Yue Wang Gou Jian

Chapter 68 Tao Qiu

Fan Li picked up Gou Jian horizontally, led a war horse, jumped onto the horse's back, put Gou Jian in place, gave Fu Chai a slight nod, and rode off on the horse.

The Chu army behind them also covered Fan Li and Gou Jian to retreat together.

A Qingqi rode away along the winding official road, and disappeared around the corner.

But the young King Wu still stood there for a long time in the dust raised by the horseshoes, until the dust dispersed, and his eyes became clear, until the shadow of the setting sun completely disappeared into the mountain depression...

"So, since this is your choice, I will fulfill you."

Even though I was thinking this way, the position on the left side of my chest was so painful that I couldn't breathe.

A white carrier pigeon flew from the far southeast with fluttering wings, passed over the majestic and towering Nanshan Mountains, crossed the ebb and flow of the Qiantang River, and went straight to the layers of the Wu Palace from the sky above Gusu, the capital of Wu, which is full of traffic. Dianyu flew away, and finally stopped on the table in Longteng Palace.

Fu Chai, the king of Wu, put down the imperial pen in his hand, took off a roll of paper tied to the pigeon's leg, and spread it out, only to see that it read:

"The king of Yue has left the country of Yue and is missing!"

Wu Wangfu closed his fist abruptly, tightly held the note in his hand, stared straight ahead with his deep eyes, thoughtful.

These days, Fu Chai sent his most confidant red shadow guards to follow Gou Jian secretly. When he learned that Gou Jian's body was gradually recovering, Fu Chai's heart was slightly relieved.

He thought that he would desperately go to Yue country to capture that person back, but in the end, he held back.Since that person doesn't want to see him, why should he appear to displease him.It is enough to know that he is safe.

"He suddenly left Yue, where is he going?"

Fu Chai focused his eyes and thought, and suddenly a light flashed in his deep eyes, and an answer was ready to come out.

"Could it be that he is going to..."

"Report to Your Majesty, Mr. Wu asks to see you."

At this moment, the slightly shrill voice of the personal servant interrupted Fu Chai's meditation.

"Xuan!"

Fucha's voice said.

Since Goujian left the state of Wu, Wu Zixu has settled down a lot. In addition, he is quite in line with Fuchai's wishes in handling government affairs. He was treated with courtesy, and many important things were entrusted to him to arrange and plan.

Wu Zixu is a real gentleman, Bo Pi is a real villain.As a superior, Fu Chai sees this point more clearly than anyone else.Although it is difficult for Fu Chai to accept Wu Zixu in terms of personal feelings, Fu Chai has an extremely strong dependence on Wu Zixu in handling official affairs.

"See Your Majesty..."

Wu Zixu bowed slightly to King Wu and saluted.

"Wu Xiang is asking to see the widow at this time, and I don't know why?"

Fu Chai folded a book that had just been critiqued with the imperial pen, put it aside, lowered his eyes, did not look at Wu Zixu, and asked casually.

"My lord, I have been looking through the rubbings of Hetu Luoshu for a few days, and finally found some clues."

"Oh?"

After the movement in his hands paused, Fu Chai raised his eyes, and Wu Zixu's slightly excited expression was printed in his deep eyes.

Wu Zixu is a sophisticated and deep person, and his emotions are hidden very deeply, but at this moment, there is an unconcealable excitement naturally overflowing from his face. I'm afraid it's not as simple as just discovering a little clue, presumably he has completely deciphered Hetuluo Books hide important secrets.

Fu Chai stood up from the dragon chair involuntarily, crossed his hands behind his back, and kept his eyes on Wu Zixu's face, waiting for him to finish speaking.

"Your Majesty, please take a look..."

Wu Zixu took a few steps forward, and placed the river map and Luoshu's rubbings side by side on the table, pointing to the crooked lines on the river map with well-defined but slightly pale fingers:

"The curve drawn in this river map is very special. We can understand that the water flows all the way to the east. After flowing through three bends, it divides into two branches at a gorge, and then merges into a main river downstream..."

Wu Zixu's fingers were long and slender, and his nails were round and full. He followed the crooked line on the river map all the way down, talking to Fu Chai, his cloud-like hair fell down his shoulders, and his handsome eyebrows , faintly showing a trace of uncontrollable excitement, although it has passed the age of forty, but the fresh and refined posture on the body is the same as before.

