Since Bai Di was closer to the Liang Kingdom, the envoy Tu Anyi sent by Rick was the first to see Chong'er. Chong'er received him in mourning clothes and with a sad face. After Tu Anyi made a request on behalf of Rick, Chong'er's eyes wandered and his heart hesitated; He asked the messenger to wait a moment, and then retreated to the backrooms to ask for the Fox's opinion.

Hu Yan said: "The solidity of the big tree lies in the fundamentals, and if it is not solid at all, the main trunk will be unstable, and if the main trunk is unstable, it will surely fall." Childe has never been a prince, nor is he the eldest of the sons; It is not the closest to the Jin Kingdom, and there is no big force to support it. Before the first prince entered the ground, the prince was eager to return to the country to seize the throne, which was equivalent to a tree without roots, and he would inevitably not be able to get his wish, but would give people the handle of crusade. So I think it's better to stay on the periphery and wait and see what happens. ”

Chong'er said: "The doctors have an appointment: 'The one who enters the country first is the king', if I am ahead of the princes, can't I also become the son of the Jin Kingdom?" ”

Hu Yan said: "The two ministers of Qi have never had a disagreement over the choice of the monarch; On the other hand, in the Jin office, Xun Xi was martyred, Rick and Lu nephew quarreled endlessly, Pi Zheng forgot his righteousness, all the doctors had their own hearts, and no one could control the situation. Other sons can sell their country for reinforcements, but can they do it? Even if Gongzi can do it, can Bai Di defeat the Qin State? ”

Chong'er finally died of this heart, and he went out to refuse the good intentions of the envoy, and then stomped his feet, crying and retreating.

On the other hand, Pucheng, the envoy of Lu nephew, came to Liang at midnight and asked Yiwu to return to China to succeed him.

Yiwu asked for Yin Rui's opinion, and Yin Rui said, "Childe should work hard!" The country is in chaos, the people are troubled, and the doctors are impermanent, and this is a good opportunity arranged by God and must not be lost. Who will restore order without chaos? Who can bring tranquility without danger? You should be glad that you are the son of the first monarch, so you have become the most needed person in the Jin Kingdom now. Gongzi now needs to promise heavy bribes to the Qin people to seek the throne, and then consider how to fulfill his promise when he returns to China. ”

Yigo changed into mourning clothes and happily returned to the main hall, agreeing to the other party's request.

Rick set up the table, prepared the table and chairs, and sent out invitations; Just as the spectators were about to enter, the protagonist brought a message saying that he would not act in the play. Annoyed, Rick decides to keep it a secret, and he is still preparing for his return home; He really had no choice but to numb himself with this self-deception.

On the other hand, Lu Nephew also hid the truth from Rick, and the two sides began to play the trick of "you guess, you guess, you can't guess". Until one day, Pi Zheng reminded Rick that he thought Chong'er did not dare to return to China because he was afraid that the Qin people would support Yiwu; But now it seems that the people of Qin are also hesitating and choosing. But the situation is becoming more and more unfavorable for Rick, and they should also seek the support of the Qin people, and if they succeed, Chong'er will definitely ascend to the throne. Only then did Rick send Tu Anyi to the Qin State.

Tu Anyi met Pu Chengwu in Qin, so that the hole cards of both sides were exposed to each other at the same time.

Since the two factions could no longer pretend, the doctors gathered together again calmly. Lu nephew said: "The country will inevitably be coveted by the princes after a long time, and the people of Qi have gathered a large army to drive towards the Jin State!" If the people of the Jin Kingdom really can't choose their own monarch, then let the people of the Qin State decide!

"At least Uncle Qin is still the son-in-law of the first prince and the brother-in-law of the sons. And the only grandson of the Marquis of Qi has committed suicide, and he must have hated the people of the Jin Kingdom; God knows what kind of disaster Qi Hou will bring to the country! If there is still anyone who opposes it, then kill me first, and then destroy your own country! ”

The great crisis filled everyone's hearts with tragic emotions, and the two factions reached an agreement with rare speed, and elected a doctor who could be trusted by both sides, Liang Youmi, as an envoy to rush to Qin day and night.

Liang Youmi saw Qin Mugong and said: "Heaven sent disaster to the Jin Kingdom, causing evil rumors to spread everywhere (referring to Shi Su's divination for Jin Xiangong Liji for his wife), so that it even affected many sons, causing them to flee to death in all directions, parasitic between the grass, and Rongdi tigers and leopards. Now that the widow has died, the troubles have not subsided. Qin is a great country, Qin Jun is virtuous, relying on the virtues of Qin Jun, the ghosts and gods finally blessed the Jin Kingdom, so that the sinners can be ambushed, but the doctors dare not feel at ease, waiting for your order to support the new king.

"If you are concerned about the old friendship with the ancestors of the Jin Kingdom, please deign to accept the exiled prince, and make him the monarch of the Jin Kingdom, so that he can preside over the society and protect the people. When the princes of the four directions hear of your merits, which one will not be in awe of your prestige and embrace your virtues? Who in the Jin Kingdom would dare not to be your subordinate servant? ”

Qin Mugong appeased the envoy of the Jin State and asked him to go back and tell the office doctor, saying that the Qin State would definitely give the Jin people a satisfactory answer.

Since Pu Chengwu's secret visit to the Qin State, Qin Mugong has been entangled in his heart about the candidate for the new monarch of the Jin State. The brutal expansion of the Jin state frightened the Qin people, and he wanted to choose a less tough prince, someone who was friendly to the Qin state and would not cause trouble to the country.

After sending Liang Youmi away, Qin Mugong summoned the doctor Bailishi and Gongsun Zhi, but neither of them dared to draw conclusions about the selection of the new monarch, but unanimously recommended that the doctor Gongzi Zhi should visit Chong'er and Yiwu as an envoy, and take Gongzi Zhi's words as the final opinion.

Gongzi Zhi first crossed the Yellow River to see Chong'er, and he said, "The widow sent me to comfort Gongzi and mourn the ancestors. The widow heard: 'Gaining a country is often mourning, and losing a country is often mourning; The opportunity cannot be lost, and the loss cannot be long. 'If Childe has any plans, the widow can help. ”

Chong'er asked Gongzi Zhi to wait, he returned to the side room and relayed Gongzizhi's words to Hu Yan, and asked, if there is the support of the Qin State, can they return to China safely?

Hu Yan said: "No, the exiles have no one to attach themselves to, but only to the benevolence and faith; Only then can you settle on the throne and stay away from calamity. Seeking personal gain through the death of one's father cannot be called 'benevolence', and there are many sons who are qualified to inherit the throne, and snatching the throne by luck cannot be called 'faith'. Without benevolence and faith, who can support Gongzi? How can it last long if no one supports it? ”

Chong'er returned to the main hall and said, "Thank you to the Lord for consoling me, an exile, and for granting you your life." But when his father died, he could not go to the spirit to pay respects; How dare you move evil thoughts and bring shame on the kindness of the king? After saying that, he bowed his head and cried and retreated. And until Gongzi Zhi left, Chong'er didn't talk to him privately for a moment, but asked Zhao Yu to give him some gifts that were not valuable.
