Chapter 119 On the King's Bed (2)
, Bite down, the puff pastry just out of the pan is so crispy, exudes a burnt smell, an indescribable fragrance, one bite down, the beef juice inside spurts out, it's hot Qihou" Hiss" several times.
Wu Jiu quickly wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, but Qi Hou was not afraid of the heat, he quickly sipped the soup from the puff pastry pancake, and took another big bite. The beef filling was very lumpy, very solid, and it looked good The meat, the patties are springy when you bite down, the outside is charred and the inside is tender, the beef is not old, it is tender and juicy, the taste is mellow but not greasy, Qi Hou has eaten so many beef, this is the best.
Qi Hou took a bite and said again and again: "It's delicious, my second brother is delicious!"
Wu Jiu was very helpless, so he took out several other pancakes that were already cooked. When Wu Jiao took out one pancake, Qihou ate one, and he ate one after he filled it. The speed was astonishing. When Wu Jiao took out the last pancake , Qi Hou has already solved the previous ones, his mouth is full of oil, his face is full of satisfaction, and he shows an elegant smile to Wu Jiao, Wu Jiao can't help but twitch his brows several times.
Qi Hou ate two-thirds of the last pancake, and suddenly remembered that Wu Jiao hadn't eaten for a long time, so he hurriedly left the pancake in his mouth, handed it to Wu Jiao courteously, and said, "Second brother, you can eat it too." eat."
Wu Jiao raised his eyebrows, looked down at the pancakes with tooth marks on the plate, he was very disgusted, but Qihou let him eat without hesitation, Wu Jiao had no choice but to eat the last third One of the pancakes, Qi Hou also diligently wiped his sweat.
After the two of them had lunch, Wu Jiu was about to start trying on the clothes for the dinner party again. He was busy for a while, and soon it was dusk.
Wu Jiu came out of his bedroom. Because the weather was getting warmer, Wu Jiu changed into a suit of clothes. Although it was not as gorgeous as a court robe, he looked very graceful. The simple black set off Wu Jiu's coolness and nobility, and he had an indescribable will have an ascetic temperament.
Wu Jiu didn't wear a crown, but put up a black jade crown high up. His attire, like that of Marquis Qi, is like a couple's attire.
Qi Hou looked at Wu Jiu carefully, and said with a smile, "Second Brother is really pretty."
Wu Jiu smiled and said, "Your Majesty is not bad, either."
Qihou raised his eyebrows and said, "Huh? It's just not bad? Didn't the second brother's obsession fall?"
Wu Jiu smiled and said, "It's still a little bit close."
Qihou said, "What's the difference?"
Wu Jiu smiled, stretched out his hand and picked Qihou's chin, because he was much shorter than Qihou, so he had to raise his head, chuckled into Qihou's ear and said, "Huh? The difference is...he wears too much .”
Qi Hou was taken aback for a moment, as if he didn't expect to be molested by Wu Jiu, but Wu Jiu laughed, as if he had taken advantage of it, and left quickly, Qi Hou realized this, and hurriedly chased after him, his face was full of joy when he was molested , Said: "Second brother, how about going back to Gutuo to show you?"
Wu Jiu heard him speak so loudly, and the eunuchs and maids beside him didn't know why, so they all looked sideways, Wu Jiu suddenly felt a headache, he shouldn't have flirted with Qi Hou...
The two walked into the banquet hall. There were already many people in the banquet hall. Because this was the banquet after the enthronement ceremony, it was unusually grand.
Wu Jiu and Qi Hou walked in and immediately became the focus of attention. Many people came to compliment them. Wu Jiu smiled and handed over to everyone, and then walked up to the rostrum.
Wu Jiu walked up to the rostrum, and everyone fell silent. Wu Jiu said with a smile: "Today is the day when I ascend the throne. Monarchs and envoys from all over the world have come from afar. I am very grateful. I have a special banquet. Be sure to have fun."
Everyone immediately bowed their hands to Wu Jiu, Wu Jiu said with a smile: "Your monarch and envoys are welcome, please sit down."
Only then did the crowd enter the table one after another, and soon the singers and dancers filed in, and the wine girl Pingting came over with a glass of wine, and poured wine for everyone.
The banquet hall in the state of Chu was very grand, and everyone sat to the brim, toasting and congratulating, as if the mutiny in the morning was an illusion.
The atmosphere in the banquet hall was very warm. After everyone toasted freely, many people came over to toast with Wu Jiao.
Wu Jiu was alone, he had no wife or heirs, everyone just heard that Wu Jiu had a white moonlight in his heart, and it was many years ago.
Now that Wu Jiu is the king of Chu, he doesn't even have a concubine, let alone a son or daughter, and Chu has no heirs. As a result, envoys and monarchs from all over the world came to tell Wu Jiu about their marriage.
At the banquet, some people with their female relatives introduced their daughters to Wu Jiu.
Just now in the bedroom on the road, many people have seen Wu Jiu’s skills. Although Chu State has just gone through the baptism of war and is waiting for prosperity, but as the saying goes, a starved camel is bigger than a horse. For a small country, it is still very powerful. Naturally, many people want to build relationships.
Wu Jiu resisted all kinds of envoys and monarchs with a polite appearance.
Wu Jiu was surrounded by many people, at this moment Peng Yu, who had just been devastated, circled around several times, wanting to come over to curry favor.
The backbone of the Peng family fell, but Peng Yu was unwilling to fall together with Baoshen, and wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of Baoshen's downfall to take over the position of the head of the Peng family, so he spared several laps, and finally came over to toast with a glass of wine.
Peng Yu said with a smile: "I am Wang Wannian, the villain will offer a cup to my king."
Wu Jiu looked at Peng Yu, raised his glass with a smile, and drank it all in one gulp. Peng Yu quickly said, "My king is refreshing, it's my Chu country style, congratulations to my king Daxi."
Wu Jiu didn't speak, Peng Yu was embarrassed for a moment, and then he whispered: "My king, Peng Yu has something, I don't know whether to say it or not."
Wu Jiu smiled and said, "Then don't talk about it."
When he said this, Peng Yu almost choked to death, coughed several times, and said, "This... this matter is very urgent. Peng Yu kept it in his heart, and he always felt bad, so let's talk about it..."
He said, fearing that Wu Jiu would not listen, he quickly said: "My lord, the rebels from the state of Shen have been so rampant recently, and the rebels from the former dynasty of the state of Shen have come out to rebel, causing the people of Shendi to live in poverty. How dare Peng Yu ask my king to send troops and let Peng Yu Put down the traitors in Shendi."
When Wu Jiu heard it, he immediately understood.
Because Qi State needed to conquer the four-way army of Chu State, it cooperated with the old ministries of Shen State and Deng State. Chu State was defeated, and Shen State and Deng State had begun to become independent successfully. Independent, but because of Wu Jiu, it still submits to Chu State and is a subsidiary country of Chu State.
Although from a general point of view, Shen Guo and Deng Guo still submit to Chu, but from an internal point of view, this submission is different.
Because after Xiong Fei destroyed Shen Guo and Deng Guo, he canonized Shen Gong and Deng Gong respectively, and Peng Yu was this Shen Gong.
Now that Shen Guofu has returned to Chu State, it is impossible for Peng Yu to do Shen Gong. Peng Yu has not been dismissed from office yet, but he has been emptied. He was driven back from Shendi and dared not go back.
When Peng Yu said this, he actually wanted Wu Jiu to give him soldiers and horses, let him lead the troops to fight back, and become Duke Shen himself again.
Wu Jiu hadn't refuted Peng Yu yet. At this time a young man came over. The young man Wu Jiu was unfamiliar with, and he didn't know him. He said in surprise, "Uncle, don't you want to trap my king in injustice by saying that?"
Peng Yu was stunned at once, turned his head, and saw the young man. In fact, the young man was right. Wu Jiu, Shen Gong and Deng Gong both had an agreement. He and Deng Guo also surrendered. If Wu Jiu sent troops to Peng Yu, he would be a villain who did not keep his word.
Everyone understands this truth, but it's not easy to say it directly. I didn't expect the young man to say it directly.
Wu Jiu couldn't help looking at the young man in surprise. The young man called Peng Yu his uncle, and he should be from the Peng family. Peng Yu immediately said, "What do you know, go away."
