Zhuang Gong sighed, "You have a mother, but who doesn't have a mother?" ”
Uncle Yingkao knew Zheng Zhuanggong's oath and thought for a while and said, "If you don't see each other until You Don't See Huangquan, you can do it in the world." We may as well dig a tunnel underground, all the way to the place where there is spring water, and people meet in the tunnel, isn't it the Yellow Spring? ”
Zheng Zhuanggong was suddenly cheerful when he heard this, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and immediately asked Uncle Yingkao to go and handle the matter.
Uncle Yingkao quickly led the people to dig the tunnel. Zheng Zhuanggong saw his mother Wu Jiang underground.
Wu Jiang said with tears: "I have been confused for decades for my mother, I can't stand you." ”
Zheng Zhuanggong lifted up Wu Jiang and said, "Mother, you have raised your son, and your son will repay you for the rest of his life." ”
Wu Jiang added, "Thirty-two years ago, I had a dream for my mother, and this dream came true, but I understood this dream in reverse. ”
Zheng Zhuanggong said: "Don't mention the past things again, I hope my mother will live a long and healthy life." "Mother and son are reconciled, and the affection is more than before."
People like to sing, and after Zheng Zhuanggong walked out of the tunnel, he sang with great emotion——
In the great tunnel, the joy is also melted.
Wu Jiang was very emotional, and when he heard Zheng Zhuanggong's singing, he sang and said with song and Tao--Outside the tunnel, his heart was also leaked!
The surrounding subjects said: "Junshang and his mother are really a model of family affection" Zheng Zhuanggong was very grateful to Uncle Yingkao and said to him: "Your own filial piety, and persuade others to be filial piety, is a model of our Zheng Guo filial piety." He left him by his side and appointed him doctor.
After Huang Quan met, Zheng Zhuang returned to Xinzheng from Chengying. On the way, Zheng Zhuanggong saw a group of people and horses rushing to see that it was Feng, the prince of the Song Dynasty. When he saw Zheng Zhuanggong, he immediately knelt down and asked Zheng Zhuanggong to take him in, and it turned out that he had fled here. Zheng Zhuanggong lifted Zi Feng up The two of them drove back to the new Zheng Zi Feng told Zheng Zhuang about the affairs of the Song Dynasty, and the years were merciless. Song Mugong, who followed the Zhou Li and took the principle of xian as his way of life, was seriously ill, and he felt that he was about to be liberated, and said to the doctor Kong Father Jia: "The brother of the widow passes the throne to the widow, and if the widow does not pass the throne to his brother's son Andyi, he is ashamed of the title of sage, and he has no face to see the widow's brother underground." The widow must pass on the good qualities left by his brother. Song Mugong solemnly continued to the doctor Kong Fujia, "After the widow dies, you must not abandon this virtuous deed, you must support the prince and the Yi and not the widow's son Zi Feng. "Within a few days, Song Mugong died, and Zi and Yi took the throne, which was the Duke of Song. Kong Fujia and others who obeyed the orders of Song Mugong were loyal to Song Gong, but they invisibly resented Zi Feng. In line with common sense, people who have conflicts with Kong's father Jia have married Zi Feng. These two forces are openly fighting and secretly, and signs of danger appear from time to time.
Feng, the prince of the Song Dynasty, felt that he was in the depths of the water, and for fear of encountering an accident, he fled to Zheng Guo. Zheng Zhuanggong kept in mind the "Houde Carrier" and properly placed Zi Feng.
On the large river beach on the shore of the Qishui River, groups of slaves are working. In the chirping of the yellow eagles, they sang songs while working. This ballad not only sings about the preciousness of family and friendship, but also about the dangers of war and turmoil. A group of people hurried through the sound of this song. The one who headed it was none other than Zheng Guo's prince Ji Shu Duan. Moreover, it is said that Ji Shu Duan fled to the Communist Kingdom, as usual, he did not know himself, nor was he at peace, in order to become the king of Zheng Guoguo, he ran to Weiguo to ask for help. The Weiguo capital city chaoge, right on the edge of the Qishui River.
The news that Uncle Ji Duan went to Defend the Country from the Communist State reached the ears of Zheng Zhuang, and he did not care about this matter, because Uncle Ji Duan had no talent and no morality, and there was no prestige in the Zheng Kingdom, and it was not a big deal to go to Wei Guo. Now Zheng Zhuanggong was most concerned that the Zhou royal family would be relieved of his secretarial duties. After Zheng Zhuanggong succeeded Zheng Wugong as the secretary of the Zhou Dynasty, that is, the supreme consul of the Zhou Dynasty, he did not often serve at the side of King Ping of Zhou. With the passage of time, the original intimate relationship has gradually cooled down. King Zhou Ping considered replacing someone else as a secretary of state. When Zheng Zhuanggong learned of this situation, he was very dissatisfied, and even resented the King of Zhou Ping for coming to the road to Luoyang, where flowers bloomed and the river was mighty. Zheng Zhuanggong sat on the carriage and hurried to the road. Asaka reflected his long gray beard, and a pair of glowing eyes stared ahead. The clothes are embellished with crystal jade pendants, and with the bumps of the car, the sound of the crash is crisp and pleasant. In the car, Zheng Zhuanggong remembered his father Zheng Wugong, who, in order to avoid the invasion of Xi Rong, protected Zhou Tianzi and moved east to Luoyang. The Zhou royal family moved eastward, mainly relying on the strength of Zheng Guo, so Zhou and Zheng were closely related. From the beginning of Zheng Wugong, Zheng Guo borrowed the Yu Wei of Zhou Tianzi and the real power he held in the Zhou Dynasty to conquer the east and west and expand his territory. Zheng Zhuanggong thought and thought, the position of secretary of state is very important and should not be lost.
