The Eternal Beauty of the City of Wealth
Chapter 257 Gui Yue Seeks Help
Zixuan looked at Ji Yi's corpse and smiled coldly, thinking, Those who do evil will eventually perish!
She looked at these kind people and felt grateful, and immediately used her spiritual sense to notify Boss Ji.
"Old Ji, find a larger open space nearby and drop off 10 million kilograms of grain there."
One hundred thousand barrels of cooking oil, one hundred thousand kilograms of pork, one hundred thousand kilograms of vegetables, one hundred thousand kilograms of fruit, and one hundred boxes of knife coins!
The machine boss agreed and went to prepare. After a moment, he reported: "My lord, everything has been deployed!"
"It's in a square 300 meters ahead, please check!"
When Zixuan saw that the supplies had been delivered, he immediately got on a carriage and shouted, "My lords! My people!"
"This time, I have brought everyone rice, flour, grain, oil, fruits, vegetables, knives, and coins!"
Please line up in an orderly manner to receive your gifts! One bag of rice and one bag of noodles per person! "
"Ten kilograms of fruit, ten kilograms of vegetables, five kilograms of pork, and twenty knife coins! Gentlemen, please help distribute them!"
When the people heard that Zixuan had come to deliver things to them again, they immediately cheered excitedly.
"Did you all hear that, young and old? This time, we have not only food, but also vegetables, fruits, and meat!"
"And everyone can get twenty coins! King Zixuan! You are truly a living god who saves people from suffering..."
Immediately, the people knelt down and shouted: "Long live King Zixuan! Long live! Long, long live!"
The resounding voices rose higher and higher, reaching the sky...
After arranging this matter, she went to several officials and said, "My lords! A family cannot be without a master, and a country cannot be without a king."
Now that Ji Yi has been beaten to death by his own people, a prince must be chosen to inherit the throne as soon as possible.
One of the ministers replied, "Your Majesty Zixuan, Duke Ai has a bad reputation. You should not make his son the king again."
"I propose to establish the late king's younger brother, Prince Chou, as king. What do you and the other lords think?"
After hearing this, the doctors nodded repeatedly: "Gong Zi Chou is a kind and honest man!"
"He is also extremely talented, both in literature and martial arts, and is the most suitable candidate."
Seeing that everyone agreed, Zixuan nodded and said, "I'll leave this matter to you. I'm an outsider and it's not convenient for me to interfere."
Several people answered in unison: "Your Majesty is wise, we obey your command!"
After Prince Chou ascended the throne, he was known in history as Duke Gong of Zheng. Zixuan and his mother, the queen, traveled in Zheng for another half month.
Afterwards, he bid farewell to Ji Chou and led several ministers who followed him towards the State of Chen.
They visited mountains and rivers along the way, stopped and walked, and soon arrived at Zhuye, the capital of the State of Chen.
After Chen Min Gong Gui Yue received the news, he personally led civil and military officials out of the city to welcome him.
He then ordered the soldiers to pave the road with yellow earth and sprinkle clean water on the streets, and to welcome Zixuan according to the royal etiquette.
The common people also lined the streets to welcome him, and from time to time some people presented him with local specialties, which touched Zixuan deeply.
Ban Zhu said proudly, "Your Majesty, your reputation is truly excellent! As your subject, I am truly honored!"
Zixuan just smiled and said nothing. When he entered the palace, Gui Yue had already ordered people to set up a banquet.
During the banquet, the doctor Guo Jiao immediately noticed Ban Yu sitting next to Zixuan.
Last year, when he was on a diplomatic mission to Zheng State, he got drunk at a state banquet and ran up to a dancer, hugged her face and started biting her.
As a result, he was scolded and kicked out by the doctor Ban Yu, which made him lose face and dignity.
Therefore, he developed hatred towards Ban Shu and always wanted to find an opportunity to take revenge on him.
