The king of Chu may never have thought that his eighth son not only dared to do such an unethical thing, but also dared to commit a crime and strangle his neck.

Although the King of Chu was not an old man, in front of the young and vigorous Eighth Prince, his resistance obviously did not have much effect.

And the current state of the eighth prince is completely a pure panic! He didn't think about what he dared to do to King Chu at all.

But as he worked harder and harder, gradually, the resistance of the king of Chu became weaker and weaker, and in the end, his whole body softened, and the hands that grabbed the arms of the eighth prince also shrugged down weakly.

"Don't scream, don't call" Where did the eighth prince know what happened to King Chu, he was still continuing to work harder, and at the same time he was still muttering to himself.

It wasn't until a long time later that the jade concubine on the bed reacted, at this time, her eyes widened, she looked at the eighth prince in horror, and then secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said, "The eighth prince"

As she spoke, she also got up tremblingly, slowly moved to the front of the King of Chu, and then cautiously reached out to probe the King of Chu's snort.

In an instant, as if she had been bitten by a snake, Concubine Yu retracted her hand in lightning and said in horror: "He is dead"

"Huh!?" This sentence finally made the eighth prince react, and after a while, he was afraid of attacking, so he let go of King Chu in an instant, and then supported the ground with both hands, rubbing back again and again.

"Dead, dead, my father was killed by me" The eighth prince's eyes widened and he said in horror, "It's over, it's over, we're all finished"

Concubine Yu also swallowed her saliva again, and then forced herself to calm down, and said in a trembling voice: "You, what are you panicking about?" ”

"Huh!?" The eighth prince looked at Concubine Yu in horror, and then looked at King Chu, who had already choked his breath, and said, "This, this"

"The old guy is dead, isn't it as you wish?" Concubine Yu suddenly said coldly.

"What!? I, I" The eighth prince stammered, apparently not knowing what to do.

Concubine Yu said: "He is dead, who knows that you killed him?" What's more, now, with the throne of the King of Chu, you also have a better chance! ”

"But it's the eldest brother," said the eighth prince.

"You mean the prince of Chu? Others are still holding hostages in the green land! When he returns, it's already a foregone conclusion! We have plenty of time to plan! Concubine Yu calmly analyzed.

And her words also reminded the eighth prince in an instant! Yes, now the prince of Chu is still in Qingdi, waiting for the news of the death of the king of Chu to reach there, and then waiting for him to return to China, I don't know how many days later! And during this time, you have plenty of time to set everything up!

Thinking of this, the eighth prince was also relatively calm, he looked at the jade concubine and asked, "You, what is your good plan?" ”

"Above the court, don't you have your own henchmen?" Concubine Yu asked.

"Yes, yes." The eighth prince nodded.

"That's much easier, the doctor's side, I'll buy it, and I'll say that the old guy died suddenly! And Lord Guo Hao, you know, right? He is also our man and can be trusted. Concubine Yu said: "Now the top priority, the first thing you have to do is to gather your forces in the court and prepare for the next battle for the throne, and the second thing is to immediately contact the Qingguo side and let them secretly kill the prince of Chu!" So that they can never return home! In this way, the throne of Chu belongs to you! ”

"Yes, yes, yes." The eighth prince replied again and again. But soon, he asked again: "But, but I have never had contact with Qingguo, how can they help me?" ”

"The prince of Chu is now in Qingdi, if Qingguo wants to kill him, it will be very easy, and besides, they will definitely be happy to help you!" Jade Concubine said.

A few days later, the news of the violent death of the king of Chu came out, and the government and the opposition of Chu were shaken.

And when the news reached Qingguo, the prince of Chu State, who read the letter, was immediately dumbfounded!

He didn't say a word, and immediately asked to see the Qingwang and asked to leave Qingdi and return to Chu.

At this time, the Qingguo court naturally had already received the news, the sudden death of the king of Chu was not good or bad for the Qingwang, and at that time, according to the rites, although the prince of Chu was hostage in Qingdi, the king of Chu was dead, and the prince naturally wanted to return to China to inherit the throne, and the Qingwang had no reason to stop it.

On the day of the court meeting, the minister of Qingguo also made a certain discussion on this matter, and the opinion given by Prime Minister Shangguan Jin was to send some guards to escort the prince of Chu back to China, and before leaving, the Qingwang personally sent him off to show respect, which was also a kind of attraction for the future new king of Chu.

After listening to his proposal, King Qing also expressed his very much agreement, and at noon that day, he held a banquet in the palace and entertained the prince of Chu.

During the banquet, the prince of Chu was listless and depressed, and King Qing could understand his mood, so he couldn't help but comfort: "Virtuous nephew, the accidental death of the king of Chu is really an unfortunate thing, don't be too sad, you have to mourn and change." ”

The prince of Chu shook his head slightly, and then arched his hand and said: "Thank you Uncle Wang for your comfort, the little nephew is in turmoil, and I also ask Uncle Wang to let the little nephew return to the country as soon as possible, so that he can deal with the aftermath for his father."

As he spoke, his eyes turned red, and tears almost fell.

King Qing and King Chu, plus Lu Chen, are both kings of the same era, although they are different in age, it is natural for King Qing to call Prince Chu a virtuous nephew.

Seeing this, King Qing also sighed slightly, and said: "This is natural, the virtuous nephew will return to China this time, and this king will also send it off in person."

"Thank you, Uncle Wang." The prince of Chu choked up and said.

After eating, King Qing personally saw off the prince of Chu, and before leaving, he naturally said something to the prince of Chu about the friendship between the two countries in the future.

Just kidding, as soon as this Prince of Chu returns to China, he will be the next King of Chu, how can King Qing not win it over.

But when the crown prince of Chu had just left Qingdu, an unexpected person suddenly asked to see King Qing.

This person is none other than the original imperial minister, the current Chu official Guo Hao.

Before, because the jade concubine was favored, Guo Hao was an important minister of the Chu State, and he asked to see the Qing King, who was now in the stage of trying to win over the Chu State, so naturally there was nothing to say, so he immediately met him in the palace study.

After seeing the Qingwang, Guo Hao first bent down and bowed his hand, gave a deep salute, and said: "Under Guo Hao, see His Royal Highness the Qingwang." ”

"Lord Guo is exempt." King Qing waved his hand slightly, and then said directly: "The prince of your country, this king has sent someone to escort him the day before yesterday, and he should have left Qingdu at this moment, and he is on his way back to China. ”
