Chapter 18
At the court meeting, Qingji discussed state affairs with a group of ministers and officials, mainly discussing how to appease the people and how to deal with Helu.

Because after Qingji took control of the capital of Wu, each city in the state of Wu basically depended on whether it could be passed on, and there was no need for Qingji to send out a single soldier to conquer it!

For example, Wuyuan, Yu'er and other areas in the south of the state of Wu, no matter whether it is Qingji or Helu, as long as one of them can rush there first, the ownership of the place is his.

"Your Majesty, I have something to announce!"

Just then, a slightly magnetic voice sounded.

Qing Ji looked up, and saw that the other party was a young man wearing a black court dress and a crown!

He was more than seven feet long, with a slightly fat body and a ruddy complexion. He was clearly from aristocratic family.

In other words, in the imperial court of the Wu Kingdom, there are many nobles who were born in noble families, and Qing Ji has long been familiar with it!

"Who are you?"

"This... Your Majesty is really a nobleman who forgets things too much. This little minister is Bo Tong, the next doctor."

The young man who called himself Bo Tong laughed awkwardly.

Before Qingji led the army into the palace gate, he personally knelt down to greet Qingji with the seal of the king of Wu. Unexpectedly, when the latter turned his head, he would forget himself!
Could it be that my uncle's appearance is really so ordinary that it's hard to find it in the crowd?
Bo Tong was very depressed in his heart, but he didn't dare to show the slightest dissatisfaction on his face.

uncle?

Qingji remembered.

When he entered the palace, because the sky was too dark, Qingji couldn't see Bo Tong's appearance clearly, so he couldn't remember clearly!
But, how could Qingji not be clear about Bo Tong?
This is a generation of treacherous ministers of the Wu Kingdom in history, the treacherous villain who killed Wu Zixu and ruined the foundation of the Wu Kingdom!

You know, Bo Tong was still recommended by Wu Zixu to Helu, and once he gained power, he forgot about the kindness of Wu Zixu's recommendation, and made many gossip in front of Wu Wang Fuchai.

In the end, Wu Zixu, a famous official of a generation, was forced to commit suicide and died of injustice!

It is worth mentioning that Wu Zixu's fate was extremely miserable.

In history, Wu Zixu was given a sword by Fuchai, the king of Wu, to kill himself. Before he died, he left a last word in spite of his anger, asking his family to dig out his eyes after his death and hang them on the east gate so that Wu Zixu could see them with his own eyes. Let the Vietnamese army destroy the state of Wu!

Fu Chai was furious, and wrapped Wu Zixu's body in Yiyi leather and threw it into the Qiantang River.

Later, the state of Wu was really destroyed by Goujian, the king of Yue. Fu Chai was ashamed to see Wu Zixu in the underworld, so he blindfolded his eyes with a white cloth before raising his sword and killing himself!

It can be said that the relationship between Bo Tong and Wu Zixu is very complicated.

In the early stage, the two are good teachers and helpful friends, golden partners, and share a common ambition (revenge against Chu).

In the later period, the two turned against each other, because Wu Zixu was dedicated to serving the country, but Bo Tong was selfish.

With conflicting ideas, how can they not conflict?

However, Qingji did not deny that Bo Tong was indeed talented, otherwise, he would not have been appointed by He Lu and Fu Chai, the heroes of a generation, and climbed all the way to the position of Dazai.

Bo Tong, son's surname, Bo's family, his ancestor was Bo Zong, the son of Duke Ao of the Jin State, and belonged to the Duke family of the Jin State.

It's a pity that back then, Bo Zong was stubborn, loyal to the country, dissatisfied with the fact that the Que family was too powerful, and was framed to death by San Que.

Bozhouli, the son of Bozong, fled to the state of Chu and served as a doctor of the state of Chu.

Bozhou Li was born as Quewan, and his son inherited his father's career and became a doctor of Chu. Later, Quewan was attacked and killed by Chu State Commander Yin Zichang (Nangwa).
"Bo Tong, what do you have to report?"

Qingji asked lightly.

