Chapter 1167: The One Who Achieves Great Things
"The minister heard that the lord was worried about the minister's labor, and the lord humiliated the minister's death, and the truth was the same. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoNow that the ministers are serving the king, they have not been able to eliminate the root cause of the ungerminated war of Fujiao, and they have not been able to restore the humiliation of the Huiji, which has poured into a disaster. Despite this, the minister still wanted to assist the king in avenging the shame, so he did not die. ”
"In the past 15 years, the ministers have been conscientious and conscientious, and they dare not have a trace of slackness, fortunately thanks to the gods of the temple and the prestige of the king, this has turned defeat into victory, broken the country of Wu, killed the husband, and became the cause of Shang Tang, Zhou Wusheng Xia Ji, and Shang Xuan. Such a king's wish has been fulfilled, the enemy country is destroyed, the spear is collected in the treasury, the soldiers are returned to the fields, the armor is full of lice, and the people are resting, and the conspiracy and tricks of the Li are useless, and they are useless people, and they dare not accept the fiefdom and the city, please let the ministers leave here. May the king be merciful and sincere, listen to the minister's micro-ambition, and let the minister be the meson push, and the king does not have to be the prince of Jin Wen......"
"The minister Fan Li is not afraid of dogs and horses, and I would like to worship the table and smell it......"
Closing the silk book, Gou Jian was silent, his face was gloomy, and he couldn't see what he was thinking.
Wen Chong was beside him, carefully observing Gou Jian's expression. You must know that when Fang Li heard that Fan Li was leaving without saying goodbye, Gou Jian was already murderous, so he asked Fan Li if he could chase him. Wen Chong hurriedly said that Fan Li had gone away, and he had already made up his mind, and he would not take refuge in the enemy country, and begged the king not to chase him, Gou Jian put away his killing thoughts and opened Fan Li's letter......
After reading it, like a cloud and rain, Gou Jian's expression naturally changed from gloomy to regretful, and he said sadly: "Young Uncle doubts me, Young Uncle doubts me...... Is he disgusted that the widow has given him less fief? ”
Wen Chong hurriedly explained: "King, this ...... This is not the intention of the young uncle. ”
Gou Jian unexpectedly took off the crown on his head, handed it to Wen Chong, and said in a hurried tone: "Doctor Ziyu, when the widow asked you where your young uncle was, he wanted to chase him back in person, and swore in front of the heavens, earth, ghosts and gods, and immediately sealed the entire Wu country to him, and made him the king of Wu land, shield the north for the widow, and govern Jiangdong together!" ”
"The king shall not be! And the young uncle has indeed gone far, and he has made up his mind to go and will not come back. "Wen Chong has listened stupidly, and he doesn't know how to deal with it.
Hearing that Fan Li was really gone, Gou Jian beat his chest again, wept and stained his clothes, took Wen Chong's hand and said: "Zi Yu, you and the young uncle are the two pillars of the Yue country, the young uncle has been planning for me for fifteen years, and the officials in the country can follow his plan, and the people also think that he is a good answer, as for the widow...... No matter in Wu Zaiyue, the widow is entrusting his net worth and life to the young uncle, let him carry out the plan, and now the young uncle is saying goodbye, this is God abandoning the widow and damaging the Yue country! ”
After Gou Jian finished crying, he immediately issued several orders, one of which was to transfer Fan Li's fiefdom to his wife and children in Yueguo, so that his heirs could inherit the title, and at the same time warn the entire Yue Kingdom: The son of Li, such as the son of a widow, will be killed if he dares to despise him! Then the king of Yue asked the craftsman to imitate Fan Li's appearance, cast a bronze statue, and said that it would be placed in the main hall of the Huiji Palace, so that it was as if Fan Li was still there.
"In this way, the widow can also pretend that he can still discuss state affairs with the young doctor at all times, and be guided by him......" After doing these things, Gou Jian looked much more comfortable, but he still couldn't stop his long sigh.
