Chapter 142: Looks like a robbery

On the second day, the whole Ying was immersed in a festive atmosphere, the streets and alleys were full of singing and laughter, and there were newlyweds everywhere for weddings.

In Yingdu, all families are busy, except for those who are in the process of getting married, the rest are talking about marriage.

The reason for this situation is that the news of the return of the women in the palace by the king of Chu spread from the mouths of the ministers who participated in the court meeting, and many people who were originally watching suddenly thought that there was about to be a shortage of maids in the palace, and the king of Chu would select palace maids among the people.

The current King of Chu has been on the throne for more than ten years, and everyone already knows about the appetite of the King of Chu.

Although the king of Chu is lustful, but his vision is extremely high, when he was the prince, he favored the queen of the south, and after ascending the throne, when the queen of the south was old and decrepit, the king of Chu favored his wife Zheng sleeve, and now Zheng sleeve is degraded, and the king of Chu is now either in Qin Meiren, or in Qi Meiren, and he can't look down on others at all.

At this time, the daughter of his family who was not a heavenly asset was sent to the palace, and then he was released at the age of twenty, wasn't this good year delayed by the King of Chu in vain?

For this reason, a wave of marriage trends was set off within Yingdu.

In the middle of the day, Yingdu Hotel.

Xijun's face was pale, his eyes were blank, his spirit was sluggish, and his legs were a little weak and he walked out of his room.

Yilingjun, who was also depressed, looked envious when he saw Xijun coming, and then said to his attendants: "Let the attendants in the back prepare more nourishing food, and send a medicinal soup to Xijun." ”

"No." The attendant answered.

Xijun thanked him when he heard this: "I have heard for a long time that Yilingjun is good at health preservation, and I can feast on it today, thank you very much!" ”

"Where, it's just some medicinal soup." Saying that, Yilingjun looked at Xijun and sighed: "It's good to be young, if it was before, this gentleman is not bad compared to you, but it's a pity that you are old now." ”

Xijun said with a smile: "Yilingjun said that he was joking, if you hadn't listened to the words of those warlocks and recuperated, you would definitely be able to marry four brides with the benevolence of the king." ”

As he spoke, Xijun turned his head to take a look, and found that he didn't see the other feudal monarchs, and asked, "I don't know where the others are?" ”

Yiling Jun said: "Yesterday, Gong Yin Zhaoju was promoted to Sima, such a happy event, Sima naturally wants to feast guests, and most of the feudal monarchs here are all invited by Sima to participate in the banquet." ”

Xijun was shocked when he heard this, Sima was responsible for the transfer of troops from the Chu State, and Sima was also responsible for the transfer of troops from the Fengjun territory.

Xijun hurriedly asked, "Why didn't Yilingjun go?" ”

Yi Lingjun's face froze, and he said, "This gentleman is worried that you don't know the news of Sima Da's banquet, so he is waiting here. ”

Yi Lingjun sighed secretly in his heart, if it weren't for the old man who had just gotten up and was ready to slow down, where would he be waiting for you here, alas, people are old, and they can't do it.

Xijun saluted and said: "Thank you Yilingjun for telling me, I am grateful, Yilingjun just said that we are, is there anyone else who has not come out?" ”

Yi Lingjun nodded and said: "Yes, there are still several feudal monarchs who have not yet come out, such as the party monarch, who married seven brides last night, and has not yet come out..."

Xijun was stunned for a moment and couldn't help sighing.

A moment later, just as Yilingjun and Xijun were drinking the nourishing medicinal soup, Yilingjun Sima Chenghao rushed over, panting and said, "Your Excellency, a major incident happened in Yingdu just now. ”

Yi Lingjun asked, "What's the matter, it's so urgent." In Yingdu, is there anything big about it? ”

Cheng Hao gasped and said: "Your Majesty, there is news from the Chu Palace this morning, it is said that the King of Chu stayed awake all night last night..."

Xijun smiled meaningfully and said: "What's the big deal, didn't Benjun stay awake all night last night!" ”

Yi Lingjun's old face was flat, and he said unhappily: "That's it? Since the king wanted to learn from Qi Huan and called on the nobles to release the women in the house, there were more people who stayed up all night last night! ”

Cheng Hao shook his head: "Your Majesty, it's not like that, it is said that the king of Chu discussed for a long time with Taifu Yin, who had just woken up from a coma, because of the construction of the palace, and finally rushed to the Taifu money warehouse, the king of Chu personally counted the money warehouse, and finally came to the conclusion that if you want to build a palace, even if you exhaust Taifu, there is still a shortage of 100,000 gold, so the king of Chu and Taifu Yin stayed in Taifu all night last night and stayed awake all night. ”

Yi Lingjun asked, "That's it?" ”

"Your Majesty, the key thing is not this, but this morning." Cheng Hao took a breath and continued: "In the morning, after Jun E learned about this incident, he went into the palace to see the King of Chu. ”

Xijun swallowed a mouthful of medicinal soup, his face showed disdain, and he smiled coldly: "Ejun is rich and rivals the country, and he must be loyal again!" It seems that this king should also prepare fifty gold to offer to the king, lest the king think that we are disloyal! ”

"Yes, Ejun is troublesome!" Yi Lingjun nodded, showing a look of approval.

Cheng Hao's face turned pale and said: "What Xijun said is exact, Ejun is going to show his loyalty and offer gold to the King of Chu, but, according to rumors outside, Ejun offered 10,000 gold this time to support the King of Chu to build a palace." ”

With a "poof", Xijun sprayed all the medicinal soup in his mouth and sprayed Yilingjun on his face.

Then his face turned vermilion, and he patted his chest with one hand, and quickly touched his throat with the other, making a series of coughing sounds.

Yilingjun's medicinal soup came to his mouth, but he was sprayed by Xijun.

Then, he put down the medicinal soup with one hand, and quickly wiped it on his face with the other hand, ignoring Xijun who was choked, and didn't care about his gaffe, and said in shock: "How much did Ejun donate?" Is it a hundred gold or a thousand gold. ”

Cheng Hao's face was not very good: "Your Majesty, it is a donation of 10,000 gold, but the king and Ejun swore that they will return 20,000 gold to Ejun in the future." ”

When Yiling Jun got the confirmed news, his eyes were full of anger, he picked up the copper bowl fiercely, slammed it on the ground, and said angrily: "Zhuzi, you deceive people too much, why return 20,000 gold, this is just a prevarication, it is just to force us to donate money." ”

Xijun learned from the example of Yiling Jun, smashed the copper bowl in his hand on the ground, and said in surprise and anger: "Yes, Ejun donated ten thousand gold, Eqi is working with the King of Chu to rob us!" If this monarch donates fifty gold, no, 100 gold, no, if this monarch donates less than 500 gold, the king of Chu will definitely think that this monarch is humiliating him, and I am afraid that there will be worries about the extinction of the clan at that time. ”

Yiling Jun felt the same way, got up and said: "The king of Chu is immoral, and Eqi is flattering, so this gentleman will return to Yiling, the prince's wedding, don't participate." ”

Xijun said: "No, if you go back like this, Xiong Huai will inevitably send troops to attack us, in order to avoid Xiong Huai from being angry and angry and sending troops to retaliate, we also need to unite with other feudal monarchs and return together." ”

Yi Lingjun's eyes were cold, and he nodded in understanding.

At this time, Xijun Sima Wanshang rushed in and saluted Xijun: "Your Excellency, there is an urgent report in the palace." ”
