Yes, why can't Chu become the most powerful country in the mainland?
Now is the best opportunity for Chu State. Qi State dispatches an army of 500,000 people, led by General Tian Huan. They march long distances across the two countries to attack Qin State. The army of 500,000 people is perhaps only one-fifth of Qi State’s strength. , or even one-sixth, but there is no doubt that the Qi State at this time, without these 500,000 troops, is indeed a little empty in national strength.
The most important thing is that Qi State would never expect that Chu State would attack them at this time.
Among the eighteen prefectures of the Qi State, two of them were plundered by the Chu State. If the Chu State sends troops this time, even if it only takes back the two prefectures, it will be a victory for the Chu State.
By the way, it can also solve the crisis of Qin Dynasty, and indirectly destroy Qi's ambition to occupy Qin and further expand its power.
Under the combination of the two, Chu is strong and Qi is weak, and Chu is the one who benefits the most.
Especially when the Liuyun Kingdom exists, the Liuyun Kingdom has long been ready to move, but there is no good opportunity. If the Chu Kingdom moves, the Liuyun Kingdom will definitely follow suit. When the time comes, the Qi Kingdom will be attacked by two parties. No matter how powerful Qi is at that time, facing such a situation, I am afraid that it will have to pay something.
"Mr. Fan, come with me to see my father."
Listening to Xiong Liang's words, Fan Ju also smiled from the bottom of his heart and secretly said that as long as he persuaded Xiong Liang, the matter was mostly settled. The King of Chu loved Xiong Liang very much, and he had always been there for Xiong Liang. Paving the way, Xiong Liang now lacks everything. What he lacks is a merit that is enough to support Xiong Liang in successfully ascending to the throne in the future.
There are too many aristocratic families in the Chu State. It can be said that the aristocratic families in the Chu State are the largest among the Nine Kingdoms, and they all have strong power. More than 90% of the ministers in the court are from the aristocratic families. It is said that they are Xiong. The Chu State of the Xiong family is better said to be governed by the Xiong family and other clans. Therefore, if the king of Chu State wants to ascend to the throne, he must have enough achievements to convince and fear these clans.
How could King Chu not see this opportunity now?
As long as Xiong Liang leads the Chu army to victory in a unified battle, then Xiong Liang's last shortcoming will be gone.
Of course, this is also the reason why Xiong Liang is moved. Now Fan Ju is the hero who pushed the king to the throne. What reason does Xiong Liang have to reject Fan Ju?
Chu Palace.
When the King of Chu saw Xiong Liang bringing Fan Ju over, he was a little strange. It wasn't until Xiong Liang said that he wanted to lead an army to march into Qi that the King of Chu understood something. It turned out that it was his own son who had been persuaded.
The King of Chu naturally knew Fan Ju's intention to send an envoy, and it was just to solve the dilemma of Qin Dynasty.
For Chu State, it is okay to take action or not. It just depends on the benefits. If taking action can bring more benefits to Chu State, Chu State will naturally not hesitate to take action.
As the second most powerful country in the mainland, Qin has never been Chu's imaginary opponent. In Chu's world, its only opponent is Qi.
Now Fan Ju is maximizing this benefit.
The Qi State at this time is indeed the most suitable to take action. Taking action at this time is equivalent to the three countries of Chu, Liuyun and Qin taking action against the Qi State.
As for Qin State, Chu State has already contained Qi State's 500,000-strong army, one general, and Qi State's two allies Wei and South Korea.
Such an opportunity doesn't come around all the time.
Then Liuyun State attacked Qi State's back, and Chu State took action. At the very least, it could take the land of the two prefectures from Qi State. This was enough for Xiong Liang and Chu State.
It was confusing but not nerve-wracking. It was just to regain the land of the two mansions, and Qi State would not fight Chu State because of this.
Moreover, destroying the situation of Qi State's annexation of Qin State also weakened Qi State's strength from the side. According to Fan Ju, Qin State was helping Chu State to contain Qi State. Chu State did not refute this statement. Since there was already a tendency , there is no point in fighting over this.
The next day, the Chu State went to court.
When they heard that Chu State was going to send troops to Qi State, the noble families naturally disagreed. They did not like fighting. However, when they heard that the King of Chu said that they were sure to take at least two provinces from Qi State, the noble families immediately agreed. They did not like it. Fighting, but they like territory, and if they win the territory, they will also benefit from sharing the profits.
Inside the Prince's Mansion.
Fan Ju and Ying Chu said goodbye. Ying Chu couldn't help but be overjoyed when she heard that Chu was willing to send troops to Qi. She knew that in this way, Qin's crisis would be resolved.
"Master Fan, what a great talent!"
Yingchu knew that it was not easy to convince the King of Chu. Fan Ju could accomplish this with just one mouth. Needless to say, it was amazing.
"Princess is ridiculous. Now that the mission has been completed, the King of Chu will send troops soon, and I should return to Qin. Does the princess have anything to say or write to His Highness the Crown Prince?"
Ying Chu was also stunned when he heard this, and quickly ordered someone to get it.
However, Fan Ju was a little dumbfounded by what he took out immediately. It was a motorcade and dozens of boxes of belongings.
"The people of Chu are extravagant and rich, far more than I am in Great Qin. The prince is also very fond of me. These are all the properties I have saved over the years. Lord Fan, please take them back. Now that Great Qin is in crisis, I'm afraid There are many uses for money, and this is all I can do for Da Qin now. There is also a letter here, which is written to Xiao Tu. Lord Fan, please trouble me to take it back with you and tell Xiao Tu that my sister misses him. "
Fan Ju couldn't help but choked up in his heart at this time.
How lucky is Great Qin to have such a princess.
He did not refuse Ying Chu's kindness. The person standing in front of him was not the Crown Princess of Chu, but his Highness the Princess of Qin. He had no reason to refuse.
After taking the letter, Fan Ju handed another box to Ying Chu.
"Your Highness the Princess, this is given to the Princess by Your Highness the Crown Prince."
Ying Chu was startled when she heard the words. She took the box and opened it. A jade hairpin appeared in front of her eyes. The spiritual energy emanated from it. It turned out to be a spiritual weapon.
"this!"
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that this jade hosta has the ability to turn bad luck into good luck. I hope it can protect His Royal Highness the Princess and bring peace and prosperity in the Kingdom of Chu."
Ying Chu held the hosta tightly and couldn't help but shed tears in his eyes.
"By the way, the seventeenth princess of the Chu Kingdom has entered the witch sect to practice and will return soon. I want to marry the seventeenth princess for Xiao Tu. After I return, you and Xiao Tu should also tell me."
Witch gate!
This is the most mysterious existence in the South. They practice witchcraft, and their strength is terrifying and strange. Their reputation and power are not inferior to that of the Black and White Academy.
Fan Ju naturally knew the benefits of marrying such a disciple of the Wumen. As long as he could use the Wumen's strength, it would be of huge benefit to the Qin Dynasty.
What's more, her identity is still the seventeenth princess of the Chu Kingdom.
"I will try my best to facilitate this matter."
