qi.

Tian Wu, who was called Huan Gong in later generations, left an allusion to avoiding illness and avoiding medicine, founded the Jixia School Palace, and sought legitimacy for himself with the theory of five virtues, is fifteen years old this year.

Now, as a conspirator, he is still young and his strength is not enough.

The power left by Uncle Qi's Tian Hao is still big enough.

At this time, Tian He, who was the Marquis of Qi, had accumulated enough advantages, because the battle of the most defeated a few years ago was commanded by his brother Tian Hao, a big defeat, and Tian He still had to thank the Mo family for the blow back then.

Although in addition to the defeat in the Battle of the Worst, the Qi State has been stable in recent years, and Jiang Qi was deposed, because he had already cut the wings loyal to Jiang Qi, so he did not make any waves at all, of course, the contempt of the people of the Qi State for the Mandate of Heaven and bloodline was also the reason why there was no large-scale turmoil.

However, Qi was still not a strong country at this time.

In terms of volume, it can also be ranked among the princes of the world.

Compared with Han Zhao Wei who was separated from the Jin Dynasty, and compared to Qin, who had already begun to change the law, the Qi of the Tian clan can only be regarded as a weak country now.

Originally, Tian Qi's strength was until the time of King Qi Wei, the son of Tian Wu.

In legal theory, Jixia Xuegong explained the legitimacy of Dai Qi with the theory of five virtues, the internal centralized power reform, and the killing of some doctors, and the external Sun Bin led the reform of the military system to replace the archers with crossbows, etc., so that the king of Xuzhou became a powerful country in the world.

But now, the family flow that relied on blood fate back then occupied most of the land of Qi State.

When the Tian family, who was originally a "minister", became a "king", the troubles of this family division also appeared.

Tian Chengzi did not support the sub-feudal system back then, and if he did not have a wide range of heirs, it would be impossible to succeed; But when the Tian family himself became the monarch, he would inevitably oppose the feudal system and the division of power among the nobles.

Looking at the country of Qi, they are all relatives; Look around the four realms, fiefdoms everywhere.

Relying on the extensive division of the family to obtain the position of Marquis of Qi, he had to bear the backlash of the family's division and the inability to centralize power.

At this moment, Tian He needs a victory, a victory that accumulates enough prestige to pave the way for his son to change, centralize power, and take out the remnants of his nephew and brother.

Under the feudal system, the monarch who did not have a big country did not want to centralize power, and there was only the difference between what he did and what he did not.

The Tian family was able to use a hundred years to seek the Qi State, and Tian He was naturally willing to pave the way for his son for a longer time, completely defeat his brother, complete the centralization of power, and make the Qi State a great power in the world.

Under this mentality, when the secret envoy of the Fei nobles came to Linzi, Tian He was sure that his opportunity had come, and he could do a big thing for his son before he died.
