The capital of Yingdu of Chu.

At this time, Xiong Huai, the king of Chu, was in the harem tasting wine with Qu Yuan and Zheng Sleeve, and chanting poems against each other.

I only heard Qu Yuan read first:

"Emperor Jiashu, orange is obedient, ordered not to move, and born in the south ......!"

At this time, the king of Chu said:

"Lingjun, don't always come to this orange song, the widow listens to it and his head hurts, let's have a new one!"

Next to him, Zheng Sleeve also said with a smile:

"Lord Zuo, this orange ode to the concubine is also numb in my ears when I hear it!"

Qu Yuan said:

"Okay, since the king and the concubine are tired of hearing it, then Lingjun will improvise a redo in front of the king and the concubine!"

After a while, Qu Yuan got up:

"The spring flowers are blooming, moving in the wind, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, and they are left ...... for eternity!"

Suddenly, at this time, a palace maid hurriedly came over and said to the king of Chu:

"King, Mr. Ru'er has returned to Yingdu again, and said that he has something important to come to see you, the king!"

The King of Chu turned his eyes to Qu Yuan:

"Lingjun, Ru'er has been away from our Chu country for more than a month, and he suddenly came back at this time, and he wants to see the widow, what do you think?"

Qu Yuan replied:

"Since Mr. Ru'er has worked tirelessly to return to Chu to see you, the Maharaja, it must be the intention of King Wei, let's go and meet Mr. Ru'er together!"

Chu King says:

"Good!"

got up to leave with Qu Yuan.

At this time, Zheng Sleeve next to him was unhappy, and suddenly dropped the wine glass on the table, and complained to the king of Chu:

"King, it's rare for you to accompany someone else and Lord Zuo to drink and chant poetry here, and now you left someone behind because you want to see a Wei envoy, you just didn't put people in your heart, you must love Nanhou the most!"

Saying that, as he spoke, Zheng Sleeve cried directly.

The king of Chu was in a dilemma at this time, and he didn't know what to do for a while, so he had to come over and comfort Concubine Zheng for the time being.

At this time, Zheng Sleeve wiped away his tears, glanced at Qu Yuan on the side, and said to the King of Chu:

"The king, if you have important state affairs, it doesn't hurt, let Lord Zuo accompany the concubine here, the concubine has always been a little puzzled by Lord Zuo's poems, so I have always wanted to find a time to consult with Lord Zuo, I don't know what you think, King?"

The king of Chu glanced at Qu Yuan and said to him:

"Lingjun, this Wei envoy is like an ear, the widow will call Zhaoyang later, you first accompany the widow here, the widow will go back, go back!"

Not long after the king of Chu left, Qu Yuan stood in place very embarrassed at this time, not knowing what to do, and then looked at Qu Yuan's appearance and covered his mouth and snickered, and then said:

"Lord Zuo, why do you feel so alienated from me? You won't be like that in the future! ”

Qu Yuan replied:

"In the past, Lingjun was not afraid of heaven and earth, but now Lingjun just wants to be at ease and assist by the Maharaja's side, it is enough, and you are the concubine of the Maharaja, there is no difference between us!"

Zheng Sleeve stood up and approached Qu Yuan:

"Lord Zuotu, there is no difference between us as you said just now, don't be so restrained, the king is now going to the front hall to be busy with state affairs, and there are only me and Lord Zuo in this garden!"

As he spoke, he grabbed Qu Yuan's arm, and slowly leaned his head towards Qu Yuan's shoulder.

Qu Yuan couldn't bear it, so he directly pushed away Zheng Sleeve, and said righteously:

"Concubine Zheng, you are the concubine of the Great Prince, I hope you will be more respectful!"

Zheng Sleeve was also annoyed by Qu Yuan's actions, pointed at Qu Yuan's nose and said angrily:

"Okay, you don't know how to lift Mi Yuan, let me tell you, don't think that you are now favored by the king, just because you can write a few poems and books, let me tell you, without my Zheng sleeve to say good things to the king, you Qu Yuan would have been degraded by the king to another country, don't pretend to be a sage here!"

Qu Yuan also directly replied to Zheng Sleeve:

"What are you? You and Qin Xiang Zhang Yi are so stubborn, don't think I don't know, in the days when Zhang Yi came to deceive our Chu State, I saw with my own eyes that you and Qin Xiang Zhang Yi did that kind of dirty thing! ”

Zheng Sleeve smiled lightly:

"Really? Don't you want to frame me in front of the king, I tell you, the king won't believe what you say at all, and didn't the king also send someone to check that time? Could it be that I found out that I'm Zheng Sleeve sorry for the king? I tell you, fight me, you're not my opponent yet! ”

After speaking, Zheng Sleeve also brushed his sleeves away violently.

The king of Chu summoned Zhaoyang and met Ru Er in the palace hall together.

After making a salute, the king of Chu asked him:

"I don't know if you are in such a hurry to return to our Chu State again, what important things do you have to convey for your king?"

As the ear echoes:

"It's not big or big, it's not small!"

Zhaoyang next to him was a little anxious:

"Doctor Ru'er, don't go around in circles, just tell me and our lord to hear it, and see what it is!"

Ru Er took out a silk book from his sleeve and handed it to Zhaoyang first, and after Zhaoyang glanced at it, he handed it to the King of Chu.

After reading the contents of the book, the king of Chu asked:

"Your King Wei is now going to follow his predecessor, King Hui, and hold a meeting of princes?"

As the ear echoes:

"Yes, after all, it is the first time for our king to hold this kind of alliance, so naturally I want to invite you, King of Chu, to participate in it too!"

On the side, Zhaoyang asked:

"I wonder which allies your country invited to participate in this Quwo Alliance?"

