【5,000 Years of Rambling - Episode 194】
The thirteenth monarch of the State of Qi, Duke Qi, had three sons: Zhu'er, Gui, and Xiaobai. After the death of Duke Qi, Zhu'er succeeded to the throne as Duke Xiang of Qi.
Speaking of Qi Xianggong, there are only two words to describe: willfulness and revenge.
How willful is Qi Xianggong? When he was crown prince, he had a leg with his half-sister Wen Jiang, and later Wen Jiang married Lu Huangong, who was so hateful that he gritted his teeth and dreamed of chopping Lu Huan Gong.
Another sister of Duke Xiang of Qi, Xuanjiang, married Duke Xuan of Wei, and after Duke Xuangong's death, Duke Hui of Wei, son of Duke Xuanjiang, succeeded to the throne. Later, Wei Huigong was expelled from Weiguo, and Qi Xianggong convened a public meeting of Lu Huan.
Lu Huangong was honest and honest, thinking to himself: His great aunt and his second aunt are all his aunts, and his nephew has difficulties, and the eldest uncle cannot ignore it.
However, Qi Xianggong's idea was that his great aunt and his second aunt were all his aunts, and his nephew had difficulties, and the eldest aunt could not not be present.
Lu Huangong's response was: What do you always do with his great aunt when things between men?
Qi Xianggong said: I will rip his great aunt and uncle, and if you don't obey, you will beat me!
Lu Huangong said: "Can everyone hear it?" He made me beat him, and I've never seen such a request in most of my life!
As a result, the affairs of the nephew's family were not settled, and the brother-in-law and the brother-in-law fought a battle in Xidi.
Seeing that the new year was coming, Qi Xianggong wanted to have a child with his great aunt again.
This time, Lu Huangong also looked away, and it was normal for the child to want to see the great aunt. Therefore, Duke Huan of Lu took Wen Jiang to Luodi to make an alliance with the Qi Xiang Guild.
In the next few days, Qi Xianggong and Wen Jiang nagged during the day, and at night they would compete with the child and his great aunt in bed.
On a sunny morning, when Lu Huan looked in the mirror, he suddenly noticed that his hat had turned green, so he scolded Wen Jiang.
As soon as Wen Jiang turned around, he complained to the child and his brother-in-law.
In the countryside, girls are bullied in their in-laws' homes, and it is a custom to find a brother-in-law to get angry. However, this time, Qi Xianggong played too much, first drunk Lu Huangong, and then sent his son Peng Sheng to help Lu Huangong get into the car and directly strangled Lu Huangong to death.
Subsequently, Qi Xianggong sent someone to inform the Lu people that Lu Huangong had been in a car accident while drunk driving in the State of Qi.
The Lu people certainly did not believe it, and sent someone to Qi Xianggong and said: We Lu Jun are afraid of his brother-in-law, so we took his wife back to his mother's house, and before the matter was completed, there was a car accident, and we don't know who the perpetrator is? This matter, the mainstream media of various princely states, the public known big V are frantically forwarding, please let Gongzi Gusheng go to the press conference.
As a result, Gongzi Pengsheng was a scapegoat for crisis public relations and was sent to the guillotine by Qi Xianggong.
Qi Xianggong ate a dumb loss and always wanted to find a punching bag to vent.
That night, Qi Xianggong suddenly dreamed of his childhood playmate, that is, Zheng Ziyi, the current monarch of the State of Zheng. I think back then, these two male brothers got together all day to steal chickens and dogs, and loved to eat the stinky tofu of the old Wang family next door and did not give money. Once, the brothers fought a fight over eating tofu.
Originally, children fought like a family, today they broke up, tomorrow they wear a pair of pants, which is normal. However, Qi Xianggong has a characteristic, remembering revenge.
In July of that year, Duke Xiang of Qi summoned the princes to a meeting at the head of the Wei State, and by the way, he and Zheng Ziqi theorized about eating the overlord's meal at the old Wang's house.
Fearing the power of the State of Qi, Zheng Ziqi did not heed the advice of the minister, And brought another minister, Gao Miqu, to shouzhi.
At the first meeting, Qi Xianggong scolded Zheng Ziqi: You stink and don't have a face, do you remember the time when you ate people and the old Wang family tofu and didn't give money?
Zheng Ziqi was confused, what kind of thing? When did I eat the old Wang's tofu and not give money?
Qi Xianggong said: You still dare to resist! Apologize to me!
Zheng Ziqi remembered, and scolded in his heart: What age is this he ordered the hall to do, you still remember so clear!
However, Duke Xiang of Qi, no matter what era it was, directly ambushed the soldiers to kill Zheng Ziqi, and then split the body of Gao Miqu's five horses.
After that, the Duke of Qi Xiang became more willful, engaging in military friction with the neighboring small princely states for three days. Of course, every time I go out on business, I don't forget to make an appointment with Wen Jiang's sister.
No, Duke Xiang of Qi had just helped his nephew Wei Huigong regain the throne during the day, and that night he took a special express carriage to the defensive area to drink tea and talk with Wen Jiang's sister. It seriously makes people suspect that this brother is either here to fight or to take his sister.
Duke Xiang of Qi served as a ridiculous monarch for twelve years, and finally, he was killed by his cousin Gongsun Ignorant.
