PS: Sure enough, I can't set a flag for myself, and the future update will be early and evening (huh?) ）

In the spring of the twenty-ninth year of the reign of King Zhou (491 B.C.), the Central Plains fell into war again, and the Jin State Zhao Wei Han San Qin attacked Qin and took Qin Shaoliang, Qin Huigong died violently, and the Qin army had to retreat, but the Hexi dispute between Qin and Wei will continue until autumn and winter......

When the north is still a chaotic state of contention, Jiangnan has long been intoxicated with the charming spring color, the fields next to Gusu are full of bright flowers, and the sea bass caught from the five lakes is so delicious that it seems to be jumping in your mouth.

But looking at the fish soup on the table in front of him, Wen Chong had no appetite at all, pacing back and forth in the simple living room, anxious.

Their sovereign, Goujian, the king of Yue who entered the state of Wu as a servant three years ago, was summoned to the palace again by the prince of Wu.

Looking out the window at the cuckoo standing on the weeping willow and chirping, a terrible idea came out of the doctor's mind, he stopped his pace suddenly, and said to his colleague Fan Li, who was sitting next to the desk spitting fish bones: "Young uncle, do you say that the king will he have ......?"

"Never." Fan Li was originally a madman of the Chu State, with a handsome face and a full inner quality, and he looked personable when he dressed up a little. However, today, he took off the high crown and belt of the Chu people, wore a low-key linen deep coat, and the sleeves were cut short, like an inferior erection person, not like a doctor of a country.

He is calmer than Wen Chong, Gou Jian was summoned by his husband this morning and never returned, although he knew in his heart that it was not good, but he could still drink the fish soup slowly, because Fan Li knew that only when he was full of physical strength could he go to deal with the monarchs and ministers of Wu State. Seeing his true colors at the time of crisis, it is no wonder that Ji Ran called him "the talent of the king", and he is worthy of what he said when he accompanied Gou Jian into Wu that day, "Within the four seals, the affairs of the people are not as good as planting." In addition to the four seals, the system of the enemy country, the matter of making decisions, is not as good as Liye! ”

Fan Li drank the fish soup clean, put down the chopsticks, and said to Wen Chong: "Zi Poultry has entered Wu this time to pay tribute, the treasures are good, and the beautiful jade silk, as long as there is a share of King Wu, there is no shortage of Dazai Yao." Bo Ya is greedy, he has always regarded Yue Guo as his treasure land for wealth, he is the most favored minister of King Wu, since there is no news from his side, it can be seen that things are far from being as bad as you and I think. ”

Wen Chong sighed: "I don't know what happened, King Wu has already improved his attitude towards the king recently, but Wang Sun Luo, who came to summon him today, suddenly became righteous and strict......"

Fan Li shook his head and said: "Who else can there be, today's matter, it must be Wu Zixu who is responsible for it!" ”

In Wu, although he was humiliated, he was not dangerous if he used the right means. If there is anyone in Wu who is the most feared by Fan Li, it is Wu Zixu, the prime minister of Wu State, he can't help but think of the situation three years ago, when he accompanied Gou Jian and his wife into Wu as hostages......

……

Three years ago (494 B.C.) on the winter solstice, King Yue and his entourage arrived in the state of Wu, when the state of Wu was feasting guests to celebrate the arrival of the master from the state of Chen. As soon as Fan Li accompanied Gou Jian into the hall, the sound of singing and dancing, silk and bamboo stopped, and everyone looked at them with playful eyes.

In the battle of Li, this man defeated the king of Wu, killed the Wu army and abandoned his armor, and was known as the hero of Yu Yue, how invincible he was.

But what about today? Gou Jian groveled, hung his head, and saw King Wu sitting on the king's couch from a distance, so he threw himself to the ground, bowed to the head three times, and called himself "Gou Jian, a lowly minister in the East China Sea......

Wu Guojunchen laughed, if he were an ordinary person, he would be so angry that he would want to find a crack in the ground and get into it, or crash into the pillar and die Hassan. Gou Jian did not think it was wrong, he said with a sad face that he was "ashamed of the emperor, under the burden of the earth, self-immeasurable, let the soldiers of the king of Wu work hard...... he said that now he has been pardoned by the king of Wu for his capital crimes, and honored him as a servant of the state of Wu, holding a dustpan broom to be the slave of the king of Wu, can save this small life, Gou Jian is really sincere and gracious, and he is ashamed......