Luoyang Palace in front of the dynasty, the back of the bed, the left Zong Temple, the right she, in front of the main hall planted three large locust trees. This locust tree is a common tree species in the north, which is suitable for people to take advantage of the shade and cool. When Zhou Dynasty officials met Tianzi, only the highest-ranking officials were qualified to stand under these three large locust trees. Duke Zheng Zhuang rushed to Luoyang, and instead of taking a nap under the locust tree, he went directly to king Zhou Ping.
Zheng Zhuanggong said bluntly: "Since his father Zheng Wugong has been a subject, Zheng Guo has been self-reliant in order to defend the Zhou royal family, but the Great King you want to remove Zheng Guo from the post of hereditary secretary of state, please ask the Great King, why did he obey the world?" ”
In the face of the increasingly powerful princes of various countries, King Ping of Zhou, who had a weak personality and a gradual decline in prestige, did not dare to offend Zheng Zhuanggong, and said in a panic: "Don't listen to rumors, the widow and you are one family, and I still remember your merits, and the widow will not dismiss you from the post of secretary of state." ”
King Zhou Ping, still not losing the prestige of the Heavenly Son, continued, "Since you are a secretary of state, you must always live in Luoyang, how do you see this?" ”
King Ping's words hit the nail on the head, and Zheng Zhuanggong thought that if he did not take some sincere action, it would be difficult to maintain his position in the Zhou royal family, so he played: "Zheng Guoshizi Ji has grown up, and the subject is willing to put him next to the king to serve the king on behalf of his father. Without waiting for King Ping of Zhou to reply, Zheng Zhuanggong suddenly thought that under the current situation that the authority of the Zhou royal family was not as good as before, Zheng Guo unilaterally took a weak action to show some losses, and he made a clever move and bargained: "The prince of the Zhou Dynasty, Ji Huren Hou Dunxin, asked the king to allow him to come to the State of Zheng, and the subject was willing to ask him for advice every day." The Son of Heaven and the princes exchanged their sons as hostages, which was the first time in the Zhou Dynasty. Zhou Gongji, who assisted Zhou Tianzi, immediately played: "Let the prince go to the princely states to mortgage, where is the authority and face of the Zhou royal family?" Please Ask the Great King to solemnly feast on Zheng Guo. King Zhou Ping thought about it, if he didn't let the prince go to Zheng Guo, Zheng Zhuanggong would inevitably not trust the Zhou royal family, and maybe it would lead to a war, just go, no big deal. Therefore, King Zhou Ping said: "The royal family and the princes must trust each other, and the widow will grant your request, so let the prince go." In this way, the Zhou royal family and Zheng Guo exchanged hostages.
Flowers bloom, spring goes to spring, and the years pass quickly. In 720 BC, King Ping of Zhou died. Duke Zheng Zhuang rushed to Luoyang and managed the affairs of the Zhou Dynasty with Duke Ji of Zhou. Crown Prince Jihu returned to Luoyang and prepared to succeed him as The Son of Heaven. I didn't think that Prince Jihu was weak, coupled with sadness and fatigue from the journey, contracted typhoid fever, and died on the same day he returned to Luoyang. Zheng Zhuanggong and Ji Heibei did not dare to be sloppy, and quickly established Ji Lin, the son of Crown Prince Ji Hu, as the son of Tianzi, that is, the King of Zhou Huan.
After the new Tianzi ascended the throne, Zheng Zhuanggong, who was a secretary, bowed to King Huan of Zhou. Seeing Zheng Zhuanggong, the young and vigorous King Huan of Zhou couldn't help but say in his heart: "The father of the widow went to Zheng Guo as a hostage, which is to humiliate the Zhou royal family." If the widow's father had not gone to Zheng Guo, he would not have died so early. All this is the sin created by Zheng Junyu. Thinking of this, King Huan of Zhou wanted to angrily rebuke Zheng Zhuanggong in the court, but on second thought, his ascension to the throne was indispensable to zheng zhuanggong's merits, and if he was angry now, it would obviously be a grievance and a cold heart for the princes and hundreds of officials. At this time, King Huan of Zhou did not dare to send a fire in his heart, but he could not suppress it, so he coldly said to Zheng Zhuanggong: "Please rise." In recent days, you have worked hard for the widow to ascend the throne. The widow thought, you are the minister of the previous king, how dare the widow appoint you? With such a hidden speech, Zheng Zhuanggong already understood that King Huan of Zhou hated himself and did not want to use himself, he could not help but be angry, just about to attack, but he thought of the characteristics of the lizard - changing the color due to the environment, so he fought and trembled: "Although the subject is the widow of the previous king, he will still do his best to assist the new king as before." The meeting was hastily dispersed, and Zheng Zhuanggong deliberately pretended to be confused, neither wanting to resign nor mention resignation. Zheng Zhuanggong, who had no fire, returned to Zheng Guo with Shizi Ji Kuo the next morning on the grounds that Zheng Guo was in trouble.
