What to do?

Facing Dongchengjun's question, everyone frowned.

Although they had already exerted great pressure on the King of Chu, but now the King of Chu was forcibly pushing forward the investigation under pressure, so that a burst of pressure from the dead clan to destroy the family was instantly placed in front of them.

While everyone was pondering, Liujun suddenly glanced at Dongcheng Jun who was panicking and asked, "Dongcheng Jun, Jun's fief is next to the Yin Tomb, do you know where those missing Yin Tomb people have gone?" ”

Dongchengjun was stunned for a moment, and then reacted. Now that the king of Chu has withstood the joint pressure of the nobles, and seeing that the fire of Yinling is about to burn to themselves, in order to put aside the involvement, they also have to find out who did the matter of Yinling.

Otherwise, according to Sima Qian's investigation, they would have to be like Yin Lingjun, who died in vain.

Thinking about it, Dongcheng Jun shook his head with a puzzled face and said: "This problem is not very clear in Xia, although Zai Xia and Yinling Jun are neighbors, but in order to avoid conflicts between everyone over the land of the people, the people are generally strictly forbidden to go to the fiefs of other nobles without authorization.

Everything, the matter of Yinling, I Dongcheng also heard the news from the surrounding counties, and I learned about the matter of Yinling. When Dongcheng got the news, the people of Yinling had already heard all the news.

Now, the only thing that can be confirmed below is that none of the people of Yinling fled to Dongcheng. Also, Qu Yangjun and the surrounding nobles also asked, and the people of Yinling did not go to their fiefdom. ”

Long Shujun frowned when he heard this, and said: "Where is there no news of the people of Yinling in the surrounding feudal monarchs, and the surrounding counties have also investigated, and there is no news of the people of Yinling."

Since the people of Yinling did not go to the surrounding places, there was only one way for them to leave Yinling. ”

Dongcheng Jun's eyes lit up: "Yin Ling Daze!" What Long Shujun meant was that the people of Yinling had gone elsewhere through Huaishui. ”

"Not bad." Long Shujun nodded, and then frowned again: "However, although we have now determined that the people have fled through Huaishui, the problem is more complicated.

There are three countries on both sides of the Huai River, the Song State of Qi on the north side and the Chu State on the south side.

And since the last time we repelled the Five-Nation Alliance, the relationship between our Chu State and Qi and Song countries has rapidly eased and approached, and even the Great King has signed an alliance with the two countries to open the border checkpoints and not block the caravans.

Now above the Huaishui, the fleet of Qi, Song and Chu merchants is endless, if the people of Yinling flee through the Huaishui, then we have no way to investigate, let alone know whether those people went to Shou County or Huaiyin, or went further. Not to mention whether they went to the Song Kingdom or the Qi Kingdom. ”

"The possibility of Qi is relatively high." Dongcheng Jun was shocked: "Although the Song Kingdom is close, the territory on the north bank of Huaishui is the sphere of influence of the crown prince, and the prince should not dare to accept the people of our Chu country." On the side of the Qi State, the Huaibei Land of the Qi State is not only located in the lower reaches of the Yin Tomb. Moreover, as we all know, Ji Yi, the chief guest of Yinling Jun, is a native of Qi State, and the key problem is that when Yinling Jun went to Yingdu this time, Ji Yi was left to assist the prince.

Therefore, if Ji Yi betrayed Yinling Jun, with his status and means, it would not be a complicated matter to quickly kill Yinling Manmen. ”

"Is it really the hand of Qi Guo?" Liujun frowned and said, "But it's not right, what's in it for Qi State?" With more than 3,000 households, King Qi shouldn't be able to look down on it! ”

Long Shujun twisted his beard lightly and said: "Although this time, the biggest thing is likely to be the hand of Qi Guo, but it is not necessarily Qi Guo. It may be that Zhao Guo bought the disciples of Yin Ling Jun, and then blamed Qi State to split our Qi Chu Alliance.

Of course, it is also possible that the Qi State made a move and then blamed the Zhao State to divide the Chu and Zhao countries, and then used the Qi and Chu Alliance to fight against the Three Jin Alliance.

Judging from the news from Yingdu, Zuo Yin has already pointed the finger at Zhao in the court meeting temporarily convened by the king. Although Zuo Yin said that he wanted to use the power of various countries to put pressure on the king, we cannot rule out that Zuo Yin has already had contacts with other countries.

You must know that Zuo Yin has been traveling to various countries all the year round, and he has friendships with all countries. ”

Liujun's face changed: "If Zuo Yin knows the inside story of the matter, then why didn't he come up with some evidence at the court meeting to prove that it was the hand of other countries." On the contrary, he sat back and watched the king strictly order the defeat of the emperor to go to the counties and fiefdoms to investigate, isn't this forcing us to die? ”

Long Shujun sneered: "Sixth Jun, don't forget, how Zuo Yin treated Yin Ling Jun!" The relationship between us and Zuo Yin is just a cooperative relationship, if it weren't for the fact that the king trusted Qu Yuan and them during this time and promoted the change, Zuo Yin would have chosen to cooperate with us as a last resort.

