Chapter 343 There are no two days in the sky, how can there be two kings in the country

Linzi arrived in Yingdu, thousands of miles away.

The state of Chu has no owner, and the political situation is changeable. If the prince of Chu does not return to Yingdu to succeed to the throne for a day, the state of Chu will be in more danger. On the way back to China, the prince of Chu also took the initiative to ask Qu Yuan for advice on how to govern the country and govern. Qu Yuan knows everything, and he has no end to it. The two gentlemen and ministers get along very happily.

The prince of Chu had a conversation with Qu Yuan, and he believed that Qu Yuan was a loyal and talented minister. The state of Chu has Qu Yuan, which is the luck of the state of Chu.

Qu Yuan was talented, and he revealed the princes when he was young. Qu Yuan served as the doctor of the third Lu of the Chu State and the official residence of Zuo Situ. Qu Yuan once presided over the new policy, trained the new army, and returned the American government of Chu.

At that time, there were Zhaoyang, Qu Yuan, Chen Zhen and others in the state of Chu, and Qu Kuo, Jing Cui, Zhaoju, Tang Yu and others in the martial arts. The national strength of Chu is far stronger than that of the princes. The princes of the Central Plains attacked Qin, and only then did they take the state of Chu as the core and elect the king of Chu as the commander.

It is precisely because Qu Yuan and others are loyal to the country that the state of Chu will become stronger. The king of Chu also knows Qu Yuan's talent, why don't you abandon it? Prince Chu couldn't figure it out either.

Qu Yuan saw that the prince's knowledge and insights were very comparable. When the crown prince succeeds to the throne, he will be able to regain the former glory of the Chu State. Qu Yuanxin said: "Chu State, there is hope for revival!" ”

The carriage came to a sudden stop.

Qu Yuan approached the car and saluted: "Prince, we have arrived in Yingdu." ”

"Hmm." Prince Chu replied, his expression extremely complicated. There is joy and there is fear.

The prince of Chu was pleased that he left the Qi country and returned to Yingdu, where he had been absent for a long time, gave birth to him, raised him, and lived for decades. What he was afraid of was how to face the gaze of the Chu people. He was even more afraid of whether he could be supported by the Chu people.

Coming from Linzi West, Prince Chu thought a lot. If he succeeds to the throne, he will definitely be a virtuous monarch and revitalize the hegemony of the Chu State. However, the state of Chu has today's tragedy, and everyone says that it was caused by him.

If he is a hostage in the Qin State, he will not kill Doctor Qin. Qin and Chu will not fight evil. The state of Qin would not unite the three kingdoms of Qi, Han, and Wei to attack the state of Chu. The state of Chu would not face the princes on one side and the state of Qin on the other. The state of Chu will not lose its troops, the king will be imprisoned, and the national strength will decline greatly.

He has a lot to bear for the decline of the Chu State.

Qu Yuan saw a 'hmm' coming from the car, so he didn't follow.

Qu Yuan also knew what Prince Chu was worried about. The state of Chu has fallen to such a point today, who is responsible, how can it be explained. However, the future of the State of Chu needs to be in charge of the Prince of Chu. The defeat of the state of Chu is a foregone conclusion, if the monarch and the ministers work together. With the advantages of large land and many soldiers, the state of Chu will definitely be able to reorganize the mountains and rivers and exalt the princes.

Qu Yuan was worried that Prince Chu would not be able to get out of this hurdle, so he asked in a gentle tone: "Prince, why don't you get out of the car and see that my Chu capital is very beautiful?" ”

Prince Chu took a long breath and said in his heart: "Dodging is not always a way." It's time to face it. ”

Prince Chu was mentally prepared and bravely took the first step. When Prince Chu stood in the car, looked at the magnificent scenery in front of him, and asked, "Zuo Situ, why is this?" ”

"Ling Yin led the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs to greet the crown prince." Qu Yuan turned around and shouted, "The prince is back to the country." ”

The people around him also shouted in unison: "The prince returns to the country." ”

With a wave, another wave of voices was sent out. Immediately after, a deafening cheer came.

