"It's such a good wine, it's a pity that senior brother didn't have the chance to drink it."

After Ziyu finished speaking, he took a sip of wine, and Jing Ke also tore off the seal of the wine jar and took a sip of monkey wine. Jing Ke suddenly shuddered, the blush on his face became heavier, and he suddenly became unable to speak.

The two were drinking wine on the hillside, talking about some jokes, and quickly finished the wine in the wine jar. Looking at Jing Ke who was unconscious, Zi You put Jing Ke on his shoulders. He walked down the mountain with two jars in his other hand.

After handing Jing Ke to Gongsun Liji, who had been waiting for a long time, Ziyou also returned to his room.

In the early morning of the next day, the envoys from hundreds of families and various countries began to leave. After Ziyou got up, he tidied up and took everyone to say goodbye to the Six-fingered Black Man. Then he left the Mo Family Headquarters and came to the small town at the foot of the mountain. Five hundred soldiers were ready, and Qin's black black bird flag had been erected. Envoys from other countries around them looked at this scene and hid far away, not daring to get close at all.

Mo Ya handed the two boxes to the soldier, who found a flatbed truck, put the boxes on it, and was ready to set off.

Chu Nan Gong looked at Zi You who got into the carriage and shook his head. This time, the Yin Yang family came to attend the Mo family meeting. They also had another purpose. Chu Nan Gong and Xing Hun received orders from Donghuang Taiyi to cooperate with Chu Mo's forty-eight They joined forces to attack Ziyou, but the forty-eight people from Chu Mo were slaughtered by the God Swordsman and the five Mo Bian. Ziyou was also protected by five hundred soldiers. They never had the chance to make a move and could only watch Ziyou leave.

Xinghun looked at the back of the carriage with a look of pity in his eyes. He had always thought about being able to fight Ziyou at the Mohist Conference and repeat the deeds of Ziyou's debate in Jixia Academy and become famous all over the world. Now it seems that he can only I can find another chance.

Luna looked at the carriage and was also distracted. Her mind was not on Ziyou, but on her sister Dongjun Feiyan.

"Let's go. If we don't leave, the people from Jieshi Palace will come." Chu Nan Gong shook his head and said.

Hearing the name of Jieshi Palace, Moon God and Xinghun also took back their thoughts and followed Chu Nan Gong to prepare to leave the Yan Kingdom. Jieshi Palace is the headquarters of the Eight Meridians of Yin. If those people know that they are in the Yan Kingdom, they will definitely take action to arrest them.

Ziyou and others returned to Xianyang without stopping at all along the way. There was also news that followed Ziyou back to Xianyang. There was civil strife in Chu, and Li Yuan's army besieged Lord Changping. The army was led by Xiang Bo, Xiang Liang and Fan Zeng. beat.

The leader of the Jing family was captured and fled. The 100,000 troops assembled by Li Yuan and Qu Jingzhao died in 30,000 battles and surrendered 20,000. The remaining 50,000 also fled and were defeated. Seeing that Lord Changping was about to counterattack, he was preparing to march north towards Shou. When Chunfang attacked, Yang Duanhe and Sima Xin quickly captured Xicheng with an army of 50,000. Yang Duan and the remaining defenders in Xicheng blocked the attacking Changping Lord, which allowed the three families of Li Yuan and Qu Jingzhao to survive. Come down.

After the news spread all over the world, everyone was wondering what method Li Yuan and Qu Jingzhao would choose to regain their position. They and Lord Changping are destined to survive now. In the name of Qing Junzi, Lord Changping shouted that he was cleaning up Li Garden, but what was actually going on? Now there are rumors in Chu that Qu Jingzhao's family has colluded with Li Yuan, so Qu Jingzhao's family is also the target of Lord Changping. This completely cuts off the way out for Qu Jingzhao's family. As for who spread this news, no one knows. No one went to investigate.

