Chapter 102 The old hatred is hard to disappear
The ambitious Wang Shuchu Daxing finally felt relieved after receiving Nie Wushuang's full guarantee. It was from this moment that he rushed towards the direction of seizing the throne with unswerving determination.
Chu Daxing was cunning and cunning, so it was naturally not so easy to deceive. After thinking about it in his mind, he realized that Nie Wushuang did not deceive him on this issue. Because the current situation in the world is very obvious, for the King of Qin, destroying Zhao State would not be of much benefit to him.
No matter from which direction, Qin and Zhao are bound to each other. The two countries are separated by Shu and Wei. If Zhao perished, the biggest beneficiary is not Qin but Wei! The military strength and comprehensive national strength of Wei are only slightly inferior to Qin. If the King of Wei gets a large tract of land in Zhao, it will be really a big bourgeoisie. For Qin, it will be harmful but not beneficial.
On the other hand, even if Qin State was able to obtain the land of Zhao State when it was divided after this military victory, it was just an "enclave". Such a piece of land hanging outside the territory of Qin State was like a chicken rib, tasteless to eat, and it would be a pity to abandon it. Moreover, under the eye of other countries, they had to divide powerful troops to garrison. It might not necessarily happen again when war would happen, but would become a burden.
Any strategist can predict such a practical situation, let alone the talented and magnificent Qin King Nie Feng. Since Qin did not want to occupy the land of Zhao, of course, it would not allow other countries to get involved. Therefore, after listening to Nie Wushuang's words, Chu Daxing immediately made a decision. As long as he could successfully realize his ambitions with the help of Qin, he would be willing to give half of the country's financial resources to Qin as a reward.
A conspiracy was achieved quietly. Nie Wushuang and the Shangui General who followed him into Longcheng secretly lurked in this royal residence, while resting his body at peace, while waiting for an opportunity, preparing to kill with one blow.
Nie Wushuang already hated Chu Jiangmian in his heart. Not only did he let him taste the taste of failure that he had never seen before for the first time, but it also severely hit his pride and conceit. If he could not kill Chu Jiangmian with his own hands, he would not know if he would form a demon in his heart, and his cultivation would never be improved in the future.
"Chu Jiangmian, I must repay the wounds you left to me ten times a hundred times on you! I hope that when the army arrives at the city soon, you will never ask for forgiveness when you become a prisoner!"
As for his promise to Wang Shuchu Daxing, Nie Wushuang smiled coldly. Since ancient times, his soldiers have never been tired of deceitful deception and each showed their own plans! He only promised him that the Qin army would not attack Longcheng, but there was no guarantee that other princely troops would not go straight in! When the eldest son of Zhao, Chu Liangsheng, led the Southern Han naval army to the river, it would have nothing to do with Qin!
Chu Daxing and Nie Wushuang, who had their own thoughts, were also full of confidence. Chu Qingyun, who had just returned to Longcheng a few days ago, was obviously not ready for his path to kingdom. Since he walked out of Jinxiang Palace, he began to prepare and plan nervously.
As an adult young master of Zhao, Chu Qingyun, like Chu Liangsheng, has his own mansion. Although he has not come back to live in several years, all the housekeepers, servants, etc., as well as various decorations, are available.
However, after he came back this time, the servants immediately dismissed the servants in the mansion according to his order. The reason they said to them was that during the funeral of King Zhao, the young master was sad and needed to be alone and quietly remember and meditate. The deadline for everyone was to wait until the funeral of the king was over.
No one dared to say anything about the master's order. As the people in the mansion dispersed, a huge mansion soon became quiet. The servants who followed Prince Qingyun back from Liaodong County immediately controlled the entire mansion. These two, three hundred people were the confidants Chu Qingyun had trained in the past few years, and they had all sworn loyal to the new master. This time they came back to help him achieve that goal.
The rain, which had been falling for several days, finally stopped. Chu Qingyun sat on the rockery pavilion, and gently stroked the long knife that had been with him for several years with his hands. Several confidant servants were whispering to him that they had collected from all over the past two days.
Although the main forces of Wang Ting, led by Wang Shuchu Daxing and Shangdafu Zizhong, have expressed their support for him. But Chu Qingyun knew very well that such support was not reliable. What did the guys who pushed him out to achieve his best interests, even if he couldn't know all of them, he could guess a little bit.
