A smile flashed across Gou Jian's eyes.
He had expected this scene as early as in Wu State.
Fan Li's wealth is certainly attractive, but Fan Li's value is by no means comparable to that of his wealth.
Fan Li can strengthen the army and enrich the country.
The genre of literature is the bond between him and Fan Li that will never be broken.
Gou Jian ordered people to hang bear gallbladder on the side of their seats, and every time they went to or from the court, they would taste the bitterness with their tongues.
He also abandoned the gorgeous and soft bed and slept on firewood every night.
Then, Gou Jian thought about the relationship between Fu Chai and Wu Feng when he first entered Wu as a hostage.
That sonorous, powerful and majestic sentence from King Wu Fu Chai, have you forgotten my great wish of the past kings to achieve hegemony?
He didn't know whether Fu Chai had forgotten it or not.
But he will never forget.
So Goujian ordered his ministers to shout when he came and went: "Goujian, have you forgotten the shame of Kuaiji?"
Gou Jian immediately responded: "No! I don't dare to forget!"
I really dare not forget it.
He was once trapped in Kuaiji Mountain, where his life and death were uncertain.
He was the one who suffered all the humiliation in the Wu Kingdom for three years, worked as a slave and tasted excrement, and it was he who lost his wife to death.
This scene has long become his nightmare.
I dreamed back at midnight and couldn't struggle out.
If he does not wash away this humiliation, he will act recklessly.
"Wen Zhong, do you have any good strategies to help me avenge myself, destroy the Wu Kingdom, and become a hegemon?"
There was no one around, so Gou Jian earnestly requested Wen Zhong.
He knew his own abilities. In terms of being a great talent in governing the country and governing the people, he was not as good as Wen Zhong. In terms of being a great talent in training and strengthening the army, he was not as good as Fan Li.
But, he is the king.
What he has to do is to be self-aware and make good use of the two sharp blades in his hands, instead of going his own way and taking the initiative to attack Wu like three years ago, which ended in a miserable ending.
Well, Corporal Li Xian, following the good deeds is what he has to do.
Hearing this, Wen Zhong didn't have any trouble on his face.
This answer has been described in my heart thousands of times.
"Your Majesty, I have seven skills that can help you destroy Wu."
The famous Seven Techniques to Destroy Wu was born from this.
"First, I suggest donating gold and silver to please your ruler and ministers."
"Second, buy Wu's grain and millet at a high price to reduce the grain accumulation in his treasury."
"Third, offering beautiful women not only shows loyalty but also confuses the King of Wu's mind."
"Fourth, the good wood of the bridge left behind made it a great palace and a waste of money for the people."
…
…
"Seventh, accumulate wealth, select and train soldiers, wait for their weaknesses to be exposed, and attack them unprepared."
…
When he saw Xi Shi Zheng Dan in Wu Palace, Sun Ge knew that Fan Li was not going to stop.
The reputation of "Huansha Shuangshu" is indeed well-deserved.
Xi Shi, fourteen years old, is extremely charming and has a sophisticated orchestral melody.
Zheng Dan is good at dancing and extremely beautiful, and is a little more strong-willed than Xi Shi's charm.
The husband is very happy to find a beautiful woman.
What was presented to Fu Chai along with the beauty were fine materials that had been carefully carved and decorated.
A rare beauty in the world should naturally be hidden in the most gorgeous and spectacular palace.
Fuchai, the king of Wu, who was deceived by Bo Pi, made up his mind to rebuild the Gusu Terrace. He could see the scenic spots in the capital of Wu, see the Guanwa Palace, and be blessed with Xi Shi.
Wu Zixu dragged his sick body and wrote down a list of remonstrances.
The candlelight flickered, and the old man with white hair and beard looked sad.
"Father, I have found a new beauty and good talent, and there is also Dazai Bo Pei who is fanning the flames. When I am in high spirits, I will not listen to any advice."
