No correction

The king of Chu appointed Lu Jili as the general. To be honest, many factions in the court were not convinced, but the Dou family did not speak out.

After all, Dou Qi had already acquiesced that Lu Jili was the general, but Lu Chen, who was the suzerain of the Luo family, did not stand up, but stood silently by the side, and didn't say why from the beginning to the end, as if he was out of shape. He also closed his eyes a little, as if he was dozing off.

The people of the Luo family frequently winked at Luo Luchen, but Luo Luchen didn't see them at all, and "sleeped" until his chin dropped to his chest.

Some members of the Qu family also agreed to go to war, and some agreed to move the capital, but because the Dou family did not speak, and the suzerain of the Luo family was asleep, the Qu family did not speak.

The remaining clans of the Chu Kingdom also dared not speak up because their objections were invalid.

The state of Chu is not like the state of Qi in the past, when the state of Qi produced a large number of talents, and there was no clan power, the power of the clan in Chu state was criss-crossed, which can be described as a large network of intertwined roots.

To make a very simple analogy, if Wu Jiu didn't have a brain, he just grabbed the trunk of the protruding tree, ignored the thickness of the trunk, and just pulled out the soil, even if he was born with supernatural powers, he could pull out the big tree, but the one he pulled out would not be able to pull it out. Not just a withered trunk, but an intricate network of roots connected beneath the trunk.

The roots carry the soil, which is the state of Chu. The huge roots are so vast that no one can estimate how much soil they can carry. After they are pulled out, the soil is bound to loosen. The most frightening thing is that the soil of Chu is due to It is fertile, and the trees grow very densely. Group by group, family by family, they are all close together. You hook me up. After a big tree is pulled out, its roots will be involved in the roots of other trees. Uprooted.

At that time, Wu Jiu, the new king of Chu, who is a newborn calf, will probably be crushed to death by this big tree before he has been king of Chu for a few years. As well as the state of Chu, the roots of the trees have left the soil, and the soil If you are dragged loose, the final result may be that both sides suffer, the gain outweighs the loss, and it will cause public resentment.

Wu Jiu didn't think he was a fool. Unless he had a hole in his head, he would never confront these old Chu people, the veteran scholar-bureaucrats of Chu State. Wu Jiu knew in his heart that the reason why these scholar-bureaucrats of Chu State dared to I challenge myself head-on because they have the support of a large and deep-rooted group. If I pull one hair and move the whole body, but I am not enough to move them, the best result is to kill them step by step, first solve the root problem from the inside, and finally pull it out. Afterwards, the tree was found to be just a withered trunk, with no roots to speak of underneath.

At that time, neither the state of Chu nor Wu Jiu will be harmed, and it will be possible to eradicate the grass and roots.

Wu Jiu is not a whimsical person, and he does not want to be an incompetent person. Only incompetent people will complain in vain.

Although the court of the Chu Kingdom is still unstable, fortunately, Wu Jiu has subdued Dou Qi, the suzerain of the Dou Clan, and will marry Dou Bobi and Princess Yun when the affairs of the Yun Kingdom are settled. The entire Doujia was under Wu Jiu's control.

Wu Jiu smiled and said, "Scholars and bureaucrats, if there is no objection, then the court will be dismissed."

As soon as the court was dismissed, Lu Chen, who was still dozing off over there, suddenly woke up, quickly followed everyone to stand up and saluted, and then walked out of the hall first.

The people from the Ruo family kept calling him, but Ruo Luchen walked out as if he didn't hear him, and disappeared immediately.

Ruo Luchen was walking in front, and saw a person coming out from the slope, it turned out to be Dou Qi in official robes, Dou Qi walked out from the side with a smile, blocking Ruo Luchen's way.

Ruo Luchen hurriedly saluted and said, "Lord Mo Ao."

Dou Qi said with a smile: "Master Si Bai, your ability to pretend to be asleep is really perfect."

