thieves

Zhou Ji sat by the window with his wide sleeves stroked, his eyes were dull, as if a pair of iron clamps had strangled his heart, making it painful for him to even breathe.

Do you want to rectify Song Huai's name?

He asked himself repeatedly, if he did this, everyone would know that Wei Yan's death was planned by him alone, how long would his reputation of benevolence, righteousness and filial piety last?If Song Huai was abandoned, would Chen Guo be able to let it go?Can people in the world believe that this matter has nothing to do with him?

impossible!Absolutely impossible!

Wei Yan, originally willing to die, sacrificed his life for the country, while Song Huai was a righteous man's trip, what a man did, and he was just a benevolent and righteous prince who was worried about the affairs of his family and country.

He Zhou Ji has never been a hero, he has never been good enough, but this time, he wants to break through his bottom line, he wants to do something good in the true sense!

He wants to rectify Song Huai's name!

He is excited!

After going back and forth for three days, Zhou Ji made up his mind. When he walked out of the meeting hall, he saw Chen Guo's envoys followed by guards with unkind expressions on their faces.

"The battle is imminent, and King Chen is still interested in sending envoys to chat?" Zhou Ji raised his lips mockingly.

"No, no, what the prince himself did, did he deny it in a blink of an eye?" The envoy sneered.

Zhou Ji said: "What's the matter?"

The envoy said: "Three days ago, His Highness the Crown Prince sent Song Huai into Chen for an assassination, which almost injured my king. The traitor described himself as self-defeating and did not want to implicate His Highness the Crown Prince, but at least someone identified him. Now the truth has come to light." In the world. Does His Royal Highness think you can deny it?"

Zhou Ji secretly thought about who the person he identified was, with a calm expression on his face, he smiled slightly: "That's right, it's indeed what the prince did, but when did the prince say that he would renege on his debt?"

One sentence forced the envoy's prepared interrogation back into his stomach, and his face twitched, "...His Royal Highness is indeed a gentleman with a magnanimous heart, and he confessed everything he did."

"Thank you, thank you." Zhou Ji smirked, and he was left with these few advantages.

"The two armies are fighting, and they should have competed on the battlefield in a dignified way to determine the outcome. How could His Royal Highness behave like a villain? Could it be that the world laughed at His Highness as a villain?"

Zhou Ji expressed his doubts: "Huh? Didn't you just say that I am a gentleman, why did you become a villain again in the blink of an eye?"

Looking at the sky speechlessly, he was silent for a moment, "...how does His Highness the Crown Prince plan to explain to the king?"

Zhou Ji glanced at him, lifted his clothes and walked up the steps until he reached the top. He spread his palms down, overlooking the majestic land, and said loudly: "Uncle Wei Yan was willing to die that day, and Song Huai was able to face him in exchange for his head. When I met King Chen, I launched a plan to assassinate them. Both of them are peerless national warriors. Their merits are comparable to heaven and earth. The people of my country, the prince of my country, will never forget their heroic deeds! They are all citizens of my country, Now the corpses are all in Chen State, and the fallen leaves are not allowed to return to their roots. I swear at the Zhou Festival that I will definitely take them back to Yue State, have a grand burial, open a hall and set up a temple to comfort the dead, so that they will be admired by the people of Yue State from generation to generation! Empress Dowager, learn from this heart, treachery, heaven and man will be punished!"

After a while, he looked at the envoy again and said, "Give it to the king of Chen? Is it possible that the prince should kill all people related to the two to appease the anger of the king of Chen? Tell him Cui Ke when you go back. I will touch their families, but on the contrary, I want to let them enjoy the supreme honor, this is my account!"

The envoy turned pale with anger: "Your Highness, the crown prince, is overwhelmed at this moment. Don't forget today's heroic words in the future! In the future, when my king conquers the country of Yue, he will definitely spread his anger and bleed thousands of miles. Please look at it carefully, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Zhou Ji raised his head and looked down at him, "The two countries are at war, if you don't kill the envoy, the prince of Japan will let you go back today, and when I take over Chen Guojiankang in the future, you will be slaughtered all over the house. Let you see, what is the real king? angry!"

The envoy was stunned, his jaw was trembling, and a few words came out from between his teeth: "... I will take my leave."

The news spread across the world as if it had wings. For a while, people couldn't agree on what to do, and the discussion was in full swing.The storyteller tried his best to exaggerate how Song Huai gave his life generously and sacrificed his life for righteousness, and how Wei Yan calmly died for the livelihood of the people.

On the Wujiang River, the strong man sailed away, the prince stared at him affectionately, who would have thought that the world would be turned upside down in seven days, and he would die forever.

Later, Song Huai failed to assassinate Chen, fearing that His Highness the Crown Prince would be hurt, he did not hesitate to mutilate himself, mutilate his appearance, shed nine chapters of blood, and took all the responsibility on himself.But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince valued love and righteousness, and personally rectified Song Huai's name. Regardless of Chen Guo's anger, he made Song Huai a senior official, ranking among the three princes and nine ministers.

