Chapter 997: Heartbeat
In the records of the Spring and Autumn Historians, in ancient times, Gao Yang's Zhuan gave birth to Lao Tong, Lao Tong gave birth to Chongli, and Chongli served as Gao Xin's Huozheng, which was quite meritorious, so Gao Xin's gave him the position of "Zhu Rong", that is, Huozheng. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info then Gonggong clan rebellion, Chongli was killed by the emperor due to poor fighting, Chongli's younger brother Wu Hui took over Huozheng, still called Zhu Rong, their descendants were divided into eight, called Zhu Rong eight surnames, one of which is the surname Chu people.
Therefore, the Chu royal family proudly called themselves "the Miao descendants of Emperor Gaoyang", in the Chu State, the king of Chu is like a god-like existence, he is the embodiment of the phoenix, and the blood is burning with a raging fire that has continued since the Zhurong era......
But ordinary people would never have thought that even this royal family, which is like a god, also has its own Achilles' heel.
It was more than 200 years ago, because the Zhou royal family refused to add his knighthood, he said in a fit of anger: "My ancestor lived in Chu with the field of sons and men, and the barbarians were all subdued, and the king did not add the throne, I have self-esteem!" "Usurped the throne again. He pursued an iron-fisted policy, conquered the Jianghan Plain, turned the Hanyang Zhuji into his vassals, and conquered Pu and Yangyue, making the Chu state strong.
But it was such a male lord, but he died of an incurable disease in his later years.
In the fifty-first year of King Wu of Chu, the State of Chu sent troops to attack because of the betrayal of the country, but before leaving, King Wu of Chu said to his wife Deng Man: "The rest of the heart is ......"
Since he was young, the heartbeat of the king of Chu was often restless, but he didn't take it seriously, but this time, this hidden danger took the life of the king of Chuwu, who died on the way to the country of Sui, and died under a tree because of a sudden heart disease......
If King Chu Wu died of a violent illness in his old age, then his son King Chu Wen died in the prime of life.
King Wen of Chu inherited his father's legacy, continued to strengthen the state of Chu, moved the capital from his hometown Danyang to Yanying, on the basis of the Jianghan Plain, and destroyed Shen and Deng, occupied the Nanyang Basin, and then destroyed the state of Xi, controlled the state of Cai, crusaded against the state of Zheng, and the soldiers pointed directly at the Central Plains, so that the historian of the Central Plains at that time recorded in horror: "The southern barbarians and the northern Di invaded, and China was endless......
This Nanban refers to the state of Chu.
However, as if cursed, King Wen, like his father, also died on the journey because of his "heart......
The successive violent deaths of the monarchs made the Chu people suspicious, and the next Chu kings, Yin and Sima were worried, what if they also suddenly "heartbroken"?
Fortunately, in the next two hundred years, perhaps there is no longer a need to work so desperately in person, or perhaps the medical conditions have improved, although the kings of Chu in the past dynasties have more or less had a little heart disease, but at least there was no sudden death, but the branches of the Chu royal family, the Qu family and the Dou family, had several incidents of "heart swing" leading to death.
However, to this day, looking at the King of Chu who was lying on the sickbed and had lost the appearance of a dragon and tiger in the past, Ye Gong, Shen Zhuliang and Gongzi Qi and others sadly discovered that the strange evil disease had not left the Chu royal family, they were just dormant, looking for an opportunity to reappear......
In the process of escaping Yingdu many years ago, Xiong Zhen showed signs of heart pain, and since then, this disease will flare up from time to time, and it is common to summon healers to the palace for diagnosis and treatment - he does not believe that Wu Zhu's prayers can save him, and a fortune teller once said that this strange disease of the Chu royal clan is the work of the god of the great river, and it can be cured as long as it is sacrificed. However, the king of Chu scoffed, and the doctors asked for sacrifices in the suburbs, but the king of Chu also flatly refused.
He said: "In the third generation, it was stipulated that the sacrificial system could not transcend the mountains and rivers of the country. The Yangtze River, Han River, Suishui, and Zhangshui are the great rivers of the Chu State, and the fortunes and misfortunes of the widows are determined by these great rivers, even if they are no longer virtuous, they have nothing to do with the big rivers! If you want to worship the river god, okay, wait for the widow to expand the land to the edge of the river! ”
So at this moment, there are still some doctors in the account, but they are helpless, and they all shake their heads and confess.
If Zhao Wuxian was here, he might have told King Chu and Ye Gong that this disease is called coronary heart disease, and it will be inherited in families, resulting in symptoms such as myocardial ischemia, angina, myocardial infarction, heart rate failure, and sudden death......
Unfortunately, the Miao descendants of Emperor Gaoyang have been plagued by this genetic disease since Queen Chu Wu, and in this era, there is no cure.
