Chapter 61 Feast

The left and right men stood outside the curtain, but the curtain was pulled up by the maid, and only the sound inside could be heard, and the spiritual squid was almost naked. But it was strange that there was still a sound in the tent before, but in the end there was no sound.

"Mother, Mother..." Zhao Qian rushed in with a crying voice. Miao Chang wanted to stop him, but Miao Chang was too old and could not stop him at all. When the heavy curtain was lifted, Ling Qi lay peacefully on the bed, her bedding was a little messy, and Xiong Jing stood beside the bed, watching Zhao Qian pounce on Ling Qi and crying.

The crying caused Zhao ministers outside the tent to wail. They thought the spiritual cord had passed away, but Xiong Jing quietly left the tent amid the cry of the people and slowly walked out of the tent. The two historians followed him, not understanding why.

"What do the Empress Dowager ask for?" Zhuang Wudi also climbed the shore. When he saw Xiong Jing coming out, he asked anxiously.

"The Empress Dowager has not passed away, so I have nothing to ask for." Xiong Jing replied with a stern face, and his expression was not clear in the dusk.

Xiong Jing's answer was unresponsive. He said: "I was wronged before. Now I know that Zhao Jia's party is close to Rongdi and far away from China. He must not make him king, and Zhao Qian should be the king of Zhao."

"Dear Rong Di?" Xiong Jing was stunned and nodded slightly.

"Yes." The news sent by Daliang had just arrived, and Zhuang Wudi had been struggling with this matter. Without knowing Zhao Jia, he suggested that Xiong Jing kill Zhao Qian and establish Zhao Jia, which was indeed a mistake.

Before the capital of Zhao State, Handan, the focus was on Jinyang. Jinyang was Taiyuan, and many Rongdi lived here. Unlike the familiar Taiyuan name in later generations, the Hu people all called Jinyang Daxia. Daxia and the Kingdom of Baktria were the same name, so they naturally had a close relationship with the Hu people.

In general, Zhao State is a dual kingdom formed by the integration of plains, counties and nomadic areas and plateaus. The closer it is to China, the more developed the agriculture is; the closer it is to the Great Wall, the more developed the animal husbandry. Zhao State is a combination of farming culture in the Central Plains and nomadic culture in the grassland.

The migration to Handan was a pro-China act, and the Hu clothing and cavalry were a pro-Rong Di act. King Wuling of Zhao wanted to divide the State of Zhao into two and hand over the land of the deposed crown prince Zhang, which was also a pro-Rong Di act. It is also a pro-Rong Di act. It is worth noting that the plains of Zhao State had a long time ago, and the land of the land was not changed until after King Wuling of Zhao died, and the time of King Huiwen of Zhao was changed.

The battle between the two forces was not until King Wuling of Zhao and Prince Zhang, who was enfeoffed in Daidi, died, and another round of victory was decided. Even so, Daidi was still different from the counties and counties in the southern plains, so that Li Mu could "buy officials at a cheap price, and rent all the markets and rents into the shogunate."

Appointing officials and intercepting market rents was originally the power of a fiefdom, because the Dai land was a semi-independent fiefdom during the reign of King Wuling of Zhao and even before. It was only because King Wuling of Zhao and Prince Zhang died and lost power in the court that the fiefdom was changed to a county.

This is also one of the reasons why the Zhao army cavalry did not appear in the Battle of Changping. The newly ascension King Xiaocheng of Zhao may not be able to mobilize the Daidi army. From the fiefdom of the country to be demoted to the county, the Daidi nobles were already extremely dissatisfied. Maybe they hoped that the Handan court would suffer a defeat. The more south the Handan court would occupy more cities and land, the more resources they would have to buy and suppress them. Instead, they would have to rely on them and lose the ability to suppress them.

