Chapter 383: Chu Shui's Vicious Battle (Part II)
After Liu Ying and Xue Fan walked out of Xiling, they went all the way north to Pingliang City, wanting to meet King Zhao first.
Although the two of them brought enough money from Yaowang Villa, one was lame and dumb, and the other was a short child.
After coming to Pingliang City in Zhao Guo, Liu Ying saw that the city was not as unpretentious as in previous years, but it was already a thriving commercial capital, so he took Xue Fan to the largest restaurant in the city to eat and feel the prosperity of Pingliang City.
The restaurant was crowded with people, and Xue Fan also followed the example of the diners next to him, loudly commenting on the dishes on the table. Liu Ying saw that he was very happy, so he smiled and said nothing, occasionally turning his head sideways to look at the Ninghe Palace not far away, thinking about what his father was busy with at this time.
Liu Ying was quiet, and Xue Fan slowly quieted down, and at this time, the conversation of the diners at the adjacent table gradually came into his ears-
"Song Guohua Chu, what a stinky move! The Song people naturally felt that their Song King was heroic and extraordinary, and he wiped out the allied forces of Qi Wei and Chen Shu in one fell swoop, but in the eyes of our Zhao people, this is a stinky move! ”
"When the King of Song and the Rong people were in cahoots, I knew that he was a black-hearted man. Now that he has thrown the pot on the head of Chu State, it is just to vent his selfish desires. It's a pity that our benevolent king can't do anything that falls into the ground! If you want your buddy to say, our king should listen to our princess, and at this moment, send troops to attack Song. ”
"You're right, let the Song State and the Chu State compete with each other, and our Zhao State will dominate the world! However, this matter is indeed urgent, and our king is probably not out of kindness, but feels that the time has not come. ”
"Anyway, buddy used to think that our king was cowardly and incompetent, but now compared with the black-hearted King Song and the lustful King of Chu, our king doesn't seem to have any other shortcomings except for being ugly."
"It's the same as you've seen our king!"
"Haven't you seen it before?"
"Our king has been sitting behind the golden veil for many years, and the ministers can't even see him at the court meeting, where are we going to see him? During the battle of Wucheng, many people saw the king and said that he did have a big scar on his face. I heard that the king of Song and the king of Chu are both outstanding, the king of Song is tall, and the king of Chu is white. ”
"I think that King Song is definitely not as handsome as King Chu, otherwise, how could King Song's woman live in the Chu Palace?"
"King Anyi of Chu is also the princess of Chu State, why can't he live in the Chu Palace?"
"How can a married woman still live in her mother's house? The princess of Chu married the king of Qi, and it was just that she didn't die for the king of Qi and left, how could there be a reason to follow the king of Song and run back to Chu? Unless, there is a little white face in the Chu Palace that attracts women! ”
"Hahaha!"
"The little white face is not shallow, and it is okay to coax the famous ladies of the family of the third prince and Jiuqing of the Chu State to revolve around him, and he can also coax the woman of the King of Song, how can you say that the living King of Song can swallow this breath? Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore, and raised troops to attack the Song Dynasty, saying that the Chu merchants were treacherous and deceived the Song people of money and goods several times, and the Chu State should hand over the treacherous Chu merchants and deal with them by the Song State, but he didn't say which Chu merchants they were, and asked the Chu State to hand over people? He also said that the people of Chu repeatedly assassinated the king of Song, which greatly hurt the gift of a hundred years of friendship between the two countries, but he didn't catch any assassins...... According to my buddies, the king of Song just can't hold his face, and wants to snatch his own women and daughters back to the Song country from the Chu State. ”
"Then why didn't he rob it a few years ago? Do you have to wait for your daughter to recognize someone else as a father before robbing it? ”
"A few years ago, Song Guo and Qi Wei Chen Shu fought so many battles, and they had to recover their vitality! And in the final analysis, the Song State invaded Chu, and it was the King of Song who asked the Song Army to solve his personal affairs for him, so he had to wait until the Song Army recovered his spirit and was ready to go to Chu? ”
"I think that King Song's black heart is true, but his selfishness is not necessarily. He is not as lustful as the King of Chu, he ran away after a woman, didn't his own queen also say that he would be wasted, and he would stand up? Is it possible to mobilize the army to attack Chu? He went to attack Chu, and the Song people actually had a lot of dissatisfaction, but they always trusted the Song king, who had been conscientious for many years, so they followed him to fight again. In my opinion, King Song still has the ambition to dominate the world. ”
