With the death of Wuhou Jixin, the killing of Wu Cheng stopped, but the killing of Wu Di did not stop.

In addition to Wu Land, there were also a small number of nobles who were arrested, and Zhao Ju randomly selected half of them according to the list given to him by the King of Chu, and after arresting them, he directly executed them in the local area.

As the butcher's knife of the Chu army swung throughout Wu Land, a terrifying aura instantly spread from Wu City to the entire Wu Land.

It wasn't until the Chu army returned to Wucheng after killing people and exterminating the clan, and it wasn't until half a month later that the Chu army still didn't raise a butcher's knife against other captured nobles, and it wasn't until the Chu army still didn't arrest people again, and half a month later, the terrifying atmosphere in Wucheng and even Wu was alleviated.

In the past half a month, although Xiong Huai has lived in the palace and has not inspected all parts of Wucheng, he still feels the tense and fearful atmosphere that permeates the entire Wucheng.

Of course, this situation is still expected by Xiong Huai.

What Xiong Huai is worried about is whether someone will take the opportunity to walk in Wu to make terrorist remarks and incite the people to confront the Chu army. In addition, there are those nobles and celebrities who have been released, whether they are secretly acting.

Therefore, after the Chu army was killed, Xiong Huai asked Chen Zhen to closely monitor all parts of Wu and strictly investigate those with bad intentions.

At this time, half a month passed, and after the Chu army that went to kill people in various places returned to Wucheng one after another, the monarchs and ministers of Chu gathered in Wucheng Palace again.

The monarch and the ministers were opposed, and Zhao Ju took the lead and said: "The king, regarding this assassination case, the ministers have arrested a total of thirty-three nobles, including twenty-two Yue people and eleven Wu people. There are a total of twenty-one families involved with the Lu brothers and Gongzi Yu, most of them are Yue people from Wu Land, and the minister has exterminated all of them, and the rest have not been implicated in the assassination case, and the minister has also asked the sailor to transport them to Dongting to reclaim the wasteland. ”

Zhao Chang continued: "Great King, the minister has been ordered to summon all parts of Dongting, so that the county Yin of each country can prepare to receive this group of prisoners. ”

Xiong Huai nodded, he already knew the situation of these thirty-three families, and twenty-six of them did not show any intention of being close to the Chu State before, and they were the targets of Jiangdong this time. The other seven families are people who have taken refuge in the Chu State on the surface, but in fact they have different hearts, and they are involved in the Lu brothers in this assassination case.

If there was no assassination case, it would be fine, but after the assassination case, they were exposed again, and Xiong Huai naturally took the opportunity to catch them all.

Moreover, involved in the major case of assassinating the king of Chu, these people are innocent.

Thinking about it, Xiong Huai opened his mouth and said: "Okay, after this killing, the nobles of Wu Land have lost nearly half, and they are already very angry. At this moment, even if there is still a rebellion of the Yue Kingdom hidden in it, it is already weak. ”

Saying that, Xiong Huai looked at Chen Zhen and said, "Chen Qing, now it has been half a month since the widow ordered the rebellion of Wu Di, I don't know what the attitude of the people of Wu Di is towards this?" ”

Chen Zhen replied: "Back to the king, when the Chu army killed the rebellion half a month ago, the people of Wu were silent, lest they anger the king and implicate them. However, in recent days, ordinary people have seen that the people killed by the Chu army are all nobles, and there is no ordinary people, so they have settled down.

After the king let Ji Hao inherit the throne of Marquis Wu and gave Marquis Wu Ji Xin a ritual vessel, the nobles of Wu no longer panicked. Similarly, those nobles, officials, and celebrities who were released from the palace saw that the king had not arrested anyone again in the past half a month, nor had he killed again, and their mood had stabilized. ”

Speaking of this, Chen Zhen had some hesitation on his face: "The minister was ordered to supervise the place, and in the past half a month, the entire Wu land has been calm, and there have been rumors that someone has deliberately walked. ”

Zhao Ju said calmly: "This is normal, the nobles of Wu are still gathered in Wucheng, and Jiangdong is remote, and it is difficult to communicate with other countries. Therefore, the nobles of Wu Land naturally did not dare to act rashly at this cusp, and the spies of other countries, I am afraid that they have not yet received orders from their respective countries, so they will naturally not rush forward. ”

Hearing this, Xiong Huai nodded thoughtfully: "What Zhu Guo said is reasonable, so the widow has to continue to sit in Wu City for a period of time to deter Wu Land." ”

"The king is wise."

Xiong Huai smiled slightly, and then set his eyes on Yuedi in the south.

