Chapter 477: The Choice of the Capital City of Jing Kingdom
There is only one Chu country in the world!
This is already Xiong Zhen's last bottom line.
Qingji didn't dwell on Xiong Zhen on this issue.
"Good!"
Qing Ji chuckled and said, "King Chu...... No, Duke of Chu, the widow can call the shots, east of Qingfa Shui, for Jing State, west of Qingfa Shui, for Chu State. Are you satisfied?"
Xiong Zhen nodded silently and did not speak.
When Zhou became the king, he posthumously crowned the descendants of the previous generation of heroes, so Xiong Yan, the great-grandson of Xiong Xiong, became the viscount, established the Jing State in the Jingshan area, and built the capital in Danyang.
Therefore, Jing State is actually the old name of Chu State.
Jing Chu Jing Chu, nothing more than that!
At this time, Qingji said slowly: "Duke Chu, don't hide it, Wu Zixu, Bo Yan and other ministers and doctors ask you to be a slave in Wu for three years to show your submission."
"However, the widow thinks that this is a loss of your identity, so he excuses himself."
"The intention of the widow is also to let Shen Zhuliang, Zixi, and Shen Baoxu enter Wu as hostages and serve my Wu country. I don't know what Chu Gong wants?"
As soon as he heard this, Xiong Zhen immediately hated his teeth, and said, "King Wu, how can you agree to such harsh conditions?"
"Forgive me!"
Xiong Zhen immediately turned his head, looking like he would rather die than give in.
Seeing this scene, Qingji was also a little funny.
Xiong Zhen, after all, it's still too tender!
However, Xiong Zhen is indeed more witty and smart, and he can react immediately, Qingji This is to cut off future troubles, so that Chu State can only serve behind Wu Guo from now on, and cannot backstab Wu Guo.
As we all know, in order to strengthen a country and make great efforts, in addition to the need for a wise king, it is also inseparable from the help of capable ministers.
There is no doubt that Zixi, Shen Zhuliang and Shen Baoxu are all ministers of the Chu State, if they are all asked to go by the Wu State, why should Xiong Zhen work hard to revive the Chu State in the future?
Therefore, in this matter, Xiong Zhen must not regress!
He still wants revenge after all!
But Qingji didn't mind giving up this condition.
After all, the reason why he asked Shen Zhuliang and the others was just to test Xiong Zhen.
Qingji knew that a big war would break out between Wu and Chu in the future.
And that battle is bound to be the battle of exterminating Chu!
Even if Xiong Zhen has the heart to enrich the country and strengthen the army, and there is the help of Shen Zhuliang, Zixi, Shen Baoxu and other loyal ministers of the Chu State, it is difficult to resist this encounter.
Qing Ji will not do the thing of raising tigers, but he must compromise now.
……
The next day, Qingji and Xiong Zhen were in the forbidden palace in Suicheng to make a national document.
It is bounded by Qingfa Shui, and the east is assigned to the Jing State, and the west is assigned to the Chu State.
The state of Chu called the state of Wu a tribute, and surrendered himself to the title of "Duke of Chu", and internally he could be called the king.
Wu Guo put back all the ministers and doctors, including Xiong Zhen, Shen Zhuliang, Zixi, and Mi Ji, and Fan Li and Xiong Yiyi, who had been captured by the Qin army, were also released.
The Qin army returned home, and Qingji personally operated the division of the city land for the nine kingdoms of Cai, Xu, and Zhong Wu, who followed the Wu State to attack Chu this time.
The small is a 30-mile radius, and the large is a 50-mile radius.
Countries that do not actually have borders can only take an enclave and send ministers to govern and garrison troops.
However, these cities and lands were essentially under the rule of the Wu State.
Because of the vassal state of Wu, its ruling ministers are all Wu people, and even its country is garrisoned by Wu troops.
Qingji's strategy is just boiling frogs in warm water, and one day, the Wu Kingdom will replace its nine vassal states and mix the territory into one.
That being the case, why should Qingji be too stingy now?
After doing these things, Qingji did not immediately return to Wu, but thought about the next internal affairs of Jing.
Bai Gongsheng died, leaving only Mu Ji, an orphan and widow.
The key is that Bai Gongsheng's so-called son is actually Qingji's illegitimate son.
For his own children, how can he be treated badly?
So, Qingji specially found Shi Fan Li, the imperial historian Wu Zixu and Tingwei Bo to discuss matters in the palace of Suicheng.
"Second and third sons, now the war is over. However, the new establishment of Jing Guo is in ruins, and there are many problems that need to be solved."
Qingji sat on the throne, looked around, and said, "The widow has sent people back to Jinling not long ago to bring Mu Ji and Wu Jiang's mother and son to Jingdi."
"The meaning of the widow is to establish Wujiang as the Duke of Jing, and Mu Ji will listen to the government, but where is the country of Jing better?"
Hearing this, Wu Zixu thought secretly for a moment, and then said, "King, the minister thinks that the capital of Jing Kingdom can be set at his disposal."
"Now the two countries of Jing and Chu are bounded by Qingfa Shui, and everywhere is the border, but the main force of the Chu army has been broken, and there is no strength to fight."
"The capital of Jing is in Sui, and it is also the important town of my Wu country, and it will be an outpost for sending troops to destroy Chu in the future."
"Jing Gong guards the country, but the Chu people dare not go west."
Upon hearing this, Qingji bowed his head slightly and did not speak.
Fan Li, who was standing on the side, shook his head and said, "It's not appropriate."
"Great King, although the state of Chu is in tatters now, it will not dare to go east for a few years, or even more than ten years, but with the Duke of Jing with you, it is dangerous after all."
"The minister thinks that the capital of Jing State can be set at the river or Xi along the Huaishui River, where the Cai State is adjacent to the north, and if there is a war together, then my Wu Guozhou Division can respond as soon as possible to protect Jing Guo."
Qingji nodded noncommittally, then looked at Bo Bi's body again, and asked, "Bo Bi, what do you think about this?"
"My lord, the minister agrees with the young uncle's proposition."
Bo Yu Zhengse said: "Using the national capital as a border city, although it can have a certain deterrent effect on the Chu people, but after all, it is dangerous."
"Please think twice, the King!"
Should the capital of Jing be built in a relatively safe place, or should it be used as an outpost of Jing and Chu to deter the Chu people?
These two choices have both advantages and disadvantages for the nascent Jing Kingdom.
The hinterland of the Chu State, whether it is the Nanyang Basin or the Jianghan Plain, has become dilapidated because of the invasion of war.
Every household does not have much food in stock, not to mention, there are very few young and middle-aged men, and there is not one in ten.
It can be described as a vegetarian in every family!
Compared with the state of Chu in the west, the situation in the state of Jing in the east is better.
Because the place of fierce fighting was mainly in the hinterland of the Chu State, the land of the cities east of Qingfashui was relatively not so badly damaged.
Therefore, in the next ten years, if Jing and Chu develop people's livelihood at the same time, Chu will be inferior to Jing.
And once the state of Chu relaxes, with the fertile Jianghan Plain and the Nanyang Basin, the development space of the state of Chu will be greater, and the state of Jing will be weak.
However, as a barrier to the west of Wu, Jing can now be compared to Chu.
More than ten years?
It is impossible for Qingji to give the State of Chu so much time to work hard, let the State of Chu recover the lost territory, realize Zhongxing, and then oppose the State of Wu.
"The capital of Jing Kingdom is set to follow."
After some careful consideration, Qingji made such a decision.
