Chapter 593: Fighting for the Treasure
The State of Qi raised troops to attack Lu, and the army left Linzi and marched in the direction of the State of Lu, but Fan Li did not leave the State of Qi.
He was waiting for new news.
Instigating the State of Qi to attack the State of Lu was not his goal. His ultimate goal is a battle between Qi and Wu, which can not only weaken Wu's army, but also create an opportunity for Yue to attack Wu.
But it was not easy to directly provoke the battle of Wuqi. He negotiated with Zigong, as long as Qi sent troops to attack Lu, Zigong would lobby for Qi to attack Wu instead. Now that the army of Qi has been dispatched, has Zigong's side started to act?
He had to wait until Zigong's lobbying was successful, and then he could return to Yue and prepare to send troops to attack Wu.
Fan Li lives in Chen Heng's mansion. There is nothing to do, just accompany Mrs. Hengying and the maid Tian Ji, drink and eat, play in the garden, or sit and chat.
According to Heng Ying herself, she and her maid Tian Ji are both fox immortals who have cultivated the Tao. Impatient with loneliness, game world. Because he had a relationship with Fan Li, he helped Fan Li, approached Chen Heng, and completed the mission.
Because Fan Li has been with Zimei for more than ten years, he does not treat Hengying as an outlier. The two daughters are good-looking, fresh and good at talking, Fan Li has nothing to do, and is happy to live with them. Although I was anxious, I was happy to have two beautiful women with me.
On this day, I was chatting with Heng Ying, and suddenly reported that Xiangguo was back. Fan Li and his wife greeted the door. Greet each other and sit down.
Fan Li said: "Lord Xiangguo, have all the Valu matters been arranged? ”
Chen Heng said: "The army is stationed in Wenshang. was about to march into the army, and suddenly got the guidance of a master, Chen Heng knew that it was a mistake to send troops to attack Lu State. ”
Fan Li said, "Oh? Where is the master? ”
Chen Heng said: "Speaking of which, this person's name is very famous, he is the master of Confucius, Duanmuci, and the word tribute is also." ”
Fan Li said: "It turned out to be Mr. Zigong." What did he say? ”
Chen Heng said: "Mr. Zigong said: Compared with the State of Qi, the State of Lu is too weak, even if the State of Yue is captured, it will not cause any damage to the national secretary Gao Xianping, but will make them make a fortune." In this way, we will not achieve our goal of weakening them, but will make them stronger. ”
Fan Li said: "It makes sense, why didn't I think of this layer in the first place? So, what is Sangkook going to do? ”
Chen Heng said: "Mr. Zigong said that attacking Lu is not as good as attacking Wu, and only a strong opponent like Wu can defeat the several major families of Qi State." ”
Fan Li said: "What a good plan! Has Sangkook decided to fight with Wu now? ”
Chen Heng said: "Now that the army is stationed in Wenshang, standing still, waiting for Mr. Zigong to persuade Wu to come to Lu, we will have a reason to start a war with Wu, and then we can let go of our hands and feet to fight with Wu." ”
Fan Li said: "Mr. Zigong is really a master. Has he gone to Wu now? ”
Chen Heng said: "Mr. Zigong has rushed to Wu. When I came back, I reported this change to the prince and obtained the official will of the prince, so that the matter could be carried out. ”
Fan Li said: "Fan Li asked to meet Jian Gong in person and help Xiang Guo persuade Jian Gong. ”
Chen Heng said: "Uncle Fan and His Majesty the Marquis are also acquaintances, and with Uncle Fan's help, the Marquis should approve this plan." ”
Fan Li said: "Without further ado, let's go see Qi Hou now." ”
The two came to the Hou Palace together, and when Gong Jian heard that Fan Li was visiting, he received him very warmly. Salute and give a seat. After a pleasant greeting, Fan Li briefly introduced his experience of leaving Wu and said that he is no longer an official now, but a common man. This time I traveled to the north and got acquainted with Xiangguo. I heard that Xiangguo was going to meet the prince in person, so they came to see His Majesty together.