Then, he glanced at Ban Yi and said sarcastically, "Hey? Isn't this Doctor Ban from Zheng?"
"You're not serving in Zheng State, so why did you follow City Lord Zixuan to Chen State?"
When Ban Yu saw that it was a diplomatic ally, he immediately looked at him with contempt and replied coldly: "Duke Ai is dead. I will find another wise ruler to protect him!"
"Haha! It's been said since ancient times that a good minister will not serve two masters, and a good wife will not marry two husbands!"
"How dare City Lord Zixuan employ someone like you who is fickle and fickle?"
You! Ban Jing was speechless for a moment. Zixuan gave Guojiao a cold look:
"Sir, has Ban Yi ever offended you? Otherwise, why are you making sarcastic remarks about him?"
"City Lord Zixuan, you misunderstood. I didn't mean to ridicule Ban Jing. I was just speaking the truth!"
"Oh? Really? I have several ministers around me. Why don't you talk about others, but only target Ban Yu?"
Seeing the state of the country, Duke Min of Chen shouted angrily:
"How dare you be so rude to City Lord Zixuan? What crime should you commit? Why don't you apologize?"
Zixuan hurriedly stopped him: "Forget it, I don't want to bother with such a villain!"
After the ministers had eaten and drunk their fill, they left and Gui Yue invited Zixuan to his study for tea.
After dismissing his attendants, Gui Yue fell to his knees before Zixuan and begged, "Please, City Lord Zixuan, save our State of Chen!"
Zixuan was stunned. What was going on? Why was there another person asking for help? Could it be another palace intrigue?
She hurriedly held his hand and said, "Your Excellency, there is no need to be so polite. Please speak!"
Gui Yue stood up and said, "City Lord Zixuan, two months ago, the State of Chu asked me to join forces with them to attack the State of Dun."
"I didn't expect that Dun State had already become dependent on Wu State, so Dun State immediately asked Wu State for help."
"Upon hearing the news, King Fuchai of Wu was furious and immediately led 150,000 elite troops to attack our capital, Zhuye."
"We have already captured three cities of the State of Chen. If we take two more, we will march straight to the capital!"
"Please, City Lord Zixuan, save me and the people of Chen!"
Zixuan was speechless. The Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period was truly a mess.
Either you defeat me today, or I defeat you tomorrow!
Your ancestors were either family or good friends, so couldn't they just live in peace? I'm really impressed by them!
Alas, it seems that I have to be a peacemaker again.
In order to prevent the people from suffering from war, I had no choice but to wade into this muddy water.
Thinking of this, she nodded: "Okay, I will help you this time!"
Gui Yue was overjoyed after hearing this, and her eyes turned red with excitement.
He knelt down again and kowtowed to Zixuan: "Thank you, City Lord Zixuan!"
"Stand up, and tell me the details."
"Well, the Wu army is led by Fuchai himself, with Sima Wu Zixu and Sicheng Sun Wu as the vanguard."
"We have already captured the third county city, Yiyang. We will probably continue to advance in a few days."
Zixuan was shocked after hearing this. These three were all famous figures in history.
Sun Wu, in particular, was a master at using troops in battle and was later called the Military Saint.
His book "The Art of War" has also been passed down through the ages by later generations.
If he did not participate, the State of Wu would definitely destroy the State of Chen.
After agreeing to Chen Min Gong's request, Zixuan and his party came to the Chen State's villa.
I felt very relieved to see that the yard was clean inside and out.
She ordered someone to call Ban Yao over and asked, "My dear Ban, have you had any problems with the country?"
"Otherwise, why did he speak rudely to you at the banquet today?"
Ban Yao nodded and said, "Yes, Your Majesty. Last year, when the diplomatic envoy visited the State of Chen, he behaved disgracefully at the banquet."
"I couldn't stand his actions, so I drove him out."
"Guo Jiao must be angry with me because of this matter, and today he wants to retaliate and regain his face."