He didn't have a preconceived impression that Bo Tong was a treacherous minister who was only good at sycophancy!
At least, the current Bo Tong is still a passionate young man who bears a bloody feud.

Like Wu Zixu, he wanted revenge on Chu!
Qingji can consider reusing such a boy.

"Your Majesty, I think that although your Majesty has expelled Ji Guang and entered the capital of Wu, he has not yet performed the ceremony of crowning and proclaiming himself King. He has the real status of a king but no name."

"The people of Wu know that there is a king in Wu, but the people of the world don't know. How can it be so?"

Bo Tong said loudly: "Therefore, I invite the king to choose an auspicious day, perform the ceremony of crowning, and publicize it to other countries, so as to rectify his name!"

The ceremony of crowning, the grand ceremony of proclaiming the king, and the celebration of the taboo will naturally be held.

This is not only a ceremony, but also a time for Qingji to truly set things right!
This will show that there is only one Wu King, one Wu Zi in the world, and it is he who celebrates Ji, not Ji Guang!

"good."

Qingji couldn't help nodding his head slightly, and said: "Your widow, I will schedule the ceremony of my crown two months later, so that I can make preparations and the envoys from various countries can come to participate in time."

"As for choosing an auspicious day, organizing the ceremony of the crown and other matters, the widow will leave it to Ji Zi to take care of it!"

"Ji Zi? This... Your Majesty, during Ji Zi's funeral, I'm afraid I won't be able to fully prepare for the grand ceremony of proclaiming the king."

Bo Tong's face was very hesitant.

Qingji knew exactly what was going on in his heart!
Qing Ji glanced at Bo Tong meaningfully, and said, "Since that's the case, Bo Tong, I will allow you to act as an excuse to assist Ji Zi in preparing for the coronation ceremony."

"Your servant will obey the king's orders!"

Bo Tong was overjoyed immediately and took the order.

He took the initiative to mention this matter, hoping that he could use the coronation ceremony, handle affairs swiftly and thoughtfully, win Qingji's favor, and get the power he dreamed of!
……

After leaving the court meeting, Qingji changed into his normal clothes again, and took an ox cart to Jizi Mansion.

Bullock carts, like horse-drawn carts, are a very common means of transportation!
Moreover, compared with horse-drawn carts, ox carts travel more smoothly and less bumpy.

Many high-ranking officials and dignitaries from various countries use bullock carts for travel.

Just because, like Wu, there are few horses produced locally, and the horses are expensive, and most of them are pulled to serve as war horses!

As a result, ox carts have naturally become an important means of transportation for people to travel.

But, only for short trips!
If you are on the road, the horse-drawn carriage is still a necessary means of transportation.

Although Qing Ji is now the king of Wu, the king of a country, he still doesn't want his travels to be too grandiose and attract attention.

Keep a low profile, it will be beneficial and harmless to the present celebration!
"Sell Leisi, 铚, Duyun plow and various farm tools! Don't miss it when you pass by!"

"Zheng Guolai's shoes are sold cheap!"

"Selling fish! All kinds of fresh big fish! Just caught this morning, still alive and kicking!"

"Let's take a look, take a look! Oranges, big fresh and sweet oranges! No sweet, no money!"

The ox cart passed by a market, Qingji couldn't help but lift the curtain on the cart, and looked up at the bustling scene outside.

In the huge market, people come and go, bustling, this kind of bustling scene is not at all like the city that just experienced a big battle yesterday!

However, it can also be said.

What is going on between Ge Yinqingji and Helu is a civil war, fighting in the same room!

Once the two decide the winner, the common people will naturally do what they should do without delay.

I saw that on the streets and alleys, the hawkers at the roadside stalls were shouting loudly to greet the passers-by.

Seeing this scene, Qingji couldn't help but feel relieved!
This war did not destroy the internal potential of Wu, and the Wu people were still as vigorous and vigorous as before.

 Regarding the title of the Wu State, it is the same as the Chu State and the Yue State, but the princes do not recognize it.Their real title is Viscount, Wu Ziguo!
