Chapter 65

Wu Zixu was so angry that he almost scolded Bo Pi directly in the court.

Shen Baoxu was his good friend when he was in Chu State. It was only later that the two sides parted ways because of their different ambitions. However, Wu Zixu still respected this old friend.

But today Bo Pi's smearing and splashing in the court hall turned a loyal minister like Shen Baoxu into a traitor who betrayed his master and begged for glory, which made Wu Zixu almost unable to hold back.

It's just that, after all, he is a person who has endured humiliation and escaped through strong winds and waves, so naturally he won't just be dazzled by anger.

Private grievances are not as important as state affairs!
Wu Zixu clenched his fists, suppressed his anger, and said in a deep voice, "Qin won't do it, and the imperial court will definitely send troops! They didn't interfere in the disputes between vassal states in the past, but this time they are uncharacteristically!"

"They know that they may be disobeyed by us, so how can they stretch their faces to beat us for no reason?"

Wu Zixu's meaning is already very clear, he must have a trick!
It's just that Fu Chai, who was sitting on the throne, slapped the chair hard!
"Gu is going to slap them in the face!"

The hatred on Fucha's face is hard to suppress!
Dazai has analyzed the situation so clearly, the imperial court has nothing to do with them Wu Guo!
At a time like this, if people don't slap their faces when they bring them up, wouldn't that be too useless!
Seeing Fu Chai's statement, Bo Pi was very happy and couldn't help but said: "What the king said is very true!"

"In fact, in my humble opinion, the court's move may be just a bluff, and there is no motive for sending troops at all!"

"I know that the envoy's name is Fan Li, and he was originally a pariah in the Chu Kingdom. He offended many generals in the Qian court and escaped from the capital of the Qian court in embarrassment. How can such a person persuade the court to send troops?"

"Oh?"

Speaking of this, Fu Chai was taken aback suddenly: "Could it be that the little emperor has taken in the beauties of Yue, and won't he send troops to help them?"

Bo Pi and many ministers are sweating profusely. Besides you, who else would pay such a high price for a woman?
Bo Pi hastily explained: "Your Majesty, if the Yue Kingdom threatens to send troops, the imperial court will definitely not accept Xi Shi."

It's too cheap to exchange troops with a woman.

Not to mention going to the imperial court, if you go to any vassal country and ask for this condition, you will be beaten by others.

Bo Pi wiped his sweat and explained: "As far as I know, the Yue Kingdom didn't ask for anything, but only dedicated Xi Shijin to the emperor."

"And in the imperial court, what the emperor says doesn't count, but what the ministers who hold great power count."

"The Yue Kingdom also gave Xi Shi to the emperor?"

Fu Chai slammed the chair, and was already so angry that one Buddha was born and the other two ascended to heaven.

Xi Shi, who I wanted to exchange for killing my father, was unconditionally offered to the emperor by the Yue Kingdom, and he was such a useless emperor! !

"Gou Jian!!"

Fu Chai roared angrily: "I will kill you alone!"

Bo Pi wiped the fine sweat from his forehead, as if he knew something hidden.

But now is not the time to think about this, the top priority is to quickly persuade the king to make up his mind.

"Wang Shang Mingjian! Don't say that the court will not send troops, even if they do send troops, they will not be able to do anything to me, Great Wu!"

Fu Chai stared at him, even though he was so angry, he still didn't lose his mind.

He needs to ensure that Wu Guo has no worries, and that his seat is safe and stable, so that he can take revenge unscrupulously.

Being stared at by Fu Chai's wolf-like eyes, Bo Pi became more confident at this time: "Even if the imperial court sends troops, it is bound to go through Zheng and Chen to reach our Great Wu! As long as we lure Chen with a lot of money and force us to Chen, they dare not let the soldiers cross the border!"

"The Qian court has the name to attack Wu, but they have no righteousness to attack Chen."

"If you forcibly attack Chen to take the way, it will inevitably make the princes rebound, and the Qian court dare not do this!"

Wu Zixu listened for a long time, and finally found a chance to speak: "Absurd words! How could Chen Guo listen to us? With strong neighbors around, they can't sleep at night, and it's too late to get rid of us sooner!"

Fu Chai's hand holding the armrest tightened a bit, and a look of impatience flashed in his eyes, which disappeared in a flash.

Bo Pi smiled and shook his head from below: "Doctor Wu, you are too alarmist. My country of Wu is a strong neighbor. Isn't it a strong neighbor if you are in the court? In this troubled world, no one has a strong neighbor around you! A small matter makes a big difference. , is the way to survive!"

"My Great Wu's prestige has already conquered the four kingdoms, so why doesn't Chen Guo serve us sincerely?"

"With King Chen's favorite youngest son as a hostage, how could they rebel against my Great Wu?"

Wu Zixu was furious for a long time, but he felt that Bo Pi was as stupid as a pig and wicked to the bottom of his bones.

But for the sake of state affairs, he forced himself to calm down, took a deep breath, and turned to Fucha with a frown: "Your Majesty, I still think that caution should be the first priority. Our Wu State is stronger than Yue State, and we are not in a hurry to destroy Yue!"

"Right now, the imperial court is staring at you, and the best policy is to protect yourself!"

Fu Chai ignored him and just kept staring at Bo Pi.

After talking about all aspects in detail, Bo Pi finally gave a perfect summary: "I have always had a feud with the State of Yue, and the imperial court has never intervened before. Naturally, we will not obey this rash intervention!"

"Besides, the hatred of the former king is still ringing in my ears. How can the court have the right to let the king give up the hatred of the family and the country, and rebel against human relations?"

"In name, we have righteousness; in reality, we are not afraid of the imperial court! Why do we need to obey this imperial decree?"

boom!
Fu Chai slapped the chair, stood up awkwardly, with a gloomy expression, and glanced at all the officials in the hall: "Just as Dazai wants!!"

In fact, he was still a little bit dissatisfied, because his original intention was to slap the court in the face, and he didn't even pay attention to the court, and even had to scold the court back.

But what Bo Pi meant was to use such a reason to reply to the court.

How can this achieve the effect of slapping the face? ?At most, it is just arguing with reason!
It's just that Fu Chai can't care so much now.

Just now with what Bo Pi said, part of his hatred for the court and the emperor was transferred to Yue Guo and Gou Jian.

To the imperial court, at most, they can only scold a few words, and they may not even be able to scold.

But for Goujian, he can peel his skin and cramp his bones, and turn his bones into ashes!

Seeing that Fu Chai made a decision so easily, Wu Zixu became more and more angry.

But he still suppressed his anger, took a step forward, cupped his hands and said: "I also ask the king to put the overall situation first and withdraw his troops from Yue."

"Even if you turn to attack Qi Chu, it's better than continuing to attack!"

Fu Chai frowned, and the anger in his chest almost burst out.

It's just that he also held back abruptly, and walked away with a flick of his sleeves, leaving only a cold "Got it".

The princes and ministers of the Manchu Dynasty looked at each other and left the venue one after another. Only Bo Pi followed in Fucha's footsteps.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

Bo Pi took steps, and soon followed Fu Chai's footsteps in a magnificent hall.

"This Wu Zixu is getting more and more arrogant!"

Fu Chai slammed his fist on the table, his face flushed red: "Every time he discusses matters, he goes against Gu's will! I have endured him several times, can't he see it?"
