Chapter 651 Jizhou Hou Suhu [Sixth Update]
A few days later, this day was supposed to be the day when Wen Taishi's class teacher returned to the court. However, less than a thousand miles away from Chaoge, Wen Taishi suddenly heard that barbarians were invading the Shang Dynasty border in the south. Even if it was Furious.
Wen Taishi did not care about returning to the court, so he quickly ordered the army to turn around and march towards the south. He wanted the southern barbarians to completely defeat the fear in order to show the power of the Celestial Dynasty. The foundation of the Shang Dynasty was not something that could be plundered casually. .
King Zhou, who was in the palace, heard that Taishi Wen was approaching Chaoge. However, he heard that there was a war on the border, so he redirected his army and headed towards the border. Immediately before going to court, King Zhou was very generous with his praises and praised Taishi Wen. He greatly praised his practice and asked all civil and military officials to follow suit.
Fei Zhongyouhun, who has always been observant of words and expressions, also praised Grand Master Wen lavishly at this time, but there is no doubt that the praises of both of them were exchanged for the contempt of the civil and military officials. After all, they all knew that these two were The one who is in the right position with his smooth beard and flattery.
Time flies, and looking back, two months have passed. It is now April in summer. The four major princes and eight hundred small princes of the Shang Dynasty came to Chaoge with tributes to prepare to present gifts to meet the emperor.
The four major princes are Dongbohou Jiang Huanchu, Nanbohou E Chongyu, Xibohou Jichang, and Beibeihou Chonghou Hu. They are all big princes in one area, and their jurisdiction is extremely vast.
All the princes in the world came to court and sang. At this time, the Grand Master heard that Zhong was not in the capital, and King Zhou favored Fei Zhong and Youhun. All the princes knew that the two men were in control of the government and were good at exercising authority, so they had no choice but to bribe them with gifts to win over them. As the saying goes: "Before I go to court the emperor, I come to pay homage to my husband."
But among the various princes, there was a man whose nature was like a fiery fire, upright and upright. He knew that Ben and Jing were destined to be together. In the past, when he saw the slightest injustice or lawlessness, he would enforce the law and punish him, many times under false pretenses. Therefore, he and the two of them never gave any gifts. This person is Su Hu, the Hou of Jizhou.
Originally eight hundred princes presented gifts, how could anyone else carefully check who did not give gifts? But Fei Zhongyouhun was able to do it. The two divided the gifts overnight, and in the end they found out that Jizhou Hou Suhu didn't give the gift, so he was furious.
Although the four major princes and eight hundred minor princes came, no one could see the emperor's face. On that day, King Zhou only summoned the four great princes to come to the court. As for the other princes, they were all in Chaoge City. Set up camp outside.
After the four great princes entered the main hall of the palace, they knelt down and worshiped King Zhou. King Zhou allowed you and others to excuse themselves and discussed some national affairs and the system of princes. After that, King Zhou asked them all to leave.
In the middle of the night, King Zhou sent Fei Zhongyouhun to preach in the main hall and said: "I was in the main hall that day, talking about the beauty pageant in the world, but I didn't want to be blocked by Prime Minister Shang Rong. Now I want to start the beauty pageant again, so let After the four princes returned to their country, they presented the beauties of their own country, what did the two noble families think?"
Fei Zhongyouhun glanced at each other and understood the meaning of the deal. He pretended to think deeply, and then said: "The Prime Minister admonished to stop the selection of beautiful women. Your Majesty tolerated it that day and executed the order. This is a virtue. I know it all, and everyone knows it. Everyone knows it, and the world admires him."
"Once you resume your journey now, your Majesty will not be able to win the trust of your subjects, so you must do it. I recently visited Jizhou Hou Suhu and found a daughter. She is beautiful and has a quiet and gentle nature. If she is chosen to be included in the palace curtains and serve around her, she will be worthy of her appointment." Serve. How about choosing a daughter who will not disturb the people of the world and will not attract anyone's attention."
