Chapter 868: Huang Xie's Dilemma (First Update)

"The state of Chu is finished."

After hearing Mao Sui's return, Zhao Dan breathed a sigh of relief and said to the ministers of Zhao State in front of him.

For Zhao Dan's judgment, all the ministers of Zhao State expressed their approval.

Although Chu Wangyuan was a middle-of-the-road monarch, at least when Chu Wangyuan was still alive, the political situation in Chu was very stable.

Chu Wangyuan-Huang Xie-Jingyang, the triumvirate system is very stable, and it accompanies almost the entire ruling process of Chu Wangyuan.

It is also under the strong support of this triumvirate system that although the state of Chu has been defeated repeatedly, it has never been on the verge of collapse.

But with the death of Chu Wangyuan, this very stable triumvirate system has lost its most important link.

The ascension of the new king, the game between the two queen mothers, and the rise of Li Yuan all brought new uncertainties to the state of Chu.

"Predictably." Zhao Dan said: "In the future, the widow feels that the Chu State should fall into infighting. ”

Pingyuan Jun Zhao Sheng thought for a while and said, "Judging from this reward, Huang Xie is the biggest loser, I'm afraid that the front line of the Chu army will usher in great changes." ”

Zhao Sheng's words are not untargeted, Li Yuan has been promoted, Jingyang has been promoted, but what about Huang Xie? Huang Xie had nothing.

You must know that Huang Xie is now the helmsman of the entire Chu State army, and in terms of normal logic, although Huang Xie is indeed a supreme minister, the meaning of adding more fiefs and rewarding treasures is always right? After all, Huang Xie led the army in the front, and he still brought most of the troops of the Chu State, so whoever will be the king must consider Huang Xie's feelings.

None of that, however.

"I'm afraid Huang Xie will be treated as an outcast." Yu Xin said in a deep voice.

Zhao Dan said with a smile: "No matter what Huang Xie's situation is, as long as there is civil unrest in Chu, then it is something that the widow wants to see!" Zheng Qing, Ru Daxing will cooperate with Hu Yiwei these days to see if he can come up with a specific plan, and the widow will review it personally! ”

As the saying goes, take advantage of your illness to kill you.

Since the current Chu State has been in chaos, it would be too stupid if the Zhao State did not make full use of it.

And this kind of situation where several factions of Chu State are fighting each other is actually the thing that Zhao Dan is most happy to see, as long as it is operated properly, then Zhao Dan and Zhao Guo can make Chu State fall into serious internal friction without much effort, which is simply a good thing that cannot be sought.

Zhao Dan was very happy, but Huang Xie was very anxious.

As the prime minister of the Chu State, Huang Xie naturally has his own eyes and ears in Yingdu, and there are quite a few.

So two days after the great changes in Yingdu, Huang Xie had already learned the news.

When the first wave of messengers arrived, Huang Xie only knew the news of Chu Wangyuan's death, but even this news was shocking enough for Huang Xie.

Huang Xie knew very well in his heart that the reason why he was able to fight against the three major families of Zhaojingqu for such a long time was entirely because of the strong support of Chu Wangyuan.

Now that Chu Wangyuan is dead, and Huang Xie and the underage prince have not had much contact, the situation is very embarrassing.

Once the crown prince is unwilling to continue to support Huang Xie, then Huang Xie's downfall will be a matter of minutes.

This made Huang Xie very uneasy.

But that's not the end of the bad news.

When the latest news came from Yingdu, Huang Xie was stunned.

Li Yuan soared into the sky, Jingyang was awarded the title, but Huang Xie got nothing?

As an old Jianghu who has been in the political arena of Chu State for decades, where could Huang Xie not notice the strangeness inside?

So after getting the news, Huang Xie immediately summoned several of his cronies and began to discuss countermeasures.

For the current predicament, several cronies looked at each other, and obviously there was no good way for a while.

This made Huang Xie obviously a little dissatisfied, and couldn't help but speak: "I treat you well on weekdays, just hoping that you can give advice at this critical moment, and now you are all silent, what is the reason?" ”

When Huang Xie's words came out, many of the cronies present lowered their heads in shame.

Only a staff member named Zhu Ying sat there with a calm face, in stark contrast to the ostriche-like colleagues around him.

Huang Xie looked at Zhu Ying's appearance, and he was also a little unhappy in his heart, I, as the sovereign, are going to burn my eyebrows now, but you, a retainer, are still such an old god?

So Huang Xie couldn't help but say loudly: "Zhu Ying, you are so indifferent, could it be that you are confident?" ”

Zhu Ying nodded with a smile and said, "Your Excellency, the ministers have three strategies to solve the crisis of the monarch." ”

"Oh?" Huang Xie's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but speak: "Then you don't come quickly?" ”

Zhu Ying said: "Dare to ask the king which strategy to start listening to?" ”

Huang Xie thought for a while and said, "Let's talk about the next step first." ”

Zhu Ying said: "The next step, the monarch should immediately control all the forces of the three major families of Jingyang and Zhaojingqu in the army, and then wait and see the changes in Yingdu." If Yingdu can give the monarch a title, then the monarch is naturally the commander of the Chu State. If Yingdu insists on opposing the king, then the king can also lead the army back to Yingdu, and it is absolutely impossible to be an enemy with the strength of Yingdu. ”

Huang Xie was taken aback and hurriedly said: "No, this is a counterproduct, and I don't want to do it." Tell me the best way to go. ”

Zhu Ying continued: "The middle strategist, the king should immediately kill Jingyang and the other three major families, and then make peace with Zhao Guoyan, raise troops to return to Yingdu, control the king in Yingdu, and then look for an opportunity to do the old things of the Tian clan!" ”

Huang Xie's eyes were about to pop out, and he said angrily: "Zhu Ying, can you say anything other than instigating me to rebel?" ”

Just now, he was holding the army and respecting himself, but now it's better, and he is going to be a usurper and a thief.

Zhu Ying looked at Huang Xie without showing weakness and said, "Your Excellency, the current situation is already obvious, no matter which queen mother is on the Yingdu side, she doesn't want your lord to continue to sit in this Ling Yin's position. If you don't want to sit still, then you have to act now! ”

Huang Xie shook his head and said, "No, no matter what you say, I will not rebel." ”

Zhu Ying shrugged his shoulders and said, "Since that's the case, then I still have a good strategy." ”

Huang Xie frowned and said, "Say." ”

Zhu Ying said: "This strategy is actually very simple, the monarch only needs to immediately control Jingyang and the others, and then lead the army to surrender to Zhao State." If King Zhao gets this news, he will definitely reward the king heavily, so that the king will be rich and worry-free in this life. ”

As soon as Zhu Ying's voice fell, the big tent instantly became silent.
