Chapter 511: The Alliance of the Ground (3)

Wang Ziwei gave Zhao Wu a big problem, and everyone's eyes were on Zhao Wu to see how he resolved the crisis. Because of the insult he received, Le Wang Kui attacked his uncle and grandson leopard, saying: "How can the secretary of a country not know the reason for the country to start a war? Uncle Sun Leopard knew the truth but deliberately concealed it, and should be guilty of one more degree. In order to avenge his personal revenge, he even left the great festival of the country behind.

Zhao Wu said to Qi Wu: "Uncle Sun Leopard does not forget the country in times of trouble, thinks about difficulties and does not overstep the official, and forgets to die in the country, he can be called a loyal and loyal person." Such a minister was a model for the princes and doctors, and should not be put to death as criminals. I should do everything I can to save him! ”

Zhao Wu immediately requested urgent consultations with Wang Ziwei to discuss how to resolve the issue of the "crime" of the envoy of the Lu State.

After seeing Wang Ziwei, Zhao Wu first said: "The country of Lu is guilty, this is obvious to all. However, who should bear the responsibility for Lu Guo's crimes and what kind of punishment he will receive still needs to be further discussed. The two countries are not at war, let alone holding a peace meeting. As an envoy, the uncle and grandson leopard did not take refuge in times of trouble, feared the prestige of the great powers, and did not dare to escape punishment, this kind of courtier is what every monarch wants. Wouldn't it be nice if you pardoned him, and used it to advise your subordinate officials?

"If the officials of the Chu State are not polluted internally and do not take refuge in the country outside, what else can the state social welfare worry about? You must know that the disasters of the country all start from the inability to govern due to corrupt officials, and the inability to take responsibility for national disasters! If you don't praise a capable person like Uncle Sun Leopard, who is willing to take responsibility for the country's social work? Therefore I ask you for pardon of your uncle and grandson, and if you convene an alliance to pardon the sinful nations, and reward the virtuous ministers, which prince will not be glad to join him?

"Besides, where is the ownership of the cities on the border between the two countries? Which country doesn't have such a thing? The battle between Lu and Ju for Yuncheng has been protracted for a long time, if there is a conflict between Baipu and Chu at this time, will the ministers of Chu sit idly by and let Baipu invade because of the convening of the army conference? I don't think that if the struggle between Lu and Ju does not harm their respective countries, they should no longer interfere. Put aside your troubles, reward the virtuous, and persuade people to be kind is the most important thing! ”

Bozhou Li immediately objected, saying: "Master's analogy is very inappropriate, if Baipu attacks Chu, of course Chu can defend itself." But Lu is not Chu, but Baipu.

"The punishment of the envoys for waging war during the alliance is a system that has been established in the time of King Cheng of Zhou, and it has been observed by all countries for hundreds of years, and we cannot set this precedent on the people of the Lu State. Besides, I heard that the attack of the Lu State was launched at a time when the Ju State was unprepared to participate in the alliance, and the sinister intentions of the Lu people, the contempt for the great powers, and the desecration of the alliance oath can be seen!

"If we don't crusade against the crimes of the Lu people, we are not rewarding the virtuous but condoning the evil! In the future, other princes will use this reason to start wars and desecrate the covenant at will, so why do they hold a conference to kill soldiers? What else is binding on the oath? Where is the prestige of a great power? The alliance leader does nothing, what else is it called? Therefore, the crimes of the Lu people must be investigated! ”

Wu Ju glanced at Wang Ziwei, and Wang Ziwei asked Zhao Wu to rest in the other room for a while. But then Wu Ju also "invited" Bozhou plough out, leaving only him and Wang Ziwei in the house. Wu Ju said: "I still agree with what Zhao Wu said. Uncle Sun Leopard is a well-known beloved, if he grew up in the Jin Kingdom, he can be comparable to Shihui and Luan Shu; Born in the country of Qi, it can be compared to Guan Yiwu and Bao Shuya. His prestige is probably higher than you and I can't imagine.

