Rebirth of Wu Ba Spring and Autumn

The next day, in Zide Hall, Qingji was speechless looking at the bamboo slips piled up like a hill.

These bamboo slips are all memorials for the impeachment of Wu Zixu by the officials.

Including Ji Zha, Kong Qiu, Fan Li, Ji Ran and others, all without exception, believed that Wu Zixu had already had the heart to rebel against Wu and stand on his own.

They all advised Qingji to recall Wu Zixu to Jinling and dismiss him for investigation.

This is understandable.

After all, even Qingji couldn't help but feel suspicious before, thinking that Wu Zixu would betray him and Wu Zili.

The people of the country already knew about this matter, and they were very dissatisfied. Wu Zixu is now a leader of the army, and has contacts with Jin and Chu people, and even his wife and children have fled.

There are various signs that Wu Zixu has a heart of disobedience.

And precisely at this time, Qingji should choose to trust Wu Zixu.

He can't do things that make loved ones hurt and enemies happy.

"Glue slippery, put all these bamboo slips into the box."

"promise!"

After ordering Jiao Hua to do things, Qingji turned his attention to Fan Li, Kong Qiu, Ji Ran and other officials, and said slowly: "Second and third sons, I have decided to take a trip to Xinzheng."

"Your Majesty! No!"

Zhi Su Nei Shi frowned and said: "Wu Zixu has turned his back on him now, and I'm afraid it will be bad for His Majesty! Why did Your Majesty put himself in danger?"

"Exactly!"

Dazai Jiran said seriously: "Your Majesty, even if you want to go to Xinzheng, you should bring a large army with you, just in case of accidents."

Qing Ji slightly nodded and said: "I will take the Huben Army and the Habayashi Army with me."

"..."

Knowing that Qingji had made adequate preparations, the ministers were finally relieved.

The Habayashi Army and the Huben Army are Qingji's former guards.

After some expansion, the two elite soldiers added up to [-] people.

They are well-equipped and have fought for the rest of their lives. Almost all of them can defeat ten with one.

With the protection of the Huben Army and the Habayashi Army, Qingji's safety is not a problem.

Don't look at Qingji's trust in Wu Zixu, but he has to think about his own safety.

……

The capital of Chu State, Chu Palace.

Knowing the news from Jinling, Xiong Zhen, king of Chu, quickly summoned Zixi and Shen Zhuliang to the palace, and sat with them at the table in his own palace that looked like a woodshed.

"I have already succeeded. He is taking Wu Zixu's wife and children hostage and rushing to Xinzheng..."

Xiong Zhen smiled sadly and said: "Ling Yin, you deserve to be able to come up with such a scheme."

"For Qingji and Wu Zixu, this is an unsolvable situation!"

Hearing this, Shen Zhuliang shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, you can't be too happy if things haven't come to fruition."

"It makes Yin worry too much."

Xiong Zhen sneered and said, "Wu Zixu sent troops to attack Zheng without authorization, which is a big mistake."

"Right now, Wu Zixu is impeaching Wu Zixu, and even his wife and children have fled overnight."

"Let me ask, how could Wu Wang Qingji still accommodate Wu Zixu?"

Hearing this, Shen Zhuliang just nodded slightly and did not speak.

After all, Shen Zhuliang felt ashamed for coming up with such a vicious strategy.

But for the great cause of Chu State, to overthrow Wu State, to separate Qingji and Wu Zixu, Shen Zhuliang would do anything! …

Zixi who was sitting on the side said slowly: "Your Majesty, I have already contacted Shi Qi and Zhao Yang from the Jin Kingdom. They are all willing to help Wu Zixu succeed."

"good."

Xiong Zhen nodded, his face was very excited.

Shen Zhuliang's game this time is really wonderful.

The three countries of Wu, Chu and Jin all participated in it.

Xiong Zhen didn't believe it, Qingji wasn't taken in this time, and Wu Zixu wasn't taken in either!

"My lord, if you are Qingji, what should you do at this time?"

Shen Zhuliang asked curiously.

"This……"

Xiong Zhen frowned, thought for a while, and then said: "Think about it differently, if the widow is celebrating a taboo, he must send someone to recall Wu Zixu back to Jinling, or simply give him a sword or a bottle of poisoned wine, and ask him to commit suicide .”

"good."

Shen Zhuliang was deeply convinced.

Because this is what a normal monarch does!
If Wu Zixu really had objections, it would only be counterproductive for Qingji to do so in the end.

"Ling Yin, how do you think Wu Zixu should respond?"

"There are only two paths before Wu Zixu. Either raise troops against Wu, or sit and wait for death."

Shen Zhuliang said meaningfully: "Now, Wu Zixu has almost established his reputation as a rebel, and his reputation is formidable."

"If Wu Zixu doesn't rebel, he can only be sentenced to death in the end."

"With the backing of Chu State and Jin State, and Wu Zixu's own tens of thousands of troops, he has the strength to stand on his own and compete with Wu State in a short time."

"However, I think Wu Zixu might choose the latter."

When Xiong Zhen heard the words, he couldn't help frowning and asked, "Why do you see that?"

"Your Majesty, King Wu Qingji's kindness to Wu Zixu is as great as a mountain. If he even betrayed King Wu, he would be worse than a dog."

Shen Zhuliang smiled wryly and said: "Furthermore, Wu Zixu is stubborn and too upright. It is absolutely impossible for him to act against his master and stand on his own."

"uncertain."

Xiong Zhen snorted and said, "If Wu Zixu doesn't rebel, he can only die."

"Qingji will never let him go!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Zhuliang just shook his head and said, "My lord, there is nothing impossible in the world."

"Wu Yuan's character is violent and loyal. When he realizes that he has made a big mistake, he may not have to celebrate his death. He will draw his sword and kill himself in shame and anger."

Xiong Zhen narrowed his eyes and said, "This is also a good ending."

"Hmph, no matter what, this time, even if it doesn't cause Wu Zixu to become self-reliant and the country of Wu to split, I will let Wu Zixu die to get rid of this evil!"

For Wu Zixu, Xiong Zhen can be said to hate him to the bone.

Even though he was from Chu, he helped the state of Wu and attacked his mother country, almost destroying the state of Chu.

How can this make Xiong Zhen not hate Wu Zixu?
……

The capital of Zheng State, Xinzheng.

At this time, Xinzheng City had been conquered by Wu Zixu's army.

Zheng Boji's group had already escaped from the capital, all the way north, probably to the territory of the state of Jin to live on.

Wu Zixu then led the troops into Xinzheng City, and issued a notice to calm the people, ordering the army to station outside the city.

For the subjects of the state of Zheng, Wu Zixu did not commit any crimes, acting like a master of the king.

In order to avoid suspicion, Wu Zixu did not dare to live in the Forbidden Palace of Zheng State, but ordered his soldiers to guard the gates everywhere, allowing them to enter and exit strictly.

Wu Zixu himself lived in the camp.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

When Wu Zixu was taking a nap in his sleeping tent, he suddenly heard the muffled and murderous sound of war drums outside.

This is the sound of war drums summoning soldiers.

"what happened?"

Wu Zixu was very puzzled.

He didn't order drums to gather troops at all. Who was passing the military order falsely?

"Take it!"

When Wu Zixu was feeling very confused, there was a sudden loud noise outside the tent.