In the past, Fu Chai didn't understand why the father was so obsessed with a man, and even abandoned his family and children for that man, but now he seems to understand.If Gou Jian's life was at stake or even if he was only slightly injured, he would go to him desperately.A matter of love, if you don't know its origin, you don't know what it is, it is difficult to control, how can you blame the father and king for what happened back then, and Wu Zixu is just a victim after all.

For some reason, such a thought suddenly flashed through Fu Chai's mind.

"Although this hydrological feature is very special, it is not very rare. If you examine the mountains, rivers and lakes in the world according to this map, it will be like finding a needle in a haystack. It is not easy."

After hearing Wu Zixu's description, Fu Chai sighed quietly.

"What your majesty said is very true. It is absolutely impossible to judge where the treasure is based on a river map alone, but please read this Luoshu..."

Wu Zixu pointed to the Luoshu rubbings, and said to Fucha,

"The Luoshu number book comes from the lower nine palaces, and uses the number 45 to represent the image of the stars. The nine palaces and eight winds map cooperate with the eight winds, eight trigrams, and the central one palace, which is the middle palace of Luoshu, is the core of the surrounding eight palaces."

As Wu Zixu said, he tapped his finger on the location of the palace in Luoshu and said,

"The ancients observed the celestial phenomena and believed that the position of Taiyi was always in the north, which could be used as a standard for positioning the center. Among the nine palaces in the Luoshu, the middle palace is the location of the treasure. In the past, during the time of Dayu, Luoyang Xiluo A tortoise emerged from the Luohe River in Ningxian County, carrying "Luoshu" on its back, and dedicated it to Dayu. Dayu succeeded in controlling the water, and then designated the world as Kyushu. Based on this, the nine chapters of Dafa were established, so the old officials guessed the Nine Palaces above Luoshu It corresponds to the Kyushu that Dayu divided in the past, and the location of the Zhonggong is in Jizhou, which is the land of Zhongzhou."

"What Prime Minister Wu imply is that the treasure is most likely hidden in Zhongzhou?"

Fu Chai rested his chin on one hand, lowered his eyes, looked at Luo Shu thinking for a long while and said,

"In the land of Zhongzhou, there are many vassal states such as Song State, Zheng State, Cao State, Zhongshan State, etc., and the one that has the image of Shuai's return is..."

Fu Chai seemed to think of something, raised his eyes suddenly, and looked straight at Wu Zixu, his deep eyes reflected Wu Zixu's slightly nodding expression.

The water will re-enter into the pan, and the flood will be divided into Jidu in the west, Yinjun in the northeast, south of Yinjun, and Hedu in the east.This is the knowledge from ancient books that Wu Zixu explained to Fu Chai when he was young.At that time, Fu Chai was only nine years old, and he had almost crazy admiration for this gentle, refined, well-read and knowledgeable Yafu.

"I almost like Yafu..."

"Yafu should never leave Cha'er..."

This is what Fu Chai used to say when he was a child. Perhaps it is precisely because he has unreserved trust in this person that he cannot accept this person's deceit and betrayal.

How much I liked it before, how much I hate it now...

But even though he was disgusted, deep in his consciousness he still did not forget the earnest teachings that this person gave him when he was a child. Every word he said seemed to be kept in his mind, and he could come at his fingertips.

"That's why the old minister infers that the treasures mentioned in the Hetu Luoshu should be in Taoqiu, which is west of Fangshan and south of Sishui."

When Fu Chai was in a daze, he heard Wu Zixu say something.

"So, this treasure is actually within the territory of Cao State."

Fucha thought for a while.

"exactly……"

Wu Zixu nodded slightly.

"Wu Xiang, inform General Sun Wu that the three of us will set off for Cao Guo at dawn tomorrow!"

Standing in front of the table, the young Wang bound his hands, his tall and stalwart figure carried a kind of domineering look at the world, and his razor-sharp face was resolute and courageous, just like the person in his memory.

"Yes, my king!"

The face of Wu Wang Fuchai in front of him quietly overlapped with the face of the previous king Helu in his memory, causing Wu Zixu to lose his mind for a moment.In my memory, the child who was only as high as my own waist, and who asked me countless "whys" with eyes as deep as a deep pool, has really grown up.

However, what Wu Zixu didn't notice was that there seemed to be a flash of light in Wu Wang Fucha's eyes...

So, you have already deciphered the secret of Hetu Luoshu, then, see you in Cao Guo!
