In ancient times, there were always some monarchs who would do stupid things and cause military disasters. For example, the story of the prince in Zhou Youwang's bonfire drama is well known. During the Spring and Autumn Period, Duke Qing of Qi also did an absurd thing. He smiled for Bo's mother. Carefully arranged? Laughing at the ambassadors of the four countries with physical defects led to the joint revenge of the four countries, almost captured, and the mother almost became a hostage.
This should start with the hegemony of Chu Jin. After the war, Jin's influence was weakened, and his younger brothers Zheng, Chen and Song all took refuge in Chu, and even Qi and Lu refused to listen to it, the overlord of the Central Plains. In order to maintain his hegemony and win over other countries, Duke Jing of Jin sent a prestigious Zhengqing envoy to Lu and Qi.
In 592 BC, he made his first mission to Lu, and his doctor's father Ji followed him to Qi. On the way, they met the leaders of Sun Wei and Cao Cao. It is really fate. The four envoys all had the idea of making friends with Qi, so they all went to Linzi, the capital of Qi.
Qi Qinggong felt quite funny after seeing these four messengers. What happened? It turns out that the four ambassadors of Jin, Lu, Wei and Cao all have their own physical defects. These four messengers have their own disabilities, paralysis, baldness, postscript and camel. It's not surprising to look at the merits alone, but it's particularly obvious when you look at it together. People are curious, even if they are surprised, it's nothing. We should be polite to others. But Qi Qinggong didn't. When he returned to the palace, he laughed at these messengers with physical defects and said that he would listen to his mother, Xiao Shutong, in order to please his unfortunate mother. Little Shu Tong was very interested, so he had to have a look.

Qi Qinggong is a dutiful son and a fool. He agreed with Xiao Furen's idea, completely ignoring the etiquette between countries, and carefully arranged a farce. At that time, there were rules for the communication between countries, such as which country the emissary went to, and the host country had to provide chariots and horses, and so on. Bad things came from Qi Qinggong.
According to the different defects of the four messengers, he arranged four people with the same disability. Kim blinded one of his eyes. Give him one back? Cyclops? The coachman who made Lu bald also got one? Mediterranean? Who made me give him a lame coachman and Cao hunched his back and gave him one? Luo Guo? . Qi Qinggong secretly thought he was very clever, but the doctor Guo Zuo thought it was inappropriate. He aligned himself with Qing Gong and said: When the host and guest meet, courtesy comes first, and no drama is allowed. ? But Qi Qinggong didn't realize the seriousness of the problem and thought it was no big deal. I am the king of this country. Can't I make my mother happy by doing this little thing? I didn't take Guo Zuo's advice.
Celebrating the celebration? Carefully planned? At noon, the welcoming ceremony began: when four disabled servants led four messengers through Mrs. Xiao's residence in the back garden of Qi State, Mrs. Xiao and the ladies-in-waiting opened the curtain to watch. Pairs of stingers, baldies, post and camels passed by, and Xiao Taihou and the ladies-in-waiting pointed at each other, and finally burst into laughter.

Kinsishko heard the laughter, then looked at several other messengers and their drivers, and immediately understood the reason why they were laughed at. The other three messengers were indignant, especially when they found that it was Mrs. Qi's uncle, Xiao Tong, who took the lead in laughing at them. They didn't expect to come for friendship, but they were teased by Qi and his mother, and they had to lose face. The four people were so popular that they left without saying goodbye and left angrily. The four messengers who left vowed to take revenge for this. They agreed to report that the monarch of Qi was so rude and * * * crusaded against Qi.
However, the four messengers did not appear immediately after they came back. After all, the national interest comes first. Not everyone is as headstrong as Qi Qinggong, and he can do whatever he wants. But in the end, the blind action of Qi finally provided the four countries with a reason to send troops for revenge.
As we know, in the Spring and Autumn Period, it was first dominant, but in the Qing Dynasty, the national strength and prestige were weakened, and Jin became the overlord of the Central Plains. Although Qi Qinggong was a little confused, he also wanted to restore Qi's former hegemony.

