Chapter 894: Splitting Jiangdong

As soon as Zhao Ju's voice fell, the hall suddenly fell silent, and everyone looked at Zhao Ju in amazement. Most of them were amazed by Zhaoju's boldness and admired Zhaoju's bravery. There were also many people who looked at Zhao Ju's gaze, full of disbelief and anger.

The ministers in the palace, and even the people of the Chu State, knew that since the king of Chu destroyed Yue, he had controlled the entire Jiangdong piece of fat in the hands of the king of Chu, and did not let others interfere in it.

Even Jingcui Zhaoju and others, who have made great contributions, are all sealed in Huainan, and there is no Chu State feudal monarch in Jiangdong.

Especially not long ago, after Tang Wu, the king of Chu, changed the law in Jiangdong, it made everyone even more afraid, lest the king of Chu would promote the affairs of Jiangdong to the entire Chu country.

However, now, as soon as Zhao Ju took office, the first thing he proposed was to divide Jiangdong County into two counties and arrange for the county guards to govern the land of Wuyue.

In this way, they have the opportunity to meddle in Jiangdong, as long as they can serve as the county guard of Wuyue, they can not only obtain the benefits of Jiangdong, but also, even, confront Sima Tang in Jiangdong, and sabotage Jiangdong's changes to stop the king of Chu.

Thinking of this, many people couldn't help but look at Zhao Ju with enthusiasm.

This is the Ling Yin in their minds, the previous Jing Cui, who was powerless in the face of Qu Yuan, was really too far behind.

The king of Chu chose Zhaoju as Ling Yin, which was really the right choice.

At this time, the breathing of the ministers in the hall became more and more rapid and excited.

At the same time, Xiong Huai was stunned at first when he heard Zhao Ju's words, then took a big breath of cold air, and then glanced at Zhao Ju with a calm gaze, and saw that he looked loyal to the country, not only frowned slightly, then lowered his head and fell into deep thought, and was silent for a long time.

When Jiangdong changed the law before, Zhao Ju had always stayed in Jiangdong and experienced Jiangdong's reform firsthand.

Moreover, over the years, Zhao Ju has always been a close minister by his side, and it is impossible not to know his thoughts as the king of Chu.

Similarly, the importance of the current Jiangdong to the Chu State, it is even more impossible for Zhao Ju not to be unclear.

If Jiangdong County is divided into two counties, there is no doubt that Tang Yu, who is in charge of Jiangdong at this moment, will inevitably have less control over Jiangdong.

If the new county guard opposes the change, this will not only cause Tang Wu to carefully carry out the change, but also to fight with the county guard at any time, which will definitely restrain Tang Wu's great mental strength, and even, if he is not careful, Jiangdong's change, and even the change that Chu will carry out in the future, will be interrupted.

In this regard, Xiong Huai must not bear it.

However, Zhao Ju's words also occupy the righteousness.

The 26 counties in Jiangdong and the population of 2 million are indeed too large, and if someone gains the support of the Wu people and the Yue people and holds the territory, they have the strength to resist the central government, and even the possibility of splitting the ground to build a country.

As Zhao Ju said, dividing Jiangdong into two is indeed for the sake of the Chu State and the plan for the future.

However, he said that it was for the king of Chu, that is nonsense, this is not for the king of Chu, but for calculation.

Therefore, Zhao Ju's suggestion is reasonable, and it is his first suggestion after serving as Ling Yin, so it is not easy to refuse directly.

Otherwise, just now Xiong Huai directly appointed Zhao Ju as Ling Yin, that is to slap himself in the face, and it is the kind that is swollen.

But don't refuse, open your mouth and let the ministers discuss?

Xiong Huai looked at the green eyes of most of the ministers, how could he not know what they were thinking.

At this moment, Xiong Huai suddenly fell into a dilemma, refusing is not, not refusing, not refusing.

After a pause, Xiong Huai raised his head again and looked at Zhao Ju with a hesitant gaze.

The first thing Zhao Ju did after taking office was to give him a dilemma...

What Zhao Ju was thinking, and what he wanted to do.

Then, Xiong Huai thought for a moment, and then showed a smile.

Since you can't refuse, and you can't let the ministers speak, then put aside the ministers and talk to Zhaoju, the king of Chu, in person.

Although he, the king of Chu, can't get off the field easily, as the king of Chu, he, the referee, can also get off the field.

Thinking about it, Xiong Huai's gaze swept over the ministers again, and then looked at Zhao Ju and asked, "What Ling Yin said does make some sense, Jiangdong County is indeed too big. However, Jiangdong Xinfu has not yet completely surrendered, so just in case, the widow wants to hear Ling Yin talk in detail. ”

"Yes, my lord." Zhao Ju bowed his hand, and then said righteously: "Coupling the country, this is the root cause of the country's turmoil, the minister is Ling Yin, and when he learns of this, he must not speak to the king." Jiangdong County is too big, not only is it a newly attached land, but it is too far away from Yingdu, so the minister thinks that Jiangdong County must be separated, so as not to be difficult to govern. ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Ju once again arched his hand and said: "King, it's not that the minister doesn't trust Sima, but in fact, the minister can't pin all the country's affairs on Sima's loyalty. ”

When Xiong Huai heard this, he couldn't help but nodded, if he could, he would also choose to make Jiangdong unable to betray, rather than not betraying.

Therefore, the minister's meaning is to divide Jiangdong into two and set up Wu County in Wu to stimulate the sense of identity of the Wu people, so that the Wu people can break away from the Yue people, so that the Yue people cannot hold the Wu people hostage. At the same time, the establishment of Huiji County in Vietnam to weaken the Yue people's sense of belonging to the Yue country, and at the same time, the word Huiji can also make it easy for the Yue people to identify. ”

Xiong Huai nodded again, just from the names of the two counties of Wu County and Huiji County, it can be seen that Zhao Ju used a lot of thought, not to ignore the interests of the Chu State for some reasons.

As long as he still takes into account the interests of Chu in the general direction, Xiong Huai can tolerate this.

After all, no one is sure that they are right about their predictions about the future and the future direction of the country. Although Xiong Huai may not adopt a strategy that is different from his own, he can tolerate or even tolerate it.

However, like the previous Shangguan doctor, ignoring the interests of the Chu State, it is absolutely unbearable.

This is the bottom line, the bottom line that no one can step on.

Thinking about it, Xiong Huai's gaze softened a lot when he saw Zhaoju, setting up Wu County and Huiji County, he could agree in principle, but the key was the candidate for the county guard.

This time, Zhao Ju's selfishness has many weights, and it depends on his choice in the county guard.

Choose the changer, choose the opposition, or kick the ball out for everyone to discuss?

Of the three choices, which one will you choose?

Xiong Huai looked at Zhao Ju and asked with a smile: "If Jiangdong is divided into two counties, I don't know what Ling Yin thinks, those two can be the heads of these two counties." ”

As soon as King Chu's voice fell, the ministers in the palace held their breath, and then looked at Zhao Ju intently.

Here comes the most critical question.

At this moment, there are even many ministers who are ready to volunteer or recommend their friends after Zhaoju shirks.

Now that Yin Zhaoju has created an opportunity, it's up to them to do the next.

Jiangdong will not give up this piece of fat.