Lu Chen arched his hands, and said very sincerely: "It's not pretending to sleep, it's just because I worked late last night, and today was supposed to rest and take a bath, so I went to bed in the morning, and now I'm called into the palace, I'm really sleepy, so I'm so sleepy." would be rude."

Dou Qi listened to what he said, and said with a smile: "Lord Si Bai has offended many people from the clan."

Lu Chen said, "Lu Chen's temper has never been pleasant, and such things are inevitable."

Dou Qi said: "You don't care about the affairs of the Xirong people? The Xirong people have already reached Fushan, and just now someone from the Luo family said that they want to move the capital. Isn't Sir Sibai afraid?"

Lu Chen smiled and said, "What's there to be afraid of? Didn't the king already send a general with [-] troops to support him? Lu Chen is a pedantic nerd who doesn't know much about the principles of war, but he also believes in the king. As for the masters who moved the capital, Lord Lao Moao reminded us that Chu State has not proposed punishment measures for moving the capital without fighting before the battle, and it seems that the calendar should be changed."

Hearing what he said, Dou Qi couldn't help laughing, and said: "Master Si Bai, you are really getting more and more interesting. If you look like this, the Luo family will definitely not want to see you."

Lu Luchen said, "Thanks to Mr. Mo Ao's absurd praise."

Dou Qi said: "Forget it, Mr. Si Bai will go to formulate the calendar. Qi also wants to see it as soon as possible."

Lu Chen cupped his hands and said, "Lord Xie Moao can see it."

Dou Qi nodded, turned his head to leave, walked halfway, turned back again, narrowed his eyes and said: "Qi has never seen a family like you, be careful that you will die in the hands of your own people someday."

Lu Luchen said: "Thank you, Lord Mo Ao, for reminding me. If there is such a day, I will definitely give Lord Mo Ao a dream."

Dou Qi arched his hands, then turned his head and left.

Wu Jiu was going to let Lu Jili send troops, Pan Chong quickly ordered the soldiers and horses, and ordered the soldiers to step up their training and prepare to go at any time.

On this day, Wu Jiu was going to Xingyuan with Lu Jili. Lu Jili ordered troops, Wu Jiu reviewed them, and personally gave lectures to boost morale.

Marquis Qi was going to follow Wu Jiu, and brought a carriage or something, but he was dumbfounded when he got in the car, because besides Marquis Wu Jiu and Qi Hou in the car today, there was actually Lu Jili in the car!

After Qihou came in, he sat down silently, and silently glanced at Wu Jiu, who raised his eyebrows with a smile, and received Qihou's mournful gaze.

Lu Jili sat on the table, looking very respectful. This was not the first time he participated in the ride. He had participated in the ride after Lu Jili returned to the Chu Kingdom, but it was the era of King Wu.

Wu Jiu said with a smile: "I hope that the general will fight well for me."

Lu Jili hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "I will definitely live up to my king!"

Wu Jiu nodded, and Lu Jili suddenly said, "By the way, Your Majesty, I don't know who Ji Li's General Pi is...?"

Wu Jiu didn't speak immediately, but just played tricks, saying: "He is a man with outstanding martial arts, he is familiar with the art of war, and his mind is also flexible, but he has no military achievements. If he went to the military camp to be a soldier, wouldn’t it be a waste of his talent? That would be a loss to our country of Chu. Therefore, the widow named him a general to assist the general. The general must not despise him for being young and vigorous. .”

"Yes, I, Wang Yingming, will be carefully cultivated by Li Ding, but I don't know who this general is?"

Wu Jiu smiled and said, "You'll know when we get there, old acquaintance."

Lu Jili couldn't figure it out, but he still responded.

Soon the chariot arrived at the military camp in the outskirts. The army was about to set off directly from the city gate west of Yingdu to Fushan. Pan Chong had ordered the soldiers and horses and placed them all in the military camp. Soldiers.

Soon everyone arrived at the barracks. Wu Jiu, Qihou and Lu Jili got out of the chariot and put on a light cart. Wu Jiu boarded the cart first, holding the umbrella post with his hand.

