Due to the strong stimulation, the condition of the uncle and grandson leopard worsened in vain, and for a while he could not even speak.

After the death of Uncle Sun Bing, Uncle Sun Ren is the most likely to become the heir. Zhuniu told Uncle Sun Ren what he said to Uncle Sun Bing, and put the responsibility for Uncle Sun Bing's killing on Uncle Sun Yan. But Uncle Sun Ren, like his brother, did not believe his nonsense. As a result, Shusun Ren became the next target to be eliminated by the vertical bull.

Uncle Sun Ren had a very good personal relationship with Lu Zhaogong's Yushilaishu. One day, Uncle Sun Ren went to the palace at the invitation of Lai Shu, and Lu Zhaogong rewarded Uncle Sun Ren with a jade ring. Uncle Sun Ren didn't dare to make his own decisions, and when he returned home, he asked Uncle Sun Leopard if he could wear it - in fact, this was to ask Uncle Sun Leopard if he made himself his heir. Like the last time he dealt with Shusun Bing, the vertical bull pretended to go in and turn around with the jade ring, and when he came out, he told Shusun Ren that Shusun Leopard had allowed him to wear it.

When Uncle Sun Ren put the beautiful jade on his body, Zhu Niu pretended to know nothing and went to see Uncle Sun Leopard and said, "It's really strange, did you send Ren to see the monarch?" What did he do when he entered the palace? ”

At this time, the uncle and grandson leopard regained the function of speech, and he asked Zhu Niu what he meant by that sentence.

Zhu Niu said: "Ren hurried to the palace early in the morning, and the monarch gave him a jade ring, which he had already put on. You know, a monarch doesn't reward a concubine; So before his father could canonize him, he ran into the palace as the heir to flatter the prince, and when he left the palace, he began to swagger through the market. ”

Shusun Leopard had lost the ability to distinguish right from wrong, and he shouted to erect a bull to catch Shusun Ren back, but Shusun Ren heard the wind in advance and immediately fled to Qi without stopping.

It is always easier for the villain to win than the good guy, and the bull is now in control of the power of the Shusun family, and he has replaced many important positions with his own henchmen; The servants around Uncle Sun Leopard did not have a good person. He also colluded with Ji Sun's family to endanger his family with the help of external forces.

Uncle Sun Leopard's illness is getting worse day by day, and this lonely old man's longing for Uncle Sun Ren has become strong again. He asked the bull to summon his uncle and grandson Ren back to inherit the throne. The bull agreed, but how could he carry out that order?

Winter came, and Shusun Ren still didn't come back, and Shusun Leopard felt that the situation was completely out of control. But at this time, the uncle and grandson still held their own positions, so that it would not be taken away by the erection of the bull. Uncle Sun Wu secretly summoned Du Qi, who had fled to the country of Yi, and asked him to help him fight against the erection of the bull.

Although the struggle has entered the final critical stage, the Shusun family still seems to be calm on the surface.

Zhuniu stepped up the action of setting up another portal, and he frequently went to see Nanyi, trying to use him to tie up Ji Wuzi. But when Nan Yi made a request, Ji Wuzi's reaction was like thunder: "Help that bastard bastard fight against his uncle and grandson?" Are you crazy? The uncle and grandson must not fall into his hands, otherwise you and I will wait to die in a foreign land! Cut off contact with him at once, or I won't let you go!" ”

Zhuniu lost strong reinforcements, and while strengthening contacts with other collaborators, he decided to seize power by extreme means, and this extreme means was to "starve Uncle Sun Leopard"!

One day, when the bull went out to run errands, Du Chu disguised himself as a handyman and sneaked into the bedroom of his uncle and grandson. He hugged his hungry, thirsty, weak and helpless old master, and wept. Uncle Sun Leopard learned the truth for the first time from his mouth: he knew that his two sons were framed by that villain; Knowing that the Vertical Bull has controlled the Shusun clan; I know that he colluded with the villains of other families to think that they were foreign aid and jointly infringed on the interests of the uncle and grandson clan.

Uncle Sun Leopard handed over a Ge to Du Qi and ordered him to kill the vertical bull, Du Qi shook his head and said, "I can't kill it!" How much more have you been so anxious to find him, and how can you get rid of him now? "Uncle Sun Leopard asked Du Qi to get some food and water, and as soon as Du Qi left, the vertical cow returned.

The next day, the uncle and grandson leopard were too weak to make a sound. But the servant brought the food as usual, and brought it into the house in the form of an oxen, sneering at his father's hateful, complaining, helpless eyes, and then taking out the empty plate.

On December 26, the fourth year of Lu Zhaogong (BC538), Shusun Leopard exhaled his last breath in infinite remorse and hunger, and Zhuniu announced that Shusun Wu was the heir.

Lu Zhaogong issued an edict at the resolute request of his uncle and grandson, and took the task of handling the funeral of his uncle and grandson leopard from the hands of the vertical cow and handed it over to Du Chu. When the uncle and grandson were immersed in deep grief, the vertical bull took the opportunity to make friends with the powerful and sell the lord for glory.

Zhuniu wanted to get rid of Du Chu, but he couldn't achieve his goal through his uncle and grandson, so he wanted to use the power of Ji Sun's family.

During the period of Lu Xianggong, King Zhou Ling gave his uncle and grandson leopard a road car, and the uncle and grandson leopard did not dare to take it in order to show his awe of Zhou Tianzi and Lu Xianggong; Now Du Chu wants to use it to bury his uncle and grandson Leopard.

Zhuniu decided to use this as a breakthrough to investigate Du Chu's great disrespect. He told Nan Yi about the situation, and Nan Yi said to Ji Wuzi: "That road car was originally ridden by the Son of Heaven, and my uncle and grandson didn't dare to use it when they were alive, but Du Yi tried to use it for burial!" The sin of Du Chu is great! Moreover, there is no such precedent for the successive emperors of the Lu State, and it cannot be started from the uncle and grandson leopard. ”

The latter sentence hooked Ji Wuzi's jealousy, because so far, no one in the Ji Sun family has won this honor. He forbade Du Chu to use a road car to accompany the funeral; As for the charge of disrespect, Ji Wuzi felt that Nan Yi was making a big fuss.

Du Chu was not succumbed to Ji Wuzi's obscenity in the slightest, and he replied: "The master was ordered by the prince to envoy to the royal city during his lifetime, and the spirit king thanked the old lords of the uncle and grandson clan, and gave him a ride on the road. The master did not dare to exclude it, and dedicated it to the ancestor when he returned to his life; The ancestor did not dare to disobey the king's command, and gave it to the master again.

"This matter is recorded by the three officials: Ji Sun is Situ, the title of the book; Uncle Sun is Sima, a scholar; Mengsun is Sikong, Shuxun; After writing, it was hidden in the treasury. Now it is not allowed to use it to accompany the funeral, one is to betray the king's order, and the other is to blaspheme the duties of the three officials; Besides, the Master didn't use it during his lifetime, and he didn't allow it after he died, so when can he use it?! ”

Ji Wuzi felt aggrieved and had to nod in agreement. When he returned, he severely reprimanded Nanyi; Nan Yi had fire in his heart, and scolded the bull again; In order to recover the decline, the bull adopted even more despicable and shameless means.

At that time, the three armies of the Lu State had been divided by the three Huan. After Ji Wuzi plundered the power of the office, he wanted to plunder the military power of the Mengsun clan and the Shusun clan.

At that time, Meng Xizi was young and weak, and had to rely on the Jisun family; Uncle Sun Leopard has just died, and the internal turmoil of the Uncle Sun clan is a godsend in Ji Wuzi's view.