The young man just overheard it when he was passing by, and he seemed to be very straightforward, so he said something, and was scolded by Peng Yu, so he had to apologize and walk away.
Peng Yu's face was completely lost, and he was still thrown by his own family, so he had to leave resentfully.
Wu Jiu ignored Peng Yu who walked away angrily, but showed interest in the young man. At this time, Qi Hou walked over from the side, and it was just an internal matter of Chu State, so Qi Hou couldn't take care of it, so he had to stand Waiting on the side, now I found an opportunity and came over.
Qihou said in a low voice: "Second brother, you will be disgusted by looking at others like this."
Only then did Wu Jiu look away, just as the young man disappeared into the crowd, Wu Jiao said with a smile, "I'm just curious, who is that person?"
Qi Hou said with a smile: "Second brother should have known about this matter by asking Pan Chong. Gu Fang just saw Pan Chong talk to that man."
Wu Jiao was right when he heard it, so he took advantage of Pan Chong's coming to toast and asked about the young man. When Pan Chong heard it, Wu Jiao didn't need to describe it, and said with a smile: "My king doesn't know something, but our Chu A well-known idiot in the country."
Wu Jiu was even more curious, and Pan Fan explained that the young man was actually from the Peng family, he was a prisoner during the war with Shen Guo, he was the nephew of Baoshen and Peng Yu, and his name was Peng Zhongshuang.
As soon as Pan Chong mentioned the young man's name, Marquis Qi was the first to be a little surprised. Unexpectedly, it was Peng Zhongshuang. In his previous life, Marquis Qi had heard of the name of Peng Zhongshuang. He doesn't work hard, but he is a genius in using soldiers, helping Xiong Pei to expand the territory and consolidate the hegemony of the Chu State.
Wu Jiu had also heard of Peng Zhongshuang, who was one of the first two famous Ling Yins in Chu.
In the early days of Chu State, the position of Ling Yin did not exist, and Mo Ao was the supreme ruler of Chu State. Later, in order to avoid Mo Ao’s monopoly, the King of Chu established Ling Yin, and placed Ling Yin above Mo Ao. To control Mo Ao.
Peng Zhongshuang was one of the most famous Ling Yins in Chu State.
Pan Chong said with a smile: "Although he is named Peng, my king must not regard him as a Peng. The people of the Peng family almost hate his mouth."
Peng Zhongshuang has a bookish temperament, a very stubborn temper, and he doesn't know how to prevaricate others. He is also very accurate in judging people, and he is always outspoken. People don't know whether he is really stupid or not. Anyway, when he speaks, everyone doesn't like it. he.
In addition, Peng Zhongshuang is still young, so he has not been given important tasks at all, and no one treats him. If it is not because this is the banquet after enthronement hall, according to Peng Zhongshuang's level, he would not be able to enter the palace to attend the banquet.
Wu Jiu was very interested, Peng Zhongshuang was a talented person, he would definitely be used again in the future, maybe there would be surprises.
Wu Jiu was surrounded by many toasters, and soon they were surrounded again. Qi Hou knew that Wu Jiu's wine was not good, so he specially blocked the wine for him.
Princess Mi also attended the banquet. Princess Mi is the daughter of Xiong Pei. Since Xiong Pei passed away, Princess Mi's status in the palace has been bad. After all, Princess Mi is a daughter, not a man. Everyone is fighting for power. No one takes care of Princess Mi.
Princess Mi lived in seclusion and didn't show her face anymore. This time the banquet was grand, so Princess Mi was going to toast Wu Jiao for a glass of wine. After all, Wu Jiao was her uncle. Princess Mi also got along with Wu Jiao for a while before. Correcting this person is still very good.
Just as Princess Mi was about to come over to toast, she saw a woman walking in. The woman was very beautiful, walking swayingly, revealing an indescribably charming and seductive aura, with a pair of almond eyes raised up, as if she was full of affection .
And the woman still has a big belly, it looks like she is already ten months pregnant and is about to give birth.
When Princess Mi saw the woman, she hurried over to support her and said, "Aunt Li, why are you here, be careful."
That woman is the concubine of Xiong Pei, king of Chu, and Li Rong's princess is Li Ji, a famous femme fatale in history. Because she was captured by the state of Jin, she served the Marquis of Jin, but the Marquis of Jin is actually a eunuch. He himself knew best that it was bestowed by Wu Jiu, so the Marquis of Jin bribed Li Ji to King Xiong Pei of Chu.
Because of her eyebrows and eyes, and her ability to pretend to be weak, Li Ji was very much loved by the King of Chu, Xiong Pei. In history, Li Ji was also a eloquent person, relying on her beauty to frame the prince for molesting herself, and finally forced the prince to commit suicide. The future Jin Wengong fled all the way.
Li Ji knows a lot of ways to confuse people, and Xiong Pei also loves her beauty. It has been a long time since Xiong Pei passed away, but unexpectedly, Li Ji ruined Xiong Pei's child, who is about to give birth now.
Li Ji is considered to be Princess Mi's little mother. After Xiong Fei passed away, Princess Mi's treatment plummeted, but Li Ji was very kind to Princess Mi at this time. On the surface, Li Ji was kind to Princess Mi and comforted Princess Mi every day. Ji wanted to curry favor with Princess Mi, and Princess Mi knew that Li Ji was pregnant with her father's child, so she sent all her food and clothing expenses to Li Ji, for fear that her father would be gone and she would be wronged.
Li Ji is a scheming person, she just uses her lips to please Princess Mi, and Princess Mi has shallow thoughts, wishing that she can't afford to wear old clothes and give Li Ji the best.
Li Ji came out with a big belly, and Princess Mi hurried to help her, while Li Ji said to Aiai: "Princess, Li has a heartless request, please help Princess Mi, if Princess Mi doesn't help me, so will Li." I can't live anymore, woo woo woo..."
As Li Ji spoke, she even cried out, covering her eyes with her hands, whining loudly, very miserable.
Princess Mi hurriedly comforted her, fearing that she might be pregnant, and said, "Aunt Li, tell me, if there is anything I can do to help, I will do my best."
Li Ji then said: "I want to invite the princess to introduce me to the king."
Princess Mi is not young this year, and she can get married long ago. Although she is a little innocent, but when she heard this, she immediately understood Li Ji's meaning, and said in surprise: "This... this... Aunt Li, you... Now you are pregnant with the flesh and blood of Wangfu, how can... the king is Wangfu's brother."
Li Ji looked at Ai Ai, feeling very miserable, and said: "How can I not understand what the princess means? Li also wants to keep her chastity, but...but now the situation is like this, and Li is pregnant with the flesh and blood of the former king. How many people want to marry her?" Murdering the child in my womb, if I don't climb to the king, and don't get the king's favor and protection, how can I guarantee the life of the child in my womb? Princess, you must have pity on me. What is festival? Besides... besides, sister-in-law marrying younger brother has been a thing since ancient times, and it's not a big deal."
What Li Ji said is very pleasant, Princess Mi is really simple, she is not doing well these days, and Li Ji always complains when she comes here again, so Princess Mi also thinks that Li Ji is not doing well, in fact Li Ji uses her food to eat her , life can be nourishing, but now I want to live more nourishing, after all, Wu Jiao has no wife at all, not even a concubine, if Li Ji can get close to Wu Jiao, she can guarantee that relying on her beauty, she will definitely be able to Sit on the throne of Mrs. Chu.
Princess Mi felt a little bad, but she couldn't bear to refuse in her heart. If someone really framed Li Ji's child, what should I do? I am a weak woman. If I agree, I will be the princess, but if I don't, it will be the former king and princess. I have no power at all. , Li Ji kept crying again, Princess Mi couldn't bear it, so she nodded.
Princess Mi brought Li Ji to toast soon. Wu Jiao was taken aback when he saw Princess Mi at first glance. After all, Princess Mi looked exactly like his mother in his previous life.
Wu Jiu also thought of Xiong Fei's death, Princess Mi had no one to rely on, and he lived in the palace, he probably suffered a lot of grievances, Xiong Fei's death was also a part of Wu Jiu, Wu Jiu felt very dissatisfied when he saw Princess Mi now Fall off.
Princess Mi raised her wine glass and said, "Congratulations to my king."
