No correction

When the black-armored warrior from Chu rushed in just now, everyone was too busy fearing. They didn’t see clearly who the leading black-armored warrior was. Besides, no one would have imagined that a majestic monarch would pretend to be Chu Chinese soldiers rushed into the hall.

Among the people present, many envoys and monarchs knew Qihou, and Qihou stayed in Chu for a period of time, so the officials of Chu also knew Qihou.

As soon as the black-armored warrior raised his head, not only Prince Li was startled, but everyone was also startled. They opened their mouths wide and let out a silent exclamation.

Prince Li yelled: "You?!"

Immediately said: "This... this is impossible!"

As he spoke, he yelled sharply: "What are you doing in a daze!? If you don't give up, arrest them! Arrest them all!"

After Prince Li shouted, there was no movement at all, and the hall became quiet. Those black-armored warriors held their long swords but did not move, standing upright like sculptures.

Prince Li was even more frightened and shouted: "What are you doing?! What are you doing in a daze?! Are you idiots?! Kill them! Catch them all for me! Catch them!!"

He shouted, but there was still no movement. Wu Jiu smiled at this moment, and seemed not in a hurry, more like a bystander.

Prince Li Wang felt that he was being ridiculed by Wu Jiu, his eyes were wide open, and he was panting heavily. At this moment, he heard the sound of "tattling" footsteps, and a young man in an official robe walked in from outside. .

This young man was in his early 20s, and even Wu Jiu, a man in his thirties who was up and down in the officialdom, was still a child, let alone a young man who had just reached the crown and was just an adult in ancient times.

The young man looked very inconspicuous at first glance, and he couldn't tell it when he was thrown in the crowd. His forehead was a little big, his eyes were a little small, and the bridge of his nose was quite high, but the tip of his nose was a little pointed, and it was pressed down. She has a very mean face, and her lips are a little thin.

However, this person was smiling, and there was an amazing feeling when he smiled, it was Pan Chong.

Pan Chong walked in from the outside. As soon as Prince Li saw Pan Chong, he immediately shouted, "Pan Chong!! What's going on?! Why are your soldiers disobedient!"

Pan Chong said in surprise: "What? Disobedient? This is impossible. Chong's team is the most well-trained team in the palace of the Manchu King. Don't you believe it? Chong then come and try."

As he spoke, he immediately fixed his smile, narrowed his eyes, and immediately shouted: "I, a warrior of the Chu Kingdom, obey orders!"

As soon as he finished speaking, those black-armored warriors immediately shouted: "Yes!"

The voices were uniform, wishing to lift the roof of Lu's palace and soar into the sky, it was very shocking.

Pan Chong said sharply: "Catch these traitors together!"

After Pan Chong finished speaking, the black-armored warriors immediately started to move. Before the doctors of Chu Guoqing who were kneeling on the ground could see clearly what was going on, they heard a "Hula", and the black-armored warriors rushed over.

Baoshen was so frightened that his face paled. This seemed to be beyond Baoshen's expectation. Baoshen shouted: "What are you doing?! Are you going to commit a crime?!"

He shouted, but was still detained by the black armored warrior.

Prince Li Wang seemed to know martial arts, "Bang!!" He broke free from the shackles of a black-armored warrior, turned around and wanted to escape, "Chi!", suddenly a sword was on Prince Li Wang's neck.

Prince Li was startled, and turned his head to see that it was Qihou in black armor. Qihou held a sword and rested it on his neck leisurely, and said with a smile: "The enthronement ceremony of the new king of Chu is not over yet. , where is the honored guest going?"

Prince Li was well aware of Marquis Qi's martial arts skills, so he didn't dare to act rashly, his face was covered with ashes, he stared at the smiling Pan Chong, and shouted: "Pan Chong!!! You treacherous villain!"

Pan Chong cupped his hands and said humbly: "You are serious. Although Pan Chong is a villain, he has the foresight and knows how to abandon the dark and turn to the bright."

When he said this, Prince Li and Baoshen's faces were full of despair. It was really Pan Chong who betrayed them.

At this time, Wu Jiu was smiling, stretched out his hand to straighten his black sleeve robe, and said: "My lords, my envoys, today's enthronement ceremony, thank you all for watching a lively scene, and many rats were caught. Really appreciate it.”

