Black Emperor Temple.

As soon as Xiong Huai got the news of Yingdu, his blood immediately surged, and he scolded angrily: "Shaft, if you continue to break off, you will suffer from it, and now you are in trouble." ”

Originally, Xiong Huai thought that although the crown prince was not a smart person, he had been the prince for so many years, and even supervised the country several times, during which he rarely went on business.

However, this time, Prince Heng completely failed him.

With the assistance of a group of virtuous ministers such as Ling Yin Zhaoju and Tang Yu, he still made a mess of things, and even made the situation develop to the worst.

This... This is not only unintelligent, but also stupid, simply stupid.

Moreover, not only is it stupid, but it is also not responsible and decisive.

disappointed, very disappointed, Xiong Huai has never been so disappointed in Prince Heng as he is now.

A hundred years later, who will be able to continue.

A strong thought suddenly popped up in Xiong Huai's mind.

After a pause, Xiong Huai shook his head, then looked at the Taibu Guanyou and Sanlu doctors in the hall and asked, "Two virtuous people, can you teach me?" ”

When the two of them heard this, their heads, which had originally been lowered because they heard the King of Chu scolding the prince, instantly became even lower.

Seeing this, Xiong Huai let out another long sigh, not to mention that the two of them had no choice, even he was very embarrassed now.

Originally, there were many opportunities to rescue the fire, as long as the crown prince in charge of supervising the country could make a decision, whether it was to recruit ordinary people or artisan slaves, he could quickly extinguish the fire.

However, because of the prince's hesitation and lack of responsibility, he fell into the plan of the suspicious soldiers, which gave the nobles in the city enough time to respond.

Now, the nobles in the city are deployed to fight the fire, whether the fire can be extinguished, Xiong Huai can think of the result even if he thinks with his feet.

At this moment, Xiong Huai's biggest expectation in his heart is that the nobles are not in a hurry, and they will not burn down the Zhanghua Palace in Yunmeng, or they will not burn the fire to Yingdu.

Or... Zhao Ju Qu Yuan and they were able to control the fire in these two directions.

In this way, even if it comes to the worst outcome, Xiong Huai can keep a pair of bottoms. Otherwise, as long as the fire spreads to either of these two places, the body of destiny that Xiong Huai has worked hard for many years will fall apart.

And the king of Chu, who is swept away, will also be besieged by his ministers, and at that time, if he continues to push forward the reform, then a runaway civil strife will be inevitable.

Thinking about it, Xiong Huai suddenly looked like an ant on a hot pot, and he was in a hurry under the statue of Nuwa.

After a while, just as Xiong Huai was constantly circling in the main hall, Gongzi Wangcai walked in quickly.

"Father, the situation of the fire, the fire has just spread, but fortunately, the nobles in the city rushed to help, so that the fire can be controlled."

"Got it?" When Xiong Huai heard this, not only did he not have the slightest joy in his heart, but he became even heavier.

If the nobles can control the fire at this time, then the nobles can also let the fire spread quickly later.

Now, the nobles who were suppressed by the general trend of changing the law have regained the initiative through this fire.

Perhaps... It won't be long before the nobles will attack.

Thinking about it, Xiong Huai silently sighed in his heart.

Suddenly, Xiong Huai saw that Gongzi Wangcai, who came to report the news, was overjoyed, revealing that he had already passed the difficult time.

Seeing this, Xiong Huai's heart sank to a low point.

After thinking about it, Xiong Huai opened his mouth and asked, "Wangcai, for my father, remember that you are about to perform the crown ceremony, right?" ”

When Gongzi Wangcai heard this, he immediately nodded and said, "Father, the son is already eighteen years old, and he can perform the crown ceremony when he still has a year." ”

"Good! Eighteen, it's time to start worrying about the widow. Xiong Huai nodded, then groaned, looked at Gongzi Wangcai and said: "The Tang Dynasty of the Zhu Kingdom knows astronomy and geography, and is familiar with national politics and is proficient in military affairs, and he is a world-famous sage of my Chu State." The widow wants you to worship Zhuguo as a teacher, what do you think? ”

When Gongzi Wangcai heard that his father wanted to worship Tang Yu of Zhuguo as his teacher, he was overjoyed.

You must know that Zhu Guo Tang Wu not only has a heavy army, and nine times out of ten he will succeed Ling Yin after Zhao Ju, but also Zhu Guo Tang Wu is proficient in "Yi", he is the world's leading astronomer, and he is a real university scholar.

