Chapter 186 The Birth of the Cuckold 2

Nu Qi was the king's favorite minister. He is now in charge of criminal law in the mansion of the Supreme Justice and the weak official. The king sent Nu Qi to the army, which was actually an obscure hint: the king did not believe that Zhao Wu could let Duke Xian of Wei easily, but the king did want to save Duke Xian of Wei and set an example to restrict powerful ministers.

The king is still young and has a simple mind. He sent a girl to give a hidden hint. Such a curved mind would not have been thought of by the king himself. Zhao Wu thought for a moment and the back of a blind musician appeared in his mind: Shi Kuang.

The female Qi came to Zhao Wu's chariot. He looked at the busy soldiers who were repairing siege equipment nearby, then lowered his head, visited Zhao Wu according to the military etiquette, and said, "The emperor has an order. Please ask the deputy general to detain Wei Jun, send it to the capital, and transfer it to the justices and detain him."

Zhao Wu snorted: "Of course I will execute the monarch's orders. You shouldn't have come, you'll do it in one go."

Uncle Xiang had a good relationship with the girl and quickly smoothed out: "It's great that the girl is here. Sikong can transfer the king of Wei to the girl and escort him. We can focus on 'others'."

Zhao Wu thought for a while and asked carefully: "From your expression, you don't seem to know the news of the Qi army's invasion yet?"

The female Qi was stunned for a moment and asked, "What happened to you? How did you know?"

Tian Su had not interrupted just now, and now came forward to answer: "Fifty men of Mengmen defenders have been killed in the hands of Qi, and the Qi army has entered the Taihang Mountains. But at present... the marshal is not in the capital, and the military information is directly reported to the Deputy General's Mansion. After Zhao Zhiji received the news, he sent someone to inform Quwo's ​​Marshal Fan Yi. The Marshal sent me to come day and night to inform the Deputy General and ask the Deputy General to return to the army.

I walked through the water route, and I didn't enter the city when I passed by Xintian. When I walked, you hadn't set off from Xintian yet..."

The young lady sat down slowly: "Then, now we need Wei Jun to seek peace, not the other way around."

Zhao Wu sneered and ordered impatiently: "Order the other five divisions to stop assembling siege equipment, and order Xu and Lu troops to prepare to set off and advance to the border of Qi."

Qi Ce quickly dissuaded: "No, Lord, the king of Wei is just a naughty child who doesn't know the height of the world. Now he temporarily withdrew the troops of Lu and Xu. When he saw the pressure was reduced, he did not want to leave the city. In this way, we have to dispatch the army to prepare for the siege, and repeatedly, isn't it a waste of time?"

Zhao Wu looked at the Diqiu City Wall with a grin and said, "I ordered someone to come into the city to issue an ultimatum to the King of Wei: Before sunset today, if the King of Wei does not leave the city, then I will go into the city and I will go to find him."

How did Duke Zhuang of Qi send troops? The information was not transmitted effectively in the Spring and Autumn Period, so he searched afterwards. According to the records of the Grand Historian of Qi, two months ago, Tian Wan, the sect leader of the Tian family of Qi, hurried to the capital of Linzi with the newly obtained Zhao family cavalry sword. In the city of Linzi, Qi Zhuang was full of confidence. When he heard Tian Wan requesting a meeting, he proudly called Tian Wan and boasted: "Tian Qing, the main force of the Jin army was involved in Quwo. Zhao Wuzi led their last army and allied troops to besiege Diqiu. Now, the people of Jin no longer had the strength to deal with our Qi. I have gathered forces to take Qingfeng as a general and prepare to attack Jin."

Duke Zhuang of Qi was talking, playing with a green hat in his hand. Duke Zhuang of Qi was the king. Strangely, the hat on his hand was actually a hat of the rule. Tian Wan stared at the hat on Duke Zhuang of Qi. Duke Zhu saw Tian Wan's gaze stopping on the hat. He immediately raised the hat proudly and showed off: "This cuckold is from Cui Zhu. I didn't expect it to be, it was handed to me by Cui Zhu's wife Tang Jiang."

As a result, China has added a new word: "cuckold".

Tian Wan was shocked, but he did not dare to comment on Cui Zhu's affairs. He quickly presented the sword in his hand to Duke Zhuang of Qi and said earnestly: "Your Majesty, Tian Guang, the next branch of my family, bought a Zhao cavalry sword from Jin State, please enjoy it."

