I believe that Duke Xi of Qi is a handsome and passionate man. He not only gave birth to the lecherous Duke Xiang of , but also gave birth to Xuanjiang and Wenjiang who stirred up chaos in Weiguo and Luguo. We have already talked about Xuanjiang before, and today we will tell the story of Xuanjiang's sister Wenjiang.

Wen Jiang is a princess with both talent and beauty, but she is not particular about her personal style. Before he left the cabinet, he had an affair with his half-brother, who later became Duke Xianggong of Qi. Duke Xi of Qi was very angry when he found out, but the family scandal could not be made public. Later Zheng Guo Prince Hu helped Qi Guo defeat Rong Di. Qi Xigong wanted to marry Wen Jiang to Hu twice, but Hu rejected him on the grounds that "Qi Da Fei".

More and more people know about Wen Jiang and Qi Xianggong, and Qi Xigong feels that he must quickly find Wen Jiang a husband-in-law. It happened that the king of Lu State Duke Huan of Lu came to propose marriage. Duke Xi of Qi agreed and married Wen Jiang to Lu State. He stayed in Lu State like this for more than ten years.

After the death of Duke Xi of Qi, Duke Xiang of Qi came to the throne. The Zhou royal family wanted to marry Qi, so they entrusted Duke Huan of Lu to mediate with Duke Xiang of Qi. As soon as Wen Jiang heard that her husband, Duke Huan of Lu, was going to Qi, he immediately begged to go back to his parents' home to visit his relatives. Duke Huan of Lu took his wife on the road without thinking too much.
When he arrived in the state of Qi, when he heard that his sister, whom he had been thinking about day and night, was back, he was so happy that he couldn't sleep. After the banquet, he kept Wen Jiang in the palace and behaved casually on the pretext of keeping his sister to talk about the family affairs.
When Duke Huan of Lu saw that his wife had not returned home all night, he could not help but be suspicious. In the next few days, Duke Xianggang of Qi and Wen Jiang flirted with each other and made intimate gestures. Duke Huan of Lu saw it and remembered it in his heart. As soon as the business was over, he asked Qi Xianggong to resign and go home. Qi Xianggong had only been intimate with his sister for a few days, and he still couldn't bear to see his sister Wen Jiang leave. So he forced Duke Huan of Lu to stay, saying that it was not easy for Duke Huan of Lu to visit Qi State. He had to visit Qi State’s landscapes and customs no matter what! During the trip, Duke Xianggang of Qi sent Peng Sheng to beat Duke Huan of Lu to death in his car, pretending that Duke Huan of Lu died of a sudden illness after drinking.

After Duke Huan of Lu died, Wen Jiang's son came to the throne, who was Duke Zhuang of Lu . Duke Zhuang of Lu sent people to the Qi State to ask questions, saying that my father was fine when he came here, so why did he suddenly die suddenly? Qi Xianggong felt guilty, so he broke Peng Sheng's chariot and made him a scapegoat. As for Wen Jiang, he stayed in Qi State, enjoying himself with Qi Xianggong every day!
As time went by, Wen Jiang’s son quit. First, he had long heard about the incest between his mother and his uncle, and second, his father had died and his mother had stayed in Qi State for a long time, but she still had no shame in messing around with her uncle. He informed the State of Qi to send Wen Jiang back immediately. If nothing was done, the two countries would go to war. In order to avoid war between the two countries, Duke Xiang of Qi sent Wen Jiang to settle down in a place called Zhuo on the border of Lu and Qi. From then on, Qi Xianggong often secretly went to Zuidi to have private meetings with Wen Jiang in the name of hunting.

After the death of Duke Xiang of Qi, Wen Jiang still lived in the land of Zhu. Due to his outstanding talents, Wen Jiang often made suggestions for his son Duke Zhuang of Lu, which played a positive role in the development of the Lu State and was highly recognized in history.