When everyone heard this, some were surprised, some admired, and some looked nervous and scared.

This matter began when Pan Chong came to ask Wu Jiu to surrender before the sacrificial ceremony.

That day Pan Chong came to Wu Jiu to reveal his identity. Pan Chong was a small captain in the Chu Palace. His status was not high, but because his team was well-trained, he was selected by Baoshen.

That day Pan Chong approached Wu Jiu and told him that Baoshen had met the emperor's envoy and had received a volume of documents, but Pan Chong didn't know what the content of the document was.

Although Pan Chong didn't know the content of the document, he probably knew what Baoshen was going to do. After all, Baoshen wanted to use his army and ordered Pan Chong to kidnap Marquis Qi.

Pan Chong explained Baoshen's plan, including Prince Li.

When King Wu of Chu succeeded to the throne, he announced that he had killed Prince Li. Who knew that Prince Li actually escaped and fled to other countries.

The State of Zhou has always been a refuge for the vassal states to flee, because everyone dare not really go to the State of Zhou, and Prince Li actually fled to the Luo Division of the State of Zhou.

The state of Chu has become more and more powerful in recent years. Because of his age, Prince Li is also unable to do what he wants, and has no ambition to fight at all, so he rests in Luoshi's nest and prepares for retirement.

Prince Li did not want to usurp the throne, but later he received news from the emperor Hu Qi, who told him that the opportunity came and he could cooperate with Baoshen. As long as he cooperates with Baoshen, he can regain the throne, because Prince Li is also an orthodox Chu's blood, so it is not usurpation.

When Prince Li heard that this plan was very good, he agreed to Hu Qi's opinion, was escorted by Hu Qi, and secretly went to Chu State.

So how did Prince Li enter Chu?In fact, it was very simple, Prince Li got mixed up in Lu Guohexi's team, walked in dignifiedly, no one stopped him at all.

Prince Baoshenli had the same plan. They wanted to drag Wu Jiu off the throne when he ascended the throne, but they had nothing important to threaten Wu Jiu, so Baoshen fell in love with him. Qi Hou.

Marquis Qi sent Wu Jiu to Chu with an army of [-]. It can be seen that he cares about Wu Jiu very much, and since Wu Jiu entered the palace, he let Marquis Qi live in the small bedroom, so Baoshen could see that Wu Jiu and Wu Jiu lived together. The relationship between Marquis Qi and Marquis Qi is not ordinary, so it is very appropriate to use Marquis Qi to threaten Wu Jiu.

So Baoshen planned to hijack Marquis Qi. Because Pan Chong did not cooperate with Zuo Sima to ambush Wu Jiu on the banquet road, Baoshen suspected him for a while and punished him heavily.

Pan Chong is a smart man, he knows that Baoshen's life is exhausted, and there is no future to talk about following Baoshen, so Pan Chong secretly comes to surrender, and plays a good Mission: Impossible show with Wu Jiu.

Pan Chong told Wu Jiu that Baoshen was going to kidnap Marquis Qi on the day of the sacrifice, why was it the day of the sacrifice?Because Wu Jiu had to go to sacrifice on the day of the sacrifice, and Qihou was not from Chu, so he must not be able to attend. Therefore, when there was no one around Qihou, he was kidnapped.

At that time, Baoshen didn't trust Pan Chong anymore, so he sent others to kidnap Marquis Qi, but they couldn't find Marquis Qi at all, Marquis Qi had already disguised himself as a bodyguard and followed the team to sacrifice.As a result, the original plan to kidnap Qihou was about to fail, but at this time Pan Chong went to tell Baoshen that he saw Qihou secretly disguised as a bodyguard, and his plan had changed. Can do meritorious service.

Pan Chong was trusted by Baoshen again because of the informant, and successfully "caught" Marquis Qi. Baoshen was very happy and began to reuse Pan Chong again.

However, Baoshen and Prince Li didn't know that Pan Chong was actually a double agent. He did capture Qihou. Everyone saw it with their own eyes. Baoshen and Prince Li are just wary.In fact, Marquis Qi just hid up these days and didn't see anyone, just waiting for the day of the enthronement ceremony, these rats would run out and catch them all.

