On May 17 of the twelfth year of the Great Politics, Chu Zihang, the king of Huai'an, was violent, and on the third day of September of the same year, the general Chu Tiangang, the king of Jibei, was seriously injured and died, at the same time, the front line was in an emergency, and the combined forces of Mingsha Mountain and Dongduo were assembled in Longshi Fort, Changlin, Baiyu, Shuying, Huxia, Xiling, etc. responded one after another, and there were rebellions in many places. What is even more disturbing is that the internal court of the original factions has also begun to surge.

Under such circumstances, Chu Yuxing did three extremely important things: negotiating peace with the north, promoting Chu Tianxun to general, Shang Shuling leading both internal and external military, and hiring mercenaries to win people. Among them, the fastest effect is undoubtedly the last one. However, these cruel killers did not go to the front line, but secretly raided the strongholds of various rebels, and used the most cruel means to eliminate these rebels. According to later statistics, the number of people slaughtered in this operation, including civilians, exceeded 300,000, and it can be said that it was a heroic massacre. But the effect was also remarkable, and in just a few months, stability was restored in the country, albeit as a forced submission. At the same time, within the imperial court, Chu Tianxun also adopted a more radical approach, indiscriminately attacking the three major families involved in the factional struggle. In this political upheaval, most of the senator-level figures were forced out of the wilderness, and many were exiled and imprisoned. made the whole child, almost everyone was in danger, and they couldn't live in fear. This also gave Chu Yuxing the name of a tyrant, and Chu Tianxun was compared to a traitorous minister who brought disaster to the country and the people.

"To save the dead, we must use fierce medicine, and to help the crisis should be used giants, when life and death are at stake, I still want to use wolfberries, ginseng soup, etc., with the hands of children"? Chu Yuxing faced the Zuodu Yushi Silva, who was kneeling on the ground at the bottom of the stairs, and reprimanded loudly.

"Your Majesty is reasonable, but although the fierce medicine can revive the dead, if the medicine is too violent, An Zhi will not be born and die? Although giants can help the needy, if they use too much force, they will still lead to collapse." Silva was prostrate on the ground, but the sound shook the roof tiles: "Now, Your Majesty uses shameless people to kill his own people. Use despicable and shameless people to exclude dissidents, and set up prisons on a large scale, so that the people of the world are panicked and there is no moment of peace. His Majesty did not listen to him, he did not see it, and his ministers could not bear to see the foundation of the first emperor ruined.

Chu Yuxing has been accustomed to hearing these terrifying words these days, but he still can't help but be furious, he raised his hand, eager to strangle this disrespectful person.

"Stand down! You step down for me!" He trembled for a long time before he shouted angrily.

But Zuodu Yushi was still lying there as if he hadn't heard it, and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty inherits the legacy of the previous emperor, and you should take the first emperor as the law, and you must not go against the will of the people and bring about your own destruction." In the past, King Li of Zhou appointed Wei Wu to punish the law severely, so that the people did not dare to speak, and the road was blind, and he died in the middle of the road; The king of Shang used Fei Zhong and You Hun to kill loyal ministers and Yuan Xianliang, and finally died in Lutai, and the country was ruined. See the past and the present, and know the near with the distance. I hope that Your Majesty will open up the Holy Hearing, recruit virtuous people, and reform your ways, then the country can turn from danger to peace, and Your Majesty can also become a generation of wise monarchs."

"So, I'm a faint king now"? Chu Yuxing laughed angrily and asked coldly.

"Your Majesty is wise and benevolent, and those who have not been eliminated are violent. I hope that Your Majesty will read more useful books, think more about beneficial things, and get close to those who are not profitable, or you may have few restraints."

It took a lot of effort for Chu Yuxing to calm down his anger, and he knew very well in his heart that this kind of argument was meaningless. The reason why he wastes so much time arguing with them every day is partly to make them understand what he is doing and thus change this isolated situation, and on the other hand, he does not want to be infamous for refusing to give advice.

"Let's go down", he sighed, and said with a solemn face: "The state has a minister, there is no danger of death, the secretary and others speak for the country, not for the sake of personal planning, they are really the pillars of the country. As he spoke, he winked and asked the little eunuch to help him up.

