King Xiong Han of Chu was asking the Great Wizard alone, "Great Wizard, this time I sent troops to Wei State, what do the gods say? Is the result good or bad?"
The great shaman has a very high status in the Chu culture that advocates witchcraft by gods and men.
When she answered Xiong Han, her eyes were slightly closed, and her plain voice seemed to break with a poke, "Not bad, not bad."
Xiong Han looked puzzled, "What does this mean? Everything must have a result. Great wizard, can you be more specific?"
"If there is a change at home, there will be no success outside the army." After saying this, the great witch bowed to the King of Chu and slowly left the palace.
Are there changes in the country?
Xiong Han suddenly became nervous. Who will change? Aren’t the clans all thinking about carving up Qi in the coming year? Who will change at this time...
"Your Majesty, there is military information coming from Shangzhu Kingdom."
"come on in."
The soldiers quickly entered the palace and handed over their military information.
"The State of Qi has stationed troops on the mainland, and Xiang Yan has temporarily stationed at the border to request the king's order...the troops have failed to achieve success..."
Xiong Han fell into silence for a while after reading the military situation.
The urgent military wizard has already said it accurately, what exactly is this thing that has changed?!
Could it be Xiong Fuchu? Xiong Qi? It can't be his brother Xiong You...
The King of Chu was suspicious and had a hard time making a decision in his reply to Xiang Yan. The army was stationed outside, and every day people ate and chewed horses to earn money. If it stayed for a long time, the clan would not trouble Xiang Yan, but only him, the king.
As you can imagine, Xiong Han may not be able to sleep well in the next few days.
Also having trouble sleeping like him is Ling Yin Li Yuan.
There was an assassin organization under Li Yuan, and its power enveloped the area directly under the jurisdiction of the King of Chu. When Xiong Han came to power, he relied on this team to kill Chunshen Lord Huang Xie.
As for the recent commotion between Luowang and the farmhouse, Li Yuan also learned about it through the forces in the dark. However, the current situation is unclear, and he is paying attention at all times and does not act rashly.
Let me mention here that the Chu State is the most chaotic country in the world today, even worse than the land of Yan and Zhao where there are many rangers.
Because the State of Chu has a vast territory and many domestic lords, the area actually controlled by the country is actually limited. The territories of each lord have different laws, and the vast area has a large number of deep mountains and old forests, as well as southern barbarians. These provide the Jianghu organization with a way to survive.
soil.
The Chu army's deterrent effect on Jianghu organizations is extremely limited. The Nong family, the Yin Yang family, and the Moh family all have large areas of their own, and among them the Nong family is the largest.
Late that night, just when Li Yuan felt tired and sleepy under Concubine Ji's service, a dark figure suddenly knelt down outside the door and said, "Your Majesty Ling Yin, the young master is asking for an audience."
Li Yuan jumped up in excitement, his little eyes rolling around, "Negative Chu? He came to me? Hey, it's really weird."
While he asked his two concubines to dress him, he said to the door: "Let him wait a moment, I will come right away."
"yes."
After a while, Xiong Fuchu, who had sunken eye sockets and a haggard look on his face, saw Li Yuan with a cheerful face.
"Zhe Chu has met Lord Ling Yin, please forgive me for visiting late at night."
"Hey, Master, you are too polite. Yuan can't bear it." Li Yuan said and quickly invited him to his seat.
Xiang Chu sighed deeply, hesitated for a long time, and finally made up his mind and took out a letter from his arms, "A few days ago, I received this letter. I was in panic all day long. Today I finally plucked up the courage to go to Ling Yin.
Your Excellency surrendered here."
The flesh on Li Yuan's fat face trembled, "What do you mean by surrender? Young Master, you made me confused."
"Lord Ling Yin will know the situation after seeing it."
Li Yuan's doubts were basically answered after reading the letter.
Among the four sons of the old Chu king Xiong Yuan, only the one who lived in the worst situation was the one who lived in the worst situation. Xiong Han randomly sealed a piece of land for him and left him to fend for himself.
