"Everyone, do you want Marquis Quyang to come up with an explanation today?" the man said.
The person who spoke was none other than Song Zhe.
This guy was hiding behind Xiong Wuliang, and the officials didn't pay much attention to him - they thought he was a small follower of the famous Qu Yanghou.
Unexpectedly, the little follower suddenly said such a word, and directly handed it to the noble ministers present... Happiness came so suddenly, Jing Chong and others were stunned for a moment!
"Song Zhe, don't talk nonsense!" Xiong Wuliangzuo was shocked and turned pale——
"Everyone, this is a small minister under my command. He has never seen much of the world, so he can't keep his word." Xiong Wuliang said to the ministers with an apologetic smile.
Qu Yuan even bluntly rebuked: "Song Zhe, shut up! This is not the palace, how can it be a place for you to talk nonsense!?"
Jing Chong and other ministers were like sharks after smelling the smell of blood, and they immediately became energetic: "Why don't you count? You must count!"
"How prestigious is the majestic Marquis Quyang? Even if he is a dog in the house, his words have weight!"
"Yes, yes!"
"This little brother is absolutely right - the Lord will give me an explanation today!"
Xiong Wuliang glared at Song Zhe angrily. If his gaze could kill, Song Zhe would have died eight hundred times.
However, Song Zhe still didn't know what to say, so he patted his chest and said boldly: "I am the aide of Marquis Quyang, and I will give you an accurate word today - my monarch is very talented, and the solution to the problem has been prepared for a long time! "
The officials were even more revelry!
What solution? Just looking at the expression on Xiong Wuliang's face, you know that he is helpless!
"Mr. Xiao Song's words are very true - the dignified Marquis Quyang must have already understood this trivial matter!" Jing Chong said with a smile, a sinister light flashing in his eyes.
Song Zhe was still 'oblivious' and showed a strong sense of evil: "Don't talk about my master, even a mediocre guy like me has a way in his heart!"
Zhaoju, who had been silent all the time, couldn't hold back anymore - looking at this silly little fat guy talking nonsense, Zhaoju seemed to see the dawn of overthrowing Xiong Wuliang... Who would have thought that the key to Xiong Wuliang's disrepute was actually Was it an opportunity given by such an idiot?
"The majesty of the Lord is well-known in all countries. Even if he is a staff member in your house, he must represent the meaning of Qu Yanghou and cannot be changed." Zhaoju said to Xiong Wuliang: "Please continue, Mr. Song."
"Wait a minute!" Xiong Wuliang's face turned pale as he interrupted Song Zhe, who was full of excitement.
"Even if my staff can represent the wishes of this prince... I'm afraid his plan will not be able to meet your requirements... just don't say it!" Xiong Wuliang waved the Pingnan Sword and made a decision regardless of the fierce opposition of the ministers. road--
"Let's stop here for today's court meeting."
“Let’s leave the land dispute to the next court meeting!”
"Dismiss the court!" Xiong Wuliang waved his hand and said without any doubt.
…
The Chu State's court meeting is now held once every seven days.
Xiong Wuliang forcefully stopped the court meeting. Although the dispute was forcibly suppressed in a short time, it also exposed his helplessness.
In the next seven days, the nobles in Yingdu City celebrated with each other, and were already thinking about how to launch an attack at the next court meeting, and how to maximize the lethality of this plan to Qu Yanghou...
Even a small number of Qu clan members secretly participated in the gathering in Zhaoju Mansion.
These Qu clan members first made bitter accusations against Qu Yuan's behavior of "forgetting his ancestors", and then expressed their support for the struggle of Zhaoju and others, and drove that damn bastard Xiong Wuliang out of office!
Zhaoju was still doubtful at first... But soon, the Qu family also raised land disputes in several areas of Yingdu City... This letter of surrender dispelled Zhaoju's last doubts!
Xiong Wuliang, you have betrayed all your relatives!
Still want to touch the rights of nobles like me?
This is the end!
Seven days go by in a blink of an eye.
The noble ministers in Yingdu City were fully prepared to embarrass Xiong Wuliang severely at the next court meeting!
…
The second court meeting did not go ahead as scheduled.
It's outrageous - Xiong Liang, Marquis of Quyang, who had been presiding over the court meeting, also announced the suspension of the court meeting because he "occasionally contracted wind and cold" just like the current king of Chu.
Of course, the ministers refused to comply and blocked the door of Xiong Wuliang's temporary palace, demanding an explanation from the latter immediately!
Xiong Wuliang still didn't show up, but asked that stupid Song Zhe to convey the final 'solution'!
The plan is very simple and crude...
Since everyone believes that the land belongs to their own family, and they all have different opinions and no evidence, the only way to solve the problem is in a 'seemingly fair' way!
auction!
The highest bidder wins!
It is conceivable that such a plan certainly aroused the anger and ridicule of the ministers...
Zhaoju Mansion.
The simple mansion was crowded with people. Zhao Ju, Jing Chong and others all had sneers on their faces and said mockingly——
"Xiong Wuliang, how ridiculous!"
"Auctioning land? Unheard of!"
"Is this his solution? It's so funny..."
"..."
Jing Chong sneered and said, "I think it was Xiong Wuliang who had nothing to do, so he did such a thing."
"It doesn't matter - as long as we all express our rejection and refuse to participate in that Lao Shizi 'auction' - this method will end in vain."
The rest of the people nodded one after another and began to praise one after another——
"Xiong Wuliang, fighting in a war is just fine--managing internal affairs is really as stupid as a pig!"
"The Imperial Preceptor and the Imperial Elder just used a little trick to teach that guy to catch him without any help!"
"This torment will definitely make Xiong Wuliang very anxious - if we delay it for a moment and cause chaos among millions of refugees in Huainan, then Xiong Wuliang will definitely step down! Tell him to go back to his fiefdom in despair!"
"With Imperial Master Zhaoju and Elder Jingchong... we will definitely be able to revitalize the great Chu!"
…
Quyanghou's temporary palace.
Xiong Wuliang smiled and took a slow sip of tea.
Song Zhe was overjoyed, with a flattering smile on his face.
Qu Principle had a look of helplessness on his face, looking at the unscrupulous master and servant in front of him... He didn't know whether to be grateful or to scold these two people for their shamelessness.
Xiong Wuliang put down the tea cup: "At this moment, Zhaoju Mansion must be very happy."
Song Zhe: "Your Majesty, it's time to close the net!"
Xiong Wuliang waved his hand and said proudly: "Proceed as planned!"
"This time, let those noble moths vomit blood!"
…
News like a bolt from the blue reached Zhaoju Mansion——
All the ministers in the government, like ducks that had their necks strangled, were all silenced!
Jing Chongyuan's eyes widened, and his eyes were about to burst.
The news that came was simple——
Shameless Mr. Qu has already started bidding like crazy!
The Qu family purchased a large piece of land that should belong to the Zhao family at a low price... Xiong Wuliang declared the auction to be effective, and dispatched the Quyang New Army to stand up and divide the land to the Qu family...
Hold the grass!
There's a traitor!
"Mr. Qu is still bidding like crazy!" the messenger cried -
Zhaoju's face was ashen, he knew that he had lost again...
Xiong Wuliang's treacherous plan goes far beyond that...
…