Fei Zhongyouhun told Su Hu's daughter. In fact, the two of them didn't know what Su Hu's daughter looked like, but they resented Su Hu for not knowing the rules and dare not give them gifts. This time, Su Hu Mamoru knows how powerful they are.
Sure enough, when King Zhou heard that there was a beautiful woman, his eyes flashed and he hurriedly said: "Do you take the words of your two beloved ladies seriously?"
Fei Zhongyouhun had never seen it, so naturally he was not sure, but he said: "The beauty of Su Hu's daughter is unparalleled, and it is known to the world. Even if she is not as beautiful as Nuwa, she must be extraordinary. Your Majesty can recruit her into the palace." one look."
King Zhou was overjoyed and announced a decree overnight, asking Jizhou Hou Su Hu to enter the palace to meet the king. After receiving the decree, Su Hu was doubtful, but how could he dare to neglect it? After all, the princes from all walks of life would dare not to listen to the emperor's words. .
In less than half an hour, Jizhou Hou Su Hu came to the main hall and knelt before King Zhou. King Zhou obviously had no intention of saying more to Su Hu and went straight to the topic.
"I heard that you have a daughter who has a quiet virtue and moderate behavior. I would like to choose her to serve in the harem. As a relative of the country, you will receive her heavenly salary and her prominent position. She will stay in Jizhou forever, enjoy peace and health, be famous all over the world, and be envied by everyone in the world. . What do you think, your Majesty?" King Zhou waved his sleeves, his body filled with the aura of a king, and he spoke majestically.
When Su Hu heard this, he immediately felt anxious. He knew that King Zhou was lustful, so he asked his daughter Daji not to leave the house as much as possible. Unexpectedly, the news reached King Zhou's ears, but Su Hu then discovered that King Zhou The two people beside him were Fei Zhongyouhun.
Su Hu immediately understood that it was because he did not offer a gift that he caused Fei Zhongyouhun to talk about his daughter in front of King Zhou. Thinking of this, Su Hu was furious, but how could he use force in front of the emperor?
Su Hu said seriously: "Your Majesty's palace, there are thousands of concubines on top, and concubines on the bottom. How can you be charming and charming, not enough to please the king's ears and eyes? I listened to the flattering words of the left and right, and trapped Your Majesty in injustice. Kuang Chennu Puliu is of poor quality, has no knowledge of etiquette, and has no virtue. I beg your majesty to pay attention to the foundation of the country, and kill this slanderous villain, so that future generations in the world will know that your majesty has a sincere heart to cultivate himself, listens to advice, and is not a lustful king. , isn’t it beautiful!”
But King Zhou laughed loudly: "You are not familiar with the general concept. From ancient times to the present, who would not want a woman to be the lintel of the family. Kuang Nu is a concubine, and she is the noble enemy of the emperor; Qing is a relative of the emperor, and you are so illustrious and honorable, who is more honorable than this! Qing! Do not be confused, judge yourself."
Su Hu was furious and said: "Your Majesty, you must know how to be virtuous in order to make the world surrender. If you do this, wouldn't it ruin Chengtang's six hundred years of foundation?"
"Presumptuous." King Zhou stood up and looked at Su Hudang, even though he was furious: "I just want to accept your daughter as my concubine. It's just that you don't want to be grateful. You actually dare to curse my country. How can I?" Let me tolerate you."
Just when King Zhou was about to kill Su Hu, Fei Zhong and You Hun realized that the matter was serious. Even if they tried to dissuade King Zhou and said that they would send Su Hu back to his country, Su Hu would definitely be grateful to His Majesty for his kindness and give their daughter to him. Delivered.
In this way, King Zhou finally released Su Hu back.
Su Hu returned to the inn, and the generals asked why His Majesty had summoned him. When Su Hu told the whole story, all the generals immediately cursed him as a fool.
Su Hu was also furious. When he led his generals to return home, in anger, Su Hu wrote a poem on the city gate.
"If you break the rules of your ministers, you will defeat the five permanent members. Su Hu of Jizhou will never go to Shang Dynasty!"