The front of the barracks in the suburbs was wide, without any trees, and there was a huge wind blowing. Wu Jiu's black robe flapped in the wind, his skirts fluttered, but his waist was straight, which seemed to have a certain temperament.

After Wu Jiu pedaled, Qihou and Lu Jili also boarded the chariot, and someone drove the chariot, and the chariot headed for the barracks.

At the gate of the barracks, someone came to greet him, but Lu Jili still didn't see General Pi himself. The one who came to greet him was Zuo Shi, who joined the army. Zuo Shi invited everyone to enter the barracks.

With a smile on his face, Wu Jiu ordered people to enter the barracks. Soon, the cart made a brisk "grunt" sound and quickly entered the barracks.

Behind the gate of the barracks, two rows of black-armored warriors stood clangingly. The moment the chariot entered, the leading black-armored warrior pulled out his sword from his waist with a "chih-" and held it high. Following the previous moves, he pulled out his sword one after another. The sword reflected the noon sun, undulating and rolling like waves.

The car drove all the way forward, and soon heard the voices of the soldiers, saying: "Greetings to King Chu, King Chu Wannian—"

Wu Jiu looked at the soldiers in the two rows with a smile on his face, turned his head to Lu Jili and said, "General, how are the soldiers trained by General Bi? Are they still visible?"

Lu Jili frowned, watching carefully, as if he was looking for faults, but these black-armored warriors were all high-spirited, their movements were uniform, and they were very sonorous and powerful. , I can't pick out any thorns.

Lu Jili clasped his hands and said with a smile: "Back to the king, Ji Li has never seen such a sonorous soldier, and now he can't wait to meet this General Pi."

Wu Jiu smiled and said, "Then please go ahead."

Everyone continued to move forward, and even when they saw the last square team to greet them, the soldiers lined up and stood clangingly. Lu Jili saw a young man who was not tall from a distance, with his back turned to him, wearing a Hei Jia, holding a sword in his hand, was walking while admonishing the soldiers.

Looking at the back of the black-armored man, Lu Jili couldn't help but frowned. He felt very familiar, and had an illusion in his heart. When the car was approaching, the black-armored General Pi immediately turned his head when he heard the sound. When the car arrived, there was a burst of joy on his face.

Lu Jili saw the face of General Pi clearly at a glance. He was wearing a black armor, a black helmet on his head, and a sword on his waist. His countenance will not change.

It turned out to be Lu Yangchuang!

Lu Yangchuang hurried over, clasped his fists to everyone and said, "Yangchuang pays respects to King Chu, Duke Qi, and General."

Lu Jili couldn't help but be surprised for a moment, and wanted to ask him why he was here, or what kind of general he was, but because both the King of Chu and the Duke of Qi were there, it was difficult for Lu Jili to ask.

Wu Jiu smiled and said, "General, General Pi, are you satisfied?"

Lu Jili didn't know what to say for a moment, he just paused for a moment, and then said: "Bi general is a young talent."

Wu Jiu smiled again, and said, "That's true, General Bi is very skillful, and he is still a proud student taught by the young master, and he is not too young, it's time to make meritorious deeds."

When he said that, Lu Jili had no way to refute.

Lu Yangchuang cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, Duke Qi, General, you have been exhausted all the way, please enter the shogunate first."

Wu Jiu smiled and said, "General Pi will lead the way."

It was also Lu Yangchuang's first time as General Pi, and there were still many things he didn't understand, but he had a decent face and immediately led everyone in.

Wu Jiu entered the shogunate and was about to give a lecture to the officers and men. Taking advantage of the inattention of others, Lu Jili grabbed Lu Yangchuang's wrist, dragged him aside, and said in a low voice, "Why are you here?"

Lu Yangchuang said happily: "Father, the king has promised to let Yang Chuang go to war."

Lu Jili whispered: "Do you know what you are doing? This is not a joke! Do you know how dangerous the battlefield is?!"

