Seven days later.

Just when most of the feudal monarchs rushed to Shouchun one after another, just when the situation in Shouying was becoming more and more tense, on this day, the assassin made Deng Lingguang walk into the palace with a heavy face.

"The king, the minister is guilty!" Deng Lingguang came to Xiong Huai and pleaded with grief: "King, the spies of Qi have come to report... Seven days ago, the son of a rat was in..."

Xiong Huai saw that Deng Lingguang's face changed when he reported, and even swallowed, and suddenly felt uneasy in his heart, and then looked at Deng Lingguang and asked, "What's the matter, what's wrong with the rat?" ”

"King!" Deng Lingguang leaned his head to the ground and cried sadly: "The king, the prince was assassinated outside the palace of Qi Guoji's school, and he was killed on the spot... Dead..."

Deng Lingguang lowered his head, and the corners of his mouth moved slightly, but the matter of Gongzi Zirat's body being burned did not say anything after all.

"What? Assassinated? He's dead? When Xiong Huai heard this, his heart hurt sharply, his head was dizzy, his body shook slightly, and then his nose was sore, his eyes were rising, and his tears couldn't be controlled.

"Rats! The widow's son rat was assassinated? ”

At this time, Deng Lingguang raised his head and saw the King of Chu crying, his face full of sadness, tears gushing like a spring, his heart was anxious, and he hurriedly persuaded: "King Day mourning, please take care of your body." ”

"Condolences?" Xiong Huai cried bitterly: "How do you let the widow mourn, this is the widow's son who died!" ”

When Deng Lingguang heard this, he bowed to the ground again: "The minister is terrified." ”

After a long period of effort, Xiong Huai restrained his sadness and asked with a grim face, "Xianqing, what's the matter?" How could Zi Rat be assassinated, he is a proton, even if the widow sends troops to attack Qi, the Qi State may not kill him, now, the widow has not turned his face with the Qi State, how could he die in the Qi State?

No..."

Xiong Huai suddenly stared at Deng Lingguang, and the murderous intent flashed in his eyes: "If it is an assassination, it has nothing to do with the Qi State, and the biggest possibility is that it is a grudge, but the widow has never heard you say that the rat has a grudge with people in the Qi State!" ”

"King Mingjian!" Deng Lingguang immediately responded: "The minister did not protect the prince well, and he should die to thank the king, but the minister never reported it to the king."

Besides, Gongzi Zirat is hostage in Qi, with the strength of Chu State, it is too late for Qi State and Qi people to tie up Gongzi, so how can they have a grudge with Gongzi? ”

When Xiong Huai heard this, he shouted angrily: "Since it is not a grudge and vendetta, then you tell the widow that he is a mere proton for no reason, why would someone suddenly want to assassinate him?" ”

"This..."

Xiong Huai saw that Deng Lingguang couldn't say a reason, and he was even more furious: "The widow handed over Zhibeiya to you, and also entrusted Zirat and Ziniu to you, how did you do things for the widow?" You don't even know how he died? ”

Deng Lingguang was filled with grief: "The minister is guilty of capital crimes." ”

···

Just when Xiong Huai was furious, a waiter walked in tremblingly: "Great King, Gong Yudan, the envoy of Qi State, is visiting and is asking to see him outside the palace." ”

As soon as Xiong Huai heard the envoy of Qi State, he was immediately angry, and said murderously: "Get out, let him go, the widow won't see him." ”

After speaking, Xiong Huai looked at Deng Lingguang who was bowing down in front again, forcibly pressed it to obtain, and said angrily: "Check, find out to the widow, how did the rat die, who killed it, no matter who it was, the widow will make him pay." ”

"Yui." Deng Lingguang responded, and then left quickly.

After Deng Lingguang left, Xiong Huai wanted to return to the harem, but he stood up, and before he could retreat, he remembered Mrs. Qin, the mother of Gongzi Mouse.

