Chapter 493 Ji Sun Yiru takes charge of the affairs of the emperor
Meng Sunheji felt pain in his wrist and almost shed tears again.
"How... is this inappropriate?"
"Yang Hu! Don't be rude to the sect master!"
"Oh! You have something to say, why are you so handsy!"
Some of Meng's retainers came forward to criticize, while others came forward to persuade.
But Yang Hu was so tall and strong that there was nothing he could do for a moment!
He was obsessed with Meng Sun Heji, looked around, and said with a sidelong glance:
"A tiger would never dare to make a mistake! But... please come with the tiger!"
As Yang Hu spoke, he actually pulled Meng Sun Heji directly out of the house, and, surrounded by Meng's private soldiers, they climbed onto the northwest corner of the city wall together.
Yang Hu then let go of Meng Sun He Ji's wrist and pointed in the direction of Ji's clan house.
"Everyone, please take a look!"
Everyone went as expected, but saw the Shusun family's private soldiers near the Ji family's residence with flags fluttering and crowds of people, as if they were actually fighting with the Luhou's personal guards!
When everyone saw this situation, they were all shocked and looked at each other for a while.
Everyone present knew that if even the Shusun family supports the Ji family, then what reason does the Meng family have for not supporting it? If they continue to insist on going their own way, I am afraid they will fall into a situation that is beyond redemption!
Now, it seems that they, the Meng family, can’t do anything without taking sides!
Just when Meng was stunned, Yang Hu suddenly attacked again!
Hearing a clang sound, he pulled out the sword tied to Meng Sun Heji's waist and rushed behind He E. At this moment, He E was also watching the Shusun family and Lu Hou's personal guards fighting together. He was still there at this moment.
In the midst of doubts, I suddenly noticed the strong wind behind me, but before I had time to react, I felt a chill on my head and neck, and my eyes went dark.
A cold light flashed and blood splattered everywhere.
Li Xie's head was chopped off by Yang Hu on the spot!
And Yang Hu picked up Xi Evil's head again, raised it high, and threw it down the city wall, shouting at the same time:
"Meng has killed the traitor Zhe evil!"
When everyone on the city wall heard this, they were all shocked by Yang Hu's decisive killing.
When Meng Sunheji saw such a bloody scene, he fainted and died.
He died in the Meng family, and the Shusun family attacked the Marquis of Lu there. From this point of view, the Meng family had no choice but to gather their troops and go to assist the Ji family, and rebelled together.
Luhou.
Lu Houchou never imagined that he would rush to liquidate the Ji family, but the Meng family and Shusun family who originally supported him would turn against him at this juncture!
Now he is alone and has no choice but to prepare to flee.
When Confucius heard the news, he hurried back. However, the situation was already settled. He didn't have time to go to Meng's house to ask about the situation, so he hurriedly went to see Lu Hou Chou. And Lu Hou Chou was like this
Someone was already packing the luggage.
Ji Sunyiru also knew that he could not do anything to Lu Houchou at this time, so he also deliberately let him run away.
After all, only when Lu Hou Chou left the country of Lu could he find a way to get rid of Lu Hou Chou.
Isn't Ji Sun Yiru's intention in laying out such a big picture just to make Lu Hou make a mistake first, and then be able to legitimately and completely suppress Lu Hou?
And if he "accidentally" kills Lu Houchou at this time, then he will go round and round, and the name of the lord murder will eventually fall on him.
Therefore, Lu Houchou's life must not be lost.
At the very least, you can't throw it away now.
However, Lu Houchou, who knew that the situation was over but was well versed in it, was not in a hurry when he left. He even went to the tomb of his ancestor and cried bitterly. ("Book of Rites": When you leave the country, you will cry.
Go after the tomb.)
When Confucius entered the tomb, he saw Lu Houchou and said:
"The Ji family intends to let the emperor run away, but there is no need to do so! The emperor can pretend that he is being held hostage by his ministers and let the ministers flee, but the emperor can stay. The Ji family will definitely not do anything to the emperor.
After all, the status of monarch and minister still exists. On the contrary, it will be more dangerous if the monarch is away from home!"
Lu Houchou was already very upset at this moment. While crying, he replied:
"This is all caused by me and has nothing to do with others! Let them run around while I sit back and enjoy peace. Who can work for me in the future? Besides, if you stay here, even if your life is safe, you will eventually be constrained by it.
, there is no interest in life, I might as well run away with them!"
Faced with this situation, Confucius was helpless and had to ask:
"But I don't know where your Majesty wants to go?"
"Qiu, I did this matter in a hurry. I haven't thought of a place yet... If it doesn't work out, how about going to Chu State?"
Confucius thought for a while and said:
"Your Majesty is determined to run away, but you still want to be cautious. Chu is definitely not a good place. In the past, the Marquis of Qi came to Lu, and I had a close relationship with the Marquis of Qi, Yan Ying. I would like to go to Qi on your behalf to persuade the Marquis of Qi.
Take shelter, Your Majesty!"
