Chapter 430: The Death of Wu Guoyan's eldest son
"Now, presumably Mi Sheng has controlled the king and the kingdom. He must not dare to risk the condemnation of the world and kill the king. ”
Zixi frowned, and after a moment of silence, he said: "There are tens of thousands of Triumphant Divisions outside the city, and we can't mobilize them without the King's warrant. Maybe Mi Sheng may have even controlled the tens of thousands of soldiers outside the city. ”
This is the worst result Zixi can think of.
Zixi and Shen Baoxu did not have the power to mobilize tens of thousands of troops outside the city, but the life and death of Xiong Zhen, the king of Chu, was uncertain, and he might be controlled by Bai Gongsheng.
At this time, if Bai Gongsheng held Xiong Zhen hostage, it would not be impossible to order Yingdu, Chu Army, and Chu State.
After all, in this haste, no one can tell the right from the wrong.
Zixi and Shen Baoxu had basically determined that Bai Gongsheng had raised an army, but the two had no strength to compete with Bai Gongsheng.
"Kill!"
At this time, the shouts of killing sounded from far and near, from outside the city, Zixi and Shen Baoxu couldn't help but glance at each other, and they both changed color.
What they feared most happened anyway!
The more than 40,000 Chu troops who returned triumphantly had already followed Bai Gongsheng to rebel under unknown circumstances.
"Run! Be sure to escape from Yingdu! ”
Zixi clenched his fists and said in a deep voice: "Bai Gongsheng is in turmoil, unpopular, as long as we escape from Yingdu, and then call on the feudal monarchs from all over the country to gather, we will definitely be able to kill back to Yingdu, rescue the king, turn the tide of the tide, and save the Jiangshan Sheji of my Chu State!" ”
After making up their minds, Zixi and Shen Baoxu finally stopped talking, and after exchanging clothes with their entourage, they changed their disguises and prepared to escape from Yingdu City.
However, the speed of the rebels was very fast, and after taking the various city gates of Yingdu, they closed the city gates and strictly forbade them to enter and exit.
This made Zixi and Shen Baoxu couldn't help but be discouraged for a while.
Seeing that they are about to escape, are they still trapped and dying in Yingdu?
Night falls.
The sound of fighting in the city of Yingdu was still ringing sporadically, and many people fell in pools of blood and died.
Those who are fighting with the rebel soldiers are naturally the private soldiers of the ministers and doctors.
As the saying goes, raising soldiers for a thousand days is a time to use soldiers.
The private soldiers were loyal to their masters, and they paid with their lives to protect them and their families.
Among them, it naturally includes the families of Zixi and Shen Baoxu.
An attendant stepped forward and said to Zixi: "My lord, the rebels are searching from house to house. Mi Sheng offered a reward of 3,000 gold for the heads of the lord and Dr. Shen. ”
"Hehe, Mi Sheng, he can afford us."
Zixi couldn't help but sneer.
However, their current situation is very dangerous.
After Bai Gongsheng's rebels took control of the palace of the king of Chu and the capital of Ying, they closed the city gate and searched for the traces of Zixi and Shen Baoxu in the whole city.
It is conceivable that according to this carpet search of the rebels, the two of them will definitely be found within two days.
"Shen Gongzi, what should I do now?"
Shen Baoxu asked with a frown.
"Don't panic, Doctor Shen."
Zixi squinted his eyes and said, "The huge Yingdu City has become a dangerous city for us now. However, there is a place to go, and it is definitely the safest place to go. ”
"Where is it?"
Shen Baoxu asked curiously.
"Wu Gongziheng's mansion!"
Zixi said slowly: "Mi Sheng, a chaotic minister and thief, can have today, and it is all supported by the Wu people behind his back. Mi Sheng and Wu Guo were in collusion and secretly colluded, and they would definitely not dare to offend Gongzi Heng of Wu State, so the rebels would never dare to search Gongzi Heng's mansion without permission. ”
"This ......"