After a while, Ling Yin Zhaoju stepped forward and said: "Minister, lead the military generals to welcome the prince back to the country." ”

"Welcome back to the Prince." Hundreds of thousands of people chanted in unison, resounding through the valley for a long time.

Prince Chu's heart was rippling, looking at the spectacular scenery in front of him, and listening to the sound of the mountain and the tsunami. It turned out that he was not abandoned by the people of Chu.

That year, he left Yingdu and went to Linzi of Qi as a hostage. He left with hatred and discouragement. He hated the state of Chu, hated the king of Chu even more, and even hated everything in the state of Chu. Who knew that when I returned today, it would be like this.

The pain, the sadness, and the hatred of the past can't withstand the momentary touch. The tribulations of the past also made him grow. Prince Chu said in his heart: "The past is irretrievable, so seize the present." ”

With the support of Zhaoju, Qu Yuan and others, as well as the cheers of hundreds of thousands of people, the prince of Chu walked into the capital city.

When the queen of Chu heard that her son had returned safely, she had already been waiting at the high platform.

The prince of Chu did not lose his monarchical demeanor and walked among hundreds of thousands of soldiers. Zhao Ju and Qu Yuan followed him. Every time the prince of Chu walked a few steps forward, the commander of ten thousand men knelt on the ground and shouted: "Welcome the prince back to the country." ”

The prince of Chu came to the stage and stared at the hall of the sacred Chu State, with a ripple in his heart. The prince of Chu stabilized his mind, took steps, climbed the high platform, came to the queen of Chu, and knelt down with tears in his eyes and said, "Queen Mother, the child is back." ”

"I'll be right back." Queen Chu watched her son return and cried with joy, "You have suffered in the Qi country. ”

The eunuch Ling Zhaoyao took a step forward and said softly, "Queen." ”

The queen of Chu knew that the succession of the child was a big deal, so she picked up her tears and took the hand of the prince of Chu to face the ministers and hundreds of thousands of soldiers. When the ministers and hundreds of thousands of soldiers saw this, they knelt down and shouted, "Welcome the prince back to the country." ”

At this time, the first drum beat loudly.

When the drums stopped, the queen of Chu raised her voice and said: "The king is imprisoned in Qin, and the state of Chu cannot be left without an owner for a day." Today, the crown prince has returned and inherited the throne. ”

At this time, the second drum sounded in the sky above Yingdu.

Zhao Yao walked over with the prepared royal clothes and crown.

Several maids stepped forward to dress the new king. The queen of Chu personally put on the crown for the prince of Chu.

The drums stopped, and the prince of Chu was wearing a royal robe and a crown on his head, and he was extraordinary. The king of Chu took a step back and saluted, "Minister, see the king." ”

The crowd also shouted, "See the king." ”

The king of Chu Xiong stood on the high platform, the corners of his clothes flying, so not majestic.

Zhao Ju and Qu Yuan shouted in unison: "Long live the Chu State, long live the king." ”

Hundreds of thousands of people also chanted, and wave after wave of voices struck the sky and shocked people's hearts. King Xiong of Chu said horizontally: "This is the power of the king. From today on, the world of Chu belongs to me. ”

Xiong Heng, the king of Chu, stepped forward to support his mother, faced the ministers, and shouted: "The country of Chu is in trouble, and the widow is willing to shoulder the heavy responsibility of protecting the state of Chu." Please help the widows and revitalize the mountains and rivers of Chu State. ”

Zhao Ju raised his arms and shouted: "Long live the Chu State, long live the king." ”

Hundreds of thousands of people also chanted.

