But the Taoist Cihang, Samantabhadra, and Manjushri Guangfa Tianzun had already been jealous of the Primitive Tianzun's preference for Guangchengzi. In this way, after Guangchengzi was killed, the jealousy in their hearts could no longer be patient, so they had a strange intention. At this moment, the Buddha Mother of Cunti came to persuade the three to join the Western Buddhism. Under the influence of the Buddha Mother of Cunti, the three finally agreed to rebel from the Acharya and join the Buddhist sect.
At that moment, Taoist Cihang thought for a moment and said to Zhunti Buddha Mother: "But the time has not yet come, and we still cannot worship the West immediately. Please forgive me." Samantabhadra and Manjushri Guangfa Tianzun nodded when they heard this. Although the three of them were determined to join the Western Buddhism, they might not be able to go there swaggeringly. They still need to take advantage of the original Heavenly Lord's unpreparedness to act.
After hearing this, the Buddha Mother Cunti smiled and said, "The three fellow Taoists can do this. So, I will say goodbye." After that, he stood up and walked out. If Amitabha Buddha had not concealed the secrets of heaven for him, he would have been discovered by the Primitive Heavenly Lord. Seeing that the three of them agreed, he hurriedly left.
After Cihang and others watched Zhunti leave, they began to discuss how to apostate. This matter is of great importance, so naturally the Primitive Heavenly Lord should not be noticed, otherwise how could they have the fate of seeking the West? At this moment, the three agreed that as long as the Primitive Heavenly Lord relaxed a little, the three of them would leave Kunlun Mountain and seeking the West.
At this time, the Primitive Heavenly Lord was still happy for the three additional quasi-saints under his sect, but he didn't know that three of them would immediately rebel and leave.

The ancestor star, since the earthly world was opened and the immortals were separated, the theory of gods and immortals gradually only appeared in legends. At this time, the disciples of each sect were in seclusion and realized the gains of the great catastrophe of the gods, and they were unable to preach themselves. In this way, worshiping saints on earth gradually became a custom.
Let’s talk about the grandson of King Wu, because he respected the saints of heaven and earth, he discussed with his ministers and claimed to be the emperor. From then on, the emperor has been passed down to later generations. When it was passed down to King You, the treacherous and treacherous dynasties were rampant in the Western Zhou Dynasty. The virtuous ministers could no longer be with the foolish monarchs and treacherous ministers, which caused the people's lives to be in trouble. Even in a good harvest, they would be hungry everywhere. If they encountered natural disasters and man-made disasters, there would be dozens of miles of deserted villages and few families.
The court at this time was already weak. Fortunately, the princes in various places still remember the legends passed down from their ancestors. The Western Zhou Dynasty was protected by the immortals of the Chan Sect and dared not rebel easily.
It is said that King You was a man of a man who was violent and merciless, and had no constant movements. When he was in the Yin Dynasty, he begged the small people, drank and ate meat, and had no desire to be sad. His wife, Empress Jiang, was the descendant of Jiang Wenhuan, the Marquis of Dongbo. The Jiang family has been guarding Donglu for generations, and this has been the case since the Shang Dynasty. Empress Jiang was virtuous, kind and virtuous, and her mother was in the world. Everyone in the world praised him. King You was incompetent, but most of the government orders in the court came from Empress Jiang.
Empress Jiang worked day and night, but finally fell ill. She passed away in her thirty years old. After Empress Jiang died, King You became more and more afraid, indulged in the voice and disregarded the government. It was also the Western Zhou Dynasty that the loyal and straightforward ministers in the court died one after another. King You also used three playboys, Gong Jigong and Yin Qiu, the son of Yin Jifu, to be ranked among the three. All of them were young friends of King You, who were slandering and flattering, and those who were greedy for the throne and wealth, but the king wanted to please him, and he was too busy to please him.
