Xiong Wu pondered for a long time, but still didn't dare to make a decision.

Cang State does have the practice of not killing and surrendering, and properly reconciling the royal family of the surrendering country, but Chu State is slightly different.

Now, the Emperor Xiong Minne is still detained by the Cang State, and no one knows what the attitude of the Emperor of the Cang State towards the Chu State is.

After all, regardless of whether there is a convention or not, in Cangguo, a country with a high concentration of imperial power, it ultimately depends on the attitude of the emperor of Cangguo.

In a thought, if the emperor wanted to destroy the royal family of the Chu State, then the royal family of the Chu State would definitely have no reason to survive.

Qu Dan saw Xiong Wu's doubts and asked, "Your Majesty thinks that when you are today, will Cangguo be able to cover the sky with one hand?" ”

"I can't."

Xiong Wu shook his head firmly, Cangguo is indeed very strong, through the Grand Canal and commerce, as well as the spread of culture, it has become the center of the world, and it is very likely to hide amazing strength.

But it is undeniable that the country of Cang is indeed not to the point where it can show the rest of the countries as if they were nothing.

"Your Majesty, the world has reached a critical period of chasing, if my Great Chu throws himself into Cangguo, he will definitely be able to make Cangguo's strength soar, there are only two big countries left in the world, Ruan and Cangguo, the two strong will compete, Ruan will easily fall into the disadvantage, the emperor of Cangguo is now more than thirty years old, if there is an ambition to dominate the world, it is inevitable to set an example for the rest of the country, after my Chu State, the rest of the countries dare to surrender to Cangguo, on the road to unifying the world, Cangguo will be able to save a lot of trouble."

"You mean, even if the Cangguo is shown to the rest of the countries, it will treat me well?"

"That's right, there is a saying in Cangguo, called a thousand dollars buy horse bones, Your Majesty can only devote himself to such a country that will buy people's hearts, is the safest way."

After listening, Xiong Wu nodded while pacing in the hall.

This is a big decision, related to the future of the entire Chu State, or the future of the entire Chu State royal family and nobles.

Whether he, the emperor, can survive or not depends on what the Emperor of Cangguo thinks.

It was one of the most important decisions of his life.

If Chu does not surrender, the Cangguo army will keep fighting, and will not even give the opportunity to beg for peace.

There is not much time left for him, in other words, there is not much to rely on in his hands.

By the time the armies of various countries have almost encroached and occupied the hinterland of Chu, it will no longer make sense for Chu to surrender or not.

At this time, which country he led the Chu State to surrender to, then which country could get a large area of resources and territory, and it would be much easier to rule the hinterland of the Chu State in the future.

After a night of thinking, Xiong Wu still couldn't make a complete decision.

He didn't even convene the nobles of the family to discuss, because once the nobles of the family participated, then the taste would change, and at this moment of looking for a way out, the nobles of the family would only plan for their own families, and the interests of the royal family, and even the safety of him, the emperor, would not matter in the eyes of those people.

This is why he only consulted the news of his intention to surrender with Qu Dan.

Just a few days later, when he had no clue and hesitated, the envoy of the Cangguo Kingdom arrived.

Xiong Wu's heart suddenly ignited.

At this time, Cangguo also sent envoys to contact, what to explain?

The state of Chu is saved!

With great anticipation, Xiong Wu didn't have time to ask in detail and met with the envoys of Cangguo.

But soon, there was a wave of disappointment.

Because this envoy was wearing a suit of armor.

Obviously, it was the messenger in the army.

Of course, his identity cannot be compared with the envoys directly sent by the Cangguo court.

This shows that nine times out of ten, Cangguo did not have the heart to make peace, or did not give him a chance to Chu State, but came to give the final requirements and orders.

Sure enough, Xiong Wu was right.

This envoy is one of the members of the Blue Dragon Legion, whose name is Chu Qiong.

The so-called joining the army is a position next to the general, responsible for coordinating the military, and it is an official position that is half civil and half military.

"Foreign minister Chu Qiong, I have seen the emperor of Chu."

Chu Qiong clenched his fists lightly, and he couldn't see any respect, and the few entourages next to him all had similar expressions, just bowing and saluting, without greetings or kneeling.

Xiong Wu's mind had already been on speculating about the purpose of these people, where could he take care of these etiquette, and the eunuchs and maids next to him were also afraid to come out, because everyone understood the current embarrassing situation of the Chu State.

"The foreign envoy must have come from afar, and he must be very tired, do you want to ...... Take a break? Xiong Wu was pleasant, and his tone was full of caution.

"Your Majesty is worried, the foreign minister came directly from the camp, only a hundred miles away, and now he is still full of energy." Chu Qiong said.

Xiong Wu was a little embarrassed, the so-called big camp was the station of the Blue Dragon Legion, just outside Chu City, a hundred miles, this sentence was an insult to him, the emperor Chi Guoguo.

The meaning is very simple, the army of our Cangguo is a hundred miles away from the capital of your Chu country, and you can come whenever you want, but you are helpless.

"The accent of the noble envoy is somewhat similar to that of the local subjects of my Chu country, presumably the envoy has a relationship with my Chu country."

At this time, Qu Dan, who had been standing aside, came out to resolve the embarrassment.

"This adult must be Prime Minister Qu Dan, right? I have long heard that His Majesty praised Lord Qu as a talent for governing the country, and today I saw that he was really extraordinary and different. Chu Qiong's face looked a little better, showed a hint of a smile, and said, "Yes, I was originally from Chu State." ”

"Oh? Is there such a connection? ”

When Xiong Wu heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and the pressure in his heart suddenly decreased a lot.

After all, he was the emperor of the Chu State, and he had a sense of superiority over the subjects of the Chu State from the bottom of his heart.

Besides, since this envoy went out from the Chu State, he has some feelings for the Chu State more or less, and he will have some sense of identity, and it is also much more convenient to talk about things.

"I don't know if you have ever returned to your hometown this time? The wife and children at home are all right. Xiong Wu began to look for a topic.

"Your Majesty thought about it a lot, although the foreign minister was born in the Chu country, but he was born in a poor mountain village, and he was an honest farmer, but later a large number of officials came into the village and slaughtered the old and weak, and I and other young men and women and children were forcibly arrested and sold as slaves to the Cangguo, Your Majesty said that the foreign minister returned to his hometown and went back to see his wife and children, let me ask if I don't kill all the enemies, what face do I have to go back to pay tribute to my relatives?"

"Bold, who dares to be so presumptuous, to wantonly slaughter the people, to do such a reckless deed!"

Xiong Wu was furious as soon as he slapped the case.

I thought that it would be easy to get a little relationship, and it would be more convenient to talk about things next, but I didn't expect that the other party would be a person who was full of hatred for the official uniform of the Chu State.

However, this person was originally a common man of Chu State, but he was treated as a slave by the government and sold to Cangguo!