Ying Zheng was angry with the peasant family because of the Daju Sword. In order not to expose himself, Xiong Qi hoped that Fu Chu could contribute to the Chu State and save the peasant family. In the future, the peasant family would certainly help Fu Chu if they repay their kindness.
The advantages of this matter outweighed the disadvantages for Fu Chu, and logically speaking, he had no reason to refuse. Unfortunately, Fu Chu was a coward and did not dare to accept this hot potato, so he chose to report it.
"Xiong Qi is the censor of the Qin State. Unexpectedly, he secretly controls one hundred thousand disciples of our peasant family in the Chu State. Such ambition is really..." When Xiong Chu saw Li Yuan in deep thought after reading the letter, he knelt down towards him.
, "I was greatly favored by the king, and was rewarded with an inch of land and tiles, and I had no worries about food and clothing. I received the secret letter, but I hid it for several days. I really had no shame to see the king again. I asked Lord Ling Yin to handle this matter."
Li Yuan supported him and said with admiration: "Young Master is loyal. I will definitely inform the king and ask him to get up as soon as possible."
"Thank you so much, Lord Ling Yin. In that case, I will take my leave." After saying that, he bowed deeply and walked away unsteadily.
Li Yuan looked over the letter in his hand several times, waved his hand and called: "Come here, prepare the car, I'm going to see the king."
King Xiong Han of Chu happened to be in no mood to fall asleep. When he heard that Ling Yin had entered the palace late at night, he met him in the bedroom without saying a word.
"Your Majesty, you just came to see me."
"Old cud?"
Li Yuanba handed over the letter from Xiong Qi, "Your Majesty, please read it."
After seeing this, Xiong Han was furious, clapped his hands, and asked seriously: "Huh, the farmer's one hundred thousand disciples are Xiong Qi's people, why don't you believe it!"
Li Yuan knew that his nephew had already believed most of it, so he asked: "Your Majesty, there is insufficient evidence at the moment, so we might as well prepare for the worst first. What should we do if the farmer really has contact with Xiong Qi?"
Xiong Han asked angrily: "How else to deal with rebellion? Send troops to destroy him."
"This farmer's family is a powerful sect among hundreds of families. If we attack them rashly, the world's infamy will fall on the king."
"Then what do you think we should do?"
Li Yuan said "hehe" with a greedy and sinister smile, "Find it out. Farmers are either selling grain or iron tools, which are important military supplies. There are so many people who are jealous of profit. As long as the king opens a little crack, there will be a lot of things down there.
People rushed to bite him.
As the saying goes, there is no storm without fire. If this letter really comes from Xiong Qi, then he will be punished; even if it does not come from Xiong Qi, we can still make a profit."
Xiong Han thought of Xiang Yan, a wealthy man staying at the border, and nodded repeatedly, "It makes sense. You should quickly find out what happened behind the scenes, and you can reveal some information to the clan appropriately."
"clear."
…
Some things cannot withstand investigation, not to mention that the net simply threw the evidence in the faces of all the forces in Chu State.
Within a few days, the King of Chu got some data on the secret transactions between the farmers and the Qin State. The export volume of ironware and grain made him, a great king, salivate three thousand feet down.
"Xiong Qi, one hundred thousand people! You really have a big appetite~"
Xiong Han had already cut Xiong Qi into pieces in his heart, and he did not dare to think about the scene in which hundreds of thousands of people would suddenly attack in the future.
He immediately summoned the civil servants and generals and put all the information in front of them. "I want to destroy the farm family. Do you agree or not?"
Whether it was a big family or a small power, seeing the farmer's self-destructive excuse for stabbing the family, they all signed up enthusiastically and prepared to carve up the farmer's family.
When Xiong Han saw that everyone agreed to send troops, he stood up suddenly and said, "Tell the world what the farmers have done, and ask Xiang Yan to transfer the army and go directly to Daze Mountain to raze the farmers to the ground!"
"Your Majesty, is it over there in Qi——"
"I ordered Long Zhan to garrison troops to guard against Qi."