Lu Yangchuang immediately said: "Father, my son is not young anymore, Yang Chuang knows what he's doing, so he's not joking... Besides, Yang Chuang knows that the battlefield is dangerous, so he can't let Dad go to the battlefield alone."

Lu Jili wanted to speak, but Lu Yangchuang interrupted him, saying: "The king gave Yang Chuang this opportunity, and Yang Chuang will never let the king down, and he will never let you down. , Dad, you seldom go home, so you probably don’t know that Yang Chuang is not the little baby who only knew how to cry when he was a child, Yang Chuang has grown up now, and has martial arts, and it’s time to show it.”

Lu Jili looked at Lu Yangchuang, Lu Yangchuang still had a smile on his face, but he had never been so firm now, it seemed that no one could question and refute, Lu Jili didn't know what to say, and finally he just choked out a sentence: " what ever."

Lu Yangchuang hurriedly said: "Father, how about the soldiers and horses trained by Yang Chuang? Is it okay?"

Lu Jili said solemnly: "General Pi, since you have entered the barracks, you should know the rules of the barracks, and don't bark indiscriminately in the future."

Lu Yangchuang hurriedly said, "Yes, General!"

After Wu Jiu’s lecture, the army was about to set off in a few days. After all, they were going to reinforce the army, and the sooner the better, Wu Jiu personally sent it to the gate of the west gate of Yingdu, and toasted Lu Jianli and Lu Yangchuang: "The widow will first wish the general, and the flag will be victorious!"

Lu Jili quickly picked up his wine glass and said respectfully: "I will definitely live up to my expectations!"

He said, drank the wine in the wine glass, and then got on his horse. Lu Yangchuang quickly got on his horse and looked back at Wu Jiao. Fluttering in the wind, it made a grinning sound, and soon the mighty team stretched into a long black dragon, getting farther and farther away, more and more blurred, and finally disappeared.

Wu Jiu was riding on the horse, and Qihou said, "Second brother, go back, it's too windy here."

Wu Jiu nodded, turned his horse's head, and headed towards the palace.

Lu Ji and Li Shuai's troops set out to fight, and there were constant voices of questioning from the court. In about a month, the good news came from the front line.

At that time, Wu Zheng was in the early court, and the good news came very suddenly.

The scholar-bureaucrats are still questioning that Lu Jili has been rushing to the front line for as long as a month, and there is no movement at all, and there is no return. Report the progress and so on.

A scholar-bureaucrat said: "The general has surrendered to the enemy, hasn't he?"

What he said caused a small commotion in the Lu bedroom. At this moment, a soldier shouted and rushed into the Lu bedroom. Everyone saw that he was holding an emergency report in his hand. here.

The soldier hurried in and said out of breath, "Your Majesty! Good news! Good news!!"

Wu Jiu stood up from his seat and said: "Good news, quickly submit it for the widow to see."

As soon as the scholar-bureaucrats said that Lu Jili had defected to the enemy, the good news came. It was an instant slap in the face. The eunuch presented the document. Wu Jiao opened it up and laughed immediately, saying, "Come on, who said that the widows are here?" Your general has defected to the enemy, you come and read this... victory report."

The scholar-bureaucrat's face was pale, but he didn't dare to openly resist, so he stood up and read the victory report. The army of Lu Jili and Lu Yangchuang had arrived at the Fushan battlefield, and they had won the first battle.

In the victory report, it was also reported that the first-class meritorious service was Lu Yangchuang. As a general, Lu Yangchuang led his troops to fight the enemy bravely. As a vanguard, he lured the enemy into a dangerous situation. The Chu army won the first battle and captured many Xirong people. , and seized a large amount of food and weapons from Xirong.

After the scholar-bureaucrat finished reading, everyone looked at him as if watching a show, and the scholar-bureaucrat had to retreat to his seat in disgrace, not daring to speak any more.

