Chapter Forty-Nine: The Head of the Rhino Enters Chu
In the main hall of the Chu Palace, Xiong Huai sat in the position of the king of Chu again, and said to the important ministers of the Chu State below: "Ladies and gentlemen, my Yin Zhaoyang, the commander of the Chu State, has just passed away. ”
The ministers had already received the news on the way here, and when they heard the words of the king of Chu, they immediately bowed: "Please mourn on the king's day." ”
Xiong Huai sighed and said: "Although Ling Yin is dead, but our Chu State will continue, where is the Great Sima Jingli." ”
"The minister is here." Jing Carp came out of the column and fell to the ground.
"With the Great Sima Jingli as the commander Yin, he presides over the political affairs of the Chu State."
"Weichen takes the order, King Xie." Jing carp thank you.
After Xiong Huai arranged for Jing Li to replace Zhaoyang, he asked the new Ling Yin Jing Li: "Ling Yin, now that the post of Sima of Chu is vacant, I don't know who can replace Xianqing." ”
Jing Li replied: "King, the general Qu Kuo has been in battle for a long time and is familiar with military affairs, so he can take over the post of Sima." ”
Xiong Huai nodded when he heard this, and agreed: "According to Ling Yin's words, when the general Qu Kuo returns to the court, he will officially appoint Sima to the position." Before the general returned to the dynasty to take over the post of Sima, Gong Yin Zhaoju was in charge of the defense of the area around Yingdu."
"The minister commands." Zhao Ju responded.
The defense of the Yingdu of Chu has always been in charge of the Great Sima, and sometimes when he encounters a strong Ling Yin, Ling Yin will also take the same position. Ling Yin Zhaoyang once served as a concurrent, and later became seriously ill, so he returned the military power to the great Sima Jingli.
But this kind of situation of making Yin concurrently the commander-in-chief of the Yingdu army is extremely dangerous, Xiong Huai did not give Jing Li a chance, but let Zhao Ju, who had experience in the military, temporarily replace him.
After arranging the positions of Ling Yin and Sima, Xiong Huai continued:
"Before Yin Zhaoyang died, he advised the widow to be careful against the Qin State, and the Chu State will focus on defense for the next period of time, I don't know what the secretaries think."
The relationship between Zhaoyang and Zhang Yi is not a secret in the Chu State, everyone knows it clearly, Zhang Yi has met with Zhaoyang after coming to the Chu State and before leaving the Chu State, and what they talked about, outsiders do not know.
But judging from Zhaoyang's advice before his death, it is definitely not as simple as reminiscing, Zhaoyang must have made a deal with Zhang Yi, and the content of this transaction is most likely related to the land of Ba from Chu to Qin.
Now that Zhaoyang is dead, Zhang Yi will definitely not abide by his deal with Zhaoyang anymore, and Zhaoyang will definitely not be able to fulfill his promise to Zhang Yi.
Therefore, Chu's strategy towards Qin needed to be adjusted.
"Great King, what Yin Zhaoyang said is extremely true, the minister thinks that my Chu State needs to immediately suspend the action of the Great General Qu Kuo to attack the Ba State, transfer the general's men and horses back, and be careful to guard against the Qin State." Jing Li replied.
The last suggestion made by Ling Yin Zhaoyang, and the second suggestion put forward by Ling Yin Jingli, everyone else agreed with face.
"The king, the ministers seconded the proposal."
Xiong Huai said: "Okay, pass on the widow's order, immediately send an order to the general Qu Kuo, suspend the matter of sending the brother of the king of Ba back to China, and immediately go to the Zhu Kingdom Jingcui, join forces with the Jingcui of all countries, and be careful to guard the Qin State." ”
After Xiong Huai finished arranging some important things, he said to the ministers: "The death of Yin Zhaoyang is sad in the hearts of the widows, and the ministers are ordered not to hold court meetings in the next three days to show their condolences." ”
"Yui."
The news of the death of Yin Zhaoyang, the commander of the state of Chu, quickly spread in the territory of the state of Chu, and the nobles of the feudal lords in various places, as well as the county guards of many counties of the state of Chu, rushed to the capital of the state of Chu.
