Chapter 47
The sound of galloping horseshoes broke through the tranquility of Zhaoyi, and Luo Xi hurried into the palace with an excited expression.

"Father, the great event has been accomplished, the continuous shooting was brave, one arrow shot and killed Qihou Wujiu, the doctor An Ning is now punishing Wujiu's relatives.

Now there is no king in Qi State, Dr. An Ning has sent an envoy to invite Xiaobai to return to the country to inherit the throne, and now you can send Xiaobai back to the country! "

Nowadays, the politics of most countries are very chaotic. It happens from time to time that such sons go into exile in other countries, and it is not uncommon for a prince to be sent back to the country to inherit the throne in the end.

Young Master Xiaobai was early in the political chaos of Qi State, and her mother was worried that something might happen, so she sent him to Luo State for refuge in advance.

Sure enough, Lu Wujiu murdered the king and seized the throne later on.

Xiaobai's direct elder brother was killed by Lu Wujiu because he stayed in the country.

Now Doctor An Ning of Qi State has killed Qihou Wujiu, and the two sons of the former Qihou are both abroad. Now no matter which son returns to the country, he can directly ascend to the position of monarch.

Luo Xiu had spent so much energy, of course he would not make wedding clothes for others.

Immediately said: "Xi'er, call Xiaobai here, and tell your third uncle that he is going to send troops to escort Xiaobai back to the country.

There are also the sons of the public clan who are going to Qi with Xiaobai at the same time, and you have to make arrangements, and you will personally escort him when the time comes. "

Since he wanted to send young master Xiaobai back to the country, Luo Xiu certainly wouldn't let him go back to be a puppet alone.

Not only must a group of capable people be selected from the Luo State army to act as his guards, but also those who can govern the country's affairs must be selected from the Luo State Duke and Qing Clan as his eyes and ears.

These people should have been prepared for him by his mother, but his mother died early, so he can only be given to him by his uncle.

Luo Xi nodded excitedly and said, "Good father.

In addition, Erchen has already sent people to the state of Qu to kill son Shao, so as to prevent other Qing clans in Qi state from welcoming son Shao back to Qi state, and the news should be on the way now. "

Luo Guogong's office has trained a group of assassins, all of whom are dead soldiers adopted since childhood. They specialize in doing this kind of thing, and they have never missed a shot so far.

The reason why he didn't kill Young Master Shao earlier was because Lu Wujiu was not dead yet, that was too blatant, and he was worried about arousing Lu Wujiu's vigilance.

Now that Lu Wujiu is dead, Young Master Shao may become the one who snatches Xiaobai's throne, so he must be killed. Luo Kingdom can no longer tolerate civil strife among Qi's officials to seize the throne in a short time.

In order for Lu Xiaobai to ascend the throne smoothly, Luoxiu has worked hard.

Now among the countries, there is basically no country that chooses heirs according to the patriarchal system.

Even if he is clearly established as the prince, other sons have the right to inherit, so there are often things about killing the king.

This kind of situation has never happened in Luo Kingdom, after all, who would dare to go to the ancestral temple to pay homage to King Su?

There is also the ring that the patriarch has passed down from generation to generation, which weighs as much as a thousand catties, and the regicide cannot wear it at all.

Unlike other vassal states in Luo Kingdom, concubine sons also have the right to inherit. In Luo Kingdom, concubine sons do not belong to Luo, so the number of sons in Luo Kingdom is very small. Basically, everyone knows whose turn it should be.

Hearing that his uncle summoned him, Lu Xiaobai quickly came to the palace.

"uncle!"

Lu Xiaobai saluted Luo Xiu respectfully. He was very grateful to Luo Xiu. If there was no Luo Xiu, he would be a corpse now.

"noob.

A coup took place in Qi State, Dr. An Ning killed Lu Wujiu, and now he sent envoys to Luo State to welcome you back to Qi State as the king.

Do you want to go back home?

As long as you are willing, uncle will send troops to escort you back. "

Luo Xiu looked at Lu Xiaobai with a smile and said.