Wu Jiu nodded and said, "There's no need to be too polite."
Qi Hou didn't know that Princess Mi looked like Wu Jiao's mother, but he felt that Wu Jiao looked at Princess Mi in a particularly strange way. If it wasn't because Princess Mi was Wu Jiao's niece, Qi Hou would have been jealous, so he knew. Qi Hou also drank a bowl of vinegar without hesitation.
Before Qihou finished eating Princess Mi's jealousy, he saw a plump woman with a big belly next to her. The woman was very beautiful. Qihou was taken aback when he saw it, because he recognized it.
When the Marquis of Qi was on an envoy to the Jin State, he also met Li Ji. Li Ji's beauty was unforgettable, but Li Ji was a vicious and vicious person. At that time, a doctor of Jin wanted to quell the chaos of Li Ji and kill Li Ji. Li Ji also asked Qi for help and wanted to serve Qi Hou, but Qi Hou did not agree.
Qi Hou knew Li Ji, but he didn't expect Li Ji to come to Chu State with a big belly. When Princess Mi introduced her, it turned out that Li Ji was the concubine of Chu King Xiong Pei. When Chu King Xiong Pei died, Li Ji I was pregnant, and now I am about to give birth.
When Qi Hou heard this, he squinted his eyes. If Li Ji's belly was the child of King Xiong Pei of Chu, the girl would be fine, but if it was a boy, it would be the orthodox royal blood of Chu. Wu Jiao had no heirs, so Li Ji This child of mine has a legitimate right of inheritance.
Thinking of Li Ji's character, Qi Hou frowned immediately, his eyes full of sternness.
Li Ji didn't pay attention to Qi Hou. After all, he didn't know that Qi Hou was reborn, and he had figured out his own nature. Li Ji had always been weak and weak, and others didn't know that she was a snake-hearted and unscrupulous person.
Li Ji looked very pitiful and bowed down to Wu Jiao Yingying. Wu Jiu didn't know who she was and thought she was Xiong Pei's concubine, but after hearing Princess Mi's introduction, Wu Jiao immediately understood.
The frail and weak woman in front of her is not inferior to Wen Jiangxuanjiang.
Wu Jiu didn't dare to let her worship him, but he didn't help her, because he was afraid that Li Ji would touch Ci'er, so he just smiled and said, "You don't need to be polite, sister-in-law, please get up."
Seeing that Wu Jiu was indifferent to her beauty, Li Ji raised her glass and said, "King Li Jing, have a drink."
She said, deliberately lowering her chest so that Wu Jiu could see her charming chest, and raised her hand to drink up the wine. When she raised her hand, her sleeves slipped a little, revealing Li Ji's white and tender arms. Leaving out some wine syrup, it is simply endless reverie.
Li Ji could be said to be scheming in every gesture, but she drank a glass of wine in a charming manner, and Wu Jiao looked at her indifferently, and Wu Jiao said flatly, "Sister-in-law is pregnant, it's better not to drink."
Li Ji was dumbfounded and didn't understand the situation at all, so Wu Jiao said: "Today's banquet is messy, sister-in-law should go back to rest as soon as possible, I will ask the maid to send sister-in-law back."
As he spoke, he waved his hands, and a few court ladies came over, "caught" Li Ji and left. Li Ji was so surprised, she turned her head frequently, with an unbelievable look on her face.
Princess Mi was relieved. After all, Li Ji was the concubine of the king's father, and she was pregnant with Liujia. Although it was for self-protection, it was also for the child's good, but if it really had anything to do with the new king, it would probably make people laugh.
When Wu Jiao saw Princess Mi, Princess Mi's complexion was not as good as before. It is estimated that because of Xiong Pei's death, Princess Mi's status is not as good as before.
Wu Jiao asked Princess Mi where she lived recently, and why he hadn’t seen Princess Mi for so long after entering Chu. Princess Mi replied somewhat disappointed. It turned out that Princess Mi had moved to a side hall long ago, which was very remote. In this place, there are not many maids around.
Wu Jiu immediately asked the eunuchs around him to deal with this problem, and asked Princess Mi to move back to the original place, still taking care of food and living as a princess, and assigned many eunuchs and maids to Princess Mi.
Wu Jiao's behavior made many people very strange. Logically speaking, Princess Mi is Xiong Pei's daughter, even if she is Wu Jiao's niece, she is not too close. I didn't expect Wu Jiao to be so kind to Princess Mi.
For a while, many envoys and monarchs came to marry Princess Mi again.
Seeing that Wu Jiu was so kind to Princess Mi, Qihou felt sour in his heart, but he didn't say it out, fearing that speaking out would affect his attitude...
Today is Wu Jiu's enthronement ceremony, he also dealt with Baoshen and Prince Li, got Hu Qi's autographed letter, and he won the first battle, so Wu Jiu was inevitably a little happy, so he drank a few more glasses of wine.
Wu Jiao drank a few more glasses of wine, and Qihou suddenly had a headache, because Wu Jiao was going to drink like crazy after drinking, and he had already started to be muddleheaded, laughing at everyone.
Qihou hurriedly stopped him and said, "Second brother is tired, let's go back and rest."
Wu Jiao nodded, he was about to go back when he was walking awkwardly, he walked out of the banquet hall and walked straight forward, Qi Hou saw that he had a sense of direction, but Wu Jiao kept walking, heading towards the lake. Li Tiao, Qi Hou hurriedly hugged Wu Jiao by the waist, dragged him back, and coaxed him repeatedly: "Second brother, second brother, go this way, not that way."
Wu Jiu protested, "I know, I know the way."
Qi Hou said softly: "Okay, okay, come on, walk this way, slow down."
Wu Jiu was dragged by Marquis Qi, and the two of them walked into the small bedroom. Wu Tang knew that Wu Jiu would definitely get drunk at today's banquet, so he made a strong hangover soup long ago, and when he saw them coming back, he went out to serve the hangover soup up.
Marquis Qi coaxed Wu Jiu into the small bedroom, and asked the eunuch and maids to go out first, and take care of Wu Jiu by himself, lest the reputation of the new king of Chu be ruined...
After drinking, Wu Jiu not only wobbled while walking, but also couldn't sit still on the mat. He collapsed after a while, lying limply on the ground like a baby.
Although the weather has warmed up, Qi Hou was afraid that he would be weak and catch a cold lying on the ground, so he quickly picked up Wu Jiu, let him lean in his arms, and said, "Who made you drink so much wine, it's uncomfortable now." ?”
As Marquis Qi said, he even scratched the bridge of Wu Jiu's nose. Wu Jiu snorted softly, squinted his eyes and said, "Because...Jiao is happy."
Qihou said with a smile: "Yes, yes, now the second brother is the king of Chu, and those bastards have also been taught a lesson, and they dare not do it again in a short time."
Wu Jiu smiled and said, "Well...it's not because of this."
Qihou said: "What else is there to be happy about?"
Wu Jiu looked at Qi Hou with soft eyes, and said with a smile, "Because Jiu is finally on an equal footing with the Lord."
Qi Hou was taken aback, then smiled and said: "That's not true, now the second brother is a head taller than Gu, Gu is the Marquis, and the second brother is the king of Chu."
Wu Jiu smiled and said, "That's right, you have to take good care of me."
Qihou said with a smile: "Then I have served you well, what rewards do you have?"
Wu Jiao thought for a while, because he was drunk, his reaction was very slow, and he curled his lips. That little gesture almost made Qi Hou cute, Wu Jiao said vaguely: "I reward you with twenty big bags!"
Qi Hou smiled and said: "Second brother, when you are alone, you only know how to eat? You don't eat buns."
Wu Jiu asked a little strangely: "Then what do you want to eat? Pancakes? Liangpi? Beef cakes?"
Listening to his counting, Marquis Qi leaned over with a smile, kissed Wu Jiu on the lips, and said, "I don't want to eat it, but I want to eat my second brother, on your king's couch."
As soon as Qi Hou said that, Wu Jiao fell silent. Qi Hou thought he was asleep, but when he looked down, Wu Jiao's eyelashes blinked twice, and then he said "um", as if he agreed.
Qi Hou's heart skipped a beat, then he stood up abruptly, picked up Wu Jiao horizontally, strode to the couch, and quickly put Wu Jiao on it.
