Chapter 107 What is the Nine Ding
"Nine Dings?" The jumping dialogue between Yu Qing and Wei Qi made Li Yu a little confused. He was also confused about the strange and familiar noun. Could it be that the words between scholars are like this?
"I wonder if the Lord has heard of the saying of luck?" Wei Qi asked after hearing the doubts in Li Yu's words.
"I haven't heard of it." Li Yu replied honestly. He had never heard of any luck. He was thinking about how to make him and his family live safely, but he was not proficient in what knowledge he had.
"It is said that the heaven and earth have great fortune. The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors have obtained it and changed the dynasties. Those who lose their fortune collapsed, and those who get luck won the world. The world's abdication was passed down to Emperor Yu. Emperor Yu divided the nine states and ordered the governors of the nine states to contribute bronze, cast nine tripods, engraved the famous mountains and rivers of the nine states and strange things on the body of the nine states, and used one tripod to symbolize a state, and concentrated the nine tripods in the capital of the Xia Dynasty, to conquer the world's fortune and found the five hundred years of the Xia Dynasty. It was not until Shang Tang captured Anyi and inherited the fortune of the nine tripods, which created the foundation of the Shang Dynasty for 600 years. It was rumored that King Zhou of Shang was tyrannical and harmed the people, and the nine tripods were missing. The Zhou royal family took advantage of the momentum and broke through the Yin capital Chaoge, and the nine tripods suddenly appeared. King Wu obtained it and established the foundation of the next Zhou royal family for a thousand years." As soon as he touched the long beard, Wei Qi said the theory of fortune as he cherished.
After hearing Wei Qi's words, Li Yu was even more confused. Why did he feel a bit like a mythical story? It's too mysterious. But one thing I understand is that those who get the Nine Cauldrons will get the luck of the world, and those who get the luck of the world will get the luck of the world. In other words, the Nine Cauldrons represent the world's belonging to me, which is what rice or something.
"The Lord may not be very clear. Qing said it simply. The Nine Tripods were created by Emperor Yu, and Emperor Yu was the first person to create a dynasty. Shang and Zhou even created a dynasty for hundreds of years. Therefore, the people in the world praised the Nine Tripods represent the nine provinces and the world, which also represented the beginning of rituals. The Zhou Shi declined, the rituals collapsed and the music was broken, and all the knowledgeable people in the world ran around to rebuild ethics. The Nine Tripods representing the beginning of rituals have a profound meaning. Some people said that if you get it, you can win the world. The King of Zhou relied on the Nine Tripods to continue the country's fortunes of the Zhou Shi, and then there was a saying of luck. Now, Zou Yan, a scholar in Jixia Academy in Qi State, gathered the records of his ancestors and created the five virtues and the end of the world, and was famous all over the world." When he said this, Yu Qing stopped for a long time, picked up the wine bottle on the table and took a sip.
After receiving Yu Qing's instructions, Wei Qi continued: "When the five virtues refer to, metal, wood, water, fire and earth, start from earth, end up in water, move to earth, and revolve around and cycle, and never stops. Zou Yan said that the five virtues are invincible, Yu earth, Xia wood, Yin metal, and Zhou fire, those who replace Zhou must have water virtue. This statement is based on the predecessors' sayings that there are many people in Shandong who believe in it, and then the saying of fortune is popular all over the world. The things of the Nine Cauldrons are even praised to inherit the fortune of the world and recognized by many scholars. Now the King of Zhou lives in the royal city, and the things of the Nine Cauldrons fall in Luoyi, the capital of the Western Zhou Dynasty. As long as the Qin army clearly does not attack the royal city, the nations will not be vigilant. If the Western Zhou Dynasty is destroyed, the nine cauldrons will fall into the hands of the Qin army. At that time, the King of Qin can declare the world that the Qin Kingdom inherits the fortune of heaven, and the next country that unified the world, and the knowledgeable people in the world will inevitably go to Xianyang."