Wen Chong was deeply moved, and secretly said in his heart: "Young uncle, young uncle, I just said that the king is not that kind of person, are you smart this time?" ”
Just when Wen Chong was about to be moved by Gou Jian's attitude, King Yue suddenly raised his head again and asked solemnly: "Doctor Ziyu, don't you want to leave too?" ”
The strength in King Yue's hand was very heavy, and he looked at Wen Chong with an eagle-like gaze in his eyes, as if he was a lackey who could be cooked after the death of a cunning rabbit.
"Minister...... If the minister does not leave, the minister will continue to be loyal to the king, rectify the land of Wu, and sort out trivial matters. ”
Wen Chong was terrified, and suddenly stammered, the long-necked bird beak, eagle-eyed wolf-looking, moody king in front of him was the most feared. He also suddenly understood everything about Fang Cai, I am afraid that Gou Jian did it for the surrounding ministers, generals, and even the people of Wuyue.
"Goodness, great goodness! The loss of the young uncle in the Yue country is already a great loss, if there is no doctor again, you really don't know when you will die. ”
Gou Jian looked very happy, Fan Li left, his often worried emotions after destroying Wu seemed to be swept away, he patted Wen Chong's shoulder and said: "From now on, the widow will hand over his life and the social affairs of Yue Guo to all the doctors......
Wen trembling and returning as promised, after coming back, Fan Li's warning before leaving, and Gou Jian's attitude today reappeared in his eyes and ears for a long time, after turning over and over, Wen Chong sweated, he quickly got up and turned on the lamp, opened the silk book that Fan Li wrapped in the letter and handed to him and read it again:
"If you want to start and finish well, you don't have to hide the rivers and lakes with me, you just need to resign all the fiefs given by the king, as for the reason, the bird is smart, so naturally you don't need to ......say it clearly."
"Young uncle, you are exchanging your exile for our survival, and even the continuation of the Yue Kingdom......"
Suddenly, Wen Chong understood Fan Li's deeper painstaking efforts.
……
Wen thought about it again and again, and the next day the court meeting, he first shirked the cities that Gou Jian had given him, the reason was that Fan Li, who was recognized as the first hero of Wu, had resigned, and the minister's size was meritorious, and he had no shame to ask for the land, after all, in the final analysis, the ancestors still had spirits, and the king was Shengming......
Similarly, there are literary genres taking the lead, and the doctors are Yong, Gaoru, Ku Cheng, etc., who have resigned from their fiefs.
So in the sycophancy of "King Shengming", Gou Jian was satisfied to recover most of the territory that had been divided, but he also left the ministers with food and clothing that could make them clothed and fed.
At the same time, he also announced an order, which was the first decree of Gou Jian after following the example of King Wu of Zhou to count the great crimes of Emperor Xin, to put many charges on Fucha, Zheng Dan and others, and to bury Wu Zixu, and announce the end of the war Wu Yue has been a family since then.
"In the past, Lu Lu and Fucha were princes surnamed Ji, but they arrogated to be kings in the south, and even used the name of the Son of Heaven, so the celestial phenomena changed, and the sun in the south of the Yangtze River was swallowed by shadows for several days."
"Although the widow is a descendant of Dayu, the ancestors have escaped into the barbarians for many years, cut off the tattoo, do not know what the etiquette is, so when they don't know, follow the example of Chu and Wu, and usurp the king in the country, but they are regarded as barbarian sub-countries by the Central Plains, and the alliance will also be ranked at the end, which is really ugly...... Now that the state of Wu has died, the passage between the state of Yue and the state of the Central Plains has been opened, and the widow thinks twice and does not dare to be rude and arrogant. ”
He smiled and ordered: "The widow heard a sentence from the young doctor, if the name is not right, the word will not be good, and if the word is not good, the thing will not be done." Therefore, from now on, the Yue Kingdom will remove the king's title at home and abroad, and at the same time send envoys to the north to explain the situation to the Son of Heaven and the uncle, and ask them to give the Yue Kingdom a formal princely position! ”
"The King...... Your Majesty! ”
Wen Chong was overjoyed in his heart, which was why he and Fan Li were able to die for Gou Jian for many years. Gou Jian may be gloomy or difficult to guess, but he is a natural monarch, brave after shame, and deeply possessed the art of the king's south, and only under such a monarch can he achieve great things.