Qihou smiled and said, "Second Brother, did you ask for this?"
Wu Jiu simply "let himself go" because he was drunk, grabbed Qihou's front collar, pulled him forward suddenly, raised his head, lifted his chin slightly, his cheeks were a little red with alcohol, Picking up his lips, he said, "Stop talking nonsense, and come to serve the widow."
When Qi Hou heard this, he was naturally willing, and with a soft "click", he hooked Wu Jiao's belt buckle. Just as Qi Hou was about to pull Wu Jiao's belt, Wu Jiao had already held Qi Hou down. He suddenly regretted it, and looked up at Wu Jiu.
Wu Jiu squinted his eyes and smiled brightly. He clamped his belt with his index finger and middle finger, but there was a soft "swish", the soft and delicate black belt made of silk made a sound of fabric rubbing, Following Wu Jiu's movement, he pulled it down.
Qi Hou watched him untie his belt, his breathing suddenly became heavy, and his eyes seemed to be able to spew fire, like a wild beast.
Wu Jiu's black robe slid down the side of the couch with a "crash"...
Tang Wu had already prepared the hangover soup, because last time Wu Jiu said it was very bitter when it was cold, so Tang Wu went to warm it up, who knew that when he came back with the hangover soup, he heard the sound coming from the inner hall of the small bedroom. There are strange sounds.
Because Wu Jiu was drunk, he didn't suppress his voice. Whether it was speaking or breathing, he was extremely enthusiastic. Tang Wu, who had always been calm, felt a little embarrassed when he heard it. He quickly ran away with the hangover soup. They closed the door.
Wu Jiu felt that he might have had a dream, if it wasn't for the dream, he wouldn't be so "presumptuous and bold" and would even be afraid of himself if he was bold!
Wu Jiu opened his eyes in confusion. As soon as he opened his eyes, he immediately felt very bad, as if he was not dreaming, because now he was hurting everywhere, and it was very strange, especially in some strange places.
Wu Jiu let out a "hiss", Qi Hou had already woken up, after all, it was getting late, and I'm afraid he would be able to have lunch in a while.
Qihou smiled, with a refreshed look on his face, his voice was a little hoarse and low, and he said, "Second Brother, how are you doing? The king I serve is comfortable?"
When Wu Jiu heard Qihou's voice, his face immediately turned red with a "boom". The thoughts of those fragments from yesterday slowly came back to his mind. The more he thought about it, the more he felt like he was possessed by an evil spirit.
Wu Jiu was a little embarrassed, coughed, and said, "It's okay."
Qi Hou said with a smile: "Huh? Is that so? But yesterday the king cried and shouted, and grabbed me several times, and finally passed out."
As Qihou said, he showed Wu Jiu his arm. Sure enough, there were several scratches on his arm. After all, Wu Jiu had no experience before.
Qi Hou seemed to be showing off his medals. Before Wu Jiu said that he was not good at technology, now Qi Hou is ashamed.
Qihou came over and said in a low voice, "Second Brother, is Gu powerful?"
Seeing his smug smile, Wu Jiao quickly pushed Qihou away, coughed, and said, "I'm going to get up."
Qihou didn't stop him, just leaned on the couch, with a very leisurely and thoughtful look, squinted his eyes, and said with a smile: "Second brother was very powerful last night."
Wu Jiu really couldn't listen anymore, Qi Hou is simply a scoundrel, Wu Jiu felt that his morality in this area was simply incomparable with him.
At this time, Ziqing's voice sounded outside, saying, "Your Majesty, have you got up? Xian Yin begs to see you."
Qihou originally wanted to make fun of Wu Jiu, but when Pan Chong came, he didn't know what it was, Wu Jiao wanted Ziqing to come in to serve him, but he looked down at his own red marks, and couldn't bear to see them, so he had to silently Put on your clothes.
Qihou turned over and sat up refreshed, and helped Wu Jiu put on his clothes attentively, and then called Ziqing in to take care of washing.
Pan Chong waited outside for a long time before he was summoned in, and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, the previous order Yin Baoshen seems to have suddenly contracted a serious illness."
Wu Jiu heard that Baoshen's official position had just been dismissed yesterday, and today Baoshen would not stop. gone."
Wu Jiu squinted his eyes, Baoshen has already fallen, and the person who visits Baoshen's family is probably the "true love", maybe they are confident, Baoshen is expected to be the elder of the two dynasties, and Wu Jiu, the new king Dare not touch him, maybe Baoshen is selling out for suffering, selling out for old age, and after Wu Jiu will release him, he will be re-appointed as Commander Yin, so many people are going to make connections.
Wu Jiu didn't show any special expression when he heard this, he just said quietly: "Baoshen is a veteran of the two dynasties, he is also old, and he is ill. I am a junior, so I should go and see him in person."
Baoshen was sick, and many people came to visit him in the morning. What everyone didn't expect was that a luxurious black car slowly stopped at the gate of Baoshen's Peng's mansion.
Wu Jiu was dressed in a black court robe, dressed very formally, and slowly walked down from the car. When everyone saw it, they all wondered if they were right. Wu Jiu was the new king, and he didn't dare touch Baoshen at all. Killing Baoshen, whether it is right or wrong, will lead to disrespectful public opinion, especially now that Wu Jiu has not completely controlled the court of Chu State. Naturally, there are many people with ulterior motives who will take advantage of this public opinion. Now Wu Jiu I'm afraid it's to convince the weak.
Everyone was waiting to see the liveliness of the new king, but Wu Jiu looked calm and relaxed, and naturally Marquis Qi also came to visit him.
Both of them were dressed in black, and they were led in by Mrs. Peng's servants. Ms. Peng rushed to greet them. Among them was Peng Yu who was seen at the banquet yesterday. The young man was standing at the back of Ms. Peng. The most idiot is Peng Zhongshuang.
Wu Jiu was led into the inner courtyard, Baoshen fell ill and was recuperating in the inner courtyard.
Walking this way, Peng's mansion is comparable to the royal palace of Chu State. Although this statement is a bit exaggerated, it is not an exaggeration at all compared to the palace of Qi State.
The whole Peng's mansion was built very grandly, and there was an endless stream of servants coming and going. It could be seen that since Baoshen became Xiong Pei's master, he was determined to make a lot of money, and Peng also relied on Baoshen's name. , From being a prisoner of Shen State, he became an important minister of Chu State.
Walking all the way in, it took a lot of time. Don't look at Wu Jiao who is so calm and unremarkable on the surface, but in his heart, he can't stand it anymore. Yesterday, Marquis Qi seemed like a wild beast, and Wu Jiao was a young man. Guadanzi has no experience at all, so it is inevitable that he will feel a little uncomfortable, especially after walking such a long way, it is even more uncomfortable.
But in order to maintain the majesty of being the king of Chu, Wu Jiu had no choice but to bear it by himself.
After walking for a while, he finally entered the inner courtyard. After the servants went in to report, they pushed open the door and asked Wu Jiu to come in.
When Wu Jiu walked in, Baoshen was lying on the couch, looking like he was sick in bed, but he didn't have a haggard face, and he didn't look like he was going to die of illness like the legend said.
Baoshen didn't get up, but said, "I'm sick, so I can't bow to my king, please forgive me."
Wu Jiu walked in, sat down in front of the banquet, faced Baoshen not too close away, and said with a smile: "What is the old man talking about? You are old and sick. I am just a junior, but You are just a mere king of Chu, how can I get you to stand up and salute?"
Baoshen heard Wu Jiu's implication, but pretended not to hear it, and coughed a few times, emphasizing that he was seriously ill.
Wu Jiu said with a smile: "When the old man was the teacher of Brother Wang, he was dedicated and loyal to his duties. Brother Wang often mentioned the loyalty of the old man to the widow, and the widow will always remember it."
Baoshen didn't know why Wu Jiu suddenly brought up this matter, it sounded like a compliment, but at the enthronement ceremony yesterday, they had already torn their skins open, there was no pretense at all, why Wu Jiu suddenly started to say these "hypocritical" words?
At this time, Wu Jiu smiled faintly and said: "Yesterday... I had a dream about my brother Wang who passed away. Brother Wang told me in the dream that he was in the underworld, and I missed the old man very much. Brother Wang made me Ask the old man, when will he be willing to go down...to accompany him?"
