Chapter 822: Between Gains and Losses
"Suicide?" Xiong Huai's face sank.
Gongziyu is naturally going to die, but he can't die so inexplicably before the charges are announced.
Gongziyu died just after he had just finished sacrificing to the sages of the Wu Kingdom, and he died without any warning, which would inevitably cause panic among the Yue people.
This will also make it difficult for his next trip to the land to achieve the intended effect.
Thinking about it, he couldn't help but stare at the guards who came to report, and said angrily: "Didn't the widow ask you to go and invite Gongziyu to come?" Why did he kill himself, why did he die? β
The guards were frightened, and bowed in panic: "King, the minister doesn't know what's going on, that Gongziyu learned that the king summoned him, he washed and changed clothes, and as a result, Gongziyu hit the wall and died while I couldn't wait." β
Xiong Huai was furious when he heard this, so many people were guarding Gongziyu, and they couldn't even stand a prisoner, so he committed suicide.
This must be the caretaker slackening.
At this time, Zhao Ju immediately spoke: "Great King, Gongzi Yu is dead when he dies, and the top priority now is to block the news and not let other Yue people know about it, otherwise there will definitely be trouble among the Yue people." β
Xiong Huai immediately reacted when he heard this, Gongziyu was dead, and the top priority was how to remedy it, rather than pursue responsibility.
Thinking about it, he turned his head and immediately asked, "Has the news of Gongziyu's suicide been leaked?" β
The guard immediately responded: "Back to the king, it has not been leaked, and after the general learned that Gongziyu had committed suicide, he immediately sealed off the mansion and strictly forbade anyone from entering or leaving." β
"Okay." Xiong Huai breathed a sigh of relief and quickly ordered: "Pass the edict, continue to block Gongziyu's mansion, and strictly prohibit others from entering and leaving." Send someone to cut off Gongziyu's head, pickle it, and wait until it reaches Yuedi, after the widow kills Gongziyu, and then erect his head on the head of Huiji City, which is spurned by all the Yue people. β
"Yui."
"Gongziyu, he thinks that suicide can cause trouble to the widow, this is really naΓ―ve." Xiong Huai sneered, and then instructed Zhao Hua: "General Zhao, you immediately send someone to find someone who looks like Gongzi Yu, and use him to pretend to be Gongzi Yu and be a prisoner." β
"Yui." Knowing that the matter was urgent, Zhao Slip immediately bowed his hand and walked outside.
Then, Xiong Huai groaned, originally he planned to continue to stay in Wu for a period of time to get close to the noble officials of Wu Di, but now that Gongzi Yu has made such a fuss, Wu Di can't stay anymore.
In order to avoid long nights and dreams, the news leaked, and he had to go to Yuedi as soon as possible to kill his son Yucai.
Thinking about it, he looked at the ministers in the palace and said: "Zhuqing, as soon as Gongzi Yu dies, the widow will not be able to continue to take it in Wucheng, and he needs to rush to Yuedi as soon as possible."
Spread the edict, tomorrow the widow will summon Wu officials and nobles in the palace, and then will set up a banquet in the palace to entertain Wu Di nobles, and the day after tomorrow set off to Huiji. β
"The king is wise!"
The other side.
Zhangyi Mansion on it.
When Zhang Qi learned of Zhang Yi's return, he immediately hurried to greet him, and after seeing Zhang Yi's return intact from a distance, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then stepped forward and asked: "Father, are you okay, just now it was rumored in Wucheng that my father assassinated the king, but it made me anxious." β
Zhang Yi recalled what had just happened in the palace, and at this time he still had palpitations, and slowly walked towards the inner mansion with the support of Zhang Zhi, while shaking his head and sighing: "There is no matter, my father just went to the palace to offer treasures, how could he assassinate the king?" It's just that the treasure cup offered for his father is very similar to the treasure cup treasured by the king, and the king thought that the treasure trove of Yingdu was stolen, which caused a misunderstanding.
Then Zhao Hua vouched for his father, proving that the treasure cup offered by his father was a thing of Yue Guo and had nothing to do with the treasure cup of the king of Chu, so the misunderstanding was resolved. β
When Zhang Qi heard this, the stone in his heart fell to the ground, and then asked in a low voice: "Father, what is the effect of this treasure offering?" β
Zhang Yi's face changed, and then he said embarrassedly: "Don't mention it, it's too embarrassing!" β
"Shame?" After a while, he asked puzzledly, "Father, what's going on?" β
Zhang Yi sighed: "After offering the spear of the king of Wu to my father, I learned from the mouth of the king that as early as soon after the fall of the Wu Kingdom, Goujian, the king of Yue, offered three identical spears to the king of Chu. β
"Three-handled?" Zhang Qi was shocked: "How many Wu Wang spears are there?" β
"I don't know, I think there must be a lot." Zhang Yi shook it, and then a smile appeared on his face: "After offering the treasure cup to his father, the king rewarded his father with three more precious treasure cups made of five-colored stones. β
Speaking of this, Zhang Yi sighed: "This time I was reckless and impulsive for my father, I thought that the treasure of the Yue Kingdom would definitely make the king's heart move, but I don't want to, the treasures of my Yue Country are just ordinary utensils in the eyes of the king, and they are not worth mentioning at all." β
βΒ·Β·Β·β The chapter period is dumb, and I don't know what to say.
I went to offer the treasure with great anticipation, but found that the King of Chu didn't care about the things offered, which not only did not make the King of Chu pay more attention to it, but also made the King of Chu look down on it.
Thinking about it, Zhang Qi said a little lonely: "Father, isn't this offering of treasure backfired." β
"Nope." Zhang Yi shook his head, with a hint of smugness on his face, and said with a smile: "This time for my father I succeeded, although the king did not fancy the treasure offered by his father, but he had already tested the king's mind. β
"The king's mind?"
"Hmm!" Zhang Yi nodded and said: "Although the king respects Wu Hou and elevates Wu Hou's status, he will not hand over the power of Wu Land to Wu Hou, so as not to make Wu Hou big and cause the matter of Shu Hou Hui to repeat itself in Jiangdong." In order to restrict the Marquis of Wu, the king will hand over the power of Wu to his father, so that his father will continue to assist Zhaohua in governing Wu. β
Zhang Qi was stunned for a moment, and nodded thoughtfully.
At this time, Zhang Yi, who was walking towards the inner courtyard, suddenly stopped.
Zhang Qi was stunned for a moment, and when he hesitated, he heard Zhang Yi speak:
"It's decided for my father, the monster who harmed my Yue Kingdom can't continue to stay, you take someone to kill her."
Zhang Qi was shocked: "Father, aren't you planning to give him to the king?" Why... Why..."
Zhang Yi said coldly: "Originally, my father didn't know the king's intentions, so he naturally wanted to sacrifice her to the king to keep the glory and wealth of my Zhang family, but now, the king treats me as a countryman, and I will repay him as a countryman." Isn't this kind of monster dedicated to the king a fox king and a stupefiing king?
Such a misservice to the country and the people, loyal to his father, loyal to the country, loyal to the king, how could he follow the example of Wu Hou who sacrificed his daughter for glory. β
After speaking, Zhang Yi raised his head and walked towards the inner mansion with great righteousness.
At this time, Zhang Qi stopped in place, looked at the back of Zhang Yi's departure, and was silent for a long time, until Zhang Yi's figure disappeared at the foot of the wall, and then he withdrew his tangled gaze.
