It is said that Duke Mu of Qin, after marrying the daughter of The Duke of Jin, was crowned queen because of her excellent performance. When Duke Mu of Qin looked through the dowry list at the same time as the queen, he found that there was baili xi's name, but he had never seen this person, which was very strange, so he asked the people in the palace. The person in charge said, "This man turned out to be an old minister of Yu Guo, and was sent by Jin Guo as a 'dowry minister'. It may be that he was uncomfortable and ran away halfway. ”
It wasn't that what was lost was good, because Qin Mugong felt that there must be a reason for Baili Xi to escape halfway. Qin Mugong asked the chancellor Gongsun Fei, "You have been serving in the Jin Dynasty for many years, you must know Baili Xi, what kind of person is he?" Gongsun Fei reported truthfully, and finally sighed at what happened to Baili Xi: "Unfortunately, Baili Xi is superior in wisdom, loyal, and talented in heaven and earth. ”
Maxima is about to meet Bole. Qin Muzheng was worried about the lack of talents in his hegemony, wasn't this a sage who sent him to the door! After hearing Gongsun Xi's words, he was overjoyed and said, "How can I get this person from Baili Xi?" Gongsun Hui said, "I heard that Bai Lixi's wife is in the Chu Kingdom, and I think he must be going to the Chu State if he wants to escape, and we can send someone to the Chu State to inquire." ”
Mu Gong immediately sent someone to the Chu Kingdom, and soon got the news: Bai Li Xi was on the seashore, releasing horses for the King of Chu! Mu Gong thought in his heart, This fool of the King of Chu, the level is so high! God helped me. He said to Gongsun Fei, "You quickly buy him back with heavy money, and the King of Chu likes money." Gongsun Fei said, "No." "Why?" Gongsun Fei bought Baili Xi with heavy money, and it was precisely to tell Chu Jun that this person was useful. The King of Chu loves money even more carefully, the higher the price you pay, the more he is worthy of this person's usefulness, he will leave Baili Xi for his own use, if Bai Li Xi does not use it, he will kill Bai Li Xi, so that others can not use it. Gongsun came up with an idea and ransomed him at a low price for the crime of escaping the dowry minister.
No matter how good jade is, in the eyes of people who do not know treasure, it is always stone. In the name of arresting the fugitives, the Qin envoys said to the king of Chu: "We have a lowly minister named Baili Xi who has fled to your country, and we now want to arrest him and punish him, so as to warn all those who have fled." Today ransom him with five black sheepskins to go back and be punished. "When the king of Chu heard it, he was the one who kept the horse!" For the sake of relations between the two countries, they agreed to leave five black sheepskins and let Baili Xi return to the Qin state to be punished. In order not to make any more trouble, afraid that Bai Lixi would escape again, he ordered his men to capture Bai Lixi and escort him in a prison cart for the envoys of the Qin State to bring him back.
When Bai Lixi was caught, the people who herded the horses together thought that he would be killed, and everyone shed tears and silently sent him off. Bai Lixi was very happy to say to them, "Brothers, rest assured! I heard that Qin Mugong already had great ambitions for hegemony, so why would he be in a hurry to arrest such a dowry person as me? He was definitely going to reuse me. I'm going to enjoy the riches, don't cry! If you have something to do in the future, you can go to me! "After saying that, I got into the prison car.
Sure enough, when the prison cart entered the border of the Qin state, Duke Mu of Qin had already sent Gongsun Fei to wait, and Gongsun Fei announced that he was exempt from the crime of escaping from Bailixi, and said that Mu Zhengyi was waiting for him with the etiquette of receiving vips. At this time, Baili Xi was already 70 years old, belonging to the ancient rare old man, and the dawn of life was only the dawn of the East. However, when Qin Mugong saw Bai Lixi, he sighed deeply with regret and said with emotion, "Unfortunately, you are already old." ”
Gold always shines, and once it is revealed, it is always so dazzling, brilliant and lovely. Bai Lixian said unhurriedly, "Tell me to chase birds and catch beasts, it is indeed old, if you ask me to plan state affairs by your side, I am still quite small." Once upon a time, when Jiang Taigong was 80 years old, he was fishing by the water' edge, and King Wen of Zhou took him back as a chancellor and assisted Wu in cutting down the silk and completing the great cause of Xingzhou. I'm 10 years younger now! ”
Talent is talent. Qin Mugong's eyes lit up, he was conquered by Bai Lixi's words, so he put down the shelf and seriously talked to Bai Lixi about the way to rich countries and strong soldiers. But Bai Lixian still sold some Guanzi and said, "I am a minister of the subjugated country, what is the use of what I said?" Qin Mugong said, "It is not you who offended the country if you did not listen to your persuasion to destroy the country." "It's a hero who always resonates. The more Qin Mugong and Baili Xi talked, the more speculative they became, and finally Baili Xi's strategy for Qin Mugong's hegemony was: attacking Xirong, expanding the territory, increasing the population, strengthening military training, and then destroying the Jin Dynasty, so as to achieve the hegemony of the Qin state. After hearing this, Qin Mugong said happily, "I have Baili Xi today, just like Qi Huangong got Guan Zhong." ”
The fifth stop of the world, the "five black sheepskins", set up a stage, but it can accommodate ten thousand horses galloping. Qin Mugong and BaiLi Xi had been talking for three days, and named Bai Li Xi the "Five Doctors". In order to further reflect his love for his subjects, Mu Gong treated Baili Xi like a father, and entrusted all the important affairs of the country to Bai Lixi. Since then, Baili Xi has fully exerted his talents and achieved hegemony for Qin Mugong and become one of the five hegemons of the Spring and Autumn Period.
Thousands of miles and miles will eventually return to the original point - home. The meeting between Bai Lixi and his wife Du Shi was when Bai Li Xi was the prime minister of the Qin State, and was called "Xiangtang Listening to the Qin" and became a beautiful talk. Saying that one day, Du Shi begged to go to the Qin Kingdom, and she heard that the prime minister of the Qin State was called Bai Lixi, but she was not sure whether it was her husband in the end. It is difficult for civilians to meet the prime minister of a country. To this end, Du Shi went to Xiangfu to apply for a job as a maid.
One day, Bai Lixi held a banquet, interlaced with songs and dances, and it was very lively. At this time, a maid who washed clothes said that she would play a song for Baili Xi, and Bai Lixi happily agreed. The maid who washed clothes sang to herself, "Baili Xi, five sheepskins." When I remember the farewell, cook the female, cook the woman, and today I am rich and noble..."
What a familiar voice, Bai Lixi stared at each other, this maid was his wife Du Shi, who was thinking of twilight, so the relatives gathered together, and everyone was happy. This wonderful and poetic reunion should be a blessing for good people! Human affairs should be the consummation of good people.