Wu Jiu originally wanted to wipe out all these rats before the enthronement ceremony, but Pan Chong said no, Prince Li was used to being afraid, these things were presided over by Baoshen, and Prince Li seldom showed up, even Pan Chong Having never met him a few times, Pan Chong had no way to catch Prince Li before the enthronement ceremony.

There are also Baoshen's gangsters. Baoshen's gangsters are intricate. Pan Chong didn't have a detailed list. If he only caught one Baoshen, there would still be endless troubles.

Therefore, Pan Chong suggested to Wu Jiu to perform a play for them at the enthronement ceremony, so as to deter the princes and catch the rats in the court without any loss.

With the cooperation of Pan Chong and Marquis of Qi, Pan Chong was very shrewd, wandering around as a spy, with a look of ease, Baoshen and Prince Li not only did not doubt him, but trusted him even more, because Pan Chong had meritorious service in arresting Zhu Qihou Therefore, Baoshen ordered Pan Chong's team to surround the palace on the day of the enthronement ceremony, and to kill chickens and monkeys whenever there was trouble.

Pan Chong indeed surrounded Lu's palace, but he is not listening to Baoshen and Prince Li, but Wu Jiu, the new king of Chu.

Only Wu Jiu and Marquis Qi knew about Pan Chong's plan, and Pan Chong himself was the rest. , In fact, it is to distract Baoshen's attention.

Sure enough, Baoshen was very proud, and came to provoke him twice and three times, not knowing that he had been tricked. Wu Jiu said that Marquis Qi was an acting school, but in fact, Wu Jiu's acting skills soared, even he was afraid...

Now Pan Chong's team surrounded the main hall of the Lu Palace, but Baoshen and Prince Li didn't know that Pan Chong was no longer one of them.

Pan Chong ordered to arrest people, all the scholar-bureaucrats stood up scramblingly, afraid of being arrested, but the black-armored warriors moved quickly, and arrested all those who were kneeling on the ground just now.

The princes were a little confused for a while, they didn't expect that just as they wanted to watch a good show, the wind turned one-sided, and Wu Jiao came to control the field, which surprised people.

Most of the princes have nothing to do with themselves. Before it was nothing to do with themselves, it was a good show to watch, but now it is just thinking about things that have nothing to do with themselves. Fortunately, they did not make trouble just now, but just watched for a while.

And the most nervous one belongs to Lu Gong, because in the whole plan, there is also Lu Gong’s participation. If it weren’t for Lu Gong, Prince Li would have no way to enter the state of Chu. The method was passed to Baoshen, so Lu Guo is also a very important person, and his face was very pale at this time, trying to reduce his sense of existence and shrinking behind the crowd.

Prince Li's face was pale, he didn't have much fighting spirit at all, and even more so when Qi Hou put his sword on his neck, his arrogance was wiped out just now, "Gudong!" How about it, really knelt down to Wu Jiao.

Prince Li changed his arrogant tone and said, "Your Majesty! You and I are blood brothers! It's not my fault that I was just deceived! Your Majesty, you have to trust me, it's Baoshen! Baoshin!"

Baoshen had already been caught by the black-armored warrior. Hearing that Prince Li blamed himself for all the faults, he said sharply, "It's not me! Why is it me! It's obviously Duke Lu!"

The ball was kicked too fast and hit Lu Gong on the face in an instant. Lu Gong stood in the crowd and wanted to take the opportunity to sneak out of the hall, but the hall was already surrounded, and it was the result of their own doings, and there was no way to escape.

Duke Lu tried his best to reduce his sense of existence, but suddenly he was called on by someone, and everyone cast their gazes in the direction of "Shua!", and the envoys and monarchs around Duke Lu all moved away, as if they were afraid of being implicated by Duke Lu.

Duke Lu's expression changed in an instant, and he said, "What's the matter with you, Chu State, with my Lu State? Don't swear!"

Prince Li said: "It's Duke Lu! It's Duke Lu! He asked me to follow his team into Chu!"