As the ear answered:

"In addition to Zhou Tianzi, who witnessed the ceremony, our king invited a total of ten princes and countries of the Central Plains to participate in the Quwo Alliance, but without hiding it from the King and Zhaogong, only the six countries that can be sure to go to the alliance are Qin, Korea, Zhao, Song, Lu, and Yue!"

Chaoyang smiled lightly at this time:

"Doctor Ru'er, why did your monarch invite some donkey-headed horses to the country of the horse pen this time?"

Ru'er was a little puzzled and asked:

"I don't know what you mean by Zhao Gong, the country of donkey heads and horse pens?"

Zhaoyang replied:

"The Qin State has always been known as the country of tigers and wolves, but now isn't it also beaten into a stuffy donkey by your country and our Chu State? The lord of Korea, King Han, has been ruling the country in a foolish way in recent years, and he has been deaf and deaf, and he will be defeated every time Qin, and he has repeatedly lost his country, what does this have to do with the stupid donkey, is it wrong to say that it is the head of a donkey? ”

Ru Er nodded:

"What you said is very true, Zhaogong!"

Zhaoyang continued:

"Since the succession to the throne of Wujiang, this Yue country has not thought about governing the country, and has always relied on his wisdom to provoke the relationship between the countries and my Chu country for its own benefit, but unfortunately no one is willing to take care of it, what is the difference between such an ignorant king and the horse pen?"

The King of Chu also said with a smile on the side:

"Isn't it? You Wei Guo are looking for the donkey head and horse pen alliance that our Zhao Gong said, this kind of alliance is too interesting, right? ”

Ru Er said at this time:

"This is not what our king is looking for, and the kings of these countries are also willing to go to the alliance because they fancy our Wei State!"

Zhaoyang couldn't help but say:

"According to your intentions, Doctor Ru'er, our Chu State looks down on you as a public bridge, so we are unwilling to go to the Huimeng?"

Ru Er continued:

"King of Chu, Duke Zhao, don't forget, this time the King of Qin and the King of Han, as well as the King of Yue, who are willing to go to the Quwo Alliance, are all the great enemies of your Chu State, if the King of Qin and the King of Han and the King of Yue persuade the king of my family to attack your Chu State, then will your Chu State still have a chance of winning against the four countries of Qin, Han, Wei, and Yue at the same time?"

After hearing the words, Zhaoyang said to the king of Chu:

"Maharaja, this matter is indeed unfavorable to my Chu State, and it is not unreasonable for Doctor Ru'er to remind you!"

The king of Chu said with some disdain:

"Could it be that Zhaogong, you want the widow to participate in the alliance of this donkey-headed horse pen?"

Zhaoyang's expression was a little heavy:

"Maharaja, this matter is indeed worth discussing carefully, otherwise the four countries will unite, and our Chu State will not be able to resist it!"

After saying this, Zhaoyang said to Ru Er again:

"Doctor Ru'er, then you can trouble you, you wait in our Chu country for a few days, after I have made a decision with the prince to go or not, I will definitely inform you in time!"

After thanking King Chu and Zhaoyang, Ru Er left the palace and waited.

Quwo of Wei, at this time, Wei Hei had already learned the attitude of the princes towards the Quwo alliance held by Wei, so he began to make various preparations in advance, waiting for the date of the alliance to come.

It was night, Wei Si was about to fall asleep, and suddenly there was a noise outside the door, Wei Si sat up directly in shock, and asked directly in the direction of the door:

"What's going on? What the hell is going on? ”

Zhang Xiao hurriedly ran in from outside the door, holding a burden in his hand, and said to Wei Si:

"King, someone just secretly threw this burden in, but I don't know what is hidden in this baggage, so I will take it in first and show it to you, King!"

Wei Si hurriedly said:

"Then you open it first, open it and see what it is, right?"

Zhang Xiao gently unwrapped the baggage, there was actually a wooden box inlaid with gold leaf, Wei Si came over and looked at the wooden box, and said to Zhang Xiao:

"It seems that there must be something unusual in this, hurry up and open it, be careful!"

Zhang Xiao then opened the box, revealing a rare, extremely wide and thick jade wall. ”

Wei Si hurriedly walked over, took the jade wall and flipped it to the left and looked at it again, and suddenly found the two of them in a line of handwriting.

Wei Si was taken aback at this time:

"This ...... This...... Isn't this the world-famous piece of He's Bi? ”

Zhang Xiao was also attracted by the preciousness of this jade wall:

"King, this must be the piece of Hebi lost by the Chu State!"

Wei Si then said:

"Yes, I just don't know who will take He's Bi to give it to the widow!"

Then I pondered for a while, and suddenly remembered a person:

"Could it be that Zheng Fu sent someone to send it?"

But he and Zheng Fu haven't had any contact for a long time since they separated from the wild king!

said to Zhang Xiao:

"Go and see if the lights in Dr. Chen's house are out, if you haven't slept yet, help the widow summon him!"

Zhang Xiao also went out to find Chen Zhen.

Wei Si continued to ponder at this time:

"Isn't this Heshi Bi in Hayangjun's house in South Korea? How did you come to this Quwo? This person took advantage of the fact that the Quwo Alliance was about to start, and gave the Heshi Bi to the widows, did he mean to destroy the Widow Alliance?

Wei Si called the guards in and angrily reprimanded the guards for not fulfilling their responsibilities and letting the thieves enter and leave at will, and then by candlelight, he took this huge piece of Heshi Bi and slowly admired it, after all, this Heshi Bi is a famous thing in the world, and naturally everyone got it.

But Wei Si was hesitating again, if such a good piece of jade was really returned to the King of Chu, was it necessary? And now it is the Huimeng presided over by his own Wei State, if the King of Chu really comes to the Huimeng, what will he do when he sees this piece of Heshi Bi?
