Chapter 22 Duke Wen of Jin withdrew his troops (Part 1)

After leaving the palace of King Qi, the brother and sister Madou Dou and Zhi Guoguo came to Jin again. They met Chong'er, who had retreated from the army, and became Duke Wen of Jin in history.

Madoudou and Zhiguoguo were brought to the river, where two men in military uniforms were talking.

After the previous experiences, the brother and sister were afraid of causing trouble, so they hid in the reeds.

Because Madoudou and Zhiguoguo didn't know whether the two people talking were good or bad people, the brother and sister had to listen carefully.

"Back then, Jun's father believed the slander and killed the prince's brother Shen Sheng, and then sent people to arrest the orphan. Fortunately, the orphan was lucky. He had been in exile for more than ten years and was taken good care of by the King of Chu.

One day, I made a promise to the King of Chu. If there is a war between Jin and Chu in the future, in order to repay the kindness of the King of Chu, I will order the army to retreat three sheds (one shed is equal to thirty miles)."

Chong'er explained to his close confidant Jie Zi the reason and original intention of retreating from the army.

Chong'er's confidant Jie Zitui frowned and looked at Chong'er worriedly, "Your Majesty, you take King Chu's kindness to heart, but now that King Chu is letting Chu soldiers suppress Jin, we can't just sit back and wait for death."

Chong'er looked into the distance and sighed faintly. "If Gu retreats, the King of Chu will force him to fight again, and Gu will fight with him again."

Chong'er's thoughts returned to the years when he was in exile many years ago. Those days made him suffer from the warmth and coldness of the world.

After Chong'er's confidant Jie Zitui pushed away, Chong'er turned around and saw Madoudou and Zhiguoguo hiding behind the reeds.

"Come out!" Chong'er called to Madoudou and Zhiguoguo behind the reeds.

Madoudou held Zhi Guoguo's hand, walked carefully to Chong'er, and knelt down first.

When Madou Doudou and Zhi Guoguo were about to kneel down, Chong'er helped the two siblings up.

"Get up and talk. Seeing that you are so young, you don't know where you came from and where are you going?" Chong'er asked Madoudou and Zhiguoguo gently.

Madoudou thought of an excuse in his mind, "To tell you what the king is saying, our brother and sister came from a very far away place, and we were separated from our parents..."

Chong'er looked at Madou Doudou and Zhi Guoguo in front of him, and couldn't help but think of his life of fleeing from Jin many years ago. At that time, he was the same age as Madou Dou and Zhi Guoguo.

Chong'er felt sorry for Madou Doudou and Zhi Guoguo. He held Madou Doudou and Zhi Guoguo with one hand and said, "Now that the Chu soldiers have invaded the country and there is chaos everywhere, you two brothers and sisters will follow Gu for the time being."

Brother and sister Madoudou and Zhi Guoguo gratefully thanked Chong'er.

After getting on the carriage, Madou asked Chong'er carefully, "I wonder, my lord, which country are you the king of?"

Because in the reeds just now, Madoudou heard Chong'er calling himself an orphan, and just now Chong'er's cronies called him the king, he became more curious about Chong'er's identity.

Chong'er took off his cloak and put it on Madoudou and Zhiguoguo.

"My name is Chong'er, and my surname is Ji. I am the son of Duke Xian of Jin, and share the same clan as the Zhou royal family. My mother is the daughter of the Hu family of Zhai State, and she is the Fox Concubine. Many years ago, when my father defeated Li Rong, he got Li Ji, and then he

Xi Qi was born.

Because Jun's father loved Li Ji very much and wanted to make her child the prince. Jun's father listened to Greedy's words and wanted to kill Gu and several brothers. Gu took advantage of the chaos and escaped from the Jin palace and went into exile. At that time, Gu followed you

Similar age."
