Chun Shenjun blocked everything for the king of Chu.

And he lost almost everything.

His wealth, his food, his family... Even his fame, constant defeats, and constant sacrifices made the Chu people look at him with disgust, because in the eyes of the Chu people, Chun Shenjun was responsible for the failure of these wars, and the change brought a series of turmoil, but he was forced to stop without any gain, which made Chun Shenjun a public enemy.

And a bizarre rumor quickly spread in the state of Chu, some people said: The king of Chu is infertile, and the children of the king of Chu are all the sons of Huang Xie, and they were dedicated to the king of Chu after Huang Xie had the princess.

Probably because of the dissatisfaction with the king of Chu and Huang Xie, or perhaps because of the promotion of the persecuted nobles, this rumor quickly spread throughout the Chu State, Chun Shenjun was disgraced, and the doormen left him again, they were all suspicious of Huang Xie's character, and incompetence, lewdness, betrayal, and harm to the people, these have become the Chu people's accusations against Chun Shenjun, Chun Shenjun was immersed in the great pain of the death of his family, but he was still dealing with the affairs of the Chu State.

For example, the most important ones, the discussion and the question.

The Qin people's demands were simple, cede the land and severely punish Chun Shenjun.

The king of Chu was very angry about this, and he was even ready to mobilize his own soldiers to kill on the battlefield, but Huang Xie stopped him.

Immediately, the state of Chu admitted defeat and ceded a large area of land, including Juyang, to the state of Qin, which made the state of Chu completely lose the last line of defense, and the capital of the state of Chu was once again exposed to the sight of the Qin people, and the state of Chu lost the last barrier, which was definitely a difficult thing for the state of Chu to accept, but the king of Chu had no way not to accept it, because of the rebellion of the nobles, the army that the king of Chu could gather was only 100,000.

Faced with the Qin State, which could mobilize hundreds of thousands of soldiers, the King of Chu only hoped to end the war as soon as possible.

If the war continues to drag on, I am afraid that the state of Chu will really perish, and the state of Qin will not be able to swallow the state of Chu at one time, the territory of the state of Chu is too vast, for the state of Chu, the state of Qin can only cut the meat first, make him thinner, and then eat it in one bite, so this is a compromise between the two sides, and Chun Shenjun was also taken away by the king of Chu, took away the fief, and was demoted to a commoner, and the king of Chu used Jingyang to serve as Ling Yin.

Chun Shenjun's demotion also represents the failure of the Chu State's reform.

Qin Guo happily swallowed the land of Chu State, and then he burped contentedly and left. As for the state of Chu, the king of Chu put all his anger on those rebellious nobles, Jingyang commanded the whole army, frantically pursued and killed those nobles, and executed them, their families, and their friends. For a time, the state of Chu was full of mourning, and the nobles from all over the country died one after another, but it was Huang Xie who dissuaded him in time, and the king of Chu stopped killing.

And such a move paralyzed the government affairs of the Chu State.

There are no officials and administrative staff in various places, so that thieves are everywhere, the people are not happy, killing each other, robbing property, and the general Jingyang, who has just quelled the rebellion, is also a little helpless in the face of such a Chu State, fortunately, a doorman named Huang Sheng helped him, this Huang Sheng is very mysterious, and few people can see him in ordinary times, so he helps Jingyang to deal with government affairs and appoint officials.

"Chunshen-kun... The pseudonym you have in mind is too simple, isn't it? The Qin people will definitely be able to see through it! ”

Jingyang took a sip of wine, looked at Huang Xie who was lying on the desk not far away, and asked. Huang Xie didn't look up, he didn't speak, he became very silent, the killing of his family gave him a big blow, fortunately his brother saved one of his children, and a son, but looking at them, Huang Xie always thought of his family members who were killed, his father, mother, brothers and sisters, wife, and his people.

Jingyang didn't say anything, just drank wine and watched Huang Xie busy.

"Do you regret it?"

