Chu State, Yingdu.

On the top of the main hall, Xiong Zhen, the king of Chu, wore a crown and a crown of flat heaven, and sat on the throne.

Hundreds of ministers and doctors of the Chu State sat on both sides, their eyes did not squint, and they looked solemn.

At this time, Xiong Zhen has not yet reached the age of pro-government, so Mrs. Meng Huan is still listening to politics.

In real national affairs, Meng Huan can put forward key opinions, and even be able to override public opinion, make his own decisions, and exercise the power that the king of Chu should have!

Of course, Meng Huan is not the kind of woman who is greedy for power, she has listened to politics for so many years, and is often good at listening to the advice of courtiers, and is as good as a stream.

This made Meng Huan's reputation in the Chu State extremely high!

It's just that Meng Huan is not a perfect woman.

Her biggest stain is that she did not abide by women's morals, and gave birth to a son for Wu Wang Qingji under the fornication with him.

However, this thing is nothing.

The folk customs of this era are quite open, and the ladies of the countries can also raise their faces without having to suffer from deep loneliness, so Meng Huan just indulges it, and the Chu people can still tolerate it.

"The king, the king, the minister, have something to do!"

At this time, Ling Yin Nangwa held the tooth wat in his hand and stood up and said.

"What's the matter, please tell me."

"The minister received a report from the chicken father yesterday, saying that the son who had settled in Wu for many years was victorious, and he was assassinated and Qing Ji failed, so he fled to the chicken father and asked for shelter in my Chu country!"

"What?"

Upon hearing this, the monarchs and ministers of the Chu State were immediately dumbfounded and shocked.

"Wu Wang Qingji was assassinated?"

"It's a pity that it didn't work out, otherwise...... Hmph, the state of Wu will inevitably be in turmoil, and then it will be a godsend for my Chu country! ”

"It's Qingji's child's life, and God helps Wu but doesn't help Chu!"

Regarding the assassination of Qingji, the ministers of Chu State were all gloating.

It's a pity it didn't work out!

This inevitably made them a little regretful.

As we all know, since Qingji succeeded to the throne, he has governed the martial arts, made Wu rich and strong with new laws, and expanded his territory to the outside world, exterminating Gu and Yue, attacking Chu in the east, breaking the princes in the north, subduing the north and south, and expanding the land for more than 1,000 miles!

It can be said that on the basis of the Wu State, Qingji has laid down another territory of the Wu State!

The momentum of expansion is unstoppable!

For Wu Guo, Qingji is a generation of heroes, and he is not a famous monarch in the world.

However, for the nations, Qingji is a ruthless character that is not easy to provoke.

Especially the state of Chu!

After several major battles, the state of Chu has repeatedly lost its troops and lost its cities and land!

If Qingji dies in the assassination, the whole Chu country will definitely be jubilant.

"Ling Yin, who is this son? Is it so bold? ”

Xiong Zhen asked curiously.

If you want to say that the person who hates Qingji the most in the world, Xiong Zhen is definitely one.

Since he succeeded to the throne, he has repeatedly attacked the cities and lands of the Chu State, which has caused serious damage to the Chu State and greatly reduced the national strength.

Moreover, Xiong Zhen was forced to marry Wu Guo and marry his sister-in-law Ji Qiyi, not to mention, his mother Meng Huan also secretly married Qingji Zhufetus......

How can Xiong Zhen, the king of Chu, bear it?

His relationship with Qingji is also very chaotic.

According to the normal relationship, Qingji is Xiong Zhen's brother-in-law, but Qingji has a messy relationship with Meng Huan.

This is equivalent to a mother's remarriage, and Xiong Zhen wants to call Qingji a "false father"!

"The king, it's a long story about Gongzi Sheng."

Nangwa stroked his beard and sighed: "According to the seniority, Gongzi Sheng should also call the king 'uncle'." ”

"Oh? It's the royal family of my Chu country, why did I go to the Wu country? ”

Xiong Zhen asked puzzled.

At this time, Meng Huan, who was sitting behind the screen and listening to the government, couldn't help but have a black face.

She has already guessed the identity of Childe Sheng!

Sure enough, I saw Nangwa say: "The father of Gongzi Sheng is the brother of the king, and the first prince built it." In the past, the first king and the crown prince were not in harmony, so the prince Jian left the Song Kingdom, and then entered Zheng, and was harmed by the Zheng people. ”

"So Gongzi Sheng fled to Wu with the soldiers, and so far, it has been more than ten years!"

Hearing this, King Xiong Zhen's face was quite embarrassed.

When Prince Jian fled, Xiong Zhen had not yet been born, so it was normal not to know about it.

And the ministers above the court, the vast majority of them are people in the know.

For the prince Jian, who was assassinated by traitors and forced to flee, they had some pity in their hearts.

Love House and Wu, such compassion was also transferred to Xiong Sheng by the ministers.

"Second and third sons, this son wants to return to Chu and ask me for protection from the Chu country. The second and third sons think, does the Chu State accept it? ”

Xiong Zhen looked around and asked.

For the experience of Prince Jian and Xiong Sheng's father and son, Xiong Zhen was also sympathetic in his heart.

And his throne has been decided, in the eyes of Xiong Zhen, the king of Chu, Xiong Sheng is not qualified to compete with him for the throne at all.

So there aren't too many worries!

"The king, the minister thinks that he must accept the prince to return to Chu!"

Ling Yin Nangwa said: "In the past, the first king listened to the slanderous words of the minister Fei Wuji and forced the prince to build, so that the prince Jianke died in another country, and the people took pity on him. ”

"Now, his son Sheng failed to assassinate the king of the enemy country and fled back to the Chu State, if the king does not accept it, won't it make the world laugh?"

Hearing this, the ministers stood up and stood up in solidarity.

"King, what Ling Yin said is extremely true."

"Victory is the son of my Chu State, and he has the courage to assassinate the king and kill him, which shows his courage. If the victory can be used by my Chu country, why not be a great talent? ”

"Please accept Gongzi Sheng!"

Nangwa had accepted bribes from Wu State, so he was able to put forward and support Xiong Sheng's proposition.

In that year, in order to unite Qin and control Jin, King Chuping promoted the marriage of the crown prince Xiong Jian and the princess Meng Huan of Qin, and sent Fei Wuji to Qin to welcome his relatives.

Fei Wuji faced Meng Huan's peerless beauty, so he persuaded the lustful King Chuping to marry Meng Huan and confer the title of prince and young master.

He also constantly alienated the relationship between King Chuping and the crown prince, was jealous of the virtuous and jealous, and persecuted the prince's master Wu Hao and Zuo Yin Yinwan, causing Wu Zixu and Bo Yao to flee to the state of Wu, causing great trouble to the state of Chu.

Later, Wu Chu lost the battle for hegemony, and the people resented Fei Wuji, and supported Yin Nangwa to kill Fei Wuji and destroy his clan.

Therefore, Nangwa and Xiong Sheng have no grudges, but may have avenged the latter!

Doing this kind of thing will do no harm to Nangwa.

Not only did he get the generous gift of the bribe of the Wu people, but he also got the favor of Gongzi Sheng, why not?

"Oh no, my lord!"

At this time, Meng Huan, who had been sitting behind the screen, suddenly spoke up.

"Why not, the queen mother?"

Xiong Zhen frowned.

The state of Chu has a "queen", named "queen", but the title of "queen mother" did not appear until the time of the empress dowager Xuan.

Therefore, Xiong Zhen will call Meng Huan the "queen mother", but Meng Huan's identity is the wife of Chu State.