The most basic thing that Li Mu could mobilize the Daidi Army was to take part of the power of the feudal state from Handan to Daidi. The reason why King Xiaocheng of Zhao sent someone to serve Li Mu was to take back the power of "price-price officials, and all the rents in the market were to join the shogunate". As a result, Zhao generals who replaced Li Mu could not defeat the Huns and were defeated in the battle. So King Xiaocheng of Zhao had to send Li Mu to Zhao again. Li Mu's so-called "the king must use his ministers, and the ministers should be the same as before" actually wanted the power of the feudal state again, and King Xiaocheng of Zhao could only agree.

The struggle between the two forces in Zhao has been a long time. Faced with Qin, the real ally of Chu was Zhao Qian, who represented the court of Handan, rather than Zhao Jia, who represented the nobles of Dai. If Qin sent envoys to Dai and made an appointment with Dai people to live together, Zhao Jia might not have led his troops to attack Qin.

Zhuang Wudi's cold weather made a cold sweat. As a Chu man, he still lacked understanding of Zhao State. Xiong Jing was also sweating all over. He almost couldn't control himself in the curtain just now. No, to be precise, he could no longer control him. It was Zhao Qian's cry that woke him up. He was immersed in the scene, unable to tell whether this was the temptation of the spiritual sleeve or an accident, but no matter what, the long and tender white legs of the spiritual sleeve were engraved in his mind and could not be removed.

After sleepless all night, the morning of the "accident", Yingli came to report that the fever of Queen Mother Zhao had subsided. Yan Shi said that Queen Mother Zhao was hungry and wanted to eat, so she ate half a cup of corn porridge, drank several bowls of pulp, and had fallen asleep peacefully. Although her condition improved, the Zhou team still stayed in Rongze for a day and set off for Daliang early the third morning.

From Handan to Rongkou is the opposite river, and from Rongkou to Daliang is the right river. Before dark, Wang Zhou arrived at Daliang, and Wei Wang Wei Zeng had been waiting in the suburbs for a long time. After the people arrived, they used carriages and horses to carry Xiong Jing, Lingzhi, Zhao Qian and others into the southern city of Daliang.

The gathering of the three kings was an event that had not been in a century. As a landlord, the State of Wei was to make a big fuss to increase the power of the Three Kingdoms. When everyone entered the royal city and entered the slept with meat soup, the bed was filled with bells. Wei Chen, wearing court robbery, was ward off the seat and saluted the kings under the leadership of the prime minister Cai Wen. The spiritual sleeves were not there, and Wei Zeng held Zhao Qian's hand and welcomed him into the seat.

"The beauty of Changdi is not bad. No one is as good as brothers today. The power of death is the same as that of Kong Huai, brothers, Yuanli, brothers, seeking..." It is rare that Wei Zeng even started to recite poems and recite poems at the feast. It was the legacy of the Western Zhou Dynasty and the Spring and Autumn Period. During the Warring States Period, there were few or even no longer chanting poems. This poem "Changdi" expresses the life and death between brothers.

‘When the tall Tangdi tree flowers bloom, the calyx and stems are so brilliant and vivid. The feelings between people in the world are not as love and blind date as brothers.’

‘When the great moment of life and death comes, brothers always care deeply about each other. No matter who is wandering in a foreign land and throwing corpses, another person has to find him after all his hard work…’

Wei and Zhao were in the Three Jin Dynasties. Although they had time to attack each other, they faced the Qin State, which was eyeing them with great difficulty, and finally formed an alliance to resist Qin. Combined with Zhong Le, Wei Zeng's chanting made people sad and tearful, and exciting.

The infantry of Wei State was not accustomed to warships, and the boat troops could not fight on land, so Xiong Jing refused to send troops. Although he could not fight with the Zhao people, Wei State spared no effort to move south to resettle Zhao people. Now the Zhao people who moved to Daliang ate not the corn from Chu, but the corn from Wei State, and the houses and tents they lived in were also provided by Wei State. Wei State did regard Zhao as a brother.

