Chapter 1323: The Past of the Chu State
"Let them go?" Xiong Wu muttered, "Let them see my jokes?"
Xiong Wu knew the ability and influence of these royal families, at the beginning, if it weren't for the support of the Duan family, Han Zhitong, Yue Yunshan, Xiong Kui and other generals, he would not have seized the throne in the hands of the big prince with the support of the royal family.
Back then, he thought that he was more qualified to inherit the throne and make the Chu State strong than the eldest prince, but the Yan State suddenly became strong and the Chu State was in a bad situation.
To release these people and let them assist them is to surrender to them.
Xiong Wu can't let go of face.
Xiong Kui hurriedly comforted: "Your Majesty, the future of the Chu State is more important, I hope that the emperor will consider the Chu State and the Xiong family."
Hearing this, Xiong Wu was furious and said: "Send the army to the Valley of the Hidden Soldiers to exterminate all the remnants of Ji Tian's Mandate, as for releasing the eldest brother, I have my own ideas."
"Your Majesty, think twice!" Xiong Kui said a little anxiously.
"Stand down!" Xiong Wu waved his hand and said unpleasantly.
I can't persuade Xiong Wu, I can only leave with a smile.
Tibetan Soldier Valley, Ji Family.
Dare to openly betray the Three Kingdoms of Wu, Yue and Chu and surrender to the Yan Kingdom, today, he must let the Tibetan Soldier Valley flow into a river of blood, and not a single grass will grow!
Let the Ji family and the soldiers pay a heavy price for their treacherous actions.
Leaving the palace, Xiong Kui quickly went to the barracks, dispatched troops, and went to the Tibetan Soldier Valley, preparing to wash the remnants of the Ji family and the soldiers who stayed in the Tibetan Soldier Valley.
However, Xiong Wu and Xiong Kui ignored one thing, Ji Tianming and the members of the Bing family were re-established in Cai State, all the descendants of the Ji family and the important members of the Bing family have all moved to Mocheng, and there are not many disciples of the Ji family and the Bing family in the Tibetan Soldier Valley, even if there are some innocent and important people.
Xiong Kui did not hesitate, and sent his cronies to order 3,000 military horses to gallop towards the Tibetan Soldier Valley.
In the Chu Palace, Xiong Wu took his personal eunuch to the ancestral shrine, and after offering incense to the previous emperors, he walked out of the ancestral shrine and asked the eunuchs beside him: "Chang Heng, how many years have you been with me?"
"Your Majesty, it has been more than thirty years since the villain was appointed by the first emperor to serve the emperor when His Majesty was a child." Chang Heng bowed.
Chang Heng personally served Xiong Wu to grow up, witnessed Xiong Wu's process from a child to an emperor, and was one of the countless old people around Xiong Wu.
Hearing this, Xiong Wu stood in front of the ancestral hall, raised his head along the majestic palace in front of him, and asked, "Chang Heng, do you think I am a qualified emperor?"
"The emperor is wise and martial, and under the leadership of the emperor, the hegemony of Chu in the south is more secure!" Chang Heng said respectfully.
Xiong Wu looked sad and said a little unpleasantly: "The southern princes are respectful to me, and all the princes dare not provoke the majesty of the Chu State, however, you don't forget that there is also the Yan State in the north. Emperor Yan is aggressive, pressing step by step, has forced me to a dead end, and now Ji Tianming led the soldiers to surrender to the Yan country, so that Wu Yue and Chu Three Kingdoms are always under the front of the Yan army, Wu Yue has a ghost in his heart, and the situation of Chu is very bad, do you think what the sixth brother said is appropriate, and I want to release those imprisoned?"
This Xiong Wu's mind was very difficult, even very depressed, he had never made such a difficult choice as now.
If he weren't helpless, he wouldn't have asked the old man who had served him for decades.
"Your Majesty, the villain doesn't dare to speak falsely!" Chang Heng bowed and said, without directly answering Xiong Wu's words.
As a eunuch, what to say and what not to say, Chang Heng's heart is like a mirror, not to mention, he has served Xiong Wu for decades, he knows Xiong Wu's character too well, and he knows better where his reverse scales are.