"Woohoo lament, that day, because the country was not very safe, the widow forcibly let the child rat go to the country of Qi to take refuge in the strong opposition of the mother of the rat.

But... I never arrived, Zi Rat unfortunately died in Qi country, this... How do I tell his mother? ”

With that, Xiong Huai let out a lament, and tears flowed down again.

After a pause, Xiong Huai's eyes flashed fiercely: "The widow's son died in the Qi country, so don't want to live alone with the son of the king of Qi." ”

"Come on, immediately arrest the prince of Qi State, the widow will take a tooth for a tooth, blood for a blood, and avenge the rat."

"Yui."

Soon, another waiter walked in: "King, Gong Yudan, the envoy of Qi State, wrote a book, saying that there is a truth in the letter, please take a look at it." ”

Xiong Huai was stunned for a moment, and then immediately responded: "Quick, come up." ”

"Yui."

Then, Xiong Huai took the letter and looked at it, and was stunned: "Zhao Guo? Yan Guo? ”

Seeing this, Xiong Huai gradually calmed down, then groaned for a while, and said hatefully: "Whether it is the Zhao Kingdom, the Yan Kingdom, or the Qi Kingdom, it doesn't matter.

The important thing is that this is an opportunity, and the opportunity to warze has come.

Therefore, the rat can only be killed by Qi State, and the purpose is to blame Yan and Zhao! ”

Thinking about it, Xiong Huai's face immediately surged with extreme anger, and then he shouted: "Spread the edict to the ministers, tomorrow the widow will hold a temporary court meeting, let the ministers and kings enter the palace on time, and the widow will send troops to avenge the prince and the rat!" ”

At the same time, the prince's mansion.

Long Shujun reported to the crown prince: "The prince, the minister has successfully assassinated Gongzi Rat and burned the letter written to Gongzi Rat in the name of the prince on the spot. ”

When the prince heard this, his heart was relieved, and then he lamented: "Alas~~ I'm sorry for the rat!" ”

Long Shujun arched his hand and said: "The prince is benevolent! ”

Just as the prince was talking to Long Shujun, a doorman reported outside the hall: "Prince, the king is in a hurry, so that the ministers have already rushed to Shouchun's feudal monarch to enter the palace tomorrow to discuss matters, it is said that the prince was assassinated in the Qi country, and the king was furious and wanted to raise troops to attack Qi." ”

"It's done!" When the prince heard this, his face was overjoyed.

On the other side, the ministers and nobles in Shouchun City heard that Gongzi Rat had been assassinated in the Qi Kingdom, which angered the King of Chu and summoned his ministers to prepare to attack Qi.

When the ministers heard this, they all sighed.

Gan Mao: "What an eventful season! ”

Fan Huan: "My family and country are unlucky! ”

Tian Wen: "That's great! ”

Changer: "It's a failure!" ”

Old-fashioned: "God help me!" ”

Fengjun from all over the country: "When it's okay, we are the moths of the country, and when there is something, they think of us, we are the pillars of the country, it's so much..."

Just as the ministers were discussing, on the other side, the proton prince Ji of Qi who got the news in advance had already fled before the soldiers of Chu captured him, but because Chu knew that Beiya had too many spies in Shouying, Gongzi Ji fled for less than an hour, and was captured by Zhibeiya spies less than twenty miles east of Shouchun City.

Then, after the furious Xiong Huai learned that Zhibeiya had captured Gongzi Ji outside the city, he immediately ordered Gongzi Ji to be publicly executed in Shouchun City to show that Chu wanted to break with Qi.

On the same day, Gongzi Ji was beheaded in the downtown of Shouchun City for public display.

When the news spread, the people in the entire Shouchun City were in an uproar.

Because of this moment, everyone knew that the battle of Qichu was inevitable.

Just as the people in the entire Shouchun City began to prepare for war, Gong Yudan, the envoy of Qi State, quietly returned to Qi State with Gongzi Ji's body.
