Chapter 267 Prince Ben Zheng Mi Bingyao

Chapter 267
Qu Jiang, who rushed to Pei County overnight, brought a shocking news to the Mo family.

When he arrived, everyone was busy with the construction plan of the canal next year. Except for Qin Huali, who was not in Pei County, who was going to Sanjin and others, the senior figures of the Mo family were basically present.

For Shi, this news was a sigh of relief, but for the rest it was a sigh of shock.

The king of Chu, Xiongdang, was assassinated!

King Xiongdang of Chu returned to Yingdu less than a month ago. He was shot and killed more than [-] soldiers by assassins in the street market.

The assassin self-destructs his face before death, making it unrecognizable.

Just before he died, he left a few words.

"The Mohists killed me, Sima, Zhiqi, and more than a hundred people were killed or injured. The king still treats the Mohist as a guest. He is really a relative who hates his family and alienates his relatives. He is not enough to be a king! I killed for Chu, not murder, Naiyi!"

After the man finished speaking, he destroyed his face and killed himself in the market with a horizontal sword.

Among the sons of King Chu, Wang Ziyi and Wang Ziding are eligible to inherit.

The Dukes of the Chu State were in chaos. From the time of the co-king, the succession disputes caused by the monarch's ascension to the throne have never stopped.

At that time, Zifan used the analogy of a rabbit walking in the market, and the later son Qiji Rebellion verified this.

It can be said that this incident was a serious lesson for the Chu people, and the subsequent annihilation of the country was all caused by this. However, Xiong Dang was in his prime, or because of the superstition of witchcraft, he did not designate an heir at all.

It is suspected that the prince was born to a daughter of Qi, and he is on good terms with the Tian family.

The prince must have been born to a daughter of Zheng, and it was precisely because the people of Zheng were close to Chu and attacked Han.

Both had certain aristocratic support.

However, Wang Ziyi is planning for the long-term, and most of the people who support him are some county officials and far officials.

Wang Ziding took advantage of the opportunity of the king of Chu going north to fight for hegemony, and asked his younger brother to go to Zheng Guo as an envoy, and he stayed in Yingdu to manage it.

No one knows who sent the assassin, but it is obvious that many nobles let this matter go, otherwise this kind of thing would not have happened.

It's just that it's normal for a monarch to be assassinated.

Not to mention the mysterious incident of Marquis Jin being robbed to death, Jun Qin was once forced to commit suicide by nobles.

The aristocrats have great power, and it is their housekeeping skill to conspire, and the two princes may not be so clean.

The death of the King of Chu was regarded as a political murder conspired by the nobles and acquiesced by the rest.

Wang Zisu used his business in Chudu to quickly gain enough support after his father's death, and was promoted by the nobles as King of Chu to ascend the throne.

Wang Ziding claimed that the assassin was sent by his brother, and got the support of some nobles, but at this time Chu Du was already under the control of his brother, so he had no choice but to flee.

The newly succeeded king of Chu knew that his younger brother had the right to inherit, and that he also had the support of many nobles, and even foreign forces, so he naturally decided to get rid of it quickly.

However, Prince Ding also had influence in the capital of Chu. Followed by many friends and scholars, he heavily bribed the gatekeepers and fled overnight.

On the day this incident happened, Qu Jiang went from Chudu to Peixian day and night to inform Juzi of the news.

For a moment, all the Mohists present were at a loss, only Shi knew in his heart that this was exactly what he was looking forward to, and it happened to be able to tell more truths.

If the country is still there, then the prince will flee and seize the throne with the help of the power of the Jin Dynasty, and he will not hesitate to split the Chu country and restore the country. Is this considered treason?

If the country is still there, King Xiong of Chu wants to change to benefit the people of Chu, but he is murdered, but the person who assassinated him can say that he is doing harm to Chu.

So, whose country is it?Whose Chu is Chu?

He had already begun to prepare various inflammatory speeches, but he still pretended to be shocked by the news.

Mozi, who was sitting at the top, heard the words, slowly closed his eyes, and sighed for a long time: "The Mi Binghui, stop!"

After telling the news, General Qu did not dare to look into Mozi's eyes, because they were full of exhaustion, helplessness, and even a trace of despair.

When he just arrived, Mozi was smiling and even joking with everyone, obviously full of confidence and fantasy about everything and the future.

Qin Huali has already gone to Wei and Han, and the people of Wei have also contacted the Mohists more, asking for gunpowder for the defense of the city and iron tools for the reform of farming, showing that they are willing to participate in this time the Mohist organization's military elimination meeting for the benefit of the world.

Regardless of life and death, everyone in the Mo family guarded Shangqiu and made a decisive assault, winning all of this.

It seems that the Central Plains will have at least 20 years of peace, and the world will no longer be disturbed by unjust wars within 20 years. Economical development, population doubling, farming revolution... everything looks so good.

And this shocking news came only for a moment, and all the hope in Mo Zi's old eyes was shattered.

Just like what he said with a sigh, Mi Binghui will... stop.

Because Shi once analyzed the reasons for the possible success of this time in front of the Mohists: the balance of power between Jin and Chu, the difficulty of attacking the city caused by the emergence of gunpowder weapons, the increase in food for the defenders caused by the improvement of planting technology, As long as there is no decisive victory in a field battle, the offensive and defensive side of both sides will benefit.

