The Great Ming War made Fucha see the determination of the Chu people to defend the dignity of the great country and protect the Chen State to the death. Although King Zhao of Chu had died, the troika of Chu (Zixi, Ziqi, and Zilu) was still running as usual, and Fu Cha did not dare to continue to provoke Chu, so he turned his attention to Lu in the north.

It turned out that in order to gain the support of Wu Guoren, Lu Zhaogong had married Lu Lu's sister (this marriage caused a lot of trouble because the husband and wife had the same surname, and many people accused Lu Zhaogong of "indecent manners").

In the summer of the seventh year of Lu Aigong (BC488), the husband came to Lu under the banner of visiting relatives. Lu Aigong didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly ran to Yandi to meet with his husband.

The people of Lu hated and feared the big devil of Gouwu, and tried their best to receive him with the friendship of the landlord. However, not only did Fu Cha not express the slightest satisfaction, but made a request that shocked the world: he actually ordered the people of Lu to treat him with the specifications of "one hundred prisons (one hundred food vessels)"! You must know that the specifications of the princes to entertain the Son of Heaven are only nine prisons!

Although Fucha's request is absurd and unreasonable, Lu Guo is not innocent. It turned out that in order to harm his uncle and grandson Leopard, Ji Wuzi had set a precedent of entertaining Shi Ying in eleven prisons.

Zifu Jingbo received Wu Guoren's order and said angrily: "Wu Jun's request is really too much, even the kings of Zhou in the past dynasties did not make such a request. ”

The envoy of Wu said: "Song Jun once entertained the widow with the gift of a hundred prisons, and Lu Guo cannot be willing to be the queen of Song State." Besides, Lu Guo once entertained Doctor Jin with eleven prisons, isn't it normal for my king to ask for one hundred prisons? ”

Zifu Jingbo replied: "Jin Shi Ying is greedy and rude, threatening our country with force, and my country is forced to adopt the eleventh prison out of desperation. If Wu Jun treats the princes with courtesy, please observe the Zhou etiquette; If the Zhou rites are abandoned, the princes will definitely not accept it. The heavenly object is only twelve (December of the year, twelve hours a day), and the maximum number of rituals set by the king of Zhou shall not exceed twelve. If the king dares to risk the greatness of the world and not transgress the number of days, I have nothing to say. ”

Wu was determined to achieve his goal, and he didn't care whether the people of Lu were talking back or the opposite. The messenger just left a faint sentence: "Then there is a Laofuzi." Then he left.

Zifu Jingbo replied: "King Wu abandoned God and betrayed the fundamentals, and Sheji has already shown the appearance of a dead country!" If he does not meet his requirements, the country of Lu will inevitably suffer. ”

Lu Aigong had to meet the rude request of the husband. Just when the people of Lu thought they had survived this farce, Bo Yao did another shameless thing: he sent someone to Qufu to summon Ji Kangzi, and asked Ji Kangzi to immediately run to the Huimeng land to meet him - to give an order to the secretary of a country, which is to regard himself as Lu Hou.

But Bo Yao's real intentions are not as simple as they seem on the surface. It turned out that the Wu people secretly made an insidious plan before going north, they wanted to kidnap Ji Kangzi (because Lu Aigong is a tablet, and Ji Kangzi is the real ruler), and decide whether to destroy Lu according to the situation. And Ji Kangzi's purpose in staying in Qufu is to prevent similar situations from happening.

Zigong happened to be in Qufu at that time to handle business, and Ji Kangzi immediately sent him to reply to Wu Guoren.

Seeing Zigong, Bo Yao asked: "The monarch travels hard, but Shangqing hides in the capital to enjoy happiness, how can there be such etiquette in the world?" ”

Zigong replied: "Dazai is wrong, Lu Guo's move is not because of etiquette, but because of fear of a big country. The great powers did not treat the princes with courtesy. Since it is not polite, what country can predict the behavior of a great power? Since the widow respectfully listened to the king's orders, how could Tsukasa dare not guard the country carefully? It is said that when Taibo first arrived in Wu, he still wore the dress of the Western Zhou Dynasty, but after Yu Zhong ascended the throne, he broke his tattoo and integrated into the local customs. Does Yu Zhong observe the weekly etiquette? Of course not, but no one can fault what he did. ”

Seeing that the trick had been discovered by the other party, Bo Yao no longer insisted. After Zigong returned to Qufu, he told Ji Kangzi that Wu Guo had no ability anymore and could not cause any harm to Lu State.

