Zang Sunsu had to strengthen his vigilance, except for the previous dynasty, he hid at home and easily did not appear in public. Zang Sunxu's caution made it impossible for Meng Sunqi to find an excuse to attack him for a while. Just when Meng Sunqi was at a loss, Gongmi proposed another insidious plan, which was to completely knock Zang Sunsu into a situation from which he could never recover.

At the beginning of October, the Mengsun clan was going to dig a grave road for Meng Zhuangzi's grave. Meng Xizi asked Zang Sun Su to mobilize a group of soldiers to help him complete the project as soon as possible. Zang Sun Su was the chief secretary at that time, in charge of the dispatch of the main guards on the outskirts of the city (equivalent to the public security joint defense organization). Zang Sunsu didn't think about anything else, and on October 7, Zang Sunsu gathered a group of regular soldiers and ordered them to gather outside the East Gate (Lumen). As the commander of the consul general, he personally arrived at the scene with a guard to inspect the situation.

Since the request was made in private, and Zang Sun Su did not communicate with Ji Wuzi in advance, Ji Wuzi had no idea about this matter. Meng Xizi seized this opportunity, and ran to Ji Wuzi's house in despair, crying: "I want to build a tomb for my late father, but Zang Sun gathered a large number of thugs to block the east gate and stop us from construction!" ”

Ji Wuzi immediately drove to the east gate, and saw a large number of young and middle-aged people gathered outside the door, and people were talking and laughing with shovels, chisels, flat poles and other various "murder weapons" in their hands; Zang Sun Su frowned under the large number of armor soldiers, looking extremely impatient, and he suddenly ordered loudly: "Go and see when the Meng clan will arrive?" ”

The charge was confirmed, Ji Wuzi was furious, and immediately rushed back to order Meng Xizi to gather the clan armor and attack the Zang Sun clan with him. Zang Sun Su waited for Meng Xizi for a long time, but no one came. He secretly screamed: "Oh no, fooled! He immediately ordered the dismissal of the main pawn and prepared to meet Ji Wenzi with the guards. But not long after the team entered the city gate, the private armies of Ji Sun and Meng Sun rushed over, and Zang Sun Su shouted: "Meng Shi hurt me!" Let's run for your life! ”

The team turned and fled, but the sergeant guarding the east gate had received the news and closed the gate. Zang Sun Su was in a hurry, ordered the sergeant to cut off the door bolt, and fled to the country of Yi in a swarm.

Soon after, Ji Wuzi learned the truth, but he didn't say anything, as if nothing had happened.

Later, one of Zang Sunfu's entourage asked: "The truth has been revealed, and the master is innocent." Why didn't Master ask Ji Sun to call us back? ”

Zang Sun Su said: "It's impossible, Ji Sun took the lead in doing this matter, when did he admit his mistake?" "Zang Sun Su stayed in the state of Yi for a few days, and then returned to his fiefdom (fangyi). He must think about the future of the family at this moment: Ji Wuzi drove away his father, so naturally he will not make his son the successor. Zang Sun Su had to choose one of his brothers to inherit the throne.

Zang Sun's family affairs are also a little complicated. Zang Sun Su's father Zang Sun Xu (Zang Xuan Shu) was the first to marry a wife in Zhuguo, and the woman of Zhuguo died after giving birth to Zang Sun Jia and Zang Sun Wei; Zang Sunchen only married Zang Sunsu's mother after that. Because Zang Sun Su had Mu Jiang's support behind him, he was made a son-in-law by his father, and the two elder brothers returned to Zhuguo after they became adults.

Zang Sun Su then sent someone to Zhuguo to see Zang Sun Jia, presented him with the ancestral "Da Cai" turtle, and said: "I have no ability, I have lost the temple, how dare I not report to my brother?" But my sin is not enough to cut off the sacrifice, my brother bribed Ji Sun with Da Cai, and he can return to Lu to continue the sacrifice to his ancestors. ”

Zang Sun Jia said again: "This is a family dispute, not your sin. I hear your orders. He accepted Da Cai Gui, and then summoned his brother Zang Sunwei and asked him to take Da Cai and replace him to see Ji Wenzi.