Just when the melon-eating people thought that the three families of Li Yuan and Qu Jingzhao were preparing to gather their strength again and mobilize the whole country to encircle and suppress Lord Changping, something happened in Shouchun that shocked the world. The three families of Qu Jingzhao launched a coup in Shouchun, claiming that King Xiong Han of Chu was not a bloodline of the King of Chu, but the son of Chun Shenjun. This was regarded as exposing the scandal of the Chu royal family to the world.

Under the instigation of Confucian disciples, the three heads of the family, Prince Fu Chu and Qu Jingzhao, led the army to attack the Chu Palace. Even some of the Imperial Guards in the Chu Palace were instigated by Fu Chu to rebel. Li Yuan relied on his retainers and the remaining Imperial Guards to lead Chu. Wang Xionghan, his sister Li Huan and Li Huan's youngest son Xiong You fled Shouchun and headed south towards Gusu. Song Yang and Gusu in Guangling, Shaoguan, Shucheng in the south of Chu State were controlled by Li Yuan's confidants. By.

Qu Jingzhao and Prince Ning Chu's army chased Li Yuan. Worried that Li Yuan would be overtaken, the Confucian disciples under Ning Chu secretly began to help Li Yuan and held back the army. In the end, Li Yuan successfully escaped into Shaoguan, and Li Yuan followed After the explanation, the defenders took Chu King Xiong Han and a group of people to Gusu. Gusu was the capital of the Wu Kingdom. After the Wu Kingdom was destroyed by the Yue Kingdom, it did not abandon Gusu. Instead, it maintained Gusu. Prosperity, after the Chu State destroyed the Yue State and occupied all the territory of the Yue State, Gusu still maintained prosperity, and even the original Wu Palace left many palaces.

After arriving in Gusu, Li Yuan sent people to clean up the Wu Palace, and once again welcomed the King of Chu, Xiong Han, into the palace. He also regarded the three families of Fu Chu and Qu Jingzhao as traitors, and issued an edict ordering the Qin kings from all over the Chu state to protect them and punish the rebels. thief.

When Li Yuan fled Shouchun, in order to claim the name of the King of Chu, he specially asked people to take away the seals of the King of Chu and the Queen Mother's seal, as well as the tablets of the previous Chu kings and the genealogy of the Chu royal family, etc., although they were lost on the way to escape. Part of the thing, but the Chu King's seal and the Queen Mother's seal, as well as the Chu royal family's genealogy are still there, which is enough to maintain the legitimacy of Chu King Xiong Han's throne.

Because King Xiong Han of Chu, some of the generals who defended the city raised troops to protect the king. In order to win over the people, Qu Jingzhao and his son Fu Chu, who were unwilling to bear the name of a traitor, held a succession ceremony for Fu Chu in Shouchun, and used the captured The tablets of Chu kings in the past dynasties and the Chu royal family's sacrifices in the ancestral temple ensure the legitimacy of the Chu king.

With Lord Changping watching eagerly from the side, neither Fu Chu nor Li Yuan dared to easily mobilize their troops to attack each other, fearing that Lord Changping would take advantage of the opportunity. Because both Ning Chu and Xiong Han have certain legitimacy as kings of Chu, both sides used the name of king Chu to win over the people and the defenders of cities in various places. Without any benefit, both sides turned their attention to Lord Changping, who had no legitimacy.

Qu Jingzhao used the name of bearing cud, and Li Yuan used the name of Xiong Han. Both sides forced Lord Changping, while wooing Lord Changping. It can be said that both sides held the King of Chu hostage to order Changping Lord. The slogan shouted by Lord Changping was to punish rebellion, not rebellion, so Lord Changping still had to obey the orders from the King of Chu.

Just when the melon-eating people thought that Lord Changping would play both sides, beating this and that to maintain his own justice, Lord Changping took out the edict of the late king Xiong Wan of Chu in Yingdu and succeeded to the throne as another king of Chu. Lord Changping also found the original treasure of Chu State, the King of Chu Tripod in Yingdu.

