Chapter 151: Palace Change
Chu State, Yingdu.
Since the king of Chu became seriously ill, the atmosphere in Yingdu has become very depressing, and on the surface it seems to be calm, but if you look closely, you will find that there is obviously a lot of movement between those noble feudal monarchs.
On the other side, the important ministers of the state of Chu were discussing which prince to be the successor, because they were worried about chaos, the troops near Yingdu were required to return to the barracks, and they were not allowed to go out of the camp without the king's edict.
At the same time, in the palace of the king of Chu, the palace guards were well defended. However, these ministers and clans only paid attention to the enthroned princes to prevent these people from causing rebellion, and paid little attention to the nobles and feudal lords who were repossessed of their fiefs and privileges.
After all, more than ten years after the law change, these aristocratic feudal lords have been suppressed and left the center of power.
This state of Yingdu lasted for about half a month, and finally the king of Chu died, and his son Que ascended the throne.
On the other side, the army of Chu was engaged in a battle with the army of Wei. The two-front battle of Wei was involved in a large number of troops, coupled with the sudden dispatch of troops by Chu, Wei was defenseless, and as a result, at the beginning of the war, Chu won successive battles. Next, Zhao and Chu cooperated tacitly, and the two sides attacked Wei in the south and in the north.
The army of Chu went all out to capture the Liangmen Pass, almost cutting off the Wei State in two sections, and the Zhao State also took the opportunity to counterattack the Wei State and capture the two large cities of the Wei State.
Seeing that the situation on the battlefield is very good, as long as he goes further, he will regain the land that was seized by the Wei State more than ten years ago. But at that moment, a messenger arrived in a hurry.
The king of Chu was critically ill.
The Chu army was fighting successively, and the news that the king of Chu was seriously ill came, and Jing Mu looked sad. For the king of Chu, he has a deep affection, the king of Chu gave him absolute trust, let him preside over the law change, during which he was slandered and slandered by countless people, etc., did not make the king of Chu suspicious of him.
Only then was Jing Mu able to calmly display his ambitions, implement changes in the Chu State, and he had to go back for both public and private purposes, and the monarch died, the situation in Korea and China was unstable, and it was no longer suitable for further war.
Jing Mu negotiated peace with Wei with the power of victory, and although he finally ceded some land, he left several key passes. Wei was also relieved to see that Chu was willing to cease fighting.
Without the attack of Chu, Wei also breathed a sigh of relief, and then adjusted the army and fought with Zhao again.
This time the two countries of Wei and Zhao were at war, and the two sides of Wei and Zhao suffered heavy losses, and the alliance of Wei, Zhao and Han Sanjin was completely broken, and Wei could no longer integrate the three Jin to fight together.
Jing Mu stationed a large army on the border to guard against the Wei army, and then came from Xiangyingdu with a light chariot.
Even if Jing Mu didn't stop all the way, he couldn't catch up in the end, and by the time Jing Mu returned to Yingdu, the king of Chu had already passed away.
In a remote mansion in the middle of the Yingdu. The mansion seems to have been uninhabited and dilapidated for many years, but today there are many people in the house.
"Jing Mu is back!"
"The thief has finally returned!"
"Are you up to the end, this is our last chance!"
"Why did you take advantage of the king's happiness to secretly drugged the wine, what are you hesitating about now?"
"Shut up! The king has a sudden hit, and it has nothing to do with us. If anyone dares to talk nonsense again, don't blame the old man for not being emotional! You want to die yourself, don't drag everyone! ”
For a while, everyone in the hall scolded one after another, and the man also knew that he was angry, so he quickly shut up and stopped talking.
"That's it!" In the middle of the hall, as soon as the man in the center spoke, the surrounding noise suddenly disappeared.
"Don't say that again." The man said lightly.
Everyone around him suddenly felt awe-inspiring: "Wow! ”
"You are all gathered here today to deal with Jing Mu."
"Since Jing Mu came to Chu to change the law, all our nobles have been persecuted by him, their fiefs have been seized, their titles have not been hereditary, their money and food have been reduced, and their minions have been seized."
"Who are we? Zhuxia Miao descendants. All of you here, which one is not the ancestor and the most previous monarchs, who overcame thorns and frosts, fought on the battlefield, and made countless meritorious deeds, so that they could be crowned nobles and kings. ”
"For hundreds of years, my Chu country has fought in the south and the north, expanding the territory and opening up the territory, which family has not shed blood for this great Chu? The monarch wants to strengthen the country and change the law, we support it, can there be money and food supply? Do the children of each family do their best? But why are we being persecuted so much? ”
"Have the ancestors of the past dynasties treated meritorious heroes so harshly?"
"What credit has Jing Mu made? It's just that Wei Zhao is fighting among himself, and then he sends troops to sneak attack. We can do the same. ”
"Gentlemen, things are ready to be sent now!"
"Now we have some strength from our ancestors' savings, but if we let Jing Mu implement the mental method for a few more years, we will have no power to fight back at all!"
"Do you want to let the century-old inheritance of your respective families be completely buried in our hands?"
"Can't!" Everyone spoke in unison.
"In that case, then kill Jing Mu!"
"Kill Jing Mu!"
"Kill Jing Mu!"
"Kill Jing Mu!" Everyone made up their minds at this moment.
"Tomorrow's court meeting, I will also participate in the grand court, and I will also participate in the grand court, and there will be no guards around Jing Mu to participate in the great dynasty, only a sharp sword, and when the time comes, I will be able to kill him when the time comes!"
"Tomorrow's dynasty, there are palace guards, how can we kill that Jingmu?"
"I've already bought off the guards, and those guards won't stop me!"
After some deliberation, they quickly left, and the mansion returned to calm again.
The Great Pilgrimage.
In the palace of the king of Chu, the body of the deceased king of Chu was placed in the center of the main hall, ready to be collected, and sent to the tomb under the protection of the minister.
As the most valued minister of the previous king, Jing Mu rushed to the scene, and just after he entered the main hall, the nobles and feudal lords who had been prepared in the main hall all took out bows and arrows from their robes and wanted to kill Jing Mu.
These people had a clear division of labor, and several of them immediately closed the doors and windows of the main hall, while others shouted: "Killing Jing Mu today has nothing to do with others!" ”
Everyone suddenly moved, and the other ministers in the hall and the crown prince Xiong Que were all shocked, and they didn't react at all.
The surrounding guards hurriedly protected the prince and retreated behind the pillars of the main hall.
After Jing Mu saw this scene, his face suddenly changed greatly, and he immediately wanted to escape, but all the exits of the main hall were blocked, and there was no way to escape. When Jing Mu saw this situation, he immediately shouted: "The ministers are in rebellion and plotting to kill my king!" ”
These nobles, nobles, and feudal monarchs shot arrows at Jing Mu one after another, Jing Mu had no way to dodge, he was directly shot into a hedgehog, and the long sword in his hand fell to the ground with a clatter, Jing Mu turned his head with difficulty to look at the corpse of King Chu Mourning, and muttered: "The law change is over."
Then he fell to the ground with a bang and died of exhaustion.
