The death of the crown prince put everyone in the office in danger, and many princes automatically chose to go into exile. Qianmu, the younger brother of the anxious son, fled to Chengzhou, and he later received the support of King Zhuang of Zhou and the second son of the left and right, and returned to Weiguo as the monarch for eight years.

Wei Xuangong couldn't accept the fact that Gongzishou was killed, and soon died. Gongzi Shuo ascended the throne for Wei Huigong. The above is what happened in the twelfth year of Lu Huan.

After the death of the crown prince and Gongzi Shou, the most sad and angry was none other than the second son, and the two swore that they would drive the shameless man Wei Huigong from the throne. But due to the reasons of the Qi people, the second son has never dared to do it.

It turned out that Wei Huigong was still very young when he ascended the throne, with little experience in governing the country, and the ministers were engaged in a non-cooperation movement; He had no choice but to use his original ability to please his father to please the people of Qi State, and Wei Guo has since become a little thug of Qi State. The people of Qi sent a message to the people of the country through a series of actions such as marriage: Wei Houshuo was strongly supported by the people of Qi, and no one was allowed to attack the crooked idea of the little monarch.

Qi Xigong knows the situation of his daughter Xuanjiang and his grandson very well, and he hopes that she can find a backer in Weiguo. Xuan Jiang bluntly said in her reply to her father that she had long been in love with the late prince's cousin Uncle Zhao, but this old-fashioned guy had always been puzzled and avoided her; She hopes that her father can match it to fulfill this beautiful adulterous relationship.

Qi Xigong was so heartbroken by his daughter's affair that he couldn't afford to get sick. He sent an envoy to the country, saying that he was terminally ill (in fact, it was about the same), and asked his daughter to return to China and see him for the last time. Wei Huigong had already colluded with his mother in advance, so he ordered Zhaobo to be responsible for the safety of Xuanjiang's travel to and from Qi State.

After Xuanjiang returned to Linzi, Duke Qi forced Zhao Bo to do incest. But Zhao Bo resisted very resolutely, and the people of Qi got him drunk, and threw him directly on Xuanjiang's bed. The next morning, when Zhao Bo found that the raw rice was ripe, he simply broke the jar and broke it.

The two later had five children, namely Duke Wei Dai, Duke Wei Wen, Duchess Song Huan, Duchess Xu Mu, and Duke Qi Huan's beloved concubine David Ji (the mother of Duke Qi Hui).

After the death of Duke Qi, Duke Wei Hui hugged Duke Qi Xiang's thigh with all his strength and obeyed him. After the Wei army sneaked away from the battlefield of Vazheng, both Lu and Song sent envoys to condemn the treacherous behavior of the Weiguo. Wei Ren has always attached importance to relations with these two countries, and Wei Huigong paid a lot of money to calm the anger of the two countries.

This diplomatic incident made Wei Guo's situation among the princes of the Central Plains extremely embarrassing, and the two princes and doctors thought that they could no longer let this little puppet mess around, otherwise Wei Guo would degenerate into a small follower of Qi State.

In the winter of the sixteenth year of Duke Lu Huan (BC696), the second prince staged a coup d'état to expel Duke Wei Hui, and recalled Gongzi Qianmu from Chengzhou to become the monarch. Wei Huigong fled to the country of Qi.

During the reign of King Huan of Zhou, Ji Hou's daughter Gui was the queen, and Ji Hou's status as the ruler of the country could temporarily protect Ji Guo from the attack of Qi State; Now that King Huan is dead, this umbrella has lost its effect, and Qi Guo has begun to think about attacking Ji Guo again.

Lu Huan decided to use negotiation to resolve the contradictions between Qi and Ji, and in exchange for the support of the Qi people for Lu Guohua Zheng.

In the first month of the seventeenth year of the reign of Emperor Lu Huan (695 BC), the monarchs of Lu, Qi and Ji held the only meeting. Qi Xianggong made a very cooperative gesture, he expressed his desire to develop good bilateral relations with Ji Guo, and thanked Lu Guo for his efforts.