"At the critical moment, we still need our own strength! Although you have worked hard these two days, you must not relax. Wang Ting's main characters have sent someone to keep a close eye on me. Once there is any abnormal movement, come back and tell me immediately... Especially in the Fushou Palace, you must be vigilant at all times! But you must not make irreversible mistakes because of a slight negligence."
Hearing his harsh commands, the servants nodded repeatedly. Everyone had a desire for glory and wealth. Since the moment they swore allegiance to this young master in the wind and sand on the block, everyone has been betting on life and death. This time when they returned to Longcheng, if they succeeded, they would be wealth and honor. Once they failed, no one could escape alive!
"Young Master, just rest assured! The skills that brothers have learned in the life-and-death battle with the Hu people in the north are not just for the sake of seeing! No matter what the price is paid, they will definitely help the young master achieve his wish."
"Yes, young master! Just be prepared with peace of mind. Just wait to ascend the throne at that time. As for other things, brothers will naturally prepare them... The eldest son Liang Sheng has been staying in the door and has no other power to support him, so he will not pose any threat to the young master any more. As for Chu Jiangmian, he has been betrayed by everyone now. What tricks can he do when he stays in the Fushou Hall?"
Looking at the confidence of these powerful subordinates, Chu Qingyun frowned. These guys always made him feel a little worried about doing things! They are all used to fighting on the battlefield. It may be no problem to chop people with a knife, but is it okay to stir up the storm in this Dragon City?
"Don't just look at Chu Jiangmian, but also pay attention to the queen's side! That woman must not be careless. She may have a very powerful force in her hand...!"
"Young Master is a little worried. When the king was there, of course others were a little afraid of her. But now, who will still obey her orders? A woman trapped in the deep palace, haha! Didn't the young master always hate her? When the time is right, we will naturally catch her and let her deal with it!"
Unlimited hatred arose in Chu Qingyun's eyes. Speaking of the queen, he missed his mother again. The brothers were right. He never forgot the hatred in his heart over the years. He hated King Chulie of Zhao, but also Queen Jiang Xin! These two people were the culprits who killed their mothers, and he vowed that he would never forgive them.
"Hmph! I will naturally settle this account with her... By the way, I heard that veteran Zheng Liancheng and Gou Wuxiu entered the Fushou Hall together, but have not come out yet. Have you ever heard of what they are doing?"
Chu Qingyun suddenly remembered this incident and asked quickly. Although the two old guys were no longer in the army, their influence should not be underestimated. If they really stood up, many generals and schoolmen in the army might have abnormal movements.
"They are all so old that the young master needs to worry about? I thought they would just go in and cry to the king. Maybe they would scold Chu Jiangmian in anger. It would not affect the overall situation!"
Several confidant servants didn't care about these two veterans. Chu Qingyun thought about it and thought that what everyone said was very reasonable. Not to mention that they had withdrawn from the army for many years, even if they still had some influence now, what's the use? The Zhao army was all resisting the enemy's attack in all directions. Near Longcheng, there was only the Dragon Cavalry left to guard the Dragon Cavalry. The Dragon Cavalry never obeyed the orders of King Zhao, and others could not command them at all.
After King Zhao's death, the only country who can exert influence on the Dragon Cavalry now was disheartened and ignored everything. The remaining role of the Dragon Cavalry seemed to be able to defend inside and outside the Dragon City, but he would not care much about what happened in the royal family.
After analyzing these situations, Chu Qingyun couldn't help but feel that with the elite strength of the two or three hundred people in his hand, he was enough to protect him to sit on the throne safely. And now what they need to wait is the arrival of that moment. Fortunately, they don't need to wait too long. There are only six or seven days at most when the coffin of King Zhao is buried. He has been waiting for more than ten years, so what does it matter if he waits for these days!
"After I ascend to the throne, I will definitely reward you according to my original promise! At that time, no matter whether you want to be a general or a minister in the royal court, as long as you have that ability, you will get what you wish... And in the near future, I will personally lead you to rush to 100,000 troops to defeat all the enemies attacking Zhao State. I want all the people of Zhao State to see with their own eyes that their new king is definitely no worse than Chu Lie!"
Chu Qingyun drew his sword and pointed at the sky and swore generously. The servants who were loyal to him bowed together to fulfill their promises, and the joys were thunderous.
