King Wei Hui sent a personal eunuch to pass on the message, this face is big enough, and Zhuangzi can see it if he doesn't want to see it.
Accompanied by Hui Shi, he got into the carriage brought by the eunuch and went to the palace of King Wei Hui.
The girder of the capital of Wei State looks very deserted and depressed.
I remember the first time I came to Daliang, there were people coming and going in Daliang City, and it was very lively.
It can be seen that the impact of the war on Wei is very large.
Wei was a predatory state, and since the time of King Hui of Wei, its main source of economy has been war and plunder.
Looting property from a defeated country and collecting taxes or reparations from a defeated country.
Otherwise, Wei would not return the occupied land.
In order to calm the people, save face, and complete the ancestral industry, the defeated country had to exchange silver or property with Wei in exchange for the land that originally belonged to them.
There is really no way to change it, and that piece of land can only belong to the Wei State.
Just like the Qin State back then, he couldn't beat others, and he had no money to exchange, so he could only give the land west of the river to the Wei State.
Relying on such means, the Wei State quickly developed into the overlord of the Central Plains and quickly became powerful.
Today's Wei State, after the Battle of Maling, lost 300,000 elite soldiers, which can be regarded as a complete defeat. 300,000 elite soldiers, in that era when the population is comprehensive national strength, what kind of concept it is, can be imagined.
The decline in population is also an important reason for the desertion of the capital.
After the defeat of the Wei State, commerce was basically abolished, so there were not many merchants who came.
The shops on the street, although their doors are still open, have few customers except for the shopkeeper and his associates.
When I arrived at the dormitory, it was already afternoon.
Hearing that Zhuangzi was coming, King Wei Hui rarely left the throne and welcomed Zhuangzi and Hui Shi out of the dormitory, welcoming Zhuangzi and Hui Shi into the dormitory.
Once the king of Wei Hui would not do this.
Once upon a time, King Wei Hui was begged by others, and he sat on the throne with his eyes looking directly at others, and others did not dare to look at him.
Today, King Wei Hui welcomed Zhuangzi into the palace like an old friend.
Zhuangzi found that this dormitory was not the one he had come to a few years ago.
Ever since King Wei Hui became the queen, everything has been dressed up according to the king's hierarchy.
The king's chamber was much taller, much more magnificent, and much more splendid.
This reminded him of following his master Yang Zhu to the dormitory of the Son of Heaven of the Great Zhou Dynasty when he was a teenager, and the dormitory of the Son of Heaven was nothing more than that.
"Zhuangzi, you have to stay this time, last time the widow kept you, did you say that you were going to go to the Qi country, you said that you were going to get married, did the widow let you go."
King Wei Hui said as he walked.
When he came to the throne, King Wei Hui sat down and asked the eunuchs to arrange seats for Zhuangzi and Hui Shi.
Then he beckoned the eunuch to prepare the food and drinks.
Zhuangzi followed King Wei Hui into the palace, and everything was carried out according to the courtier's courtesy, as if he were a courtier of Wei.
When King Wei Hui, Hui Shi and the eunuch saw this, they couldn't believe it.
In their impressions and heard, Zhuangzi is a Taoist, and Taoism is very casual.
But the Zhuangzi in front of him understands everything.
After the politeness on the scene, it gets to the point.
Zhuangzi said: "I have sworn in front of Song Jun that I will not be an official and will not leave the Song Kingdom" King Wei Hui's face changed, and he interrupted: "That is an oath made in front of Song Quecheng, not counting Song Quecheng, he is still a marquis, and he has not yet been crowned a king."
"But I" King Wei Hui interrupted again: "Are you worried about whether your family has nothing to do with me, I will send someone to bring them to Wei State, and Wei Country will be your home in the future."
"This, this, this" Zhuangzi looked sincerely frightened, first bowed to King Wei Hui, and then hurriedly left his seat and kowtowed to the throne of King Wei Hui.
"Zhuang Zhou is incompetent, Zhuang Zhou is incompetent, Zhuang Zhou is incompetent, Zhuang Zhou is incompetent, Zhuang Zhou is incompetent, Zhuang Zhou is incompetent, and he is afraid of losing the king.
Woowoo" "Zhuangzi get up" King Wei Hui was very disappointed when he saw Zhuangzi looking like a wasteland.
I thought: Is this still the same Zhuangzi of the year?
Zhuangzi back then, although he was young, although he didn't take him seriously at the time, he still teased him with Pang Juan.
But the Zhuangzi of that year was neither humble nor arrogant, and his bearing was extraordinary.
In terms of knowledge and insights, he also has a set.
Seriously, for many years after that, he still remembered what he said.
There are really many things that have been influenced by him.

To be honest, the later strength of the Wei State has something to do with him.
Since that conversation with Zhuangzi, he has recuperated and rarely waged war.
It was precisely because of the lack of large-scale wars that the Wei State became stronger.
But now Zhuangzi has become a wreck "Zhuang Zhou is incompetent, unable to repay his father's nurturing kindness, unable to protect his wife, and unable to keep his children safe.
Zhuang Zhou can't even take care of his own home, where did he get his talent Although Zhuang Zhou is the inheritor of Taoist doctrine, since Zhuang Zhou came back, the Taoist protectors have left me, and the Taoist family has also dispersed because of this, Zhuang Zhou is incompetent, and there is no great talent for governing the country King Xie gave Zhuang Zhou so much gold and silver brocade silk, King Xie Zhuang Zhou is a villain with a vain name and can't live.
When I got home, I didn't have any money.
Zhuang Zhou can't even manage his family, where can there be any great talents in governing the country In terms of governing the country and diplomatic relations, Wei is full of talents.
Wen has Huizi, and Wu has the general Long Jia, they are all great talents.
Besides, the king, you are wise and decisive, the territory of Wei is not large, but it is the overlord of the Central Plains.
The King" King Wei Hui's face was ugly, and he was very disappointed and angry when he saw Zhuangzi's ruined appearance.
But when I think of myself now, I inevitably feel the same way. used to be so low Yes, Zhuangzi was persecuted by Song Juecheng, his two wives died, and the Taoist family was dispersed, what else could he do, he was still high-spirited "Get up, the Zhuangzi widow sincerely asks for advice from you, and the widow believes in your talent."
At the request of King Wei Hui, Zhuangzi kowtowed, got up and returned to his seat.
Zhuangzi also found it strange, but it didn't feel strange when he thought about it.
The King of Wei back then, singing and harmonizing with Pang Juan, was really like that, and he didn't take others seriously.
But today's King Wei Hui is so patient.
If there are two people before and after, the changes are so big.
He even suspected that if he had done this before, maybe under Pang Juan's bewitchment, it would have been possible to kill him.
Killing him won't kill him, at least not taking him seriously.
And now King Wei Hui is very patient.
In that case, let's talk about it aa2705221:
