Rebirth of Wu Ba Spring and Autumn

Chapter 603
After destroying Chu State, what will be the next step of Wu State?

Qingji fell into deep thought.

Wu's national policy has been set since the beginning of Qingji's accession to the throne, and has never been changed.

Destroying Yue, swallowing Chu, and unifying the south, Wu has basically achieved this.

According to the national policy set by Sun Wu and other ministers at the beginning of Qingji, after unifying the south, they should plan to go north to fight for hegemony, link Song, Lu, Wei and other countries, unite the people of the Central Plains, and subdue Qi and Jin.

Jiuhe princes, a kuang world.

This is Qingji's long-cherished wish!
Just, is that all?
The great competition in the world is intensifying.

The state of Jin fell into civil war, and the states of Qi, Zheng, and Emperor Zhou were all engaged in affairs in the Central Plains, trying to take advantage of the fire and rob the people of Jin. This was a good opportunity for Qingji and Wu.

And once Wu State tried to enter the Central Plains, including Qi State and Jin State, it would definitely not agree.

The princes of the Central Plains will also regard the Wu people as "barbarians" and attack them.

How can it be?

Qingji turned his gaze to the west of Yingdu, which is Bashu, which was later called "Land of Abundance".

If the land of Bashu is used as the big granary of Wu, why not?
But, is Wu Guo really capable of doing this?

Hard!

Whether it is going north or going west, it is not easy for Wu.

However, Qing Ji would not be reconciled if he did not take advantage of this opportunity to expand his achievements.

The point is that it would be futile if you won those territories but couldn't defend them?
"Father! Father!"

Just when Qingji was in a trance, suddenly there was a burst of excited shouts in the distance.

Qingji looked around and saw that his eldest son, Wu Heng, had jumped off the military chariot and jogged towards him cheerfully.

"Heng'er?"

Seeing Young Master Heng come back alive, Qing Ji was also extremely happy, and stepped forward quickly.

"My son, please see my father!"

"Okay! Come on, get up, let the widow take a good look."

Qingji lifted Young Master Heng up, looked around, and couldn't help nodding his head slightly.

Wu Heng was finally lucky, his body was covered with dried blood, and his body smelled bloody, but luckily it was the blood of the enemy.

After some bloody battles, Young Master Heng also completed his transformation, allowing many people to see his bravery and combat skills.

This subclass me!

Qing Ji was also extremely satisfied with Young Master Heng's performance.

After the Battle of Yingdu, Qingji sent many soldiers to search for the figures of Gongzi Hong and Gongzi Heng, but found nothing...

However, Qingji always believes that auspicious people have their own appearance!
"Just come back, just come back."

Qing Ji patted Young Master Heng's shoulder very relievedly and said.

At this time, Bo Tong, who was following behind, stepped forward with a smile, bowed to Qing Ji and said, "Your Majesty, Mr. Heng has done a lot of hard work this time."

"Not only did he kill over a hundred enemies in battle, but he also captured Duke Chu alive!"

"really?"

"Exactly!"

Upon hearing this, Qingji couldn't help but look at Young Master Heng with admiration, and laughed loudly: "Hahahaha! Good! Good!"

"As expected of the widow's son! I used to be known as the 'Number One Warrior of the Wu Kingdom'. The name of bravery is the best in the world. I see, Heng'er, you are not bad!"

"Father is absurd."

Young Master Heng hurriedly said with a humble expression: "Father, in fact, the Duke of Chu was not captured by the minister alone, but was captured alive by the elder brother and the minister together!"

"good."

Seeing that Young Master Heng did not take the credit for himself, Qingji also praised him for being so righteous.

"Where is your brother?"

"My elder brother was accidentally injured by an arrow, but fortunately he was treated in time, and he is no longer seriously injured."

"..."

Qingji nodded, and then he was relieved.

Among the princes of the Wu Kingdom, Qingji is the most optimistic about the eldest son Wu Hong and the eldest son Wu Heng.

If one of them died on the battlefield, Qingji would be very sad.

