Don't steal a man from me

Chapter 22 I don't know what to do

It was three o'clock in Xuzheng when Mei Hao returned to Mei Mansion, he went to greet his father Mei Changqu and mother Liu Shi, and then returned to the bamboo garden distraught.

On the desk was the Jiaowei Qin given to him by Xun Yan. Mei Hao sat down beside the desk and plucked it lightly with bare hands.

This Jiaowei Qin was originally the famous Qin held by Jiang Shang, a famous virtuous minister of King Wen of Shang. After the death of King Wen of Shang, King Shang Lie ascended the throne. In his harem, there was a concubine called You Ji. She was delicate and charming, and was very much loved by King Shang Lie. It's just that You Ji doesn't like to laugh, she weeps all day long.

King Shanglie smiled for Bomei, and played with the princes. At that time, the Chu Kingdom in the south was already powerful and had the potential to become king. Jiang Shang was worried, and went to the palace to persuade King Shanglie not to be greedy for women. You want to see if Jiang Shang is really loyal to the king. In his words: "Since the death of civil servants in ancient times, the widow dug out your heart to see if you are sincere."

Jiang Shang died tragically, and the officials and generals in the court were disappointed, and the merchant house declined from then on. The Qin Jiaowei seemed to have a spirituality, and his whereabouts were unknown.

Mei Hao admired Jiang Shangzhi, the great sage, and wanted to find Jiao Weiqin. Later, he heard that the Jiaowei Qin had fallen into the hands of a wealthy businessman. give up.

However, after one month, the rich businessman suddenly came to him and offered him the Jiao Weiqin as a gift. Mei Hao didn't want to accept it for nothing, so the rich businessman smiled and said, "A gentleman deserves a famous piano, Hanzhang Jun can accept it" and left.

Mei Hao had doubts in his heart, but finally suppressed his doubts with joy, and happily carried Qin back to the house.

By chance, Mei Hao learned from Qian'er what Xun Yan had done for Jiao Weiqin.

It turned out that Xun Yan heard that he had paid a lot of money to buy the piano but failed, so he went to the rich merchant by himself and asked how he would sell the piano.

Seeing Xun Yan's peerless demeanor, the wealthy businessman became lustful.

He said to Xun Yan: "It's not impossible to have a qin, but you have to serve me for a month. I'm happy, so I will give this qin to Mr. Hanzhang, how about it?"

Mei Hao was stunned. In those days, he saw that Xun Yan was always bedridden lazily. He asked about it, but Xun Yan always smiled and said that he was caught in the cold and just rested, but he didn't know where he was. How much torture the moon suffered.

Thoughts were flying, Mei Hao heaved a long sigh, got up and walked out of the house, the snow had stopped, the moonlight shone on the bamboo grove, there was a sense of tranquility, he paced among the bamboo groves holding the folding fan.

Xun Yan's every frown and smile, whether he blamed him or smiled lightly, seemed to be engraved on the tip of his heart, clearly visible.

Mei Hao knew that he liked this magnificent person, and he wanted to buy him more than once, let him stay by his side, and didn't want him to suffer anymore, he really wanted to protect this person who had suffered so much juvenile.

However, when he thinks that a man's falling in love violates human relations, when he thinks of Long Nanzi's surprised and disappointed eyes, and when he thinks about how the world will treat him, he shrinks back. If you regard him as a great sage, how can he do things that violate rituals and music?

Mei Hao struggles between the two every day, he can't control the heart that loves Xun Yan, and he can't rescue Xun Yan from that filthy place.

So he can only be busy with political affairs every day, busy with books, and helping the master to annotate ancient scriptures. As long as he is free, as long as he does not go to see him, the struggle will be lighter.

At this time, Xun Yan was sitting quietly in front of the desk. On the desk was a scroll of painting, on which was a red plum. He squinted his eyes and caressed the scroll with his pale hands.

Gan'er came in, furred a fur coat for him, and said softly, "Third Master, are you thinking about Mr. Hanzhang again?"

Xun Yan lowered his eyes and said with a faint smile: "That idiot, all day long, he only knows to shake his head and say with a stern face, "Don't see anything wrong, don't listen to anything wrong."

"Third Master, I didn't say that, I think Mr. Hanzhang treats Third Master better than those rich merchants. Look, that Yi Wei sent another box of beads and a box of brocade." Gan'er said.

"Hmph, those people just gave me some things to please me because they thought I looked good." Xun Yan glanced coldly at the things in Qian'er's hand, and said with a sneer, "Which one is sincere!"

After finishing speaking, she lowered her eyes to look at the red plum in the picture scroll, and said in a gentle voice: "Only he, only he doesn't look at me, but treats me sincerely."

The moonlight is like water, sprinkled into the room, filling the room with affection.