Moreover, coupled with the fact that the Mohists, the elite organization that is best at defending the city, obstructed it and used the prestige of piercing through the Chu army to intimidate them, it is true that the elimination of the army can be achieved under this balance of power.

It's just... Shi Ye made it very clear that this time the pawn removal will only be balanced, and if the balance is unbalanced, it will naturally be impossible to purge the pawns.

As for benefiting the world?As for righteous warfare and non-offensive?The king will not believe it.

How could Mozi not know the truth of all this?

Because I know, I despair.

Prince Ding fled to Zheng State, Zheng people must escort Prince Ding to Chu, how could San Jin miss this opportunity to weaken Chu State?
And as a bereaved dog, Wang Ziding, in order to sit on the throne, what worries does he have to join forces with the enemy Sanjin?Not to mention San Jin, even Yi Di, he would borrow troops immediately!

Everything in the Mi Binghui is based on the premise of balance and stability, and now this premise has been broken!

When Mozi sighed, he felt that his eyes were dark, and he wanted to say something but couldn't.

I am more than 50 years old this year, I have practiced righteousness for [-] years, and hundreds of disciples have died. What I want is to benefit the world, to order the world, and to love without attack.

The appropriate appearance brought a turning point. In just three years, he planned and acted, and won a chance to wipe out the soldiers in the Central Plains.

After Mozi came back from Shangqiu, he was in such a good mood that he could joke with his disciples, because he felt that the righteousness he had pursued for 50 years had finally been realized today.

The world, even if it is stable for 20 years, isn't it a good thing for the people of the world?

There was no sound in the hall, General Qu looked at Mo Zi, knelt down and said, "Young Master, I..."

He didn't know what to say, and he knew that he was doing the right thing, but he really couldn't bear to see Ju Zi's expression like this, he seemed to have aged a lot in an instant.

Mozi waved his hand, signaling Qu Jiang not to worry, suppressing the hope in his heart, squeezed out a smile, and said: "Once you get it and then lose it, the result is the same as never getting it...but...but..."

Two words in succession turned into a helpless wry smile in the end.

Everyone listened to so many general trends in the world, and heard him talk about many contradictions, and they also understood that what Mozi said was true.

Even though Qin Huali has already arrived in the Three Jin Dynasty, but Shi said before that the elimination of soldiers will have a lot to do with it, and many details must be discussed and cannot be missed.

This is recognized by everyone. It can be seen that at most they have just met Wei Hou at this time, and it is impossible to agree on the covenant of the Elimination Alliance.

Besides, even if the discussion is over, will San Jin give up this rare opportunity?

Mozi rubbed his bald head due to old age, nodded and said, "Shi, what do you think of this matter?"

Shi Shi got up and walked to the simple map of the world situation, glanced at it for a while, shook his head and said: "What you said is right. If the prince can enter Zheng alive, the world will be in chaos."

He looked at the crowd and suppressed the excitement in his heart, because Chu and Jin started a war over the issue of inheritance rights. Although the world was in chaos, the chaos would be concentrated in Zheng and Han, and Song, as the eastern front, would not be affected by the war.

The time needed for Pei County and Pengcheng was won by this great power war, and he couldn't be more excited.

He said again: "The prince must have supporters, and there are a lot of them, otherwise he would not be able to leave. If he has no supporters, if he thinks that he has no chance to win the throne after leaving, why should he run away?"

"You also know that most of the princes and royal families of Chu are important ministers. Among them, the position of Ling Yin, except for Peng Zhongshuang, is all royal families and princes."

"Princes and grandchildren account for the majority. If the prince does not flee, he can still be an important minister. Since he fled, he is obviously capable of seizing the throne."

"Zheng Bo is the uncle of Prince Ding, how can he not save him? How can the Three Jins stand by when the Zheng people fight against Chu? Wouldn't the three Jins send troops to support Prince Ding's family and county to rebel against Chu?"

"The balance will be broken, and it will no longer be possible to eliminate soldiers."

After finishing speaking, he bowed to Mozi and said: "I know that the dismissal of the soldiers is the dream of the master for 50 years. It's just that the matter has come to an end, and I hope that the brothers and comrades will give up their illusions and prepare another one." road."

"This road has already been tried in Shangqiu. Under the balance of chance and coincidence, it almost led to the elimination of soldiers in the Central Plains."

"Ruopei and Peng, there are three thousand ink masters, thirty thousand righteous teachers, the warlike kings of the world, do they dare to go to war so easily?"

When everyone nodded, Wu Mabo, one of the seven enlightened victims of the Mo family, suddenly spoke.

"Juzi, Shi's words make sense. It's just that I have something to say."

"If I kill a person to benefit the world, should I kill this person? If you can prove that killing this person will benefit the world, should you kill or not?"

"On the world's melee killing technique, my Mohist disciple is the best in the world. The giant once said that if it is not good for the world, then the thirteen swords will kill it. If it is so suitable, can't that person be killed?"

Everyone understood Wu Mabo's intention, which was to send assassins to assassinate Wang Ziding before Wang Ziding went to Zheng.

Once the prince who has the right to declare is doomed, it seems that the alliance of eliminating soldiers can persist, which will be of great benefit to the world.

Shi Moran, but Gao Sunzi said: "This person is innocent. Why kill him?"