Of course, Silva knew that this was just a perfunctory statement, but he had to take it seriously, and he had to take some virtuous monarchs and masters as an analogy, and he also pretended to agree, so that a gentleman and a minister acted in a role play that deceived each other with emotion, and it was the end of the game.

"Is General Oh Shixun coming"? After Zuodu Yushi Silva retreated, Chu Yuxing asked the deacon and eunuch of the day.

"I've been waiting in the study for a long time."

Chu Yuxing nodded and ordered to set up the imperial study.

"What was the situation? How did General Ding Jianwei die for his country"?

He never heard a complete account of the defeat ahead. This is mainly due to the fact that there are not many people who have escaped from it, and they are all in a panicked situation. Originally, Chu Tiangang might have said it in detail, but unfortunately he didn't wake up until he died. And the generals who followed him were too low-level, and it was impossible for him to ask in person, so he could only compare some chapters and find out the real part from them.

"They used a burst egg", Wu Shixun said this, looked at Chu Yuxing, he nodded, and motioned for him to continue.

"We didn't realize this until we broke out of the city." That scene at that time made him still frightened when he thought about it, and his voice couldn't help but tremble.

"I was drinking with a couple of military prostitutes when the guards brought in a man. At that time, I thought it was very strange, because the people in the city had already been killed by us, and even if there were fish that slipped through the net, it was impossible for them to come out and find their own death." When he said this, he knew that his words were vulgar, and he hurriedly stopped.

"What's next"? Chu Yuxing listened carefully and didn't care about his words.

"I realized at that time that this man was anything but ordinary, and I immediately had a secret conversation with him. He said that his surname was Xiang, called Xiang Zhili, and he was originally a counselor under the command of Lu Yuanhang, the king of Wuling, because he knew an extremely important secret, he was suspected by Lu Yuanhang, and wanted to kill him, so he escaped, and there was no way out, so he defected to us. I asked him what that important secret was, but he refused to say it, saying that he wanted to meet General Ding Jianwei and tell him in person. Because the matter was so important, I did not dare to make a decision on my own, so I reported it to the general, and the general immediately received him."

The horrific scene resurfaced before his eyes:

"I have seen the general with a salute"! Xiang Zhili knelt on one knee and saluted Ding Jianwei.

"You are the counselor of the road voyage"? Ding Jianwei is high and complacent, how could he take a defector in his eyes at this time?

"Yes, the villain was his counselor."

"Well, where is he now"?

"Either I'm back in Kyoto, or it's nearby!" When he answered, his tone was unusually firm, making people feel that every word he said was loud.

"Just around the corner"? Ding Jianwei laughed: "Where? The General's Mansion or the South Gate, the North Gate"? After he laughed, he continued to ask Xiang Zhili: "I heard, you know some of his secrets"?

"Yes, an important secret".

"Can you tell me, then, what it is"?

"No, the general will see it with his own eyes in a moment." His calm attitude made Wu Daxun feel a little creepy, but Ding Jianwei didn't seem to be aware of it, and still said sarcastically: "However, I still want to know what it is."

"A fire of vengeance from hell"! As he said this, his eyes also fired.

"Protect the General"! Wu Shixun finally heard the meaning of his words, and with an order, the guards under the tent immediately drew their swords out of their sheaths, several people surrounded Xiang Zhi, and several people stood in front of Ding Jianwei.

Xiang Zhili suddenly laughed, and after laughing, he looked at Ding Jianwei with fierce eyes: "The famous Destruction Division, and the equally famous General Ding Jianwei, are all going to be buried in Qiongsang City today, which is really the happiest thing!" Today, let me be a hell of a guide for you!"

-- At some point, he ignited the explosives hidden on his body, and an earth-shattering explosion instantly blew up all the people present into a rain of blood, and the general's mansion was razed to the ground. If Wu Daxun hadn't been the first to discover the danger and run out of the General's Mansion in advance, he would have been blown into powder, even so, the air flow of the explosion still lifted him twenty or thirty meters away, leaving him seriously injured.

"Well, what about the troika"? From Chu Yuxing's face, no expression could be seen, and no one knew what he was thinking in his heart.

"General Luo Zhenyu transported them out, but they were robbed by the Dondorians at Dragonstone Fort."

Chu Yuxing nodded, and then let him retreat.
