I tried my best to help Zulong, and finally got my wife

The three of them knelt in front of Chu Wanghan, their eyes were reddish, looking at Chu Wanghan who was lying on the bed, breathing in more air and exhaling less, at this moment, their hearts were extremely contradictory.

Although the king of Chu had no ambitions and often made troubles for them, generally speaking, he was the king in their hearts. In the past few years, the two sides have gotten along quite happily.

I don't know if the new Chu king who came back to power after the death of the Chu king is still so easy to get along with?

"Your Majesty, take care of your health, and the ministers will do their best to protect the country of Chu."

"Your Majesty, you must do your best."

Chu Wanghan rolled his eyes weakly, raised his hand slightly, pointed to the three important ministers kneeling below, and said: "My loves, you have worked hard."

"Sir, please retire!"

Zhang He and others, who had already prepared their itinerary, finally received the official letter of credence from King Chu Han.

However, Zhang He did not leave immediately after receiving the letter of credence, but went to the mansion of Lord Jiujiang (Xiong You).

"Envoy Zhang, you, you... why are you coming to my house?"

The moment Jiujiang Jun saw Zhang He, he was ready to die. As we all know, the two people Chu Wanghan fears the most, one is the negative, and the other is his own brother.

Even if they were enfeoffed, they would not be allowed to enfeoff the land, but they would stay in Shouchun, the capital city. It is a good name, and they are reluctant to bear their two younger brothers. Have the heart of treason.

After all, Chu Wanghan's lineage has always been debated. Some ill-intentioned rebels said that his eldest brother is Huang Xie's son, because his mother's queen was once Huang Xie's woman.

However, those who said these absurd words were all people who wanted to kill Huang Xie, a powerful official, but since Huang Xie was killed by his uncle, this rumor has been suppressed by his uncle and his mother. I also don't want to ruin the reputation of Chu State.

It's just that this rumor reappeared recently. The king used hidden guards to suppress it, but the voice is still circulating.

Moreover, this rumor has something to do with him, and this is what he is most afraid of.

Rumors said that he, Xiong You, was the eldest son of King Chu Kaolie, the orthodox Xiong family of Chu, but Xiong Han was not, Xiong Han was Huang Xie's treacherous bastard.

But the king did not express anything. He begged to see the king several times, but the king refused. This made him very terrified during this period, so that he couldn't eat, couldn't sleep well, and lived in fear all the time. If this continues, he will go crazy.

But at this time, Zhang He, the envoy of the Qin State, came to visit him. Isn't this making things worse!

Your uncle's Zhang He, what on earth are you doing here? I didn't invite you!

Zhang He was wearing a black robe, with a bright smile on his cheeks, and Xu Chu, who was following behind, was holding a gift in his hand.

Today, he, Zhang He, came to be disgusted... to give Xiong You a gift!

"The foreign envoy, Zhang He, has met Mr. Jiujiang."

"Zhang He, are you going to be a sack? Get out of here, get out!"

"Mr. Jiujiang, you are here. Now that you drive me out, you will only ruin your reputation and have no other benefits. For your eldest brother, King Chu, you will only be more suspicious of your disobedience..."

"Zhang He...you are presumptuous!"

"Jiujiang-jun, don't be angry, look, I brought you something good."

"Xu Chu..."

Xu Chu stepped forward and put down the gift.

Zhang He stepped forward and said with a smile: "This is the best fine wine in Qin State. It is worth thousands of gold, and there is no market for it."

"But don't worry, what I dedicate to the king must be better than yours. You are the king's brother, and the king won't mind."

Then, Zhang He pointed to a can of West Lake Longjing and said: "This is the freshest leaf that has just germinated this year on a thousand-year-old tree. Don't underestimate it, Mr. Jiujiang. It is not easy to make this tea. It uses 72 A Baiyue beautiful girl picked it with their lips, and the artisan spent ninety-nine and eighty-one hours frying and processing it, and it became what it is now."

"The tea leaves on this thousand-year-old tree produced only five such jars this year. The first jar was given to King Qin of Daqin, the second jar was given to my future father-in-law, the third jar was given to King Chu, and the fourth jar is it gone."

"There is one jar left, and I am going back to Xianyang to entertain the most distinguished guests."

After Zhang He finished speaking, he sighed, Chu State got the second out of the five cans of tea...

Mr. Jiujiang's eyes widened. It's just a can of tea, but you have said so many things?

This tea is so precious, he was able to get such a pot of tea.

According to Zhang He's words, this tea is really worth a thousand gold.

Because there are only five cans, and all of them were given away, isn't it just a price but no market?

"A good man will do his best to send people to the west. There are tea leaves here, so we can't live without tea sets. As the saying goes, people rely on clothes and horses rely on beautiful clothes. Tea also needs good-looking things to hold it..."

