It's miserable.

Strong people don't cry easily.

Although he didn't directly hang a sign around his neck and write the word faint, he directly said that he was a faint gentleman, and the effect was not bad, right?

But but...

Zishou looked at Wen Zhong with a dark expression, what else can he do with Uncle Wen?

On second thought, the situation is actually not too bad.

There are a thousand business kings in the eyes of a thousand people, and people have different positions and different views.

Excluding the courtiers and soldiers who are screaming like chicken blood, what they did just now must be a faint king.

At least in the eyes of the princes, it must be a big faint king.

In addition, Wu Zhu, who had no room for maneuver because of the burning of books and witches, waited for the princes to come out with a court song, and united with Wu Zhu, who was good at fanning people's hearts, to conspire to do something for traitors in their respective territories, and to plot rebellion and secession and self-reliance.

It seems like.... Earn blood!

Even if you want to buckle upside down, there are only a few civil and military officials, where can they compare with the princes from all walks of life?

That is, the difference between earning more and earning less!

Zishou looked up, thunder, rain or something, it was long gone, and the sky was bright and clear.

He looked at the princes and said indifferently: "A while ago, there was a saying that the song of the dynasty was not enough to meet the people's hearts, and I guess all the secretaries knew it, right?"

The princes, who were already frightened by Wen Zhong, were even more shocked when they heard this, isn't this clearly talking about themselves?

If you are too ambitious, don't break your stomach.

King Wu looked at the frosty face of the King of Xu, and then looked at the body of E Chongyu still hanging on the halberd.

The jade on his waist was still swaying, and blood was running down the halberd.

He shuddered.

The king wants to kill them all?

Quite possibly.

In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through his mind.

Just won the title of King Wu, and before you can enjoy the happy life, you are going to die?

Although he still has a son, even if he dies in Chaoge, someone will take revenge, but he is aggrieved!

The happy life belongs to the son, but it is the death of oneself.

It's not that he doesn't love his son, it's mainly that he doesn't think it's worth it.

His territory is next to Yuedi, Yuehou died, Yuehou's son and righteous son died, and Yuedi was a delicacy that everyone coveted.

Chaoge is too far away to reach the whip, and the princes who are close to Yue are only the king of Yue besides him.

King Yue is a scumbag, his power is worse than his own, the more easily he can start, the bigger the territory, the more beauties, the more money, when the time comes, he will be a veritable King Wu.

Considering the good life he may enjoy in the future, King Wu thought about it again and again, should he directly surrender?

Chonghou Hu, Jiang Huan Chu, and Su Hu aren't all good?

It's a big deal to abide by the law and keep a low profile, I believe that in the name of King Wu, you can get some preferential treatment more or less, you have a daughter, and you can also enter the palace to serve the king and become a relative.

Thinking of this, King Wu immediately made a decision, the other princes can only do so because of their interests, but he is different, he has a king's name, and there is a vacant territory nearby, and the benefits of Toucheng are much more cost-effective than taking the risk to fight against the king!

It's just that as soon as he was about to speak, Zishou continued: "The things in the dream are the things in the dream after all, and today's things are only a dream, let the Qing disperse, leave this year's congratulatory gifts, go back to their respective homes, and come back next year." ”

Kill them all or let the tiger return to the mountain, the answer is simple.

Killing one or two is faint, and killing ten hundred is a storm.

What's more, who will scold themselves for killing them?

Moreover, the civil and military officials will be wrong, obviously they can't continue, otherwise no matter how they kill, in the eyes of the hundred officials, it is also the wise and martial king who deliberately bears the infamy and cuts the grass to the roots.

The ministers looked at each other, the king was stupid, right?

have completely torn their faces with the princes, don't you just take the opportunity to end it in a pot?

Even if the inexplicable benevolence of the King suddenly pops up again, and he can't bear to kill the killer, he has to let them be a companion with Ji Chang!

Without the boss, the princes have no time to take care of themselves, maybe there will be a struggle for power and profit, Chaoge has a chance to breathe, he can take the opportunity to enter the Chu land, expand the territory, the city around the rich oil, a lot of mines, and Sanshan Pass can also be used as horns.

But the king waved his hand and let people go.