Duke Lu's face became even more ugly, and he said, "Bold thief! You want to frame our country of Lu just because your scandal is exposed? Don't be rude! Our country of Lu is also a big country, how could you humiliate me!"

Lu Gong was really clean, but Wu Jiu was smiling and watching them bite the dog.

Baoshen immediately said: "I was deceived, and I was just confused for a moment. I beg the king to forgive me! I have evidence. All this is because the King of Zhou and Duke Lu deceived me. I was just confused for a while!"

When he said that, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, what's going on?And also dragged out the emperor?

Duke Lu yelled, "What nonsense are you talking about!?"

Baoshen immediately said, "I'm not talking nonsense! I have evidence!"

As he spoke, he actually took out a piece of lambskin from his sleeve. Duke Lu almost fainted when he saw it. It was a letter written by the emperor to Baoshen. When he dropped the letter, he didn't know that Baoshen had been careful and found a way out for himself.

Baoshen took out the letter and handed it to Wu Jiu tremblingly. Wu Jiu squinted his eyes, reached out to pick up the letter, opened it, and then laughed, and said, "Let me ask you, gentlemen, to see if this is the son of heaven." notes."

Wu Jiu passed on the letter, and soon there was a commotion in the hall, many monarchs and envoys came, all of whom had seen the emperor's notes, after seeing it like this, there was a commotion immediately, and it turned into a dish In the market, everyone can't believe it.

What was written in that letter was very explicit. Hu Qi was afraid of the strength of Wu Jiu and Qi State. If Wu Jiu ascended the throne, joining hands with Qi State would definitely threaten Master Luo. Moreover, Wu Jiu and Qi State both had black powder, so First, it was even more dangerous, so Hu Qi secretly contacted Baoshen, hoping that Baoshen would cooperate with him to assassinate Wu Jiu together.

Hu Qi's face is all written in this letter, can the princes not click their tongues after reading it?

Although if Chu and Qi are united, many countries will be afraid and jealous, but even if Chu is a foreigner, Qi is the feudal state of Zhou. Although Qi has been powerful these years, in terms of respect for the king, no one is better than Qi Hou. He is more active, so Qi State can't find reason. Hu Qi framed Qi State in this way, and the princes are all chilled and in danger.

The princes thought of it, if they were stronger, they would be so feared and killed, who would dare to be loyal to the emperor?

Everyone was bustling, Wu Jiu coughed twice at this time, and said: "Everyone, the authenticity of this document has yet to be verified. I will send envoys to Luoshi as soon as possible to meet with the king of Zhou and ask about it." The authenticity of this document."

Wu Jiu said it very politely, but in fact he sent someone to question Hu Qi.

Hearing what he said, Baoshen immediately said: "My king! This letter is true! It is true! Baoshen dare not lie! Baoshen is loyal to our state of Chu, but it was only a moment of confusion that he believed Zhou Guo and Lu. country's slander, please me Wang Mingjian! Please me Wang Kaien!"

Duke Lu wanted to get rid of the relationship, but just as he was about to quibble, Wu Jiu said with a smile at this time: "I have invited the State of Lu since I ascended the throne, but Duke Lu has ulterior motives and even brought traitors from our State of Chu into the palace. Duke Lu is so disrespectful, don't blame the widow for not giving you face..."

He said, paused, and said in a deep voice: "Come here, throw Duke Lu and the envoys of the Kingdom of Lu out!"

As soon as his words fell, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay. Lu Guo was taken aback, unable to save face, and said, "How dare you!?"

Wu Jiu smiled and said, "Will you take a look?"

As he spoke, Pan Chong immediately waved his hand to signal the soldiers to obey orders, and several black-armored warriors drew their swords to face each other.

Just now Duke Lu wanted to sneak away, but now the soldiers are pushing him away, Duke Lu doesn't want to leave just because of face, but those soldiers really did something and kicked Duke Lu and the envoys of Lu Kingdom out of the hall.

So many courtiers, princes and envoys in the hall watched the excitement one after another, pointing fingers at the people of Lu country, Duke Lu's face was about to boil, but he was so angry that he had no choice but to snort coldly, shake his sleeves and leave.

