Chapter 815: The Lu Brothers
After figuring out the key points of the strategy, Xiong Huai laughed and said: "Okay, good, a good strategy to use Wu to control the Yue, just with this strategy, you can reach an army of 50,000." ”
"The king is wise!" Zhao said with a smile.
Xiong Huai nodded: "Since we want to implement the policy of using Wu to control Yue, then in order to stabilize the Ji family, Ji Feng can't dispose of this person at will." However, since Ji Feng still retains the heart of luck, he can't be allowed to stay in Wudi to make waves. ”
Saying that, Xiong Huai pondered for a while, then his eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "This matter is also easy to do, since Ji Feng has taken the lead by himself, it is also to blame the widow for being polite." ”
Saying that, Xiong Huai said to Zhaohua: "Xianqing, one of the very important purposes of this widow's visit to Jiangdong is to come to worship the ancestors of Wu and Yue. Wu Guotai Zhongyong has the virtue of giving way, and Yanling Jizi is a world-famous sage, these three people are the target of the widow's sacrifice, and after Wu Hou is Jizi, this matter can't be bypassed him anyway.
When the widow sacrifices Ji Zi, all the children of the Ji family will inevitably gather in Yanling, and at that time, the widow will directly take Ji Feng Ji away.
Therefore, later Xianqing sent an invitation to Wu Hou, and the widow would have a banquet for him in the palace to discuss the matter of sacrifice with him. ”
"Yui."
Then, Xiong Huai spoke again: "Xianqing, the Yue Kingdom has been in exile for nearly two years, I don't know how Gongzi Yu is now?" ”
"Back to the king, since Gongziyu was captured, he has been imprisoned in his mansion by the ministers, and he has been taken care of by his life."
"Good!" Xiong Huai nodded and said, "After the widow has finished sacrificing to the ancestor of Wu State, he will take Gongziyu to Yuedi." ”
"Yui." Zhao Slippery responded, although the King of Chu didn't say what to do with Gongzi Yu to Yuedi, but he could imagine it.
And just when Xiong Huai and Zhao Hua were talking about Ji Feng, Ji Feng came to a courtyard in Wucheng alone at this time.
"You two brothers have done a great thing, I said a long time ago, not long after the fall of the Yue State, the Chu State is very strict against the Yue people, and it is not appropriate to act rashly at this time, so as not to attract the attention of the Chu people. As a result, you are good, not only did you not hibernate, but you also lured the king of Chu over.
Originally, the king of Chu stationed 80,000 troops in Jiangdong, which has overwhelmed us, and now the king of Chu has brought 80,000 Chu troops, a total of 160,000 troops, even if the Yue country is still there, even if the main force of the Yue country is also there, in the face of the 160,000 army, it is difficult to be an opponent.
Now that you have only a few thousand, you will not be able to take a palm, do you want to be exterminated by the Chu State? ”
Originally, Lu Lang learned that the King of Chu had rushed to Wucheng in person, and he was worried about whether Ji Feng would show his flaws and affect their brothers. No, as soon as Ji Feng entered the door, he blamed their brother for attracting the Chu army, and cursed them that their last hope of Yue Guo was also extinguished by the Chu State.
At this moment, Ji Feng suddenly evoked his painful memories, remembering that Yue Wang Wuqiang was killed by a traitor, Gongzi was forced to commit suicide, Yue Wang Jiu was killed by Qi State, and remembered that in the past two years, he fled from Wucheng to Huiji, and then fled from Huiji to the sea, and then the Chu people chased after him, so he could only go to sea by boat, float to the sea to Qi State, and then return to Wucheng from Qi State.
turned around and came back, only to find that Wu Cheng had long been a person, and the arrogant Yue people in the past are now living a precarious life, while the Wu people, who were originally pressed by the Yue people and couldn't raise their heads, have now turned over.
At this moment, in the face of Ji Feng's reprimand, Lu Lang couldn't hold back the misery and anger in his heart anymore, and directly said mockingly: "Who knows who the King of Chu was attracted to, my brother fled back to Jiangdong from the Qi State for only a few months, and it was too late to hide, so how could he take the initiative to make trouble to attract the attention of the Chu people?" ”
Speaking of this, Lu Lang looked at Ji Feng and said with a mocking smile: "It is said that my brother attracted the King of Chu, but it is better to say that you, the son of the Marquis of Wu, attracted the King of Chu." If the king of Chu learns the news of my brother, he only needs to give an order, and Zhao Hua Tang can send a large army to arrest my brother, where is the need for the king of Chu to personally lead the army to come. ”
"This..." Ji Feng looked at Lu Fang and Lu Lang hesitantly.
