"The edict said that Gongzi Ziqing was about to get married in Zhao State, and the widow was very happy in his heart. At the same time, although Gongzi Ziqing does not hold a wedding in the country, the widow cannot but celebrate the widow's son.

Therefore, the widow wanted to set up a banquet in the palace to invite the ministers, and all the doctors in the Yingdu and those above the doctor's title, after receiving the edict, immediately arranged the things in their hands, and all entered the palace to participate in the banquet.

In addition, for the sake of the son, Qinghe, the widow decided to kick the doctor below the title of three catties of meat and three pots of wine, so that the ministers and the widow could rejoice. ”

"The widow hasn't hunted for a long time, and now he wants to go out of the city to hunt in Yunmeng. The edict immediately dispatched a large army to clean up the Yunmeng hunting ground, and the widow will hunt in Yunmeng with his ministers tomorrow. ”

As soon as the edict was issued, the ministers of the entire Yingdu acted quickly. At the same time, with the actions of the ministers, the news that the king of Chu feasted the ministers for the celebration of his son Qingqing also flew away and spread in Yingdu.

The other side.

After the four Su Dai heard the two edicts of the King of Chu, their faces all changed.

Among them, Zhai Zhang said with a nervous face: "The news of the King of Chu's banquet for his ministers spread all over Yingdu at a very fast speed, and it must be the King of Chu behind the scenes. When rumors were spreading in the city, the king of Chu suddenly spread such news, thinking that the king of Chu had found a way to dispel the rumors. ”

"Not bad." Zhang Ping nodded approvingly, and said with a heavy face: "Before, everyone said that Le Jun and they were reversed, and yesterday the city gate was closed because the army of Le Jun and others killed Yingdu, but now, the king of Chu first feasted his ministers in the palace, and then went out of the city to hunt. The former is to tell the people that the country is still stable, and the king of Chu is still looking for fun, and the latter is to show that there is peace outside the city, and the king of Chu is okay when he goes out of the city to hunt.

In this way, all the rumors in the city before will be self-defeating. ”

"And that's not all." Feng Xi remembered the situation of the Qin State, and said with an ugly face: "Just now, the King of Chu suddenly issued an edict to let all the middle and high-level noble officials in Yingdu immediately enter the palace to participate in the banquet, this is not only to show the peace to the people, but also to control the ministers openly and honestly, and cut off the connection between the ministers and the outside of the palace.

Moreover, because of the rumors, there are many things in Yingdu. And after the king of Chu transferred a large number of officials, all the things in Yingdu were backlogged on low-level officials, so that the low-level officials in Yingdu would be entangled in state affairs and had nothing to do with other things. ”

Saying that, Feng Xi sighed and said: "Now, most of our spies have been arrested by the Chu people, and the ministers of Yingdu are either stranded in the palace, or they are entangled in a lot of food, and they are unable to continue to promote the rumors in the city, and the feudal monarchs of the Chu State will definitely not dare to come forward because they do not have us and the ministers of Yingdu as a cover."

In this way, without the guidance of others, under the impetus of the King of Chu and Chen Zhen, the rumors of Yingdu will definitely change and will no longer be unfavorable to the Chu State. ”

When Zhang Ping heard this, his face changed, and he sighed: "What a plan to kill three birds with one stone." ”

At this time, Su Dai listened to the words of the three of them and smiled: "The three of them don't have to be nervous, no matter how the rumors in the Yingdu change now, they can't change the fact that the king of Chu and the feudal lords in various places are becoming more and more separated." So, now we don't have to do anything, just sit here and watch the wind and clouds in Yingdu, and then wait for the news of Lejun and them to come.

As long as Le Jun and the others turn against the King of Chu, at that time, even if the King of Chu is clever and fantastic, what is the use. ”

The three of them were stunned for a moment, and then laughed at the same time: "Yes, as long as Le Jun and the others turn against the King of Chu, then we will be done." ”

City.

As most expected, after the loss of those who fanned the flames, as the largest spy organization in Yingdu and even the entire Chu State, as soon as Beiya made a move, the rumors in the entire Yingdu suddenly changed greatly.