Throwing out envoys is something that other countries have done before, and it’s actually not a big deal, but throwing out the king is something that other countries would never dare to do. Wu Jiao is the new king of Chu, and even If you dare to do this, everyone will be even more jealous.

When Baoshen saw it, he quickly kowtowed and said, "My king, the old minister is wrong! The old minister is wrong! Please spare my life! For the sake of the old minister's loyalty for so many years, bypass the old minister!"

Wu Jiu looked down at Baoshen, who was dressed in a black court robe, making him look tall and slender, squinting his eyes, and said lightly, "Baoshen, I won't kill you..."

When he said that, Baoshen seemed to be relieved, and Wu Jiu continued: "You are right, you are a veteran of the two dynasties, you have assisted the prince and the prince, and you have to work hard without credit. , it is not easy to see blood, so the widow will not kill you."

Baoshen breathed a sigh of relief, but he heard Wu Jiu say, "But your crime deserves to be punished, and your crime is unforgivable. I will spare him the official positions of Taibao and Lingyin, and let Baoshen reflect on himself in the mansion. His fellow party members will also be dismissed." , sent back to heaven to await trial."

When Wu Jiu said this, Baoshen fell to the ground. He thought that when he entered Chu, he was appointed as the prince's master, and later Tuogu became the Ling Yin of Chu. After so many years, he has become Chu The powerful minister, now all rights are gone in a matter of days and nights.

Baoshen fell to the ground, his face ashen, Wu Jiao waved his hand, and the soldiers came over immediately, detained Baoshen, and dragged him out of the hall.

Everyone looked at Baoshen one after another, feeling that if they were Wu Jiu, they would definitely kill Baoshen to avoid future troubles. After all, although Baoshen has no rights, his connections are still there, so he could not help but harbor a grudge and want revenge.

But Baoshen was a veteran of the two dynasties, and Wu Jiu had just ascended the throne, so it would be bad if he was killed, the common people don't know the little things in the palace, they only know that the king killed the old minister, it will chill the hearts of the people.

Baoshen was dragged down, while Prince Li was ashen-faced, tremblingly waiting for Wu Jiu's punishment.

Wu Jie smiled and said to Prince Li, "This thief pretends to be our Chu royal family in order to rebel. He should be punished for his crime. If he drags it down, he will be executed."

Prince Li Wang shouted loudly and said, "Let go of me!! I am the real prince! I am!"

But even though he yelled so loudly, no one paid any attention to him at all. Prince Li was dragged down after yelling all the way, because the yelling was too loud, and finally he was gagged and dragged away.

The chaotic road instantly calmed down, Wu Jiu looked at the scattered courtiers, some of the remaining courtiers didn't want to kneel down to the prince, and some didn't have time to kneel down.

Wu Jiao glanced at the crowd indifferently, and said: "Today's enthronement ceremony, thanks to Dr. Pan's loyalty and clever tricks to capture the enemy, I specially named Pan Chong as Shangqing Xianyin."

As soon as Wu Jiu's words came out, many people were shocked and all looked sideways at Pan Chong.

The official position of Chu State is different from that of the Central Plains. The prime minister of Chu State is called Ling Yin, and this Xian Yin is a great admonishing official like Dong Guo Ya. Although he is an admonishing minister, for example, the official Yipin is a close minister in front of the King of Chu. Whether it is the people's livelihood or the impeachment of officials, Xian Yin can persuade him.

Pan Chong is so young, still a fledgling boy, after this battle, it can be said that he rose to the top of the sky in one step, and became a doctor in one step. Naturally, many people were not convinced.

Everyone was discussing, and someone whispered from the bottom: "Pan Chong is young and has no achievements. I am afraid that some people will not accept that the king gave him such a high official position?"

The man wanted to fish in troubled waters, his voice was very low, and he was still in the crowd, thinking that Wu Jiao didn't hear who was talking, but Wu Jiao said with a smile: "Master Peng Yu's meaning, who is not convinced?"

Peng Yu didn't expect to be called by name, so he was startled and shut up quickly.

Peng Yu is a doctor of the state of Chu. Baoshen's surname is Peng. Peng Yu and Baoshen are related. Peng's family is all from Shen. So Peng Yu was canonized as Shen Gong.