When Baoshen heard this, he was shocked, and his face instantly turned pale...

Qi Mengmeng: Gu is so rich, big, powerful, and thick!
Bear Correction: ▼_▼
Wu Jiu quickly wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, but Qi Hou was not afraid of the heat, he quickly sipped the soup from the puff pastry pancake, and took another big bite. The beef filling was very lumpy, very solid, and it looked good The meat, the patties are springy when you bite down, the outside is charred and the inside is tender, the beef is not old, it is tender and juicy, the taste is mellow but not greasy, Qi Hou has eaten so many beef, this is the best.
Qi Hou took a bite and said again and again: "It's delicious, my second brother is delicious!"
Wu Jiu was very helpless, so he took out several other pancakes that were already cooked. When Wu Jiao took out one pancake, Qihou ate one, and he ate one after he filled it. The speed was astonishing. When Wu Jiao took out the last pancake , Qi Hou has already solved the previous ones, his mouth is full of oil, his face is full of satisfaction, and he shows an elegant smile to Wu Jiao, Wu Jiao can't help but twitch his brows several times.
Qi Hou ate two-thirds of the last pancake, and suddenly remembered that Wu Jiao hadn't eaten for a long time, so he hurriedly left the pancake in his mouth, handed it to Wu Jiao courteously, and said, "Second brother, you can eat it too." eat."
Wu Jiao raised his eyebrows, looked down at the pancakes with tooth marks on the plate, he was very disgusted, but Qihou let him eat without hesitation, Wu Jiao had no choice but to eat the last third One of the pancakes, Qi Hou also diligently wiped his sweat.
After the two of them had lunch, Wu Jiu was about to start trying on the clothes for the dinner party again. He was busy for a while, and soon it was dusk.
Wu Jiu came out of his bedroom. Because the weather was getting warmer, Wu Jiu changed into a suit of clothes. Although it was not as gorgeous as a court robe, he looked very graceful. The simple black set off Wu Jiu's coolness and nobility, and he had an indescribable will have an ascetic temperament.
Wu Jiu didn't wear a crown, but put up a black jade crown high up. His attire, like that of Marquis Qi, is like a couple's attire.
Qi Hou looked at Wu Jiu carefully, and said with a smile, "Second Brother is really pretty."
Wu Jiu smiled and said, "Your Majesty is not bad, either."
Qihou raised his eyebrows and said, "Huh? It's just not bad? Didn't the second brother's obsession fall?"
Wu Jiu smiled and said, "It's still a little bit close."
Qihou said, "What's the difference?"
Wu Jiu smiled, stretched out his hand and picked Qihou's chin, because he was much shorter than Qihou, so he had to raise his head, chuckled into Qihou's ear and said, "Huh? The difference is...he wears too much .”
Qi Hou was taken aback for a moment, as if he didn't expect to be molested by Wu Jiu, but Wu Jiu laughed, as if he had taken advantage of it, and left quickly, Qi Hou realized this, and hurriedly chased after him, his face was full of joy when he was molested , Said: "Second brother, how about going back to Gutuo to show you?"
Wu Jiu heard him speak so loudly, and the eunuchs and maids beside him didn't know why, so they all looked sideways, Wu Jiu suddenly felt a headache, he shouldn't have flirted with Qi Hou...
The two walked into the banquet hall. There were already many people in the banquet hall. Because this was the banquet after the enthronement ceremony, it was unusually grand.
Wu Jiu and Qi Hou walked in and immediately became the focus of attention. Many people came to compliment them. Wu Jiu smiled and handed over to everyone, and then walked up to the rostrum.
Wu Jiu walked up to the rostrum, and everyone fell silent. Wu Jiu said with a smile: "Today is the day when I ascend the throne. Monarchs and envoys from all over the world have come from afar. I am very grateful. I have a special banquet. Be sure to have fun."
Everyone immediately bowed their hands to Wu Jiu, Wu Jiu said with a smile: "Your monarch and envoys are welcome, please sit down."
Only then did the crowd enter the table one after another, and soon the singers and dancers filed in, and the wine girl Pingting came over with a glass of wine, and poured wine for everyone.
The banquet hall in the state of Chu was very grand, and everyone sat to the brim, toasting and congratulating, as if the mutiny in the morning was an illusion.
The atmosphere in the banquet hall was very warm. After everyone toasted freely, many people came over to toast with Wu Jiao.
Wu Jiu was alone, he had no wife or heirs, everyone just heard that Wu Jiu had a white moonlight in his heart, and it was many years ago.
Now that Wu Jiu is the king of Chu, he doesn't even have a concubine, let alone a son or daughter, and Chu has no heirs. As a result, envoys and monarchs from all over the world came to tell Wu Jiu about their marriage.
At the banquet, some people with their female relatives introduced their daughters to Wu Jiu.
Just now in the bedroom on the road, many people have seen Wu Jiu’s skills. Although Chu State has just gone through the baptism of war and is waiting for prosperity, but as the saying goes, a starved camel is bigger than a horse. For a small country, it is still very powerful. Naturally, many people want to build relationships.
Wu Jiu resisted all kinds of envoys and monarchs with a polite appearance.
Wu Jiu was surrounded by many people, at this moment Peng Yu, who had just been devastated, circled around several times, wanting to come over to curry favor.
The backbone of the Peng family fell, but Peng Yu was unwilling to fall together with Baoshen, and wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of Baoshen's downfall to take over the position of the head of the Peng family, so he spared several laps, and finally came over to toast with a glass of wine.
Peng Yu said with a smile: "I am Wang Wannian, the villain will offer a cup to my king."
Wu Jiu looked at Peng Yu, raised his glass with a smile, and drank it all in one gulp. Peng Yu quickly said, "My king is refreshing, it's my Chu country style, congratulations to my king Daxi."
Wu Jiu didn't speak, Peng Yu was embarrassed for a moment, and then he whispered: "My king, Peng Yu has something, I don't know whether to say it or not."
Wu Jiu smiled and said, "Then don't talk about it."
When he said this, Peng Yu almost choked to death, coughed several times, and said, "This... this matter is very urgent. Peng Yu kept it in his heart, and he always felt bad, so let's talk about it..."
He said, fearing that Wu Jiu would not listen, he quickly said: "My lord, the rebels from the state of Shen have been so rampant recently, and the rebels from the former dynasty of the state of Shen have come out to rebel, causing the people of Shendi to live in poverty. How dare Peng Yu ask my king to send troops and let Peng Yu Put down the traitors in Shendi."
When Wu Jiu heard it, he immediately understood.
Because Qi State needed to conquer the four-way army of Chu State, it cooperated with the old ministries of Shen State and Deng State. Chu State was defeated, and Shen State and Deng State had begun to become independent successfully. Independent, but because of Wu Jiu, it still submits to Chu State and is a subsidiary country of Chu State.
Although from a general point of view, Shen Guo and Deng Guo still submit to Chu, but from an internal point of view, this submission is different.
Because after Xiong Fei destroyed Shen Guo and Deng Guo, he canonized Shen Gong and Deng Gong respectively, and Peng Yu was this Shen Gong.
Now that Shen Guofu has returned to Chu State, it is impossible for Peng Yu to do Shen Gong. Peng Yu has not been dismissed from office yet, but he has been emptied. He was driven back from Shendi and dared not go back.
When Peng Yu said this, he actually wanted Wu Jiu to give him soldiers and horses, let him lead the troops to fight back, and become Duke Shen himself again.
Wu Jiu hadn't refuted Peng Yu yet. At this time a young man came over. The young man Wu Jiu was unfamiliar with, and he didn't know him. He said in surprise, "Uncle, don't you want to trap my king in injustice by saying that?"
Peng Yu was stunned at once, turned his head, and saw the young man. In fact, the young man was right. Wu Jiu, Shen Gong and Deng Gong both had an agreement. He and Deng Guo also surrendered. If Wu Jiu sent troops to Peng Yu, he would be a villain who did not keep his word.
Everyone understands this truth, but it's not easy to say it directly. I didn't expect the young man to say it directly.
Wu Jiu couldn't help looking at the young man in surprise. The young man called Peng Yu his uncle, and he should be from the Peng family. Peng Yu immediately said, "What do you know, go away."
