King Wu's illness did not worsen. But it has been delayed badly, and it has been delayed for three months.

During this period, Xi Shi has been serving by his side, feeding medicine and food, serving drowning, talking to King Wu to relieve boredom, occasionally singing a song to relieve King Wu's boredom, and accompanying him in front of the bed at night.

Because of overwork, people also look haggard. This made King Wu very moved, he grabbed Xi Shi's hand and said: "Qingqing is really the closest person in the world, without your care, the widow may have seen the king of Hades a long time ago." ”

Xi Shi said with a loving face: "Don't say that, the king, it is a blessing for Xi Shi to be able to serve the king." How can I not know that the king is so good to Shih Tzu? I have the right to repay the king. ”

Under Zimei's arrangement, Xi Shi can meet Fan Li from time to time, which makes Xi Shi very happy. Zimei casts spells and can hide from everyone.

Xi Shi confessed to Fan Li that because King Wu was too good to her, she did have a complicated feeling for King Wu.

Some of these emotions are love for King Wu, some are gratitude to King Wu, and some are repaid to King Wu. But it is gratifying that she has not forgotten her mission and knows that she is destroying King Wu, which makes her feel guilty and uneasy.

This is all human nature, and there is nothing wrong with it. Fan Li was frank and relevant, and did not blame Xi Shi, but carefully guided, talked in-depth many times, and the feelings of first love played a huge role, Xi Shi more firmly established the feelings of sacrificing himself for the country.

You can indulge in all the luxurious life that King Wu has to offer, and you can also enjoy the solace of King Wu's love, but you must keep your mission in mind.

Shih Tzu's somewhat chaotic mind became refreshed.

A small crisis was thus resolved.

During King Wu's illness, state affairs were still taken care of by Bo Ya. Bo Yao is shrewd and capable, all kinds of things are handled in an orderly manner, and the country is functioning normally, which allows King Wu to recuperate with peace of mind.

Because King Wu was ill, he was unable to deal with some things, and he did not deeply investigate Wu Zixu's killing of Zheng Dan. seems to be fine, but it makes Wu Zixu uneasy, because this matter is completely his own fault, and there is no way to shirk responsibility.

King Wu can let this matter drag on indefinitely, that is, there will be no problem. You can also pick it up at any time and pursue it.

And when it comes to accountability, things can be big or small. It can be said that Wu Zixu was injured by mistake, or it can be said that Wu Zixu deliberately murdered. There are many reasons for saying that it is a manslaughter, and there are many reasons for saying that it is murder.

In terms of handling, it is as light as blaming a meal and finishing the matter, and as heavy as cutting off the head.

Wu Zixu's intestines were about to repent, and he couldn't figure out how he could make such a mistake no matter what. With his own archery skills, although he can't penetrate Yang in a hundred steps like Yang Youji of Chu State, he should hit a tiger in a shot from dozens of steps away.

However, the hellish thing is that the arrow did not hit the tiger, but it hit Zheng Dan impartially, and it was killed with one arrow. He couldn't figure out how this could happen even if he broke his head.

Of course, he wouldn't have thought that this was a maid beside King Wu who was making trouble.

Saying an inappropriate word is a great disrespect to the king, and if it is serious, it may lose its head, let alone kill the king's beloved woman. Will you still be able to live?

But King Wu did not delve into it. King Wu has his own considerations.

Wu Zixu has been operating in Wu for many years, has made military achievements, has a huge influence and has formed his own power, and Wu's army is controlled by Wu Zixu.

More importantly, these are some people who are loyal to the country and King Wu, and they can't chill the hearts of these people.

Although King Wu is lustful and greedy for pleasure, he is not confused. Things dragged on like this.

Bo Ya presided over state affairs, and every once in a while, Bo Ya would enter the palace to report his work to King Wu. The location is in the Imperial Study.

On this day, with the help of his chamberlains, King Wu would come to the imperial study, lie down, and receive visits from the courtiers. Everyone kowtows and says a word of blessing. Then leave, and then, Bo Yao will report to King Wu one by one how to deal with some important things that happened in the court, and King Wu will give appropriate instructions.

Fortunately, at that time, the four seas were peaceful, and there was nothing in the world, although King Wu was sick and could not enjoy himself, he did not delay anything.

The king of Yue got Fan Li's guidance, and went to wait outside the palace every day, and asked the soldiers guarding the palace to inform the inside, and the king of Yue came to visit the king.

When the soldier gets the benefits of Fan Li, he naturally will not speak ill of King Yue, and every time he reports the news directly to King Wu.

Naturally, King Wu will not meet him, and he will not even see the ministers of the court, how can he meet such a person as Gou Jian?

King Wu was a little annoyed, but he wasn't too disgusted. People who are sick are very sensitive, and it is very comfortable to know that others care about them so much.

On this day, King Wu returned to Chaoyang Palace from the study, and Xi Shi hurriedly served King Wu to lie down. Suddenly he stopped and said, "The king seems to be displeased?" ”

King Wu stretched out his hand to touch Xi Shi's face and said, "It's okay, it's just a little annoying." ”

These days, Xi Shi's body has adapted to the hard work, after all, young. Coupled with Fan Li's hard work, it looks extremely moisturized. Xi Shi said, "Who is bothering the king again?" I can't even get sick! ”

There are complaints in the words, but more care and love. King Wu's heart was warm, and he said: "It's not a big deal, it's just that King Yue Goujian's house, he has to visit the widow every day, and the widow just wants Qingqing to accompany me to recuperate, and doesn't want to gossip more." ”

Xi Shi let out a faint "oh", and King Wu immediately saw that Xi Shi's face was a little cold, so he said, "Qingqing, what do you think?" ”

Xi Shi leaned down, looked at King Wu, and said, "The concubine has set rules for herself, and she will never say a word about the affairs of the court." ”

King Wu nodded slightly, praised Xi Shi in his heart for being sensible, and said, "The widow appreciates Qingqing the most. But this is a widow asking you, but it doesn't hurt to say. ”

Xi Shi changed his posture and adjusted King Wu's pillow to make King Wu sleep more comfortably, and then said: "The concubine thinks that King Yue is kind to visit the patient." ”

King Wu said, "That's for sure. ”

Xi Shi said: "King Yue is no more special than other ministers in the court. ”

King Wu was interested: "He is indeed different from ordinary ministers. Qingqing continued. ”

Xi Shi said: "He is the abolished king of the Yue Kingdom, he has been waiting outside the palace almost every day for several months, asking to visit the king, and no one in the court can do this." If the king does not accept his visits, it will come across as unkind. After all, he still represents the people of Yuedi. ”

King Wu said: "It makes sense, Qingqing is not only as beautiful as a fairy, but also very insightful in seeing things. What does Qingqing mean to meet with Gou Jian? ”

Xi Shi touched King Wu's somewhat emaciated cheeks: "To see it or not, the king decides for himself." However, the concubine thought that he would be grateful to see that he was harmless and give him a chance to show his loyalty. ”

King Wu said: "It makes sense, why didn't I think of this? Okay, according to Qingqing's wishes, the widow will meet King Yue. ”

The news soon spread to Fan Li.
