When I was in Qin Dynasty, I lost contact with the wave

Chapter 625 King Wei: My family has been weird for generations?

Daliang, Wei Palace
Although Daliang City was tightly besieged, we could see from the sentry tower that the Qin army had been recruiting civilians to the front lines in recent days. Naturally, we noticed something unusual, especially the fact that so many soldiers and civilians had gathered near the divide. Now, both the government and the public have made rough guesses about this.

There were many people in the government and the public who knew about Lord Xinling's last memorial before his death. Daliang City had to worry about flooding every year, so naturally there were many people in the city who were proficient in water conservancy.

However, when Lord Anling came to the palace of Wei to discuss the matter with King Zeng of Wei, he suddenly encountered two mastiff dogs rushing out of the palace.

The two mastiffs were much larger than ordinary dogs. If they stood up, they would be as tall as an adult man. They opened their big mouths and pounced on the not-so-young Prime Minister of Wei State with a strong dog smell.

"Protect Xiangbang!"

As the Prime Minister of Wei State, in addition to the bodyguards attached to the Prime Minister, Anling Jun also had two first-rate warriors and six second-rate warriors to protect him. The four second-rate warriors immediately slashed out with one sword and killed the two mastiffs. Cutting him in the back, he didn't give these two vicious dogs a chance to do more harm.

An Lingjun on the side looked at the dog corpse that had been chopped into several sections. He was still a little shocked, his face was pale, he kept beating his chest and breathing heavily.

Unlike the guards who were puzzled by the sudden appearance of two muscular mastiffs from the palace of Wei, he knew the origins of these mastiffs, but it was also because he knew the origins of these mastiffs that he was really shocked. , thinking that the one in the palace wanted his life.

There is a precedent for using vicious dogs to kill powerful officials!

When the Jin Kingdom was not yet divided, the trend of raising dogs was popular throughout the Jin Kingdom, and the royal family and officials were no exception. At that time, Duke Linggong of Jin set out vicious dogs to kill Zhao Dun because he hated him. If he hadn't The guards on Zhao Dun's left and right fought desperately to intercept Zhao Dun, regardless of their lives. Zhao Dun was probably eaten by vicious dogs, but the guards also suffered heavy casualties, and Zhao Dun also escaped from the Jin Kingdom with narrow escapes.

The person who raised vicious dogs for Jin Linggong was also infamous in later generations. He wiped out the entire Zhao family, but Tu Anjia was also praised as a loyal minister by many historians.

Later, the three families were divided into the Jin Dynasty. Because of the vicious dog killing of Zhao Dun, the Zhao royal family hated dogs very much. All words about dogs were given the word "evil". Except for the hunting dogs of folk hunters, the royal family never banned dogs.

However, the royal families of Korea and Wei developed an admiration for magical dogs. They loved dogs and became the home of famous dogs in the world, especially the mysterious breeds, which are better for their strong bodies and fierceness.

The Korean royal family has Han Lu, a large black-haired dog; the Song Dynasty's official family has Song Hui (que, second tone), also known as Jun dog, which means that it can serve others like a horse.

But at that time, the most famous dogs in the world were the Laimao (li, second tone) dog of the Zhou royal family in Luoyang and the Wei Mastiff of the Wei state.

Later in the Western Jin Dynasty, Zhang Hua's "Natural History: Research on Names of Things" said: "The dog is four feet tall and the mastiff is not stretched out." When a mastiff pounces on a person, its limbs are stretched out as much as an adult man's. .

The ferocity of the Wei Mastiff is the most popular among dogs in the world, and it has become famous especially in recent years when it was raised by the Crown Prince of Wei himself.

There was such a precedent, and it was a Wei Mastiff raised by the prince himself. How could Lord Anling not be worried that King Zeng of Wei was going to kill him?
"My prince's beloved dog!"

Prince Wei of Wei came one after another, but An Lingjun breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing Wei Ji dressed in the prince's clothes, he didn't care about the mud and blood stains on the dog's corpse. He cried bitterly while holding his pet dog, staring with red eyes. When he turned to himself, Lord Anling felt relieved.

It seems that the mastiff raised by the prince accidentally ran out of the Mastiff Palace and happened to meet him.

Speaking of the Mastiff Palace, Lord Anling also had a headache.

Wei Jiu was very fond of Wei Mastiffs. King Zeng of Wei had been weak and sick since he was a child. He was worried that he would not enjoy a long life, so he made a prince early. However, he was also worried that the prince would not be able to handle state affairs. When Wei Jiu was twelve years old, he allowed Wei Jiu to choose as many as he wanted within the royal city. A consul from an official office to test his will and talent. Wei Jia didn't hesitate at all and immediately asked to be appointed as the "Yu Ren".