After chatting for a while, Qi Hou asked Chen Heng: "Lord Xiangguo, how is the battle ahead?" ”
Chen Heng said: "Your Majesty, the minister was preparing to march to the Lu State, and suddenly heard that the army of the Wu State was marching north again. The minister thinks that Wu is the fierce enemy of Qi, and we must first put aside the matter of Valu and concentrate on preparing for a big war with Wu. Therefore, for the time being, I will make a special trip back to report to Your Majesty. ”
Jian Gong pondered for a while and said, "It turns out that things have changed like this. Suddenly turned to Fan Li: "Mr. Young Uncle, what do you think about this matter?" ”
Fan Li looked frightened and said: "Fan Li is just here for fun, and he really doesn't dare to intervene in national affairs." ”
Chen Heng said: "The prince sincerely asks the uncle for advice, and the uncle will talk about it." ”
Fan Li said: "The minister will not say whether he should fight with the Wu State or not, please listen to the minister tell a story to His Majesty, and then His Majesty will draw his own conclusions." ”
Qi Hou said: "Okay, the widow will listen to the story of the gentleman." ”
So, Fan Li slowly talked about the long and ancient past.
In that year, the king of Wu had no way, the world was full of complaints, the king of Wu raised an army to attack the Zhou, and the army crossed the river on ice and successfully arrived at Mengjin. When the princes of the Quartet heard the news, they also rushed to Mengjin with their armies to join the Zhou army. The combined army is 100,000. Fighting in Makino, the army of the king of Su was 700,000 and defeated in one day.
King Wu broke through the song, and King Wu fled to Lutai, where he was covered with jewels and died by self-immolation.
However, when King Wu opened the treasury of Yin Shang, he found that the treasures gathered by Yin Shang for hundreds of years had been looted.
Someone took away the treasure before the Zhou army, which caused King Wu to be furious, and immediately sent someone to investigate, and the tracer was Huang Feihu. After many investigations, the target was Jiang Wei, the thirteenth prince of the ancestor of the Qi State.
Huang Feihu caught up with the Taigong people who were rushing to Qidi to build a country. However, Jiang Wei was not seen in Taigong's convoy, and no one said where the thirteenth prince of the Qing Dynasty went. In the end, Huang Feihu ordered to control the vast area south of the Jiao River and north of the Huai River.
Later, fifty miles north of the Shu River, the body of the Thirteenth Prince was found, and the entourage and family members were missing, and the treasures disappeared out of thin air.
After that, for hundreds of years. The descendants of the Huang family have been tracking down these treasures, and they have tracked down the heirs of the thirteen princes scattered all over the place, but they have never been able to find out the location of these treasures.
It wasn't until ten years ago that the descendants of the Huang family discovered that the descendants of the Thirteen Princes had not been prosperous, leaving only a woman named Shaojiang. The secret of the treasure is known only to Shao Jiang.
Fan Li, on the way to Qi State, happened to be involved in this matter, but I couldn't save Shaojiang, she was in the bandits' den and was killed. But I found out where the thirteenth prince died, and according to the analysis, the treasure was buried somewhere in that area. I also got a treasure from Shao Jiang, and I will present it to the prince now.
As he spoke, he took out an object wrapped in silk cloth from his side, put it in front of Qi Hou, opened the cloth, and a yellow jade product was revealed.
Fan Li said: "This is one of the treasures of that year. It is a seal, please take a look. ”
Qi Hou picked up the seal and saw eight words engraved on it: "Ordered by Tianji Shou Yongchang!" Qi Hou said, "Mr. Young Uncle, have you found the location of the treasure?" ”
Fan Li said: "There is no specific location, but it can be locked fifty miles north of the Shu River. This batch of hidden treasures was originally left by the ancestors of the Qi Kingdom. Now buried on the territory of the Wu Kingdom, if you want to return the treasure to the Qi Kingdom, you have to get that piece of land, and then investigate it carefully. Until the treasure is found. That's the end of my story. Whether or not to fight with the State of Wu, His Majesty the Marquis decides for himself. ”
Qi Hou looked at Chen Heng and said: "Xiangguo, the widow is on track, and he must fight this battle well, at least to occupy the area north of the Shu River." ”