Ji Kangzi originally had a plan to attack the country of Yi - the people of Yi Ziyi were corrupt and degenerate, and the magnates were led by him to degenerate together, and as a result, the country was made miserable, and the people of Yi had to flee their homes to make a living in Lu. But Ji Kangzi was afraid that Wu Guo would take the opportunity to make trouble, so he never left the school. Zigong's words were equivalent to giving him a "quick-acting reassurance", so his self-confidence returned to him.

A few days later, Ji Kangzi announced his plan to attack the country of Yi under the pretext of a banquet for all the doctors, and asked everyone for advice. The doctors were drunk, but after hearing Ji Kangzi's words, they all fell silent, and no one refused to speak first.

Later, Zifu Jingbo was the first to stand up and said: "It is all about credit for a small country to serve a big country, and it is all about benevolence for a big country to protect a small country." It is unbelievable for a small country to betray a big country, and it is unkind for a big country to abuse a small country. People rely on the city for preservation, and the city depends on virtue for preservation. Without the city and virtue, what can be expected to protect the people? "The doctors are conflicted and entangled, and no one continues to express their opinions.

At this time, the atmosphere was very awkward, but Ji Kangzi had already won Meng Yizi's support in advance. Meng Yizi was afraid that Jingbo would be disturbed by the quilt, and he didn't want to expose his intentions too early, so he stood up with a smile and said, "What do you have to say?" I'm waiting to take it! ”

Zang Sun Binru immediately figured out the situation, he has always been at odds with Meng Yizi (the source of the discord between the two can be traced back to the period of Meng Zhuangzi and Zang Sun Su), and said loudly: "At the beginning, Dayu held a princes' meeting in Tushan, and there were 10,000 princes in the world who came to attend the meeting. And now? There are only a few dozen left. This is all because big countries don't love small countries, and small countries don't serve big countries! Lu is a big country for Di, but for Qi it has become a small country again. The invasion of the country will inevitably lead to the intervention of the major powers, and our country will inevitably be invaded by the enemy. So for the sake of social security, I must object! ”

Then someone joked: "If the virtue of the Lu State degenerates to the same level as the Lu State, the great powers can increase their troops in Lu!" Then we won't have any complaints. ”

In the end, the doctors who opposed the war were in the majority, which Ji Kangzi did not expect. He ended the banquet hastily, and the guests and hosts parted unhappily.

But Ji Kangzi's determination to fight against the emperor would not change because of the opposition of the doctors, and he and Meng Yizi were ready to bypass the opponents and go it alone.

In the autumn of this year, Ji Kangzi and Meng Yizi were handsome. When the Lu army arrived at the outskirts of the capital of the country, the people of the country could even faintly hear the sound of bell music coming from the city.

The doctors of the State of Yi knew very well in their hearts that the defense of the capital was completely unable to resist the attack of the Lu army, so they persuaded the Emperor to leave the dangerous city and go to the State of Qi immediately. But Di Ziyi's stupid brain had long since lost the ability to make correct judgments, and he snorted alcohol and shouted that all the invaders would never return. Doctor Mao Chengzi proposed to ask Wu Guo for help, and Yi Ziyi said: "The voices of Lu Ji and Lu Ji Dog are heard by each other, but Wu Guo is two thousand miles away; Without three months, reinforcements could not arrive. Besides, our country's military strength is enough to crush those miscellaneous people, and we don't need foreign help. ”

Seeing that Di Ziyi was hopeless, Mao Chengzi immediately fled back to Fengyi and began to build fortifications.

A few days later, the Lu army marched into the country of Yi with square steps, and Ji Kangzi happily captured the drunk and unconscious Yi Ziyi. Mao Chengzi recruited an army and set up the army in Yicheng; As a result, the Lu army plundered the capital during the day, and the Yi army plundered the city at night. Ji Kangzi saw that his goal had been achieved, so he took Yi Ziyi back to China.

Mao Chengzi rushed to Gusu day and night to ask for help from the people of Wu. Bo Ya hated the state of Lu because Ji Kangzi went against his will, and he became an active advocate of Valu.