Talk about pouring the country.King Qing indulged in all day long, and Jingming entered the "Zhaiyue Tower" to persuade him. King Qing put his arm around the beautiful woman with breasts and bare breasts, held a glass of wine in the other hand and said with a smile: "I have a general around me, why should I be afraid of him?" After speaking, he pulled the beauty to tear off her clothes, kissed and hugged her.

Jing Ming frowned, and had no choice but to leave the dormitory and return to the shogunate. The winter night in the Northland was quite cold, and Jing Ming sat alone on the eaves of the General's Mansion, carrying a jug to relieve his worries.

The Chu State in the south originally had a large population, a large population, and the wealth of the world. Now that Chu Yunqi is in power, he has made drastic reforms, and his national power has increased by several percent. Jing Ming is worried just thinking about it.

Chu State seems to be calm now, don't you know that this is the calm before the storm?As long as this strong neighbor in the south is not destroyed, Qingguo will be restless all day long, but his own king will have fun all day long.

Jing Ming was helpless, and when his thoughts were racing, he thought of Feng Qing—that young man who could always calmly analyze the importance and interests and respond immediately at any time.

"Going to persuade that unworthy king again today?" The crimson red came into view, and his familiar voice sounded in his ear, Feng Qing sat down beside him, took the wine pot in his hand, and said: " Drink less, strong alcohol will hurt your health."

Jing Ming sighed and shook his head, he didn't know how he knocked on the door of Feng Shangqing's mansion drunkenly.

Feng Qing's eyes flickered, and he swallowed the sentence "It's better to kill that trash" and said after a pause: "Xi Kingdom is too far away from us, King Xi is greedy for small gains, and it's difficult for Xi to conquer Chu, so why don't you send your family to us?" The small country at the gate has been eaten away little by little, and in the north, drive those barbarians to the head of Chen Guo, and it can expand nearly a thousand miles to the north."

Jing Ming pondered for a while, then nodded and said: "Your Majesty ignores government affairs, that's the only way to go."

"Furthermore, although I have formed an alliance with Chu, there is a country of Xi after all. When we go to court tomorrow, we will strongly advise the king to form an alliance with Chu, so that the general can let go of his hands and attack the people at the door of the house. It's a small country." Feng Qing looked at Jing Ming who was frowning tightly and smiled, patted him on the shoulder and said, "There is no need for the general to be so worried."

In the 26th year of King You of Shang Dynasty, in May, General Jing Ming led one hundred thousand elite soldiers to destroy the Cai State above his head, and in July he sent troops to destroy Zhongshan State.So far, there are only a few dozen vassal states entrusted by King Cheng of Shang.

Among the vassal states, there are six stronger ones, namely Qing, Chu, Song Wei, Chen, Ji, and Xi.

After several months of conquest by Jingming, Qingguo expanded to Yaoshan in the east, bordering Chen State.

To the surprise of the world, the neighbor in the north attacked the city so restlessly, the state of Chu was unexpectedly silent, and King Xi also looked on coldly with an attitude of "nothing to do with himself".

Chen Guoben also only intended to watch the fun, but when Qing Guo came to his door, the king of Chen Guo panicked. On the one hand, he sent envoys to Qing to ask Qing Wang what he meant, and on the other hand, he sent envoys to Xi, wanting to see King Xi. How much to intervene, cut down the flames of the country.

King Qingling ordered Qingguo Shangqing Fengqingyu to pick up the envoys of the two countries.

It was already cold winter in Qingguo in November, a cart lurched at Qingguo Shangqing Mansion, the driver jumped off the horse neatly, went to the back of the car, put the bench on the ground, opened the door, and helped the envoy of Chen Guo to get off car.

"Emissary Chen has come from afar, but Feng will welcome him from afar!" Feng Qing, who was dressed in a vermilion swallow-pattern robe, walked out of Shangqing Mansion and said with a smile.

The envoy Chen snorted coldly and said: "How dare you bother your country's superior to welcome you? My king is also afraid that if your country is unhappy, Xishou will lead his troops to destroy Chen country. No, the general Jingming killed the gods." The name has spread to King Xi's ears."

Feng Qing listened, and said with a faint smile: "Then envoy Chen means that all the countries in the Central Plains have to follow King Xi's face to act? Oh, I don't know about other countries, Feng Qing, but I just heard envoy Chen say so. Have you bowed your head to King Xi already?"

"You!" Chen Shi wanted to give Feng Qing a face, and warn Qing Guo not to be too arrogant, but he didn't expect to be humiliated by him in a few words and without a trace, and his face turned red immediately.

"Oh, envoy Chen, don't be angry. Feng has prepared some thin wine and is waiting for envoy Chen to come." Feng Qing smiled, turned sideways, bent slightly and said, "Envoy Chen, please!"

The envoy Chen snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves, and walked into the Qing's mansion.

