Emperor Zhou: from Aspiration to Casting a Tripod

King Xiong Lun of Chu came to Luoyi with his troops, pointed at the Nine Cauldrons, and laughed wildly: "The copper I broke off my halberd can be used to recast your divine weapons!" At that moment, the dignity of the Zhou family was crushed under the iron hooves of the princes. All the princes in the court had pale faces, but the young Emperor Zhou Ji Yan lowered his eyes and said nothing. Everyone thought that this was another generation of weak masters. But no one knew what kind of cold edge was hidden under his calm eyes. Anyone who insults me will be repaid by the country! As a result, a silent revolution started in the undercurrent: On the surface, he rewarded the princes to show his weakness to the enemy; secretly, he forged plows into soldiers and hid wealth among the people. He sent royal treasures to other countries in exchange for caravans and eyes and ears all over the world. He led the princes to conquer the Rong and Di, and what he consumed was their national strength; what he fattened was his own "king master." When the princes fought for petty profits and suffered a bloody blow, he slowly made his moves and involved the world in a larger chess game. Drive away wolves and devour tigers, and reap the benefits. He wants to reunite the divided Kyushu in his hands!
