Rebirth of Wu Ba Spring and Autumn

Chapter 268 Establishing an Overlord Image
Prior to this, Qingji had sent two of his uncles, sons Jianyu and Zhuyong, to serve as the senior officials of Zhongwu and Xu Erguo, respectively, to take charge of their state affairs.

There are another [-] sharp soldiers of the Wu army stationed on the edge of the capitals of Xu State and Zhongwu State, under the banner of protecting their countries, and even the daily military expenses of the Wu Army are all borne by the countries where they are located!
How cruel is this?

It is conceivable that after a few years, the military and political power of Zhongwu and Xu will be in the hands of Qingji, and it is not a matter of Qingji's words to kill and kill.
Zhongwu State and Xu State will actually become Wu State's affiliated states, existing only in name only.

In this regard, how could Xu Junying, Zhang Yu and Zhong Wujun not know?
It's just that they were forced by Wu's strength, so they dared not speak out.

The two could only pray secretly, the Wu army failed to attack Chu, the national power declined, and then lost control of their country!

What made Xu Jun Ying Zhang Yu and Zhong Wu Jun most criticized was that Wu Guo was able to mobilize more soldiers and horses to attack Chu at every turn, but still had to recruit the few troops of the two countries!
Isn't this intentional for the soldiers of Xu Guo and Zhong Wu Guo to serve as cannon fodder for the Wu-Chu war?

Or, let Xu and Zhongwu send troops to help, Qingji itself intends to lose the main force of the two countries, so as to take the power of Zhang Yu and Zhongwu as soon as possible, and even completely destroy Xu and Zhongwu.

"Mr. Xu, Mr. Zhongwu, are you willing to send troops to help Wu Guo conquer Chu?"

Qingji asked again, his tone a bit impatient and chilly.

Xu Jun Ying Zhang Yu and Zhong Wujun were terrified and terrified.

"The widow... the widow is willing to help King Wu defeat Chu!"

"The widow is the same."

In desperation, the two monarchs could only agree.

Because the current Qingji is really like a lion about to go into a rage, full of pressure.

They were afraid that if they didn't agree to Qing Ji, they wouldn't even be able to see the sun the next day!

"Hahahaha! Good! Come on, both of you, have a full drink with me!"

After getting a satisfactory answer, Qing Ji was in a very happy mood, and his face turned as if the clouds had turned to sunny. He raised the wine cup, covered his face with his sleeve, and drank it down in one gulp.

Regarding this, Mr. Xu Ying, Zhang Yu and Mr. Zhong Wu could only smile bitterly, and then had a full drink.

In fact, the reason why Qingji pulled Xu Guo and Zhong Wuguo together to attack Chu had three main purposes.

One is to take advantage of the alliance of Wu, Xu, and Zhongwu to conquer Chu and establish Qingji's own "hegemony" image.

Second, in order to weaken the national power of Xu and Zhongwu, force them to rely more on Wu, and lay the foundation for Wu to annex the two countries as soon as possible.

Thirdly, the state of Wu really needs some cannon fodder to attack cities, or occupy some major cities, maintain law and order, etc.

Just when Qingji was having a banquet with Yingzhangyu and Zhongwujun, and had a "happy conversation", a particularly exquisite carriage drove under Sifangtai.

"Uncle!"

Before the person arrives, the sound arrives first.

When everyone looked up, they saw a little girl in gorgeous clothes, with a ball head tied, and carved with jade, had already got off the carriage, and was running towards Qingji as if flying.

"Yiguang, slow down, don't fall."

Qingji smiled slightly, and immediately opened his arms, hugged Yiguang, and sat down together.

As a king, the heights are too cold!
As the king of Wu, Qing Ji, as the power in his hands grew, he gradually drifted away from the people around him.

Many people are in awe of Qing Ji, even Queen Ji Kou is sometimes afraid of Qing Ji, and the rest of the courtiers, sons and daughters, and concubines are even more respectful and far away from Qing Ji.

This is neither a good thing nor a bad thing.

As the saying goes, if you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight.

Qing Ji enjoyed the supreme power, so naturally he had to pay the price for it.

By his side, only Xiao Yiguang can get along with Qingji freely, bringing rare joy to Qingji in his spare time.

This time, it was Xiao Yiguang who pestered Qingji to follow him on a tour of Xindu.

Qingji thought it would be harmless, so he took Xiao Yiguang with him.

After all, Qingji didn't want the high-walled courtyard of the harem to trap the "canary" Yiguang like a cage.

"Uncle, just now Yiguang went to see Dajiang!"

"Dajiang? What's so good about Dajiang?"

"Hasn't Yi Guang never seen the world? The river is so wide that you can't see the end at a glance, and there are waves everywhere. It may be difficult for a bamboo raft to cross this river!"

"That is."

Yi Guang opened his innocent eyes again, pointed at the corners of his lips, and said suddenly: "Uncle, when Yi Guang passed by Xindu just now, he saw many uncles building houses. In this cold day, they I was sweating profusely, working so hard..."

The "uncle" that Yiguang said was naturally the labor labor conscripted by Qingji to build the new capital here.

Qingji chuckled and said, "Yiguang, you don't have to pity them."

"There is something to be gained from hard work. They will definitely gain something from their hard work, just like when your father went fishing and hunting, and your mother raised silkworms and weaved clothes at home."

"It's all about making money and supporting the family."

Hearing this, Yi Guang nodded half-understood, and asked like a curious baby: "Uncle, will Yi Guang also earn money to support his family from now on?"

"Hahahaha, the widow is raising Yiguang, so why do you need to earn money?"

Qingji rubbed Yiguang's little head.

The well-behaved and sensible Yi Guang even peeled an orange and fed it to Qing Ji.

Seeing this, Xu Junying, Zhang Yu and Zhong Wujun sitting on one side couldn't help but twitch their mouths, feeling very contemptuous in their hearts.

According to the rumors, isn't Wu Wang Qingji a good wife?

Why is there a four or five-year-old girl with him?
Could it be that the rumors are wrong, Qingji is actually a mutant with a tong fetish?

At this moment, Ting Wei Wu Zixu came out and said: "My lord, the new capital is about to be completed, but there is no name for the city. Why don't your lord take this opportunity to name the new capital?"

"good."

Qing Ji nodded slightly, expressing his agreement.

After finally building a capital city, the name should not be too casual!

"The second and third sons may wish to express their own opinions. Think about it, what should be the name of this new capital of my country of Wu?"

Hearing this, everyone, including Xu Junying, Zhang Yu and Zhong Wujun, lowered their heads and began to think.

Wu Zixu first said: "Your Majesty, I think that the name of the new capital should be "Jiang" because it is close to the great river, but today the world is chaotic, how peaceful is it? Therefore, how about taking Jiangning as the name of the new capital?"

Upon hearing this, Qingji smiled noncommittally.

"Your Majesty, Jiang Ning is indeed a good name."

Right Prime Minister Ji Ran smiled and said: "Of course, I think that the new capital can still be named Wudu, or Jianye. Those who build a business will build meritorious deeds!"

"Your Majesty came to the Kingdom of Wu and established his capital here. He will definitely create a great achievement, so it is good to use Jianye as the name!"

Everyone present nodded in agreement.

Whether it is Jiangning or Jianye, they are all in line with the current situation of Wu State, or the layout of the new capital.
