817 The power of the Wu State, and the fall of the Han State
There are two seals of the King of Wu, one is the Ming Seal of the King of Wu, and the other is the Great Power.
The great power of the Wu State has been the benchmark for all weight units since the founding of the entire Wu State.
The kings of Wu in the past dynasties had to grasp the "power" and know what the weights and measures of the country they controlled were like. In this way, the officials and vassals would not be able to deceive the king of a country when they submitted tribute.
It's just that now, Wu's "power" has basically no effect in Han.
Because the Han Dynasty had its own independent set of weights and measures.
It can be said that the power of Wu State was completely ignored in Han State and no one cared about it.
The most convincing authority of the King of Wu is the Mingxi of the King of Wu that Ji Lei has now produced.
Even though he had seen it many times, and even though he was the one who presided over the carving, when he saw the King of Wu's Mingxi again, Lao Yin's eyes still shrank slightly.
In order to avenge his family, he chose to follow Gou Chen. In the beginning, he was indeed full of selfishness.
However, in the process of making achievements, the emperor and his ministers did not forget each other. He is still alive now, instead of following Gou Chen to the underworld. It was Gou Chen who finally relented before he died.
"Your virtue is not worthy of the throne."
Ziqi took the King of Wu's seal with both hands and placed it in front of the case. He sat cross-legged and sighed at Ji Hui, "How lucky you are. If it weren't for the magnanimity of the Duke of Han Dynasty, how could the king of another country spare your life?"
"Afraid."
Fold your hands and worship.
After Ji Lei made a grand salute, he said loudly: "Thank you, old master, for your care."
"I am not protecting you, I am not overly praising the Duke of Han, I truly speak from the bottom of my heart. Among all the princes in the world, only the Duke of Han has the greatest weapons and the capacity to accommodate others."
This comment, even if Li Jie is not in the top position, Lao Yin Biziqi still thinks so.
If I have to find something wrong with her, it's just that she is too lustful and a little crazy for the sake of beauty.
But if you count all the princes in the world, including the Emperor of Zhou, and even the chiefs of various barbarian tribes, if you treat them as your subordinates, you can live a happy life and be successful. It is really better to follow Li Jie.
"Old Master, so far today, someone..."
Ji Hui hesitated to speak, but he was not completely reassured. He was no longer worried about Li Jie killing him.
He was worried that Li Jie's men wanted to kill him. At the same time, he was even more worried that Li Jie's men wanted him to go to Gusu City, and then borrow the Wu Gou from Gusu to kill him, the last king of Wu.
Therefore, Ji Lei is very scared now. He really wants to see Li Jie and receive his blessing.
With the general trend of the world, there are not many forces left that can truly threaten the Han Kingdom.
While in Soochow, Ji Lei checked the files and found that the current strategic situation between Han and Qi was exactly what his grandfather longed for.
If the State of Wu captures Jisi and can successfully mobilize its army to the north, then the State of Qi can capture it.
But now, the internal strife in Qi is endless. After the death of the new king, the country has not had a good year, and it may even ruin the spring plowing.
What is even more astonishing is that the Han army did not attack the Qi State and let Qi suffer internal strife. Instead, it pushed across the Central Plains, directly defeated the Song State, and even destroyed the Wei State.
By the spring of the next day, unless the new king of Qi is very powerful and has extraordinary means, he will be dead.
How could a monarch who had compromised his powerful ministers and was a scattered agent mobilize the whole country to fight against the Han army?
Two hundred and thirty thousand Han troops, two hundred and thirty thousand, right between Ji and Si!
"Don't worry about it."
Knowing Ji Lei's anxiety, Lao Yin stood up and said, "My granddaughter is the daughter of Lord Shang. You can choose one of them to be your wife."
"good!"
Hearing this promise, Ji Lei saluted again, put his forehead on the back of his hand, and said loudly, "Thank you, old master, for your protection!"
This time, I really felt protected.
How can it be so easy to protect the last king?
His grandfather destroyed countless countries. Even if the old monster Gou Chen did not want to kill those last kings, he still had ministers and generals under his command who wanted to embezzle the land, wealth, and population of these last kings, and then force these last kings to
The Lord took his slaves and property with him and wandered to another country.
He doesn't want to wander. There is no country in the world that he likes.
Ji Lei doesn’t think any of Linzi, Luojing, Jiangcheng, Xianyang, and Yingdu can compare with Gusu City, let alone Huaizhong City!
It is better to die in luxury and waste than to waste time outside and wait for death.
"Write the king's order, take it from Gusu and make it fresh."
"good!"
Ji Hui agreed unconditionally to Ziqi's suggestion.
It’s not that he doesn’t understand the need to negotiate conditions, but precisely because he understands, he chooses to be unconditional.
He was not for Zi Qi, nor for Shang Wuji, Liu Ba, nor for Gong Shuqin, Yun Zhenlu and the like. He was for Li Jie.
Don't talk about conditions, just survive.
Since Li Jie is tolerant, he just wants to survive, just survive!
In the hall, those who felt nervous were not only the last King of Wu, Ji Yi, but also the first and last King of Wu, Chang Shijie, who actually handled the matter.
Chang Jie was so nervous that he was sweating on his forehead. He wanted to wipe the sweat beads off his forehead, but he didn't dare.
Wu Wang Jiyi could not be the only one who was in awe of Ziqi. When he was a boy, he knew how powerful Ziqi was.
An important minister of the Wu Kingdom who is desperate for money?
A doctor Wu Guoqing who only knows how to play politics?
If only it were that simple, that would be great.
Carefully recalling the fights among the Wuhu officials, and even the divisions within Wujia, why did such loyal minions as Ju Chu choose to betray?
If we look back in time, the seeds of everything had been planted long before the death of King Wu Wei.
Miyue is just the last piece of fat.
What followed was nothing more than an ordinary hungry dog fighting for food.
After settling down King Wu Ji and his entourage, Lao Yin called for Doctor Jia and said bluntly: "I would like to send an envoy to Gusu to persuade Taishu Mao to surrender. You can be the envoy."
When Dr. Jia heard this suggestion, the first thing he thought of was that the old bastard wanted to have sex with him. After being frightened, he suddenly realized that the king was already here, and many things had already been arranged.
Furthermore, the local leader in Tangyi is their Jia family.
Even if the old bastard didn't do anything, Jia naturally takes the credit because the territory is his.
There is no reason to cause trouble on his territory.
After thinking about it, everyone in the Jia family understood that this was a credit and that they were a very suitable role.
"Old Master, will Taishu Mao get so angry that he kills Dr. Jia?"
"Won't."
Ziqi didn't explain too much. After all, Doctor Jia's trip would be carried out with great fanfare. All the Wu cities in the south of the Yangtze River along the way would know that their king had "defected" to the north of the Yangtze River.
The only one left in Gusu City was Tai Shumao, not any great king.
As long as the momentum is huge, it is not just momentum, but the general trend!
