Pirates: Be the Master from the East China Sea

Hearing Ye Yuan personally say that he wanted to return to his country, the King of Chu couldn't help but feel depressed. If he was really allowed to leave with injuries like this, it would be difficult for Chu and Yue to establish diplomatic relations. He quickly said: "Prince Yue, please rest assured. I will definitely redouble my protection and take heavy precautions, and I will never let the prince get hurt again!"

Ye Yuan smiled and said casually: "So regarding the Chu State sending troops to assist the Wu State, what is King Chu's plan?"

The King of Chu sighed slightly and said: "To be honest, I have already intended to send troops, but the opposition in the country is too loud, and I really want to offend the public..."

Ye Yuan frowned and said, "So you plan to watch the Wu Kingdom fall?"

The King of Chu sighed: "I know this matter cannot be delayed, but my pressure is really great, and even if the Wu Kingdom is annexed by the Northern Wei Dynasty, their strength will definitely be damaged. By then, our Chu and Yue countries will share the same hatred, and it may not really be true." It will allow them to succeed..."

Ye Yuan finally understood what King Chu had in mind, and couldn't help but smile coldly and said: "But King Chu should understand that without Wu as a barrier, our two countries' domains will be directly involved in the war, and the chance of winning is relatively lower. "

The King of Chu sighed: "I understand all this, I just hate that those ministers are so ignorant..."

Ye Yuan said: "If King Chu is worried about this matter, I have a strategy that may be able to silence those ministers temporarily and solve the so-called public anger problem."

The King of Chu said with great interest: "I have heard that Prince Yue is very resourceful. Please tell me in detail."

Ye Yuan no longer hesitated and explained his arrangements in detail. King Chu nodded repeatedly and couldn't help but praise: "It is indeed a clever plan. Prince Yue is really a genius!"

Ye Yuan held Jiang Rou's catkin in his arms and just smiled faintly.

King Chu turned his head to look at Ye Gong and said, "What do you think of the strategy Prince Yue just mentioned?"

Ye Gong looked at Ye Yuan and said with profound meaning: "This plan echoes back and forth, it is perfect. When Prince Yue attended my king's banquet, he must have already reached this point, right?"

Ye Yuan cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Ye is indeed a wise man."

Ye Gong narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a smile: "So Prince Yue has already expected the encounter with the assassin, right?"

Ye Yuan sighed: "Although I took precautions, unfortunately I was still injured by those assassins."

Of course he would not admit that his injuries were fake, as that would only make him lose the initiative in the negotiations with the King of Chu. His coming here would ultimately mean diplomatic relations between the two countries, and of course he would have to fight for the interests of Vietnam.

Ye Gong smiled, stopped asking, and said: "The strategy that Prince Yue just mentioned is still feasible in my humble opinion. Then we will leave now and ask the prince to rest in peace and recover from his injuries. We will leave the matter of sending troops to aid the state of Wu to us." , King Chu will not let you down."

Ye Yuan cupped his hands and saw Mr. Ye and King Chu exiting the room.

Jiang Rou helped Ye Yuan lie down, then covered him with a thin quilt, gently tapped the tip of his nose, and said with a gentle smile: "You are an injured person now, so you must take a good rest."

Ye Yuan smiled and said: "Don't you know best whether I am injured or not?"

Jiang Rou hummed shyly and turned around, not daring to talk to him again. She was afraid that the other party would say something embarrassing again. She took off the old blood-stained gauze and walked out of the room, closing the door gently. .

She walked out of the room and found Mr. Ye waiting for her: "Girl, please stay."

Jiang Rou quickly saluted and said, "Sir, what are your orders?"

Ye Gong said: "Can I borrow the old gauze that the girl replaced?"

Jiang Rou was a little confused, but still handed the old gauze to the other party.

Ye Gong took out some silver coins and said with a kind smile: "Here are twenty gold coins. Please ask the girl to keep this matter a secret from Prince Yue."

When Jiang Rou saw the gold, her eyes couldn't help but light up, and she quickly agreed to Ye Gong's request. Then she took the gold with some joy and carefully put it in her purse.

Seeing her expression like this, Mr. Ye couldn't help but feel relieved.

After Ye Gong left, Jiang Rou quickly turned around and walked to the room, gently opened the door, and then said in surprise: "Your Highness, you are so amazing, that Ye Gong really wants to take away that piece of gauze!"

Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Then how did he bribe you?"

Jiang Rou sat beside his bed and said with a smile: "Twenty gold is really a lot of money!"

Ye Yuan pinched the tip of her small and delicate nose and said with a smile: "Little money fan."

Jiang Rou thought about this and asked with some confusion: "But why did Mr. Ye take away the gauze and look so mysterious?"

Ye Yuan said with a smile: "He must be looking for someone to check whether the gauze is human blood. Then King Chu will be able to talk to me without having to lower his head. Since I used the trick of pretending to be injured, I will say in the future The words don’t carry that much weight.”

Jiang Judao: "In this case, they will definitely be very disappointed, because it is indeed human blood."

Ye Yuan's expression darkened, and he sighed slightly: "Yes, it's Han Yue's blood..."

In the Chu State Council Hall, all the important officials gathered together.

They all looked nervous. They had already heard the news about Ye Yuan's assassination. It was said that the other party had planned to leave Chu as soon as possible. At this time, the king of Chu summoned the ministers, obviously to make the final decision whether it was true or not. He wanted to send troops to assist the state of Wu.

The ministers were divided into two factions and quarreled with each other.

When Ling Yin Zixi saw that everyone was arguing, he said according to the previous arrangement: "I have received news that in fact, half a month ago, the Northern Wei Dynasty sent an envoy to visit the Yue Kingdom quietly, and then returned home with satisfaction."

As soon as this statement came out, the officials couldn't help but change their expressions.

The King of Chu looked solemn and said: "Could it be that the Northern Wei Dynasty and the Yue Kingdom are already preparing to unite, so why did the Yue Prince Wujiang come to our country to seek help for the Wu Kingdom?"

Zixi shook his head and said: "This news has been strictly blocked by the Yue State. The ministers have not been able to find out the details, but there is no doubt that the Northern Wei Dynasty and the Yue State have had some kind of contact. But it is obviously only possible for the Northern Wei Dynasty envoys to visit the Yue State. There is an intention, that is, to unite with the Yue Kingdom on Wu Chu’s side as an auxiliary, and wait for an opportunity to swallow up Wu and Chu.”

Sima Ziqi said cautiously: "If what Mr. Zixi said is correct, then I have a guess."

The King of Chu quickly said: "My beloved, please tell me."

Zi Qi said: "Although the Northern Wei Dynasty wanted to join forces with the Yue State, they came to invade the Qin State after all. They have ulterior motives and are hard to trust. The Crown Prince of Yue may want to test our Chu State's reputation because of this. If our country is willing to send troops to rescue Wu, then our three countries will We can form an alliance to jointly deal with the Northern Wei Dynasty, otherwise we will defect to the Northern Wei Dynasty..."

Cai Er snorted coldly: "You talk nonsense, what evidence do you have?"

Zi Qi sneered and said: "If Prince Yue wanted to join forces with Chu State to fight against the Northern Wei Dynasty, he would definitely not be so arrogant and rude. It was obviously because we gave him a blow when he came to visit, which made him angry, so he targeted us everywhere. Our country is ready to turn around and join the Northern Wei Dynasty!"

His analysis was so accurate that the officials couldn't help but nod their heads.

The King of Chu sighed: "If the Northern Wei Dynasty really joins forces with the Yue State, then we will be attacked from both sides. Once the Wu State is divided by them, how can we, the Chu State, be lucky?"