After the King of Wei finished singing, the Grand Tutor Guo Kai, on behalf of Zhao Qian, sang "博bian".博 is also a poem that recites brotherly feelings, which is the brother who praises the owner's elder brother as the banquet attending the banquet.博博博 means a white deer-skin hat with angular edges.

Wei and Zhao expressed their brotherhood to each other, almost leaving Xiong Jing aside. Xiong Jing was not feeling uncomfortable, Zhuang Wudi, Zuo Shi and others looked unhappy. The people who saved Zhao were the Chu army, and the people who moved south were also Chu Zhouji, but Wei and Zhao were telling the brotherhood. However, after Guo Kai sang, the tune of Zhong music changed, and they immediately smiled, which was to chant "Fake Music" (Fake Tongjia).

"A gentleman who is a good person shows virtue and is suitable for the people and is suitable for the people. He receives the salary from heaven, protects his right order and expels it from heaven.

Thousands of fortunes and hundreds of blessings, and hundreds of billions of descendants. Emperor Mu Mu, the king is suitable for the king, and he will not forget his mistakes, and he will follow the old chapter..."

"The rich and elegant King of Zhou has the beautiful political ethics admired by all people. If you follow the people and the nobles, you will get thousands of blessings and honors from God. God will protect you and give you the orders, and more blessings and honors will be added to God."

‘You pursue hundreds of blessings and wealth, and you have multiplied hundreds of billions of descendants. You always maintain a solemn and elegant image, and can be called a qualified prince or king. You never violate the law or act boldly, and you seriously follow the rules of the ancestors in everything...’

This is a flattery poem by princes praising the Zhou emperor. Xiong Jing felt a little trembling when he heard it. If he really wanted a hundred billion children, he had to extract a lot of body fluids to make up so many children. He was dissatisfied, but Zhuang Wudi, Zuoshi and others were full of hearts. The song "Fake Music" was sung, which was equivalent to the King of Zhao's beating for the King of Qin.

When the "Fake Music" was about to be finished, the right historian on the side reminded, "The king should be the gift of returning."

"How to return the gift?" The rituals and music are complicated, and Da Ya, Xiao Yali's poems cannot be sang randomly, and Xiong Jing is not sure which poem should be used to return the gift.

"In this situation, the king should reward the minister who defeated Qin and saved Zhao Yougong. "Tong Bow" must be "Tong Bow"." Yixian frowned. In fact, "Tong Bow" is not suitable. "Tong Bow" is a poem by the emperor to invite the princes and reward the princes' bows and arrows. Xiong Jing is not the master, so it seems rude to seize the master with guests.

"It is like chanting "Yu Li"." Zuo Shi said. "Yu Li" is used to express the richness of the feast and the host's diligence in treating guests.

"The "Yu Li" is a common poem for feasting, which is not appropriate." Yi Xian was not satisfied with "Yu Li". "Yu Li" was too ordinary. It was just a poem by ordinary guests to thank the host, which did not reflect the status of the princes of Chu.

The two argued beside Xiong Jing. "Fake Music" had been finished long ago. King Wei and King Zhao, and the ministers who attended the banquet all looked at Xiong Jing who was eating meat, and they didn't understand why the King of Chu did not return the gift.

"The king should recite poems and rituals." Chang Jiang told him softly.

"What poems do you sing?" Xiong Jing was really hungry, and the historians on both sides did not reach a conclusion, so he could only eat meat first.

"The king should chant "Tong Bow"..." Yixian still insisted on his own point of view.

"The Tonggong is not in line with you, so you should recite "Yu Li"." Zuo Shi was young and usually gave in to the Right Shi, but this time he became stubborn.

Xiong Jing looked at Changjiang, and Changjiang whispered: "It's also the "Yu Li".

"Yu Li" is indeed a very ordinary feasting poem. When the bell music was played, some doctors were already singing silently, but no one expected that what Xiong Jing sang was not "Yu Li" at all, but another poem that he had never heard of.