Looking at Gou Jian, who seemed to be reluctant at all after giving up the king's title, Wen Chong secretly said in his heart: "Yes, ruthless and decisive, this is what a person who achieves great things should look like!" ”
If Gou Jian is like in history, rampant in Jianghuai, invincible in the world, known as the "overlord", he may be lost and unable to find the north. But as long as there is someone stronger than him in this world, he will quickly find his best position and return to his ninja path...... The reason for this variable is two people, one is named Zhao Wuxian, and the other is Bai Gongsheng......
……
Half a month later, on a building boat on the Yangtze River, Bai Gongsheng, who was preparing to return to Ying, received a secret report from the Yue Kingdom, opened it, and couldn't help but gasp.
"Gou Jian wants to go to the king's name, please ask the king of Zhou and the marquis of Zhao to give him a formal princeship?"
Bai Gongsheng knew in his heart that after the fall of the Wu Kingdom, the situation in the world was already very clear:
Zhao is the head of the princes in the north. As an old power, the state of Chu crossed the south and became the sub-prince of the princes after occupying Huainan and Qunshu and restoring the old territory. The Yue country hijacked the prestige of the Wu country, and also played the role of the dead soldiers who were brave and good at fighting in the land of Wu Yue, which should be the third. As for the Qin State, after ten years of licking its wounds, it occupies the territory of Longxi, Weinan, and Qiyang, which is equivalent to three counties, and should be the fourth. Although Zheng Guo bowed his head to Zhao, he could barely maintain an independent position between Zhao and Chu, and should be the fifth.
In addition to these five foreign countries, the other Yan, Sanqi, Zhou and Sishang small states have completely become vassals of Zhao and have lost their independent status, and the Song State, which was not weak in national strength, is essentially divided into Suiyang County presided over by Nanzi and Pengcheng County presided over by Lelu, which is similar to the two countries, and in military diplomacy, only Zhao Wuxian is the first to look forward.
Compared with those small countries, the Yue State is relatively strong, but compared to the Zhao State and the Chu State, the Yue State is still weak, with a territory equivalent to three counties, and the population is only one-tenth of that of the Zhao State......
Gou Jian is the grandfather of Xiong Zhang, the king of Chu, so the future national policy of the Yue State is still to unite the Chu State and confront the Northern Zhao State. But there has never been a conflict between the Yue and Zhao states, even if Zhao Wuxian let people occupy Jiangbei, not to mention that Gou Jian has little interest in the places north of the river......
In this way, it is better to convey the message to Zhao that Yue does not want to be an enemy by canceling the king's title, and at the same time reduce a reason for Zhao Hou Xing's army to fight. And in this way, he can also show the Chu side that although Gou Jian is the grandfather of the king of Chu, he is willing to remove the king's name, which is one level lower than Chu, and is willing to play the role of a junior brother in the Chu-Yue Alliance.
"As a grandfather, he bowed his head to his grandson, except for the practice of the way of forbearance, which monarch who had just destroyed the enemy country could do this kind of thing? Killing three birds with one stone, it's amazing! ”
After rubbing the silk book and throwing it down the river and letting it float away, Bai Gongsheng turned his head and said with emotion to the ministers and generals who surrounded him: "Gou Jian this person is really terrible, no wonder he can turn over in a desperate situation and kill the ...... of his husband."
After speaking, he left another comment: "But compared to Zhao Wuxian, who wants to swallow the world and doesn't pay attention to the rules at all, Gou Jian's conspiracy and forbearance are only the path of the weak......"
Although the way of using troops is exquisite, but in the end it is still a positive victory, compared to Zhao Wuxian, who has been laying out the world for ten years, the rise of Gou Jian, it is still a little late, Bai Gongsheng knows very well, who is the biggest enemy of Chu State!