"Qiu then went to the Song Dynasty. The two countries of Lu and Song have always been on good terms, and the Duke of Song was also deeply hurt by the quarrel between the emperor and his ministers. He must have felt the same as the emperor. The Duke of Song was very righteous, so I went to talk about it. When I heard that
Lu Luan will definitely come to help!"
When Lu Houchou heard this, he couldn't help but sigh:
"That's it, it's hard work for Qiu. It can't be delayed. Please go and come back as soon as possible!"
At this point, Confucius said goodbye to the Marquis of Lu and went ahead alone to reach Qi State.
After the Duke of Lu reported his death to the tomb, he ran away.
It is incredible to think that the king of a country is forced to flee by his ministers.
At this time, Shusunnu, who was still outside, learned of the changes in the country and hurried back to the capital.
However, the matter has come to this, no matter how capable Shusunnu is, he can't do anything about this situation.
In desperation, he had no choice but to lower his body and urge Ji Sun Yiru to take the initiative to welcome Lu Hou back.
After all, if this matter continues and arouses the anger of the princes, it will also be detrimental to the Lu country and the Ji family in the long run.
Ji Sun Yiru agreed at first. However, who knew that this was actually Ji Sun Yiru's delaying strategy.
After all, Ji Sun Yiru now takes the initiative, so waiting and watching is the right move.
Therefore, he first contacted the dark people in secret and inquired about the news in Lu.
After learning and confirming the attitudes of the various princes, especially the appeasement attitude of the Jin State, Ji Sun Yiru's ambitions could not help but be further fueled.
Since everything is calm and peaceful, it has become an established fact that he takes over the throne on his behalf.
Therefore, when he saw Shusun Nu again, he changed his attitude and openly started a fight, not preparing to welcome Marquis Lu back to his country.
Shusunnu also knew that he was helpless at this moment, and he also knew that he had become the next target of the Ji family.
In order to prevent the Shusun family from being liquidated, to leave the last hope for the Shusun family, and to further clarify his ambitions, Shusunnu finally locked himself in the ancestral hall, fasted in bed, and made Zhuqi die.
After seven days of hunger strike and prayer, he finally died.
When Lu Houchou heard the news, he cried with tears and was in great pain. It can be said that the last person he could rely on in the country was gone.
At this point, the internal fighting among the three clans that had lasted for more than 150 years since the era of Ji You, Qingfu, and Shu Ya had finally come to an end.
…
At the same time, on the other side, Song Gongzuo, who was inspired by Confucius and was preparing to go to Jin to act as a lobbyist for Lu Houchou, unexpectedly died on the way.
These things happened almost at the same time, so the secret traveler hiding next to Qi Hou lost no time in saying:
"The Duke of Song went to the Jin State to lobby for the Marquis of Lu, but unexpectedly he died on the way. Uncle Sunnu in the State of Lu was also rushing to prepare for the return of the Marquis of Lu, and he died suddenly in his own ancestral temple. Is it possible?
Is this God trying to cut off Marquis Lu's way back to his country? Could it be that Marquis Lu really felt ashamed of the ghosts and gods and suffered such a misfortune?"
"Are you really prepared to send Marquis Lu back to your country in person? Why don't you put this matter aside for the time being and let your son go to the garrison to assist Marquis Lu. If everything goes well for Marquis Lu, it would be great. Marquis Lu will do the same in the future.
The love of Qi State, but if it fails, your Majesty will be able to avoid humiliating yourself!"
"What's more, your Majesty's placement in Yunyi can be regarded as the most benevolent and righteous act!"
The State of Qi was very concerned about the return of Marquis Lu from the beginning. After all, only Fang Bo's state, which claimed to be the "overlord of the world", could interfere in the internal affairs of other countries.
Being able to interfere in Lu's internal affairs would greatly satisfy Qi Hou Chujiu's vanity.
However, Qi Hou Chujiu could not help but feel guilty because of the mysterious deaths of Song Yuan Gong (Song Gongzuo) and his uncle Sun Zhaozi (Uncle Sunnu).
After weighing the two sides, they had no choice but to give up their planned ideas for the time being, and first sent the prince to lead his army to follow Lu Houchou.
Young Master Xue received the order and set out. At first he made it clear that the Marquis of Lu must be sent back to his country.
However, in the "Battle of Chuubi", the majestic Qi army was finally "lost" to the tired army of Lu. This inexplicable defeat made the Marquis of Qi finally firm up in giving up the idea of serving as the Marquis of Lu and returning home.
Confucius saw that he could no longer accomplish anything in Qi, so he left Qi.
On the Yuncheng side, since the Marquis of Qi was in high spirits at the beginning, the protection was considered complete.
But as time went by, the Marquis of Qi saw that this incident was of no benefit to the Qi State, and the public voice for sending Lu Marquis back to his country was getting lower and lower, so the protection of Lu Marquis Chou became more and more neglected.
Since Lu Houchou ran away, Ji Sun Yiru has been taking charge of the affairs of the emperor in an orderly manner, and secretly has been secretly sending assassins to Yunyi to carry out assassinations.
In order to save his life, Lu Houchou had no choice but to hide in Tibet.
And this is why Li Ran sent Owl Wings to explore Yunyi before, but to no avail.
