Chapter 445: Shouchun Chaos, the King of Chu Killed
Shouchun City, royal palace.
Since Zhaoqi sent troops, the brief chaos that lasted for several days in Shouchun City has temporarily come to an end.
Of course, the supporters of Zhaoqi, who had only five thousand soldiers, would not act rashly at this time, and those opponents who were killed and blood flowed into a river could only lick their wounds silently in the darkness, waiting for the opportunity to make a comeback.
It seemed as if nothing had happened, and the palace had returned to the appearance of singing and singing every night.
The King of Chu sat at the top. Although he was still far from his age, his loose skin and thick dark circles were enough to explain how the King of Chu was hollowed out by the wine.
The successive failures and civil strife seemed to have brought the ambitions of the King of Chu to an end, and the pressure from the powerful neighbor of Zhao in the north was so great that it was impossible to breathe.
Some people will choose to rise up in the face of such a dilemma, while others will choose to escape. The King of Chu is obviously the latter.
"Come on, ladies, drink this cup with me!" At the banquet, the King of Chu smiled and raised the wine lord.
Next to the King of Chu, Mrs. Zhao stuck to the King of Chu like an octopus, and smiled charmingly, "The king is so good at drinking, I can't even accept it."
The King of Chu laughed loudly, tightened his arms hard to make the beauty closer to him, and said with great courage: "No matter how you can accept it or not, I will give you a good job tonight! Come on, I will drink it together!"
There were two other wives beside the King of Chu. He heard this and raised his title one after another, and said with a charming smile: "I've all drunk it, it's time for the king!"
The King of Chu was not willing to show weakness. He drank all the wine as soon as he looked up and drank it all. It was because he was too anxious. A lot of wine overflowed from his lips and dripped along his beard on his chin.
The aroma of wine in the air became more and more intense.
After the first lord was finished, the King of Chu slapped the wine on the table with a loud bang and said proudly: "Where is the wine? Full of it for me! By the way, the medicine my wife gave me recently is indeed a magical medicine. I like it very much, I like it very much! Don't leave tonight, all of you will serve me in the hall!"
The three ladies were stunned when they heard this, and then Mrs. Zhao suddenly became shy and said, "Master, this... isn't good."
The King of Chu smiled and squeezed hard in an indescribable place, saying, "You didn't give this idea to me yourself. Do you know how to be shy now?"
Mrs. Zhao was extremely shy and hid her head in the arms of the King of Chu, so she couldn't stand up.
In front of the King of Chu and the three ladies, many dancers danced gracefully in the melodious music, and the scene was so lively.
An inconspicuous temple man stood quietly in the corner of the palace, staring coldly at the desolate scene in front of him, slowly shook his head, and made a conclusion in his heart: "This is the king who has destroyed the country! Forget it, it's a good deal for him."
Late at night.
After a great battle in the bedroom, peace has returned to its original state.
Outside the hall, heavy snow fell all over the sky.
Mrs. Zhao walked out of the bedroom and said to the soldiers guarding both sides: "Mrs. I will make soup for the king. Please wait for the good life to guard, don't make any mistakes, do you understand?"
The soldiers also knew that Mrs. Zhao had recently given the King of Chu a magic medicine to restore the might of the Chu King, who was originally a little helpless. Every night, the sounds in the hall always make people think a lot, so naturally they had no objection. Seeing Mrs. Zhao hurried away with two palace maids and a temple man.
Two quarters of an hour later, at the side gate of the Chu State Palace City, a very angry voice sounded again: "Didn't I say that, don't come if there is no urgent matter! Moreover, four people will be sent out this time to leave the palace? If the palace pursues it, can I bear this responsibility?"
The Chu officer who was in charge of guarding the palace gate again today stared at Miao Xian very angry. Not far behind Miao Xian, several women in thick leather clothes could not see clearly.
Miao Xian smiled with a grudge and whispered: "You don't know anything. This time, Mrs. Zhao's magic medicine suddenly disappeared. I want to go to Lingyin to get the medicine. I am also ordered to do it, so I have to do it."
As he said that, another heavy small cloth bag was stuffed into the officer's hands.
The officer weighed the weight of the cloth bag in his hand, his face looked a little better, and his tone calmed down a lot: "It's not impossible to leave the palace. After all, you also have a token of your wife. Can I still go against her... But what's wrong with you if you want to send four people at once? Can't you go alone?"
The palace city is so big. The fact that the King of Chu obtained the "magic medicine" and showed his power every night had already spread in the palace city. It was an open secret, so the officer naturally did not know about it.
Miao Xian smiled bitterly and said, "You don't know anything. The formula of this magical medicine is really complicated. If you don't let the confidant palace servants watch it, your wife will not be satisfied. Moreover, the wife has instructed you to have three medicinal ingredients and three parts. Each of them must be specifically responsible for one person. No mistakes can be made, and you must carry them separately... Tell me, what can I do?"
After complaining, Miao Xian whispered again: "You have been an officer for so many years. Don't you want to mention it? As long as this magical medicine can work, my wife will have a prince in the future, so don't she need some hard-core supporters? You should know what I mean."
When the officer heard this, his face suddenly moved and he whispered: "Is this magical medicine related to asking for a child?"
Although the three wives are favored, none of them have been pregnant yet, which is something everyone knows.
Miao Xian smiled and stuffed a small cloth bag into the officer's hand, with an expression that he knew the heaven and earth, you and I knew, but he didn't say anything again.
The officer looked at Miao Xian, pondered for a while, suddenly stuffed one of the small cloth bags back into Miao Xian's hand, and whispered: "My name is Li Ben, you must tell my wife my name so that she can help her at any time. Do you understand?"
Miao Xian smiled, took a handful of the bag from the cloth, and pushed the remaining half back into the officer's hand: "Don't worry, General Li Ben, Madam will definitely remember your loyalty."
The two looked at each other and laughed.
Li Ben turned around and spoke, "It's been checked, open the door and let them go out!"
A gap was quietly opened at the side door of the palace city, and the four figures disappeared silently in the wind and snow.
The next morning, a sound of extremely frightened suddenly sounded from the palace bedroom.
"King? King!? Come!"
I saw that on the messy bedding in the bedroom, the King of Chu was bleeding from seven orifices, his whole body was so cold that he had died for a long time.
When the queen who arrived after hearing the news ordered people to investigate, everyone discovered that the three wives who should have been in the bedroom last night had disappeared without a trace.
