Just when the prince was in a daze in the main hall, Xiong Huai, who was already in the study, was also in a daze.

At this moment, the thing he was thinking about was the abolition of the prince.

Today, he is completely disappointed in Prince Heng.

However, even if you want to abolish the crown prince, there are two ways, one way is to act with thunderous anger, and use a quick and concise way to immediately abolish the prince in the name of the prince's disobedience and immorality.

It's just that in this way, although the crown prince can be abolished, or even expelled, it is not enough. With the current situation in the Chu State, whether it is him, the crown prince Heng, or Qu Yuan and Tang Wu, they can't retreat, because retreat is death.

Therefore, the prince is abolished but not killed, this is not the abolition of the prince, but the king of Chu.

Xiong Huai can be sure that as long as he deposes the crown prince now, at the important joint of changing the law and moving the capital, those nobles will definitely support the prince as the king. And the energy of the crown prince is far from being comparable to that of the Jianghuai aristocracy.

After all, he himself has been the king of Chu for more than 30 years, and the crown prince Heng has also been the prince for more than 30 years and the prince for 30 years, and his heritage is immeasurable. The most important thing is that as a prince, he has great righteousness in his own right.

In this way, this is not a waste of the prince, but digging his own grave, and by the way, he will build soil for himself.

After thinking about it carefully, Xiong Huai immediately shook his head and vetoed this rough way.

At this time, Xiong Huai suddenly remembered the king of Song not far to the north, and the king of Song also wanted to abolish the prince and abolish the prince Zhen, who had been the prince for more than 40 years. However, even the Song Dynasty, who had already completed the internal reform, could not easily abolish the crown prince.

Not only did it not abolish it, but it made a mess of the country.

King Song is a lesson from the past!

Therefore, since it is not feasible to issue an edict immediately, then you can only hide your intentions as much as possible, slowly figure it out, first sharpen its wings, and then strike a thunderous blow.

No!

At this time, Xiong Huai's mind suddenly flashed, and he muttered: "If it is just like this, it will be too wasteful of the prince's righteous identity." Perhaps, the widow can also take this opportunity to clean up the last hidden dangers of Chu by the way. ”

After speaking, the more Xiong Huai thought about it, the more right he became, and the light in his eyes became brighter and brighter.

Then, after Xiong Huai finished thinking, he shook his head and sighed: "Alas, as the king of a country, as a father, there is no one to do things, it is too much of a failure." Now, I can't stand myself even myself, let alone others!

However, there is no way, my qualifications are not good, I read little in my early years, I don't know the true meaning of virtue in my middle age, I have been studying day and night for 20 years, and in my old age, when I have a comprehension, it is too late, and I can only go to the dark one way!

Fortunately... It's not too late for the widow to understand, the widow can still be saved! ”

A moment later.

A soldier reported outside the palace: "The king, the prince asks to see you." ”

"Humph!" Hearing this, Xiong Huai put down the book in his hand, then frowned, and said even more unhappily in his heart: "It's really a waste, it came later than expected, his heart is too fragile."

At that time, the five countries were invaded, Chen Cheng was lost, thousands of miles of land was lost, and Huaibei was almost unprotected, at that time, how could the widow ever panic!

Compared with the widow, he does not have the demeanor of a widow at all. ”

Saying that, Xiong Huai settled down, and then responded: "Please come in." ”

"Yui."

Then, as soon as the prince entered the study, his father was staring at him with a pair of cold eyes, and when he saw this, he was terrified, and immediately walked forward, and pleaded on the ground: "Father! The son is wrong, and asks his father to forgive him. ”

At this time, Xiong Huai glanced at the prince with a cold eye, and then said indifferently: "Wrong? What are you doing wrong? ”

"Father." The prince wept horizontally and said: "The sons should not listen to the words of the traitors and oppose the relocation of the capital. ”

As soon as Xiong Huai heard the prince's words, the anger in his heart suddenly surged from his chest to his head, and then he couldn't help but be angry, and directly slapped the crime angrily, looking at the prince and shouting angrily: "Bastard, is it your fault to oppose the relocation of the capital?" Is Ling Yin a traitor? Stupidity, simply stupidity.

Successful people can foresee the success or failure of things before they happen, while stupid people still can't figure out where the root cause of success or failure lies after the thing is over.

Now that things have happened, but the prince you still don't know where you are wrong, with a prince like you, how can the widow meet the previous kings under the nine springs in the future, and how should you face the widow under the nine springs? ”

When the prince heard that his father looked like he was going to abolish the prince, he was immediately frightened, and he lay on the ground in horror, crying: "Father, the son is wrong, please calm your father's anger, please calm your father's anger!" ”

"You're wrong!" Xiong Huai sighed: "Lao Ziyun: There is no mutual growth, difficulty and ease are compatible, long and short are dwarfed, high and low are inclined to each other, sound and sound are harmonious, before and after, and constant!"

Therefore, everything in the world is one and the same, and those who have great benefits have great disadvantages, and things that only have benefits and no disadvantages do not exist at all.