However, the doctor Baoshang lived with Baocheng. He angered the emperor because he submitted a letter to King You, and was imprisoned in Chaoge Prison. Since then, he advised Jinglu, and the wise and heroes disintegrated. There was a farmer in Baodi, who had a daughter, named Baosi. He was only 14 years old at the time, but he looked like he was sixteen or seventeen years old and Ji. He also had beautiful eyes, red lips, white teeth, dark clouds, and sharp jade. He had a look like flowers and moons, and was as beautiful as the country. First, he lived in a remote place, and second, Baosi was young, so although he was beautiful, no one hired him.
Besides, Baoshang had a son named Hong De. Since Baoshang was imprisoned, Hong De thought about how to save his father from prison day and night.
One day, Hong De traveled to Baodi and accidentally saw Baosi, which was shocked to heaven. At this moment, Hong De thought to himself, "King You likes beauty. If you offer such a beauty, you will save your father from the cage." Then he agreed with the big agreement that he bought Baosi with 300 pieces of cloth and dozens of acres of fertile land and only called him brother and sister. After Hong De returned home, he taught Baosi to use etiquette and then brought it to Haojing and presented it to King You.
When King You saw Bao Si, he saw his appearance and attitude, which was beyond his sight. When he was waiting for him, his glory shone brightly. He was immediately happy and felt that the 3,000 hamlet could not match this woman. He immediately pardoned the guilt of praise, ordered him to return to the back cover, and his salary was increased by a thousand stones. Since then, King You and Bao Si were sitting together, standing together, drinking together, and eating together, and not going to work for ten consecutive days.
Since King You got praise, he was obsessed with his beauty and lived in Qiongtai for about three months, and he never entered the harem.
Although Bao was born in a humble state, she was both intelligent and visionary. After entering the palace, she had the convenience and was like a sponge into the water, trying hard to learn various knowledge. She was favored by King You, and the conditions were unique and smart. She studied for a month and was about the same as others for a year. After several years, she also knew about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. From then on, she was even more popular with the emperor. In less than a few months, King You appointed her as the queen.
Bao Si has become a mother of a country from a village woman, and has a special favor, but she never smiles. King You used all kinds of means to please her, wanting to make fun of her, summon musicians to beat bells and drums, chew bamboos and silks, and the palace servants sing and dance, but Bao Si was completely unhappy.
King You was anxious and had to ask: "Zi Tong hates listening to music, what's the matter?"
Bao Si just said nothing. When she was anxious, she said, "I have no hobbies. I just remembered the color of the hand and the sound was so refreshing."
It turned out that when Bao Si was young, her family was poor and she wanted to wear it. She was covered in linen clothes. One day, the daughter of the village was passing by in silk clothes, which made her very jealous. Later, the woman had her silk shirt hanging on the car and tore it, which made Bao Si very happy, and it was like the most beautiful music in the world. She had this time said.
King You said, "Since I like to hear the sound of cracking, why not speak early?" He immediately ordered the treasury to raise hundreds of lottery tickets a day, so that those who are strong palace maids can split them to please Baosi.
Unfortunately, Bao Si was dressed in a long and beautiful manner. When she heard this sound again, she no longer felt the pleasure of the past and still had no smile on her face.
King You had no choice but to summon all the ministers and said, "No matter who is inside and outside the palace, anyone who can praise the queen will be rewarded with a thousand gold."
At this time, a famous Shifu offered a plan: "In the past dynasties, the former kings set up more than a hundred Yanduns in Chaoge, and dozens of big drums were installed. However, there were bandits, which set up wolf smoke and soared into the sky. The nearby princes sent troops to rescue each other, and then yelled the big drums and urged them to come. Today, the peace and the beacon fires were all extinguished. If my lord wants the queen to speak, he must visit the sacred mountain with the Queen. At night, the princes will raise the beacon smoke and the princes will arrive. If there is no enemy, the queen will undoubtedly laugh."
The so-called sacred mountain is Taohua Mountain outside Haojing City. This mountain is the most magnificent place outside Chaoge City. Because Jiang Ziya was named a god in Taohua Mountain back then, he was known as a sacred mountain. After King Wu ascended the throne, he established the ancestral system and was not allowed to go to the sacred mountain at will. Only by worshiping sacrifices during the four seasons can you climb the mountain to worship the gods in the heavenly court.