After such an explanation, Li Yu finally understood. To put it simply, the Qin army's target this time was not the Zhou royal family, but the Nine Tribes in the capital of the Western Zhou Dynasty.
After hundreds of years of evolution and development, many knowledgeable people believe that the fortune of the world is gathered in the Nine Cauldrons. If any prince obtains this thing, he will definitely attract many famous scholars to like each other and even arouse consensus among the people of the world. This also explains why Qin destroyed the six kingdoms, and the six kingdoms still gathered in Xianyang and ran for the Qin Empire. It was not until the death of the Qin king's government that the foundation of Qin State was shaken. You must know that this phenomenon is simply impossible in today's world.
The example of Shang Jun is still in my ears, and all the people of the six countries in Shandong are taking it as a warning. Under the strong propaganda of the kings of the six countries, the people of the six countries in Shandong are afraid of Qin like tigers and wolves and regard it as wilderness. The Qin army's soldiers have strong combat power only because of their nature. If they were not desperate, few people would have abandoned other countries to enter Qin. Therefore, although Qin is now powerful, there is no saying that Qin will unify the world. Its accumulation in scholars is far inferior to other countries, and is only above Han and Yan.
Until King Ji of Qin took over the power of Qin, appointed Fan Ju as prime minister, and vigorously recruited the talents of the six countries in Shandong, Qin's talent reserve was slightly relieved. What's more, as soon as the talented six countries entered Qin, they were entrusted with important tasks, surpassing the old Qin nobles to show their favor, but there were still not many scholars entering Qin. Otherwise, the six countries would have run mostly in Xianyang, and the Qin King relied heavily on it, and had already suppressed the arrogance of the old Qin people. Qin would be much more stable than it is now, and Wu'an Jun would not even die. Qin had already moved towards unification.
"Sir, why should I teach me?" Li Yu was really anxious when he heard this kind of intelligence. Qin State, which was not supported by the people of the six countries, was already like this. If Qin State gets the Nine Cauldrons, and the people in the world gather in Xianyang, it would inevitably make the Qin State's momentum soar and suppress the rest of the countries. It would be difficult for Qin to control the world by one of the Qin State.
"Even high can be lost, the Western Zhou Dynasty can be destroyed, but the nine tripods cannot be gathered in Xianyang. At least let them lose a few tripods and break the fortune of the world." Yu Qing directly gave the suggestion, and the next thing depends on Li Yu.
"Okay, I will enter the palace immediately to see the king and send troops to seize the cauldron." After the banquet was suspended, Li Yu had a certain plan in his mind. In any case, he would never allow Qin's goal to achieve.
"good."
Looking at Li Yu's decisiveness, Yu Qing and Wei Qi nodded secretly after seeing it. They really did not misjudgment.
He did it as soon as he said, Li Yu said a moment to the two gentlemen, then returned to the room and changed into armor, and walked out of the door with his personal guards.
"General, there is a special envoy of the Han royal family outside the door asking for a visit."
Before Li Yu could reach the gate, Chunyuli quickly came over.
"Um."
After responding, Li Yu naturally knew the purpose of the Korean envoy, and his steps under his feet did not stop at all. When he walked to the gate, he saw a middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes standing next to the carriage in front of the door.
"Han Zhishi Shudu has seen the general." Seeing Li Yu's appearance and armor on his body, Gong Shudu guessed the identity of the young general in front of him. His anxiousness in his heart also relieved a lot and bowed gracefully.
"Mr. Gongshu is here just in time. I will come to the palace with me to meet my king." Knowing that Gongshudu's purpose was, and seeing his dusty appearance, Li Yu didn't say anything and asked him to get into the carriage in the mansion directly.
"Thank you, General."
I had guessed how many ways to meet, and I had thought about how to persuade the young general to agree to send troops to help Han, and even prepared generous gifts. Gongshudu never expected that the other party was so direct. His sincere smile made him feel warm. The king and the young master were indeed not wrong.