In particular, Wu Zixu's advice was still very personal.
"I heard that extravagance is the foundation of disaster, and shame is the foundation of disaster. In the past, Jie built the Xia Terrace and the country perished. King Zhou built the Lu Terrace and lost his life. This is a clear proof of the loss of the country by worshiping the tower..."
"May your Majesty
Taixie, slandering sycophants from far away, deposing beauties, and managing the affairs of the country will bring blessings to the country and the people without borders. Otherwise, if the minister dies and is the leader, he will be killed willingly. The superior will not be ashamed of the previous king, and the subordinate will not be humiliated by the powerful Yue. The courage of the minister will be revealed. , Begging for holiness, caring for the foolishness of ministers, and having no regrets even if I die. "
These admonitions that care about the country and the people will become a sharp sword to kill Wu Zixu in the future.
Wu Zixu did not raise his head, but sighed faintly, "As a minister, I risk my life to give advice, relieve the king's worries, and eliminate the king's difficulties."
"As soon as my father becomes the Prime Minister of Wu State, he should shoulder his own responsibilities."
"On his deathbed, the late king entrusted me with the rise and fall of the Kingdom of Wu."
"Seeing that the country of Wu has come step by step to where it is today, I feel guilty that I cannot advise the king or avoid danger."
Sun Ge held Wu Zixu's hand and said in a deep voice, "Father, Fu Chai is not He Lu."
"In addition to being the Prime Minister of Wu State, you are also yourself."
"Father, you have done your best."
"The late king knew what he was doing, so I won't blame you."
"You want to submit your remonstrance, but my son has no objection."
"However, Fu Chai must be very angry and even more intent on killing his father."
"Father, resign."
"Take this opportunity and let's go."
Wu Zixu curled his lips. Under the dim candlelight, his cloudy eyes were filled with indescribable kindness.
"Is Feng'er planning to trade himself for his father's safety and escape unscathed?"
"My father's flesh and blood and half his life have long been integrated into the Wu Kingdom."
"Too many people don't want to see a glorious life of being a supreme minister to their father, and then they can retire with success and have a good death!"
"Here, some are fearful, some are angry, some are jealous, and some hate."
"Even the high and mighty King Wu is worried about letting go of the rope that holds him tightly to his father."
"Does Feng'er want you to take the place of your father and bear all these burdens for him, so that he can retreat from the rapids and live a stable life?"
Sun Ge was startled, and Wu Zixu's eyes were so penetrating.
All her plans could not be hidden from Wu Zixu.
As Wu Zixu said, he can't escape.
Even if he goes into seclusion, Fu Chai can't rest assured.
Not to mention, over the years, Wu Zixu, who is upright, stubborn and sharp, has already made countless enemies.
At that time, the late king Helu and Wu Wang Fucha had murderous intentions towards Sun Wu who had retired to seclusion and was unwilling to return to the court. Now, Wu Zixu's situation is even worse than that of Sun Wu back then.
Fu Chai disliked Wu Zixu, but he also knew Wu Zixu's ability.
Sunge's mind suddenly recalled the sentence he heard somewhere somewhere: "They pray to gods but they hate them; they serve gods but they kill them."
"Father, there is a way for the child to escape."
"Father, please trust me once more."
The fate of the country of Wu was not in her hands. She did not have the right time, place, or people, nor did she have the power to make the decision. She could not change it.
But she can handle Wu Zixu's death.
With her here, Wu Zixu didn't have to commit suicide or have his eyes dug out and hung in the city gate.
To Wu, Wu Zixu deserves to have a clear conscience and a good death.
"When the child is in court, Fu Chai will relax his vigilance."
"With the abilities of my father and Uncle Sun Wu, it is not difficult to leave quietly and live a truly carefree life."
"Father, the child can really escape."
"You forgot, I promised you that I would get a wife and have children."
It's time for her indestructible power to come into play.
"As short as two or three years, as long as three to five years."