Because the king of Chu is at the level of a king, he can confer the title of prince, just as the princes are at the rank of prince, so the local officials conferred by the princes are called viscounts.

At that time, King Xiongfei of Chu took the place of Shen as a city, and then distributed it to Peng Yu, who was allowed to manage Shen as the Duke of Shen.

But later, when Chu and Qi were at war, the old ministries of Shen and Deng began to rebel. Peng Yu was unable to suppress Shen's uprising and was soon overthrown. The rescuers fought back with him, but at that time, the civil strife in Chu was severe, who would send him the rescuers?

So Peng Yu, a duke of Shen who was confiscated, fell into a nameless place. Now Shen Guo and Deng Guo can be regarded as meritorious. Wu Jiu held a grudge, so he wanted to sow discord.

It's just that Peng Yu didn't expect that Wu Jiu's ears were so good, and he even called them by name.

Peng Yu didn't dare to speak for a moment, and shrank in the crowd.

Wu Jiu said with a smile: "I don't care where you were born, I don't care where you grew up, I don't care if you are young or old, I don't care whether your bloodline is noble or low, I... What matters is your loyalty."

As Wu Jiu said, he unfolded his black sleeve robe, pointed at Pan Chong, and said, "Pan Chong has this kind of loyalty, and he risked the danger to eliminate the treacherous people in the court for the widow. Loyalty and treachery, not distinguishing right from wrong, will only chill people's hearts."

Pan Chong cupped his hands obediently and said, "Thank you, Wang Endian, and Wang Yingming!"

When Pan Chong said this, someone beside him hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "I am Wang Yingming!"

"My Wang Yingming!"

"I, Wang Yingming—"

For a while, the hall was filled with praise students one after another, and Pan Chong immediately said: "Welcome my king to ascend the throne!"

Wu Jiu smiled, glanced at the people present, turned around, wrapped his black robe, and finally walked slowly up the chairman's steps of Lu's bedroom.

Wu Jiu walked all the way up, and everyone held their breath until Wu Jiu sat on the seat of the King of Chu, and all the officials of the Chu Kingdom immediately knelt down and shouted: "My king, my king Wannian!"

The envoys and kings of other countries also cupped their hands and said, "Congratulations, King Chu, on his enthronement!"

Everyone watched the excitement, but they didn't just watch the excitement, they also saw Wu Jiu's wrist. Hu Qi and Baoshen teamed up to bring down Wu Jiu, and they even got Prince Li's prince , the result was so miserable, and Duke Lu was kicked out of the hall. This enthronement can be described as bloodless and very exciting.

Wu Jiu sits firmly on the table. For a ruler, he is too young. Looking at it, whether it is the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States period, or the history of later generations, for a ruler, before the age of 30 is an insignificant youth. Seriously, Yingzheng succeeded to the throne at the age of 13, and became emperor at the age of 39. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty ascended the throne at the age of 16, and began his ambitious hegemony at the age of 30.

However, Wu Jiu, the young ruler, did not relent at all, and completely controlled the situation in his hands. He not only gave the Chu ministers a blow, but also gave all the princes a blow.

Taking advantage of the time just now, Qihou had already gone to the small hall next to him to change his clothes, put on a black court robe again, and walked in slowly, just in time for everyone to come in and offer congratulatory gifts.

Shan Zi, the envoy of the State of Qi, was holding a large brocade box in his hand. He walked over slowly, knelt down on the ground, saluted, and said respectfully: "I am offering a special congratulatory gift at the order of the widow, please the king of Chu to look at it." .”

Wu Jiu smiled, he didn't know that Marquis Qi had prepared a congratulatory gift for himself, and said with a smile, "Oh? Let Duke Qi bother you."

Qihou said with a smile: "Why don't the king of Chu open it and have a look? It must be something that makes the king of Chu happy."

Wu Jiu didn't know what it was, but as soon as Qi Hou said he was happy, Wu Jiu became inexplicably flustered, because he thought of He Shi Bi's steamed buns again, which Qi Hou said at the time.

Wu Jiu ordered someone to open the brocade box, and with the sound of "click!", the brocade box opened, revealing the congratulatory gift inside, which turned out to be a perfectly carved square jade...