At the beginning, Xiong Wu seized the throne of the emperor, causing the palace to flow into a river of blood, if it weren't for the great prince's support too much, and directly beheading and causing trouble, Xiong Wu would have already eradicated these people.
The state of Chu has the disaster of destroying the country, let Xiong Wu visit his enemies, give in to them, and admit that he was a wrong choice to take the heir, don't say that Xiong Wu can't wipe his face as the emperor, and ordinary people will not ask for help from their former enemies when they are in danger.
Xiong Wu saw Chang Heng's embarrassment, was silent for a moment, and asked: "If I go to visit in person, do you say that Uncle Seventh Wang, eldest brother and others will abandon their previous suspicions and help when the Chu State is in danger!"
"If the emperor is sincere and believes in the Seventh Prince, the eldest prince will not refuse, even if they don't forgive the emperor, they will definitely not watch the Chu State perish in the Yan Army Peak!" Chang Hengdao.
Hearing this, Xiong Wu bowed his head and said, "Prepare the car immediately, I want to go to the ruined palace."
"Yes!" Chang Heng's jaw is the first way.
The abandoned palace, as the name suggests, is a forbidden place in the Chu State, and it is even more bear-martial. Ordinary people don't dare to mention it at all, for fear of incurring the fear of their lives.
The ruined palace with the surrounding city walls. It is an independent city, a hundred years does not fall, still maintains the style of the ancient city, to enter this ancient city, you must first pass through three bridges, two tributaries of the big river under the bridge.
In many places, the walls have collapsed, and in some places there are rough and thick walls, towering over the riverbank. The jagged sharp stones hung with green grass, trembling in the gusts of wind, and behind this stood the back of the ruined palace, where the Seven Princes, the Great Prince and others were imprisoned.
The palace guards protected Xiong Wu coming, and the leading general ordered the guards to quickly clean up the weeds around the abandoned palace, open up the passage with a sword, and walk inside!
With this, there was a guard notice to guard the soldiers in the abandoned palace, and ordered the seventh prince Uncle Xiong Kuohai, the eldest prince Xiong Heng, the fourth prince Xiong Zhan, and the eighth prince Xiong Rong to come to meet Xiong Wu.
Xiong Wu walked slowly towards the ruined palace under the protection of his personal guards, looking at the ruins and broken walls on all sides, and the rotten breath coming to his face, he couldn't help but sigh secretly, if he was ruthless, if he failed to win the heir, this ruined palace could become a place for him to spend the rest of his life.
After crossing three stone bridges in a row, Xiong Wu walked into the ruined palace, and at this time, there were already guards who opened the palace gate and took Xiong Wu in.
This ruined palace is not small, only a few people live in it all year round, it looks dilapidated, and there is no life.
Xiong Wu walked through the prosperity of the past, and this morning he had fallen into the aisle and came to the inside of the ruined palace.
At this moment, the seventh prince Xiong Kuohai, the eldest prince Xiong Heng, the fourth prince Xiong Zhan, and the eighth prince Xiong Rong have appeared in the abandoned palace square under the leadership of the guards, and are being held on the ground by the guards.
The four people in front of them were all wearing coarse linen clothes, with a disheveled hair and a long beard, and they had no princely demeanor for a long time.
However, the spirit of the four people is quite good, and they still maintain the momentum of the royal family.
Xiong Kui watched and waved his hand to signal the guards to let go of the four of them.
Moving forward, he came to the four of them, with an arrogant expression and a slightly victorious attitude, and said loudly: "Uncle Seventh Wang, Brother Eldest Emperor, Fourth Brother, Eighth Brother, are you doing well?"
"Eat well, sleep well, not affected by trivial matters, have no worries in your heart, and live well naturally." Xiong Kuohai's shrewd eyes glanced at Xiong Wu, then looked at the three princes, and chuckled: "Xiong Wu, look at your haggard expression, I'm afraid you're not having a good time. You don't do bad things in your life, and you're not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door at night, are you afraid?"
"I'm doing well, let's see if you're still alive, I didn't expect you to be fierce and energetic! I'm so disappointed!" Xiong Wu was secretly unhappy, but he said stiffly.
At this time, the eldest prince said sarcastically: "We naturally want to live like a dragon and a tiger, and after a hundred years, we will regain our freedom, but we want to see what kind of governance you have made of Chu."
