As Gu Xun and the others embarked on their journey, the King of Wei pretended to surrender, and the news of Wei's demise quickly spread throughout the world.
Needless to say, the Qin State just needs the whole country to celebrate.
The two countries of the Yan Dynasty huddled in the last bit of territory, closed their eyes and pretended to be dead, not caring about worldly affairs.
In fact, the only ones who really responded were Qi and Chu.
Among them, the domestic reaction of the Chu State was average, because the new Chu King was not in the right position, and he is still unclear about his relationship with the domestic aristocracy, and there is serious internal strife.
Even though the Qin State had destroyed three countries in a row and severely damaged two countries, only two countries were left alone in the entire Shandong region.
This is human nature, after all... heretics are more hateful than heretics.
However, the fact that the King of Chu did not care about Qin did not mean that others did not care about him either.
Qin State, Chen Ying.
It was the former capital of Chu State and the current county of Qin State.
Due to the influence of the rebellion by the Korean nobles, Xiong Qi, the right minister of the Qin State, Changping Lord, was demoted to this place by the King of Qin.
On the one hand, this is a small punishment from the King of Qin to Lord Changping. On the other hand, it is also for Xiong Qi, a Qin minister who was born as a prince of Chu, to come here to appease the old people of Chu, lest they follow the same example as those untouchables in Korea. The same rebellion.
As for the effect... of course you can't see it.
You don’t know whether appeasement is effective or not. Anyway, you are good to me before you rebel. If you rebel, appeasement is not good.
In fact, after Xiong Qi came to Chen Ying, he kept going deep and simple, and his people were actively contacting the old Chu people in Chen Di, and seemed to be performing their duties.
After receiving the news of the demise of Wei State, some mysterious people with unknown identities began to come and go from Xiong Qi's mansion in Chendi.
In a dark secret room.
Xiong Qi, who was energetic but could not hide the sadness on his brow, sat in the first seat. The person sitting next to him had a nine-star bead grass hanging on his shoulder, which represented the identity of the peasant hero.
It was Tian Guang who had been silent for a long time.
Xiong Qi asked slightly tiredly, "What's the situation inside Chu State like now?"
Tian Guang shook his head slightly and sighed, "The internal fighting is still serious, and I'm afraid the Qin forces are behind it."
"The new king..."
Upon hearing this, Lord Changping couldn't help but have a hint of anger in his eyes, and he said angrily, "This is an incompetent person who doesn't accomplish anything!"
Even though more than a year had passed, he was still annoyed that he had accidentally allowed his food-addicted half-brother to usurp the throne.
To be honest, for Xiong Qi, it doesn't matter who is the King of Chu, Xiong You or Fu Chu. Anyway, there is no way to say who is better than the other.
The problem is that you have to be able to secure the throne!
Once this guy Ling Chu made a coup, he happily sat on the throne. As a result, the domestic situation is still unstable to this day.
Can't you just be more honest?
Didn't you think about how to appease the aristocratic forces in the country before the coup?
What the hell!
Originally, Lord Changping planned to remain hidden in Qin, waiting for opportunities to act and help Chu secretly. After all, with Chu's national power, even if it faced Qin, it could be in a stalemate for a long time.
As a result, after this incident, he no longer dared to continue being a yinbi.
Considering the current chaotic situation in the Chu State, one might not be careful to estimate that the Qin army could directly defeat Shouchun and hold it back for a whole spring.
That's why he thought of various ways to get himself to Chen Yingli without leaving any trace.
If the Qin army attacks Chu next, they will definitely send troops from here, which is the most suitable location for him to attack.
Changping Jun rubbed the corners of his eyes, took two deep breaths to suppress his anger, and asked again, "Have you contacted General Xiang Yan?"
Tian Guang nodded, "We have contacted him, but General Xiang Yan seems to have a lot of concerns and is not willing to make more contacts."
Xiang Yan doesn't want to contact Changping Jun's faction, not because he doesn't trust them. In fact, they have been in contact with each other before and they are familiar with each other.
It's just that this time is too special.
The throne was unstable due to negative Chu usurping the throne. However, Xiong Qi was also a prince of Chu and had the right to sit on the throne.
Xiang Yan is mainly afraid that once he clearly expresses his position, another coup will be triggered.
Although the other party has never expressed any intention of getting involved in the throne, Xiang Yan does not dare to bet. After all, the temptation of the throne is too great, especially since the throne is still unstable.
Even though he didn't like the new king Fu Chu very much, it was not appropriate for Chu State to cause any more troubles at this time.
Regarding this old acquaintance, Chang Ping-kun understood the other person's thoughts very well and could also guess the reason why he distanced himself from him, so he was not too surprised by Tian Guang's answer.
He just snorted in a low voice and ordered, "Well... at this juncture, he will naturally not approach us rashly, but when things become unavoidable, I believe he will make the most appropriate choice."
"Keep in touch with him and clarify our plans."
"Well, a certain family understands." Tian Guang nodded in agreement, and immediately reported again, "The farm disciples have also begun to sneak into this place secretly, and all the manpower is in place. It is estimated that it will take nearly half a year."
"Half a year... there's enough time." Chang Pingjun murmured softly.
"Chu has a vast territory and a large population. Qin will not rush to raise its troops. We still have plenty of time to prepare. Remember, we must keep it secret and cannot be discovered."
Tian Guang clasped his fists and replied decisively, "Don't worry, Mr. Changping, a certain family understands the stakes here and will definitely be careful."
"Huh..." Mr. Changping exhaled deeply again, his face looking increasingly tired.
During this time, he was thinking very hard.
It is really not easy to hide the truth from the Qin State and the King of Qin and plan a huge rebellion.
Just to come to Chendi in a reasonable and reasonable way, he had been planning for half a year.
When he thought of this, he couldn't help but secretly curse that loser.
After cursing a few words to vent his anger, Lord Changping asked Tian Guang again, "Is there still no response from Qi State?"
Tian Guang shook his head with regret, "No."
"Prime Minister Qi Housheng is willing to contact us, but he only talks about money. It is obvious that he will help whoever has more money. However, the Qin State spent a lot of money to win over him. We..."
We can't afford the overweight that can buy him off.
Xiong Qi is not short of money, but it depends on who he is competing with.
For the Qin State, which had just seized Han Zhaoyan, and the Wei State treasury was basically on the way, money was obviously only a problem on Xiong Qi's side.
Tian Guang continued, "As for King Qi Jian's side, we successfully hooked up with Zong Zheng and Tian Dan, King Qi's confidants, but once we reached the final link of King Qi, there was no news."
"Obviously, Qi Wangjian is not willing to pay attention to us."
"That's all. If that's the case, then don't hold out hope for Qi State anymore. Let's implement the established plan step by step." After hearing this, Xiong Qi couldn't hide his disappointment, but he didn't get too entangled.
King Qi Jian's salted fish was well known to the world, but he actually didn't have much hope.
If there is less help, then there will be less help. None of our own people (referring to Fu Chu) can be relied on, let alone others.