Therefore, moving the capital to Shou County, its advantages are great, and its disadvantages are also great, and few people know very well, which is nothing more than to eliminate the disadvantages as much as possible and prevent them from happening.

Therefore, no matter whether you are against or in favor of the prince, the widow will not blame you, not only you, but even the ministers, whether they are against or in favor, the widow will not blame them.

Because, even if everyone opposes it out of selfishness, the few people know in their hearts that the reasons for everyone's opposition are all pertinent and beneficial to the country.

Speak up for the sake of the country, what is wrong!

Even, not only is there no mistake, but there is merit! ”

"Father..." When the prince heard this, his mind was confused.

Originally, he thought that Xiong Huai was angry because he opposed the relocation of the capital in the court, but if it wasn't, what was his father angry about?

Is it because I didn't listen to my father, or because I'm capricious?

Thinking about it, the prince had already vaguely guessed something in his heart.

At this time, Xiong Huai continued: "Prince, the widow is very disappointed today, and the reason for the disappointment is not because you oppose the relocation of the capital, but because you have made a mistake that you should not make as a king. ”

"The last mistake you should make!" The prince was stunned, and raised his head to look at Xiong Huai with some fear: "Please teach my father." ”

Xiong Huai sighed: "Do you know why the king of Yue was killed by the widows in a battle? ”

The crown prince felt a chill in his heart: "King Yue died in the country, is my father comparing me to King Yue?" ”

The crown prince was terrified, and looked at Xiong Huai tremblingly: "Back to my father, the reason why King Yue died was because he was carried away by the previous victory, and he did not guard against the allies behind him.

Not only the Yue Kingdom, but also the Zhongshan Kingdom, it is precisely because the Zhongshan Kingdom is credulous that the Qi State will be sold by the Qi State. ”

"Hehe, I'll draw inferences." Xiong Huai looked at the prince sideways, shook his head and said: "The root cause of King Yue's death is not from the outside, but from the inside, because King Yue is hesitant and capricious.

Because of his hesitation, the king of Yue hesitated on the eldest son and the second son, favoring the eldest son today and the second son tomorrow, so that the whole country was divided into two factions and attacked each other.

And because of King Yue's capriciousness, the ministers and people in the country were all at a loss, because they didn't know what King Yue said now, what he wanted them to do now, and whether it would be completely wrong in the next moment.

The eldest son of today's King Yue's preference, this is the half of the people in the country who are biased towards the second son of King Yue today. Tomorrow, King Yue will favor the second son, that is, King Yue will betray the half of the people in the country who favor the eldest son.

In this way, after the king of Yue repeated many times, all the people did not know where to go, so the king of Yue betrayed his relatives, and even his eldest son betrayed, not to mention others.

Therefore, as a king, the most taboo is capricious, because every time you repeat, you hurt the people who believe in you, and in this way, in the end, you lose all the hearts of the people.

If the king loses the hearts of the people, then the majesty will be swept away, and the majesty will be swept away, and the ministers and the people will not be attached, so that the country will be scattered, and the country will be scattered, and the country will not be far from destruction. ”

When the prince heard this, he immediately sweated profusely and said: "The teachings of my father and the king, the sons and daughters must remember them in their hearts and never dare to forget them." ”

"I hope so." Xiong Huai sighed, then his face turned straight, and he looked at the prince and said: "The widow punished you for meditating at home for two months, cultivating your mind, you can be convinced." ”

When the prince heard that he was only taught by his father, and in the end he was only punished by two months of meditation, and his heart was suddenly relieved, and then he saluted with emotion: "The son is convinced." ”

"Good, the prince goes."

"Yui."

After the prince left, Xiong Huai looked at the back of the prince and did not retract his gaze.

After a long time, Xiong Huai muttered: "Sun Tzu said, if you don't win, you will lose first." If yes... If... In the future, if the widow fails, the widow has nothing else to ask for, I just hope that the prince can remember the widow's teachings and keep the foundation of my Chu State in the future, so that it will not live up to the widow's hard work. ”

······

The news of the relocation of the capital of the Chu State to Shou County soon caused a great shock within the Chu State.

However, because of the general Zhao Lang and the Jianghuai nobles to appease the people of Jianghuai, the move of the capital to Shou County was warmly welcomed in the Jianghuai area.

On the Jianghan side, the Shenwei of the King of Chu is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, although many nobles are dissatisfied with the relocation of the capital by the King of Chu and are unwilling to move the capital, although the people around Yingdu do not want the King of Chu to move the capital away, but under the strong promotion of the King of Chu and the ministers, they can only admit it helplessly.

At the same time, the news of the relocation of the capital of Chu also spread to various countries.

Song State Shangqiu.

King Song, who was still in high spirits, heard that the Chu State had moved the capital to Shou County, and the small grooves on his forehead suddenly turned into a deep river canyon.

At this time, King Song looked at Xiangguo Qiu Liquid and Tang Ying, an important minister, and asked very worriedly: "Two virtuous Qings, you said that the Chu State suddenly moved the capital from Yingdu to Shou County, is this an ulterior motive for the widows!"

