What is the historical story of Qi Huangyang in Jin State?
Qi Huangyang was adapted from Zuo Zhuan.

During the Spring and Autumn Period, several great powers often sent troops to conquer other countries in order to compete for hegemony. At that time, the military strength of the State of Jin was relatively strong, and the monarch of the State of Jin mourned the public and decided to let Qi Huangyang be the lieutenant of the Chinese army, responsible for leading the soldiers driving chariots.

A few years later, Qi Huangyang wanted to retire, so he asked Duke Xiang of Jin to allow him to resign.

The funeral official said: "The Chinese army lieutenant has a great responsibility. You have been in the army for many years, and you must have the right person in mind. Who do you think can replace you? "

"I think it's good to know foxes." Qi antelope wanted to think, solemnly said.

Aigong was deeply surprised and said, "Xie Hu is not your enemy?" How can I recommend him? "

"The master asked me who could shoulder this heavy responsibility, but he didn't ask him if he was my enemy!"

"Well, I believe you, just do it according to your opinion!"

Aigong immediately sent messengers to call Xiehu, but Xiehu was seriously ill and bedridden, and soon died. Aigong had to ask Qi Huangyang to recommend another person who could replace him.

"It seems that only Wu Qi can hold this position." QiHuangYang wanted to think, solemnly said:

Aigong was very surprised: "Isn't it your son? You recommend him, are you afraid that people will say that you are biased? "

"The master asked me to recommend someone who can replace me, which is related to national security. I must be careful. I thought, which person in the DPRK has military talent and can undertake this important task. I didn't even think about whether he was my enemy or my relatives. "

Aigong decided to give way to the inherited Wei throne.

At that time, people admired Qi Huangyang, saying that he raised his arms outside to avoid enemies and raised his arms inside to avoid relatives. It's really rare to do things so openly!