NCM!

"NCM!"

"It's Heshibi..."

"The national treasure of my state of Chu is back!"

It turned out to be He's Bi, and today's He's Bi has been polished off the gray-white miscellaneous stones on the outside, revealing the true white color inside, not only that, He's Bi has also been carved, not carved into a small cage bag, but a square official seal.

Wu Jiu's eyes widened in surprise, the official seal was covered with complicated patterns, it looked exquisite, luxurious, and full of domineering, the carving was exquisite, it must have taken a lot of effort.

Everyone in the state of Chu knew that He's Bi had been presented by Baoshen for peace. Many people blamed Baoshen for presenting the national treasure. National prestige, donating Heshibi is undoubtedly giving the dignity of Chu.

Now that He Shibi is back, how can the officials of Chu State be unhappy?

The He's Bi was shining with dazzling brilliance, and it was quietly placed in the brocade box. The envoys and monarchs of the various countries were all dumbfounded when they saw it. This jade is huge, and the color is beautiful. , is really a treasure.

When Wu Jiu saw He Shibi, he was both surprised and scared. Fortunately, Marquis Qi didn't carve a huge steamed bun for himself at the critical moment...

Wu Jiu said with a smile: "Duke Qi is a generous gift, I thank you very much."

Marquis Qi also bowed to Wu Jiu, he didn't even make a draft when he was lying, and said calmly: "Qi and Chu have a good relationship, if I don't offer a small gift, I'm afraid I will be laughed at. If the king of Chu likes it, it's not worth anything."

This Heshibi is a national treasure handed down from generation to generation, and everyone can't pull it out in their eyes, but Qihou said it is worthless, so Wu Jiu watched quietly as Qihou pretended to be rich and powerful.

Although the enthronement ceremony was chaotic for a while, it ended smoothly. It happened to be noon at the end, and the dinner was held at dusk, so everyone dispersed and went back to prepare.

Wu Jiu walked directly from the inner hall to the small bedroom, and after waiting for a while, Qihou came in, and said with a smile, "Congratulations, second brother."

Wu Jiu smiled and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your cooperation."

When he said this, Marquis Qi immediately came over and put his arms around Wu Jiu. Seeing that there were still eunuchs and maids in the palace, Wu Jiu quickly waved his hand to signal them to go out.

Qihou hugged Wu Jiu, pretending to be pitiful, raised his hand to touch his neck, and said, "Second brother, show Gu to see if Gu has been smashed, that boy Pan Chong doesn't know how to be gentle." Son."

Wu Jiao said with a smile, "It wasn't smashed, I'm afraid it was stupid."

Qi Hou said: "Okay, the second brother has grown up, and now the second brother is the king of Chu, so he can entertain the lonely and make the lonely sad."

When Qihou said this, he almost burst into tears. Wu Jiao saw his stomach ache and wanted to laugh, but it was true that Qihou was hit, after all, they wanted to act for Baoshen.

Marquis Qi doesn't usually have a cold or fever, let alone being hit with a stick, Wu Jiao naturally felt distressed, and said, "Let the medical officer come and show you to your majesty."

Qihou said: "No, I need my second brother to take a look."

Wu Jiu saw that he was "playing like a baby", and had no choice but to show him his neck. It seemed that there was nothing wrong, after all, Qihou had rough skin and thick flesh.

Qi Hou said: "I was injured because of my second brother's great cause, did my second brother express anything?"

Wu Jiu looked at Qi Hou suspiciously, Qi Hou said with a smile: "Second brother is busy these days, and I haven't prepared delicious food for Gu, so Gu wants to eat the food that Second Brother cooks."

After thinking about it, Wu Jiu thought it was indeed the case. Since entering Chu, he has been very busy, not to mention making delicious food, even eating a meal in a hurry.

After doing this, I was very tired. In fact, Wu Jiu also missed the feeling of cooking a meal. He was very relaxed. Watching Qihou eat the meal he made was also very relaxing and he felt a sense of accomplishment.

Wu Jiu smiled and said, "Anyway, there's still some time left, so I've changed my clothes, so I'll go and make some for you now."

