The news that Chu State was going to fight against Xi State had already spread among the big vassal states.
As for the small vassal states, due to their lack of information, until this time, they still had not received the news that the King of Chu had robbed Mrs. Xi Guoji and started a war with Xi State.
As for the heads of the great princes and kingdoms, after receiving the news, they all put their foreheads on their foreheads and smiled: "This Xiong Yui is so romantic, it is quite a romance." As he spoke, he actually regarded Xi Guo's experience as a joke. .
There are also some princes and kings who are closer to Xiguo who are secretly wondering: Why did they not think of attacking Xiguo in advance, which in vain allowed the King of Chu to add a few more cities.
All the princes and kingdoms believed that the Chu army's victory was a sure thing, so when the news came that the Chu army was captured by the Xi country, all the princes and kings were almost shocked.
Ten thousand people went to fight three thousand people and an injured little prince and king, but they lost. Could it be that the King of Chu sent a bear to lead the team into battle!
Emperor Zhou held a banquet every year, so everyone had seen Ji Hou.
It can be seen from Ji Hou's conversation on weekdays that although Ji Hou is tall and handsome in appearance.
But in fact, his temperament is very cowardly, and he is the most typical spokesperson for having a high heart and a low life.
Whenever someone spoke louder, Ji Hou would shrink his neck and listen quietly to the other person's scolding. He didn't look like the leader of a prince at all.
Just like this time, if he hadn't come up with a plan to attack Cai State with the help of Chu State, Xi State would not have suffered such a disaster.
Therefore, no princes would believe that the soldiers led by such a man could actually defeat the Chu army.
Surprised and suspicious, the kings of various countries sent spies to Xiguo to inquire about the situation.
The same doubt was evidently the King of Chu Wen, Xiong Kui. After getting the news, Xiong Kui immediately sent spies to Xiguo to find out the news.
Unfortunately, apart from finding out that the Xiguo city gate collapsed and was being repaired, and some information about Jin Qing's appearance, these spies couldn't find out anything else.
We didn't even get any information as to why there were two big pits outside the city gate.
As spies, they know that the more they want to hide something, the more it means there is something fishy inside.
Therefore, they surrounded the city gate, Guiji and Dakeng and kept talking to the Xiguo people.
But what depresses the spies is that these people from Xiguo, who used to be silly and silly, turned from silly and sweet to smart and ruthless in an instant after hearing their questioning.
I saw them looking at the spies who were inquiring about the news with vigilance: "Who are you? Why are you here to inquire about our country?"
These days, people keep telling everyone the benefits of having a powerful Onmyoji in the country.
Therefore, the Xi people are afraid of these spies, sent by other countries to poach Jin Qing.
People in this era take etiquette and etiquette very lightly, and do things according to their own wishes.
As long as both men and women are willing, a woman can remarry at any time.
Marriage relationships are like this, let alone the capable Yin Yang family.
Although people in Xi were very patriotic, he had to admit that compared to other large vassal states, their country really had no advantages.
In other words, Xiren residents can only eat two meals a day, one dry and one thin.
The slaves, on the other hand, could only eat one porridge a day.
If someone tells them that if you come to my country, I can give you three meals a day, they will definitely move immediately and leave the country without looking back.
Therefore, let alone Jin Qing, who will be sent away by various countries with a lot of money as the gift of the Yin and Yang family.
Knowing that he would never leave Xiguo, Xiren did not want to let Jin Qing go who could protect the safety of Xiguo.
Out of this dark thought, the Xi people immediately formed an alliance, and they decided to hide the news about Jin Qing together.
After discovering something suspicious about these spies, the timid Xiren would quickly report to Li Zheng, saying that they had met a suspicious person, and ask Li Zheng to lead someone to arrest the spies.
The more daring Xiren will quickly summon their partners and tie up the spies tightly and hand them over directly to Lang Yin for investigation.
These spies who were caught inexplicably were also confused: when did the people of Xiguo become so vigilant?
For a time, there was a wave of hunting for spies in the country of Xi. Everyone regarded the spies as enemies who could destroy their families and annihilate their families, and they wanted to kill them quickly.
After sending out a large number of spies, they failed to get the information they wanted. Xiong Yu was depressed for several days, and finally prepared a large sum of money to redeem the remaining Chu troops.
After all, he wanted to know what tactics the other party used to wipe out his 10,000-strong army so easily.
Thinking of Xiong Cen again, Xiong Geng felt even more depressed. That was his most promising nephew, and he died in battle like this. How could he explain it to his biological brother?
Xiong Geng was not willing to exchange the city for prisoners of war. After all, he really couldn't afford to lose this man. After finally discussing with Xi Guo, Chu State sent a lot of gold and silver to Xi Guo.
But he didn't mention anything about sending Xi Gui back. In Xiong Geng's heart, he still believed that Xi Guo's victory was just a fluke. Only a hero like him could be worthy of a beauty like Xi Gui. It was really a waste to stay in Xi Guo. pity.
At the same time, Xiong Geng also sent a marriage certificate to Chen Guo, asking the other party to take back the marriage relationship between Xi Gui and Ji Hou in the name of his parents.
The State of Chu is willing to hire Xi Gui into the Chu Palace with grain, gold, silver, cattle and horses.
By this time, Xi Gui was not only a beauty, but also the face of Xiong Geng who was beaten to the ground by Xi Guo.
No matter what method is used, Xi Gui can only stay in Chu State.
Xiu sent all the money sent by Chu State into Jin Qing's palace. Now that Mrs. Ji is not here and Ji Hou is unconscious, Jin Qing, the concubine, is the only person in the palace who can make the decision.
Not counting the Xigui sisters, Jihou's harem originally had four concubines and fifteen beauties.
Although it sounds like a lot, for the princes of a country, Ji Hou is already a model of cleanliness and self-discipline.
The concubines of princes usually came from common people or noble families, but the beauties were mostly slaves.
Therefore, after all calculations, the only ones that can really be regarded as Jihou's harem are these four concubines.
When the Chu army attacked Xiguo before, these women had secretly left the palace.
Originally, they thought that Xiguo would be defeated, and they had to find a way out for themselves.
But who would have thought that Xiguo not only was not defeated but also won a complete victory.
As a result, their situation becomes awkward.
Although Xiguo is not a wealthy country, Jihou is a prince after all, and they have a lot of everything that should be in the palace.
Therefore, they have long been accustomed to life in the palace, and if they are asked to live like ordinary people, they will not be able to adapt at all.
However, now there is a very thorny little problem.