"This is the luminous cup I got from the grassland nobles. I had a good chat with Mr. Jiujiang today, so I will give it to you."

Zhang He took out the sparkling glass, and Mr. Jiujiang opened his mouth, "Damn it, this is really a luminous glass!"

It is rumored that the luminous cup is made of transparent white jade. During King Mu of Zhou, it was presented to the Zhou royal family by the Hu tribe in the west.

Do you want to give it to him now?

Mr. Jiujiang has no hobbies, but likes to collect these extravagant things.

This time, there was really no way to refuse.

Zhang He asked someone to bring hot water locally, and made a cup of tea for Jiujiang Jun who was already crying. The tea was matched with a transparent luminous cup, which really brightened Jiujiang Jun Xiongyou's dog eyes.

"Wooooow, how can you make tea with such a baby, this is a luminous cup..."

Zhang He: "..."

Zhang He bid farewell to Lord Jiujiang after delivering the gifts, and left the mansion of Lord Jiujiang Xiong You. Others were already waiting near the city gate.

Li Si didn't understand why, so he asked: "Zhang Shangqing, we have already negotiated with the state of Chu, we won't go to war for the time being, why are we in such a hurry, the withdrawal of troops will not be possible in a short while, you are running to die and we are waiting! "

While running, Zhang He said, "Before I left, I sent Xiong You precious treasures. These treasures are priceless, even King Qin doesn't have them, let alone King Chu Han, who heard the news... "

Li Si's eyebrows twitched. It really is Zhang Shangqing's style. He has already run away, and he still doesn't let others live in peace. Aren't you disgusting Chu Wanghan?

Sending Xiong You is such a treasure, but not giving it to King Chu Han. What does it mean? Chu Wang Han will probably be pissed off, and at the same time hate this younger brother.

Zhang He continued to laugh and said: "cough cough cough... Wei Liaozi has started to spread rumors everywhere in the city, Jiujiang Lord Xiong You is the true blood of King Chu Kaolie, and Chu King Han is the former Chunshen Lord Huang Xie The bloodline of King Chu should be inherited by the Lord of Jiujiang, Xiong You... No matter how bad it is, the son can inherit it, and Xiong Han cannot be allowed to insult the noble lineage of the Mi family."

The corner of Li Si's mouth twitched, so insidious, such a ruthless plan to divorce!

Chapter 269 Wei Zhuang: I am on a thief ship, going farther and farther

Chu Wanghan may be concerned about his mother Li Yan, but he would not kill Xiong You directly, but imprison him.

But Xiong You is different. He has lived in the shadow of King Chu Han since he was a child.

Li Si suddenly remembered that Zhang He had spared no effort to get Li Yuan to lead his troops to Jiangdong, and now that he was cooperating with this alienation scheme, Li Si felt that Zhang He was inhumane even more.

Zhang He said with a smile: "I sent five hundred black armor troops to Wuyue to make trouble, and I have already killed the five thousand Xuanwu troops of the Sun family. Unified more than a dozen tribes."

Li Si asked: "So, you let the King of Chu seize power and drive a wedge between King Han of Chu and Sun Cheng?"

"That's right, otherwise the king of Chu sent a large army, how could Yan Lingji make trouble in the rear of Chu country?"

Li Si raised his thumbs up: "You are a nesting doll. One ring is another ring, and the rings are all estrangements. This time, the Sun Cheng family was taken over by the King of Chu. They must hate the King of Chu in their hearts. Yuan leads the troops to Jiangdong, if the strong dragon does not overwhelm the snakes, they will definitely be defeated, even if Xiang Yan leads the troops there, without the assistance of Sun Cheng and his family, the result will be the same..."

Zhang He said with a smile: "Li Yuan was defeated, and the two brothers Xiong Han and Xiong You turned against each other. If Li Chu can escape, the Sun Cheng family will definitely rebel and support the young master Cheng Chu as the king of Jiangdong Chu."

Li Si said with a smile: "But the most important part of Shangqing's strategy lies in Xiong You. Once Xiong You is persuaded, King Han of Chu will be able to control Lu Chu, and the Sun and Cheng families will not dare to rebel."

"There are capable people in Chu State, who may turn the tide and solve Shangqing's plan. For example, the Jing family enshrines Nangong. I heard that he is a wise old man with the ability to make prophecies come true!"

Zhang He said with a smile: "It's up to man to make things happen, so let him go!"

"It doesn't have to be successful, it's just a casual plan. Anyway, we got 81 cities and 20 slaves. Let's wait for the king to confer titles when we go home!"

Li Si: "That's right, hehe!"

Zhang Helisi and his party boarded the warship, entered the chasm, and went upstream.

