Zhao Weiwang in the Warring States Period

The land of Yongzhou includes Guanzhong, the headquarters of Qin State today!

The entire land of Yongzhou is now in the hands of Qin.

From this, we can know how the people of Qin State yearn for this Yongzhou tripod.

In fact, Qin Wangji's elder brother, Qinwu King Zhao Dang, was severely injured by the Yongzhou tripod after he lifted the Yongzhou tripod with extraordinary bravery, and eventually died.

Qin Wangji slowly stretched out his trembling hand, and gently stroked the Yongzhou cauldron in front of him, he was infatuated for a while.

In this world, only the virtuous live there.

Doesn't the Emperor Yu's Nine Cauldrons symbolize the world?

When Qin Wangji suddenly woke up, he realized that there were already many people in the hall, and four other monarchs stood in front of a big tripod like himself, with intoxicated expressions.

It was at this time that a voice that Qin Wangji absolutely did not want to hear at this moment reached the ears of everyone in the hall.

"My lords, I must have seen enough of the Jiuding, so let's get into today's topic!"

Everyone standing in the hall heard the sound and saw Zhao Dan who was already sitting on the throne and smiling at everyone.

After waking up, when the other great kings looked at Zhao Dan, they couldn't help but look a little complicated, and they also had their own thoughts in their hearts.

Although I have heard that Luoyi was looted by Zhao people, these monarchs still did not expect Zhao Dan to move Jiuding out of Chengzhou City and put it in this hall!

There is no doubt that this move has indeed been called bold and reckless.

Very bold.

Since King Wei Hui and King Wei of Qi and King Xiang of Xuzhou, the princes of the Warring States period have completely discarded the last sliver of respect they had for the Emperor Zhou in name, and each claimed the title of king to elevate themselves to the same level as the Emperor Zhou.

However, no one dared to do such an act of directly and swaggeringly moving the Zhou Dynasty's Zhenguo Jiuding out of Luoyi like Zhao Dan.

The Nine Cauldrons, in today's age of believing in ghosts and gods, still have considerable symbolic meaning and deterrent power.

It is precisely because of this that the princes dare not act rashly, lest they will be punished by heaven for moving the nine tripods rashly.

Only people like Zhao Dan who have traveled from later generations don't care about these ghosts and gods at all.

Only the virtuous live in the world!

After all, the Jiuding is nothing more than nine symbolic totem-like mascots, if you grab it, you can grab it!

Anyway, if he doesn't grab it, Qin Wangji will also grab it when the time comes.

Rather than letting the Jiuding be placed in Xianyang Palace, it would be better to place it in Longtai.

Obviously, the appearance of Jiuding greatly shocked the other five monarchs, which can be seen from the shocked expressions on the faces of the five monarchs that have not subsided for a long time.

In addition to shock, other monarchs actually had other emotions in their minds.

"If the widow can move the Jiuding out of Chengzhou first, how good would it be?"

Thoughts of regret filled the minds of every monarch, among which the regret in Qin Wangji's heart was the most violent.

But no matter how regretful they are, it is an irrefutable fact that the Jiuding has fallen into Zhao Dan's hands.

With this sense of regret, the five monarchs started the first process of today's alliance meeting.

See you.

Who are you meeting?

Of course, it is the convener of the meeting this time, Zhao Dan, the contemporary king of Zhao State from Handan!

This court meeting ceremony, according to the regulations of Zhou Li, is actually the ceremony that the princes performed to the emperor of Zhou.

Today Zhao Dan is worshiped by other princes as a prince, which can be said to be very transgressive.

But neither the audience nor the audience felt any discomfort with this overstepping the rules.

After all, as early as the Spring and Autumn Period, Confucius had already severely criticized this kind of "corruption of rites and music", and such things as exceeding the rules had been done by the princes of the Spring and Autumn Period many times.

But this court meeting did not recognize that Zhao State had any suzerainty or ruling power over several other countries, but only recognized Zhao Dan as the initiator of the alliance, or the identity of the leader of the alliance.

So this time the court meeting was not as cumbersome as stipulated in Zhou Rituals. It was just that various countries sent people to present a list of gifts to Zhao Dan, and then the monarchs of various countries saluted Zhao Dan, and the officials of various countries paid homage to Zhao Dan. , and then the meeting ceremony is over.

But even so, when Zhao Dan looked at Qin Wangji who had a face full of resentment and could only do this ceremony of court meeting towards him with helplessness and displeasure, the sense of satisfaction in his heart still reached its peak uncontrollably in an instant.

How spectacular is the sight of the five kingdoms coming to court!

Back then at the meeting in Mianchi, the father of the widow, King Zhao Hui, was going to greet Ru Qin Wang Ji. Although the Zhao State was a powerful country in name, it was actually very aggrieved!

And this grievance, today, the widow finally got it back with interest!

A smile appeared on the corner of Zhao Dan's mouth, and this smile gradually spread on his face, which was extremely brilliant.

After seeing the ceremony, the princes took their seats.

Since the main hall this time is square, the arrangement of seats is not divided into upper and lower heads and left and right heads like in ordinary halls. Instead, all the envoys of the six countries will sit around the Yuhuang Jiuding.

Among them, Zhao Guo naturally sat in the north.

Qin State is located in the northwest next to Zhao State.

After everyone was seated, the Luoyi meeting this time officially began.

As the covenant leader this time, the first person to speak must of course be Zhao Dan.

Zhao Dan didn't talk nonsense, and asked Qin Wangji directly: "Qin Wang, when will the land of Hedong County be delivered?"

Chapter 333 Overbearing and Tough (Second More)

As soon as Zhao Dan said these words, the whole hall fell silent instantly.

Everyone knew what the Luoyi meeting represented this time, but what they didn't expect was that Zhao Dan, who was a strong party, would not even say a word of politeness when he came up, and put forward his own request straightforwardly!

Domineering, too domineering.

Looking at the domineering Zhao Dan, Qin Wangji's mood was quite complicated.

Once upon a time, Qin Wangji sat on the throne just like Zhao Dan is today, and he spoke freely to the visiting monarchs of various countries, asking for whatever they wanted.

However, in just two years since the Changping War, the entire situation has completely changed.

Zhao Dan, who is only the grandson of Qin Wangji, is now able to make such merciless demands on Qin Wangji in front of the other four kingdoms!

To be honest, if Qin Wangji knew that Zhao Dan would summon so many other monarchs after Qin State asked for an alliance, then Qin Wangji would not have proposed any alliance anyway.
