Rebirth of Wu Ba Spring and Autumn

Chapter 90

Regarding how to dispose of Helu's corpse, Ji Zha is the person who has the most say besides Qingji.

Gain Ji Zha's second son and grandson were all forced to death by He Lu, and Ji Zha's daughter-in-law also committed suicide indirectly because of He Lu!
The lives of the four members of the family are inseparable from He Lu.

Under such bloody enmity, how could Ji Zha stay out of it?

"Your Majesty, the old ministers are all judged by the King, and there is no objection!"

But, after all, Ji Zha didn't make his own choice and let it go.

Because in the eyes of a virtuous gentleman like Ji Zha, He Lu is dead, and it should be settled. At this time, it will not be of much benefit to vent his anger on He Lu's corpse, but it may damage his reputation.

Not worth the candle!

The moral standards Ji Zha abides by never allow him to insult other people's corpses to vent his personal anger.

Of course, Ji Zha will unconditionally obey any decision made by Qingji.

"it is good!"

Qing Ji nodded slightly and said, "Then, according to Bo Tong's advice, put Ji Guang's head in front of the ancestor's spirit for three days, and then sacrifice it in the Taimiao to pray to the ancestors."

"His body was hung at the west gate of the capital city of Wu, and it was not allowed to be taken down for burial without an edict from the widow!"

"Your Majesty Yingming!"

After the Qing Ji decision was made, all the ministers and officials did not have any objections.

After the death of others, it does not seem very kind to insult their corpses.

However, this is actually not contrary to the current atmosphere!

In this world of great strife, the atmosphere of treating enemies is quite cruel, and in the eyes of future generations, it may appear too weird and too barbaric.

For example, Zhao Wuxie later made Zhibo's skull into a wine vessel, which he used for drinking during the day and as a urinal at night.

For example, Wu Zixu in history, after he smashed Yingdu with his troops, he dug up the corpse of King Ping of Chu who had long been disfigured, and whipped the corpse...

This kind of behavior of venting hatred is sometimes very satisfying.

Of course, according to the moral standards of this era, they are still despised by the world!
"Second and third sons, according to the battle report from the front, Da Sima has already led an army to capture Shudi, but he is afraid that there will be chaos in Shu, and he will collude with the Chu army in Qianyi to attack our Wu division from both sides. Therefore, Da Sima asked the widow to send more reinforcements."

"Do the second and third sons think so?"

As soon as Qingji's words fell, all the officials couldn't help whispering to each other.

"Your Majesty, I don't think so."

The senior doctor Shenxi came out and said: "My Wu army has fought repeatedly, and the soldiers are exhausted. How can I support Shudi in an expedition? The king may as well tell Da Sima, please stick to Shudi. Presumably [-] soldiers will be able to ensure Shudi. There is no danger!"

"My minister agrees!"

"My lord, what the doctor said is absolutely true!"

All the officials stood up one after another and agreed with Shen Xi's proposition.

However, how could Qingji be ignorant of the situation and reason?
Wu Jun's [-] horses are indeed enough to defend comfortably.

But Qingji's strategic goal still has another challenge!
If Zhaoguan is not conquered, it will be difficult to celebrate the taboo!

Because Zhaoguan is like a nail, stuck in Wu Guo's forehead, if Zhaoguan is not pulled out, Qingji will feel really uncomfortable.

"This matter will be discussed later!"

In the end, Qingji did not make a ruling.

Because he knew in his heart that Wu Jun, who had gone through so many battles, would most likely be on the verge of collapse if he went on an expedition again!

People are not made of iron, nor are they machines, so how can they not get tired?
Wu Jun, after a long period of continuous fighting, has reached the limit.

If not, Sun Ping would not have reached out to Qingji for reinforcements!
……

After retiring from the court, Qingji changed into ordinary clothes again, and went to the prison by car to visit Wu Zixu.

At this time, Wu Zixu was sitting on the haystack in the prison, closing his eyes and resting his mind.

Even after encountering so many accidents, several dangerous situations, and becoming a prisoner, Wu Zixu was still not hit by it and became decadent.

With silver-white messy long hair, jet-black beard, resolute face full of vicissitudes, and broad shoulders, Wu Zixu is downcast, but he still has the demeanor that a nobleman should have!

He didn't seem to be worried at all that he was about to be decapitated.

"Open the door."

With a wave of Qingji's hand, the guards following him opened the cell door.

Wu Zixu, who was still meditating with his eyes closed, opened his eyes involuntarily when he heard this movement, and glanced at Qingji lightly.

It seemed that he had already guessed that Qingji might come to visit him in prison.

The guard behind him wanted to hand over a futon to let Qingji sit down, but the latter waved his hand and refused, and just sat on the dirty and damp haystack.

"Wu Yuan, I haven't seen you for a long time. How have you been?"

Qingji looked at Wu Zixu expressionlessly.

"Thanks to King Wu's blessing, the old man is now a prisoner of King Wu's rank. The head is still on the neck, how long will it be?"

Wu Zixu smiled faintly.

His life and death are already in Qingji's mind!
According to common sense, Wu Zixu would surely die.

However, in Wu Zixu's view, Qingji is not a person who can be judged by common sense at all!
The revenge of killing his father may not be unforgivable or unforgivable to Qingji.

"Wu Yuan, tell me, how should the widow deal with you?"

"It's nothing more than death."

Wu Zixu sighed and said: "King Wu, this old man is originally from Chu, a nobleman for generations, just because Chu Guoping Wang Xiongju listened to Fei Wuji's slander, killed my father and brother, and wiped out my whole family of Wu's family!"

"By luck, I was able to escape all the way to the Wu Kingdom, serving the former King Liao of Wu, and advising him. It's a pity that King Liao of Wu is not the Ming Jun and heroic leader that I dreamed of, and he can't trust me to be more important than this old man!"

"In this way, the old man may not be able to avenge the bloody feud with Chu State even if he spends his entire life in poverty."

Upon hearing this, Qingji couldn't help narrowing his eyes, and asked, "Is this why you recommended Zhuan Zhu to Ji Guang to assassinate my father?"

"Exactly!"

As soon as Wu Zixu talked about the hatred between Chu and Chu, he couldn't help burning with anger. He stared and said, "Anyone who dares to stop Wu Zixu from taking revenge on Chu is my enemy and I will kill him!"

"Although Wu Wangliao has no enmity with me, and he did not stop me from attacking Chu for revenge, but my lord Wu Guang has long had the heart of disobedience and the ambition to usurp the throne. The old man recommended Zhuanzhu to assassinate him, but he just followed the trend."

Qing Ji nodded slightly, he believed that what Wu Zixu said was from his own heart.

If He Lu had no idea about the throne, the instigation of others would be useless, and Wu Zixu's involvement in it would only have played a role in fueling the flames, and he was an accomplice!
In Wu Zixu's view, He Lu is more suitable for the king of Wu than King Liao of Wu.

Gaiyin Helu was a man with a deep city, and his majestic talent and strategy were far better than Wu Wangliao who was willing to slowly defend the land and open up the frontier.

Furthermore, Wu Zixu was not valued by King Liao of Wu, and he rarely trusted him.