Huang Xie raised his head, his eyes were bloodshot, and he said, "What's the use of regretting? This is all my fault, I misjudged the intentions of the Qin State, and I also mistakenly thought that the Zhao State and the Wei State could hold the Qin State back, I thought that the power of the nobles had been weakened a lot, but I did not expect that they would be able to recruit soldiers from half of the territory of the Chu State to fight for them.... I almost let the state of Chu perish. ”

"Is that why you don't go to see the king anymore? The king misses you very much. ”

Huang Xie trembled for a moment before he said: "I don't have the face to go to see the king again, I originally wanted to commit suicide.... But I found that I didn't even have the courage to die, I didn't have the courage to live, I didn't even have the courage to die..."

"The State of Chu can't live without you... If you don't have all this mess, who will do it? Let me? I only drink! Jingyang said drunkly: "Don't think about life or death, even if it's for the Chu State, you can't die, if you want to die, first train a few qualified young people for the Chu State, so that they can inherit your position, and then you die." ”

Huang Xie looked at him thoughtfully.

After a few days, there were really more than a dozen young people around this "Huang Sheng", these young people followed him all day long, helping him to deal with domestic government affairs, Huang Sheng sat on the sidelines, watching them deal with it, if there was something wrong, he would severely reprimand them, and at other times, Huang Sheng was always teaching them other aspects of knowledge, such as letting them understand the relationship between countries and let them master the way to govern the country.

After Jingyang sobered up, he expressed his disdain for Huang Xie's behavior, he didn't think that finding a few young people at random could cultivate a group of virtuous people who could govern the country... Huang Xie thought that it was a little too simple. Soon after, these young people went to various places to serve as county magistrates and other positions, and Huang Xie was surrounded by a group of young people. Nowadays, the nobles in various places have suffered heavy casualties, and there is a serious shortage of officials.

But it was the best time to arrange officials.

And in another war, that is, in Shangdang, Lian Po returned in vain, and Lian Po's partial division was even swallowed by the Qin people, Lian Po divided the partial division, originally wanted to involve the main force of the Qin State, so that he could fight with the Qin people on all fronts, and take away the priority on the battlefield, Lian Po also deliberately chose the relatively weak left wing of the Qin State, and let the partial division be involved, and the left wing was guarded by a young man of the Qin State, called Wang Qian, and there was no outstanding record.

As a result, this young man actually directly ate Lian Po's partial teacher.... As for how he did it, it was to face the battle head-on, divide the battlefield through excellent command skills, and fight more and less, it was still the same old method, but such a method could always play an amazing role in those who could use him, and the reason why Lian Po let the partial division attack the army on the left flank of the Qin army was originally to put pressure on the Qin people and force the Qin people to fight with him.

Therefore, the left flank without tank units was deliberately chosen, who would have thought? Wang Jian actually used infantry to cut the battlefield... Surrounded by Zhao people, there is no mistake at all, it can be said that he is cautious to the bones, but he is bold to the extreme, this kind of play, it is estimated that Zhao Ren is also the first time to see, there is no elusive like Bai Qi, but he has his aggressiveness, and he does not have Le Yi's superb organizational ability (it is said that Le Yi can organize ten armies to fight at the same time), but he has inhuman command ability.

This guy completely used tens of thousands of soldiers as hundreds of thousands of people, and all kinds of advances, all kinds of cutting, and cooperation led by the chief made Zhao people stunned soon after the battle, and after being surrounded by regiments, Wang Jian also accepted these military exploits.

Zhao could only stop the attack and return to Zhao, and the Qin people did not continue the pursuit.

By winter, the war was over, and Qin had won its first victory since the death of the king. This greatly encouraged the fighting spirit of the Qin people, and in all parts of Xianyang, you can see the cheering people, it can be said that the Qin State washed away the sorrow caused by the death of the King of Qin through a huge victory, but this victory did not make the Qin people happy for too long, because, An Guojun fell ill again.

Probably because of the cold winter, An Guojun's physical condition became worse and worse, and he was in a coma for several days, and he didn't have any consciousness at all.

The ministers of Qin were very worried, Zhao Kuo also went to see An Guojun a few times, I heard that Lu Buwei invited a famous doctor, this doctor is still a little powerful, after he treated for a period of time, An Guojun opened his eyes again, An Guojun During this period of time, he always called Yiren to his side, let Yiren serve him, Yiren did not have any disagreement about this, he was by An Guojun's side all day long, and served him respectfully.

"Inhuman... I'm going to tell you eight things, and these eight things you have to listen to! ”

An Guojun struggled to sit up and looked at his son in front of him.