The young man just overheard it when he was passing by, and he seemed to be very straightforward, so he said something, and was scolded by Peng Yu, so he had to apologize and walk away.
Peng Yu's face was completely lost, and he was still thrown by his own family, so he had to leave resentfully.
Wu Jiu ignored Peng Yu who walked away angrily, but showed interest in the young man. At this time, Qi Hou walked over from the side, and it was just an internal matter of Chu State, so Qi Hou couldn't take care of it, so he had to stand Waiting on the side, now I found an opportunity and came over.
Qihou said in a low voice: "Second brother, you will be disgusted by looking at others like this."
Only then did Wu Jiu look away, just as the young man disappeared into the crowd, Wu Jiao said with a smile, "I'm just curious, who is that person?"
Qi Hou said with a smile: "Second brother should have known about this matter by asking Pan Chong. Gu Fang just saw Pan Chong talk to that man."
Wu Jiao was right when he heard it, so he took advantage of Pan Chong's coming to toast and asked about the young man. When Pan Chong heard it, Wu Jiao didn't need to describe it, and said with a smile: "My king doesn't know something, but our Chu A well-known idiot in the country."
Wu Jiu was even more curious, and Pan Fan explained that the young man was actually from the Peng family, he was a prisoner during the war with Shen Guo, he was the nephew of Baoshen and Peng Yu, and his name was Peng Zhongshuang.
As soon as Pan Chong mentioned the young man's name, Marquis Qi was the first to be a little surprised. Unexpectedly, it was Peng Zhongshuang. In his previous life, Marquis Qi had heard of the name of Peng Zhongshuang. He doesn't work hard, but he is a genius in using soldiers, helping Xiong Pei to expand the territory and consolidate the hegemony of the Chu State.
Wu Jiu had also heard of Peng Zhongshuang, who was one of the first two famous Ling Yins in Chu.
In the early days of Chu State, the position of Ling Yin did not exist, and Mo Ao was the supreme ruler of Chu State. Later, in order to avoid Mo Ao’s monopoly, the King of Chu established Ling Yin, and placed Ling Yin above Mo Ao. To control Mo Ao.
Peng Zhongshuang was one of the most famous Ling Yins in Chu State.
Pan Chong said with a smile: "Although he is named Peng, my king must not regard him as a Peng. The people of the Peng family almost hate his mouth."
Peng Zhongshuang has a bookish temperament, a very stubborn temper, and he doesn't know how to prevaricate others. He is also very accurate in judging people, and he is always outspoken. People don't know whether he is really stupid or not. Anyway, when he speaks, everyone doesn't like it. he.
In addition, Peng Zhongshuang is still young, so he has not been given important tasks at all, and no one treats him. If it is not because this is the banquet after enthronement hall, according to Peng Zhongshuang's level, he would not be able to enter the palace to attend the banquet.
Wu Jiu was very interested, Peng Zhongshuang was a talented person, he would definitely be used again in the future, maybe there would be surprises.
Wu Jiu was surrounded by many toasters, and soon they were surrounded again. Qi Hou knew that Wu Jiu's wine was not good, so he specially blocked the wine for him.
Princess Mi also attended the banquet. Princess Mi is the daughter of Xiong Pei. Since Xiong Pei passed away, Princess Mi's status in the palace has been bad. After all, Princess Mi is a daughter, not a man. Everyone is fighting for power. No one takes care of Princess Mi.
Princess Mi lived in seclusion and didn't show her face anymore. This time the banquet was grand, so Princess Mi was going to toast Wu Jiao for a glass of wine. After all, Wu Jiao was her uncle. Princess Mi also got along with Wu Jiao for a while before. Correcting this person is still very good.
Just as Princess Mi was about to come over to toast, she saw a woman walking in. The woman was very beautiful, walking swayingly, revealing an indescribably charming and seductive aura, with a pair of almond eyes raised up, as if she was full of affection .
And the woman still has a big belly, it looks like she is already ten months pregnant and is about to give birth.
When Princess Mi saw the woman, she hurried over to support her and said, "Aunt Li, why are you here, be careful."
That woman is the concubine of Xiong Pei, king of Chu, and Li Rong's princess is Li Ji, a famous femme fatale in history. Because she was captured by the state of Jin, she served the Marquis of Jin, but the Marquis of Jin is actually a eunuch. He himself knew best that it was bestowed by Wu Jiu, so the Marquis of Jin bribed Li Ji to King Xiong Pei of Chu.
Because of her eyebrows and eyes, and her ability to pretend to be weak, Li Ji was very much loved by the King of Chu, Xiong Pei. In history, Li Ji was also a eloquent person, relying on her beauty to frame the prince for molesting herself, and finally forced the prince to commit suicide. The future Jin Wengong fled all the way.
Li Ji knows a lot of ways to confuse people, and Xiong Pei also loves her beauty. It has been a long time since Xiong Pei passed away, but unexpectedly, Li Ji ruined Xiong Pei's child, who is about to give birth now.
Li Ji is considered to be Princess Mi's little mother. After Xiong Fei passed away, Princess Mi's treatment plummeted, but Li Ji was very kind to Princess Mi at this time. On the surface, Li Ji was kind to Princess Mi and comforted Princess Mi every day. Ji wanted to curry favor with Princess Mi, and Princess Mi knew that Li Ji was pregnant with her father's child, so she sent all her food and clothing expenses to Li Ji, for fear that her father would be gone and she would be wronged.
Li Ji is a scheming person, she just uses her lips to please Princess Mi, and Princess Mi has shallow thoughts, wishing that she can't afford to wear old clothes and give Li Ji the best.
Li Ji came out with a big belly, and Princess Mi hurried to help her, while Li Ji said to Aiai: "Princess, Li has a heartless request, please help Princess Mi, if Princess Mi doesn't help me, so will Li." I can't live anymore, woo woo woo..."
As Li Ji spoke, she even cried out, covering her eyes with her hands, whining loudly, very miserable.
Princess Mi hurriedly comforted her, fearing that she might be pregnant, and said, "Aunt Li, tell me, if there is anything I can do to help, I will do my best."
Li Ji then said: "I want to invite the princess to introduce me to the king."
Princess Mi is not young this year, and she can get married long ago. Although she is a little innocent, but when she heard this, she immediately understood Li Ji's meaning, and said in surprise: "This... this... Aunt Li, you... Now you are pregnant with the flesh and blood of Wangfu, how can... the king is Wangfu's brother."
Li Ji looked at Ai Ai, feeling very miserable, and said: "How can I not understand what the princess means? Li also wants to keep her chastity, but...but now the situation is like this, and Li is pregnant with the flesh and blood of the former king. How many people want to marry her?" Murdering the child in my womb, if I don't climb to the king, and don't get the king's favor and protection, how can I guarantee the life of the child in my womb? Princess, you must have pity on me. What is festival? Besides... besides, sister-in-law marrying younger brother has been a thing since ancient times, and it's not a big deal."
What Li Ji said is very pleasant, Princess Mi is really simple, she is not doing well these days, and Li Ji always complains when she comes here again, so Princess Mi also thinks that Li Ji is not doing well, in fact Li Ji uses her food to eat her , life can be nourishing, but now I want to live more nourishing, after all, Wu Jiao has no wife at all, not even a concubine, if Li Ji can get close to Wu Jiao, she can guarantee that relying on her beauty, she will definitely be able to Sit on the throne of Mrs. Chu.
Princess Mi felt a little bad, but she couldn't bear to refuse in her heart. If someone really framed Li Ji's child, what should I do? I am a weak woman. If I agree, I will be the princess, but if I don't, it will be the former king and princess. I have no power at all. , Li Ji kept crying again, Princess Mi couldn't bear it, so she nodded.
Princess Mi brought Li Ji to toast soon. Wu Jiao was taken aback when he saw Princess Mi at first glance. After all, Princess Mi looked exactly like his mother in his previous life.
Wu Jiu also thought of Xiong Fei's death, Princess Mi had no one to rely on, and he lived in the palace, he probably suffered a lot of grievances, Xiong Fei's death was also a part of Wu Jiu, Wu Jiu felt very dissatisfied when he saw Princess Mi now Fall off.
Princess Mi raised her wine glass and said, "Congratulations to my king."
Wu Jiu nodded and said, "There's no need to be too polite."
