(A set of spring and autumn Warring States costume pictures, not related to this article)
During the Spring and Autumn Period, before the State of Qi dominated the Central Plains, there was a princely state that was very bullish, that is, the State of Zheng.
Zheng Jun III assisted Zhou, outstanding merit, Zheng Zhuang Gong Huansheng is even more amazing, brave and wise, many life deeds, Ke Duan Yu Yan, false purpose of cutting song, snatching Zhou Mai, arrow shooting Huan Wang, which one makes people shocked off their jaws. Putting him together with the later Five Lords was no less than that, but his successors were more and more provocative. Today is the story of his descendant Zheng Linggong.
During the reign of Zheng Linggong, Gongzi returned to power and wore a pair of pants with Gongzi Song. Gongzi Gui was born with a weak temperament, cautious and timid, and Gongzi Song was strong and fierce.
One day, Guisheng and Gongzi Song met up early and went on a pilgrimage to see Linggong. Suddenly, Gongzi Song's right index finger trembled unconsciously, and Gongzi Song smiled: "Today there is something delicious again." Seeing Guisheng's dazed face, he explained to him: "Every time before tasting the delicacy, this finger of mine will report in advance." Before the envoy to the Jin Kingdom, I ate the stone flower fish, and then I went to the Chu Country, tasted the swan meat, the spirit was very experienced, I don't know what kind of blessings are there today? "The return to life is quite surprising.
When he came to the gate, he saw that the internal attendant hurriedly summoned Zaifu inside. Gongzi Song rushed forward to ask what was going on, and the internal attendant said, "Someone caught a turtle of more than two hundred pounds from the Han River and offered it to the lord, who is now tied to the hall, and the lord ordered me to summon the slaughterer to slaughter it, so that I could feast on the doctors." ”
Gongzi Song and Gongzi Guisheng entered the dynasty side by side, and when they saw a large shrew tied to the pillar of the hall, shaped like a wheel, the two looked at each other and smiled. When he met Linggong, the smile at the corner of his mouth was still there, and Linggong asked him what the two of them were laughing, and Guisheng 1510 told Linggong the special function of Gongzi Song, and Linggong smiled and said, "I don't see it, the spirit is not magical, the power lies in the widow." The two of them went down to the temple and returned to life, saying, "The turtle is right in front of you, but if the lord does not invite you, you can only stare dryly." Gongzi Song's head shook: "Lord, the grand banquet, it is impossible to beat me sideways, rest assured." At four o'clock in the afternoon, the internal attendants summoned all the doctors, and the prince Song Song loosened his belt and said to Guisheng, "I know that the lord will not invite me." ”
Later, the monarch sat down, and Linggong delivered a speech: "The weasel is the best taste of the water tribe, and the widow does not dare to enjoy it exclusively, and is willing to share it with the secretaries of state." The ministers qi declared their thanks: "The lord and prince will not forget to eat, and the ministers will be grateful." ”
The soup was already cooked, and Zaifu first offered it to Linggong, who tasted it, and said, "Well, good, delicious!" "Put down the chopsticks, and order the courtiers to give each of them a ding, and send them from the next seat." Zaifu honored the order, but he did not expect that when he was assigned to the chief and the second seat, there was only one ding left, and asked linggong who to give, and linggong replied: "Give the son's family." (Zijia is the word for the return of the son) Therefore, Zaifu put the last soup in front of the return. Linggong laughed: "The widow's life is given to Zhuqing, but it is gone to the Zigong (Zigong is the word of Gongzi Song), how can it be so inch?" It should be that today the son has no mouth, and the index finger will taste the delicacy in advance, which is pure nonsense. ”
It turned out that Linggong deliberately ordered Zaifu to set up this bureau, the purpose of which was to trick Gongzi Song and make his index finger untested, thinking that it was a laughing stock.
Today, the lord gave food, the civil and military officials all have a share, the only one who lacked Gongzi Song, Gongzi Song knew in his heart, knew that Linggong intended to tease himself, thinking that he had just spoken so much in front of Gongzi's return to life, he couldn't help but be ashamed and angry, and even strode to the front of Linggong, stretched out his claws that often picked his nose and, pulled out a piece of turtle meat from Linggong's bowl, threw it into his mouth, looked at Zheng Linggong who was stunned, and smiled triumphantly: I have also tasted the Hanjiang turtle turtle, why doesn't the index finger taste it? He turned around and left with a big wave.
After half a day, Zheng Linggong returned to the taste, threw away the chopsticks, and scolded: "Old Pifu, dare to deceive the king, didn't I, Zheng Guo, the hall of fame, cut your sword?" Gongzi Guisheng was frightened, and hurriedly interceded with everyone for Gongzi Song, and Linggong hated and hated, and the monarch dispersed unhappily.
If after the two sides have calmed down, Gongzi Song went to apologize to Zheng Linggong, and Zheng Linggong borrowed a donkey, the two junchens may get back together, after all, Gongzi Song is a state instrument, and Linggong will not treat him well. However, Gongzi Song belongs to the donkey, and he says that those who are slow are also slow! So don't admit mistakes, don't apologize, love me. Zheng Linggong couldn't get off the stage, his hatred was itching at the root of his teeth, and he secretly wondered how to pull out this rusty nail.
Zheng Linggong here just had a thought, and Gongzi Song over there had already acted. He told Guisheng about the idea of killing Linggong, and Guisheng was horrified, saying, "Kittens and puppies have been together for a long time, and they still can't bear to kill them, let alone the king of a country!" You quickly dispel this idea, just talk about it, we have been so many years, I should not have heard. ”
Guisheng did not cooperate, Gongzi Song fell into passivity, unwilling, so he spread rumors, saying that Guisheng and Linggong's mother and brother Gongzi went to get together every day, muttering, not knowing what the plot was, I am afraid that it would be unfavorable to the society. Guisheng was anxious and afraid, privately questioning Gongzi Song what he was doing, Gongzi Song laughed: "Zi family, to say a word of heart and lungs, we are grasshoppers on a rope, no one should want to run, if you dare not cooperate with me, I will let you die in front of me!" ”
Gongzi Gui was cowardly, did not dare to oppose Gongzi Song, and groaned for half a moment, asking, "What do you want?" Gongzi Song said: "If a big thing is accomplished, you and I will be good at pushing sons and kings, and we will be good with Jin, but we can ensure that Zheng Guo will be fine for a hundred years." Guisheng was flustered and had no idea, only said, "Do as you please." ”
At the Autumn Festival of that year, Linggong stayed overnight in the Zhai Palace, and Gongzi Song led the crowd to break in, crushed Linggong with an earthen bag, and lied to the outside world that Linggong was "violently dead in the middle of the nightmare", and did not dare to say much when he returned to life.
Gongzi Guisheng, as a ruling minister, did not report the rebellion of Gongzi Song in advance, did not obstruct during the incident, and did not seek rebellion afterwards, so when Confucius composed "Spring and Autumn", he clearly pointed out: Zheng Gongzi returned to life and killed his king. Make him the first offender.
