"Your Majesty, the theory of being one with God is an illusion and must not be believed!"
Zhu Ying looked at the thoughtful Chun Shenjun and shouted loudly.
"Your Majesty is obviously lying on the bed and unable to get up, but today he is able to hold a court meeting and personally announce the sacrificial rituals. He is indeed a man of true talent and learning!"
Chun Shenjun murmured: "Since you can extend your life for the king, you can also extend my life for me!"
Zhu Yingdao: "That being said, Mr. Qin has already formed an alliance with Li Yuan. How can he help you extend your life? Let alone grant him the position of God of Punishment!"
"No, it's not a bad thing for us!"
Chun Shenjun's eyes flashed with strange light: "The sacrifice must be what this person wants. If Li Yuan can bribe him, so can we!"
"Then you have to get through this."
Zhu Yingdao: "If your Majesty refuses to become the God of Punishment, your Majesty will definitely hate your Majesty and may there be a big disaster!"
The current king of Chu can ascend to the throne because of Chun Shen Jun. Therefore, Chun Shen Jun has held great power in Chu State for more than 20 years.
Under normal circumstances, the King of Chu would not do anything to Lord Chun Shen even if he favored the Li Yuan brothers and sisters. However, King Chu's deadline is approaching, and it is difficult to say anything in order to survive.
After all, he is a king, and if he really wants to risk everything, Lord Chun Shen will also suffer heavy losses.
"It doesn't matter! I've been thinking about it these past few days and already have a plan to deal with it!"
The corners of Chun Shenjun's lips raised in an arc, and he said slowly and calmly: "What the king wants is just a minister who is willing to share the risk of becoming a god with him. I am not the only one who can assume the position of God of Punishment."
Zhu Yingqi said: "But among our great Chu people, who else can have the prestige of a king?"
Chun Shenjun said: "Let me ask you, who was the earliest punishment god?"
Zhu Ying replied: "Xingtian."
The God of Punishment competed with the Emperor of Heaven, and the Emperor cut off his head and buried him on the mountain of Changyang. The God of Punishment used his breasts as his eyes, his navel as his mouth, and danced with his limbs.
A household name.
Chun Shenjun asked again: "If I, the great Chu, want to find someone who can match this God of Punishment, who is the most qualified?"
"Xiang Yan? Your Majesty, you must not do this!"
Zhu Ying was startled, his pupils shrank, and he stood up suddenly: "The Xiang family has always been aloof from our great Chu, and did not participate in the court disputes. Now they are running Jiangdong, how can they be involved?"
Xiang Yan and Li Mu are different again.
Li Mu was often interfered by King Zhao, and had to fight wits and courage with Guo Kailecheng and others, and was involved in court disputes. Xiang Yan had always remained neutral and did not participate in any faction.
Even the capital of the Chu State was occupied by the Qin State, so it had to have capable generals to protect the country and guard against the invasion of the powerful Qin. Not to mention that there were still vassal states that needed to be suppressed, so everyone tacitly agreed not to involve the Xiang family.
Zhu Ying never expected that Lord Chun Shen would now be plotting against Xiang Yan.
"As a minister of Chu, I should help the king solve his problems. Do you think if I refuse, who will the king's next target be?"
But Chun Shenjun looked at Zhu Ying and asked him a question that made him speechless.
Yes, if Lord Chun Shen refuses, King Chu will definitely think of Xiang Yan.
Zhu Ying thought about it, but still couldn't accept it: "Even so, we can't destroy the city wall!"
"You overestimate the role of generals. The State of Zhao re-appointed Li Mu and gave all the military power of the 200,000-strong army to this Lord Wu'an. What's the result? Without my help with food and grass, Zhao's army would now be fighting for food with the Huns.
, starved to death outside the Great Wall."
Chun Shenjun shook his head, his voice full of disdain.
If, as in history, Li Mu was a temporary change of generals and was killed by the King of Zhao, leading to the demise of the Zhao State, then other countries would naturally be wary, and the Chu State would value Xiang Yan more and trust him.
But now Li Mu's defeat is a real defeat.
The State of Zhao just couldn't defeat the State of Qin. No matter whether it was led by other generals or Lord Wu'an Li Mu, the result remained the same.
In this way, a promising king will work hard to become stronger, unite other countries, and attack Qin to avoid following in the footsteps of Zhao;
A king who does nothing will be a tortoise, muddling along, fearing the attack of the powerful Qin, and even neglecting his own strong generals because of Li Mu's failure.
Chu is undoubtedly the latter.
So in Chun Shenjun's opinion, Xiang Yan is just like that.
Seeing his expression, Zhu Ying knew that the king's stubbornness had occurred again, so he stopped trying to persuade him, but there was a ruthless look in his eyes.
The residence of the Xiang family is directly across from Mr. Qin.
If you can't write well, then use force!
…
…
"Sir, Li Yuan would like to see you."
"Let him in."
Gu Cheng opened his eyes, and the ten volumes of heavenly books surrounding him disappeared, and he saw Li Yuan hurriedly entering the courtyard. His first words were: "Jun Chun Shen really involved Xiang Yan and recommended him to be the God of Punishment. King
The Lord is greatly moved!"
"Is it?"
Gu Cheng showed no surprise. Seeing his calm look, Li Yuan became furious: "The Xiang family is not easy to mess with. You will regret it if you are so trusting!"
Tian Yan on the side smiled and said: "There is no turning back when the bow is fired. Uncle Guo is afraid now. Is it too late?"
If it were normal, Li Yuan would have been furious, but he had completely boarded the boat and could no longer be tough. There was even a hint of pleading in his tone: "Master, I am by no means alarmist. Xiang Yan has returned to Shouyang from Jiangdong.
,Their counterattack will come soon!"
"The soldiers are expensive and quick, but I was not disappointed."
Gu Cheng nodded and looked outside the courtyard with a smile.
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, there was an earth-shattering sound of iron hoofbeats outside.
"General, when you return home, avoid all idle people!"
A roaring cavalry galloped over, only eight hundred in number, soaring into the sky with majesty like a thousand troops.
When the young general at the head arrived in front of the mansion, he immediately raised the spear in his hand and shouted wildly: "Surround those Qin people who are deceiving everyone with their monstrous words!"
"No! It's Xiang Liang, Xiang Yan's second son. He came back so quickly!"
Li Yuan stood up suddenly.
"sit."
Gu Cheng waved his hand and Tian Yan cooked the tea with graceful movements. The long and straight tea leaves swirled in the water, and soon they took on a yellow-green color like jade.
At this time, outside the yard and in front of the house, there were soldiers from the Tenglong Legion everywhere. They quickly surrounded and took the entire street under their control, guarding every offensive and defensive point.
Even on the walls of the mansion, soldiers holding long swords appeared. They were looking down from a high position and had a panoramic view of everything going on in the mansion.
Finally, a large flag with the word "xiang" fluttering in the wind quickly rose and fluttered at the main entrance of the mansion.
Xiang Liang sat upright on his horse, his spear raised high, piercing the sky.
As soon as he drops his spear, these elite soldiers who look like wolves and tigers will rush into the house.
"This tea is called Tiangong Yunwu Cui, and it is produced in Shushan. Even in our country, Daqin, there are not many."
However, there were two worlds inside and outside the courtyard. The servants brought from Da Qin all went their own way without any panic. Tian Yan served the tea. Gu Cheng smelled the long and fragrant aroma, took a sip and praised: "Good."
With tea in hand, one person can find tranquility, two people can have fun, and three people can have a finished product."