The widow suspects that the king of Chu moved the capital to Shou County, just for the widow, Xiong Huai, that kid, has been unhappy with the widow for a long time. ”

Qiu Liquid was also very worried when he heard this.

Now is the prelude to the Five Kingdoms Expedition, the Three Jin Dynasty and the Yan Song Dynasty have already decided to increase their troops, and the King of Chu moved the capital to Shou County at this time, in case the Chu State is on the side of the Qi State, it is not a good thing for the Five Kingdoms to invade Qi.

Thinking about it, Qiu Ye immediately bowed his hand and said: "What the king said is extremely true, and the minister also thinks that the Chu State has bad intentions, but Chu is strong and Song is weak, and it is difficult for the Song State to resist the strong Chu alone."

Therefore, the minister asked the king to immediately send someone to Zhao for help, so that my five-nation alliance could jointly put pressure on Chu. ”

Tang Ying followed: "Great King, the state of Chu is close at hand, and the alliance is far away in the sky, what the minister means is that he should immediately send someone to Shou County, on the one hand, to show goodwill to the king of Chu, and on the other hand to inquire about the intentions of the Chu state."

At the same time, we must also strengthen the vigilance of the Chu State, first, the king should immediately increase the troops in Pengcheng to guard against the sneak attack of the Chu State, and second, the king ordered that the crown prince and Gongzifu gather troops and let them serve as our precursors.

After all, once something happens to the Song Kingdom, it will not be good for the crown prince! ”

King Song thought for a while, bowed slightly, and then looked at Qiu Liquid and said: "Xiangguo, if you have a job, you should go to Handan immediately, while saying that the king of Zhao and Chu moved the capital, and on the other hand, asking for help from the king of Zhao on behalf of the widow." ”

"Yui."

"Spread the edict, let the prince go to Chu State, send a heavy gift to the King of Chu for the widow, and find out the purpose of moving the capital of Chu State."

"Yui."

Qi country Linzi.

After Qi Wangdi learned that the Chu State had moved the capital of Yingdu to Shou County, he also frowned deeply, and then looked at Xiang Guo Zhou and asked: "Xiangguo, you said that the Chu State suddenly moved its capital to Shou County at this moment, is it that the King of Chu saw that the widow was going to fight with the Five Kingdoms, so he intended to take advantage of the fire to rob and want to cut off a piece of meat from the widow." ”

"I don't rule it out." Zhou Shi also didn't care about Chu State's concern to deter Jianghuai, he pondered for a while, and said: "However, it is not ruled out that Chu State wants to disintegrate the Five Nations Alliance. ”

Saying that, Zhou Shi looked at King Qi and said: "Great King, among the five kingdoms, Yan has a very good relationship with Chu, and Korea also has a very good relationship with Chu.

Therefore, the minister thought that at this critical moment, the king should rest assured, take the initiative to submit to the Chu State, and then gather the strength of Qi Chu to compete for the hegemony of the world for the Chu State. ”

"It's a good idea to think about what you're saying!" King Qi pondered for a moment, shook his head and said: "However, what the widow is more worried about is that the Chu State will first participate in the Five Nations Alliance, take the opportunity to cede my Huaibei Land, and then take advantage of the weakness of my Qi State to force the widow to submit, and then compete with the Zhao State." ”

"This..." Zhou was most shocked in his heart, he felt that the possibility of Chu Guo making such a decision was extremely high.

At this time, Qi Wangdi sighed: "The bedside house is leaking, and it coincides with the night rain, which is really a disaster." ”

"Spread the edict, immediately send the minister Lu Li to lobby the Qin State, and let the Qin State send troops to attack Wei Han."

"Yui."

"Spread the edict, let the minister Zhu Fu send an envoy to the state of Chu with heavy gifts, express the respect of the widow to the king of Chu, and then ask the state of Chu to send troops to attack Song Wei. As long as the state of Chu is willing to go to the border, the widow is willing to thank each other for three hundred miles in the land of Huaibei. ”

"Yui."

"Spread the edict, immediately send an envoy to Lu Teng and other countries, ask him to immediately gather troops to Tancheng, and send an order to Doctor Ju, so that he can strengthen his vigilance and be ready to reinforce Tancheng at any time in preparation for Chu State."

"Yui."

Zhao Guo Handan.

Master Zhao's father received the news of the relocation of the capital of Chu from Song State, and he was also shocked.

However, because the five kingdoms are now about to be invaded, and Zhao and Chu have no direct stakes, Zhao doesn't care about Chu at all.

"Spread the edict, immediately send someone to the state of Chu with heavy gifts, one to express respect for the king of Chu, and the other to ask the state of Chu to attack the Huaibei of the state of Qi on the grounds that the widow will send troops to attack Qi and drag the main force of the state of Qi."

"Yui."

"Spread the edict, immediately send someone to the Song State of Wei and invite the King of Wei and the King of Song to go to the Taocheng of the Song State to meet the alliance."

"Yui."

"Pass the edict to the king and Xiangguo, and let Xiangguo take the king to Taocheng and make an alliance with the king of Wei and the king of Song to shake the state of Chu."

"Yui."