"Presumptuous! Those who wear sins dare to curse the emperor!" The general of the guard stepped forward and angrily rebuked the eldest prince.
The eldest prince chuckled lightly, not caring at all, Xiong Wu looked embarrassed, waved his hand to signal the guards around him to retreat, and said, "Everyone, retreat outside the ruined palace, I have a secret matter to discuss."
"Your Majesty, your safety is in danger!" The guard was a little uneasy.
Xiong Wu glanced at Xiong Kuohai and the others, and said with confidence: "No one dares to hurt me."
The generals had no choice but to leave.
Xiong Wu found a place to clean the marble, cleaned the dust from it, and sat on it.
Uncle Seven Princes and the Four Great Princes got up one after another. Look at each other in surprise.
"Uncle Seventh Wang, are you okay?" The eldest prince stepped forward and asked.
They are imprisoned in the ruined palace, and they only move around their own courtyard every day, and they don't know who is in the ruined palace, let alone the changes outside.
In that year, the eldest prince was the first to be imprisoned by Xiong Wu, and then the eighth prince was captured and imprisoned by Han Zhitong.
Therefore, for a long time, the eldest prince always thought that he was the only one in the abandoned palace.
With this, Xiong Kuohai, Xiong Zhan, Xiong Rong was also surprised, or surprised.
At that time, they were like-minded, supported the eldest prince to ascend the throne, and were full of ambition to expand their territory in the south. Gradually realize the great cause of unification.
It's a pity that there are unforeseen circumstances and people have good and bad luck, Xiong Wu seized the throne, and they were taken back from power and imprisoned in the abandoned palace.
Xiong Kuohai stroked his white beard, and said in a voice like Hong Zhong: "What's the matter with the old man, but you, okay?"
"Naturally!" The eldest prince said, and then, Xiong Zhan, Xiong Rong also bowed his head.
The four of them were greeting each other, and Xiong Wu was lit up next to him, which was really embarrassing.
Looking at the intimacy of the four people, I couldn't help but sigh secretly, I knew that I would be ignored, and I should have taken the lead in sending Xiong Kui to explore the situation, lest I be the Ninety-Five Honor, but I was imprisoned by my own subordinates and ignored by my former enemies.
"Ahem...."Xiong Wu clenched his fists and coughed lightly, staring at Xiong Kuohai and said: "Uncle Seven Princes, such a dragon spirit and tiger are fierce, can you still lead troops to fight?"
"Humph!"
Xiong Kuohai snorted lightly, ignoring Xiong Wu,
Looking at it, Xiong Wu's expression became more and more embarrassed, and he couldn't help but say angrily: "Xiong Kuohai, you dare to ignore me, believe it or not, I killed you."
"Xiong Wu, if you have something to say, don't put the emperor on the shelf, if it weren't for the sudden death of the first emperor, the king led the army to fight outside, and let you steal the throne, just because you don't deserve to carry shoes for this king,
Today, if you are imprisoned, this king will not complain about the heavens, nor will you be particularly human, and you will not be qualified to shout in front of this king."
"You ....." Xiong Wu was depressed, raised his hand to the other party,
He also knows that among the children of the first emperor, he is not the best, there are princes and eight princes in terms of the ability to handle government affairs, and there are four princes in terms of the ability to march and fight, as well as Xiong Kui, he was able to inherit the throne at the beginning, all because of his marriage with the Duan family and the support of the Duan family, so he defeated the eldest prince in the succession and won the throne by luck.
At this time, Xiong Kuohai didn't give him face at all, Xiong Wu wanted to kill the other party, but he knew very well what he meant.
I couldn't help but get up and arch my hand: "Uncle Seventh Wang, the state of Chu has the disaster of destroying the country. Today, I came to hope that Uncle Seven, the eldest brother, the fourth brother, and the eighth brother, wish me a helping hand."
"Xiong Wu, who inherited the throne at the beginning, claimed to build Lang Lang Tiankun and dominate the world, at this moment, the Chu State is in danger of losing the country. Is it the betrayal of the Duan family, or is the Wu country strong, is it difficult that you don't even have the ability to solve the problem, you were full of spirit and momentum, and went there again!" The eldest prince glared at Xiong Wu and sneered, obviously full of anger in his heart.
