Controlling mountains and rivers since the Warring States Period

Chapter 131 The Prince Dies (Part )

“There are still not enough people…”

"The days ahead will probably be very difficult."

Gongzi Chao originally thought that this place was just full of barbarians, but who knew it was another "Spring and Autumn Period Kingdoms".

Qin You said, "What are you afraid of?"

"Even if chaos really breaks out, we'd be dead long ago!"

"What else can the deceased ancestors do to help their descendants?"

"As long as we can find a way to make the New Xia last longer, so that we can enjoy more sacrifices from our descendants in the ancestral temple, that will be enough!"

"Anyway, the road from Xinxia to Zhuxia is now clear."

"If it doesn't work, let the descendants run back to their hometown!"

Gongzi Chao thought about it and felt that Qin You was right.

There are escape routes on both sides, and people have two legs. If you encounter a problem and can't solve it, can't you just run away?
He's almost dying, why worry about him so much?
So he stopped complaining, just coughed a few times, and asked Qin You to open the door and call the people outside in.

The new king of Xia, who had been elected by the people and had accepted Gongzi Chao's abdication, walked in front, followed by Gongzi Chao's descendants.

The new monarch,
They are the descendants of Suichao.

That old guy said that he disliked the local barbarian women because they were not pretty enough, but when he was in his fifties, he cheered up and gave birth to an heir for Gongzi Chao.

Gongzi Chao took the new monarch's hand and said something to him, which was nothing more than asking him to focus on developing the country.

"You are a steady and capable person, so I have no qualms about handing the country over to you."

"But I still want to remind you not to wantonly invade the surrounding areas just because your country is strong, and don't abandon your roots just to consolidate your rule for a while."

"The atmosphere here is more about empty talk than reality, which is detrimental to people's hearts."

"I am in the ancestral temple, and I still hope that my descendants can wear Chinese clothing and play Chinese music to worship me!"

The new king was so moved that he shed tears and agreed.

Then, the young master walked towards his descendants who were in tears.

Gongzi Chao called out to his eldest son, "Come back!"

The eldest son Zhao Gui stepped forward and held his father's hand.

Gongzi Chao murmured to him, "You must remember this!"

"Your surname is Ying, clan Zhao."

"Your surname comes from Zaofu, who lived six hundred years ago."

"Your last name comes from Bo Yi, who lived two thousand years ago."

"Your bloodline comes from Zhuanxu, one of the Five Emperors."

"You must inherit my legacy, live up to this noble bloodline, and continue to reproduce in New Xia."

"Yes Yes!"

Zhao Gui cried and said, "How dare I forget my ancestors and where I came from?"

So, Gongzi Chao let go of his last concern before his death.

He just couldn't help but think about his youth.

He thought to himself:
"I really want to go back to Zhongmu and see the streets there."

"I really want to go back to Gaolang and swim in the Guan River..."

The big turtle lying in the Guan River,

Are you still soaking in the water and coaxing the children?
What a pity!

I no longer have the strength to walk back to Zhuxia.

……

"Big fish, big fish!"

"Did the man you're talking about really go far to the west?"

Qi State,

He Bo turned into a fish and was swimming on his back in the Ji River.

There was a little boy sitting next to him, taking off his shoes and soaking his feet in the water.

"Yup!"

He Bo lay with his belly facing the sky, and his bright white scales reflected a strange light.

She is really fat and white.

He was still swimming on his back in the water, and it looked like he was dying.

It is especially easy to attract greedy children who come to play by the water.

And so it is.

A few days ago, a group of children came to play by the Ji River and met He Bo.

The little boy in the lead couldn't help but pick up a long stick and hit He Bo.

While digging, he and his friends planned how to eat the fish later. He Bo couldn't stand being poked by the stick, so he turned over.

Water!

The little boy rolled on the ground after being sprayed.

The boys nearby scattered.

There was no shouting of "friendship" or "bond" or anything like that, as they rushed over to fight monsters and save their companions.

The little boy fell to the ground and screamed.

After He Bo kicked the kindergartener and scared the primary school students to tears, he turned over and basked in his belly, with no intention of paying any attention to him.

The child, who had been howling for a long time, crawled up, sniffed his nose, and swore that he would make the monster in the Jishui River pay for its debt with water.

Then, after some pulling,
The two sides got to know each other and became friends.

Children love listening to stories told by this big fish that can swim anywhere following the current.

And He Bo naturally,
Then he talked about Gongzi Chao who vowed to travel around the world.

The child stepped on the water and said to He Bo, who was swimming on his back like a dead fish, "If he has gone west, then I will go east!"

"Didn't you say before that there are many islands and new continents on the other side of the sea?"

Hearing this, He Bo's fish eyes flashed with light, and he stuck his head out to look up at the child, "You?"

"The ocean is really big, and it requires a big ship!"

"It's me!"

The child put his hands on his hips proudly, "I am the son of the Tian family!"

He Bo spat at him, "Go to hell, the Tian family has too many sons!"

More than a hundred years ago,

During the reign of Duke Ping of Qi, Tian Chengzi did something amazing in order to further gain power in Qi.

He selected women from Qi who were over seven feet tall as concubines, and had a harem of hundreds of people, but he did not prohibit guests and servants from entering and leaving the harem.

When he died, he already had more than seventy sons. If you include the daughters who were married off to alliances, the number exceeded one hundred!

This spirit of being willing to dye one's own hair red just to expand the Tian family so that he could enfeoff his sons and occupy the land of Qi State really moved the world.

of course,

Considering the popular party culture among the nobles of Qi State, He Bo also needs to consider whether Tian Chengzi has a special hobby and is just taking advantage of the situation to express it.

but no matter,
The Tian family did indeed grow in number and strength.

At this moment,

They even reproduced too much and the population has overflowed!
Some Tian clans were high up in the government.

Some of the Tian family ended up living in the countryside.

And this child is the latter.

Apart from this surname, his ancestors basically left behind nothing else.

But Prince Chao at that time was the only son of the ruling Zhao State!

"Humph!"

“I’m still young now!”

"When I grow up, I can find a way to scrape together the money and buy a boat!"

He Bo turned over his belly, and his fins swayed slightly to adjust the angle for basking in the sun.

Hearing the child's solemn oath, he was too lazy to refute.

"Ah, yes, yes!"

"When you grow up you can go to sea!"

"Don't forget me, the fish in the Jishui River. I haven't even tried the snails and shrimps in the sea yet!"

The child waved his hand heroically, "Don't worry!"

"I will definitely not forget you!"

He Bo laughed and stopped talking.

And in this year when the old and the new intertwine,
After beating Yiqiu several times and ensuring the complete obedience of this group of barbarians, the King of Qin granted a fief to his cousin Gongzi Wang, who had just come of age and was about to be out of the fifth degree of mourning.

Prince Wang was overjoyed at first.
I feel that even though I am so distantly related to the king, I can still receive such special treatment, which is simply pie in the sky.

So he couldn't wait to catch the pie thrown to him by the king, and then he found out sadly:
This cake,
The taste is the same as the ones painted by the Emperor of Zhou for his princes in the early Western Zhou Dynasty!
The young master held the cake in his hands, his lips trembling, unable to utter a word.

At last,
He still wiped his tears and headed to the Western Regions with a team of a thousand people.

Qin Jun was very happy:
First send the young master to clear the way.
When the situation in the Western Regions eases,

His descendants,

You can go there and become a feudal lord!

The plan of the cunning rabbit with three burrows,
start up!
