The King of Chu was not a great man.
He is very active in engaging in such small conspiracies. This can be seen from the fact that he has sent assassins to assassinate this and that many times.
In his opinion, killing Xiao Yuan would solve all problems.
But he never thought about the consequences of this incident.
After thinking deeply, King Wu also asked in a solemn voice: "What's the plan?"
King Chu said: "There will be a banquet tomorrow. At the banquet, we can first use Qingfengsu to charm King Qin and Xu Hu. When the time comes, they will be fish on the chopping board for me to slaughter."
"Qingfengsu?" King Wu raised his eyebrows.
The King of Chu explained: "This is a kind of incense. Used alone, it has no toxicity. But if it is combined with cinnamon wine, it will have a stupor effect."
"That is to say, we can change to cinnamon wine tomorrow and order Qingfeng crisp in the hall. As long as King Qin and Xu Hu drink the wine and smell the incense, they will definitely drink it!" Wu Wang said.
"That's right!" King Chu's face became more and more gloomy.
"What a plan! I think it works!" King Wu couldn't help but praise it.
It is true that if poison is simply poisoned, the king's food will definitely be detected, but cinnamon wine is not poisonous, and Qingfengsu is also non-toxic, which makes it difficult to prevent it.
And assassination is even more impossible.
After thinking it was feasible, King Wu asked again: "King Ling will definitely be at tomorrow's banquet. Do you want to inform him in advance? Otherwise, something bad may happen."
"That's inappropriate." King Chu said, "Things that are carefully considered should not be revealed to the public."
"But in this case, the Spirit King will inevitably be confused, and misunderstandings will inevitably occur. More importantly, when the Spirit Kingdom guards and Si Liying saw this situation, they must have thought that we were planning to kill the Spirit King, so we should not rush in. Come in and fight for your life?" King Wu said.
"This..." King Chu frowned, "What do you think?"
King Wu thought for a while and said: "We can test King Ling's reaction first, and then act accordingly. I think he is also happy to see King Qin's body left here."
"Well..." King Chu nodded slowly, and said a little worriedly: "No matter what, this matter is very important, so it is better to be cautious."
"I understand." King Wu reassured him.
The two kings wanted to do something confidential, and after discussing it, they also went to see the Spirit King that night.
Although it was already dark at this time, the Spirit King had not yet fallen asleep. He was a little surprised when he heard that the two of them were coming, but he still met the two of them in the hall immediately.
As before, when the King of Chu hesitated to speak, King Ling understood and dismissed Cheng Ping.
Then, the King of Chu cupped his hands and said, "I'm here late at night, and I'm so intrusive. Please forgive me, Brother Ling Wang."
"No, no, Brother Chu is too polite." King Ling said with a smile on his face, and then said casually: "Oh, by the way, I don't know why?"
"That's it." The King of Chu organized his words and began to avoid the important points and said: "Now that the general trend of the world is over, the King of Qin dominates the north, but he is still ambitious and wants to devour the world. I often think about the worries in the south of the Yangtze River. I often think about what if Wu Chu and Wu Chu Qin is at war again, I wonder if Brother Ling Wang can help us."
"Of course!" King Ling didn't even think about it and said directly: "At the beginning, all the countries formed an alliance to defeat the Qin Dynasty. The two countries of Wu and Chu all helped each other. How could I, the king, not form an alliance?"
"Is this true?" King Chu was shocked.
"How can this be false!" King Ling vowed: "The barbaric Qin is tyrannizing the world, and the King of Qin's ambition is well known to everyone. If the countries do not unite, it will be like an overturned nest, and there will be no eggs left."
As he spoke, he said seriously: "When the previous emperor was killed, I had the intention to attack Qin. I was afraid that you two monarchs would not join the alliance, so I did not launch an army easily. If the two countries of Wu and Chu were willing to join forces with Qin, Zhan, Lingguo, is definitely on your side, there is nothing to say."
King Ling, an old fox, would say that he was on Qin's side when he was next to Xiao Yuan, but he would use the same rhetoric again when he was in front of Wu Chu.
After hearing this, the two kings Wu and Chu couldn't help but look at each other.
King Chu said: "With Brother Ling Wang's words, I feel relieved."
King Wu couldn't wait any longer. He leaned forward slightly and said, "In that case, what if King Qin dies in Baize?"
"What!?" The Spirit King was shocked, his heart was shaken, and his pupils shrank sharply.
King Chu frowned secretly, secretly blaming King Wu for speaking too early, but he had already spoken and could no longer take it back.
King Wu Shao has ambitions, but he is also somewhat ambitious and arrogant. In terms of planning methods, he is actually not as good as the old King Wu.
He just said such a huge thing, which also shows his character.
After the shock, King Ling also lowered his voice and asked: "Don't you two already have a plan?"
"This..." King Wu hesitated.
The King of Chu quickly said: "This is just a hypothesis. I want to kill the King of Qin, but it is not that easy for the king of a country."
"Haha--" King Ling smiled heartily when he heard this, and said: "That's true, but having said that, if King Qin dies in Baize, it will relieve the world's worries."
After saying that, he said deliberately: "If you two have any good ideas, I will definitely cooperate with you."
"Oh?" King Wu was shocked and looked at King Chu again.
Next, there was another insinuation conversation.
The King of Spirits is so shrewd and sophisticated. Just listen to his words and watch his actions, and you already know it in your heart.
After the two left, Cheng Ping returned to the hall. He first saluted King Ling, and then said: "The two kings of Wu and Chu, coming here at night, must have a conspiracy. The humble minister is daring, I don't know if he will know about it."
Cheng Ping is a close minister of the Ling King and the number one adviser of the Ling Kingdom. Naturally, the Ling King will not hide anything from him. He said with a smile: "Of course, I'm afraid there will be something good to watch now."
"Oh? Your Majesty means..." Cheng Ping's curiosity was aroused.
King Ling said happily: "The two kings of Wu and Chu, in their words just now, there is a lot of intention to harm the King of Qin. Do you think this is very interesting?"
"What?" Cheng Ping was also taken aback and said in slight shock: "This...this matter is so unexpected."
"Yes, this is something I didn't expect." King Ling said, "However, this is what I want to see most."
After saying that, he looked at Cheng Ping again and asked with a smile: "Tell me, do I want to inform King Qin now?"
"No, Your Majesty." Cheng Ping reacted and said immediately: "If this matter is true, regardless of whether Wu Chu succeeds or not, our country should work hard to clear up the relationship and pretend that we don't know anything about it."
"They succeeded. If the King of Qin dies, but the Qin Kingdom and King Xuanhui are still there, and seeing her husband being killed, the queen will definitely be furious. She will desperately mobilize all the troops in the country and march southward, fighting to the death."
"Even if it doesn't succeed, wouldn't King Qin be furious? After returning, why not send troops?"
"No matter which outcome, for us, it is perfect."
"Haha!" The Spirit King was delighted, "What Ai Qing said makes sense."