Qi Hou didn't know that Princess Mi looked like Wu Jiao's mother, but he felt that Wu Jiao looked at Princess Mi in a particularly strange way. If it wasn't because Princess Mi was Wu Jiao's niece, Qi Hou would have been jealous, so he knew. Qi Hou also drank a bowl of vinegar without hesitation.
Before Qihou finished eating Princess Mi's jealousy, he saw a plump woman with a big belly next to her. The woman was very beautiful. Qihou was taken aback when he saw it, because he recognized it.
When the Marquis of Qi was on an envoy to the Jin State, he also met Li Ji. Li Ji's beauty was unforgettable, but Li Ji was a vicious and vicious person. At that time, a doctor of Jin wanted to quell the chaos of Li Ji and kill Li Ji. Li Ji also asked Qi for help and wanted to serve Qi Hou, but Qi Hou did not agree.
Qi Hou knew Li Ji, but he didn't expect Li Ji to come to Chu State with a big belly. When Princess Mi introduced her, it turned out that Li Ji was the concubine of Chu King Xiong Pei. When Chu King Xiong Pei died, Li Ji I was pregnant, and now I am about to give birth.
When Qi Hou heard this, he squinted his eyes. If Li Ji's belly was the child of King Xiong Pei of Chu, the girl would be fine, but if it was a boy, it would be the orthodox royal blood of Chu. Wu Jiao had no heirs, so Li Ji This child of mine has a legitimate right of inheritance.
Thinking of Li Ji's character, Qi Hou frowned immediately, his eyes full of sternness.
Li Ji didn't pay attention to Qi Hou. After all, he didn't know that Qi Hou was reborn, and he had figured out his own nature. Li Ji had always been weak and weak, and others didn't know that she was a snake-hearted and unscrupulous person.
Li Ji looked very pitiful and bowed down to Wu Jiao Yingying. Wu Jiu didn't know who she was and thought she was Xiong Pei's concubine, but after hearing Princess Mi's introduction, Wu Jiao immediately understood.
The frail and weak woman in front of her is not inferior to Wen Jiangxuanjiang.
Wu Jiu didn't dare to let her worship him, but he didn't help her, because he was afraid that Li Ji would touch Ci'er, so he just smiled and said, "You don't need to be polite, sister-in-law, please get up."
Seeing that Wu Jiu was indifferent to her beauty, Li Ji raised her glass and said, "King Li Jing, have a drink."
She said, deliberately lowering her chest so that Wu Jiu could see her charming chest, and raised her hand to drink up the wine. When she raised her hand, her sleeves slipped a little, revealing Li Ji's white and tender arms. Leaving out some wine syrup, it is simply endless reverie.
Li Ji could be said to be scheming in every gesture, but she drank a glass of wine in a charming manner, and Wu Jiao looked at her indifferently, and Wu Jiao said flatly, "Sister-in-law is pregnant, it's better not to drink."
Li Ji was dumbfounded and didn't understand the situation at all, so Wu Jiao said: "Today's banquet is messy, sister-in-law should go back to rest as soon as possible, I will ask the maid to send sister-in-law back."
As he spoke, he waved his hands, and a few court ladies came over, "caught" Li Ji and left. Li Ji was so surprised, she turned her head frequently, with an unbelievable look on her face.
Princess Mi was relieved. After all, Li Ji was the concubine of the king's father, and she was pregnant with Liujia. Although it was for self-protection, it was also for the child's good, but if it really had anything to do with the new king, it would probably make people laugh.
When Wu Jiao saw Princess Mi, Princess Mi's complexion was not as good as before. It is estimated that because of Xiong Pei's death, Princess Mi's status is not as good as before.
Wu Jiao asked Princess Mi where she lived recently, and why he hadn’t seen Princess Mi for so long after entering Chu. Princess Mi replied somewhat disappointed. It turned out that Princess Mi had moved to a side hall long ago, which was very remote. In this place, there are not many maids around.
Wu Jiu immediately asked the eunuchs around him to deal with this problem, and asked Princess Mi to move back to the original place, still taking care of food and living as a princess, and assigned many eunuchs and maids to Princess Mi.
Wu Jiao's behavior made many people very strange. Logically speaking, Princess Mi is Xiong Pei's daughter, even if she is Wu Jiao's niece, she is not too close. I didn't expect Wu Jiao to be so kind to Princess Mi.
For a while, many envoys and monarchs came to marry Princess Mi again.
Seeing that Wu Jiu was so kind to Princess Mi, Qihou felt sour in his heart, but he didn't say it out, fearing that speaking out would affect his attitude...
Today is Wu Jiu's enthronement ceremony, he also dealt with Baoshen and Prince Li, got Hu Qi's autographed letter, and he won the first battle, so Wu Jiu was inevitably a little happy, so he drank a few more glasses of wine.
Wu Jiao drank a few more glasses of wine, and Qihou suddenly had a headache, because Wu Jiao was going to drink like crazy after drinking, and he had already started to be muddleheaded, laughing at everyone.
Qihou hurriedly stopped him and said, "Second brother is tired, let's go back and rest."
Wu Jiao nodded, he was about to go back when he was walking awkwardly, he walked out of the banquet hall and walked straight forward, Qi Hou saw that he had a sense of direction, but Wu Jiao kept walking, heading towards the lake. Li Tiao, Qi Hou hurriedly hugged Wu Jiao by the waist, dragged him back, and coaxed him repeatedly: "Second brother, second brother, go this way, not that way."
Wu Jiu protested, "I know, I know the way."
Qi Hou said softly: "Okay, okay, come on, walk this way, slow down."
Wu Jiu was dragged by Marquis Qi, and the two of them walked into the small bedroom. Wu Tang knew that Wu Jiu would definitely get drunk at today's banquet, so he made a strong hangover soup long ago, and when he saw them coming back, he went out to serve the hangover soup up.
Marquis Qi coaxed Wu Jiu into the small bedroom, and asked the eunuch and maids to go out first, and take care of Wu Jiu by himself, lest the reputation of the new king of Chu be ruined...
After drinking, Wu Jiu not only wobbled while walking, but also couldn't sit still on the mat. He collapsed after a while, lying limply on the ground like a baby.
Although the weather has warmed up, Qi Hou was afraid that he would be weak and catch a cold lying on the ground, so he quickly picked up Wu Jiu, let him lean in his arms, and said, "Who made you drink so much wine, it's uncomfortable now." ?”
As Marquis Qi said, he even scratched the bridge of Wu Jiu's nose. Wu Jiu snorted softly, squinted his eyes and said, "Because...Jiao is happy."
Qihou said with a smile: "Yes, yes, now the second brother is the king of Chu, and those bastards have also been taught a lesson, and they dare not do it again in a short time."
Wu Jiu smiled and said, "Well...it's not because of this."
Qihou said: "What else is there to be happy about?"
Wu Jiu looked at Qi Hou with soft eyes, and said with a smile, "Because Jiu is finally on an equal footing with the Lord."
Qi Hou was taken aback, then smiled and said: "That's not true, now the second brother is a head taller than Gu, Gu is the Marquis, and the second brother is the king of Chu."
Wu Jiu smiled and said, "That's right, you have to take good care of me."
Qihou said with a smile: "Then I have served you well, what rewards do you have?"
Wu Jiao thought for a while, because he was drunk, his reaction was very slow, and he curled his lips. That little gesture almost made Qi Hou cute, Wu Jiao said vaguely: "I reward you with twenty big bags!"
Qi Hou smiled and said: "Second brother, when you are alone, you only know how to eat? You don't eat buns."
Wu Jiu asked a little strangely: "Then what do you want to eat? Pancakes? Liangpi? Beef cakes?"
Listening to his counting, Marquis Qi leaned over with a smile, kissed Wu Jiu on the lips, and said, "I don't want to eat it, but I want to eat my second brother, on your king's couch."
As soon as Qi Hou said that, Wu Jiao fell silent. Qi Hou thought he was asleep, but when he looked down, Wu Jiao's eyelashes blinked twice, and then he said "um", as if he agreed.
Qi Hou's heart skipped a beat, then he stood up abruptly, picked up Wu Jiao horizontally, strode to the couch, and quickly put Wu Jiao on it.
Qihou smiled and said, "Second Brother, did you ask for this?"