"Killing such a person, in addition to causing the attack of political enemies, the betrayal of the Lu State, the resentment of the princes, and the separation of the allies, I am afraid that it will not be beneficial to the master and the Chu State at all. The prestige of the state of Chu was high enough, and this prestige was not consolidated by killing the princes and ministers. Now we need to do something gentle and benevolent to appease the princes, otherwise the resentment of the princes towards the state of Chu can only be transformed into affiliation with the state of Jin, and then what is the use of the prestige of the state of Chu no matter how high it is?

"Zhao Wu took the initiative to come to Chuying to intercede, and the face of the adults has been earned enough; Adults use majesty to intimidate the princes, and use mercy to appease the princes, who in the world dares not to be convinced? Why set up enemies for yourself and push your allies to the Jin Kingdom?

"Besides, you know that Bozhou Plough is a smart man, and he can't see through such a simple truth? The reason why he did this is probably because of ulterior motives! ”

The last sentence went to Wang Ziwei's heart, and Wang Ziwei didn't know that Bozhou plough was Jia Ao's eyeliner placed by his side; But from this moment on, the extremely clever Wang Ziwei felt something strange (and the original intention of Bozhou Plough was only to please him), so he lost his trust in him, so that he finally killed him.

Wang Ziwei invited Zhao Wu back, agreed to his request, and asked Zhao Wu to forgive him for his recklessness. Wang Ziwei sent Zhao Wu away, personally rushed to the detention room to release Shusun Leopard, and praised Shusun Leopard in front of doctors from all over the world, and the doctors couldn't stop praising Wang Ziwei with various moods.

Then the prince set up a private banquet to entertain Zhao Wu, and his uncle accompanied him. The prince gathered around the banquet and gave the first chapter of "Da Ming": "Obviously below, Hehe is above." It's hard to be scared, and it's not easy to be a king. The heavenly position is Yin, so that the Quartet is not coerced. ”

Zhao Wu knew that Wang Ziwei had compared himself to the king of Chu, and he was now looking forward to his reaction to this matter.

Zhao Wu was shocked by his blatant ambition (Xue Ba's secrecy work was done in vain). Zhao Wu knew very well that a person who didn't even care about the monarch was fearless, and once Wang Ziwei seized the monarchy, the war would inevitably resume, and the great efforts made by the princes of the world over the years would all be scrapped; Therefore, he is not only a disaster for the Chu State, but also a disaster for the whole world.

Zhao Wu was deeply worried, so he replied with the second chapter of "Xiao Wan": "The Qi saint of people, drink Wenke." He didn't know it, and he was drunk and rich. Respect for the rites, the destiny is not! Zhao Wu tactfully and unceremoniously admonished Wang Ziwei: "A smart person can drink as calmly as usual; but the deaf will only eat and drink excessively; Please be cautious in your words and deeds, otherwise your destiny will not be blessed! ”

After the banquet, Zhao Wenzi said to Shu Xiang on the way back to the camp: "Ling Yin is going to establish himself as the king, do you think he can succeed?" ”

Shu Xiang said: "The king of Chu is weak, Ling Yin is strong, of course he can succeed." But although it can be done, it must not end well. The strong destroy the weak but have peace of mind, and the strong side is called 'unrighteousness'. Unrighteousness becomes powerful and will be destroyed quickly, so the poem says: 'Hehe Zongzhou, praise and destroy it.' Zheng Zhuanggong said: "If you are unjust, you will collapse." ’

"Ling Yin will seize the throne and must seek the support of the princes. If the Jin State behaves to be more tolerant, the princes are helpless and will go to the Chu State; Once the prince gets the princes, he will be tyrannical; The Chu people will be unbearable and will inevitably overthrow his rule. How could he get a good death? How can he last long when he triumphs with the strength of unrighteousness, and he must make unrighteousness a code of conduct, and act on it as a criterion called '**'? ”