Lu Xiaobai froze in place, who could remain indifferent after hearing such news?

But soon he was full of excitement. As a son who depends on others, although Luohou has always been very kind to him, who doesn't have a dream of waking up and taking power in the world?

In his dream at midnight, why didn't he think of borrowing his uncle's soldiers and horses to return to the country to seize the throne?

But he understands that as long as Lu Wujiu doesn't want to destroy the alliance between Ji and Jiang, his uncle will not attack Qi.

This is the principle that every generation of Luohou adheres to!
Now his uncle is actually willing to send troops to send him back to the country, and even asks himself if he is willing, that is the position of the monarch of Qi, a great country in the east, who would not be willing!
Without any hesitation, Lu Xiaobai immediately knelt on the ground, bowed down to Luo Xiu as a father and son, and hugged Luo Xiu's thigh directly, tears welled up in his eyes, and cried bitterly: "Uncle, nephew is willing to return to China.

It's been five years!
That villain Lu Wujiu killed his father and elder brother, slaughtered many princes, even his elder brother's three-year-old baby.

Such a villain is even more hateful than Lai Yi!
My hatred for him is like a river meandering into the sea, unless the river stops flowing, it will never end.

I know that Uncle, you are the monarch of the Luo Kingdom. If you want to maintain the stability of Zhuxia, you cannot do anything to such a big country.

So I never asked you to avenge me.

This hatred is like a fire, burning in my heart all the time. My nephew tosses and turns every night, unable to sleep.

Haotian is pitiful, now that I have such an opportunity, can I not avenge my father?
When I return to the country, I will definitely kill Wu Jiu's relatives, drag his body out, and shatter his bones and ashes.

Presumably this way my father can rest in peace.

Uncle, you are willing to protect me and raise me in times of crisis. This is what a father will do.

Now you still send troops to help me return home, what kind of kindness is this?

Even if the seal is carved on Mount Tai, even if I swear to Luoshui, I can't repay you at all. I really don't know how to thank you.

If I can return to Qi, I will dedicate to you the five cities of Ludi. "

Lu Xiaobai's words really burst into tears, and even the whole person was choked up and couldn't speak, it seemed that his emotions had been suppressed for too long.

He came to Luo country when he was young, and when he was living in Luo country, he heard the news that his father and elder brother were killed, which made him unable to return home, his hatred for Lu Wujiu is really not fake at all.

Luo Xiu patted Lu Xiaobai's shoulder to comfort him: "Xiaobai, your mother passed away early, and you are the only child left of her in this world.

This time you can become the king of Qi, presumably she will be proud of you in heaven.

After returning to Qi State, you must be a wise monarch and treat your people well, whether they are officials, nobles or countrymen, and treat them fairly, so you will be able to sit on the throne safely.

Qi State is a big country among the Xias, and Dongyi still needs Qi State's efforts to suppress it.

You have Luo Shi's blood on your body, so you are shouldering the great task of revitalizing Zhu Xia. I am looking forward to your future, and your mother must also be looking forward to your actions. "

After speaking, Luo Xiu pondered for a while and then said: "You become a monarch, there will be many beauties in the future, and there will be many heirs, but Xiyi has followed you in the end, and has done her best to you these years, you have to treat her and her kindly. her offspring.

I sent him a letter from the Marquis of Yan. You lived in Luo Kingdom before and had no fief, so he just sent some goods over.

Now that you inherit the throne, I am afraid that soon there will be relatives of Xiyi, and a large number of nobles from the Yan Kingdom will go to serve in the Qi Kingdom. These are all your help. "

Xiyi is Lv Xiaobai's regular wife, a noble daughter from the government of Yan State, who was no longer worthy of such a woman as the son Xiaobai who was exiled in a foreign country.

But Luo Xiu is just such a nephew, the so-called mother and uncle, so he specially sent Luo Xi to the country of Yan to ask for a noble daughter for him.

"uncle!"

Lu Xiaobai kowtowed heavily again, the gratitude in his heart could not be expressed in words.

