"Let the son of the lonely king be called Xiang Sheng!"
Xiang Ji had high hopes for this son.
All the ministers can see this.
Sheng represents the steaming sun, hope and prosperity.
When Xiang Ji named his eldest son, the direction of the wind changed again.
Originally, there were some Chen Gong clans who believed that the newly arrived Cao Ziran would become a powerful opponent of Cai Wenji.
However, just by looking at this name, you can know that Xiang Ji has determined his heir.
This also made Cai Yong's old body stand taller and taller.
Just kidding, my daughter is the queen, and my grandson is the future king of Chu, or even the emperor.
Cai Yong, who originally criticized Xiang Ji's background, completely forgot all his previous unhappiness.
You know, when Xiang Ji forcefully married Cai Wenji and asked him to move with his family, this made the old man dissatisfied for a long time.
"Prime Minister, in the past year since the lonely king has been away, has anything major happened in the country?"
After Cao Ziran was settled, Xiang Ji enjoyed the desolate imperial life for a few days and came to the court again.
After being away for so long, I don’t know what’s going on in China.
Although the war only burned to the north of Xuzhou, the damage to people's livelihood was probably not small.
Although Xiang Ji is too lazy to deal with political affairs, he is the king after all. Now that the world has not been unified, and even the Chu State is not completely stable, how can Xiang Ji live a life like a king who will not go to court early from now on.
"Overlord, nothing major happened in the country.
Even the cities and villages that were destroyed and burned by Liu Bei and others were restored and rebuilt."
When Xiang Ji heard this, he couldn't help but laugh and cry.
I was originally afraid that Lu Su wanted to name Cao Cao, but when he thought that he had just announced that he would make Cao Ziran his concubine, he didn't dare to say it anyway.
After all, Cao Cao is now an ally and the father-in-law of his own King Chu.
How do you say this? Isn’t it okay to arrange for my father-in-law in front of his uncle?
Anyway, Lu Su didn't have the courage.
Over here, when Xiang Ji heard Lu Su say that nothing big happened, he immediately relaxed.
It's comfortable to have this group of internal affairs masters. As long as I firmly control the general power, what kind of trouble can they cause? Don't you just have to work obediently?
If this is a kingdom that has been passed down for generations, then the ministers who control the internal affairs may still pose some threats to the king's dominance, but what about now? Today's Chu Kingdom was conquered by Xiang Ji single-handedly.
Not an exaggeration.
For these civil servants, Xiang Ji's purpose is to leave all matters big and small to you, but if I am not satisfied, then I am afraid that your whole family will also be dissatisfied with you.
But just when Xiang Ji relaxed, Pei Yuanshao, who had always been invisible, stood up.
"Overlord! In the nearly one year since you left, I have discovered a total of twenty-eight clans that are rebellious or have evil intentions.
Among them, nine clans followed Liu Bei when the city of Xiapi was destroyed, and now they have all been wiped out."
As Pei Yuanshao walked out, the originally peaceful main hall fell into silence again, and even began to look cold.
Twenty-eight families! Nine families were exterminated, so that means there are still 19 families?
How many clans are there in the entire Chu State? There is a large-scale massacre of clans in Jiangdong. Is it going to be the same here in Xuzhou?
After hearing what Pei Yuanshao said, all the ministers began to feel cold in their hands and feet.
You know, they are also a clan!
Just when the first minister was feeling anxious, Xiang Ji spoke.
Humph, clan? You are causing trouble with me over there in Jiangdong, and now you want to cause trouble here in Xuzhou?
Liu Bei's previous incident had already sounded the alarm to Xiang Yu.
I'm afraid that if one day Yuan Shao's army really goes south, most of these bullshit clans will join him again, right?
That's the case.
"Send the order! Clean up these nineteen clans and exterminate them all. If there are any who are protecting them, they will be killed together!
Pei Yuanshao, this matter will be left to you, Canglongqi will be temporarily assigned to your command, and Pengcheng guard Mi Fang will fully cooperate."
When Xiang Ji finished speaking, all the clan members in the hall were stunned.
Although, there are no such people in these nineteen homes.
But after all, they are all clans!
It is inevitable that the rabbit will die and the fox will be sad.
"You don't have to be like this. King Gu said that as long as you are loyal to Chu State and loyal to King Gu, then King Gu will return you wealth and glory."
Seeing that some of the ministers were about to faint from fright, Xiang Ji quickly spoke out to comfort them.
Damn it, now is a time when everything is waiting for something to be done, so don't give me any more choices.
You must know that the imperial examination that Xiang Ji is thinking about is too early for the current state of Chu.
At the very least, Xiang Ji would not consider issuing an imperial examination system until Hebei was completely occupied.
Xiang Ji's first court meeting after returning to Chu State ended in a depressed state among the officials.
Xiang Ji has no feeling about this. You are depressed and frightened, so what? Now that you have boarded my ship of Chu, it will not be so easy to get off.
Likewise, Pei Yuanshao felt nothing.
Since becoming the spy leader, Pei Yuanshao has become increasingly gloomy.
Now, only Jia Xu and Xiang Ji have no feelings for him at all. Everyone else, even Tai Shici and others, will feel chills down their spines after seeing Pei Yuanshao.
You know, there is a saying among secret agents.
If the Overlord wants to know who ate what that night, how much they ate, and even the color of their underwear, then in the early morning of the next day, all the information the Overlord wants to know will be presented to him.
Although this statement is a bit exaggerated, the deterrent effect it has on the ministers is no joke.
At the very least, no one wants to expose their privacy to others.
What if it was just the color of my underwear, but what if it was my new concubine? What if someone knew how many times and how hard I moved when I was exercising with my concubine at night?
Just thinking about it makes me feel cold.
"Prime Minister, look at Overlord...
How are we going to handle ourselves?”
After getting down from the court, he walked quickly to Lu Su.
After all, the three largest clans in Xuzhou are the Lu family, the Bu family and the Zhang family.
Now that Xiang Ji is aggressively wiping out the clans, I am afraid it will have the greatest impact on the three families.
Nowadays, these three families can be said to be the clan leaders of Chu State.
Xiang Ji had to deal with the clan, so he had to be slow and nervous.
"Ignore it, go back and tell your family, and don't have anything to do with them.
This time, the Overlord was really angry.
As you can see from Jiangdong, we are afraid that even Xuzhou will become a river of blood."
Lu Su naturally knew everything about Xiang Ji's thoughts.
I am afraid that I am planning to take this opportunity to completely wipe out these clans to eliminate all hidden dangers.
