Rebirth of Wu Ba Spring and Autumn

Chapter 254
Night falls.

In the Jiaofang Palace, Qingji is waiting for his queen Ji Kou to come back.

He has already heard the news that Yun Chang is seriously ill and will die soon. As a daughter, Ji Kou rushed to visit her father, which is reasonable.

Therefore, Qingji did not blame Ji Kou.

Ever since Qingji dispatched his master to destroy Yue, the relationship with Ji Kou has gradually become estranged.

At the time of victory and return to the court, it is good to say that after all, Qingji did not completely destroy the Yue State, and still marked out a Juwu City as the new capital of the Yue State, and the land of Sanbari was also under the rule of the Yue State.

The only thing that was too much was that Yun Chang and Gou Jian were forced to serve as ministers in Wu.

After losing the battle, the State of Yue paid tribute to the State of Wu and ceded land for peace, which is reasonable.

However, in Ji Kou's view, Qingji really shouldn't have broken his word, deceived himself and Yunchang and his son, and then captured Juwucheng by surprise and completely wiped out Yueguo!

This made Ji Kou a little unacceptable, so he has been sulking for several days, and he is unwilling to talk to Qingji.

Now Yunchang can't afford to be ill, which makes Qingji feel a little ashamed of Ji Kou.

Because Yunchang became seriously ill suddenly, it was a heart disease caused by Wu Jun's destruction of Yue.

However, Qingji did not regret that he had done such an unkind thing.

In the world of great contention, whoever has blood must have the heart of contention!

The strong will be strong, and the weak will perish.

The powerful Wu State annexed the weak Yue State, which abounded in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods, and it was very common.

If Qingji hadn't taken care of Ji Kou's feelings, maybe he would have sent someone to kill Yunchang, Goujian and his son on the way, to make it look like they were murdered by thieves.

Or, Qingji could instruct others to poison the meals of Yunchang, Goujian and his son, publicizing to the outside world that they could not bear the humiliation of subjugation and committed suicide.

All in all, Qingji has countless ways to kill Yunchang and Goujian without being criticized by the world.

Even if people in the world know that Qingji did it, so what?

Win or lose!

Under the halo of the winner, who would go into the fate of the loser?

However, there is no need for Qingji to do that, after all, the two of them are no longer a big threat to him, and the Yue Kingdom will also disappear from everyone.

"Queen, you are back."

After waiting for a long time until late at night, Qingji saw the tired Ji Kou return to Jiaofang Hall.

"Ah."

Ji Kou remained lukewarm towards Qingji, walked to the side and sat down on his own, poured a bowl of water to drink.

"The matter of the Marquis of Yue is already known to the widow. Queen, you are a sensible person, and you should know that it is imperative for Wu to destroy Yue. It's my own responsibility."

"Your Majesty, there is no need to say too much. Your concubine is aware of your difficulties, but after all, the Yue Kingdom is the concubine's mother country, and Marquis Yue is the concubine's father. How can the concubine not feel sad?"

Ji Kou twitched Qiong's nose, a little weeping, and said aggrievedly.

Seeing this, Qingji sighed, then stepped forward and embraced Ji Kou's delicate body, hugged him into his arms, and said, "Queen, I know the grievances in your heart."

"If the widow is the loser, the queen will cry for the widow, and even die for the widow."

"Now the Marquis of Yue can't afford to be ill, which is not what the widow wants."

Qing Ji can only comfort Ji Kou like this!

Ji Kou, who was caught in the middle of the war between Wu and Yue, must have felt very uncomfortable.

One is his father, the other is his husband, what can Ji Kouru do?

With Qingji's ability and Wu's national power, Ji Kou knew that Yue would be destroyed by Wu one day, but she didn't expect this day to come so soon!

What made it even more difficult for Ji Kou to accept was that his father, Yun Chang, became seriously ill in a fit of rage, to the point where there was no cure.

In fact, Qingji never thought that Yunchang's psychological endurance would be so "fragile".

Qing Ji vaguely remembered that Yun Chang in history probably died in 496 BC.

Now it is 509 BC, that is to say, because of the fall of the Yue Kingdom, Yun Chang, who became the king of the subjugated country, lost [-] years of his life!

Time has changed and the world has changed to this point, which is really embarrassing.

As Yunchang's "good son-in-law", Qingji does not wish for his father-in-law's early death and early rebirth, but it is acceptable to put him under house arrest until his death.

Ji Kou's tears have already soaked Qingji's skirt.

After a long time, Ji Kou, who was tearful and crying until pear blossoms rained down, raised his head, and said to Qing Ji choked with sobs, "Your Majesty, the doctor said that my concubine's father will die soon, at most half a year, and he will pass away."

"He didn't deserve such bad luck."

Hearing this, Qingji pretended to be surprised, and asked: "Is Yuehou's body really that bad?"

"What the concubine said is true. Your Majesty, the concubine heard that my father was seriously ill today, and felt sad for a moment. The father asked the concubine to bring Heng'er and Zhang'er to reminisce about the old days."

"At that time, the concubine saw that his father's complexion turned pale, Yintang turned black, and he was unable to get up. With such symptoms, isn't it a terminal illness?"

According to Ji Kou, Yun Chang is indeed half dead.

It is worth mentioning that the Heng and Zhang mentioned by Ji Kou are both the sons born to her and Qing Ji.

At this time, Qingji had nine sons and four daughters.

Regardless of the daughter, there is Wu Hong, the eldest son of the concubine, who was born like a dream.

The second son, Wu Xi, was born to Zhu Ji.

The eldest son (third son) Wu Heng, born to Ji Kou.

The fourth son, Wu Qi, was born to Little Fox.

The fifth son, Wu Fa, was born to a little raccoon.

The sixth son, Wu Bang, was born to Sun Li.

The seventh son, Wu You, was born to Zhu Ji.

The eighth son, Wu Zhang, was born to Ji Kou.

The nine sons, Wu Xun, were born to Teng Yu.

Judging from these nine sons, Qing Ji, who adheres to the principle of equal exposure to rain and dew, obviously loves Ji Kou and Zhu Ji more.

Of course, it turns out that Qingji's children are not limited to these. After all, the medical and health conditions in this era are extremely backward, and there are too many cases of premature deaths of babies.

Qingji had thirteen sons and daughters, and five of them died during the period!
This has been extremely lucky.

Ming Guangzong Zhu Changluo of the later generations was even more miserable. Seven of his ten daughters died young.

Of the seven sons, five died young, and only Zhu Youxiao and Zhu Youjian were left as brothers and sisters, and they both died short-lived.

His son Zhu Youxiao, the carpenter emperor, was also miserable. Without exception, his three sons and three daughters all died young!
Therefore, with such backward medical and health standards in ancient times, it may not be safe for children to survive their first birthday.

Like Zhu Biao's son Zhu Xiongying, he can die at the age of eight!

It is conceivable that a child may not be able to withstand any accident and a little cold!

Qingji can survive so many second daughters, Amitabha should have been long ago, thank God.

It is worth mentioning that Teng Yu, the original lamp-carrying female official, has been conferred the honor of celebrating her death and canonized as a woman of the world.

It's no wonder Qingji was tempted, it's because Teng Yu is very moist and looks more and more attractive.

Fortunately, although Teng Yu is He Lu's daughter, she is only an adopted daughter, not related to Qing Ji by blood.

So Qing Ji accepted Teng Yu without any psychological pressure.