Qihou smiled and pressed Wu Jiu who was about to get up, and said: "Don't worry, the second brother looks good in this suit, I just want to see the second brother eat in this suit."

Wu Jiao lowered his head and looked at himself in surprise, the court robe hadn't been taken off yet, yet Qi Hou asked him to handle the meal like this?The robe is so loose, it has to be burned, but Qihou insisted, so he was just about to roll around, and Wu Jiu couldn't help it.

Wu Jiu asked Ziqing to go to the dining room first, and dismissed all the cooks, otherwise he would have frightened people to death if he went to serve the meals in his court robe.

There were several dining rooms in the palace of the King of Chu, which were much larger than the Qi palace. Ziqing quickly arranged them. Went to other dining rooms to discuss the dinner.

Wu Jiu went in, first tucked up all the loose robes, rolled up the sleeves, exposing Bai Shengsheng's arms, and put the hem of the clothes in his belt, while Qi Hou stood aside and watched Wu Jiu's movements with a smile on his face.

Wu Jiu straightened his robe, and suddenly felt a little tightness in his back. When he turned his head, he saw Qi Hou's naked eyes full of lust, which almost burned Wu Jiu through.

Wu Jiu had no choice but to turn around, quickly prepare something to eat, and said, "What would you like to eat, Your Majesty?"

Qihou said with a smile: "What the second brother made, Gudu likes it."

Wu Jiu raised his eyebrows, and after hearing Qi Hou's affectionate words of love, he smiled and said, "Then dip the salty rice dumplings in molasses?"

When Qi Hou heard this, he choked immediately. It seemed that he had figured out the seafood salty rice dumpling that Wu Jiao made a long time ago, and it still needs to be glued with honey?The taste has already drilled from the brain to the mouth, really...

Qi Hou was full of confusion, frowned, and looked disgusted.

Wu Jiu was just talking about it, he knew the taste of Marquis Qi, the standard northerner eats salty dishes and sweet desserts, for Qihou, rice dumplings are desserts, so he naturally eats sweet ones, seafood rice dumplings are also dipped Add sugar, enough for Qi Hou to vomit for a year.

Because Marquis Qi deserved some credit this time, Wu Jiu just talked about being stubborn, and planned to cook something delicious for Marquis Qi.

Wu Jiao looked at the ingredients at hand, they were all very fresh, one piece of beef was very nice in color, so Wu Jiao brought the beef over and prepared to chop stuffing for Qihou to make a beef shortbread to eat.

One can tell at a glance that the life in the Chu Palace is much more luxurious than that of Duke Qi, and the dining room is very complete.

Wu Jiu quickly chopped the beef into stuffing, and then started kneading noodles again. As soon as Qi Hou saw Wu Jiu kneading noodles, he immediately hid away, as if recalling the unpleasant experience of kneading noodles last time.

Wu Jiu chattered quickly by himself. He was not a good cook, but in Wu Jiu's hands, flowers could grow out, and his movements were graceful and smooth. It seemed that Qi Hou was very hungry, not only hungry, but also There is a feeling of wanting to swallow Wu Jiu alive.

Feeling Qi Hou's hot gaze, Wu Jiu had no choice but to continue to lower his head to take care of the meal. Qi Hou was tired from standing, so he just turned over and sat on the water tank next to him, looking down at Wu Jiu and chattering.

Qihou has never eaten pies with puff pastry. It is not impossible to make puff pastry in this era, but it is very difficult to make, especially a test of skill.

Wu Jiu seasoned the stuffing, before wrapping it into the noodles, Qi Hou already smelled a scent, and he was very hungry.

Soon the pancakes were ready to be put into the pan, and when both sides of the pancakes became golden and fluffy, the unique aroma of beef spread out, filling the whole dining room.

Qi Hou smelled the aroma, almost drooling, the beef pie tasted very strong, after Wu Jiu's seasoning, it became very fragrant, but it didn't have such a strong smell or greasy taste.

Qihou hurried over and said with a smile, "Second brother, can I eat?"

Seeing that he was greedy, Wu Jiao put the pie on a plate, handed it to Qihou, and said with a smile, "Be careful of burning your mouth."

Qi Hou took the plate, and couldn't wait any longer, and moved it to his mouth with chopsticks