The Inhuman knelt in front of him, head bowed.

"The first thing is that you are not allowed to be the wife of Zhao Guo... I've heard that some of her actions in Zhao are not very proper... Of course, what I care about is not this, whether it violates the etiquette or not is nothing, but her background is too low, and she has no ability, I am afraid that she will affect your judgment and make you make some wrong decisions, you can have her, but you can't spoil her. ”

"Yui!"

"The second thing is that you have to take Zhao Zheng as your successor. Zhao Zheng, this kid is smart enough, and he will serve as the king of Qin in the future, Wu Chengjun, Han Fei, Xunzi and others will stay in the Qin State and serve the Qin State, these are rare talents, you must not force them away! ”

"Yui!"

"The third thing, don't be afraid of Wu Chengjun... Don't be like King Zhao, Wu Chengjun will never have the idea of plotting rebellion, if someone says this about him, then you can kill the person who slanders you. ”

"Yui!"

"The fourth thing, today's Minister of State Lu Buwei has the temperament of a businessman, and he pays more attention to personal interests than the interests of the country, you can use him, but don't trust him too much, and you must not leave everything to him."

"Yui."

"The fifth thing... Mrs. Huayang has followed me for many years, and I know that you are only approaching her to gain my trust, but she really treats you as a son, you can't hurt her, you have to make her the queen mother, if one day, she also leaves, and buries her with me! ”

"It's... Father... I'm not..."

"Promise me!"

"Yui!"

"The sixth thing, you can't easily change the strategy formulated by Ying Hou, you have to plot the Three Jins, then destroy Yan Chu, and finally destroy Qi... You can't make changes without permission, unless it is Wu Chengjun who proposes it. ”

"Yui."

"The seventh thing, you can't waste government affairs, you can't indulge in wine, you must always think about the hegemony of the world, you can't live up to me, you can't live up to the ancestors... We must govern diligently, and we must achieve... The hegemony of the Qin State!! ”

"Yui!"

"The eighth thing... Inhuman... cough cough cough violently...", An Guojun got up helplessly, walked to his side, patted his back gently, An Guojun raised his head, looked at him, and said: "This eighth thing is to take care of yourself... If I'm gone, there's no one to protect you anymore... I didn't do my duty as a father, I didn't take good care of you on weekdays..."

"Father...", Yiren looked at An Guojun, his voice trembled a little, An Guojun was not very good to him, and he couldn't even remember his name, but Yiren remembered that when he was young, An Guojun used himself as a horse and carried himself on his back to run in the palace... An Guojun said with some pain: "Father doesn't like the way I take care of you, he thinks I spoil you too much... said that the son of the Qin State could not grow up in his father's arms..."

"Inhuman...", An Guojun's face was full of tears, and he said, "Don't blame me..."

"Father!" , Inhuman hugged his father tightly, and he cried.

When spring arrives, the period of filial piety is finally over.

An Guojun walked into the palace step by step with the service of his son and became the new king of Qin. The ministers bowed their heads to him, the generals saluted him with tiger talismans, the soldiers cheered, An Guojun sat on the throne, accepted the bows of the ministers, and also issued his first decree, releasing those petty criminals who served in the country and giving them a chance to mend their ways.

The ministers didn't feel that there was anything wrong, the new king ascended the throne and pardoned the criminals, which was a normal thing, but Han Fei didn't think so, he immediately refuted King Qin's order, thinking that such an order was wrong, but fortunately, King Qin did not blame him for his rudeness.

On this day, the Qin people were cheering for their king, and the laughter of the Qin people could be heard everywhere.

On the second day after ascending the throne, the king of Qin fainted in the palace, the imperial doctors gathered around him, anxious for treatment, the ministers were busy, hurriedly carried him to the palace to rest, and the stranger was also with his father's side, his face was full of worry.

On the third day, An Guojun barely opened his eyes, but called Yiren to his side.

An Guojun struggled, but couldn't sit up, and in the end, he gave up struggling, he lay down on the bed calmly, looked at his son seriously, and said:

"I'll leave it to you."

On the third day after ascending the throne, An Guojun died.

He walked calmly, lying in his son's arms, catching up with his father, who had left him.