Zang Sunwei accepted the task and set off the next day. But before entering Qufu, his retainers said: "Although Jia is old, now he is a world of 'looking at talents'. The Master's talent is higher than Jia's, so why don't you ask for yourself? This is more beneficial to Zang's! ”

Zang Sunwei said: "Yes, my inheritance of the Zang family is not only more beneficial to the family, but also caters to the trend!" As a result, he asked Ji Wuzi to make himself his successor.

Zang Sunfu's envoy also arrived, and the envoy said to Ji Wuzi: "I never thought of harming the office, but I lack wisdom. I asked my master to order the Zang clan to be established, not for myself, but for the sake of the family. If the Zang clan keeps the sacrifice, and does not abandon the old orders of Wen Zhong and Uncle Xuan, how dare I cut off the defense and make the office an enemy? ”

Uncle Sun Leopard (who has returned triumphantly) persuaded Ji Wuzi to say: "The crimes of the Zang clan are not as good as the Dongmen clan (Dongmen Xiangzhong killed the two sons of Lu Wengong and established Lu Xuangong), and the Dongmen clan is still behind the Lu country, not to mention the Zang clan?" ”

Ji Wuzi felt a loss in his heart, he made Zang Sun the patriarch, and informed Zang Sun Su of the results. Zang Sun Su returned the defense to the office, and then fled to the Qi State. Before he left, the Fangyi people asked, "Do you need to hold a blood ceremony with us?" ”

Zang Sun Su said: "No, you should do your best to serve the new master!" I don't have anything else to say. ”

After Zang Sun ascended to the throne, Ji Wuzi was ready to sign an alliance with him to restrain his actions. Ji Wuzi asked the official in charge of the history of the exiles how the previous covenants were written.

The official said: "Back then, the Gongsun Guisheng (the son of Dongmen Xiangzhong) said: 'Don't be like Dongmen Sui who disrespects the public order and kills his concubine. Uncle Sun Bao said: "Don't be like Uncle Sun Qiaoru who wants to abolish the country and overthrow the office." ’”

Ji Wuzi said: "Zang Sun's sin is not as serious as theirs. ”

Meng Jiao, a cousin of Meng Xizi, said: "How about using 'breaking the door'? ”

Ji Wuzi smiled dumbly and said: "This is a bit interesting, but why did he 'break the door'?" Everyone in the room laughed. So Ji Wuzi wrote on the covenant: "Don't be like Zang Sunsu who interferes with the discipline of the country and violates the door." ”

Zang Sunsu later heard the news and said: "Lu has talents!" Whose idea was it? It's Meng Jiao, right? ”

The Duke of Qi Zhuang held a grand welcome ceremony for the arrival of Zang Sun Su, and he said at the banquet: "The ancestor once surrounded the defense in order to get the master (the seventeenth year of Lu Xianggong), but the result was still not as desired. And the Master took the initiative to come to our country today, which is really a great blessing for the Qi country! ”

A few days later, Duke Qi Zhuang planned to give Zang Sun Su a piece of land. However, Zang Sun Su expected that the Duke of Qi Zhuang would suffer (for the same reasons as Yan Zi and Cui Zhu), so he did not want to have an interest relationship with him, so as not to be retaliated against by the future new monarch. He went to see the Duke of Qi Zhuang and talked to him about the Jin.

Zang Sun Su made a start, and Qi Zhuanggong danced with his eyebrows and continued to talk. He regarded the Jin Dynasty as a miracle that no one had ever done before; He said that except for the Taigong and the Huan Gong, there was no monarch in the Qi Kingdom whose merits could be compared with him. Qi Zhuang Gong said to himself for half an hour, and then stopped, ready to enjoy Zang Sun Su's compliment.

Zang Sun Su said: "The merits are outstanding, but the prince is like a mouse." Rats come out day and night, and because they are afraid of people, they dare not dig holes in the temple. Now that the prince and marquis know that there is a civil strife in the Jin Kingdom before they dare to start a war, what is the difference between him and a mouse? ”

Gong Qi Zhuang was displeased, and immediately dispelled the idea of rewarding Zang Sun Su.

After reading this history, Confucius said, "The wise have problems that cannot be solved. With Zang Wuzhong's wisdom, there is a reason why he cannot be accommodated by the Lu State. He did what he shouldn't have done, and he couldn't get forgiveness from Gongmi, that's why he ended up like this. The Book of Summer says: 'Nian Zi is here. It is to tell the world not to be clever, but to follow the trend. ”