[Major historical events open!Your luck points increase faster! 】

The prompt of the system attracted Ji Zhao's attention, major historical events, this is a logic program built into the bottom of the world.

Opening historical events requires the right people and the right time, because history has already undergone a lot of deviation, so not all events will continue to happen.

After Lu Xiaobai left Luo Xiu, he couldn't suppress the joy on his face at all. He even wanted to laugh out loud, but his reason still told him that he must go to Guan Zhong immediately.

If he wants to leave Luo State and return to Qi State, Guan Zhong is the person he must take away, otherwise he will not be able to make a career in the state.

Guan Zhong is a member of the Duke of Luo, and he has been well-known in recent years.

Although he has not yet become an official, Luo Guogong has equipped him with a small independent courtyard, and even has a maid.

On this day, he was still modifying his "Zun Wang" in the house, and he had to achieve a blockbuster effect.

Unexpectedly, Lu Xiaobai came to visit him suddenly. Guan Zhong has been immersed in writing these days. Lu Xiaobai knew about it, so he didn't bother him.

Guan Zhong didn't put away "Zun Wang", and the bamboo slips were listed on the table one by one.

He greeted Lu Xiaobai with a hurried look into the room with some doubts, and asked, "Xiaobai, why did you come to visit suddenly? Is there something urgent?"

Lu Xiaobai directly pulled Guan Zhong to the table, and said with a loud smile, "Ah Zhong, there was a coup in Qi, Doctor An Ning killed Lu Wujiu.

Now there is no king in the state of Qi, Dr. An Ning sent envoys to the state of Luo to welcome me back to the state of Qi to inherit the throne. Just now my uncle told me that he would send troops to escort me back to the state. "

Young master Xiaobai wants to return to the country to inherit the throne?
My best friend is about to become the king of a great country?

Guan Zhong was in a daze.

"I came here not to say goodbye to you, but to invite you to go to Qi with me.

I know that you have the ability to manipulate the world, and you are not inferior to Luo Wengong's great sage.

Su Wang once said that if the monarch knows that there are talented people but does not invite him respectfully, will his country be strong?
If you can get a virtuous person, you can discard the piles of gold.

You are such a virtuous person. If I want to achieve a career, I must have your assistance.

So I came here to hope that you can follow me to Qi, you are my best friend, and I trust you immensely.

After returning to Qi State, I am willing to hand over the ruling position to you, and I will support all your policies. "

In fact, when Lu Xiaobai said that he was going back to China, Guan Zhong had already guessed that Lu Xiaobai wanted to invite him.

Facing Lu Xiaobai's invitation, Guan Zhong hesitated a little. He is a Duke of Luo, so he naturally wanted to be an official in Luo.

But Lu Xiaobai is his close friend, and he will soon become the Marquis of Qi.

The monarch of a big country invited him so respectfully, trusted him so much, and gave him such great power, how could he refuse?
Su Wang once said that the king regards his ministers as his brothers, and the ministers regard him as his heart!

King Su, what should Zhong do with this kind of courtesy?

When Lu Xiaobai saw Guan Zhong hesitate, he naturally knew what Guan Zhong was thinking, and he bowed seriously: "Ah Zhong.

I know what you think in your heart, you are the Duke of Luo, so you want to help the Duke of Luo.

But with all due respect, there are so many talented people in the Luo Kingdom's office, even without Ah Zhong, it can still maintain its status as a big country.

The state of Qi is different. After experiencing civil strife several times, the country is now in dire straits. This is the time for you to show your strengths.

Su Wang said, "The Xia is more valuable than the barbarians and the Di." He also once said, "It is not as good as the death of the Xias to have a king in the barbarians." Turning barbarians into Xia is a great cause of kingship, and Luo Kingdom can do it without your help.

But Qi Guo can't do it!

And didn't you say you want to respect the king?

Duke Hui, the ancestor of the Luo State, said that the Luo family would not rule the Zhou Dynasty for a hundred years, and your theory of respecting the king has no room for implementation in the Luo State.

As long as you return to Qi with me, I will follow your advice.

My uncle told me today that if we want to prosper Qi, the burden of suppressing Dongyi rests on my shoulders.

