Although Zhong Lianghuai is not good at commanding battles, he has also fought several battles since the beginning of the army, and has fought with the Lu army, the Song army, and the Dongyi tribe.
Liang Huzi's troops suddenly came to the city, he was caught off guard, and what was even more terrifying was that the Wu army did not know what weapons to use, and often ejected a ball of things from the forest, and when it was fashionable in the distance, it was black and pressed into a ball, and it had been scattered into a dense patch in the near place, all of which were fist-sized stones, and they were thrown over, smashing people's heads and bleeding, and the soldiers defending the city fell one by one, these soldiers did not go through a particularly cruel war baptism, and the will to fight was very weak.
Under the attack that was completely impossible to resist, it immediately collapsed.
Zhong Lianghuai was shocked, rushed ahead of the soldiers and fled down the city, hurriedly ran back to the mansion, packed up some soft things, and fled away from the city in a hurry.
Because he was worried that the Wu army was ambushed outside the city, Zhong Lianghuai ordered his soldiers to open the four cities and drive the people in the city as pioneers.
When Zhong Liang Huai and Gongshan rebelled against the Ji clan and took refuge in Zhan Jiao, they brought a large amount of money and grain and the domestic slaves and servants of the Ji clan's fiefdom.
Qingji was overjoyed to get the news of Liang Huzi in Gusu, Wu sent troops to Dongyi, under the banner of suppressing bandits, and was welcomed by the Dongyi people, it can be regarded as a famous teacher, the news reached Lu State, and the monarchs and ministers of Lu State also had some doubts about whether Qingji was clearly a bandit, but in fact it was intended to be in the territory of Dongyi.
Before they could come up with a countermeasure, news came that the Wu army had defeated Zhong Lianghuai and occupied Pengcheng in the Song State.
When the monarchs and ministers of the Lu State heard that Zhong Lianghuai returned from defeat and lost an important city in Zhanjiao, they couldn't help but smile and celebrate, and couldn't help but think of using the momentum of the Wu army to weaken the power of Zhanjiao.
After all, it was the Lu country that was plotting, and even if the Wu people had a plan, it was the Lu people who did not want to extend their military power to the territory of Dongyi abroad.
In the case of the three Huan of the Lu State, the Ji family, the Shusun family and the Qingji family all have a relatively close connection, if the territory of Dongyi is between the rule of the Qi people, the rule of the Wu people and the establishment of the Dongyi self-reliance, they would rather be the Wu people, among the three, after all, Wu Jun and Lu Jun are of the same ancestor, both are of the Ji family, this is the place where the subjects can be persuaded in Dali.
Politically speaking, if the power of the Wu people extends to this point, it will be of great help to the situation of the Lu people.
The Qi people will not dare to oppress the Lu State excessively, once something happens, they can join Wu to resist Qi, or they can join Qi to resist Wu, coerce Wu to respect themselves, and increase the influence of Lu in the surrounding areas.
In view of this, Ji Sun Yiru also warmed up about Xiaoman's marriage, originally from Lu Jun Ji Song returned from Jiagu, due to his great prestige, the people of the country were a little concerned, Ji Sun Yiru was already a little moved, and wanted to force Xiaoman to enter the palace as Mrs.
Lu Jun as the head of the family, but as soon as the news of Wu Jun's northward journey arrived, he hesitated again, and did not say anything about Ji Song's repeated requests, delaying to see the pros and cons.
Due to the above reasons, the Lu people decided not to express any opinion on the matter of Wu Jun's northward march for the time being, and they were arguing about Lu Jun's promotion of Kong Qiu to the position of the Great Priest, so they refocused their energy on this matter.
Da Si Kou is one of the six secretaries of Lu State, although it is far less powerful than Sanhuan, after all, he is a high-ranking official who is justifiably in charge of the justice of Lu State's criminal prisons, and now Lu Jun's power has been greatly improved compared to the past, but Sanhuan has weakened a lot of strength due to the rebellion of two important retainers.
But Kongqiu presided over the Jiagu Alliance this time, his performance was remarkable, and his reputation had spread among the princes, and Sanhuan wanted to obstruct Lu Jun's promotion of him, which made no sense, and the energy of Lu Guojun and his ministers was invested in the internal struggle for power.
At this time, in the state of Wu, various national policies at home and abroad, relying on the talents and courtiers under his hands, were being carried out in an orderly manner.
For the Yue country, Sun Wu instructed Jing Lin to constantly fight piecemeal, create some friction today, ask for something tomorrow, deliberately make an arrogant posture, fly and bully the border army of the Yue country, and test the limit of Gou Jian's patience.