In the end, he was allowed to enter the tent was a Taishi of the Zhou royal family, who took refuge in the rebellion of the prince dynasty and entered Chu, after the assassination of the prince dynasty, this Taishi had no allegiance and could only eat in the palace of the king of Chu.
Taishi was proficient in medical skills, but after diagnosing the pulse of the king of Chu, he was also shocked by the weak heartbeat and was covered with cold sweat, and he could not give an answer from a medical point of view, so he could only blame it on the ghosts and gods, so he whispered to the king of Chu: "This disease cannot be cured...... But if the sacrifice ceremony is held, it may be moved to Ling Yin and Sima......"
Xiong Zhen, the king of Chu, opened his eyes, although his lips were a little pale, he still said word by word: "Throw this person out, you will not be allowed to enter the Chu country again in this life!" “
After his subordinates drove away Taishi, who was full of begging for mercy, the king of Chu said weakly to Ye Gong: "Ling Yin and Sima are not only my royal brothers, but also the two pillars of the Chu State. Removing the disease of the abdomen and heart and putting it on the thighs and arms can survive for a while, but if the hands, feet and limbs are wasted, how long can the abdomen last? If Heaven wants the widow to die here, then there is nothing to do, so what is the use of the sacrifice? “
"Zhu Rong will definitely protect the king!" Childe bowed down and bowed his head.
Ye Gong said: "The king might as well go back to Ye County to recuperate first......
"No!"
The king of Chu waved his hand, and with the support of Gongzi Qi, he stood up strongly, and said breathlessly: "Back then, King Wu of Chu said that his heart was restless, and Deng Man once said, 'If the master and apprentice have no loss, the king will be able to do it, and the blessing of the country will also be good.'" This is a good saying, even if a widow dies in the army, you must not forget the purpose of this trip. Ye Gong, go and continue to command the siege, if the widow can't even defeat Lu Hun in person, he really wants to make the Zhao family look down on him, make the world laugh, and shame the ancestors! “
Ye Gong bowed and promised: "The minister obeys the king's orders!" Three days, three days will pull out Lu Hun! ”
……
The walls of the civil structure were devastated and miserable by the destruction of the strong bow. But the Zhao clan above is still fluttering in the wind, looking radiant, as if he is cheering for another victory of the city defenders, but Lu Hun City, who was still at ease a few days ago, is now lifeless.
Since yesterday, the offensive of the Chu army suddenly became extremely fierce, the Chu army was not afraid of death to rush to the head of the city, and the Zhao army melee, fortunately, the terrain of Luhun City made it impossible for them to invest too many troops at one time, so the city head was taken back by the Zhao army.
But the price was heavy, there was a strong smell of blood wafting in the slightly humid air, the city was in a mess, and the narrow corridors were densely packed with people, some were the corpses of those who died in battle, and some were Zhao Bing, who fell to the ground from exhaustion and could not get up again.
Wang Sunsheng was also lying in a corner, he was not happy to repel the attack of the Chu army, unlike the previous fight against the Zheng people, everyone he killed these days should have been his subordinate militia pawns.
Another burst of pain came from his hand, thinking about his thoughts, Wang Sunsheng looked impatiently at his right hand wrapped in a thick strip of cloth, when he drove the Chu army down the city just now, the commander Wang Sunsheng also fell into a white-knuckle battle, he was shot by a stray arrow, and the sharp arrow directly penetrated his right palm, although the arrow was pulled out under the treatment of the doctor, and it was also poisoned to prevent tetanus, but it still left a bloody wound hole.
Wang Sunsheng had never been so badly injured, as long as he moved slightly, he could feel the huge pain from the wound pierced by the arrow, but it was okay, at least he was sure that the palm of his hand was still on his body, and at the same time used the pain to keep himself from sleeping.
Because it is life or death, it is tonight, and Wang Sunsheng does not want to die in his sleep.
"You go and invite the deputy commander to ......" After pondering for a while, Wang Sunsheng suddenly said to the black clothes who had been monitoring him beside him.
In the battle in the past few days, Wang Sunsheng was very brave, and he did not hesitate at all when he killed the Chu people, and he commanded properly, Lu Hun was able to defend until now, all thanks to his talent in using troops, so the black-clothed guards were not as vigilant as before Wang Sunsheng, but they also doubted whether Wang Sunsheng wanted to break him up.
"I have something to say to the deputy commander." Wang Sunsheng raised his right hand to show that he couldn't even lift the sword and didn't pose any threat, and then added: "The stakes are very high, it is related to the survival of Lu Hun, and it is related to the life and death of the soldiers in the city!" Let's go! (To be continued.) )