The reason why these county guards and county orders want to return to Chu is to go back to Yingdu to participate in Ling Yin Zhaoyang's funeral, because most of the county guards and county orders of Chu are members of the royal family, and they are all related to each other.
Deng Di of Chu State.
Gongsun Yan was sitting in a carriage of the Zhao clan and was slowly entering the city.
On that day, Gongsun Yan used the golden cicada's plan to get out of the shell, concealed Tian Xu's ears and eyes, and then borrowed the help of Zhao Hua, the envoy of Chu State, and left the Liang of Wei State as soon as possible.
Gongsun Yan understood that he had disappeared, and he couldn't hide it from Tian Yan for too long, so in order to avoid being attacked and killed by Tian Yan, he arranged a lot of suspicious formations to disturb the sight of the pursuers.
In the end, he sat in the car of the envoy of the Chu State and went all the way to Yingdu.
The chase that made Gongsun Yan tremble did not happen, but in order to prevent it, he still tensed his nerves and was a careful vigilantist.
It wasn't until he came to Deng Di, the important land of the Chu State, that he was relieved.
Sitting in the car, Gongsun Yan saw many rangers carrying long swords on their backs, walking casually on the street, and couldn't help but say to himself: "In the future of Chu in a few years, I didn't expect there to be more rangers here." ”
Before he finished speaking, he felt the car stop.
"Zhong Wu, what's going on?" Gongsun Yan asked.
Zhong Wu was a doorman brought out by Gongsun Yan from the Wei State, and he was sitting with the coachman outside at this time, just in case something unexpected happened.
"Your Majesty, it was two rangers who were fighting in the street, and many onlookers were coaxing on the side, blocking the road." Zhong Wu replied.
"It's a ranger brawl again, I remember the last time I came to Chu State, I encountered several brawls in Dengcheng, but I didn't expect it to be the same here, and the brawls continued." Gongsun Yan said with emotion.
"Your Majesty, what should we do, look at this, they can't tell the winner in a short time, and we are very likely to be blocked here all the time."
Gongsun Yan said disapprerovingly: "Don't worry, it's really normal for a fight to happen in Dengcheng, the Chu officials in Dengcheng are very experienced, and they will come over to evacuate the crowd in a while." ”
"Your Majesty, there are too many rangers here." Zhong Wu said worriedly.
"You don't know this, there are not many rangers in the country of Chu, that's a strange thing. The safety of this Deng City is probably not even the girder of the Wei State. Gongsun Yan sighed with emotion: "There will definitely be no assassination of a country's minister here." ”
Gongsun Yan is still angry and indignant about Zhang Shou's murder.
It's a pity that things happened too quickly, and he didn't have time to react at all, so Gongsun Yan still hasn't figured out who is framing him.
Of course, no matter who the real culprit is behind the scenes, Tian Xu Lao Pifu must be an accomplice.
Gongsun Yan knew that not long after he left, Tian Xu called people to surround the mansion.
Just as Gongsun Yan was thinking, a shout came from outside the carriage.
"It's not good, Senior Brother Deng Ling is here, two brothers who are fighting, withdraw quickly."
Hearing this, the two fighting rangers quickly separated, holding their swords against each other, staring at each other.
One of them said: "Shaft, you and I have no victory, but you dare to go outside the city to continue the battle." ”
The other replied disdainfully, "Nayon is afraid of you?" Let's go outside the city and continue the battle. ”
The onlookers coaxed: "Go, go, go, go outside the city and continue to fight, whoever doesn't go is the grandson." ”
"Let's go." The two men who were fighting glared at each other and walked out of the city together.
Many rangers followed the two, calling friends in groups to go outside the city to see the excitement.
Suddenly, for some reason, when the group of rangers passed by Gongsun Yan's carriage, one of the horses let out a neighing in vain, raised its front hooves off the ground, and then quickly ran forward.
The other horse was led and ran forward.
"Oh no, the horse is frightened." Someone shouted.
