Wu State is bordered by Dongyi to the north, Chu Yue to the south, Xu State and Cai State to the east, and Zeng State is connected to his territory in the northwest corner.
The news from Zeng Guo and Citigroup's spies reached the border, passed through several inns along the way, and finally reached Tianwu, the imperial city of Wu State.
Among the hundreds of kingdoms, those with simple names all take the surname Wang as their country name, while those with complex names like Zhuge and Nangong all take their place name as their country name. Because of their different locations, each place also has its own accent.
King Wu received the news and the ministers gathered in the council. Some people thought that border defenses should be strengthened to be wary of Zeng State. Others thought that Zeng State's pursuit of revenge had nothing to do with Wu State. It is better to think about it and take advantage of the fact that the attention of all countries is now attracted to Zeng State.
Can our country, Wu, take advantage of the chaos to gain some benefits, such as tearing a piece of meat from our old enemy, the country of Yue? After talking about this, King Wu and the officials in the palace smiled knowingly.
After the meeting, the King of Wu summoned the prince of Wu State, Wu Yifan, the current prince of Wu State.
In the imperial study room of the Imperial Palace, King Wu was looking at the memorial, when he saw a handsome young man walking in.
The young master is very handsome, with skin as white as snow, smooth brown hair and a stylish figure, eyes with divine starlight, and a brocade robe and jade belt that are majestic.
The son is so handsome, King Wu's name is Wu... He looks very casual, almost like a man.
After all, King Wu is the king of the Kingdom of Wu, the son's biological father, and the only son of King Wu. He has loved him very much since he was a child. Wu Yifan also loves King Wu very much in his heart, and bows to King Wu respectfully: "Father, please call me.
"
When King Wu saw his beloved son coming, he hurriedly greeted him: "Your Majesty, don't be too polite. There are no outsiders here, so there is no need for those red tapes."
Wu Yifan stood up and said, "Father, how can you lose etiquette in the emperor's house?"
"Alas! Then Wang Er, feel free to do as he pleases. Wang Er will sit down first. My father has something important to discuss with you."
Arriving at the desk, Wu Yifan sat on a chair and said, "Wang Er, I came to you this time for the matter of the Zeng State. The Zeng State was besieged by eight countries and the gods descended to earth to exterminate more than 300,000 coalition troops to save the country. You and I have already heard about it.
I said it. But today, news came from spies from out of town. Zeng Wang Zhuge Qingtian took more than 300,000 dead coalition forces who were resurrected by the gods to attack the Citizen State, the person in charge of the siege. In less than seven days, the Citigroup was gone. Wang Er
, look at how our Wu Guodang handles it."
The young master Wu Yifan thought for a while and said, "I think that Wu State has not participated in the siege of Zeng State, so there is no need to worry. However, the situation is tense now, and more troops need to be sent to the border with Zeng State."
King Wu nodded, "Well, yes, I and the ministers also considered this, but in addition, we plan to take advantage of the attention of other countries to gather forces and use the power of thunder to defeat our old rivals.
Guolai gave us a hard blow. The Yue State border is not connected to Zeng State, so they must have been less prepared and they must have been caught off guard by us."
King Wu smashed the table with his fist and waved his hand, "When the time comes, I will definitely catch those bitches from the Yue Kingdom off guard. Maybe I can take this opportunity to kill the turtle grandson Goudao."
The former king of Wu was named Wu Fucha, and the previous king of Yue was named Gou Jian, because the king of Yue was once captured by the king of Wu, and later he turned defeat into victory by lying on fuel and tasting gall. This is the name of the Yue people for the king of Yue. The people of Wu directly called Yue King Gou Jian the Ninja Turtle, turtle.
It is the scientific title of Turtle Sun. The current King of Yue is the grandson of Gou Jian, so it is very reasonable to call him Turtle Sun.
Wu Yifan rubbed his head with a headache. The events in his great-grandfather’s life had such a profound impact that the people of Wu and Yue had no contact with each other for a long time. Now it was a national matter, not a time for emotion. He could only pour a cup of tea for the King of Wu and put forward his proposal.
Opinion: "Father, my sons think that we are adjacent to the Chu State, and the Chu State participated in the siege of the Zeng State. We should not take advantage of the Zeng State to attack the Chu State at this time. When the time comes, we can take advantage of the chaos to intervene and grab a piece of meat."
The King of Wu thought that his son was still too young, "My son is still young. Can you think of the Yue people? If we attack the Chu State, what if the Yue people stab us in the back? So we say we should attack the Yue State first, and it will be easier for us."
He stabbed him with a knife. As for the territory of the Chu State, the remaining troops will be able to rob it when the time comes, but they cannot be robbed and brought down."
Wu Yifan asked back, "Father, since you have said it and people in Yue can think of it, do you think that Yue has no awareness of precautions at all?"
King Wu also asked in return: "My lord, what's wrong with the Yue State taking precautions? Anyway, we all have a grudge, so it's over. If we don't take precautions, we'll take the opportunity to kill him. We'll fight first, and we won't worry about it until we fail."
Wu Yifan smiled bitterly, and he learned something today. National war is such a child's play. It is no different from fighting with gangsters. Hundreds of countries on the mainland have been multiplying for thousands of years. The weak and brainless have long since perished. Those who survive are both
Tough and resourceful, every country is a rogue country with brains.
"Wang'er, apart from that, I have one more thing to come to you for."
"Father, please tell me."
King Wu asked: "You should know about me, the richest man in the country of Wu, the Luo family, a state merchant."