As the grandson of Prince Su, Ah Zhong, don't you want to completely wipe out the Laiyi Kingdom, which is in the east of the Qi Kingdom and has been a gangrene these years?
Zhong, you always ask me what my ambition is.

A down-and-out young man in exile in another country can survive with the help of Luo Shi's blood, so how can he ask for more?
Now, solitary can be said.

It is the hope of all ancestors to wipe out Dongyi, which has not been wiped out for 300 years, and to achieve the great cause that the ancestors of Qi State did not complete.

Gu wants to straighten the way, rejuvenate the Xia, and inherit the will of King Su. This is what a half-blooded King Su and ten years of Luo's upbringing should do.

Gu needs you, you are talented enough to assist the Holy King, without you, Gu can't do this. "

Leaving aside Lu Xiaobai's specific ability to govern the country, at least his charisma is very strong.

These remarks have taken into account everything from the relationship between the two, to Guan Zhong's political ideals and identity, and even the blueprint for the future.

No matter who looks at it, this is a hero!

Having said that, Guan Zhong no longer hesitated, and bowed directly: "Guan Zhong pays homage to the king."

With this obeisance, the distinction between monarch and minister has been settled.

Lu Xiaobai excitedly helped Guan Zhong up and laughed loudly: "You and I have never known each other. With your help, I will surely accomplish great things."

Sending a son back to the country to inherit the throne is not an easy task, especially the help with the nature of political investment.

Luo Xi led five thousand soldiers and horses to escort Lu Xiaobai all the way to the border of Qi State. The small countries along the way have all greeted each other, and most of them are subordinate countries of Luo State.

On the other side of the border, people from the Duke of Qi are already waiting there. In this era, the importance of blood is reflected here.

When Lu Wujiu was alive, Lu Xiaobai's status as the former Marquis of Qi was naturally worthless.

But as long as this kind of opportunity arises, his undisputed inheritance right is a treasure that cannot be exchanged for a thousand dollars, which is called rare goods.

The interests of countless people in the Duke and Qing clans of the Qi State were tied up with him from birth.

Luo Guo can help him openly and aboveboard, and can make anyone's life's wealth, glory and wealth, be invested in him without blinking an eye.

The nobles in Yan Kingdom who have never seen him will automatically serve him when Xiyi marries him, and they are willing to do so, and even thank this down-and-out young man who they once looked down upon.

All of this is because his name is Lu Xiaobai, he is the son of Qi, the nephew of Luo, and the husband of Yan.

Now Qihou!
These people bowed down in front of him one after another, and the lives and deaths of millions of people were in their hands. Lu Xiaobai had never felt that he was so honorable, and he had never felt that his responsibility was so great.

He also bowed down to these Qi nobles. In this era, the monarchs and ministers are roughly equal. Ministers worship the emperor, and the emperor also worships the ministers.

"Xiaobai, I'm going back to the country soon. Don't forget the Chunchun teachings of the teachers and teachers in the school all these years. Be a wise monarch and revitalize Qi and Zhuxia."

Luo Xi was very happy for her cousin. Xiao Bai had lived in Luo Country for ten years, and the relationship between the two was quite deep.

"Guan Zhong followed you to Qi State, this is your chance. He is a talented person in the public family, and he will be entrusted with important tasks when he arrives in Qi State.

You have just ascended the throne, and I am afraid that even the palace guards do not have reliable manpower.

Father selected [-] warriors for you in Luo Kingdom, all of them are your old companions who are related to you. Their families are still selling their property in Guozhong, and they will all come to Qi Kingdom in the future.

Lu Wujiu was assassinated, you have to be more careful, with them protecting you, you can rest assured as a brother.

Xiaobai, leave it alone! "

Lu Xiaobai asked himself, the way he was treated in Luo Kingdom all these years is really not like a son in exile. Luo Xi has always taken good care of him. Xiaobai has nothing to repay.

Please also tell my uncle that my nephew will never disappoint my uncle's hard work. "

The two brothers said their goodbyes, and Luo Xi led the army back to Luo Country.