The bedroom of the royal palace of Chu.

The servant next to the king of Chu told the story of Zhang He's visit to the Jiujiang Lord's mansion during the day, and even told the king of Chu that Zhang He had sent many treasures.

"Of the five pots of tea in the world, Chu gets the second?"

King Chu got up from the bed, extremely puzzled!

Dry!

When did Zhang He give tea to the widow?

"Zhang He, did you bring tea for the widow?" Chu Wanghan asked the servant beside him suspiciously.

The accompanying servant hurriedly reported: "Your Majesty, not at all! Recently, all the lords and dukes have not paid tribute..."

"Zhang He, what do you mean, you look down on the widow, what do you mean, you have to pay a thousand knives? You actually gave something good to Lord Jiujiang?"

"Come here, ask Mr. Jiujiang, just ask, is it comfortable to drink dragon tea in that luminous cup?" Chu Wanghan's face was a little cold.

This younger brother is really ignorant, it’s Zhang He who is messing with you, and you even accepted Zhang He’s gift. Everyone's leisurely mouth can still stabilize the brotherhood.

If he hadn't pretended to be sick now, he would have wanted to visit this younger brother in person.

However, when the news reached Xiong You's ears, Xiong You was struck by lightning.

Zhang He didn't send anything to the king, he clearly wanted to mess with him!

"Jiujiang Lord, Your Majesty orders you to enter the palace immediately to meet His Majesty, and bring the things Zhang He gave you..."

The newly promoted counselor next to Mr. Jiujiang immediately said to Xiong You after the servant left, "My lord, my lord is going to kill you!"

"Or, let's just keep doing it..." After the counselor finished speaking, he made a gesture of wiping his neck, which made Xiong You sit down on the ground in fright.

"I absolutely can't do such a rebellious thing like killing my brother..."

"My lord, if your majesty wants to kill you, we can't do it. Think about your wife and children, there are hundreds of people in our house..."

"Your Majesty, the 5000 troops guarding the royal city have all gone to Jiangdong. There are only [-] guards in the palace. The guards outside the palace are Cheng Liang Lang Yin. Cheng Liang Lang Yin has just been dismissed by the king. Now the king is acting as the guard. your people."

"I will swear to the death to follow the king!"

Lord Jiujiang was startled suddenly, because the person kneeling in front of him turned out to be the lieutenant general guarding the palace, that is, Lang Yin's subordinates, who now hold heavy soldiers.

And this person was once recommended to the king by him.

The guards of Lord Jiujiang also came to the house from the outside. They were already wearing armor, and they came in and knelt in front of Lord Jiujiang, roaring to swear allegiance to the king to the death.

Jiujiang Lord Xiong You almost cried at this moment, there was room for change, but now it's all gone, all his mother's gone.

Now I have to rebel.

"Your Majesty, you can't hesitate now. I heard that the King is seriously ill. This is a good opportunity, and nobody knows it."

"After the king died of illness and had no heirs, the one who has the best chance to take the throne is you, the king."

"If you do this, you won't even have to bear the reputation of killing your brother."

Jiujiang Lord Xiong still listened to the counselor's words, took a deep breath, and said: "Okay, I will go to meet the king alone tonight, and just hand over these things to the king."

"it is good!"

"Your Majesty, take this well... you can put it in wine or tea." The counselor took out a pill.

Lord Jiujiang hesitated for a long time before taking the pill from the counselor.

Let people take the gift from Zhang He, sit in the carriage, and walk towards the palace.

Standing in front of the gate of the palace, Han Fei couldn't help spitting at Xiong You who was going away. Damn Zhang He actually asked me to support this kind of thing. This **** mud can't support the wall!

I don't know if it will be successful this time?

But no matter whether he succeeds or not, he has to hide first. It is important to save his life, and his wife is still waiting for him at home.

"Xiao Zhuang, let's find an inn to live in first, and wait for Xiong You to succeed in usurping the throne. If it succeeds, we will be rich and rich, and we will go home and get married. If it doesn't work, let's ask Zhang He for money. "

Wei Zhuang, who was pretending to be a servant next to him, rolled his eyes dully.

He found that he was really wrong, and he went further and further down the wrong path...

Never go back.

Ever since she promised Princess Honglian to go to Xianyang, Wei Zhuang disappeared at that moment...

Xiaozhuang is the only one alive now.

Hey, Han Fei got into Zhang He's boat, and Han Fei, the former boss, dragged himself into the boat again, and he couldn't be younger anymore.

Chapter 270 The land obtained is divided into prefectures and counties, and the capable ministers are sent there

The sails were raised high, and with the evening river wind, they went upstream. After two days, Zhang He finally reached the border between Wei and Chu.

Zhang He immediately began to write the memorial.