As for why Lord Changping became king at this time, Gongyang Ru said that I don’t know, and it has nothing to do with me. I just dug out a big cauldron from the palace of the King of Chu in Yingdu. As for what this cauldron is, I don’t know. Yes, I only know this is auspicious.

After King Helu of Wu captured the capital of Ying, in order to eliminate the resistance of the Chu people against him, he wanted to destroy all the symbols of Chu. Among them, the King of Chu's tripod, which was the spirit of Chu, was naturally among his goals, but King Wu Before Helu could destroy the King of Chu's tripod, the troops of Chu and Qin launched a counterattack. After that, Helu died in the battle and the King of Chu's tripod was missing. Now Lord Changping took out the King of Chu's tripod, and also It can be regarded as the legitimacy of occupying the throne.

The great Chu State was suddenly divided into three. Each of the three Chu kings had a certain degree of legitimacy, and they all had a certain degree of illegitimacy. With Changping Lord becoming king, no one among the three parties could order anyone else anymore. However, the three parties did not dare to send troops to attack the other party without authorization, for fear that the third party would benefit from sending troops while they were fighting to the death, so a new round of public opinion war began.

Three voices emerged throughout the Chu Kingdom. Li Yuan, Fu Chu and Chang Ping Jun all said that the other people's thrones were illegal and treasonous, and asked neutral defenders to surrender to them. The entire Chu Kingdom was suddenly in a state of chaos. Except for the three Chu kings, some neutral defenders and wealthy families took advantage of the chaos and began to seek personal gain for themselves.

From the beginning of Xiong Yi's power at the end, to Chu Aoruo and Xiong Yi uniting the southern tribes to form an alliance, and then to the Spring and Autumn Period when King Chu Cheng was dying, he continued to annex the surrounding small vassal states. The Emperor of Zhou bestowed the title of Xun and ordered the Chu state to guard Central and South China. Then Xiong Tong overrode and proclaimed himself king, and he became King Wu of Chu. During the reign of King Zhuang of Chu, he appointed Yu Qiuzi, Sun Shuao and other wise ministers to aspire to conquer the Central Plains. He defeated Jin in the Battle of Bi and became hegemonic, ushering in the most prosperous era of Chu in the Spring and Autumn Period. Entering the Warring States Period, King Chu Mourning appointed Wu Qi to carry out reforms. For a time, his troops and horses were strong, and he showed his first signs of dominance. The Chu State, known as one country and the world, was completely divided into three pillars, and warlords fought in a melee.

Chu, which had the best chance to compete with Qin, completely lost its qualifications to compete with Qin for the world.

Looking at the civil strife in Chu, Wei and Zhao were completely cold-hearted. Because they were afraid of Qin, with the active operation of Li Mu and Lian Po, Zhao and Wei continued to sign various alliances, and they were just on the verge of merging again and becoming one. The purpose of the Jin State is to support the other side when the Qin State attacks either side.

The whole country of Yan was in turmoil. King Xi of Yan was completely frightened after he found out that Yan Dan had faked his death in order to overthrow the Mo family. He did not dare to go to court anymore and huddled in the harem, fearing that the Mo family would send someone to assassinate him for revenge. When the ministers of the Yan Kingdom saw King Yan like this, they did not dare to say anything. They could only sigh in their hearts that King Yan was bold and the Yan Kingdom was in danger. At the same time, they sent people to the Mo family to seek forgiveness.

After the Qin State learned that the Chu State was completely divided, it immediately began to collect grain and train troops, making no attempt to conceal its next big move. The state of Qi is still the same as before. The king and queen control the government, and the prime minister Hou Sheng continues to cover the sky with one hand, oppressing the people, plundering the people's wealth and anointing, to satisfy his own selfish desires. Qi Wang Tian Jian is still willing to be his own puppet, a good boy for his mother, and continues to play music. dance.

After Ziyou returned to the dynasty, the first snow of the year officially fell. After winter, the Qin State no longer looked like it was ready for war at any time, but entered a rare period of peace. See With Qin's situation like this, other countries also breathed a sigh of relief and hoped to have a good year this year.
