"I have ordered Quyang Hou Xingye to return to Yingdu!" King Huai of Chu said with a big wave of his hand!

"I intend to have Marquis Quyang preside over this alliance ceremony... What do you think?"

As soon as this statement came out, the court fell into silence for a moment - according to convention, all the ministers at this moment should object in unison...

But these days are different!

After Xiong Wuliang was awarded the Pingnan Sword, the old commander Yin Zhaoju seemed to feel that the situation was over, and had been claiming to be ill for several months. Under such a situation, the members of the Zhaoju Party were naturally in danger.

Actively looking for new thighs.

Let me ask you, who is the leader in Chu State today?

Excluding King Huai of Chu, it must be Xiong Wuliang, the Marquis of Quyang!

Those ministers who had established a relationship with Xiong Wuliang naturally actively cheered for the new and old leaders. As for those who had not surrendered to Xiong Wuliang in person, they would naturally not speak out against it at this moment.

After a moment of silence, the court became more harmonious than ever before!

"I think it is very appropriate for Marquis Quyang to preside over the alliance ceremony!"

"The Marquis of Quyang conquered Qi and attacked Qin, and his achievements were unparalleled..."

"Without Marquis Quyang, where would Da Chu's hegemony be today? I only obey the king's orders!"

"Your Majesty is wise and mighty! Qu Yanghou is the most suitable but not too spicy!"

For a time, the entire hall was filled with all kinds of rainbow farts towards Xiong Wuliang.

Compared with the previous few years, when the ministers whipped Xiong Wuliang whenever he was mentioned, it was a huge difference!

In fact, this is normal - after all, there are still a few people with real backbone, so such people will be praised by historians... The vast majority of ministers are ordinary people, and it is of course instinct to defect to the strong.

The old tree Zhaoju has fallen - if nothing else happens, as long as the current king dies, Xiong Wuliang will hold the Pingnan Sword and become the humerus minister of the new king... At that time, the old and new grudges will be settled together, Zhaoju

That old guy will definitely be tortured to death by Qu Yanghou.

Anyone who can see the situation clearly at this moment will spare no effort to board the unstoppable ship of Marquis Quyang!

Seeing that all the officials had no objections, King Huai of Chu couldn't help but clasped his hands and laughed, saying proudly: "My nephew Wu Liang is indeed a great talent in the country... If I hadn't been able to discipline him well, our country in Chu would have almost lost this great talent!"

Ministers: Your Majesty is right! ╮( ??w?? )╭

In such a joyful atmosphere, this court meeting was unprecedentedly harmonious... In the end, King Huai of Chu was delighted and cordially invited all the ministers to attend the dinner... which pushed the atmosphere to its peak.

…

The court meeting dispersed, and the officials left the hall together in twos and threes.

While they were looking forward to tonight's dinner, they were also speculating about the upcoming Yunmengze Alliance Ceremony.

Everyone spoke highly of Xiong Wuliang!

It seems that the Xiong Wuliang who was pointed and scolded by all the ministers back then is not the same person at all as the Xiong Wuliang who is praised to the sky by their rainbow farts now.

Only Prince Mi Heng's face was gloomy, and he was not immersed in the joy of "Chu is about to dominate the princes"... He seemed to be a little gloomy.

I don’t know what exactly I’m thinking about.

After Mi Heng returned to the Prince's Mansion, he dismissed all the servants and just sat in the backyard with a sullen face, drinking from jar after jar.

Until he was drunk and hazy, Mi Heng stood up suddenly, pulled out the sword from his waist, stabbed, chopped, and teased under the tree... The sword skills were thrown into pieces, and finally he threw the sword hard, and it made a 'clang'

It fell to the ground with a sound.

Mi Heng roared loudly, seeming to vent the resentment in his heart!

Until then, he suddenly saw a small greeting card on the ground. He couldn't help being startled, and then shouted angrily: "Who? Who is reading this prince's joke? Get out of here!"

There was silence all around.

Mi Heng rubbed his face, as if he had sobered up. He picked up the letter from the ground, opened it, and couldn't help but shrink his eyes——

'Your order, Yin Zhaoju, respectfully welcomes the Crown Prince to come to the house to have a talk.'

Mi Heng turned the letter over, only to find that it was completely blank - there was only the above-mentioned sentence on the entire letter.

Ling Yin Zhaoju?

Mi Heng's eyes gradually cleared up - wasn't Ling Yin Zhaoju seriously ill? How could it be... If he was invited to go to Zhao Mansion, he only needed to send someone to inform him, so why use such sneaky methods?

Could it be that there are some secret words that cannot be revealed to others?

The next day, a light carriage drove out of the Prince's Mansion. It swayed here and there in the market, made several large circles, and then slowly turned into the "Zhao Mansion".

…

Prince Mi Heng stepped down from the chariot - the current Zhaofu is really deserted to the extreme!

A few months ago, the Ling Yin Mansion was packed with people, and the carriage yard was filled with five-foot or even six-foot luxurious chariots. Even if the ministers of the Chu State did not come here for work, they would go there from time to time.

Come for a visit and try to become familiar with this powerful minister.

How majestic the Zhaofu was at that time!

But since Xiong Wuliang was awarded the Pingnan Sword, the Zhao Mansion has become deserted as never before - the horse racing farm is no longer crowded, and officials at all levels seem to be avoiding the mansion intentionally or unintentionally.

The reason is very simple - Zhaoju and Quyanghou are in the same position, which is not a secret in Chu State.

The fact that King Chu Huai gave Xiong Wu Liangping Nanjian was an extremely obvious political signal - maybe King Chu Huai was stupid and didn't mean anything... but the officials had already sensed the sudden change.

In this case, all rational people will desperately try to hug Xiong Wuliang's thick legs; for Zhaoju, they will avoid it like the plague.

Zhaoju himself seemed to have accepted his fate and never recovered from his illness...seemingly waiting for death quietly.

Everyone who knows the grudges between Zhaoju and Xiong Wuliang will sigh softly and comment quietly - I hope Zhaoju can die quickly. If he can die in front of the king, maybe the Zhao family can still be preserved...

Mi Heng straightened his body, looked at the vaguely visible spider web at the gate of the 'Zhao Mansion', and fell into deep thought for a moment.

"Greetings to the prince... The patriarch has specially ordered me to pick up the prince... Please follow me this way." A seemingly smart boy appeared next to Mi Heng and said.

Mi Heng came to his senses and said, "Lead the way."

…

Zhaoju was waiting early by a lotus pond in the mansion - it was early summer, the lotus flowers had already revealed their buds, and the large green lotus leaves were swaying in the breeze, which was very beautiful.

Mi Heng glanced at it, feeling a little confused - how could they meet in a place like this?

Soon he realized again - compared with indoors, talking by the lotus pond was very safe, at least there was no need to worry about ears on the partition wall.

It seems that we are really going to talk about something big this time!

Mi Heng came to Zhaoju and stared at the latter quietly without saying a word.

Zhaoju bowed deeply to Mi Heng, with a calm expression on his face, as if what he was seeing was not a secret meeting: "Old minister, I would like to pay my respects to the young master——"
