Chapter 227: The Death of Shih Tzu
Thinking of Mrs. Yue's goodness, King Yue had no doubts about her in his heart, only gratitude and respect, therefore, when he saw Mrs. Yue saying this, the wording was stern, and he panicked, and hurriedly said: "Since the queen said so, it must be the same!" raised his eyes and looked around at the Vietnamese army, and said loudly: "Soldiers, let's hurry back to Huiji and rescue the national capital!"
When the Vietnamese soldiers heard this, they shouted in unison: "Obey!"
King Yue was worried about Xi Shi in his heart, reluctant to give up, looked at Xi Shi, and said softly: "Shi Meiren, you come on the royal boat, the widow thinks that you have made great contributions to the country, and you are a martyr, and will personally protect you, drive the expedition in person, kill the national capital, reward meritorious deeds, and give generous gifts!"
When Mrs. Yue heard this, her heart suddenly became angry, she was angry, her face was flat, and she reprimanded: "King, this is a war, it is not a child's play, there are weak women in the army, it is very inconvenient, please think twice!"
King Yue's mind moved, hesitated for a moment, and said, "What does the queen mean?"
Mrs. Yue said: "The concubine is a woman, this beauty is also a woman, and it is more convenient and secure for a woman to take care of a woman. ”
King Yue frowned and pondered, hesitated for a long time, and suddenly heard Xi Shi Yingying bow on the side, and said: "The people are willing to ride with the queen, please ask King Yue to agree." ”
King Yue was helpless, glanced at Xi Shi, depressed, his face remained unchanged, calmly, and said: "Since this is the case, then ask the queen to take care of the beauty and bring it back to the national capital." He was not at ease in his heart, and said: "Shi Meiren is a meritorious man of his country, and he has made great contributions to his country, and the queen must take care of it, protect it thoroughly, and keep it safe." ”
When Mrs. Yue heard Wang Yue say this, the more jealous and hateful she felt in her heart, and her face turned pale. Pretending to be docile, he smiled but didn't smile, and said: "This matter is not to worry about the king, and the king is not going quickly." ”
King Yue glanced at Xi Shi. I was reluctant to do so, so I had to be ruthless, kick my legs, turn the horse's head, and ride the horse forward. Stepping on the big wooden plank bridge, returning to his own dragon head on the royal boat, standing on the bow of the ship, facing the Vietnamese soldiers behind him, he said loudly: "The class teacher returns to Vietnam and rescues the national capital!"
The Yue soldiers followed the king of Yue, and everyone heard it in their ears, thinking that most of the old and young in their families, their wives and sons and grandchildren were in the national capital, and if the capital was lost, the lives of their families would be worried. Immediately, everyone was filled with righteous indignation, all of them were gearing up, their emotions were excited, they waved their weapons, and shouted in unison: "Obey!"
After everyone got on the boat, the big ship spread its sails, set sail at anchor, and sailed downwind to the capital of Yueguo. The Vietnamese ships were in front and behind, and they were square in the center. The king of Yue sits firmly in the middle of the dragon head royal ship, and the command is determined, with the vanguard ships in front and the ships behind the palace. In the center, there are ships on the left and right wings, all the way to the capital.
Mrs. Yue rode a snow silver horse and stood on the shore of Sanshan Island, and saw that the Yue army led by the king of Yue had gone far away and did not come back, and looked back. Seeing that Xi Shi was also looking at the vast water surface of Taihu Lake from afar, she was in a daze, and said straight in her heart that she had the intention to confuse King Yue, and became angry, indistinguishable from indiscriminate, and shouted: "Come on, take down this demon girl!"
The left and right armorers hesitated, and Mrs. Yue reprimanded: "Who dares not to listen to the mourning family!"
Therefore, several soldiers stepped forward to do something, and did not allow Xi Shi to have more to say, so they tied her feet, tied a big stone to one end of the thick rope, and carried her straight onto the crested royal boat.
Mrs. Yue is not slow to move, when the horse is the first to move forward, leading a group of maids and maids, guards and armor, on the royal ship, in the bow of the boat signaled the Yue Wang to stay close to protect his own royal ship of several ships of the Yue soldiers set sail, around the escort, the crested royal boat he took in the center of the slow walk, towards the direction of the ship led by the king of Yue, driving the boat over.
Xi Shi's body was tied, and there was a lot of crying and noise on the boat. Mrs. Yue was impatient, and ordered someone to plug her mouth with royal silk yellow silk, not allowing her to open her mouth to speak, and when the boat went into the lake a little deeper, she ordered the armor to move, "plop", and sank Xi Shi into the water of Taihu Lake.
Seeing that the matter had been accomplished, Mrs. Yue was relieved in her heart, did not panic, acted decisively, drove the boat, followed the boats of the Yue Wang group all the way, and walked slowly, not impatiently.
The Yue Wang's ship was in front, just because of the rescue, the heart was anxious, the boat was very fast, and after a while, the ship docked at the South Taihu Lake, and the Vietnamese army went to the shore. The king of Yue ordered Lou Gufu to be the vanguard officer, and led 3,000 elite soldiers of Wu and Yuejia to set off in a hurry, and rushed to the national capital to aid in the rescue. Knowing that this soldier is the elite of the country, brave and good at fighting, if they arrive first, the hope of the country being rescued will be greatly increased. In addition to being relieved, he didn't dare to stay longer, so he rode a horse and led the rest of the Yue army, and then hurried away.
When the king of Yue rushed back to the national capital, he saw that the surroundings of Huiji City were quiet and peaceful, and it was very stable, and how could there be swords and soldiers to see each other, and half of the Chu soldiers were in their hearts?
After a while, Mrs. Yue led the crowd back, and King Yue questioned her, and Mrs. Yue directly reported her matter and did not deny it vaguely. The king of Yue knew that lying about the military situation was a capital crime, and he should be beheaded according to the rules, and he would never tolerate it, so how could he be his wife, and his kindness was like reconstruction, so how could he deal with her with a sword and a soldier? Mrs. Yue told the truth and said, "What is left behind of this thing that has lost the country?"
King Yue listened to her speak so lightly, calmly, and was very angry in his heart, but he had no way to deal with it. Thinking that his wife lied about the military situation, just to gloom Xi Shi, although this act is absurd, from it, it is mostly for his own good, he doesn't want to be like Wu Wangfucha, and finally die at the hands of a woman, but he is innocent and upright, how can he be compared with Wu Wangfucha, and talk about it on the same day? I thought that Xi Shi only because of his beautiful appearance and glamorous appearance, he caused such a disaster today, not at the hands of the enemy, but at the hands of his own people, not at the hands of ordinary generals, but at the hands of the mother and queen of the country. However, what can I do now? I have no choice but to sigh secretly, shake my head and sigh.
As far as King Yue could see, he suddenly remembered Fan Lilai.
Thinking that he and Xi Shi are more affectionate than Jin Jian, and their affection is too much, if they hear this bad news, they will definitely refuse to give up, and they will make trouble. Just thinking that he is the pillar of the country, admired by everyone, and has just entered the capital, if he does something villainous, sends assassins, and secretly kills him, at that time, he will definitely arouse suspicion and be criticized, and he will have a great influence on his own rule of the country, and if the people's hearts are lost, the country will no longer be there.