There, Tang Mo should have done it by now.

He, the king of Chu, should still stay in Wucheng now, and only wait for Yuedi to be cleansed before he can leave for Yuedi to appease the people of Yuedi.

When Zhao Ju and the others saw that the King of Chu suddenly set his eyes on the south, they knew it in their hearts and then set their eyes on the south.

In Yuedi, the news that Gongziyu assassinated the King of Chu when the King of Chu held a banquet reached Yuedi, and the people of the entire Yuedi were in an uproar.

Different from the frightened and dazed resentment of the people of Wudi, most of the people of Yue were overjoyed in their hearts, lamenting that Gongzi Yu was not well prepared, and finally failed to kill the king of Chu.

While feeling sorry in his heart, he also secretly applauded Gongziyu in his heart.

Yue Shangyu City, in a mansion.

At this time, Xia Jue, a remnant of the Yue Kingdom, bowed to Lu Fang and said: "Xiangguo is clever, and with a little trickery, he borrowed the hand of the King of Chu to get rid of Ji Xin Zhangyi and others who betrayed the lord and sought glory, and even the despicable and shameless Zhaohua. ”

Saying that, Xia Jue sighed and said: "It's a pity that Gongzi Yuxing's assassination was not successful, otherwise as soon as the king of Chu dies, the country of Chu will definitely be in chaos, and when the countries attack, that is the opportunity for my Yue country to recover!" ”

Lu Fang shook his head and said: "I made a mistake, and I went down to arouse Gongziyu's determination to die, I originally thought that it was to anger the King of Chu and destroy the King of Chu's move to buy people's hearts." I never thought that Gongziyu would be able to do this step and almost assassinate the King of Chu. Knowing this, he should have brought poison to Gongziyu that day, if the assassin's hairpin was stained with poison, how could the king of Chu be lucky. ”

Xia Jue nodded and said, "It's a pity." Also, not long ago, when I heard Xiangguo's strategy, I saw that Gongziyu didn't do it for a long time, and I thought that Gongziyu was greedy for life and afraid of death, so he didn't dare to make a move to the king of Chu, but Gongziyu still had this kind of means, and he was worthy of being the heir of the first king! ”

At this time, Lu Lang saw that Lu Fang and Xia Jue both sighed that the King of Chu had escaped, and regretted that Gongziyu had not succeeded, so he couldn't help but say in an indifferent tone: "Brother, although Gongziyu's assassination failed, I heard that Gongziyu's assassin was not originally aimed at the King of Chu, but planned to assassinate the first king."

It's not a pity to die like this kind of rebellious ministers and thieves, but it's a pity that the 1,500-year-old foundation of my Yue Kingdom was cut off from the hands of Gongzi Yu. ”

Xia Jue was stunned for a moment, and then remembered what Gongziyu had done, and his face turned slightly cold.

When Lu Ban heard this, he shook his head and smiled: "Brother Xian's words are wrong, although Gongziyu is the culprit of the country, but now that my Yue country is dead, my strength is not as good as before, and it is time to unite all forces." Therefore, even Gongziyu, a person hated by all the Yue people, as long as he can contribute to the restoration of the Yue country, he is also a hero of my Yue country.

Gongziyu almost stabbed the King of Chu to death, and for this reason, he deserves our admiration and is vigorously promoted among all the Yue people. ”

"This..." Lu Lang still has a problem on his face.

Lu Bin smiled and said: "Brother Xian, let me ask, even Gongzi Yu, the culprit of the fallen country, can gain the understanding of the Yue people and become a hero of the Yue people after assassinating the queen of Chu." In this way, after all the Yue people heard about it, not to mention those who were forced to take refuge in the Chu State, even those Yue people who surrendered to the wind and took the initiative to surrender, they would also have peace in their hearts.

Because they know that as long as they can contribute to the country when the country is restored, they will gain the understanding of the people and become the heroes of the country, instead of being liquidated afterwards. In this way, if the time is ripe, all the Yue people can take action for the restoration of the Yue country, and my Yue Guo will not be restored to the country. ”

Lu Lang was stunned for a moment, and said stupidly: "What my brother said is true. ”

Xia Jue also sighed: "It's a pity, the king ascended the throne in Huiji that day, if the money belly did not force the position of the Xiangguo at that time, if the king could appoint the Xiangguo as the Xiangguo, instead of the waste of the Qian belly who was ambitious and talented to be the Xiangguo, how could I perish so quickly." ”

When Lu Fang heard this, he thought of all the things in Huiji City, and suddenly sighed.