When the voice stopped, Xiong Heng, the king of Chu, said in a loud voice: "The Qin State will be treacherous and will go forward, and the Chu State will be insulted again." Now he imprisoned the former king Yu Xianyang. The shame inflicted by the Qin people must be avenged. ”

Qu Yuan raised his arms and shouted: "Reorganize the mountains and rivers, attack Qin Xuesha, step on Xianyang, and revitalize our country's prestige to welcome the first king." ”

Hundreds of thousands of soldiers shouted in unison: "Reorganize the mountains and rivers, attack Qin Xuesha, step on Xianyang, and revitalize our country's prestige to welcome the first king." ”

Xiong Heng, the old king of Chu, was imprisoned in Xianyang, Qin State, and Xiong Heng, the prince of Chu, returned to Yingdu of Chu State and inherited the throne as King Qingxiang of Chu.

Xiong Heng, the king of Chu, succeeded to the throne, while giving amnesty to the world, recuperating and recuperating, and rallying the hearts of the people; On the other hand, good generals were recruited from all over the country to attack Qin Xuesha, and horses stepped on Xianyang to boost the country's prestige.

Xiong Heng, the king of Chu, had just tasted the power of the king of a country, and asked him to attack Qin to welcome the first king. Although he was unwilling, the main battle faction such as Zhao Ju and Qu Yuan had a tough attitude, and the situation was like this, so he had to reluctantly agree. As a result, Xiong Heng, the king of Chu, took Qu Yuan as the main envoy and Zhaosheng and Jing Kui as the deputy envoys. Envoy to the Qin State, salute first and then soldier.

......

Qin Wangji lured Xiong Huai, the old king of Chu, to Wuguan, conclude an alliance, and negotiate the border affairs of the two countries. The king of Qin detained the king of Chu in Wuguan by fraud, and then imprisoned Xianyang. The king of Qin coerced and intimidated, and asked the king of Chu to cede the two counties of Qianzhong and Wu before letting him return to Chu.

The king of Chu has always cherished his name, and he is also a proud man of the Chu country, how can he cut off the territory in order to make a living. Even if he divides the territory and returns to Chu, he will be infamous through the ages. In order to force the old King of Chu to cut off the territory, the King of Qin had a plan when he couldn't make a plan. However, all the schemes failed.

The King of Qin not only did not get half an inch of Chu territory from the old King of Chu, but was also turned around by the Qi people Jing Guojun.

How could the young and vigorous King of Qin be willing to send an envoy to the State of Chu to claim territory in the name of the King of Chu.

The Qin envoy went to Yingdu, but the Chu envoy came to Xianyang.

When the king of Qin learned of the great joy, he mistakenly thought that the envoy of Chu came to Qin to welcome the king of Chu, so he happened to take advantage of the fire to rob. When King Qin saw the envoy of Chu, he said contemptuously: "The envoy of Chu came to Qin, what is the matter. ”

Qu Yuan replied, "Come for my king." ”

"The state of Chu will not cede its territory to the state of Qin for a day. Widowed for a day, do not let the king of Chu return to the country. The king of Qin shouted: "When will you cede Qianzhong County and Wu County to Qin State?" ”

When Qu Yuan heard this, he laughed loudly.

King Qin said angrily: "What are you laughing at." ”

"The state of Chu can have today, all of them are the ancestors of the past dynasties, overcoming the thorns and waves to enlighten the mountains and forests. When it comes to territory, every inch of land must be contested. The Qin State occupies the territory of the Chu State and wants to get involved in the mountains and rivers of the Chu State. Does King Qin really think that the Chu people are easy to bully? Qu Yuan was indignant and said: "The Qin State wants the territory of the Chu State, but it can't do it. ”

"You are not afraid that the widow will kill the king of Chu."

"My king died for not ceding his land. Though a man dies, his name will remain for eternity. ”

"If you speak wildly, you will not be afraid that the widow will kill you."

"Wouldn't it be a husband to die for the country."

Qin Wang He had seen the Chu people who were not afraid of death, and he didn't know how to deal with it for a while.