Originally, I thought that the king of Chu led the army to Jiangdong because the two brothers of Lu Fang were lucky in the confrontation between Qi and Wei and Chu not long ago, and they secretly made trouble and were discovered by the Chu people, which led to the king of Chu coming here.
But now when he heard Lu Lang's explanation, Ji Feng not only hesitated again.
If they reveal their hiding, there is indeed no need for the king of Chu to go out, only an edict is enough.
If the king of Chu didn't come for the Yue people, then why did the king of Chu come?
At this time, Lu Lang saw that Ji Feng was in doubt, and couldn't help sneering: "Now that my strength in Yue Guo has been greatly damaged, there is no need for the King of Chu to come out in person, therefore, this time the King of Chu took great pains to lead the army to come, in my opinion, it must be you who showed your feet, and the King of Chu is here for you."
As the son of Wu Hou, you have a noble status, and Zhao Slip does not dare to touch you easily. Moreover, the strength of the Wu people has increased greatly after the fall of the Yue Kingdom, and your Yanling Ji clan has a very high reputation among the Wu people, as long as you ascend to the heights, you will inevitably respond to many people.
Therefore, the king of Chu came with his army this time, and nine times out of ten, he came for your Ji clan. ”
Ji Feng was stunned, and hurriedly shook his head and said: "This is impossible, the Chu State has made great efforts to destroy my Ji Clan, my Ji Clan has meritorious service to the Chu State, and is even more loyal to the King of Chu, how can the King of Chu target my Ji Clan for no reason?" ”
Lu Lang sneered without hesitation: "Are you really loyal?" And thou yourselves touch thy conscience and say, Do thou believe this yourself? ”
Ji Feng was dumbfounded for a moment, and then was silent for a while before he broke out in a cold sweat and said, "Could it be that the King of Chu is really here for my Ji clan?" ”
At this time, Lu Fang saw that Ji Feng was frightened, so he took a step forward and reprimanded: "How can the virtuous brother speak to the son like this, my brother has been in Wu during this time, and he has been favored by the son, have you forgotten all this?" I don't apologize to Childe yet! ”
When Lu Lang heard this, he snorted coldly in his heart, and then bowed to Ji Feng.
Then, Lu Fang also arched his hand and said: "Childe, my brother has no words, and I ask my son to forgive my sins." However, according to the following opinion, the king of Chu came to Jiangdong this time, I am afraid that he did not come for you and me, but to appease the people of Jiangdong. Otherwise, if the King of Chu really knows about you and me, he can directly make an edict, whether it is my Yueren, or you, Gongzi, or even the Ji family, they will not be able to resist Zhaohua.
Therefore, this time the king of Chu led a large army to come, and he must have heard that Jiangdong was unstable in the previous two wars, so he rushed to Jiangdong, one used the Chu army to suppress Jiangdong, and the other bought people's hearts to appease the people. ”
Speaking of this, Lu Fang smiled: "Before the next war, the Chu State was tax-free in the whole country, and Shangyong Hanbei was tax-free for two years. And my Jiangdong is newly attached, it is difficult to collect taxes, and there are many tax evaders, so I think the king of Chu must have come to Jiangdong this time to announce tax exemption. ”
When Ji Feng heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, nodded and said, "Yes, it should be like this in the next generation, otherwise the King of Chu doesn't have to come in person." ”
Then, Ji Feng once again told the Lu brothers not to cause trouble during the period when King Chu was in Jiangdong, and then left.
"Cowardly as a mouse." Lu Lang watched Ji Feng's back disappear outside the door, and immediately spat at him.
Seeing this, Lu Fang shook his head, and then grabbed Lu Lang and said: "Brother Xian, I can see that the country of Chu is powerful, and these two successive attacks on Chu by various countries have not forced the Chu army away from Jiangdong, it is foreseeable that in the next few years, there is no hope for my Yue country to recover."
Therefore, Brother Wei planned to leave Wucheng, first go back to Yuedi to lurk, wait for Chu to relax its vigilance, wait for Chu to transfer most of the Chu army in Jiangdong, and then wait for the opportunity to move. ”
"Brother, do you really want to leave Wu City?"
Lu Fang nodded vigorously, then looked outside, and said coldly: "In order to avoid long nights and dreams, I will pack up my things tonight, and we will leave early tomorrow morning." ”
"Alas~" Lu Lang let out a long sigh
Lu Fang also sighed, then shook his head and walked outside the mansion.
