Chapter 3 Relegation(1/2)
Xiang Yu looked at so many treasures and thought: Since Hu Hai admires me so much and is afraid of me, I shouldn't kill him. With my invincible majesty and fierceness, who in the world is not afraid and who is not bowing down?
Am I afraid of this loser's rebellion? Since he is so 'sincere' and I have the ambition to dominate the world, I can't kill them all. How about giving him a chance?! Since King Qin has surrendered, the countries have gone to their respective places, and I have become the Western King.
Overlord of Chu, if Emperor Yi is deposed sooner or later, wouldn’t I be the emperor of Zhou? What a wonderful scene that is!
Shusun Tong spoke again: "Overlord, I think that when Shang Tang attacked Xia Jie, the descendants of Xia were in Qidi; King Wu conquered Zhou and the descendants of Yin were in Song. They all gave vast fiefs to win the trust of the people of Song Dynasty.
The world. Now the Overlord has bravely unified the world and re-divided the world. Since our Qin State has surrendered, it is a vassal state under the Overlord's rule. Why don't the Overlord follow the example of Shang Tang and King Wu and protect it. This is what a sage should do!"
When Xiang Yujing's uncle Sun Tong said this, his eyes lit up and he nodded repeatedly, "Yes, the Shang Dynasty used people from the Xia Dynasty, and the Zhou Dynasty used people from the Shang Dynasty. Their empires were hundreds of years old. The Qin Dynasty did not use people from the Zhou Dynasty, nor did they divide the world.
As a result, swordsmen gathered and wars broke out, and it only lasted a few decades. Why don't I, Xiang Yu, learn from the past and imitate my predecessors?
This overlord is a sage! He turned his attention to Fan Zeng, who immediately jumped up and denied it.
"Overlord, this is the Qin army's delaying strategy. The Overlord must not be believed to be true. Now the King of Qin is besieged by the fourteen princes in the pass. He is helpless on all sides, alone, with a shortage of food and grass, and no troops. He only has the power to hold on, but there is no way to stand up.
On that day. And our country Chu is full of high spirits, full of energy, and high fighting spirit. Victory is just around the corner. The King of Qin is in danger, and the country may be destroyed at any time, why should he ask for peace?"
Xiang Yu doesn't think so, why should he seek peace? What he relies on is these national treasure-level gifts. This is called sincerity!
"What Shusun Tong said is not unreasonable. I want to overthrow the tyrannical Qin and restore the enfeoffment of the Qin Dynasty, so that the meritorious ministers can all have territories and subjects, share the world, share the wealth and honor, and unite under the banner of our great Chu."
.Now there are four out of five people in the world, only Guanzhong is missing. The King of Qin has removed the title of emperor and changed his name to King of Qin. In other words, the tyrannical Qin Dynasty has been destroyed. The country in front of us is the Qin State that surrendered to the great Chu. If I make a decree
, canonize Hu Hai as King of Qin, and Qin will officially become a vassal state of Chu. Wouldn't it be great to achieve peaceful unification without losing blood, without wasting people and money?"
"Think twice, my lord, the Qin State has been a 'state of tigers and wolves' since ancient times, with absolutely no credibility to speak of. Have you forgotten how King Huai was deceived? Ying Hu Hai is cruel and ruthless, and has rogue habits. Today, when he is weak, he kneels down in front of you and sheds tears.
His face is full of tears and his words are full of bitterness, which makes people sympathize. But when he gains power tomorrow, he will turn against him and forget what he said. The people of Qin have always attacked weak sheep with the attitude of jackals, and treated good people with the hearts of tigers and leopards. This is a country of villains.
, Your Majesty must not be soft-hearted, tolerate adultery, and leave harm behind."
What Fan Zeng said is absolutely correct. The Qin State has always been "bullying the weak and fearing the strong". He will deal with whichever country is weak, and whichever country is strong, he will make peace with you, make peace with you, and become sworn brothers. He is extremely insidious.
Already.
"What do you think Yafu means?" Xiang Yu was also making plans in his mind.
"Kill Shusun Tong, use the jade seal to call on the army and the people of the country, and launch a massive attack on Guanzhong. The battle will be decisive." Fan Zeng said decisively.
"Alas! When the two countries are at war, they don't kill the envoys. How can I, Xiang Yu, do such a thing?"
Shusun Tong was also sweating. Hearing this, he kowtowed and said: "The overlord must make the decision on major affairs of the kingdom. Who can guarantee that others have no selfish motives? King Qin has absolutely no intention of going out to fight, he only wants peace.