Qu Yuan took out a letter of state and said lightly: "The ancestors and gods, do not abandon the Chu State." The state of Chu already has a new king. ”

King Qin was shocked: "The king of Chu is still here, how can the state of Chu set up a new king." How will a widow believe your words? ”

"This is the letter of my new king." Qu Yuan still had the national credentials on the ground, and his eyes glared angrily: "The king of Qin will not let my king return to the country, and apologize." The man of Chu State will definitely attack Qin Xue and break through Xianyang. ”

King Qin replied coldly: "The widow was defeated by Chu three times, how could he be afraid of the Chu State." The boy of Chu State wants to attack Qin Xue shame and break through Xianyang. The widow has to see if Chu has that ability. ”

Jing Kui shouted: "If it weren't for the Battle of the Hanging Sand, my big Chu boy would have lost the hands of the princes." The state of Qin is not the opponent of the state of Chu. ”

"If you lose, you lose." Qu Yuan said: "The lost dignity and glory of the boy of Chu will be redoubled." ”

"Okay." King Qin said with high morale: "If the state of Chu does not set foot on Xianyang, the state of Qin will set foot on the capital of Ying." ”

The two sides looked at each other angrily, and the flames released wanted to devour each other. It has already been said that there is no point in continuing to talk about it.

Qu Yuan smiled and said, "I want to see if the sword of the Qin people is sharp, or the sword of the Chu people is sharper." ”

King Qin was also full of curiosity about the man in front of him, who was full of righteousness and was not afraid of swords and axes, and asked, "Who are you?" ”

Qu Yuan replied in a bronze voice: "Zuo Situ Qu Yuan." ”

King Qin remembered these words in his heart and asked, "If you come to Qin, you will serve the widow." The widow named you the prime minister of Qin. ”

"Life is Chu, death is Chu." After Qu Yuan finished speaking, he strode away.

King Qin shouted, "Wait. ”

"Qin and Chu are bound to go to war." Qu Yuan stopped and turned around, "King Qin has something else to say." ”

"When you come to Xianyang, you don't want to see the King of Chu."

"If the King of Qin allows, I will see it."

King Qin said: "Take Qu Yuan to Zhangtai." ”

Shu Changhuan commanded: "Huh." ”

In order to make the soldiers bloodless, the king of Qin established meritorious deeds and obtained the two counties of Qianzhong and Wu. He did not hesitate to carry the infamy on his back and imprisoned the king of Chu. The state of Chu broke the ritual system and set up a new king. Then, the king of Chu has no use value for him at all. King Qin never thought that the state of Chu would be able to quickly come out of the state of being ownerless, and there was a coping strategy.

At this moment, King Qin realized that strange goods were not necessarily habitable. He also had to think about how to deal with the King of Chu.

let the king of Chu return to the country, but did not get the territory of Chu. This move will not only reduce his efforts to ashes, but also bring shame to the Qin State and damage his reputation. If the king of Chu is not released, he has no intention of getting it, which makes the two countries hostile and the war resumes.

Only then did King Qin realize that he would suffer a big loss if he underestimated the Chu people.

King Qin thought to himself: "Fighting with the State of Chu, I will be defeated." ”

At this time, Shou Candle, Lu Li and other Qin ministers walked in.

King Qin told him what had just happened.

Shou Zhu said: "Your Majesty, we haven't lost yet. ”

The King of Qin sighed: "The State of Chu has set up a new king, and the King of Chu has no use. We lost, completely lost. ”

"As long as the King of Chu is still in our hands, we will not lose." Shou Zhu saw that the king turned from worry to joy, and said: "The new king of Chu is just the right excuse for us to send troops." There are no two days in the sky, how can there be two kings in the country? There are two kings in the state of Chu, and it is difficult for the people to be united, and there will be chaos. In the name of helping the king of Chu, we attacked the state of Chu, how could we not win. ”

"There are no two days in the sky, and there are no two kings in the country." King Qin snorted coldly and said, "The king of Chu does not cede his territory to the widow, and the widow takes it by force. The Chu people threatened to set foot on Xianyang, and we will level the Yingdu. ”