King You was overjoyed when he heard this and said, "This plan is very good!" So he drove to Taohua Mountain with Bao Si. At this time, there were many treacherous people in the court, and there were few loyal and upright people who were humble but had weak positions and could not be dissuaded. At that time, the banquet was held on the Venerable God Platform, and the orders were issued to raise beacons, and the drums were raised again. The drums were sounded like thunder, and the cannons were cannons in the sky.
The Western Zhou Dynasty can be divided into five parts, Haojing is in the middle, and the four towns are the four towns of Bohou. The Chaoge beacon together, and the east reaches Youhun Pass, the south reaches Sanshan Pass, the west reaches Wuguan, and the north reaches Yellow River. The princes from all over the country suspected that there was a change in Haojing, so they immediately led their troops and generals and rushed overnight.
When he arrived at Haojing, he found that the wind was calm and there was no sign of rebellion. He traced the roots and came to Taohua Mountain, but heard the sound of flutes and tubes endlessly. However, King You and Concubine Bao drank and had fun on the Venerable God Platform. When he saw the princes, King You smiled and said, "Fortunately, there are no foreign invaders, so he doesn't have to travel."
The princes looked at each other and rolled up the flag. The concubine was on the upper floor, leaning on the railing to see the princes busy back, but there was nothing happening, and she smiled unconsciously. King You felt a little drunk and was overjoyed, saying, "I can finally see my beloved concubine smile, and it is worth it to change the sky." Then he rewarded Shifu with a thousand gold coins. This is the matter of King You playing with the princes.
But after this incident, Bao Si disappeared again. Seeing this, King You repeatedly used beacon fire to attract the princes to play with him. It was so great that the people were exhausted and the money was damaged. These princes in Haojing were actually the most loyal families of princes, but even though they were loyal to the Western Zhou Dynasty, after several tosses, they gradually began to be disloyal.
Later, the Quanrong clan really attacked. King You ordered people to light up the beacon fire and summon all the princes to come to help. However, the princes thought that King You was playing with him again, so they ignored him. King You suffered the consequences and was killed by Quanrong. Later, King Ping moved east to Luoyi and began the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. Since then, the Zhou Dynasty has no longer had any prestige.
At the same time, the power of the vassal states gradually became stronger and attacked each other. Some princes even began to attack Luoyi. None of the vassals in the world came to worship each year. The government orders issued by Luoyi could only be implemented near the royal city. At this time, the Great Zhou was like an old man. Although he was named the common ruler of the world, he had actually lost control of the princes in various places.
To the east of Taihang, there were princes named Qi. Since King You came to power, the princes have become independent, and this Qi was one of the earliest batch. Duke Qi abolished the well-field system, determined taxes based on the fertility of the land, set up salt, iron officials and minted coins, and integrated troops to farming, quickly becoming the most prosperous and powerful country among all countries.
After King Ping moved eastward, the lord of Qi was also replaced many times, and when Duke Huan was in great strength, the country was even more powerful.
Duke Huan also had a king who was appointed as the prime minister. He first implemented the division of the country and the country's country, with the capital as the country, and the others as the country. There were twenty-one townships in the country, including six townships in industry and commerce, and fifteen townships in scholars. Each five houses were set up as one track, ten tracks were set up one liter, four miles one line, and ten townships were set up one township for his ministers. Three tribes were set up three tribes, three townships were set up three townships, three Yu townships were set up, and three mountains were set up three lords were set up three townships, three townships were set up three lords, and three lords were set up three lords, and three lords were set up one township, three townships were set up one county, and ten counties were set up one dependent, and the five lords were set up one dependent.
The residents of Qi must serve in the military. They train during the slack farming period and go on a war. This not only improves the combat effectiveness of soldiers, but also does not have to pay the cost of raising soldiers. In addition, in order to solve the problem of insufficient weapons, it is stipulated that weapons can be used to atone for crimes. In the fifth year of Duke Huan of Qi, he summoned the princes of Song, Chen, Cai, and other countries to form an alliance, becoming the first prince in history to act as the leader of the alliance.
Since then, people have entered the Five Hegemons of the Spring and Autumn Period.