Da Sikong Zhuyong continued to send people to Yue to ask for stone, wood and other heavy and huge building materials and various craftsmen, this is the obligation of the subject country, Yue Wang Yunchang wants to temporarily dormant and accumulate strength, at this time can not resist, plus they hope that Wu will build a large number of buildings, consume Wu country's financial resources, so they also have to respond.
In order to save transportation manpower as much as possible to develop the production of Vietnam, the country continued to widen the waterway to Wu and repair the road to Wu to facilitate transportation.
For the state of Chu, the state of Wu adopted other means, on the one hand, Fan Li sent people to bribe Fei Wuji and his cronies and ministers with heavy money, on the other hand, the messengers sent by the king of Chu and Fei Wuji to ask for the captive property and urge the release of the magnates of the Chu state were as perfunctory as possible, and at the same time, for the sake of the hearts of the Chu people, a group of magnates of the Chu state who were not too important were temporarily released, that is, after these people returned to China, they also created a lot of trouble for the king of Chu and Fei Wuji for the distribution of power, so that the Chu people found reasons to delay themselves, and did not want to take all these people back too early.
On the Dongyi side, King Qingji of Wu was personally in charge, and had frequent contact with the messengers of the queen of Dongyi to discuss the specific implementation plan of Wu to garrison Dongyi and include Dongyi as a vassal state of Wu.
And this step of stationing troops in Dongyi has been completed in a roundabout way.
After the news of Qilu's peace spread, some Dongyi tribal elders proposed to dissolve the alliance and restore the inherent tribal rule, and the Dongyi queen Yingchan'er obviously did not want to give up the power in her hands, and began to send her cronies to spread rumors everywhere, claiming that the Dongyi people's feud Qi State would take a breather and inevitably send troops to occupy Dongyi again and take away the last habitat of the Dongyi people.
And Liang Huzi also tried his best to cooperate, and the bandits who were able to spread their feet and the bandits who gathered in the mountains and forests inside Dongyi were running around, but they were not easily annihilated, maintaining the turmoil in Dongyi and raising bandits for self-respect.
In Wuguo, taking advantage of the opportunity of many industries to stop in winter and have sufficient manpower, we will step up the speed of various capital construction, and reserve conditions for the revitalization of all industries in the spring of next year.
It's snowing, and the snowflakes are drifting at the head of Gusu City.
The first snow is always loved, but it is snowing here, and it is conceivable in the north, except for the grain purchased from Chu at a high price, which is still transported to Wu from two secret passages on land and water, the transportation of other ways has stopped.
Qingji personally rushed to the head of the city, received the last grain carts from the north, and then drove back to Miyagi.
The road has been dyed with a thick layer of white, and walking on it is like stepping on soft cotton wool.
The air is fresh and sweet, and some children run out into the streets to play in the snowflakes, and sometimes groups of young girls also run into the streets with friends and friends, and have fun throwing snowballs.
Qingji sat in the car, rolled up one side of the curtain, smiled and looked at the scene in Gusu City, Fan Li sat on the other side, and lost no time in reporting to him the problems encountered in the reform and innovation, and suggestions for solving the problems.
"The king, the people, the merchants, and the slaves are the most basic members of the people of the Wu State.
The Shu people were engaged in farming, and in addition to paying taxes, they also had to bear forced labor.
At present, we have reduced the taxes on the people's forced labor, provided all kinds of production tools at low prices, recruited immigrants from various countries, carved out wasteland, encouraged reclamation, and implemented all kinds of measures to benefit the people. ” "Well, what about business?"
"Many of the commercial workers are still just engaged in the industry, and the income is not enough to support their families, so their families still have to cultivate the land granted by the imperial court in order to live.
Now it seems that this will be unbearable for many new practitioners, so the staff of the department is redefining, and those who have just engaged in business and commerce will be taxed according to the Ding, and their families will still be taxed and served as farmers. ” Qingji smiled and said: "One family, two systems, well, it should be like this, be flexible, even if it takes more effort to count and manage, it is always beneficial for the people to do things more carefully." ” Qingji said as he stretched out a hand out of the window and took a few snowflakes in the palm of his hand, and the snowflakes quickly melted into a few crystal droplets.
There were a few maidens who threw snowballs, and one of them missed and hit the chariot of the king, and the samurai raised their spears and glared at the maidens in a threatening manner, but the maidens were not afraid, stuck out their tongues at them, made faces, and then beckoned to their most amiable king.
Qingji smiled at them and beckoned to them, causing the girls to faint almost happily.
