When King Wu Wei Gou Chen's coffin was transported back to Gusu from Kuaiji, the remaining local forces of the Yue State organized a rebellion, but it was quickly suppressed by the King of Suzhou's army.
The veteran generals headed by Gong Hu still carried out Gou Chen's orders and suppressed any rebellion mercilessly with extremely cruel methods.
Being gentle is what the new king should do.
All the veterans have to do is continue to be brutal.
They didn't know what would happen to Wu State once Gou Chen left, and they didn't dare to think about it.
Only constant fighting can make them forget their fear of the future.
When Gou Chen was still alive, the generals who were also aging did not need to think about the future, because Gou Chen would give them the future.
But now, Gou Chen is no longer there.
They fell into confusion, and the panic that came with confusion.
"Ju District Night! How dare you drink in the army——"
The roaring worker tiger held his helmet in his hand and suddenly opened the curtain. He saw a gray-haired colleague lying on the side of the coffin of King Wu Wei, crying and drinking, and muttering something in his mouth.
"I, Ju Chu Ye...willing to die for your Majesty!"
The veteran with wide eyes suddenly sat up straight, and then quickly slumped down. The wine in his mouth flowed down, and he murmured to himself. After a while, he staggered to get up again, but his feet slipped several times.
An old dog fell to the ground with a snap.
He lay motionless on the ground for a while, then the sound of sobbing came again, crying like a child.
"Ju Chuye! You are really young..."
Gong Hu, who was scolding with a sullen face, couldn't stop cursing at this point. He gently put down the helmet in his hand, then stepped forward, pressed his hand on the coffin, and said, "Give me... a jug of wine!"
The people guarding the coffin were all palace guards. They looked at the two veterans with expressionless expressions. As long as they didn't shake the coffin or get drunk and cry, they had seen it a lot in the past few days.
No matter how arrogant and good at fighting the old general was in the past, his mentality has collapsed in recent days.
The palace guards didn't understand why before, but after watching it more times and listening to these veterans muttering to themselves, they realized that these veterans, like them, had lost a belief in their hearts, a
support.
The King is not just a King!
No one knows what will happen to Wu State in the future.
But one thing that is certain is that no one thinks that the new king will do better than the king.
Only Wu Wei Wang Gouchen is their king!
The only king!
"Old man Juqu..."
"shut up--"
Ju Quye suddenly turned ferocious, and roared with bared teeth and claws, "I, Ju Quye, served the king at the age of fourteen, holding a sword and a gun..."
Whoosh!
The old general suddenly pulled off his robe, revealing his strong upper body, "I have been working for the king for decades and have never been defeated!"
The thick back was covered with scars. Even the guards in the palace, who were excellent in fighting skills, looked at them at this moment, and all of them had expressions of emotion on their faces.
"I am in the night..."
The voice stopped suddenly, and the old general did not continue speaking, but his eyes became calmer and calmer. However, this calmness revealed a resolute madness.
Ju Chuye did not continue to speak. He just carried the wine bottle and staggered out. As he walked, he drank and sang: "In the past, there were thousands of people...one heart!"
…
That night, when the coffin of King Wu Wei arrived at "Yu'er", the veteran general Ju Quye called his brothers and nephews.
There was a slight smell in the tent.
Ju Qunye was sitting in the middle. At this moment, Ju Qunye, who had woken up from drunkenness, put on a clean plain clothes.
Putting his hands on his thighs, Ju Chuye glanced at his relatives in the tent and said, "After my death, the family business will be succeeded by Ju Chu Xie, and all the gentlemen will assist me with all my heart."
"good."
"good."
With tears in his eyes, the eldest son Gu Chuqie solemnly saluted his father, knelt down in front of Gu Chuye, and sobbed: "Master, why are you doing this?!"
"I am in the night..."
The old general smiled and looked at the dark front, as if he was missing something, "I, Gu Chuye, was once just a young man on the side of Gu Chuze..."
Speaking of this, the old general was very proud: "The young man from the barbarians was promoted by the king, held a sword close to his body, and carried a gun with him in the same car. How many people have been with him through the ages?"
After saying that, Gu Chunye wiped the white hair back with both hands. It is very easy to take care of the broken hair. After a little combing, it is very clean and tidy.
The old general has dense horned dragon tattoos from his cheeks to his ears, along his neck and around his chest and back.
"Gentlemen!"
Ju Quye shouted loudly, "Wu Guo... please try your best to protect us!"
He solemnly clasped his fists and bowed to salute.
The nephews on both sides looked sad when they saw this, but they also returned the courtesy solemnly.
…
"People at that time only knew that the previous king was a powerful force for a lifetime, but they did not know that the previous king started his own business and overcame all obstacles... The country of Wu was humble and barbaric in the southeast. How could there be any outstanding person in the world who traveled to the east of the Yangtze River?"
The veteran Gong Hu was dressed in a linen robe and looked like an ordinary old man chatting about life.
On one side of the coffin of King Wu Wei, there is another coffin.
With a sigh, Gong Hu patted the newly added coffin: "Only by recruiting heroes from within the region can we compete for hegemony in the world!"
He turned around and looked back at the people who were kneeling in obeisance: "The late king has a great mind. A noble man can be a great man, and a lowly man can be a great man."
"Juqu night..."
When talking about this name, Gong Hu couldn't help but sigh, how can anyone in this world have "Gu District" as their surname?
But once King Wu Wei passed by the west of Wuhu and asked the local savages where this place was, a young savage boy was very bold and jumped out to answer that this place is called "Juquze".
As a result, there was one more Gu Chu family in this world.
"Let's set off."
The horn sounded again, and the young man walking holding the coffin was Wang Sunhui, the future king of the Wu Kingdom.
However, I don’t know why, Gong Hu’s mood was extremely complicated. When the late king and Wang Sunhui were as old as they were, they were already heroic and domineering...
In Jiangyin City, there were more and more boats going to and from Suzhou. Because of the national mourning and the example of Mrs. Yinxiang, a large number of wealthy families from the royal family went to Jiangyin City to buy white sand linen.
Inexplicably, the inventory of white sand linen cloth is almost empty. This situation also makes Mei Dan a little stunned. This was not her intention, but it was quite a mistake.
"This is what is called the goodness of goodness, which is good."
After hearing about it, Shang Wuji, who was in charge of the work between the north and the south in Hanyi, had to admit that Li Jie and his wife were indeed a bit magical.
It's so elusive.
"Gentleman, someone from Yanling came to visit."
"Just find a reason and say I'm not here."
"yes."
Shang Wuji chuckled lightly. With the departure of King Wu Wei, the entire Wu Kingdom seemed to have changed little, but... just as Shou Li said: Just like a person drinking water, he knows whether it is warm or cold.
Does Yanling Yunyan's family have any backing in Wangji, Gusu?
But the Yinxiang Shang family is completely different!
"Fortune is ahead and the time is right!"
Shang Wuji was very happy. How could Yanling be used by him unless it completely declined?
Even if a Yunyan clan with all beards and tails enters the system of Jiangyin City, his behavior will only anger the extremely irritable Li Jie.
For Shang Wuji, this kind of thing is not worth the gain.
The only person who will get the benefits is the Yanling Yunyan family, so what benefits does Shang Wuji have? Maybe the little affection he has for his sister will be exhausted.
"Ridiculous."
Shaking his head, Shang Wuji picked up a pen and began to write a document for borrowing local boats in Hanyi. The "big households" on both sides of Hangou now needed a ticket to enter the Wu State system, and Li Jie just happened to be able to provide the ticket.