For a moment, I hope the overlord can learn from this."
Xiang Yu said, "I'll think about it again, and I'll give you an answer later, okay?"
"The king is indeed stable. Everyone says that the overlord has great talents and great strategies. He is a master of hundreds of schools of literature and masters of Sun Tzu's art of war. Today, when I see him, he is truly worthy of his reputation. I admire him in admiration."
Shusun tried his best to flatter Xiang Yu and praised Xiang Yu so much that he was top-heavy and his heart was sweeter than honey.
Shusuntong was taken down for a bath, a meal, and then brought back. The situation in front of him had changed drastically. Fan Zeng and Zhong Limei looked at him with obvious hatred in their eyes. It was as if they were a bird.
The hungry wolf has not eaten the sheep.
But Xiang Bo had a relaxed look on his face, and he looked at Shusun Tong and smiled, a bit secretly sending him "autumn spinach". It was probably because he said good things to him.
Fan Zeng's face was livid, and he finally said: "Overlord, this must not be done. Once the identity of King Qin is recognized, there is no way to call on the world to crusade."
Xiang Yu raised his hand to stop him, "My father is too worried. The King of Qin has surrendered and the world has been unified. All the government orders come from me. Who dares to disobey the orders given by me? Wherever my hundreds of thousands of cavalry go, they destroy everything.
Who is not afraid! There is no need to find the princes of the world to attack. Besides, the situation in the world has been decided. We should also follow the example of King Wu and Shang Tang and leave the ancestral temple and the country to Qin Shihuang. Is this in line with the will of God and the people?"
"Long live the Overlord, long live the Overlord, long live, long live -" Shusun Tong howled, knelt down and kowtowed, and cried bitterly; "It is said that the Overlord's character is better than that of Yao, Shun, and Yu. It is indeed true. Shusun Tong's
Hui is really convinced. After returning to China, I must preach the kindness of the Overlord to the people of Sanchuan, so that they will always be grateful to the Overlord. The King of Qin will also worship the Overlord as a father and brother. Thank you, the Overlord, thank you, the Overlord." Bang bang bang,
Another violent blow, his forehead immediately started to bleed, and he almost fainted due to concussion.
"It is my decree that from now on, all government orders in Da Chu will be sealed with jade seals. The first decree I issued is to confer Ying Hu Hai as the King of Qin. From now on, the world will be peaceful, the country will be peaceful, and the people will be safe. Everyone will be in his place and perform his duties.
No more using weapons."
"Thank you, Overlord. Thank you, Overlord. I have another request that I don't know whether to make or not." Seeing Xiang Yu's happiness, Shusun Tong pressed forward.
"speak!"
"Overlord, in recent days, there has been an illegal armed force on the border of Qin. This team is no longer within your fiefdom, but it is attacking and annexing cities everywhere. To show my loyalty, I ask the king for permission, and the king of Qin will lead his troops to destroy it.
This group of thieves."
Zhongli asked, "Are you talking about Lu Pheasant, Han Xin, Zhang Liang, Chen Ping and the others?"
"Peng!" Xiang Yu jumped up and immediately turned his head. The people he hated most in his life were Han Xin, Chen Ping, and Zhang Liang. Han Xin and Chen Ping were both deserters under his command, and Zhang Liang was what he wanted but didn't get.
people.
"Tell Ying Hu Hai to send troops to destroy him without any mistakes." Xiang Yu's characteristic is that he is super arrogant and uses a chicken feather as an arrow. He really regarded himself as King Wen of Zhou and began to give orders.
"Yes, I respect your Majesty's will. I respect your Majesty's will." Shusun Tong only kowtowed.
"Wait a minute, this must not be done!" Fan Zeng had another opinion: "Overlord, you must not give King Qin the right to use troops. He will definitely take the opportunity to grow stronger."
Xiang Yu thought to himself, this is not certain, maybe Zhang Liang and Han Xin will consume his power.
"The King of Qin doesn't even have the jade seal, so what ambitions can he have? No matter how strong he is, he can only occupy the land of four counties, and he is always facing the threat of the Xiongnu, so he can't make it happen. The matter is settled like this, and I will finally
I hate Han Xin, that crotch-obsessed bitch."