The banquet is held in the hall in the back garden. Although it is winter, the garden has a pleasant scenery, with bamboo forests, pines and cypresses.

Feng Qing and Chen Shi faced each other and sat down on the east and west sides respectively. They didn't exchange much greetings, but Chen Shi asked directly: "Qingguo destroyed the two countries in the past half a year, what is your intention?"

Feng Qing raised his eyebrows when he heard this, but he was not in a hurry to say anything. He squeezed the cup of wine with his slender hands, covered his mouth with his wide sleeves and drank it with his head up, then smiled calmly: "Emissary Chen's words are serious. , the neighbors are dishonest, and I will pour out my country to teach them a lesson."

"Lessons? Lessons have destroyed other countries? Did your country teach too many lessons?" Chen Envoy sneered.

"If your country can't stand it, you can send troops. I promise not to say a word." Feng Qing slowly played with the wine cup in his hand. He put down the wine glass slowly, and looked up at Chen Shi's voice Turned: "But it depends on whether your country has the ability."

Envoy Chen's face turned red. King Chen sent envoys here this time just to put on airs and frighten Qingguo. Of course, if Qingguo is afraid, it is not impossible to ask for some land. Don't you know that all countries promote the way of heaven, but in Feng Qing's eyes, they are just begging for mercy.

In a world of great contention, military strength and national strength speak for themselves.Whichever country has strong soldiers and strong national strength, that country has the right to speak, and those with weak soldiers can only be beaten.As a result, the alliances of various countries appeared to be bullying the weak. The envoys of the strong countries bossed around, while the envoys of the weak countries could only obey.

Feng Qing glanced at Chen Shi's embarrassing look, narrowed her eyes slightly, and said with a chuckle: "My king Nian is in a country where we are both in a joint vertical, and we are as close as brothers. Of course, the benefits of the country will not be monopolized, so my king We have decided to donate the Shangdang and Acropolis in the north to your country as a token of friendship and alliance."

After hearing this, Envoy Chen's eyes lit up, and he looked at Feng Qing with a look of doubt on his face. Feng Qing took a panoramic view of his expression, smiled and said: "Feng will hand over the map and household registration of the two places to Chen. Envoy, my country is a big country in the Central Plains, how can I care about such a small amount of land? Your envoy is too worried."

This sentence is beautiful. It not only lets all countries in the world know that a big country will not care about every inch of land like a weak country, but also ridicules Chen Guo from the king to the envoy without a trace. How can you be considered Chen Guo? There is a bit of improvement in the vassal kingdoms, why are they so shameless to come to the door and ask others to donate land.

Therefore, the envoys of the State of Chen happily took the map and household registration and went back to report to the king of Chen. Qingguo also stationed troops in various cities, collected taxes, and annexed these small countries.

After Qing Wang learned about these things, he danced happily.He didn't expect that he would do nothing and spend the whole day hugging beauties and drinking for fun. When he opened his eyes, he would be equal to Xiguo when he opened his eyes. After he came to the throne, he fell to the Central Plains of Zhuolu and became a country that looked down on the princes. When he was overjoyed, he named Jingming as Wu Dingjun.

After Jingming was appointed, Xiangguo's son Huiyu couldn't sit still. He said to Huiwen, "Father, that Jingming holds the military power, and now the king has named him Lord Wuding. I don't think it will be long before he will be in power. I don’t even pay attention to my father, Xiangguo!”

Hui Wen, who was over [-] years old, was silent for a long time. He opened his eyes, looked at his son and said in a low voice, "Yu'er, I would like to ask you as a father, how is the current king Qing compared with the previous king?"

"King Qingcheng is conscientious and conscientious, a generation of Mingjun, and now this person who is addicted to wine and sex is not a good thing." Hui Yu thought for a while and said in a low voice.

"As a father, I will ask you again, is the power of the minister of the wise king or the power of the minister of the foolish king?"

After hearing this, Hui Yu looked at the gray-haired father in surprise and horror, stepped forward and said in a low voice, "Father wants to steal the country?"

Huiwen smiled and said, "It's not impossible for Huishi to overwhelm the country."

Hui Yu only felt a thunderbolt from the blue sky, and when he thought that he could also sit on the throne and enjoy the worship of all people, his blood was racing. He excitedly grabbed Hui Wen's hand and said, "That's why the father let Jing Ming fight?"

Huiwen said in a low voice: "That boy Jingming is loyal, but he doesn't know whether he is loyal to King Qing or this country. We can use him to fight for my Huishi. When the time is right, we can just fabricate a If there is any news of the rebellion, King Qingling will kill him without hesitation. That's when I, Huishi, will replace Zhao. So, what you have to do now is to find more beauties and send them to the palace to please King Qingling, you understand ?”

"My child understands!" Hui Yu agreed repeatedly.

When the moon was on the treetops, Hui Yu's face was flushed, and she retreated from Huiwen's room.
