Chapter Seventy-Two: Shocked Zhuangzi

Xiong Huai asked: "Queen, who made you angry, the widow must be the master for you." โ€

When Nanhou heard this, she raised her head, looked at Xiong Huai with beads in her eyes and said, "The king, it's Zhuang Zhou Zhuang Zixiu." โ€

Xiong Huai heard that it was a man's name, and he was still a little familiar, so he wondered: "Queen, who is this Zhuangzi Xiu, how did he bully you, and why did the queen intersect with him?" โ€

Nanhou said fiercely: "The king, he bullied not the concubine, but the prince. โ€

"Prince?" Xiong Huai was stunned when he heard this, his heart was extremely complicated for this prince, who had rarely met and had little contact.

Nanhou nodded and said, "Great King, it was the crown prince who was bullied by Zhuang Zhou. โ€

Xiong Huai was surprised: "Why was the prince bullied?" โ€

When Xiong Huai heard that the crown prince was being bullied in the Chu State, his first reaction was not to believe it.

The crown prince doesn't live in the harem now, he was put outside the palace by his predecessor three years ago, and he has a vote of guards to protect him, how can he be bullied, it's good if he doesn't bully others.

When the queen saw that the king of Chu did not believe it, she immediately ordered her side: "Go, bring the prince over." โ€

Soon, a man dressed in tattered brocade clothes, with a blue nose and swollen face, walked in front of Xiong Huai, and bowed tremblingly: "My son and son visit my father." โ€

This is the prince of Chu State.

Xiong Huai was stunned when he saw this.

, is this a bitter trick, the prince was beaten and not killed, this is really too sensational?

But if you think about it carefully, it is impossible for the bitter meat trick to happen, not to mention that the prince, who has always been well-dressed and well-fed, can't stand the pain of being beaten, and the prince was beaten such a serious thing, you can know it at a check.

This Zhuang Zhou is so violent, he dares to beat the prince of Chu in the capital of Chu State, it is really...

Xiong Huai was stunned for a while before he said, "Prince, what's going on?" โ€

Xiong Huai glanced at Xiong Huai cautiously, and stammered: "Father, son, I... I..."

This kind of fight is lost, and then the words of suing the parents are not spoken.

The crown prince sighed horizontally and bowed down: "Father, the son is incompetent, and he has embarrassed his father." โ€

Xiong Huai said coldly when he heard this: "Make the words clear, what is going on, how did you become like this." The crown prince of my Chu State was not bullied in vain, but dared to be angry and did not dare to speak. โ€

"And what about your guards and friends? Could it be that they were all beaten by Zhuang Zhou? โ€

When the prince heard Xiong Huai's anger, he immediately explained: "Father, the son heard that Zhuang Zhou had arrived in Yingdu, and he was angry that he was disrespectful to the former king, so he brought people to him to theorize, and the result..."

Xiong Huai heard the prince say that he was looking for someone to theorize, but he was beaten like this, and he laughed: "What, being beaten like this, are you arguing with your fists?" Also, Zhuang Zhou was disrespectful to the previous king, why hadn't anyone heard of this? โ€

When Xiong Huai said this, he suddenly remembered who Zhuang Zhou was.

This Zhuang Zhou is not someone else, or collectively known as the Zhuangzi in the old village, and the descendants are called Laozi Zhuangzi, just now Xiong Huai suddenly heard the full name of the Zhuangzi, and did not react for a while.

As for the disrespect that Zhuangzi said just now, that is an internal statement of the royal family, referring to an incident between King Chuwei and Zhuangzi in the past.

At that time, King Chu Wei heard that Zhuangzi in the Song Kingdom was virtuous, so he sent two doctors to ask Zhuangzi to go out of the mountain, and found Zhuangzi fishing in Pushui.

