Chapter 333: Accompanying you is like accompanying a tiger
I Won’t Be a King in the Spring and Autumn Period Chapter 333 Accompanying the King is Like Accompanying a Tiger
Whether Qingfeng's head should be chopped off or not has now become a difficult problem.
When the King of Chu originally raised this issue, he probably never thought that he would also encounter difficulties on this issue.
Just as Li Ran said.
Cut it off? Then you lose a guide who is very familiar with the situation in Wu. Then when Chu uses troops against Wu in the future, it may inevitably be hampered by Wu's army's various tricks.
But why don’t you kill him? How can you convince others? How can you boost the morale of his troops in Chu?
After weighing the pros and cons, King Chu finally slowly raised his head, looked at Li Ran with a different look and said:
"The traitor Qing Feng has deserved his death, so sir, please stop interceding for him."
Yes, King Chu finally chose to chop off Qingfeng’s head!
There was a hint of indifference in his tone, and his face was very stern. These words sounded unquestionable.
All the Chu ministers present were excited and hurriedly kowtowed to the King of Chu:
"Your Majesty is wise!"
Li Ran was stunned when he saw this, and was about to give advice, but unexpectedly King Chu waved his hand to stop him.
Just listen to the King of Chu explain again:
"What you said is not unreasonable, but how can a small Qingfeng compare with the morale of our Chu State's 100,000-strong army?"
"The small country of Wu can be destroyed by my king at the snap of a finger, so why should I celebrate it?"
At this point, King Chu's attitude was very clear, and he finally sided with his ministers and Brother Ji.
I have to say that his choice is really in line with Chu people's consistent style.
Because he wanted to make great achievements and lead the Chu State to regain the hegemony of King Chuzhuang, he had to rely on these generals under him.
What's more, he personally moved the capital to Qianxi this time in order to revive the country's prestige and use the most ferocious momentum to attack Soochow! To defeat Soochow! In this way, he could further intimidate the Central Plains!
He completely disdained the things in Qing Feng's head. On the contrary, his head itself seemed more important to him.
Nice romance novel
All in all, in the eyes of King Chu, the morale of the Chu army is the most critical thing now!
It’s no wonder that when long-term worries and short-term worries conflict, especially when the future situation is still unclear, most people will choose a safer plan.
That is to say, choose to solve the immediate difficulties first.
Of course, there was actually another reason why King Chu flatly rejected Li Ran's suggestion this time.
For the first time, he had doubts about Li Ran's words.
In other words, he began to doubt Li Ran's words.
He suspected that the real intention of what Li Ran just said might not be really for the sake of the Chu country, but had other purposes.
Perhaps Qingfeng really knew something about the situation in Wu.
But will this really play a key role in his upcoming war against Wu?
On the battlefield, the situation is changing rapidly. Not to mention that Qingfeng is now a prisoner, and some of the information he knows may have changed.
Even if some of the information he knows has not changed at all, so what? No matter how crazy King Chu is, can he really believe Qing Feng's lies?
Therefore, there was actually a very serious logical flaw in what Li Ran said. And it was this flaw that made King Chu directly doubt him.
There must be other reasons why Li Ran emphasized leaving Qing to seal his life.
The King of Chu didn't know what the reason was, but he could feel that Li Ran's advice was not sincere.
Li Ran looked at the decisive King Chu, and his mind went blank for a moment. He did not expect that King Chu would reject his suggestion at this time.
He wanted to say something more to continue to restore the situation, but he didn't know what else to say.
Afterwards, he could only watch helplessly as King Chu finally issued the order to enter Zhufang City and hold a swearing-in meeting.
As mentioned before, the purpose of King Chu's personal expedition this time was to make achievements in person. Although Zhongli was defeated, he did not have any involvement in it, which was naturally unsatisfactory for him.
The purpose of convening the swearing-in meeting was to take this opportunity to refresh his sense of existence.