Wu Jiu simply "let himself go" because he was drunk, grabbed Qihou's front collar, pulled him forward suddenly, raised his head, lifted his chin slightly, his cheeks were a little red with alcohol, Picking up his lips, he said, "Stop talking nonsense, and come to serve the widow."
When Qi Hou heard this, he was naturally willing, and with a soft "click", he hooked Wu Jiao's belt buckle. Just as Qi Hou was about to pull Wu Jiao's belt, Wu Jiao had already held Qi Hou down. He suddenly regretted it, and looked up at Wu Jiu.
Wu Jiu squinted his eyes and smiled brightly. He clamped his belt with his index finger and middle finger, but there was a soft "swish", the soft and delicate black belt made of silk made a sound of fabric rubbing, Following Wu Jiu's movement, he pulled it down.
Qi Hou watched him untie his belt, his breathing suddenly became heavy, and his eyes seemed to be able to spew fire, like a wild beast.
Wu Jiu's black robe slid down the side of the couch with a "crash"...
Tang Wu had already prepared the hangover soup, because last time Wu Jiu said it was very bitter when it was cold, so Tang Wu went to warm it up, who knew that when he came back with the hangover soup, he heard the sound coming from the inner hall of the small bedroom. There are strange sounds.
Because Wu Jiu was drunk, he didn't suppress his voice. Whether it was speaking or breathing, he was extremely enthusiastic. Tang Wu, who had always been calm, felt a little embarrassed when he heard it. He quickly ran away with the hangover soup. They closed the door.
Wu Jiu felt that he might have had a dream, if it wasn't for the dream, he wouldn't be so "presumptuous and bold" and would even be afraid of himself if he was bold!
Wu Jiu opened his eyes in confusion. As soon as he opened his eyes, he immediately felt very bad, as if he was not dreaming, because now he was hurting everywhere, and it was very strange, especially in some strange places.
Wu Jiu let out a "hiss", Qi Hou had already woken up, after all, it was getting late, and I'm afraid he would be able to have lunch in a while.
Qihou smiled, with a refreshed look on his face, his voice was a little hoarse and low, and he said, "Second Brother, how are you doing? The king I serve is comfortable?"
When Wu Jiu heard Qihou's voice, his face immediately turned red with a "boom". The thoughts of those fragments from yesterday slowly came back to his mind. The more he thought about it, the more he felt like he was possessed by an evil spirit.
Wu Jiu was a little embarrassed, coughed, and said, "It's okay."
Qi Hou said with a smile: "Huh? Is that so? But yesterday the king cried and shouted, and grabbed me several times, and finally passed out."
As Qihou said, he showed Wu Jiu his arm. Sure enough, there were several scratches on his arm. After all, Wu Jiu had no experience before.
Qi Hou seemed to be showing off his medals. Before Wu Jiu said that he was not good at technology, now Qi Hou is ashamed.
Qihou came over and said in a low voice, "Second Brother, is Gu powerful?"
Seeing his smug smile, Wu Jiao quickly pushed Qihou away, coughed, and said, "I'm going to get up."
Qihou didn't stop him, just leaned on the couch, with a very leisurely and thoughtful look, squinted his eyes, and said with a smile: "Second brother was very powerful last night."
Wu Jiu really couldn't listen anymore, Qi Hou is simply a scoundrel, Wu Jiu felt that his morality in this area was simply incomparable with him.
At this time, Ziqing's voice sounded outside, saying, "Your Majesty, have you got up? Xian Yin begs to see you."
Qihou originally wanted to make fun of Wu Jiu, but when Pan Chong came, he didn't know what it was, Wu Jiao wanted Ziqing to come in to serve him, but he looked down at his own red marks, and couldn't bear to see them, so he had to silently Put on your clothes.
Qihou turned over and sat up refreshed, and helped Wu Jiu put on his clothes attentively, and then called Ziqing in to take care of washing.
Pan Chong waited outside for a long time before he was summoned in, and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, the previous order Yin Baoshen seems to have suddenly contracted a serious illness."
Wu Jiu heard that Baoshen's official position had just been dismissed yesterday, and today Baoshen would not stop. gone."
Wu Jiu squinted his eyes, Baoshen has already fallen, and the person who visits Baoshen's family is probably the "true love", maybe they are confident, Baoshen is expected to be the elder of the two dynasties, and Wu Jiu, the new king Dare not touch him, maybe Baoshen is selling out for suffering, selling out for old age, and after Wu Jiu will release him, he will be re-appointed as Commander Yin, so many people are going to make connections.
Wu Jiu didn't show any special expression when he heard this, he just said quietly: "Baoshen is a veteran of the two dynasties, he is also old, and he is ill. I am a junior, so I should go and see him in person."
Baoshen was sick, and many people came to visit him in the morning. What everyone didn't expect was that a luxurious black car slowly stopped at the gate of Baoshen's Peng's mansion.
Wu Jiu was dressed in a black court robe, dressed very formally, and slowly walked down from the car. When everyone saw it, they all wondered if they were right. Wu Jiu was the new king, and he didn't dare touch Baoshen at all. Killing Baoshen, whether it is right or wrong, will lead to disrespectful public opinion, especially now that Wu Jiu has not completely controlled the court of Chu State. Naturally, there are many people with ulterior motives who will take advantage of this public opinion. Now Wu Jiu I'm afraid it's to convince the weak.
Everyone was waiting to see the liveliness of the new king, but Wu Jiu looked calm and relaxed, and naturally Marquis Qi also came to visit him.
Both of them were dressed in black, and they were led in by Mrs. Peng's servants. Ms. Peng rushed to greet them. Among them was Peng Yu who was seen at the banquet yesterday. The young man was standing at the back of Ms. Peng. The most idiot is Peng Zhongshuang.
Wu Jiu was led into the inner courtyard, Baoshen fell ill and was recuperating in the inner courtyard.
Walking this way, Peng's mansion is comparable to the royal palace of Chu State. Although this statement is a bit exaggerated, it is not an exaggeration at all compared to the palace of Qi State.
The whole Peng's mansion was built very grandly, and there was an endless stream of servants coming and going. It could be seen that since Baoshen became Xiong Pei's master, he was determined to make a lot of money, and Peng also relied on Baoshen's name. , From being a prisoner of Shen State, he became an important minister of Chu State.
Walking all the way in, it took a lot of time. Don't look at Wu Jiao who is so calm and unremarkable on the surface, but in his heart, he can't stand it anymore. Yesterday, Marquis Qi seemed like a wild beast, and Wu Jiao was a young man. Guadanzi has no experience at all, so it is inevitable that he will feel a little uncomfortable, especially after walking such a long way, it is even more uncomfortable.
But in order to maintain the majesty of being the king of Chu, Wu Jiu had no choice but to bear it by himself.
After walking for a while, he finally entered the inner courtyard. After the servants went in to report, they pushed open the door and asked Wu Jiu to come in.
When Wu Jiu walked in, Baoshen was lying on the couch, looking like he was sick in bed, but he didn't have a haggard face, and he didn't look like he was going to die of illness like the legend said.
Baoshen didn't get up, but said, "I'm sick, so I can't bow to my king, please forgive me."
Wu Jiu walked in, sat down in front of the banquet, faced Baoshen not too close away, and said with a smile: "What is the old man talking about? You are old and sick. I am just a junior, but You are just a mere king of Chu, how can I get you to stand up and salute?"
Baoshen heard Wu Jiu's implication, but pretended not to hear it, and coughed a few times, emphasizing that he was seriously ill.
Wu Jiu said with a smile: "When the old man was the teacher of Brother Wang, he was dedicated and loyal to his duties. Brother Wang often mentioned the loyalty of the old man to the widow, and the widow will always remember it."
Baoshen didn't know why Wu Jiu suddenly brought up this matter, it sounded like a compliment, but at the enthronement ceremony yesterday, they had already torn their skins open, there was no pretense at all, why Wu Jiu suddenly started to say these "hypocritical" words?
At this time, Wu Jiu smiled faintly and said: "Yesterday... I had a dream about my brother Wang who passed away. Brother Wang told me in the dream that he was in the underworld, and I missed the old man very much. Brother Wang made me Ask the old man, when will he be willing to go down...to accompany him?"
When Baoshen heard this, he was shocked, and his face instantly turned pale...