If there was no Qu Yuan to change the law, with Zuo Yin's status in the court, he would definitely deliberately suppress and restrict us local nobles in order to strengthen the power of Yingdu. ”

“···” Liujun's heart was cold, and he suddenly remembered that in order to ensure their power in the court, the Zhaojingqu clan suppressed the nobles from all over the world and guests from all over the world.

It is precisely for this reason that since Wu Qi, Ling Yin of Chu State has either been the brother of the King of Chu or selected from the three clans of Zhaojingqu.

Even the current king, who has reigned for decades and has surpassed King Zhuang in his achievements, his Lingyin is all selected from the Zhaojing and Zhaojing clans.

This shows the strength of the three clans of Zhaojingqu, and the others, no matter what kind of talent they have, are unable to stand out in the court.

At this time, Dongcheng Jun said with pity: "Perhaps, Zuo Yin's plan is to borrow the hands of the king to kill a few of our feudal monarchs, and then wait for the nobles everywhere to boil due to fear, and then come up with evidence of other countries' actions."

In this way, once there is conclusive evidence, then there will be an uproar in the kingdom where the king mistakenly killed the nobles, and then, in the face of the protests of the ministers, the king must let Yin Zhaoju commit suicide to apologize, and then expel Qu Yuan, Tang Wu and others.

In this way, the power in the court is all in the hands of his Zhaochang, waiting for two years, waiting for the death of the king and the crown prince to ascend the throne, then he Zhaochang will become the second Zhaoxi who forced the king of Chu to force the ministers. ”

"It won't be like this, will it?" Liujun looked at Dongchengjun in a daze.

Dongchengjun and Long Shujun saw the disbelief on Liujun's faces, and they all smiled and stopped talking.

At this time, the six monarchs thought silently in their hearts, and had to admit that if this matter was really done by Zhao Chang in collusion with other countries, then their seventeen feudal monarchs might have become Zhao Chang's abandoned sons.

Thinking about it, Liujun asked in a gloomy tone, "Both, what should we do now." ”

Long Shujun thought for a while and took the lead in speaking: "Right now, Sima Jian is about to go to Yinling, so the top priority is to drag Sima Qian, otherwise, once Sima Jian Dongcheng finds out that Dongcheng Jun is hiding the population and fields, then Dongcheng Jun even if you have nothing to do with the affairs of Yinling, then you will be finished." ”

"Yes, that's exactly what happened." Dongchengjun nodded with a heavy face.

Then, Long Shujun spoke again: "Dongcheng Jun, it is not only Dongcheng that is handed over to Yinling, but also Quyang and Zhongli. Therefore, Dongchengjun needs to immediately go to the two places to contact Quyang Jun and Zhong Lijun, on the one hand, use force to threaten, and on the other hand, bribe Sima Jian extremely right, and try to delay the time for Sima Jian to go to the fiefdom to investigate. ”

"Yes." Dongcheng-kun nodded.

At this time, Long Shujun spoke again: "Since it has been confirmed that the matter of Yinling has something to do with other countries, then we need to immediately send people to investigate along Huaishui, whether it is Qi and Song, or Huaiyin in Shou County, or even Yingshui Rushui."

If it is the two countries of Qi and Song, then we will immediately break this matter, and then take the power of all countries to persecute the king. If the people are still in the territory of our Chu State, then push this matter to the princes of the court and the central government, and force the king to dispose of Ling Yin Zuoyin and the Zhu State Zuo disciples. ”

"Okay." Liujun nodded, and said with a fierce face: "Later, I will immediately send a letter to the other nobles, so that everyone can find those missing people together." There are at least 3,000 households in the land of Yinling, and each household has five people, that is, 10,000 people.

I don't believe it, so many people act at the same time, there will be no clues, so many people, how can they disappear out of thin air. ”

At this time, Dongcheng Jun spoke: "Also, the reason why the king can still withstand it now is because he sees that the Six Kingdoms are fighting with the Qin State, and he has no time to take care of it."

Therefore, in order to put pressure on the king, whether the countries are interested in Chu or not, we should take the initiative to send people to bribe the important ministers of various countries to instigate them to enter the game. As long as there is any change in the countries, then the king can no longer ignore our opinions.

In addition, Zuo Yin is no longer reliable, and in my opinion, we have to pay heavy bribes to other important ministers of the court to speak for us, so as to put pressure on the king. ”

"Yes." Liujun nodded and said, "I'll contact the others later, so that everyone can make a sum of money together." ”

"Good!" Dongchengjun and Long Shujun nodded at the same time.