Fan Li also smiled: "The king often walks in the market, and these girls are not afraid."
The king, about the industrial and commercial people, there is still one matter, which is also the old system of the Wu State, and it needs to be decided by the king to change. ” "Speak" "Yes, a businessman, once registered, has a hereditary status and cannot change his occupation at will.
As a result, some people who want to work in business are discouraged, and some people who are working in the business industry and want to change their status are suffering from the difficulty of changing their current occupation."
"Cancel this one" Qingji interrupted him and said: "Many of the businessmen who are skilled craftsmen and good at management have made great fortunes, and they are either extremely talented themselves, or after they have the conditions, they can make their children and grandchildren read poetry and books, and have the ability to become officials, but they are not allowed to develop because of their status.

Wu Guo is the only one to use, the only to move, regardless of the background, this old rule must be abolished. ” "Yes, after the minister has drawn up the detailed rules, he will ask the king to look at it.
Besides, it's about slaves.
In accordance with the king's will, the ministers drew up detailed regulations that in the future, no slaves should be bought or sold, nor should they sell themselves as slaves, and existing slaves could be deducted from taxes by serving in the army, and those who served in the army and made meritorious contributions should be abolished by the imperial court as slaves, and they should be able to convert one of them into commoners as soon as possible.
Nowadays there are many slaves in both private and government homes.
Concubines, servants, and servants are generally engaged in domestic service, while shepherds and concubines are slaves who are in charge of herding cattle and horses.
There is a group of skilled slaves in the government, and the private slaves must be turned into commoners slowly, and the slaves in the government are only in the king's words.
However, at present, money is used everywhere, and if all of them are immediately released as commoners, then they will have to pay a large amount of wages if they are needed to work in the future.
The ministers mean that they can change their identities after the situation in the court improves. ” "Of course, if you are in a hurry, good intentions will also do bad things.
The release of slaves for the people, firstly, in order to no longer have tens of thousands of domestic slaves, and the family giants who often turn slaves into soldiers and threaten the rule of the imperial court; the second is to increase the number of agricultural and industrial practitioners, increase the cultivation of strong men, increase the base of conscription, and increase the tax of the imperial court; Everything is based on the stability and development of the state of Wu, and what is not suitable for implementation now, even if it is an order of the widow, it can be changed. ” The two of them talked all the way into the palace.
When they arrived at the council hall, Shu Ke and Shen Sheng, two people from the temple, rushed up to sweep the snow off their robes for the king and Fan Shaozai, and the two entered the hall and took off their boots and sat down.
There are four big copper tripods in the hall, the charcoal fire is booming, burning the hall is warm, Qingji called the dining room to send some food, and Fan Li ate together, the two chatted casually, the meal was about to be eaten, a guard hurriedly went to the palace and handed Qingji a secret letter.
Qingji put down his chopsticks, opened the letter and read it, and said with a smile: "Lu Guo Kong Zhongni opened a killing spree on the Jiagu Alliance, making the monarch of Qi disgraced, this effort was not in vain, Lu Guojun is trying to discourage public opinion, and is insisting on promoting him to be the chief priest of Lu Guo." ” Fan Li said with a smile: "Kong Qiu is known as a virtuous person, and he is not afraid of the powerful, and the Jiagu Guild has shown his determination to kill.
Speaking from the heart, if you are in charge of the criminal law, you should also be a big priest, but Sanhuan may not be willing to let go, now it depends on how determined Lu Jun is to resist the pressure from Sanhuan. ” Qingji smiled: "In the opinion of the widow, Kong Qiu's most suitable official is Taishi, and the others are worse." ” Taishi, in the third dynasty of the Xia and Shang dynasties, was the chief of historians and officials.
He was in charge of drafting documents, advising on doctors, recording historical events, and managing classics, calendars, and rituals, as well as managing school education.
When Qingji said this, he suddenly remembered a record about Confucius in his mind, Confucius was photographed by the great priest, the government, and the seven said that he was punished by the young man, and he was killed under the two views, and the corpse was in the court.
He didn't remember it so clearly, but it was roughly what it meant, as if Confucius's student Zigong had also asked the teacher for the reason for the killing.
It's not good, Kong Qiu and Shao Zheng Mao are the two big people in Lu State, Kong Qiu advocates retro, Shao Zheng Mao advocates innovation, it is a natural rival, and Kong Qiu has not eaten turtles in Shao Zheng Mao's hands.
If Kong Qiu still became the chief priest according to the course of history, would he have announced a personal vendetta and killed Shao Zhengmao?
