Duke Huan of Qi
The Princes of Qi Huan, only the Wei people finally arrived.
Duke Huan of Qi believed that this was Wei Guo's contempt for the State of Qi. He consulted with Guan Zhong in the court, and Wei Ji discussed a plan to attack Wei Guo. Duke Huan of Qi retreated into the harem, and Wei Ji saw Duke Huan, bowed down to Duke Huan repeatedly, and asked Wei Jun how he had offended the State of Qi. Huan Gong said: Wei Jun is not inappropriate! How do you plead guilty on his behalf?
Wei Ji replied, "When I saw you come in, your feet were very high, your momentum was also very strong, and you had the courage to fight against other countries, and when you saw me, your face changed a little, which shows that it is Wei Guo who wants to fight." So..."
……
The next day, Huan Gongshang and Guan Zhongxiang entered. Guan Zhong said, "Have you forgiven Wei Guo and stopped crusading?" ”
"Father, how do you know?" Huan Gong asked.
Guan Zhong said, "Your courtesy when you go up to the court is much more respectful than usual, and your speech is also very slow, not as decisive and cheerful as usual; you are ashamed when you see me, so I know that you are not going to fight against the defense of the country." ”
Huan Gong said, "You are very right. The middle father rules outside, and the wife rules inside, so I will not laugh at the princes in the end. ”