In 589 BC, Qi took Lu Wei as an excuse to take refuge in Chu and attacked Lu Wei as the enemy of the Central Plains countries. As small countries, Lu and Wei couldn't resist the attack of Qi's army and turned to their eldest brother Jin for help. When Kim saw it, it happened that the new hatred and the old hatred were also counted together. Let's lead 800 chariots and 60,000 soldiers to rescue Lu and Wei and crusade against Qi. Xi Ke waited for two years and finally got the chance of revenge. He and Lu's father Ji, Wei's grandson and Cao Gongzi led the army to kill Qi.
Qi Qinggong led 500 chariots to war. He sent Guo Zuo and two generals to deal with the armies of Lu, Wei and Cao, and personally dealt with the Jin army.
Xi Ke personally drummed to encourage the charge. Qi Jun flew an arrow and hit him on the shoulder, bleeding profusely. He did not flinch. He is bent on defeating the Qi army. Under the call of his brave drumming, the Jin army became more and more brave and defeated the Qi army.

Finally, Jin Jun surrounded Qi Qinggong in Huabuwa Mountain (north of Licheng County, Shandong Province), and the ugly father of General Qi aligned with the celebration and said: It seems that we can't escape. Let's get dressed quickly. The master will sit in my position and play the liegeman. I'll find a chance for the master to break through. ? Qi Qinggong can only do this at first sight, otherwise he is really a prisoner.
Han Zeng, the general of the state of Jin, killed him first and caught the ugly father who pretended to be the king of Qi. Every ugly father pretends to be too thirsty to speak and asks his men to fetch water with a ladle. This man is Qi Qinggong. He pretended to be a courtier, and he took the opportunity to escape. Han Jue couldn't wait for the bearer to come back, so he took ugly dad back. The four-power allied forces were very happy when they caught Qi Hou, but when they looked intently, they were fooled first if it was not Qi Hou. At this moment, the ugly father spoke: My master managed to escape. Are you too late? Han Jue was furious.
However, we can't escape from the first day and the fifteenth. The allied forces of the four countries are unstoppable, approaching Linzi, the capital of Qi. Seeing that the tide was gone, Qi Qinggong could only die without peace, so he sent Guo Zuo with a gift to make peace with Ke and asked the four countries to withdraw their troops. Xi Ke's hatred of humiliation is still burning. Not only was he not treated with courtesy, but he was also laughed at by his wife. So he proposed two conditions for peace. One is to use the mother flute and uncle of Qi State as collateral, and the other is to change the furrow of Qi State into east-west direction, so as to facilitate the chariot of Jin State to travel from west to east.
Both of them were unacceptable to Qi, and Guo Zuo was angry. Since ancient times, no country has ever heard of taking a country's mother as a hostage. The ridges and valleys of Qi have always been arranged naturally according to the terrain, and it is impossible to change them into east-west directions. ? Guo Zuo thought it was deliberately making things difficult for Ke and there was no need to make peace, so he turned around and left, determined to fight to the death.
This move frightened Lu and Wei, and small countries have been struggling to survive in the cracks. The fight between two elephants will eventually hurt these ephemera. Although the State of Jin can defeat the State of Qi, when the State of Jin is gone, it is inevitable that the State of Qi will not retaliate, but it will still meet them. So they euphemistically persuaded Jin to be lenient and finally reached a compromise. Qi contributed the treasures and land of Jin, surrendered to Jin, returned the land of Lu and Wei, and promised not to invade again. In exchange, the ugly father who made great contributions to the rescue was put back to Qi.

The following year, Qi Qinggong, who returned to the State of Jin, took a lot of jewels to visit the State of Jin to repair the relationship between the two countries. Zuo Zhuan became a three-year cloud:? When the Qi and Hou Dynasties were in Jin Dynasty, jade articles were awarded. Xi Ke hurried forward and said: In this trip, you are a woman's ridicule and insult, but I dare not accept it. ?
That is to say, when Qi Huangong is visiting to hold a jade ceremony, Dick is still worried that Qi Qinggong's mother will laugh at him and laugh at Qi Qinggong in court. This time, you are ashamed to win a woman's smile. ?
After the Jin Dynasty, Qi Qinggong realized the negative impact of his mistakes on the country, conducted self-reflection, opened up a garden for his own play, bid farewell to the lavish life, made great efforts to reduce people's taxes, and took out his savings to help people in need; Foreign exchanges are kind to countries and envoys, respected by vassal States, and countries will not attack again.