King Wu was triumphant, and said with a smile, Gou Jian, do you think that the widow is a little too much for you to serve? Wu Guoxianjun's hatred of Lu has not been forgotten.

There was a hint of temptation in the husband's words, at this moment, Gou Jian Jun and I are fish and meat, and people are swords, he gritted his teeth, and once again pretended to be greedy for life and afraid of death, kowtowing like pounding garlic, crying that the ministers deserve death, and I only hope that the king can forgive......

Seeing Gou Jian's appearance, King Wu also looked at each other and laughed with his favorite retainer Dazai Boyao, and his vigilance against Yue Guo was put to the lowest.

However, Fan Li clearly remembered that on the Wu Palace, there was only one person who did not laugh, he didn't even take a sip of wine or eat a mouthful of meat, and during the whole process, a pair of eagle eyes kept staring at Gou Jian!

Wu!

When the others were happy, Wu Xiangbang stood up, his eyes were like fire, Fan Li couldn't help but feel empty, he didn't dare to look at him, his voice was like thunder, every word he said was like a sharp arrow, shooting in the hearts of the monarchs and ministers of the Yue Kingdom!

"The birds are above the clouds, and the Yu people still want to bend their bows and shoot them, if they lie in the Huachi and gather in the courtyard? Is there any reason not to shoot? In the past, the king of Yue hid on the Huiji Mountain, hiding in the old forest, and it was difficult for us to capture him, so we accepted the surrender of the Yue Kingdom and spared his life. Now he has sent it to the door himself, this is a good time for the kitchen to sharpen his knives and slaughter the birds, the king, please behead the hook and practice it in the palace! ”

His color is strong, his words, Gou Jian's face changed greatly, Fan Li clenched his fists, and the smiling monarchs and ministers of Wu in the hall were also suddenly silent, the power of this old minister can be seen, but Fan Li keenly noticed that King Wu was a little unhappy.

"Xiangbang ......" Fucha tried his best to suppress the dissatisfaction that was disturbed, and said to Wu Zixu with a smile: "The widow heard that the punishment will be killed and subdued, and the disaster will be the third generation." The widow did not pity King Yue and did not kill him, but was afraid of the emperor's blame, so he forgave his sins and gave him a chance to atone for his sins. ”

"People can't be resurrected after death, if it is useful to make amends for their sins......" Wu Zixu held his head high, and spoke in a tone like a teacher teaching a disciple and Lao Tzu teaching a son: "How could the tomb of King Chuping be dug up by me?" ”

"This ......" King Wu's face was angry, Wu Zixu was an important minister in the era of the first king, and he was also a great hero who helped him become the prince and raise troops to break through the Yue to take revenge. In terms of military and political diplomacy, he prevented Fucha from going north to seek hegemony, and strongly advocated winning over Chen and Cai first, defeating Chu State, and obtaining half of Chu's country, and also adopted a restrained attitude with the actual overlord Zhao in the north, and did not completely tear his face.

These actions that are correct in Wu Zixu's own eyes, but in the eyes of Fucha, they are an old man who has stepped into the coffin and acts arbitrarily, thinking that he is the king of the weak crown who has just ascended the throne!

Especially on the issue of Vietnam, Wu Zixu has been singing against him and refuting his face in public.

This made the husband feel itchy with hatred, but it was a pity that Wu Zixu was deeply rooted in Wu State, and his friends were all over the Korean and Chinese army, and Sun Wu, who trained Wu Guojia's soldiers, also sat as a guest in Wu Zixu's mansion after he stepped down. The new monarch is most afraid of this kind of powerful old minister, even though Fucha has been on the throne for several years and has gradually grasped the platform, but Wu Xiangbang is extremely powerful, and he is still a little frightened if he wants to ignore this old man's opinion and insist on going his own way......

Fortunately, because of his strong and unreasonable personality, this person also has many enemies in the Wu State, such as the fellow villagers of the Chu State who used to call him a brother......

……

A burst of dry laughter sounded in the hall, Bo Yao, who was slightly fat, high-crowned, and valuable for any jade ornament on his body, stood up and said with a smile: "Zixu Xiu is excited, you, you are still the same......"

He is like an old man who adjusts the contradictions between King Wu and Xiangbang as before, but today it is a little different, Bo Yao's voice changed, and he waved his hand and said: "Zixu is clear in a momentary plan, he doesn't understand the way of the country, and the king's foresight, are you really unable to see through it, or do you deliberately want the king to be condemned by the emperor?" May the king do what you want, and don't be confined to the nonsense of the villains! ”

What the!