Qi Xianggong also raised the issue of how to deal with the coup d'état of the country, and it seems that he wants to package the issue of Ji Guo and the defense of the country. Although Lu Huan Gong hated Wei Huigong very much, he had to say that as long as Qi Guo supported Lu Guo's position on the issue of Ji Guo and Zheng Guo, Lu Guo would definitely fully cooperate with Qi State to solve the problem of defending the country. After the meeting, the three countries held a bloody ceremony and signed an alliance.

But on the way back to China, Duke Qi told his brother Peng Sheng that he would not even believe the nonsense he said at the league meeting; He will never forgive Ji Guo's crimes, and he doesn't need Lu Guoren to help him solve the problem of defending the country; The so-called book of alliance is just a piece of broken bamboo, and whoever lacks a fire can take it away; Just keep those fools in the dark, they will learn the methods of the Qi people.

In May, a local war broke out between Qi and Lu, and the border forces of Qi suddenly invaded Xiyi of Lu State. Whether this war was intentional or accidental by Qi Xianggong is impossible to verify. The people of Xiyi asked Lu Huan Gong how to deal with it, and Lu Huan Gong replied: "The affairs on the border should be carefully guarded in case of danger; If the enemy invades and resists, why bother to ask the widows? ”

In the second half of this year, another tragedy occurred - Zheng Zhaogong was murdered.

After Zheng Zhaogong was reinstated, he planned to hand over all his power and then go home to retire. It turned out that the sacrificial foot got a lesson from the "Yongjiao Incident": no matter how great the power is, it cannot guarantee its own safety; But if you exit the center of the power struggle, you will instead gain security and praise; And it is certain that Zheng Zhaogong does not resent him, let alone harm him.

But Zhao Gong advised him not to go from one extreme to the other, as if he had deprived a prominent man of his power simply because of resentment and jealousy. Zhao Gong said that he could not govern the entire country by himself; If he returns to the fiefdom to live a life of leisure, there is indeed no one in the country who will disturb him, but the chariots of the princes will definitely level the place where he retreats.

As a result, the priest withdrew his resignation. He still holds a lot of power, but he has become deferential and diligent, and he is no longer as arbitrary as he was during the reign of Li Gong.

Previously, Zheng Zhuanggong led the army to defeat the royal coalition army, and Gao Qu Mili made great contributions. Zheng Zhuanggong wanted to make him a secretary, but the crown prince was resolutely opposed. The crown prince was a stubborn and paranoid person, and he said that Gao Qumi had a sinister and cunning temperament, lived a luxurious and promiscuous life, and such a lowly character was not worthy of such a noble status.

Zheng Zhuanggong thought that the prince's scruples were not a problem, he advised the prince to calm down and have a tolerant heart, and said that the person who is most unworthy of the status of virtue in the world is Zhou Tianzi, you can't drive Zhou Tianzi off the throne, right?

Zhuang Gong did not listen to the prince's advice, and quickly promoted him to a very high position similar to that of the sacrificial foot. Since then, the prince and Gao Qu have formed irreconcilable contradictions.

After the crown prince suddenly ascended the throne, the relationship between the two became more and more stiff. Gao Qumi was afraid that Zhaogong would not be good for him, so he couldn't sleep and eat all the time. He had recently heard that Zheng Zhaocheng was secretly investigating his past crimes and was preparing to dismantle him. So he made up his mind to murder Zhaogong.

Gao Qumi took Wei Xuangong's murder of the anxious son: a group of bribed bandits took advantage of Zhaogong's hunting to kill him. At that time, the sacrificial foot was visiting the Qi country, and Gao Qu Mi set up his son as the king.

In fact, the existing incriminating evidence in Zhaogong's hands was enough to kill Gao Qumi, and the reason why he didn't do it immediately was just because he was indecisive by nature. The son of Lu said: "Gao Qumi is afraid that he will die without a place to be buried!" He took revenge too much! ”

As soon as Gongzi came to power, he sent envoys to various countries, hoping to continue the old friendship with the princes. The princes reacted in mixed ways: the Qi people were noncommittal, and the Lu people showed a cautious welcome (because the Lu people hated Zheng Zhaogong).
