Zhaoju looked at the prince and did not speak immediately. Instead, he coughed twice and looked senile.
Mi Heng sighed and said: "Old Ling Yin is a great talent, please take care of yourself - when I ascend to the throne in the future, I will wait for your Ling Yin to take care of the country of Chu for Mi Heng."
Seeing the concern on the prince's face, Zhao Ju secretly smiled in his heart, shook his gray head in a pretentious manner, and said in a hoarse voice: "If the prince has this kind of heart, I will be satisfied!"
"If the prince can really ascend the throne smoothly, I can feel at ease..." As soon as he finished speaking, Zhaoju looked like he felt guilty and said hurriedly: "Well, the old minister was unintentional and made a mistake - Prince, forgive me. Sin! Forgive me!”
Prince Mi Heng was startled, and his face looked unhappy: "Old Ling Yin, what do you mean? I am the eldest son of the king. Isn't it natural for me to ascend the throne?"
Zhaoju sighed repeatedly and said nothing.
It wasn't until Mi Heng became furious and pressed again and again that Zhaoju showed a brave face and said "uprightly"——
"Now that the three kingdoms of Qin, Wei and Han are allied to attack Chu, everyone in Chu is in panic...but maybe there is a Chu person who is secretly happy in his heart!"
Mi Heng was aroused by Zhaoju a long time ago. After hearing these words, he was even more stunned: "Who? Old Ling Yin said it doesn't matter!"
Grandma drops.
The great Chu country is in dire straits, but does anyone dare to rejoice?
Zhaoju sighed and said solemnly: "Prince, be careful - be careful of Marquis Quyang! Be careful that he takes advantage of the Three Kingdoms' attack on Chu to take over the military power of Chu in one fell swoop! Be careful of his prestige among the people!"
Qu Yanghou?
Wang’s younger brother Mi Liang?
Mi Heng wrinkled his eyebrows, and the appearance of his brother Wang, whom he had not seen for a long time, appeared in his mind, and he was not convinced for a moment.
My brother Wang, how honest you are!
Still familiarly unambitious, familiarly lazy...
After Yunmengze formed an alliance, Wang Di went into the fiefdom and never showed up no matter what big things happened... This really made Mi Heng feel relieved and relieved!
Thinking back to that flash of murderous intention towards Xiong Wuliang... Mi Heng still often feels guilty!
My brother-in-law is such a peaceful person, yet I actually had murderous intentions towards him?
Mud, am I still not a human being?
When I wake up in the middle of the night, I have to slap myself!
"Marquis Quyang doesn't care about political affairs, and he seems to be retiring..." Mi Heng frowned and said, "Although Old Ling Yin has always had clever plans, this time, I'm afraid he is a bit alarmist, right?"
Zhaoju shook his head repeatedly, as if he hated iron and said, "No, no!"
"It is true that Marquis Quyang returned to his fiefdom, but he has been holding the Pingnan Sword and is unwilling to return it to the king."
"The shops and commercial ports that entered Doujin that day had no intention of handing it over to the state."
"It seems like he still has selfish motives!"
"Do you know that when Marquis Quyang returned to his fiefdom, he didn't intend to retreat in order to advance?"
Zhaoju paused and then said solemnly: "Even if Marquis Quyang is loyal...a few decades later, Marquis Quyang will be old and dead...will his heir be equally loyal?"
"I think no one can guarantee it!"
"After Xiong Wuliang dies, Xiao Qu Yanghou will inherit his financial resources, military power, and reputation... If you have evil intentions... tsk tsk."
"At the beginning, Uncle Zhao, Wei Yan, and Han Wuzi... served the Jin Kingdom and were equally loyal... What happened next?"
The three people Zhao Ju mentioned as "Zhao Shudai, Wei Ji, and Han Wuzi" were the ancestors of the three kingdoms of Zhao, Wei, and Han... all of whom were once high officials of the Jin Kingdom.
Their descendants, after several generations of inheritance, became more and more powerful - and finally, the famous 'three families were divided into Jin'.
The Jin Kingdom was destroyed, and the three kingdoms of Zhao, Wei and Han were established in this way!
At this moment, Zhaoju used the words "Zhao Shudai, Wei Ji, and Han Wuzi" to describe Xiong Wuliang... Just like later generations said, "This guy is like Sima Yi", which is an extremely serious political curse.
Zhaoju finally added with malice: "With the ten thousand armored warriors under Qu Yanghou, wouldn't it be a big trouble if chaos breaks out in the future?"
Mi Heng's breathing was stagnant.
Thinking of the new army of Quyang under Xiong Wuliang, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.
After a moment of silence, Mi Heng smiled with some difficulty: "Brother Wang... He doesn't even have a son now... Old Ling Yin is thinking too far, isn't he?"
Zhaoju said solemnly: "If you don't plan for the eternity, how can you plan for the moment? Be careful! Be careful!"
Mi Heng fell into a long silence...
Zhaoju smiled proudly.
This prince Mi Heng is really a straight-tempered person.
Such people are the easiest to control!
…
It took nearly two hours before Zhaoju came to the main hall.
At this time, King Huai of Chu was already worried and said with an ugly face: "Old Ling Yin, why are you here so slowly?"
Zhaoju bowed respectfully: "I pay my respects to the overlord... Although I came late, I have already thought of some strategies to deal with the enemy..."
The ministers all pouted, thinking that although Lao Zhaoju didn't show up, he was still familiar with the goings-on in the court.
This cry of 'overlord' was quite smooth.
After hearing this, King Mi Huai of Chu did not blame Zhaoju for being too late, and immediately asked: "Oh? What is your strategy for retreating from the enemy? You might as well elaborate on it!"
Zhaoju cleared his throat and Shi Shiran said: "The three kingdoms of Qin, Wei and Han, relying on the prestige of the overlord, intend to join forces to fight...appeasement, I'm afraid it won't work."
"If Chu is not weakened, the three countries will never retreat."
"So, we can only fight!"
King Chu Huai breathed a long sigh of relief and nodded repeatedly.
Very much to my liking!
With King Huai of Chu's face, coupled with his current level of arrogance - it would be more uncomfortable for him to bow his head and sue for peace than to kill him!
Zhaoju didn't show off and quickly made suggestions——
"The three kingdoms of Qin, Wei and Han are powerful. Although I, the great Chu, are not afraid, it is not appropriate to face the enemy alone."
“In my opinion, it’s better to unite our allies and fight against the enemy together!”
"The states of Qi and Yue in the east are all following the leadership of Chu. You might as well send envoys to these two countries and invite King Tiandi of Qi and King Sijing of Yue to form a three-nation alliance with Chu, and fight against Qin, Wei, and Han. !”
King Chu Huai’s eyes lit up!
As expected of Ling Yin!
In the middle of a mess, with just a few words, a feasible idea was sorted out!
Although the country of Yue is small in area and has a small population... it still has 20,000 soldiers. And because these soldiers of the Yue Kingdom have experienced many wars before and after, although these 20,000 people are not many, they are all elite soldiers.
In the past two years, Qi State has also initially recovered from the catastrophe that almost destroyed the country-at least it broke out an army of 100,000 and 80,000, which should be no problem.
With the assistance of these two countries, plus Chu's own army...the chances of winning are not small!
King Huai of Chu slapped the case: "Your Majesty's plan is very good, so I will follow your Majesty's instructions!"