Fortunately, there was no danger.

Not only did they return safely, but they also captured Chu Gong Xiong Zhen alive together, making great contributions to Wu!

……

After mourning Shen Baoxu, Qingji returned to Yingdu and summoned Xiong Zhen in the original Chu Palace.

In the past, Xiong Zhen was the owner of this palace, but now things are different, mountains are long and rivers are wide, and Qingji has entered the capital of Ying.

Everyone here, every plant and every tree, will let Qingji live and die...

Qing Ji, who hadn't seen him for many years and had been away for a long time, couldn't help but sigh in his heart when he saw Xiong Zhen again.

In terms of age, Xiong Zhen would be nearly ten years younger than Xiao Qingji, but now Xiong Zhen, with gray temples and a sad face, looks like a middle-aged man.

When outsiders see it, how would they think that Xiong Zhen is younger than Qingji?
"King Wu, I don't know how you plan to deal with the widow?"

Xiong Zhen sat across from Qingji, looking like a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water.

If he wants to kill or cut, Xiong Zhen already listens to him.

After all, his current life is already in Qingji's hands.

It's just that since ancient times, there has been no saying that the king of a country should be executed because of the victory or defeat of a war.

As long as Xiong Zhen doesn't commit suicide, Qingji can't just kill Xiong Zhen casually.

"Chugong, we are old friends."

Qingji laughed lightly and said, "Your widow should be reduced to 'Jingchuhou', a thousand households in Longchuan County, Nanhai County, where there are [-] households, hereditary, I don't know what you want?"

This is also a feudal lord, a food-giving city, or the kind of hereditary replacement. Qingji is regarded as an "alternative" for the state of Chu, and the ancestral temple is kept.

In this matter, Xiong Zhen should thank Qingji for not killing him, and for keeping the ancestral temple.

It is a tradition to destroy a country without extinction, and Qingji is not willing to change it.

Although, according to the past tradition, Qingji should give Xiong Zhen a fief to offer sacrifices to the ancestral temple of Chu State.

But in Wu State, fiefdoms have basically been banned, even Xiong Zhen, a subjugated king with a special status, can no longer own it.

Longchuan County is a county located in the south of the Five Ridges.

In the final analysis, Xiong Zhen's food city of one thousand households can only be taken from a distance, and Qingji will not let him leave under his nose.

Why did Qingji do this?

Because the bottom line is often broken again and again.

The three views can also be refreshed again and again.

The emperors of the later generations, when they treated the emperors of the previous dynasty, or the kings of other countries, they went too far.

Even, after more than 1000 years, Liu Jinu once again refreshed the three views of the world, and directly killed the king after usurping the throne...

After Liu Yu usurped the throne in the late Eastern Jin Dynasty, why didn't he treat Cao Huan kindly like Sima Yan, but killed Sima's family?
In fact, it was the bane that was bought at the time of Sima Zhao.

The fine tradition of killing the emperor was still started by the Sima family.

Cao Mao's youthful heart, unwilling to give up the country that Cao Cao had conquered, summoned Wang Shen, Shang Shu Wang Jing, and Sanqi Chang Shi Wang Ye to discuss:

Sima Zhao's heart is known to passers-by.I can't just sit back and be humiliated, I should discuss it with Qing and others today.

Wang Jing and others told Sima Zhao the emperor's plan as soon as they left the palace.

Sima Zhao smiled slightly, and sent his confidant Jia Chong to deal with the matter.

At that time, Cao Mao raised his troops and fought with Jia Chong and Cheng Ji's troops.

As the saying goes, wealth and wealth are sought in danger, under Jia Chong's flickering, Cheng Ji insisted on killing the emperor Cao Mao in the street.

Cao Mao's death caused an uproar in the state of Wei. The ministers all demanded that the chief culprit, Jia Chong, be executed, but Sima Zhao didn't give up. He just killed Qing Chengji.

Sima Zhao probably did not expect that killing the emperor would have far-reaching consequences...
