On November 10, the princes of the Twelve Kingdoms held an alliance meeting with Zheng Ren in Xi (present-day Dengfengbei, Henan). Zheng Guo's team is of high standard and large number: Zheng Jiangong and Liuqing, Gongzi Yan, Gongzi Fa, Gongzi Jia, Gongsun Yu, Gongsun Shezhi and their eldest sons and doctors all attended the alliance. At this time, if the Jin people put the Zheng State mission in one pot, the Zheng State would be destroyed.

Shi Kuo took out the book prepared by the people of the Jin Kingdom and read it to the people attending the blood ceremony: "After the alliance today, if Zheng Guo does not only listen to the orders of the Jin Kingdom, but has two hearts, let the heavens send disaster to Zheng Guo!" ”

Gongzi suddenly walked in front of him from the queue and said, "Heaven has already begun to bring disaster to Zheng Guo!" That's why Zheng Guo lived between Jin and Chu. The great powers blindly threatened by force instead of virtue, so that the ghosts of Zheng Guo were annihilated without sacrifices, so that the people of Zheng Guo could not harvest food from the land, and the husband and wife were poor and weak but had nowhere to accuse; This is to destroy Zheng Guo! Therefore, the book cannot be written like this, but should be changed to 'Since today's alliance, if Zheng Guo is not only courteous and strong, but also able to protect the people, let God punish Zheng Guo!'" ’”

The Bank of China was furious and stood up and said to Gongzi: "No! Change your covenants! ”

Gongsun Shezhi walked out of the ranks again and said: "The book of our country has been read to the gods of the ancestors in the ancestral temple, and the heavens, the gods and the ancestors have already heard the contents, so they cannot be changed. If the gods can deceive, then the great powers can also betray! ”

The Zheng people refused to back down, and the Jin people did not give in, and both sides were eyeing each other, and they both put on a posture of blood spattering five steps and solving it by force. Due to this sudden incident, it is estimated that today's blood ceremony will not be able to continue.

The old and dignified Zhigang finally spoke, and he said to the Bank of China: "Our country really has no virtue, but it is really rude to threaten the princes to form an alliance by force!" Indecent assault, how to lead the alliance? It is better to revise our covenant and make this covenant first. After we return to China to establish virtue and cultivate people's livelihood, we will eventually get Zheng Guo, so why bother only asking for today? If we have no virtue, we will be abandoned by all the princes of the world, is it just a country? If we have virtue, the remote people will also come to join us, are we still afraid that Zheng Guo will not come? ”

As a result, the alliance meeting adopted the alliance provided by Zheng Ren.

After the liehou returned to China, the Jin people summoned the Zheng people to attend an alliance meeting. Zisi said, "If a woman is still from the beginning, how much more is the state?" Zheng Guo's two or three virtues, is it our own problem? Zhibo said it well, Zheng Guo's illness is due to Jin Chu. Jin Chu does not decide whether he wins or loses, and Zheng Guo will always be in this state. So, let's create an opportunity for the two countries to have a big fight! The Jin Kingdom will definitely achieve the final victory, and then we will follow the winner, and we can keep the Zheng Kingdom safe for ten years. ”

Zheng Ren deliberately neglected the Jin envoy, and the Jin envoy was angry, and after returning to China, he sued Zheng Ren fiercely. In the winter of December, the Duke of Jin Mourning once again gathered the divisions of several countries to besiege Xinzheng. But the invasion was more symbolic than practical: the army was small, the offensive was not violent, and the siege was lifted in a few days.

When the coalition forces retreated, Gongzijia said, "We can pursue the Jin division." The Jin division is tired and anxious to return to China, and the pursuit of the Jin division will surely lead to a great victory. ”

Gongsun Shezhi said: "One day wins, and after several years, you can't pursue it." ”

When Lu Xianggong returned to China with the army, Jin Mourning Gong sent him to the Yellow River crossing. Jin Mourning Gong asked Lu Xianggong's age, and Ji Wuzi said: The princes will be born in the year of Shasui (in the sixteenth year of Lu Chenggong, the Duke of Jin Li summoned the princes to meet in Shasui after the victory of Yanling). ”

Jin Mourning Gong said: "Twelve years old! This is known as the end of the year (the year star is Jupiter, Jupiter orbits the sky for 12 years, and the ancients used Jupiter to record the year). At the age of fifteen, the king can marry and have children, and after the crowning ceremony, he can get married. The prince can perform the crown ceremony, why don't the doctors prepare ritual utensils for the prince? ”

Ji Wuzi said: "The monarch's crown ceremony must be held to bare and enjoy, and accompanied by the music of gold and stone, in the ancestral temple. Now the widow is in the army, and there is no equipment to prepare. Therefore, please bow in fraternal countries. ”

Jin Mourning Gong said: "The widow has heard the words of the master. ”

The monarchs of the two countries returned to their respective countries, and Lu Xianggong borrowed musical instruments from the patriots when he passed through the country, and held a crown ceremony in the temple of Wei Chenggong.

Zheng Guoren encountered two major wars in a year, their homes were ruined, the people were exhausted, and all kinds of ruins were waiting to be rebuilt, and the people were going through a sad and painful year. But the disaster was still not over, and at the end of the year, the Chu army, under the leadership of the king of Chu, came to Xinzheng with great vigor - the people of Chu came to investigate the responsibility of the alliance between Zheng and Jin.

Gongzi ordered peace with the state of Chu. Gongzi Jia and Gongsun Yu said: "Just formed an alliance with a big country, and broke the alliance before the blood was dry, is this good? ”

Gongzi and Gongsun Shezhi said: "The book of the alliance says, 'Only the strong obey.'" 'Now that Chu Shi is attacking Zheng, and the Jin State is not saved, it is the Chu State that is strong. How dare you break the promise in the covenant? Besides, how can the covenant signed by being coerced have credibility? Without credit, the gods will not come, and the ghosts and gods will only come by faith. Credit, is the word of honesty and the Lord of goodness, an oath without credit is unholy, the gods will not bless unclean oaths, and it is okay to betray the covenant. ”

So the two countries formed an alliance in Xinzheng. But this time, the alliance also encountered the same problem in the drama league, and the two sides quarreled over some content. At this time, the king of Chu received the news of his mother's death, and as a result, the two sides hastily signed an alliance, and the Chu army quickly returned to China.