What a pair of emperors and ministers through the ages, what a touching friendship!

It's just that in all the legends, the existence of a woman is ignored. No one remembers that she rushed from the imperial tomb of the Yue Kingdom to the territory of the Chen Kingdom alone that day, giving the rotten and smelly dead body a name, and... ruined his life.

Before she died, she was holding a bead in her hand. Someone wanted to take the opportunity to swallow it privately and take it for herself, but they couldn't break her hand no matter what. Give up the idea of ​​grabbing things from the dead.

Suizhu...

When she was a queen, she had such a large pool of pearls. She used them to play tits and koi carp, and had a great time playing with them. However, this one was of such poor quality and color that she could not Never let go until death.

You are willing to solicit guilt and let Zhou Ji, the chief culprit, stay out of the matter, but I am not willing to!I just want everyone in the world to know that he instructed you to assassinate, and what he owes me and what his uncle owes me must be paid back, nothing less!

This seems to be an era of extreme gloom, with no brilliance and no hope in sight.

Zhou Ji thinks this way, he looks forward to the coming of war, when the time comes, the blood all over the sky will definitely make the world beautiful again, right?

Will it?

Whose blood is it?

On the eve of the war, Zhou Ji officially removed the mourning clothes, and changed into a dark black crown dress densely embroidered with twelve coats of arms with gold thread. He held the engraved sword of the kings of the past dynasties, and repeatedly wiped it under the lamp.Wipe away the old traces, wipe away the unbearable past.

After his father was killed by Song Chunyang, Chen Guo took advantage of the chaos and raised his troops to attack. His brothers were not of the right age, and they were unwilling to take risks. Otherwise, how could the great throne be passed on to him? On this prince who has been hanging out for 14 years?

14 years in Bashu and 14 years in bitter cold, he has long lost hope for everything in the world. He no longer desires to have anything, but...you can not enjoy the obligations, but you have to bear the responsibilities.

After all, he is still a man of iron and blood, a man with the dream of making contributions.

Father, the country after your heavy damage, the devastated mountains and rivers of the Yue Kingdom, will be reshaped by your son. Even if my bones are used to pile up the defensive city, the people of Nanman, Beidi, Xirong, and Dongyi must not be allowed to invade a cent!

If it is not successful, then let me be buried in the ground with the Yue Kingdom!

Thinking back when Wei Yan was young, because he was born as a criminal slave, he was not taken seriously. At that time, the Yue Kingdom got along well with the surrounding countries, and there was no battle to fight at all. Provoking troubles everywhere, causing public outrage, and using the name of the country of Yue everywhere.

As a result, the countries and the Yue Kingdom gradually turned against each other and started to cause wars. Wei Yan was able to stand out by virtue of his military affairs, became famous all over the world, and became a hero of the world. The national strength has been weakened, and it is now weak and poor.

Zhou Ji is well aware of his deeds. For example, he urged the two countries to make peace, but in the middle of the way, he killed and raped the princess. The two countries established friendly relations. He just went as an envoy the day before, On this day, he was able to maximize his ability to sow discord and create something out of nothing, and his ability to act was superb. Otherwise, where would there be wars?

In the early years, Zhou Ji regarded him as the God of War and worshiped him closely, but now when it was his turn to clean up a mess as big as the Yue Kingdom, he felt devastated and hated Wei Yan deeply. According to hate.

"His Royal Highness, it's dawn." The last team of guards stood outside the door and reported.

"Pass me an order to gather all the soldiers in the country, and after half an hour, we will formally face Chen Bing!"

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

Wei Yan was jealous of his talents during his lifetime, and oppressed other outstanding generals to the point of no use. Some died of hatred, their ambitions were not rewarded, and some went far away to find another way out. Now, there is no one in the territory of Yue who can bear the heavy responsibility. For the sake of the general, he can only order troops to fight in person. Thinking of this, he couldn't help scolding Wei Yan thousands of times in his heart.

"Damn Wei Yan! Wei Yan who killed a thousand swords!"

On the other hand, on Chen Guo's side, the atmosphere was also tense.

There are many outstanding generals in Chen Guo, but in the eyes of Chen Wang Cui Ke, who can compare with his "old man"'s unrivaled bravery?

The reason why he is called an "old man" is because although Cui Ke is young, he always likes to think of himself as an elder.

So Cui Ke put on his armor and stood ready, full of anticipation to start a battle with the hero of the world.

Cui Ke spoke highly of this opponent he had never met before.

Zhou Ji was an all-rounder in civil and military affairs when he was young. He was not only good at marching and fighting, but also good at coordinating personnel and managing government affairs.Later, when he was demoted to Bashu, he worked tirelessly day and night, drilled soldiers during the day, and studied hard with books at night. It is said that he only slept for two or three hours a day, and he was still in good spirits and worked hard the next day.

This is a terrible opponent, Cui Ke thinks so, but if he doesn't start with him, how will he stand firm among the princes in the future?

This battle is settled!