To be able to worship such a great sage as a teacher, what luxury do you want!

So, Gongzi Wangcai immediately bowed down: "The sons and daughters are all up to their fathers." ”

"Good." Xiong Huai said expressionlessly: "Wangcai, you immediately go to Zhuguo's command to do things, and when you finish praying for your father, you will officially ask Zhuguo to accept you as a student." ”

"Thank you, Father!" Gongzi Wangcai bowed happily.

Soon after Gongzi Wangcai left, the right Sima Deng Lingguang walked in again.

"The news came from Yingdu just now, the prince and Ling Yin jointly ordered that the corporal under the command of Si Defeat be patrolled in Yingdu, strictly spread rumors among the people, and began to arrest those who spread rumors."

"Hmm." Xiong Huai replied expressionlessly.

"In addition!" Deng Lingguang continued: "Ling Yin has personally gone to the place where the fire started to direct the firefighting, and Ling Yin is organizing the people who spontaneously went to fight the fire, and made every effort to prevent the fire from spreading in the direction of Yingdu. ”

"Good and good, worthy of Ling Yin, Yingdu is worry-free." When Xiong Huai heard this, he suddenly showed a hint of joy.

Those people who spontaneously went to fight the fire were mostly the people in Yingdu who were inspired by the nobility in Yingdu City, they came from Yingdu, and now Zhaoju asked them to stop the fire from spreading to Yingdu, which was just right.

"And." Deng Lingguang continued: "The news came from the Zuo disciples, the Zuo disciples have called on the Qu clan and many nobles to prepare to go to the fire with all the people in their families, and the Zuo disciples said, please don't worry about Zhanghua Palace. ”

"Hahaha... No worries! Xiong Huai laughed.

In the southeast of Yingdu, it has been burning all night, and the fire that has spread for more than 20 miles is still burning.

In addition to the fire, the deployment of the local people and the nobles was mixed, and although the scene was a little messy, everyone worked together and was able to barely control the fire.

At this time, outside of the fire, Jing Shao walked to Zhao Chang's side with a flushed face under the light of the fire:

"Zuo Yin, I just got the news that Ling Yin is organizing the people of Yingdu to fight fires in the west, and that guy Qu Yuan is calling on the aristocratic team in Yingdu to support the change of law, and intends to support Yunmeng."

"Support Yunmeng!" Zhao Chang sneered: "Yunmeng Daze covers an area of two thousand miles, except for the waters in the south, the rest is all jungles and small lakes, the jungle is overgrown with weeds, the forests are luxuriant, and the lakes are intertwined. ”

With a sneer, Zhao Chang suddenly remembered Tang Yulai.

In case Tang Wu ordered the army to fight the fire, in the case that Sima Jingque did not unite with him, and Sima Jingque did not take the initiative to fight for military power, then... Saying that, the fire may be extinguished by the army.

Thinking about it, Zhao Chang said with a heavy face: "Doctor Shang, what is Zhuguo doing now?" Can the Pillar Country be in the barracks outside the city? ”

"Nope." Jing Shao shook his head and said: "Our spies who monitored Tang Wu came to report, after Tang Wu left the palace, he went back to the mansion directly, and gathered the guests in his mansion, I don't know what he is doing in the mansion at the moment." ”

"Don't know?" Zhao Chang was stunned, then shook his head and said, "Then don't worry about it, as long as Tang Mo doesn't go to the barracks to call the army." ”

Then, Zhao Chang looked at Jing Shao with a flushed face, and asked expectantly, "Doctor, what's the situation with the rumors?" ”

"Zuo Yin rest assured." Jing Shao said with a smile: "With the people of Yingdu coming to put out the fire, the rumors of Yingdu have spread with the people for dozens of miles, plus our people have fueled the fire, at this time, the fire is already known within a radius of twenty miles, and this fire is a warning from heaven to the king." ”

"Okay." Zhao Chang was overjoyed, and then he asked, "How are the six monarchs?" ”

"The six monarchs have already promised, as long as Zuo Yin is willing to take the lead, then they are willing to follow Zuo Yin to go outside the Black Emperor Temple to admonish."

"Great!" Zhao Chang shook his head and looked at the nearby fire, and said with a smile: "Now that this fire has not spread for a while, it is time for the people to see the Mandate of Heaven." ”