"Thank you, Overlord, Overlord, may I ask about Empress Yuji——"
Xiang Yu interrupted Shusun Tong's words with a wave of his hand and ordered: "Everyone, go out. I have some personal matters to talk to Shusun Tong." Fan Zeng said loudly; "Overlord——"
Xiang Yu smiled bitterly and said, "My father-in-law, I have already thought about it very clearly. I will pay my respects to you tonight. This matter has been settled. Go down."
Fan Zeng almost suffered a stroke, please, it's useless. Your life is about to be lost.
"Shu Sun Tong, I want to ask you, is Empress Yu Ji okay?" Xiang Yu pulled Yu Ji aside and said in a low voice.
"Empress Yu Ji is very kind. The King of Qin takes great care of her. She is meticulous and considerate. She is given numerous rewards every day and she has never been wronged in any way!"
Xiang Yu's face changed color: "Is your Majesty happy?"
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. Your Majesty, your Majesty is very happy every day. Sometimes she even sings in the garden. She has no worries!"
Xiang Yu roared: "Did Ying Hu Hai force her?"
Shusun Tong said in fear, "No, Overlord, the relationship between King Qin and the empress is innocent, absolutely innocent."
Xiang Yu didn't believe this. He didn't expect Yu Ji to be so carefree and happy to be away from him for such a long time. She must be coveting the wealth in Guanzhong.
This is also a major characteristic of Xiang Yu's character: he is suspicious, does not trust people, and cannot distinguish between good and bad people. This is how Fan Zeng was forced to leave later.
"Hi!" Xiang Yu shook his head; "Let's put the matter of Yu Ji aside for now - you go down -"
As soon as Shusun Tong turned around and went out, Xiang Yu called for the messenger for Lu Matong. He had not made up his mind in the past few days, but now he has decided that Yu Ji can no longer be alive.
Let me share it with others, I would rather destroy her!!
Before Shusun Tong left, he went to see Xiang Bo. He sat for a while and said nothing. He just offered fifty thousand gold, chatted for a while and then left. Shusun Tong was also confused. He was acting according to Wang Zhu's order.
!
Wang Zhu was also messing around. He always felt that this Uncle Xiang was strange. He seemed to have a grudge against Xiang Yu?!
I am puzzled!
It was a long night and many dreams. On the third day, Shusun Tong said goodbye to Xiang Yu and returned to Guanzhong. In order to show his generosity, Xiang Yu even saw him off for five miles in person. He asked Shusun Tong to send a message to the King of Qin. As long as he was honest, he would not suffer.
beat.
Shusun Tong thanked him for his kindness and said goodbye with tears.
Xiang Yu also gave Shusun Tong fifty kilograms of gold. He thought it was a lot, but in fact, in Shusun Tong's eyes, it was not worth mentioning at all.
Wang Zhu applauded loudly after hearing Shusun Tong's report. He rewarded him with two thousand gold coins and named him "Huaili Jun".
Shu Suntong compared Wang Zhu and Xiang Yu together and felt that he was with the right boss!
Just mess with you!
After repeated consultations with several counselors and ministers, the following responses were made to Xiang Yu's canonization {in the name of Yi Di}. First, build a living shrine for Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, in Xianyang City, and prepare three animals with pig heads and Wang Zhu every month.
Go and worship in person.
Second, change my title to "Idle Man", "Queen" to "Queen", and burn all prohibited items. For example, the emperor's chariot with eight horses was changed to the prince's six-horse chariot. The crown on the head was discarded, and the emperor's chariot was worn.
The crown that was once used! All other decorative items were replaced. In short, we tried our best to erase the shadow of the emperor, as if Qin Shihuang had never unified the six kingdoms. Let’s start over, buddy!
Third, Wang Zhu ordered someone to write a memorial to thank him and send it to Pengcheng immediately to show his sincerity.
Fourth, a large-scale beauty pageant was immediately held in Qinchuan. The bigger the event, the better. Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng felt that he had no ambition.
Fifth, prepare food and military supplies, gather troops, and prepare for a "feint attack" on Lu Pheasant's army to express his obedience to the order of the Overlord of Chu. Wang Zhu also had someone make a slogan with white silk, which read: "On the order of the Overlord, we will attack the unconquered subjects."
”, it can be said to be justifiable.
The sixth is to celebrate grandly and drink every day! Fan Zeng must have sent many people to Xianyang to be spies, and we can't let him see the flaws.
As soon as these measures came out, the people of Qinchuan didn't understand why, and the Qin army didn't understand either. The reputation that Wang Zhu had worked so hard to restore was in vain, and the title of "Faint King" came back to his head. {This book is in progress.
