Some people were able to escape, and people pleaded bitterly for the dedication, "What crime have we committed?" To be punished so cruelly? Wouldn't they all be killed if they didn't wait for the Si Ko to find out the charges? ”

But no amount of pleading and misery could soften his iron-clad heart, and he said, "If you live, you will sin sooner or later; Of course, the same is true for widows. "As soon as the soldiers swarmed up, they killed the supplicants.

Some of the victims put up a desperate resistance, and although they also killed many soldiers, they were quickly eliminated. The soldiers began to search for the hideouts, who were basically women and children.

The soldiers who were loyal to the order gritted their teeth and killed them, trying to make their death as painful as possible; Kind people simply pretend not to see it; Wicked people not only kill any woman or child, but also take valuable ornaments and, even worse, desecrate corpses.

After the killing, Xiangong burned the new city to the ground. The raging fire reflected the cloudy sky, and it seemed that it was the heavens that sent a sin to the Jin people to make it burn. The whimpering north wind stirred up violent flames, and it seemed that countless unjust spirits rose with the flames, hovering and wailing in the night sky.

The slayer completed his mission, wiped the blood from his weapon, and returned to Jin Xiangong. Officials of the Sima Department methodically counted the heads of high-ranking nobles and the left ears (some of which had pierced ears) cut off from the heads of other victims, and prepared to reward the murderers for their merits.

Jin Xian Gongzhi proudly took one last look at the city of fire, and then ordered the city gate to be sealed, and rushed back to Jiangdu overnight.

This massacre of extermination shocked the whole world, and people called Jin Xiangong "the beast of Taihang Mountain". Gong Chou began to jump up and down in front of King Zhou Hui again, demanding that Jin Xiangong be brought to justice.

King Zhou Hui said: "The incident has not yet been clarified, and we cannot draw conclusions. It's better to listen to how the Jin people justify. He then sent a delegation to the Jin state to strongly condemn the brutal acts of the Jin Xiangong.

Jin Xiangong sent Shi Bao to make a defense. Shi Bao said: "When the You family and the group of sons destroyed the Fu family, no one came to condemn it; When the princes destroyed the You clan, no one came to condemn them; When the widow crusaded against the rebellious ministers and thieves, you came to condemn it! Qun Gongzi is the culprit who killed the Fu family and the You family, they ignored the king's orders and killed the ministers, they had already committed an unforgivable crime, is it still wrong for the widow to crusade against the sinners?

"What country does not have rebels and thieves? The state called for the killing of Duke Wei Huan, the son of Hui killed Duke Lu Yin, and the Duke of Hua killed Duke Min of Song; Their crimes are even more serious than those of the sons of the Jin Kingdom! Those rebellious ministers and thieves violated the etiquette system, disturbed the country, shook the office, and made the princes and doctors feel thieves, did the royal family condemn them?

"Zheng Zhuang Gong asked for Uncle Duan, Wei Shijie killed Wei Zhou, and Qi Xiaobai killed Gongzi; Has the royal family condemned them again? Neither do you! The crusade against the unsubordinate is the common mandate granted by the Son of Heaven to the princes, and this is exactly what the widow is doing! Why do you condemn the widows?

"Isn't he a villain who killed his half-brother and forcibly took his room? He has always hated the Jin Kingdom, so he colluded with my country's clan to cause trouble in the country. His conspiracy was revealed, so the wicked people above the royal court sued first, and he reversed black and white to attack our country and slander the widow, how can the words of the villain still be believed? And the Son of Heaven was deceived by him! That's just the way it is. Who is the rebel of the royal family, please think carefully before condemning it! ”

The envoys were speechless, and the scene became extremely embarrassing. Jin Xiangong appeared at the right time, he smiled all over his face, and announced the start of the banquet. The Jin people were hospitable to the envoys, and gave them extremely valuable gifts, and those people received the benefits of offering their fathers, and when they returned, they spoke for the Jin kingdom.

Jin Xiangong finally firmly controlled the power of the office, but the civil strife did not end. If the previous turmoil is to blame for the ambitious prince, then the responsibility for the future will need to be borne by the deaf and brutal monarch.

A few years ago, when the trend of Quwo's extinction had been formed, Duke Qi Huan married one of Duke Qi's princesses to Quwobo, which was regarded as a recognition of Quwo's regime and an investment in the future of the Jin Kingdom.

But Jin Wugong didn't live long. Qi Jiang's purpose in marrying into the Jin Kingdom was to be a wife, to make his descendants become the Marquis of Jin, not to be a widow and give the rest of his life to some mistress.

Qi Jiang hooked up with Jin Xiangong, and soon developed into a naked mother-son relationship. Qi Jiang later gave birth to two children: the eldest daughter, the Duke of Qin Mu, and the eldest son, the crown prince Shensheng.

Xiangong married a wife in Jia again, but Jia Ji never had children; Xiangong married the daughter of the fox tu, the big fox Ji, and the big fox Ji gave birth to a son, Chong'er; married Xiao Rongzi again and gave birth to a son, Yiwu; After Jin destroyed Lirong, Jin Xiangong got the Li Ji sisters again, and the sisters gave birth to Xi Qi and Zhuo Zi respectively.

Qi Jiang grew up in the big country mansion since she was a child, received a strict aristocratic education, and was also doted on by her parents in every way, she has a strong personality and does not know how to compromise, and never rubs sand in her eyes. She resolutely stood on the side of Jin Xiangong when there was civil strife in the office, and won many high-ranking doctors for Xiangong through her wife's diplomacy.

Jin Xiangong once drank too much and sighed: "Jiang is a good couple given by God to the widow, she knows that the widow will die if he loses, but she still assists the widow to fight against the rebellious ministers, and is the closest person to the widow." The widow will live up to the Jiang family in this life, only what the Jiang family wants. Therefore, in addition to love, Xiangong Qi Jiang also has loyalty, trust, and gratitude.

But when he got Li Ji and was seduced by a group of courtiers, he abandoned his promise. Because the relationship between the wife and concubine of the harem is extremely complicated, he is also an inattentive, new and disgusting person, ruthless and unrighteous; And since he had eliminated the enemies in the country, the ensuing internal struggle took place between his wives and concubines, sons, and close ministers.

It is precisely because of his marriage, blood and other close ties with those people that the subsequent struggle is particularly cruel.
