"No!"

Wu Zixu immediately retorted: "In my opinion, the eldest son is just the king of the guard. There is more than enough to keep it, and there is not enough to make progress! ”

"Now is the world of great contention, the strong are strong, the weak are dead! If you don't advance, you will retreat! ”

"If the eldest son is the prince and inherits the throne of Wu in the future, wouldn't it be a misguided country and a misguided people?"

Hearing this, Sun Wu shook his head and said: "If the eldest son is not the prince, Zixu, in your opinion, among the princes of the king, who is worthy of the great responsibility?" ”

Wu Zixu bowed to Qingji on the handsome throne and said, "The king, the minister belongs to the second son, Wu Xi!" ”

"Young Master Xi has the style of a king, acts decisively, and has been brilliant since childhood. The young son of Xi is obviously more suitable for inheriting the throne than the eldest son! ”

As soon as he heard this, Sun Wu immediately sneered at each other: "Zixu, what you said is also wrong! ”

"Xi Gongzi does have some of the demeanor of a great king, but he is ruthless, good at using tricks, and he was so cunning when he was young, what will happen in the future?"

"Intrigue can't make a big deal!"

"A person who is a king should be as kind-hearted as the eldest son, but he is good at accepting advice and being kind like a stream, rather than blindly being rigid and domineering!"

On the issue of the prince, Sun Wu and Wu Zixu, two good friends, can be described as arguing endlessly.

Whether it is the eldest son Wu Hong or the second son Wu Xi, they actually have a certain degree of character flaws.

Wu Hong treats people tolerantly and has the style of a benevolent monarch, but he seems a little cowardly, and it is not a problem to be a gentleman.

Wu Xi's personality is to inherit more aspects of Qing Ji -

Ruthless and greedy.

However, it is undeniable that Wu Xi is decisive enough to do things, but it is inevitable that he will be a little radical.

In general, Wu Xi has the style of a hero, similar to the King of Shang and Emperor Yang of Sui.

If Qingji hands over Wu Guo to Wu Xi, he will definitely not be able to live in peace.

Because, the state of Wu will either perish because of Wu Xi, or it will become stronger because of Wu Xi!

It's either good or bad, it's extreme!

This is the reason why Qingji has been wavering on the issue of establishing a reserve.

"Bo Yu, what do you think about the matter of Lichu?"

Qingji set his eyes on Bo Ji, who had been silent.

Seeing that Qingji had not said a word, he was good at figuring out his intentions, and he seemed to have guessed Qingji's thoughts, so he smiled flatteringly: "King, in fact, whether it is the eldest son or the eldest son, it is up to the task." ”

"It's just that in the minister's heart, there is a more suitable candidate than the two sons!"

"Who?"

"It's Heng Gongzi!"

Bo said: "Prince Heng was born to the king and queen, and he is the eldest son. Waste grows up and stands young, since ancient times, it has been the way to take trouble! ”

"Establish a successor, establish a long, establish a virtuous, and the minister advocates the establishment of a successor."

After a pause, Bo Yan said slowly: "Heng Gongzi has made great contributions to my Wu State for many years to enter the Chu State. And as the eldest son, if the king wants to stabilize the country, he should be the son of Liheng. ”

"If you set up other sons, I am afraid that people will not be convinced! Please think twice! ”

“……”

Wu Heng's identity as the eldest son is doubtful about his mother.

He is the first son born to Qingji and Queen Ji Qi, and he has an innate advantage.

In the three choices of Liyan, Lichang, and Lixian, Qingji attaches more importance to the latter.

It's just that Qingji also knows that he can't mess around with his own temperament.

For Wu Heng, as a father, Qingji actually doesn't know much.

Because Wu Heng was sent to the State of Chu as a hostage since he was a child, he almost died in the State of Chu.

In the matter of establishing a reserve, Qingji must not be sloppy.

Sun Wu and Wu Zixu didn't know much about Wu Heng's personality, so they didn't say anything.

As the saying goes, no one is perfect, and no gold is perfect.

In fact, Qingji's more than ten sons are not immune to becoming princes.

Long gave birth to nine sons, each of whom was different, but Qingji's sons were all outstanding, which would inevitably make the monarchs and ministers of Wu fall into the problem of choice.

At this time, Qingji couldn't help but shake his head when he saw that the three ministers Sun Wu, Wu Zixu and Bo Ji were still arguing.

Endless!

Qingji immediately took out a blank piece of paper, wrote down a name, and stuffed the blank paper into the bag.

"The candidate for the prince who is not favored by the widow is in this bag......"

Qingji looked at Sun Wu, Bo Kuo and Wu Zixu again, and then said slowly: "Second and third sons, without further ado, the widow plans to let one of you take the bag and return to Wu first. ”

"If the widow dies, open the bag and swear to the people that the widow will succeed him!"

"Wait, who wants to go?"

“……”

Sun Wu and the other three looked at each other and did not speak.

Even Bo Biao, who has always been greedy for life and afraid of death, doesn't want to leave Qingji's side at this time.

You are like green mountains, and I am like pines and cypresses.

Broken bones, never lose!

The four of them have been together for many years and have already formed a deep friendship.

He is also a gentleman, a confidant, and a mentor and friend.

This kind of affection for kings and ministers is incomprehensible to outsiders.

None of them wanted to stay away from their king at a time of peril.

"Boo?"

Qingji looked at the traitorous minister in history who betrayed the country and sought glory.

Bo Tu lowered his head and said, "The king, the minister, I am willing to live and die with the king!" ”

"I am willing to live and die with the king!"

Even Bo Yan is like this, and Sun Wu and Wu Zixu don't need to say more.

Even if they followed Qingji to death, they would not hesitate for a moment.

"Alas!"

Qingji sighed, and said with relief: "Qing and others are loyal to the widow, love the widow, and the widow also knows it well. ”

"However, at this time, if the widow is defeated and dies anywhere, not only will half of the elite division of the Wu Kingdom be lost, but you will wait for ......."

"You are the loyal ministers and good generals of my Wu State, and Fan Li who is far away in Wanxian County to resist the war."

"At least, let the widow be my Wu country, my successor, and my subjects to leave one more great sage!"

This is exactly the good intentions of Qingji.

In the eleven years of his reign, Qingji recruited a large number of talents for Wu Guo, among whom he can be called a great sage, none other than Sun Wu, Wu Zixu, Bo Biao and Fan Li, who were often brought by his side.

Of course, Ji Ran, Wen Chong, Kong Qiu and others who governed the country and the country in Wu are also valuable talents.

With the auxiliary of these people, as long as the successor is not a stupid pig, he is not stubborn and self-serving, and he can listen to the advice of his courtiers, he will definitely be able to maintain the existing national strength of Wu.

"Let's take the lot and decide. For the sake of fairness, those who draw leave and those who stay stay! ”

At this time, Qingji didn't want to be arbitrary, and forced one of Sun Wu, Wu Zixu and Bo Gang to be a "deserter".

"Green Sword Fairy"

Because Qingji knew that this would make their conscience unhappy.

So, Qingji took a brush and wrote on the paper, and all three pieces of paper were written down with one word, and then crumpled into a paper ball.

"Sun Wu, you are the Great Sima, you come first."

"No!"

Sun Wu agreed, and immediately stepped forward and took a paper ball in his hand.

When I opened it, it was a "go" word!