Duke Zhuang of Qi was stunned for a moment. He slowly took the sword presented by Tian Wan and said happily: "When I was imprisoned in Zhao's family, I once saw the sword of Zhao's family. I had heard that the sword was very sharp, but Zhao's control of such weapons was very strict, but he didn't expect you to get one."

In the Spring and Autumn Period, swords were a symbol of identity, just like the scepter in the hands of Westerners a thousand years later, which was a symbol of aristocraticism. Most people in the Spring and Autumn Period could not wear robes when going out, but they would never forget to wear swords. Therefore, under normal circumstances, no one easily transferred this sword similar to scepter, let alone a Han-style sword.

Duke Zhuang of Qi had witnessed the sharpness of Zhao's weapon with his own eyes, but he had no chance to enter and appreciate it. This time he finally saw the secret of Zhao's sword. Duke Zhuang of Qi pulled out the sword from the sheath with interest and danced casually. The expert commented: "It's not bad, the size of the sword hilt is appropriate, making the entire sword swing, and the blade is as light as nothing. The curve of the sword body is also just right. Since it is a cavalry sword, it is more convenient to slash it immediately. I just don't know the sharpness of the sword... Come, take a few hidden swords in the palace."

After a while, the attendants took a few palace swords;

After a while, several famous bronze swords that were cut off were added on the ground.

Duke Zhuang of Qi sighed: "You gave me this sword, probably because I wanted me to retreat from the Jin army, but now my army has gathered and I have to set off."

Tian Wan replied carefully: "Zhao Wuzi is good at assault. Although his main force is now attracted to Diqiu, I heard that he attacked the western suburbs of Weiguo without any resistance. The entire military attack operation has not yet occurred in the Jin coalition. Therefore, although Zhao Wuzi has few troops, the emperor still needs to deal with it carefully."

Duke Zhuang of Qi waved his sword and replied: "Don't worry, I plan to cross the border from the southern part of Wei State and first attack Wei State Chaoge. Wei State is now in a mess. Our Qi State army is a friendly army, and the Wei people will not be wary of me. After I get Chaoge's supplies to replenish Chaoge, I will cross the Yellow River near Chaoge, and aim directly at Jiangcheng, the old capital of Jin State. Chaoge will provide me with enough food. I will lead the army to sneak across the Taihang Mountains, and there will be no danger."

Tian Wan quietly breathed a sigh of relief: "If this is the case, then I won't persuade you. Now that Lu and Zheng's troops have arrived at the city of Diqiu, Wei is in chaos. If you attack from the southern part of Wei, Zhao Wu may not have time to mobilize troops to intercept them... It is indeed a good way to attack."

Duke Zhuang of Qi smiled slightly: "Yes, the army of Jin State is not in the south but in the north. Their waists are just empty. If I attack quickly from it, I will definitely catch Jin State off guard. Hehe, isn't Zhao Wuzi good at assault? This time, let me attack him."

So, Duke Zhuang of Qi quietly sent troops.

At this moment, under the city of Diqiu, Ning Xi was anxious and did not wait until the sun rose the next day, so she hurriedly brought Duke Xian of Wei to Zhao Wu's army with lanterns overnight. Zhao Wu refused to meet them. The king and minister of the Wei Kingdom waited in the dark for a long time. The women all came over with lanterns and brought a team of warriors, shouting: "Ning Xi, where is the Beigong left?"

Ning Xi, Beigong Yi agreed in a trembling voice. The female Qi vented all the anger she suffered in Zhao Wu and said furiously: "I have an order to arrest Ning Xi and Beigong Yi."

Duke Xian of Wei watched the warrior take down the two ministers around him, and then he felt scared and stood there and started to tremble. After the warriors of Jin State detained the two of them, the female Qi turned to Duke Xian of Wei and announced: "The widow has an order to arrest Duke Wei."

"Detention" and "Abuse" are two different concepts. The word "Abuse" means that the sentence is to be held, and "Detention" without the word "Abuse" means that the crimes of the two have been sentenced and there is no need to be tried again - of course, they have no chance to make a defense.

When Gongsun Ding heard this order, he immediately jumped up...