Villain? Is he referring to Xiangbang?

This remark immediately caused an uproar in the hall, and for a while, the disposal of Gou Jian was not important, and the ministers of Wu looked at Bo Yao in amazement, and then looked at Wu Zixu. The number one and number two ministers of the state of Wu, like two pillars, separated from the two sides of the king of Wu, looked at each other like this.

Wu Zixu was furious, obviously angry, and there was a hint of disbelief in his eyes that he had been suddenly betrayed. Bo Yao's face was as usual, his face was flattering to please King Wu and not hesitating to offend Wu Zixu, but in his heart he was relieved to finally get rid of this person......

Like Wu Zixu, Bo Yao was also a deceased of the Chu State, and his father Bo Yao Wan was Zuo Yin, the king of Chu Ping, who was later killed by the Chu State Order Yin Zichang who listened to the words of the traitor Fei Wuji, and punished the whole clan, leaving Bo Yao to flee to the Wu State.

Wu Zixu felt that he had the same illness as himself and had some talent, so he vigorously recommended him to Wu Wanglu. He shared weal and woe with Wu Zixu during the Battle of Baiju, and hugged each other when he dug up the tomb of King Chu and whipped the corpse of King Chuping, and wept together to grieve for his father and brother who died unjustly.

They also enjoyed Ling Yin Zichang's wife and concubine daughter together as revenge, and the relationship was extremely good.

But it was also in the madness of breaking through Yingdu that Bo Ya's revenge was avenged, and he was suddenly immersed in the world of beautiful treasures, and began to become greedy and shameless.

After the new prince Fucha succeeded to the throne, Bo Yao knew that the opportunity had come, and he did what he liked and became King Wu's most favored courtier. He gradually cultivated his own henchmen, and no longer needed to rely on Wu Zixu, on the contrary, he still regarded Wu members as a stumbling block to further climb towards the peak of power!

Today, he finally looked at Wu Zixu and stood on an equal footing, instead of following him forever and staring at the back of the old man's white-haired head!

Wu Xiangbang and Dazai were openly hostile, so they had to fight and draw their swords against each other.

At this time, it was the husband who stood up and played a round.

"Sit down for the widows! Far away guests are here, what are you waiting for? Let someone else see the joke? ”

Wu Zixu is domineering, but his loyalty to Wu is unquestionable, and this person is extremely capable, Wu Wangfu still has many things to rely on him to do, and it is not good to abolish his phase immediately. However, Bo Yao jumped out to be an enemy with him, and the husband was still happy, he reprimanded Bo Yao on the surface, and let him be rude to Xiangbang, but on the issue of dealing with Gou Jian, he ignored Wu Zixu's contrary advice, he did not kill the king of Yue, but ordered him to drive a horse for himself, and his wife was a slave in the palace.

Bo Yao's attitude immediately turned one hundred and eighty degrees, bent his fat waist and apologized to Wu Zixu with a smile, but Wu Zixu was still the same, he didn't appreciate it at all, he didn't give people the steps, threw down the chopsticks and left in a huff.

The banquet became more cheerful and presumptuous because of his departure, Fan Li and the others sat at the end of the cold hall, with only a glass of water and wine and a little chewy vegetarian food. Mrs. Gou Jian sat next to King Wu and poured wine for him, but Gou Jian didn't say a word about it, bowed his head and didn't look at it. People are swordsmen, even if King Wu wants to face Mrs. Xingqi in front of Gou Jian, he is afraid that Gou Jian can only endure watching it......

Fortunately, although Fucha was arrogant and arrogant, he got psychological satisfaction from the process of humiliating King Yue, but he was not the kind of person who deceived people too much, and did not do the beastly things that Song Taizong did to Xiao Zhouhou in later generations.

What's more, Mrs. Gou Jian has a tattooed face, which is not the type he likes, what he loves is still a deep-clothed Central Plains woman......

The king of Wu, who had been drunk with fine wine, suddenly became excited, raised his glass and said to everyone: "Now that Yue Jun is a widow, I don't know when he can also arrest Zhao Wuxian, the secretary of the Jin State, as a herdsman?" Then invite the great witch of the Song Kingdom to dance for the lonely every day and serve the bed? ”
