So someone recommended Wu Qi to the king of Lu State. Wu Qi was not only Zeng Zi’s apprentice, but also “good at using soldiers.” More importantly, Wu Qi’s reputation as “good at using soldiers” could not be said to be a household name in the Lu State at that time.
The lotus has revealed its sharp corners." When the country was in crisis, King Lu planned to appoint Wu Qi as the general of Lu State without any restrictions.
However, as a general who controls a country's military resources, Wu Qi not only needs strong military command capabilities, but also must pass strict review of his character and background. This is an eternal organizational procedure.
Just when Wu Qi was about to become a general of Lu, something went wrong in his review.
The problem lies with Wu Qi's wife, because Wu Qi married a woman from Qi State. For this reason, the king and ministers of Lu State had doubts and asked a son-in-law of Qi State to lead troops to fight against the Qi State army. This sounds real.
Not reliable.
Moreover, Wu Qi himself was not from Lu, but from Wei. What he came to Lu to pursue was nothing more than making money and becoming an official. If Wu Qi loves Lu more than he loves himself because Lu is the hometown of his ancestor Confucius,
Wife, I’m afraid no one believes it.
Who can guarantee that a son-in-law of the State of Qi who is a native of the State of Qi can risk offending his wife and father-in-law and serve the people of the State of Lu wholeheartedly? When it comes to leading troops in battles and winning thousands of miles, the monarchs and ministers of the State of Lu have no experience, but if it is said
Even a man who is afraid of his wife understands the power of this, so the nationality issue of Wu Qi's wife became an insurmountable obstacle for Wu Qi to ascend to the throne of general.
If it fails the review, no one can do anything about it. This is the power of the process.
King Lu had no choice but to hire Gao Ming.
Wu Qi was anxious. As an educated young man who had been "good at using soldiers" since childhood, his life pursuit was not to become a cultural master like his master Zeng Zi, but to become a famous general like Sima Rangju and Sun Wu.
Wu Qi grew up in a wealthy family. What he pursues is not material wealth, but world-famous social influence and a historical status that will go down in history. But unfortunately for Wu Qi, if he wants to become a big shot and follow the scholar's route, it is obviously not feasible. The value of a cultural master
And status shows a decreasing trend with the continuation of generation. For example, in Confucianism, the greatest master is of course Confucius, who is recognized as a "sage", followed by Confucius's students, who are called "sages", and it is Wu Qi's turn
, he really couldn't imagine what kind of person he would become if he followed Zeng Zi wholeheartedly all his life.
Objectively speaking, if Wu Qi had followed the path of a cultural scholar, he might not have even had a chance to be recorded in the annals of history. Even if he had such a chance, it would most likely be just that "there once was a Weiguo man named Wu Qi who studied under the sage Zeng Zi."
What Wu Qi couldn't accept even more was that even titles like "sage" and "sage" were mostly the evaluation given by the world a hundred years later. A considerable proportion of the "sage" and "sage" in those days were quite lonely or even useless during their lifetimes.
.
Wu Qi is not Yan Hui. It is absolutely impossible for him to live in a back alley without changing his happiness.
In addition, although there were no forums for hundreds of schools of thought in those days, cultural masters flourished everywhere like a hundred schools of thought contending. It was very rare for a cultural master to become famous and famous immediately while he was still alive.
However, famous generals are different. There are endless famous generals in Chinese history. There are admirable famous generals in all dynasties. It is difficult for future generations to evaluate which one is greater, Sima Ranju, Sun Wu or Sun Bin.
More importantly, whether Sima Ranju or Sun Wu, they both became famous in one battle. While they were alive, these people were shining brightly and became famous all over the world. This is the life Wu Qi wanted.
Although Wu Qi, an intellectual young man from the Wei Kingdom, once studied with a cultural master, he had long been determined to become a famous general who was decisive and decisive in killing. Instead of being a scholar with a poor head, he saw the seal and military talisman of General Lu, which symbolized power, right in front of him.
Wu Qi was really anxious and sad because he was so upset because he married a wife from Qi State.
Wu Qi didn't expect that his initial search for a partner would accidentally cause trouble for his career. Life is really unpredictable. Wu Qi married the wife of Qi State, and Qi State came to attack Lu State, but Wu Qi happened to be in Lu State.
There is no more suitable person to be a general in Lu than Wu Qi.
A series of accidents finally led to an inevitable outcome. Wu Qi, who aspired to become a famous general, killed his wife with his own hands, demonstrating his loyalty and determination with bloody practical actions.
When Wu Qi, with a determined look on his face, appeared in front of King Lu holding his wife's bloody head, King Lu's heart "thumped" and he was stunned on the spot.
King Lu really didn't expect that a woman's beautiful head could be used for other purposes besides just being an ornament, so he couldn't help but be shocked and speechless by Wu Qi's brain teasers.
Wu Qi killed his wife and climbed up the ladder. Based on this, Wu Qi is qualified to be recorded in history.
In fact, before Wu Qi, there was a man named Yi Ya in the state of Qi during the era of Duke Huan of Qi who committed similar heinous atrocities. At that time, Yi Ya wanted to win the trust and favor of Duke Huan of Qi, the first of the five hegemons in the Spring and Autumn Period.
, resolutely killed his son and made a dish for Duke Huan of Qi to taste.
The reason why Yi Ya killed his son was that Duke Huan of Qi once joked during a meal: "I am a king, and I have eaten all the delicacies in the world except human flesh."
Hearing Qi Huangong's emotion, Yi Ya took the initiative and creatively understood Qi Huangong's intentions. He naturally believed that as a minister, he could not let his boss have regrets in his life.
So Yi Ya went home that night and killed his son and sent him to the kitchen. As the saying goes, "The person who eats is soft-mouthed." Not to mention that Duke Huan of Qi ate Yi Ya's biological son. Therefore, Duke Huan of Qi had to look at Yi Ya differently. From then on,
Yi Ya entered the power center of Qi State and later became an important minister who supported the successor of Qi King.
In the same way, because Wu Qi killed his wife with his own hands to express his determination, he was really embarrassed to find fault with Wu Qi's background and character, so Wu Qi quickly passed the review and became the coveted general of Lu.
Su Jiu recalled the information about Wu Qi recorded in various classics in his mind.
In these materials, there is very little description of Wu Qi's wife.
Doubts are here too.
If we go by the records in the classics.
Wu Qi's wife is not important at all.
However, the existence and specifications of the ancient tomb XZ cannot be built by ordinary people at all. What's more, a person like Wu Qi who pays attention to power actually puts his own military symbols in the ancient tomb.
It is enough to show that he must like his wife very much.
Su Jiu thought slowly.
Sorting out his thoughts.
All the mysteries will be solved in this XZ Tomb.
And the Buddhist black lotus.
Last time, because my cultivation was not enough, I did not pursue the black lotus too much. A black lotus actually appeared in the tomb of Wu Qi's wife, and it was Buddhist.
During the Warring States Period, at that time, there was the lotus flower of Buddhism. At that time when hundreds of schools of thought were in full bloom, Buddhism had no sense of existence at all.
There are too many secrets in it.
Su Jiu thought secretly in her heart.