Wu Yifan nodded: "How could I not know that the head of the Luo family, Luo Lita, is a follower of your father? When our country of Wu was in danger from the country of Yue, he turned the tide, built up the economy, and provided material food and salary for our army of Wu country.
, so as to avoid the disaster of almost destroying our country Wu."
King Wu continued: "The reason why I came to you this time is for the Luo family. We are going to fight again. The Luo family should donate some money. You go to Taibo City and talk to the head of the Luo family, Luolita, about the donation.
Also, Luo Lita's only son Luo Tianyi is also thirteen years old this year. See him and establish a good relationship with him, cultivate a relationship with him, and wait until he is a few years older to find an opportunity to take him as his subordinate."
Wu Yifan nodded to show that he knew, and King Wu sighed. "It's a pity that the Luo family gave birth to a daughter. Otherwise, things would have been much simpler."
Wu Yifan came out of the palace and met his friend again, the hostage left by Cai Guo in Wu State. After saying goodbye, he rushed to Taibo City with his entourage.
Taibo City is an important city in the Kingdom of Wu, and the most prosperous city besides the imperial city of Tianwu City, because the Luo family, the richest man in the Kingdom of Wu, lives here.
When they arrived in Taibo City, the young master Wu Yifan did not visit the Luo Mansion first. Instead, he took the horse and found an inn first. After asking his entourage to inquire, he learned about the restaurant opened by Master Luo. Hearing that the young master of the Luo family often came here to tell stories, he
I wanted to see first what kind of person this 13-year-old boy was.
After shooing away his entourage, he went to the restaurant alone. When he arrived in front of the restaurant, he looked up and saw the restaurant's gold powder sign.
"Jade Flower House, the jade flowers fly in the middle of the night, and the green waves dance next year. It's a good name." Wu Yifan saw the name of the restaurant and couldn't help but tell where it came from.
The waiter standing at the door heard Wu Yifan's poem and stepped forward and said: "My guest, I didn't expect you to know the origin of the name of my restaurant. Yes, it is the jade flower flying in the middle of the night in "Hetian Guobo Xisnow",
Cui Lang Wu next year. My young master named this restaurant, but no one can tell its origin. You are the first one, and your knowledge is really profound."
Wu Yifan smiled and was invited into the restaurant by the waiter. The hall was already full, so he went to the second floor. He found a seat, ordered a bottle of good wine, and ordered a few dishes. He was careful and found that there were two people on his left and right.
The guests at the table seemed a little different.
There was only one customer at the table on the left, but he was dressed in weird clothes, and it was hard to tell which country he was from. He also wore a hood in the restaurant, had blond hair and blue eyes, and looked very strange. The table on the right was occupied by two swordsmen, who looked like
Very human too.
He put away his mind and looked at the performance stage downstairs, where a handsome young man wearing a blue robe with gold patterns was holding a gavel in one hand and a folding fan in the other, shaking the fan back and forth like a little adult.
"Snapped!"
The tree fell and the whole hall was silent. Mr. Luo also said: "Tell me about a myth. There is such a family, this couple..."
"Okay!" After the story was told, the whole room cheered. Wu Yifan called the waiter over and gave him a silver coin. He also learned some things about Master Luo. He also learned about his preferences. Master Luo's stories were never repeated every day.
A new story. And he will leave after telling it, and he himself likes to listen to stories the most. If you want to ask him to do something, it is better to have a new story than gold.
There is an ear across the table. Klaus's clone, who has recently become a fan of Master Luo, is also very interested in Master Luo.
After Master Luo finished telling the story, he took a sip of tea and left the stage. The stage was reserved for the singers and dancers in the restaurant. As new performers came on stage, the atmosphere in the restaurant changed.
Master Luo left, and several tables of diners on the second floor also got up and left.
Master Luo was walking on the street when a voice came from behind him.
"Please wait! ×2"
Master Luo turned around and found Klaus staring at Wu Yifan. He asked, "You called me?"
"Yes!×2"
Wu Yifan handed over to Klaus: "Brother, you also have trouble with Mr. Luo."
Klaus felt funny, "Same."
"In this case, brother, if you can come back another day, please leave it to me today."
"Sorry, I don't have the habit of being humble."
Luo Tianyi, the person involved, scratched his little head and looked at the two uncles in front of him, because he was arguing. He was a little confused, what on earth were these two uncles doing? Since he couldn't figure it out, he asked directly
: "Two uncles, what do you two want from me?"
"Uncle! Poof!" Vomiting blood × 2.
Wu Yifan felt a little distressed, "Master Luo, you are only 18 this year, do you look that old?"
Klaus also had a dark look on his face: "I'm only over 20."
Master Luo touched his lower lip with the index finger of his right hand. "Oh, he is older than me anyway."
The two of them have black hair, and they are wrong to compare their age with a young lady, but they are not worthy of being called uncle.
Young Master Luo, who was quick-witted, noticed the changes in the expressions of the two men in front of him because of his address. He chuckled: "That's because I called him wrong. This is the handsome brother, and this is the golden retriever uncle."
Wu Yifan had a smile on his face, and Klaus had a black line on his forehead.
"Then handsome brother, uncle golden retriever, what are you two looking for me for?"
Wu Yifan smiled warmly: "I want to tell you a story."
Klaus, who had a black line next to him, echoed, "Me too."
Li Er is Young Master Luo's literature teacher. He once told Young Master Luo that being courteous for nothing is a traitor or a thief. Li Er also told him that if you don't understand, just ask.
Young Master Luo, who has a straightforward personality, asked: "Handsome brother, Uncle Golden Retriever, do you have something to do with me? You can't come here for no reason and want to tell me a story. There must be something."