Seeing that Xuanniao Wei and the guards didn't move, Zi was reprimanded and said, "All stand down and let Zhuqing go home." ”

The one just now was not without benefits, at least it increased his prestige among the hundred officials, and if he issued this kind of edict at an ordinary time, it would inevitably provoke a bunch of people to dissuade him.

"Stand down!"

Yin was ruined, so he reluctantly led people to retreat.

The guards surrounding the princes dispersed, but the princes did not move.

Countless people wondered, could there be a conspiracy in this?

Zishou frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Do you want me to give you a ride?"

It's also a grind to run, forget it, let you feel at ease.

"I have sworn by the Zhuqing, since this is the case, I also swear, the ancestors and the ancestors are above, spread my will, withdraw the defenders from the four gates of the song, and do not close the city gate for three days and three nights!"

The ministers were in an uproar.

As soon as these words came out, the king undoubtedly really planned to let the princes go.

Let the tiger return to the mountain, and the future will be endless!

Zi was pressed and ignored them, and drove back to the palace directly.

Seeing the king go away, the princes made up their minds, although they didn't know why, but the king let them live, out of the song, the sky was high and the birds flew.

The ministers could only watch the princes leave, but Wen Zhong wanted to forcibly leave the princes with the majesty of the Taishi, but was stopped by Chonghou Hu.

"Taishi. Chonghou Hu pulled Wen Zhong and shook his head slightly.

"Hmm, isn't Your Majesty's move meaningful?" Wen Zhong was suspicious, others couldn't pull him, but Chonghou Hu could.

Chonghou Hu nodded, lightly pointed to King Wu and King Yue in the crowd, and explained: "Your Majesty has sealed King Wu and King Yue, and now Marquis Yue is dead...."

I see!

Wen Zhong suddenly realized, just now he cited the three sides of the soup net, in order to illustrate the trouble of the princes caused by Ming Jun's too kindness, but it is not advisable to open the net on three sides, and the thunder means are not left, but it is not good.

The Great Shang did not have the strength to be the enemy of the whole world, and not every prince had to be the enemy of the Great Shang.

Compromise a little and open the net.

If you think about it carefully, the trouble of letting the princes go is not particularly big.

Even if the princes returned to the territory, it was impossible to immediately raise troops against the merchants, and before that, they had to raise grain and grass and swear to mobilize.

The big merchants didn't need it, the grain and grass mobilized by King Pingling when he rebelled were all hoarded in the warehouse, and the noble caravan transported some to the north, and the rest was enough for the army to spend a month.

Whether it is killing or imprisoning, the nobles will inevitably rebel, but sooner or later.

But it is inevitable that some of the princes will waver, maybe not much, only one or two, and the power is not large, but if something happens to them, the heir will inevitably rebel, and the gap will be big when this one is in and one out.

And the most important thing is King Wu and King Yue.

I never thought that the king would be able to inadvertently use such a clever plan.

Whether it was the son, the righteous son, or the Marquis himself, they all died.

There is no one to inherit the Yuehou lineage, and the Yuehou is the great prince second only to the princes of the Quartet, and the resources in his hands can be imagined.

A few years ago, Chongheihu rebelled and disappeared, the Marquis of Caozhou was suspended, and the nobles of Caozhou successfully ascended the throne because there were too many princes near Caozhou, and no one dared to break the balance between the princes and became the target of public criticism.

And now there are King Wu and King Yue near Yuedi, and the princes with the title of the king can justifiably encroach and swallow Yuedi.

Their territory is geographically located, it is in the southern frontier, and there are few princes nearby, even if they become the target of public criticism, they are not too worried about someone attacking.

The hand of the king is a plan to drive Wu to swallow the over!

"The king is in chaos..."Chonghou Hu shook his head, if it wasn't for such a thought that flashed in his mind when he was crowned king, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to see through this plan today.

After all, the biggest thing today is the burning of books and the death of E Chongyu, except for the interests of King Wu and King Yue, almost no one cares about the death of Yue Hou.

Chonghou Hu walked back to the mansion with his hands behind his back, and became a big merchant licking dog from a prince, and he did not regret it at all.

Because Shen Gongbao just said that Chongying Biao had been rescued by the immortals.

Chongying Biao, who died for the king of Zhou, even if he died, someone saved him, but E Chongyu, Yuehou and others, who were enemies of the king of Zhou, became a cold corpse.

Some things are really easy to understand.
