Last time, when it came to zhou Zheng's hostage-taking, after the hostage-making incident, Zheng Zhuang's duke Liu Zhou began to assist the government again, and there was nothing to do for a while. In the 51st year of King Ping of Zhou, King Ping hung up. Duke Zhuang and Duke Hei of Zhou were both regents of the same dynasty, and sent Zheng Shizi back to Zheng Guo, welcoming back the Zhou prince Hu to succeed to the throne. The prince fox was heartbroken by the death of his father and king, his body had not yet completely healed, his grief was excessive, and he died without completing the inheritance. He had to let his son Lin lai inherit the unification and be called the King of Zhou Huan. All the princes came to mourn and meet the new Son of Heaven. Father Yu was afraid that his father would arrive first, and he ran before and after several weeks of etiquette, and everyone respected him.
King Huan of Zhou was suspicious and afraid because his father had killed Zheng zheng, and when he saw that Zheng Zhuanggong had been in control of the government for a long time, he was suspicious and afraid in his heart. Privately, he consulted with Duke Hei of Zhou to let Gong Yu's father come to assist the government and replace Zheng Zhuanggong. Zhou Gong's black shoulders suggested not to be reckless, Zheng Gong was mean and unkind, but he was very credited to Zhou Guo's eastward migration, how to annoy him because of this, he would definitely have revenge! Who knew that King Huan of Zhou had already made up his mind and was determined to make this trip.
The next day, Duke Huan advised Duke Zheng that you are a minister of the first king, and I dare not wronged you in your class, but you can be safe! Zhuang Gong had no choice but to resign, and his heart was not angry that he did not have a conscience to say that the widow had no conscience, and it was not enough to assist! I drove home on the same day.
Shizi suddenly led the hundred officials out of the city to greet him, and asked him why he returned to China, and Zheng Zhuanggong recounted the resignation, and everyone was indignant. Some people have come up with the idea of raising an army to cut down the Zhou, and some people think that it is impossible to endure a period of time and then return to the dynasty, so as not to hurt the great righteousness of the death of the first king. The Doctor Suggested both, saying that the years were not good, and that it would be too late for the Lords to lead the troops to collect wheat in the land of Wen and Luo, and if the Zhou Dynasty asked for guilt, we would have an excuse, and if the Zhou Dynasty did not say a word, it would not be too late for the lord to re-enter the Dynasty. Zheng Zhuanggong thought it was a good idea.
Therefore, The priest led his troops to the land of Wenluo to borrow grain and harvest wheat, and the magistrate of Wenluo resigned on the grounds that he had not received the order of the King of Zhou. The priest only ordered his subordinates to go down to the fields to harvest wheat, and the local officials did not dare to fight when they saw that their soldiers and horses were strong.
The priest led the soldiers to collect grain and stayed at the border for more than three months, and when they saw the early rice ripening in the zhouzhou, they sent their sergeants to dress as merchants to secretly harvest at night, and at five o'clock, the guards found that they had already collected the rice and ran away.
When King Huan heard about this, he was furious and wanted to raise an army to cut down Zheng, but Duke Hei of Zhou persuaded Duke Zheng that he might not know about it, and that It was against Yi's relatives (the same surname), and King Huan also knew that his country was weak, so he had to give permission and instructed Bianguan to be more vigilant.
King Huan of Zhou was not blamed for the cutting of wheat and rice by Zheng Zhuanggong, and he could not help but feel uneasy, preparing to enter the court, and was about to start a trip, but he reported that an envoy had come to see him. Receiving the Envoy of Qi, he agreed to meet with Qi Gong at the Stone Gate.
The second duke will make an appointment at The Stone Gate, and the blood will be an alliance, about brothers, and there will be things to do with each other. When Duke Qi asked about his son's sudden marriage contract, Duke Zhuang said that he had not, and that the young daughter of Duke Qi was willing to marry the son of the world. Zhuang Gong thanked him. Go back to ask Shizi Kuo, who knows that Suddenly disagreed, thinking that Zheng Xiaoqi was big and not big or small. Zhuang Gong advised him to marry only for the sake of interdependence, so why didn't he agree? How can a great husband rely on marriage when he is self-reliant? Zhuang Gong was very approved, and he no longer demanded it.
Suddenly, duke Zhuang and his courtiers were discussing the affairs of the Zhou Dynasty, and just when the obituary of Wei Huan came. When Duke Zhuang asked the envoy, he learned about Gongzi Zhou's call to kill the king. Zhuang Gongdun sighed: Not good! Zheng Guo must hurry up and prepare for prevention! When the courtiers asked him why, Zhuang Gong said: The state is good at using soldiers, and now that it is plotting rebellion, it must use soldiers to show its ambition. Zheng Wei has always been suspicious, and his use of soldiers will inevitably come to Zheng!
Why did the Weiguo cause his subjects to kill his king? Let's talk back next.
