Chapter 224

Yin Ji took the bamboo slip, and the dark red handwriting came into view.

There is no doubt that this is written in blood.

Chu Shu wrote in the desperate book that he heard that King Wei and Zhu Guo proton had escaped, and felt that this matter was unusual, so he went to his brother's study to search, and accidentally found King Wei's private seal, and knew that this matter was inseparable from his brother.

Thinking of the defeat on the front line, he was very desperate, and searched all the books that his brother usually read, and found in an ancient book that there was a witch temple that worshiped phoenix birds outside Jiangling City, the former capital of Zhuguo.

Hundreds of years ago, once the country encountered natural disasters and man-made disasters, it would not only sacrifice the three emperors and five emperors, the ancestor Zhurong and the ancestors, but also specially sacrifice the phoenix.

However, due to the collapse of rituals in the past hundred years, and the abolition of the tradition of human martyrdom by the Zhao Kingdom a hundred years ago, the sacrificial process was streamlined.

Zhu Guo and Zhao Guo had a lot of exchanges, and they also learned a few points, and gradually abolished many cumbersome and less important sacrifices, and the witch temple that used to worship phoenix birds became extremely deserted.

Therefore, when Gangneung was destroyed, the army of Zhao did not destroy this dilapidated witch temple, it still existed, but it became a folk worship.

Chu Xuan wrote in the letter that he thought that Chu Qi did not necessarily have the determination to summon the phoenix bird, but decided to take a desperate gamble.

He knew that Chu Qi had betrayed the king's trust, and what he had done was difficult to do.

As the feudal monarch of Zhaoguo, Chu Qi's younger brother, his brother made such a heinous mistake, but he didn't know that it was his dereliction of duty.

Chu Xuan is willing to use the death of himself and his heirs to pay for the loss of the front line, and only hopes that the war on the front line will end as soon as possible, and the king will dominate the world and complete the great cause of the ages.

Seeing the end, Yin Ji was shocked: "He killed his own son? ”

Yin Changying said casually: "All sons." ”

The Wei family was involved in a major rebellion, and there were two ways to be demoted or exiled.

The royal family, being demoted to Chengdan is a great humiliation, and Yin Changying will never do this; And exile is even more impossible, is not the sky high to let the birds fly, let them be rescued by the faithful?

Therefore, Chu Qi's treason is actually destined for his sons and daughters to die.

Of course, Yin Changying would not feel sorry for the lives of a few cousins and cousins, but Chu Shu's death made this matter tricky.

Zhu Guo's royal family, only these two brothers are left, Chu Xuan's vein has been broken, if all Chu Qi's heirs are killed, won't all Zhu Guo's royal family be wiped out?

Although the two sides are already enemy countries, it is not impossible to kill them all, but Chu Huan's desperate letter was written as a courtier of Zhaoguo.

This kind of behavior is tantamount to a betrayal of Chu Qi.

Chu Qi was worthy of the royal status, but he became a traitor to Zhaoguo.

Chu Shu gave up his royal status, but he was loyal to Zhao until the last moment, and died to atone for his brother's sins.

No matter what angle you have, you can't let such a loyal minister go away, right?

After the end, it must be passed on to prevent the incense from being cut off and no one offering blood food.

Who can Chu Shu succeed?

His own brother's son, of course.

"He killed all his sons just to save the life of one of his nephews?" Yin Ji didn't know what to say.

Of course, she knew that in this era, this kind of practice was worthy of being praised, praised, and even remembered in history, but deep down she hated such actions.

Your child's life is not yours, so why should you make a decision for them?

Although Chu Xuan didn't ask for a word in the desperate book, isn't this practice just to coerce Yin Changying with death, not to force him to pardon Chu Qi's heir?

Seeing Yin Xi's displeasure, Zheng Gao immediately said: "Leping Jun ordered the sons to take the poisoned wine, the young son was too young, he went to pour it with his own hands, Xu couldn't bear it, and only poured a small sip." This son first held his breath, and then, for some reason, he spit out most of it, but he still had breath. But after this catastrophe, this son is extremely weak, and he may die at any time, or he will become an idiot. ”

The princes of the DPRK and China have already quarreled over this matter.

This child is less than three years old, and this is the case again, what if he dies halfway? Or should you leave a guarantee.

But Chu Chu still has a son alive, but he wants to "pass" his brother's son as an heir, not to mention the issue of inheritance of property in the future, why should Chu Qi's son escape responsibility?

Yin Changying asked casually: "What is the intention of Auntie?" ”

"I don't care about it right now." Yin Cheng said indifferently, "I only care about the 200,000 soldiers on the front line. ”

Chu Qi is willing to be martyred for Zhu Guo, of course she admires this integrity.

But if it is such arrogance, it will come at the cost of 200,000 people being betrayed and even killed.

Human life is with her, and it is not so light.

As soon as the words fell, the two of them looked to the east together.

Fan Chen, I'm back.

After receiving Yin Changying's order, Fan Chen set out from Weiguo and used the magic power of "earth" to shuttle between the earth.

Weiguo was originally closer to Jiangling than Wangdu, and there was no drag from his family behind him, so it only took half a day to rush to Jiangling County.

"The roads in Gangneung are smooth and clean, and the houses are smooth, without any signs of burning or destruction by magical power. Only the pedestrians disappeared. ”

"Chen walked all over the most prosperous market in Jiangling County, and found that the tofu stall was still steaming, and on the snack stall, there were still half-eaten steamed cakes that fell on the table."

"There was only one mountain outside the city, which was cracked and filled with rubble. Standing on the edge of the crack, Chen could sense the remnants of an extremely terrifying aura, which should be the place where the phoenix bird was sealed. ”

Fan Chen stood in front of Yin Changying and Yin Cheng, 1510, and explained the results of the two-day investigation clearly: "The minister went to the track in Jiangling County again, and found that the track was destroyed because the mountain peaks on the side were broken and the gravel fell between the canyons, completely blocking the road. ”

"But the landslide is not caused by witch power, but by a very strong external force that causes the landslide."

Hearing this, Yin Ji already knew the ability of the phoenix bird.

What this phoenix bird is manipulating is definitely not natural energy.

But it is impossible for the forces of nature, regardless of the wind and fire, to make all the people in the city disappear in an instant, silently, and the objects remain the same.

The so-called black flame should be the embodiment of the phoenix's ability, but it is not a real flame.

At this time, she heard Yin Changying say lightly: "Chu Qi can't control this phoenix bird. ”

Yin Cheng nodded: "I also have this intention." ”

If Chu Qi can control the phoenix bird, with the momentum of the phoenix bird, wouldn't it be good to directly make Jiangling belong to him?

In this way, the whole of Jiangling has become traitorous people, even if Zhaoguo recovers this land in the future, the rebellious people will be relegated to the share of Chengdan, and these people can only obediently serve Chu Qi in order not to be criminals.

Jiangling is a large county, the population of the county is more than 300,000, and there are 200,000 troops, which is equivalent to Zhu Guopingbai adding 500,000 people, this account, Chu Qi will not count?

Unless, he can't control the phoenix's behavior at all.