Shen Baoxu frowned and said: "Shen Gongzi, having said that, we have never had a friendship with Gongzi Heng, how can Gongzi Heng shelter us?" ”
"I've taken care of Gongzi Heng a few times, and I have some friendship."
Zixi sighed and said: "Although Gongzi Heng is young, he is a man who understands righteousness, and he must hate such chaotic ministers and thieves as Mi Sheng. Moreover, Qingji's dealings with Mi Sheng are all in private, and I don't think Gongzi Heng will know about it, so why not? ”
"Good!"
Shen Baoxu nodded in agreement.
Time waits for no man!
After Zixi and Shen Baoxu made up their minds, they took a few of their entourage, avoided the searching rebel soldiers, and rushed to Gongzi Heng's mansion overnight.
Zixi and Wu Heng do have some friendship.
Four years ago, after the battle of Wu Chuji's father, Wu Heng, who was only five years old, was taken as a proton and came to Yingdu as a hostage.
Who is Wu Heng?
He is the first son born to King Qingji of Wu and Queen Ji Ko, the eldest son, the son of Wu State, and the first heir in line from the legal theory of the patriarchal system.
Gongzi Heng has a very high status, and the reason why he will act as a proton and enter Chu as a hostage is that Ji Ko took the initiative to ask for help.
Because Gongzi Heng entered the Yingdu for Wu State, it is really a great achievement.
It's just that I didn't expect this moment, and a full four years have passed!
Forced by the increasingly powerful national strength of Wu State, the Chu people did not dare to treat Wu Heng badly.
At that time, Meng Huan, the national prince who listened to the government, personally ordered that a luxurious mansion be built for Gongzi Heng, not to mention, he would also comfort him during the New Year's holidays and reward him with some luxurious clothes, beautiful jade, money and other things.
It can be said that Wu Heng is quite nourishing in Yingdu.
It's just that the pain of being a proton is only clear to Wu Heng himself!
He's still a kid!
When I was four or five years old, I have never seen my parents before!
Staying in Yingdu, because of Wu Chu's feud, people nearby didn't want to see Wu Heng, which developed Wu Heng's somewhat withdrawn character.
Fortunately, Zixi saw that Wu Heng was very likely to be made the crown prince by Qingji in the future and become the king of Wu, so he has been deliberately befriending Gongzi Heng in the past few years.
Zixi himself was inconvenient to deal with Gongzi Heng, so he let his son Mi Bai become friends with Wu Heng of the same age.
Therefore, now that Zixi is in danger, he can immediately think of finding Gongzi Heng for help.
Wu Heng also really accepted Zixi and Shen Baoxu and let them stay for the time being, so as to avoid the search of the rebels.
However, what they never expected was that their whereabouts were leaked to the rebels by one of their own retinues.
As a result, Xiong Yiyi, who did not know the relationship between his lord Bai Gongsheng and Wu Guo, led thousands of rebel soldiers to surround Gongzi Heng's mansion.
In the huge mansion, there are more than 200 private soldiers belonging to Wu Heng, although they resist hard, they can't change the result.
However, it was their stubborn resistance that annoyed Xiong Yiyi.
Looking at the enemy who fled into a courtyard and stood at a high place to shoot arrows, Xiong Yiyi simply did not stop doing anything, and ordered to set fire to Zixi, Shen Baoxu and others to be burned alive.
It is worth mentioning that Zixi's son Mi Bai happened to live in Wu Heng's mansion tonight.
Under a burst of chaotic arrows from the chaotic army, Mi Bai couldn't dodge and was seriously injured.
"Xiaobai!"
Wu Heng, who was grief and indignation, hurriedly picked up his white body and fled towards a pavilion in the courtyard.
However, Mi Bai, who was seriously injured, did not survive after all and died on Wu Heng's back.
Overnight, this luxurious mansion specially built for Wu Guogongzi Heng was burned to the ground and turned into ruins.