For a time, the whole Yingdu was full of rumors about how the king of Chu was wise and martial, how the ministers were loyal, and how the countries were insidious...

In the Chu Palace, Xiong Huai and the ministers were immersed in the singing and dancing of the banquet, and they were happy, as if all the disturbances in the city did not exist.

It wasn't until late at night that Xiong Huai announced the end of the banquet.

But... Early the next morning, Xiong Huai took his ministers to Yunmeng in high spirits and started a day of hunting.

In the evening, Xiong Huai took his ministers to Zhanghua Palace in Yunmeng, and announced that he would continue to hold a banquet in Zhanghua Palace tonight to share the fruits of today's hunting.

After the announcement, Xiong Huai instructed the waiters to prepare soup and water to bathe and change clothes, and walked straight to his dormitory.

At this time, Chen Zhen walked quickly behind Xiong Huai and reported in a low voice: "Wang, the spies are here to report, Le Jun and they have already received the news, and they learned that Le Jun Sima Yiyang Jun and Sima all died in Yingdu, and after learning the news, Le Jun and the others were all terrified. Because Lingjun Sima and the other seven people all said in unison that the eight people who died were all killed by the king.

So... Lejun and the others all fled last night. ”

"I've fled..." Xiong Huai breathed a long sigh of relief when he heard this, and then smiled: "Even if they are still a little loyal, they didn't directly raise the flag." ”

Chen Zhen smiled slightly in his heart, in fact, when the rumors of King Chu and him in Yingdu were just rising, they had already expected that Lejun and they would not raise their banners to rebel, one of the very important reasons was that Lejun and their fiefdom had been lost, and even the army in their hands remained in Juyang.

With Yin Zhaoju's wisdom, he would definitely not return the army to Lejun and them again without clarifying the situation.

With no soldiers and no territory, and they are deeply guilty of losing their land, Le Jun and others will definitely not take the lead in rebelling, this is a dead end.

The reality is just as expected, Lejun and they really didn't have the courage to raise the flag and rebel.

At this time, Xiong Huai groaned for a moment and asked, "Where did they run away, Lejun?" ”

"Back to the king, although the fifteen of them reached an agreement, all of them thought that they should flee, but they did not agree on the destination of the escape, some of them planned to flee to various countries, and some of them planned to defect to other feudal monarchs. However, because the inner Ying we planted beside them was deliberately guided, we have led them to the city of Ewang and let them flee through the channels of the Ejun. ”

"Good." Xiong Huai nodded.

In fact, long before the countries invaded Chu, Xiong Huai had already prepared in advance, not only prepared two sets of response plans, but also bought the courtiers of the feudal monarch who was about to lose his fief in advance in response to the loss of Chen Cheng, in case of accidents.

In the past few days, rumors spread in Yingdu, why Xiong Huai and Chen Zhen are as stable as a rock is because of the key to this incident, and the fifteen feudal monarchs of Le Jun are all under their control.

As long as you master Lejun and them, you will have the key, no matter how the rumors of Yingdu spread, they will eventually spread in the direction Xiong Huai wants.

Thinking about it, Xiong Huai suddenly asked: "Chen Zhen, the widow has a question, I wonder if Lejun took the initiative to come to Yingdu to ask for guilt?" ”

Hearing this, Chen Zhen was silent for a moment, then bowed his head and said, "Yes, according to the report from the spies, after Xiang Jun's grandson learned of the turmoil in Yingdu, he had already accelerated his speed to come to Yingdu. ”

Xiong Huai was stunned when he heard this, Chen Zhen's answer was not what he asked, but Chen Zhen had already given the answer to what he asked.

In the face of rumors, none of the fifteen feudal monarchs took the initiative to come to Yingdu to ask for guilt, just hearing some rumors, they thought that he, the king of Chu, was going to do something to them, so they fled directly.

This...

Xiong Huai sighed: "It's not for nothing that they compare the widow to the king of Li. ”
