After the death of Huaizhuang Xianggong, the surrounding states and Zhou countries also breathed a sigh of relief. Although this Huai Duke did not fight much, he won a big victory every time he attacked, and destroyed the Yue State and the Xu State successively.

These two Fang countries are not those small countries, and they are also considered to be powerful countries within a radius of two or three hundred miles among the countries of Bangzhou.

As for the Huai Gong who had just ascended the throne, everyone was more impressed by the beauty of his wife, and felt that the Huai Guild would be obsessed with beauty, so they were all relieved.

The same is true of the state of Chu, the king of Chu Zhuang united with the state of Qin to defeat the state of Jin, dominate the princes, and win the world, but as a result, he conquered the state of Song, and was defeated by the state of Huai in the first war, and even the king of Chu Zhuang died of illness.

King Zhuang died, and his son Kang ascended the throne.

When Xiong Kang ascended the throne, the state of Chu was at a low ebb, and he was very worried about the attack of the Huai state, and the whole state of Chu was very nervous at that time, and it was also under this pressure that Xiong Kang worked hard, first signed an alliance with the Jin state, stopped making peace, and then began to stabilize the royal power and began to deal with internal problems.

At that time, Nan, the uncle of the king of Chu in the Chu State, took advantage of the death of Zhuang Wang Xue to become bigger and ordered Yin for the Chu State. Xiong Kang had to look at his face at that time, which made Xiong Kang, who was the king of Chu, very unhappy, so after the external environment stabilized, he began to deal with him.

Xiong Kang, the king of Chu, took advantage of the time of the court to ambush the soldiers on both sides of the main hall, and when Zinan came to the court, the soldiers swarmed him, captured him and killed him, and swept away his henchmen.

Xiong Kang, the king of Chu, also completely controlled the power of Chu.

Xiong Kang, the king of Chu, did not let up because of this, and continued to form an alliance with Qin, while conquering the small Yiren states in the south, seizing the population and restoring national strength. With Xiong Kang's efforts, the state of Chu recovered quickly.

At the same time, Xiong Kang's improved taxation made the tax more synergistic, reduced the burden of the people, reformed the military system, and the development of more than ten years made the Chu State prosperous again.

This Xiong Kang is also a rare Ming Jun, but it is a pity that most of the Ming Jun do not live long.

In the fifteenth year of King Chu Lie, King Lie.

There is merit to reassure the people, to be virtuous and to obey the industry, and to have great merit.

King Lie died, and his son ascended the throne. Just like the vast majority of Ming monarchs do not live long, many of Ming Jun's sons are also mostly rebellious, and they are not very old, and the lord is suspicious.

Originally, the secret guard of Huai State was also going to do something secretly to cause turmoil in Chu State, but before the secret guard could make a move, King Lie's younger brother Xiong Ju couldn't help it, killed his nephew, and then set himself up as the king.

This action was extremely fast, and many people had not yet reacted, and the King of Chu had already been replaced.

The son of King Ryū was killed by Kumaju and seized the throne, and the coup did not cause much shock. Although King Lie was a Ming monarch, he reformed the interests of the nobles and nobles, and did not appease him later, so King Lie's son Xiong Bei was killed, and the nobles quickly recognized Xiong Ju.

After all, this kind of royal turmoil has appeared many times in the history of the Chu State.

After Xiong Ju ascended the throne, most people recognized his status, but only Wu Hao was very dissatisfied. Wu Hao is the minister of Lie Wang Tuogu, the minister of Chu State, Xiong Ju deliberately branched it out before he started, and when Wu Hao got the news and hurried back, Xiong Ju had already ascended the throne to inherit the throne.

Seeing Xiong Bei being killed, Wu arrogantly scolded angrily above the main hall: "Zhuzi, kill the king with ministers, beasts, kill nephews with uncles, and punish them for their crimes!"

Xiong Ju was furious, at this time he had already controlled the power of the Chu State, and directly ordered the guards to arrest Wu Hao.

"The widow respects you as a veteran of the Three Dynasties, and has made a lot of contributions to the Chu State, so this gives you a chance, as long as you admit your mistakes and surrender to the widow, the widow will forgive your sins!" Kumaju said.

Wu Hao was furious: "I am the minister of King Lie's entrustment, how can I surrender to you, the one who killed the king, I only hate that I have not been able to fulfill the previous king's entrustment to take care of King Bei, and if you want to kill you, you will kill me, don't want me to submit!"

Xiong Judang was about to imprison Wu Hao, and sent people to prepare to kill all the Wu family. Fortunately, someone informed in advance, and after Wu Zixu's son Wu Zixu learned about it, he fled overnight and came to Huaiguo.

Xiong Ju didn't catch Wu Zixu, so he killed all the rest of the Wu family. After Wu Zixu fled to Huaiguo, he learned that the Wu family was wiped out by Xiongju

and immediately swore revenge.

Wu Zixu fled to Huai because he knew that the only one in the world who had the ability to help him take revenge was Huai State. After escaping to Huaiguo, Wu Zixu immediately wanted to go out of Shihuaiguo, but he did not know each other in Huaiguo, and there was no way to recommend him, so he could not enter Shihuaiguo, let alone meet the monarch.

Fortunately, Wu Zixu found that there was no recommendation in Huaiguo, and he wanted to be a leader without a background, and the best way was to go through the school palace, so Wu Zixu went to the school palace to study.

Huaiguo Academy will conduct an assessment every year, all disciples of the Academy can participate, as long as the assessment is passed, it will be recommended to Huaigong, and finally after being recognized by Huaigong, you can enter the office.

This is also a passage for those who have never met talents and have no background identity to ascend to the sky in one step. Of course, there are not many people who can really walk this path.

Wu Zixu was determined to take revenge, so he naturally would not be stumped by this difficulty, and pawned the sword and a jade pendant he brought when he fled from home for daily use, and then went to the Huaiguo Xue Palace.

......

"Your Majesty, this is the roster of those who have passed the assessment in this year's Academy." A clerk handed the bamboo slip with both hands.

Wang Qi stretched out his hand to take the bamboo slip and asked casually, "In this assessment, are there any outstanding ones?"

"There is a Chu countryman, Wu Zixu is outstanding and ranks first, and the others are far behind." The clerk said respectfully.

Wang Qi suddenly became interested: "Chu people? How could the people of Chu come to our Huai country?"

You must know that there have been several major wars between Chu and Huai, with heavy casualties, and the offices and nobles of Chu are very hostile to Huai, and basically few people come to Huaiguo Academy, let alone Shihuai.

"I heard that his family was wiped out by the King of Chu, and the ministers don't know whether it's true or not."

"Alright, you go down!" Wang Qi waved his hand to tell everyone to retreat, and then a secret guard came out of the corner.

"Have you ever checked this Wu Zixu? But the female cadres of the Chu State are fine?" Wang Qi asked questions while reading the book.

"Your Majesty, it has been checked, Wu Zixu is the second son of Wu Hao, Wu Hao was destroyed by Xiong Ju because he scolded Xiong Ju for killing his nephew and usurping the throne, only Wu Zixu was able to escape, and he came to Huai to break Chu with the help of the power of our Huai State."

"Unless she can really ignore the hatred of destroying the sect and be a woman of the Chu State!"

"Wu Hao, he is also a minister, a loyal man, it's a pity." Wang Qi shook his head, not too concerned.

"Chu State, this order Yin inheritance law has started again!"

"Send someone to invite Wu Zixu, and I want to take the school exam in person."
