Wei Wuhou

Chapter 236

The Chen Guo ministers, whose hearts were in their throats, breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that Ji Jue had finally relented.

Wei Wuji's murderous look just now really scared them a lot.

To be honest, even if Wei Wuji really slaughtered them here, these ministers couldn't guarantee that the Zhou family and the four major congresses would pay them with Wei Wuji's life.

The lives of these "indifferent people" are insignificant compared with the interests of the nations.

Under the leadership of Ji Jue, the ministers also walked out in desperation.

Ji Jue knew that he had escaped Wei Wuji's oppression at this time, but he could not escape his father's accusation, and the crown prince might not be able to keep.

Seeing all the Chen Guo people evacuate away, Qu Weidao really felt that the world had changed.

After working with Wei Wuji for so long, he realized that the last thing he needed to worry about was the lack of excitement in his life.

But today, they played even bigger games. At the feet of the emperor, they dared to attack other countries' envoys and drove them out of the embassy.

"Young master, is...is it really going to happen? The Son of Heaven..." Qu Weidao still couldn't help asking.

Although Wei Guo's face has been saved, where is the emperor's face?
Wei Wuji looked calm, and said slowly: "The Son of Heaven has been out of power for a long time, so it's not worth mentioning. Standing opposite us are only the four kingdoms of Chu, Wu, Qi and Qin. As long as they don't hurt their interests, are they really going to stand up for Chen Guo?"

Qu Weidao nodded, although the truth is so, but there is always a fear of accidents in everything.

But at this time, Wei Wuji's voice turned cold and said: "Also, we should also wake up the emperor in the palace, who is in charge of this world!"

Hearing these words, Qu Weidao trembled, the malevolent aura shown by this young man was really hard to get close to.

At this time, Wei Wuji took a few steps forward, came under the pillar just now, and took down the sword that was just thrown out.

Then he took the sword to the previous soldier, and put it back into the sheath for others, making people flattered.

"Thank you, my lord!" The soldier bowed and bowed.

Wei Wuji smiled, and then told Si Xia: "Okay, hurry up and tidy up the place, we will stay here!"

The casual look now is completely different from before.

…………

On January 27 of the ninth year of Zhou Wangzhao.

It was already three days after Wei envoy entered Shangluo, ordinary people had no idea what major events had happened three days ago.

However, the royal family who originally responded to this kept silent as everyone expected. Even the royal family didn't think it was a thing, so it was normal for others not to respond.

But at this moment in the palace, someone was erupting with thunderous anger.

In this huge palace, a man wearing a twelve-barreled head threw a piece of exquisite jade on the ground.

The servant below bowed to the ground, trembling, for fear of making the slightest noise and being beheaded by the irritable Majesty.

"Chu and Wu countries were just small border states at the beginning. If it weren't for the royal family's repeated seals, how would they be as prosperous as they are today?" Emperor Ji Zhao slapped the table and said.

His voice was full of anger, and he really looked like a madman, which was very different from the calm and reserved expression he had shown in the past.

"The people of Wei are rampant and have repeatedly caused chaos... At this moment, they don't share my worries, but contribute to the court, and let the people of Wei do whatever they want..."

The emperor above is scolding, but the eunuchs below are eager to find a place to get in. This kind of thing has been heard a lot, and for them, death is not far away.

But even so, the eunuchs below couldn't help but secretly contemptuously, playing their temper here, but they didn't dare to get angry at the Wei people themselves, this emperor is nothing but a strong man.

What did he say about the four kingdoms he sealed, the current status of the four principalities, which one did not come from the sword in his hand.

Just when the emperor was angry, an eunuch crawled in tremblingly outside, and then said in the most humble voice: "Your Majesty... Uncle Chen, please see me!"

"He?" The emperor stopped cursing and tried his best to calm himself down.

For this distant relative, Ji Zhao felt a little bit of resentment, why they were so useless and kicked out of the building.

But now, as the Son of Heaven, he had to meet again. Among all the princes he visited, this Uncle Chen was undoubtedly the most obedient one.

Although this obedience is based on his reliance on himself, the emperor needs this kind of behavior of the princes' submission to increase the limited authority of the Zhou family.

"Let him in!" Ji Zhao said to the eunuch after he calmed down.

This relieved the eunuchs serving in the hall, the previous feeling of walking on thin ice was really uncomfortable.

After a while, the door of the main hall was opened, and under the guidance of the servants, a man with graying temples was brought in.

As soon as he entered the hall, the man knelt down and said, "Chen Wei pays homage to Your Majesty..."

"It's Uncle Wang who came..." Ji Zhao sat firmly on the throne, but he couldn't express the exhaustion in his heart.

"Your Majesty...you have to take care of your health!" Originally, Chen Bo and Jiwei wanted to complain, but seeing his "nephew" like this, he said such a sentence out of nowhere.

Ji Zhao was also very surprised. He even wondered if this was the same Ji Wei who had no money and could not afford to be early?

But Ji Zhao asked at this time: "If there are loyal ministers in the Ji family, are you one of them, Uncle Wang?"

"I'm also a descendant of the Ji family, how can I not consider for the Ji family!" Ji Wei said slowly.

If he said this before, the emperor would not believe it at all, but now that Ji Wei's family and country are broken, these words have some credibility.

Seeing that the Son of Heaven was still expressionless, Ji Wei knew that his elder nephew was angry at the silence of most of the other countries, so he enlightened him again: "Not only a minister, Uncle Liang is also a descendant of Ji's family, and will live and die with His Majesty. of."

"Uncle Liang..." Thinking of this, the Son of Heaven still shook his head, this person didn't even dare to fart in this incident, how can he be counted on?
Ji Wei's words, not only did not persuade the emperor Ji Zhao to be in a good mood, but made him even more angry.

If General Chen Di and General Liang Di hadn't rebelled one after another, causing the royal family to suffer huge losses, how could the royal family be like today, with no room for maneuver.

But it is completely meaningless to say all of this now, the general trend of the world is already in the hands of those big countries.

But at this moment, the Son of Heaven suddenly changed his subject and said: "I know...Although Chu Gong, Wu Gong, and Qi Gong support me to reunite, it is just to give Wei Hou a step down, and there is no real reason to rely on the royal family. Heart."

The emperor sighed, and then continued: "This time the Wei people fought in the building, maybe they are gloating about their misfortune, and the royal family's authority has been hit. It is definitely not a bad thing for the Chu and Wu countries!"

Ji Wei knelt down like this, listening to the statement of the emperor above honestly, which was also a rare heartfelt thought of this difficult emperor.

The emperor said bitterly: "So, it is my wishful thinking to let those big countries serve as loyal ministers!"

"Your Majesty, the minister is incompetent!" Ji Wei bowed again. At that time, he was in contact with envoys from several other countries and was not in the building.

"Forget it, there should be an understanding of this matter..."

Then, I heard Ji Zhao say: "Wait a while, let's send someone to make a warning!"

Ji Wei had no objection to the emperor's helpless decision, because it was already the last fig leaf for the royal family's face.

"Could it be that no one can control the people of Wei?" Thinking of his great cause of restoring the country, Ji Wei felt that there was no hope.