Lu Xiaobai led Guan Zhong and [-] armor-piercing warriors across the border to meet the Qi nobles who were already a little stranger.

The public and Qing clans of Qi State flocked over, the number was extremely large, most of these people did not belong to Wu Jiu's party, and were rejected when Lu Wu Jiu was in power.

Therefore, I am most excited about Lu Xiaobai's return, hoping to gain enough benefits in the new situation.

Doctor An Ning was naturally at the front, An's killing Lu Wujiu and bringing back Lu Xiaobai was his first contribution, so Lu Xiaobai would definitely use him again.

"My lord, you are finally back!

An's family was deeply favored by the late emperor, but let his heirs go into exile. This is a shame for the courtiers!
Now that you have finally returned to the state of Qi, you will not be ashamed to meet your predecessor after you die. "

Lu Xiaobai and Dr. An Ning held hands and wept: "Only when the world is difficult can you show your loyalty. Doctor An Ning avenges Gu, and Gu will never forget.

When Gu returns to the country this time, he must clear away the evil spirits, so that the clan and noble relatives will not be disturbed when the traitor is innocent.

Anqing, Gulai will introduce you, this is Guan Qing, a great sage of the Luo clan, his uncle reluctantly parted with Gu, and the two of them will serve as left and right slaughterhouses to assist Gu together. "

Lu Xiaobai's words pushed Guan Zhong to the front of Qi Guotai, and pointed out his identity, so that everyone dare not despise Guan Zhong.

When he arrived in Linzi, he sorted out the relationship between the state of Qi and the state, and his several reinforcements reached Qi, and Lu Xiaobai immediately appointed Guan Zhong to be in power, so as to change the weakening situation of Qi in recent years.

An Ning looked at Guan Zhong secretly, and saw that he had a handsome face, a calm expression, and a cold demeanor, and he was not an ordinary person at first glance.

Luo Hou recommended to Lu Xiaobai the people of the public family?
Regarding the matter of killing Lu Wujiu, he is the one who knows the whole process of the matter the most in the entire Qi country.

Although everyone was rumoring that he killed Lu Wujiu, he knew very well that Lu Wujiu died at the hands of the assassins of the Luo Kingdom.

If there were no assassins from the Luo Kingdom, it would not be so easy to kill Lu Wujiu so simply and neatly.

Recalling that Luo Xi was standing with the young man in front of him before, he immediately thought that this was really arranged by Luo Hou.

So he said with a smile on his face: "My lord, if the great sage recommended to you by Luohou does not use a high position to entertain him, how can he show the friendship between the two countries?

It is my honor to work with such a virtuous minister, wouldn't you be dissatisfied?

As long as it is your order, I am willing to carry it out faithfully. "

Lu Xiaobai was very satisfied with Dr. An Ning's statement, and laughed loudly: "With a great sage like Guan Zhong, and a loyal minister like Dr. An Ning, with so many virtuous ministers and assistants, wouldn't the country prosper?"

"Hey!"

The nobles cheered.

……

Duke Huan worshiped Guan Zi as his chancellor. Guan Zi had the beauty of knowing people. He remonstrated with Duke Huan, "The completion of a building is not made of a single tree; the vastness of the sea is not the return of first-class people. If you want to achieve great ambitions, you must first employ people. There are four sages in Qi State. , use it to prosper."

Duke Huan said, "What about the four?"

Guan Zi said: "Zhang Qi, the noble son of the Yan State, strong and powerful, skilled in military affairs, can be the chief commander; Wang Cheng, the great sage of the Qi state, fair and strict, and not falsely accused, can be the chief commander of bandits; An Ning, the Duke of the Luo State , loyal, upright, and well versed in the principles of the people, he can be called Da Situ; Lu Chan, a son of the public office, who studies ingenuity and is good at distinguishing mountains and rivers, can be called Da Sikong."

Duke Huan said, "Good!"

In ten years, the people of Qi said: "Ren Huan is in charge of the four heroes, so the state of Qi prospers."——"Guanzi Admonishment"