Yuren's Office is the palace office in charge of the king's hunting. It has a garden under its jurisdiction dedicated to raising hounds.

Wei Jie was fascinated by Yu Ren's Office, but he was actually fascinated by Hound Garden. King Jing Hua didn't know the reason, so he greatly admired the young prince's ambition to cultivate himself, bow and horse, and believed that his son would be able to hone his battlefield skills in the hunting and become the hero of the rejuvenated Wei Dynasty.

Over the years, Prince Wei has managed the hound garden to become world-famous. What was once a garden with only dozens of hounds has turned into an extremely spectacular Wei Mastiff Palace.

As the prince, Wei Jia also set strict rules for the selection of mastiffs. Only those who were still four feet tall when squatting on the ground could enter the Mastiff Palace and be named Wei Mastiff. Otherwise, they would all be called hounds, not mastiffs.

Only because of this, the reputation of Wei Mastiff shocked the world. The sensual sons and daughters of the royal families of various countries, the nobles of the world, and the big businessmen all feel proud to buy dogs when they go to Daliang to buy a Wei Mastiff.

As a prince, no matter how busy the government affairs are, every time a Wei Mastiff is sold, no matter how important the government affairs are, he must personally negotiate with the buyer about the mastiff and check whether the buyer has the ambition to love dogs and the talent to raise dogs, otherwise Even if the buyer offered a large amount of money, Wei Jia would refuse without exception.

However, with the help of the Wei Mastiff, Wei Jie also expanded a lot of contacts among various countries, and even elevated the Wei Mastiff to a diplomatic level for a time, and presented Wei Mastiffs to Qi Wang Jian and Qi Prime Minister Hou Sheng and many other Qi ministers for reconciliation. This made Wei Wangzeng mistakenly believe that his son had a plan to raise dogs, and he allowed Wei to raise dogs even more.

Wei Jie did not live up to his high expectations and became more and more ridiculous. After each Wei Mastiff's business was completed, he would hold a farewell banquet for the Wei Mastiff who was about to leave, and would also lock an unarmed swordsman with the Wei Mastiff. , allowing the Wei Mastiff to kill and eat up the unarmed swordsman before leaving.

On the day of handing over the mastiff, Wei Jia also had to be present in person and sent the big mastiff out of the Mastiff Palace before stroking its head and back and saying goodbye with tears.

People who disdain Wei Jie secretly call Wei Jie "Wei Mastiff" instead, but Wei Jie not only does not feel dissatisfied, but feels proud of it.

As the prime minister and the elder of the clan, Lord Anling naturally had the obligation to teach the prince, but no matter how much Lord Anling persuaded him, Wei Jie still went his own way.

Wang Zeng of Wei also felt that raising dogs was harmless, not to mention that it had indeed brought tangible benefits to Wei State. He also advised Lord Anling to teach the prince more about how to handle government affairs and not to hold on to "little things".

Looking at Wei Jia holding the sharp sword on his waist, his eyes full of uncontrollable murderous intent, as if he wanted to eat his flesh and sleep on his skin, Lord Anling couldn't help but feel more and more sad.

Now that all the troops are approaching the city, the Wei State will be in ruins. This Wei Jie still hugs the Wei Mastiff all day long and does not let go. It is really ridiculous. He does not look like a prince!
As a king, it’s okay to have your own little quirks, but they can’t be evil ones!

The decline of temples has always been related to the evil habits of kings.

Since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there have been many kings with evil habits.

King Kuai of Yan was fond of the ancient false reputation, and he caused great chaos in the Yan Kingdom; King Huanhui of Han was fond of power and strategy, and used waterworks to tire out the Qin Dynasty with a funny plan to save Han; King Xuan of Qi was good at academics, and he nourished scholars instead of using them; King Xuan of Chu was good at astrology, so he God's will determines the way of diplomatic relations...Although all this and so on are also absurd, they are generally consistent with the preference for the right path.

Only this king of Wei, King Hui of Wei, had evil habits for generations to come.

King Hui of Wei loves jewelry, King Xiang of Wei loves stallions, King Ai of Wei loves craftsmen, King Zhao of Wei loves warriors, King Anli of Wei loves handsome men and beauties, King Zeng of Wei loves elixirs, and now the crown prince of Wei also loves mastiffs. Dog, how long will the peace of this country last?