After finding Zhuangzi, he went to the two doctors of Zhuangzi and said, "The king of Chu heard that Mr. is virtuous and is willing to entrust state affairs to Mr. โ€

Zhuangzi took the fishing rod and did not look back at them, and said, "I heard that there is a divine turtle in the state of Chu, which has been dead for three thousand years, and the first king wrapped it in brocade and put it in a bamboo box and treasured it in the hall of the temple. Would this turtle rather die and leave its bones for people to cherish, or would it rather live and wag its tail in the mud? โ€

The two doctors said, "I'd rather live and wag my tail in the mud." โ€

Zhuangzi said, "Please go back!" I'm going to wag my tail in the mud. โ€

After this incident spread within the state of Chu, many members of the royal family believed that Zhuangzi did not know how to lift up, which humiliated King Chu Wei.

As soon as the queen saw that the king of Chu was angry, she immediately walked to the prince Heng, protected the prince like a mother beast protecting a calf, and a pair of phoenix eyes were round, and retorted Xiong Huai: "Why is the king so forgetful, isn't Zhuangzi's disrespectful words to the previous king come from the mouth of the king?" โ€

"If it weren't for the fact that the king always said how Zhuang Zhou was disrespectful to the first king in the past, how to humiliate the first king, how could the prince find Zhuang Zhou's theory today!"

Xiong Huai was reminded by the Southern Queen, and suddenly remembered that there really seemed to be such a thing, if it wasn't for the talk of his predecessor, how could the prince, who was still in infancy at the time, know about it.

Thinking of this, Xiong Huai's face suddenly stiffened, glanced at both sides, and saw that everyone was all bowing their heads, and couldn't help but sneer: "Queen, the widow has just been tired from going to court, why don't we eat together?" I'm thinking about how to deal with this! โ€

Xiong Huai learned that the crown prince was influenced by his predecessor, and immediately diverted the topic.

As for this kind of thing of going to Zhuangzi to settle accounts, it is better to be exempted.

Zhuangzi is too famous in the Chu State, this kind of thing is obviously a loss, if the crown prince of the Chu State loses and then the King of Chu goes again, no matter what the result is, it will be a shame and a big loss.

What's more important is that Zhuangzi's mouth is very powerful, this is a guy who dares to spray anyone.

Now there are two trolls in the world, one of them is Mencius and the other is Zhuangzi.

Mencius is good at spraying people now, whether it is the people of the hundred schools of thought, or the monarchs that Mencius has visited, as long as they can't see it, they have all been sprayed by Mencius.

The most famous sentence is that Mencius said that when he was still the crown prince, King Wei Xiang, but after one meeting, Mencius just came out of King Wei Xiang and said a comment to the others: King Wei Xiang did not look like a monarch from afar, and when he approached him, he could not see anything to awe him.

King Wei Xiang: "ยทยทยท"

Zhuangzi was very famous in the state of Chu, otherwise King Chu Wei would not have sent someone to invite him.

If Mencius was eloquent, then Zhuangzi was good at telling stories in fables.

But when Zhuangzi debated, even Keiko, one of the founders of the famous family who was good at debate, was not Zhuangzi's opponent.

And Zhuangzi is not only good at spraying people now, but also good at spraying the ancients, from Confucius to Yao Shun, all of them have been sprayed by Zhuangzi.

In the face of such a Zhuangzi, the prince Jian led people to find him to theorize, and the result can be imagined.

As for Xiong Huai, he found someone to reason with Zhuangzi.

After thinking about it, even Qu Yuanshang, who is good at rhetoric, may not be Zhuangzi's opponent.

This kind of victory has no good name, and if you lose and be humiliated, forget it.

Nanhou was stunned when she heard this, and said, "Why does the king care about him?" โ€

โ€œยทยทยทโ€ Xiong Huai was speechless.

"Prince, tell me, why did you go to Zhuangzi to debate, and it turned out to be like this? Could it be that Zhuangzi beat it? "Xiong Huai couldn't get south, so he had to find Xiong Heng.

Xiong Heng shook his head and said, "Back to my father, I wasn't beaten by Zhuang Zhou." โ€

"When we were debating with Zhuang Zhou, we met a group of passing rangers, and the result was that the sons..." The prince sneered.

"And then the Rangers were righteous?" Xiong Huai glanced at the prince, and he didn't have a good air.

It must have been defeated by Zhuangzi in the debate, and then he was angry and planned to stage a full martial arts, but he happened to be discovered by a group of rangers and beaten.

It's just a bit too coincidental...