"No matter what kind of heart King Song has, anyway, the Song State will defeat Chu, and it is estimated that both sides will lose. It is said that the king of Chu is lustful, but some people say that he used the power of the woman next to the pillow to appease the entire Chu country, and used what can be described as a superior strategy of 'driving people without a fight'! Not to mention that the twelve ladies he married helped him contain the intertwined three princes and nine kings, just talking about the princess of Chu State, he didn't seduce him in vain. ”
"Yo! I didn't expect that brother, you have a very thorough understanding of King Chu's lustful heart! ”
"Alas! It's a pity! Dude, I cast the wrong baby, and I didn't enjoy all the blessings like King Chu! ”
"It's not that you've got the wrong baby, it's that you've stumbled in appearance. But don't be discouraged, the sky is falling, isn't there still our king on top? You can't stumble but the ugly king we never married! ”
"Don't be drunk and cowardly to slander our king. If we didn't have our king guarding Wucheng, would we still be able to blow the spring breeze and drink wine in Pingliang City now? Let me tell you, the king of Chu is as smart as his buddies. If it were me, I would have done everything I could to hook that woman back to the Chu State. That woman was the daughter of King Chu Yu and the ninth princess of Chu State, and if she was wooed, she also attracted the former power of King Chu Yu, and she also took King Song's only child, captured their mother and daughter, and grabbed King Song's handle. Also, she used to be a female general in the alliance of Qi Wei and Chen Shu, and she was the wife of King Qi Mingmei, and she was wooed, and many of the old people of Qi Wei and Chen Shu also entered the Chu army. None of that's the most important thing, though! ”
"Oh?"
"The most important thing, now it seems that it is her younger brother Gongzi who is superb in martial arts and can lead troops with ease!"
"The prince of Chu Guo'an Yi is indeed a character."
"Among the Song army, the fierce generals are like clouds, who is in the Chu State? If there were fierce generals in the Chu State, the disaster of the Seven Kings of the Chu State would not have stalemate for so many years! But now that there is a genius like Gongzi, the fierce generals of the Song Kingdom are not enough. ”
"Yes, in an Anyi city on the bank of Chu Shui, the Song army can't even gnaw alive or dead, and he actually changed generals four times before the battle, and each time he was cut down by the milky and undried son, which is really laughable."
"I heard that the Song and Chu borders are piled up like a mountain, and Chu Shui is dyed red by the blood of the Song army, and the king of Chu is busy looking for a wife for Gongzi Shou, and said that when Gongzi Shou returns triumphantly from the battlefield, he will go to Zhaohuang Palace to get married, and the wedding banquet is prepared for him! This is to blow up King Song! ”
"Hahaha!"
"The countries of Kyushu have never lacked people who are martial artists. Back then, King Wei and King Qi were so martial and shocking, but it was a pity that they died, otherwise I really want to know, with Gongzi's good kung fu, can they beat King Qi and King Wei? All in all, the king of Chu seduced Gongzi's sister in order to accept Gongzi, who had fought with him for the throne of Chu, in a fit of convincing. Therefore, although the king of Chu does not know martial arts, his wisdom should not be underestimated. ”
"Alas, if you don't say it, I almost forgot that there were once loyal and brave people like King Wei and King Qi in the world."
"Dude likes to nag when he drinks, why do you like to sigh blindly when you drink......"
Xue Fan didn't know Liu Ying's life experience, so he naturally listened to it interestingly, and laughed from time to time.
But Liu Ying heard it with mixed feelings, so she could only pretend to be calm.
Shu'er, when Xue Yiren told me about you and King Song, I didn't believe it. But along the way, I have heard passers-by talk about you, and although I don't want to believe it, what can I do? When I was the leader of the Restoration League, I heard others talk about you and King Song, and I still wanted to argue with others at that time, but now I don't want to argue anymore, not because I can't speak, but because I really can't argue. After all, your husband's "bones are cold", you are noble, you don't have to be martyred for your husband, and it is understandable to find a lover. What's more, whether it is the King of Song or the King of Chu, they all have a great friendship with you, and you and your daughter can be taken care of by the two of them, and you can be considered worry-free.
Your husband naturally wants you to have no worries for the rest of your life.
Now that Xiao Dongfang has grown up, he can lead heavy troops to garrison Chu State, and I should be more glad for you without you personally leading troops into battle.
I also put on armor and went into battle, commanding the allies of the four countries, in order to save my life and death, I jumped off the cliff and lost all my martial arts, but even if my father-in-law and I are gone, there are still fierce battles in this world......
Shu'er, after I left, I don't blame you for everything you did.
It's just strange, why is there always gunsmoke in the world where you and I meet?