Li Ran didn't stop him because he knew it was useless to say anything now.
When Li Ran withdrew from the tent, Sun Wu learned that King Chu was about to chop off Qingfeng's head, and he immediately frowned and said:
"Sir, the King of Chu is so determined to do this, I am afraid that he is doing injustice to you!"
Li Ran promised Qingfeng to save his life, but the "stubborn" King Chu did not do as he wished.
"Hey, King Chu Hutu!"
"Hu Tu! Really Hu Tu!"
Li Ran was so angry that he slapped his hand on the coffee table, causing the cup to fall over and make a crisp sound.
The anger and annoyance on his face were visible to the naked eye, and his originally handsome face suddenly became very sad.
"Then how about we..."
Sun Wu glanced at Zuo Jun's camp, and his meaning was obvious - let Qing Feng go directly.
Unexpectedly, Li Ran shook his head helplessly and said:
"Not to mention that it is impossible for Qingfeng to escape from Qianxi. If he really escapes, it will be tantamount to putting ourselves to death."
"This King of Chu, his scars have really healed and he has forgotten the pain!"
Did King Xiong Wei of Chu commit too many mistakes because of his eagerness for quick success?
Apparently a lot.
However, the King of Chu did not take warning. Instead, he was directly dazzled by the victories in front of him, and he became more and more willful.
His obsession with these four words "making great achievements" seemed like he was possessed by a demon.
How far can such a person go? What kind of achievements can he achieve?
Li Ran couldn't help but feel annoyed at his initial "heartbeat".
He didn't expect that King Xiong Wei of Chu, whom he had already changed his mind about, was still a shallow-minded person after all.
"Wu has another plan."
"Sir, do you still remember the trick we used when we were in Qufu? No? Find someone with a similar body shape and appearance to him, and then..."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! In order to prevent Li Ran from breaking his promise, Sun Wu thought of the method they had used.
But his proposal was still rejected by Li Ran.
"This strategy is not possible. At that time, the crown prince of the Lu Kingdom had a similar appearance as his bodyguards, and his words and deeds were all influenced by his ears and eyes, so he could confuse the fake with the real one. However, now this Qingfeng, he looks very much like a northerner.
Obviously, they are very different from the southerners, so how can we replace them?"
"Moreover, back then, the prince of Lu was a kind man, and everyone around him was willing to die for him. But now Qingfeng is so evil, and his best friends have scattered in all directions, how can he find someone to die for him?"
"Hey, forget it! It seems that we can't stop Qing Feng's death."
Li Ran had to admit that the Haikou he had previously praised in front of the Qing Dynasty was indeed somewhat inadequate.
When things have developed to this point, they are completely beyond his control.
The resolute attitude of the King of Chu and the hatred of the Chu generals towards Qing Feng were enough to cost Qing Feng his life.
If he secretly makes a plan again and deliberately lets Qing Feng live, if this matter is known to the King of Chu, not only Qing Feng will definitely die, but even his own situation will become extremely dangerous.
This made Li Ran inevitably feel a little frustrated. He couldn't imagine that his sharp tongue could not save a useless person in the end.
And from beginning to end, he never thought of deceiving anyone. Even to the King of Chu, his words of advice were always sincere.
However, his sincerity only caused him a lot of stinking in the end.
"Hey...it is true that accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger...perhaps this is the art of the emperor."
With a sigh, Li Ran felt extremely depressed for a moment.
Of course, when Sun Wu heard Li Ran's word "emperor" at this time, he certainly didn't know what it meant. After all, the "emperor" in their era generally only refers to the Five Emperors and is synonymous with the gods. (For example: Nianzi
Here, only the emperor is thinking of merit.)
At this time, Li Ran waved slightly towards Sun Wushi, indicating that he wanted to be alone, and then sat alone in front of the eucalyptus table, watching the cicadas and birds flying outside the tent, looking sleepy.
He was thinking that maybe it was time to leave here.