Wu Jiu said with a smile: "Fushan great victory, I did not misunderstand the wrong person, and I did not use the wrong person. The soldiers fought hard against the Xirong people. Although I am far away in Yingdu, I should do my part. Pass the order down to reward the three armies." , transport food, grass and food to the barracks."

Wu Jiu's reward had just come out, and before everyone had time to receive the imperial edict, another soldier ran in and said, "Your Majesty! Prince Qin is back!"

Zhao Jia and Feng Shu went to Qin as envoys and finally came back from Qin. Wu Jiu immediately said, "Please!"

Zhao Jia and Feng Shu were outside the hall, and quickly strode into the hall, the two came side by side, bowed down and saluted, Zhao Jia cupped his hands and said: "Jia has lived up to my king's entrustment, Qin has promised to send troops, and We, Chu State, join forces to attack Yong State."

Feng Shu also cupped his hands and said: "And I would like to congratulate my king. Because Yun State heard that the relationship between Qin State and our Chu State is in a vertical relationship, the State of Yun was so frightened that it broke the contract, formally broke with the State of Yong, and offered to lend the map of the State of Yun to Qin sent troops to seek reconciliation."

When Wu Jiu heard this, he couldn't help laughing. Yun Guo is a fool. Before Yun Guo agreed to form an alliance with Yong Guo, it was because Yong Guo was the leader of the barbarians. The Xirong people had already attacked Fushan, and they thought it would be profitable. , so it is natural to form an alliance with Yongguo, delusional to take a share of the pie after swallowing Chu.

Now the great victory in Fushan must have been known by the state of Yun, and now the state of Qin is going to send troops from behind to attack the state of Yong. In this way, the state of Yun must be afraid. Qin State has always had the reputation of a country of tigers and wolves, so how could Yun State be able to bear the enemy's front and back? Naturally, it was immediately frightened and came over to surrender.

Not only surrendered, but even used the excuse to send troops to Qin, Wu Jiu thought, Yongguo must hate Yunguo to death, and now the people of Yongguo must understand what pig teammates are.

Wu Jiu laughed, and said, "Very well! Mr. Qin and Xian Yin have made meritorious service, and they are loyal to the state of Chu. I must reward you heavily."

Everyone did not expect that the Fushan battle with Xirong would be resolved so easily, and Yongguo seemed to be taking something out of pocket. With the help of the people of Qin, even if Yongguo was the leader of the barbarians, he was still suffering from the enemy.

Besides, even though it is the leader of the barbarians, Yongguo is not the suzerain of those foreign races. Foreign races have their own countries or tribes, and they all want to benefit their own country and tribe. Now that Yongguo is facing enemies, who would dare to cooperate with Yongguo? , there is no profit to be made, Yongguo is just a mountain country with not enough land, it is not worth mentioning at all.

The situation suddenly turned into a major reversal, and many scholar-bureaucrats who moved the capital also began to fall to the main combat faction.

But Dou Qi frowned, as if he had something to say, but he didn't say anything in the end, and soon the court meeting was broken up. Because of Chu's victory in the first battle, many scholar-bureaucrats were in high spirits, and they walked out of the Lu palace after chatting freely.

Wu Jiu stood up and watched everyone go out, but Dou Qi was sitting there, as if he still had something to say, so he smiled, "If Mo Ao has anything to say, let me follow you."

Wu Jiu brought Dou Qi out of the Lu bedroom and arrived at the small bedroom. Qihou couldn't discuss with the court, so he naturally stayed in the small bedroom. He was eating his own extra meal after breakfast, and he took out a piece of marinated rice from somewhere. Qingfang, Qi Hou, this weird foodie, is actually drinking a little wine with Qingfang!

As soon as Wu Jiu entered the small dormitory, he could smell this wonderful smell, and Qi Hou still ate it with great relish. In fact, Qi Hou didn't want to drink and eat Qingfang's because it was too salty. But he couldn't find the steamed corn bread, and he couldn't fry it himself, so he could only eat Qing Fang dryly, but because it was too salty, he drank some sweet wine.

Wu Jiu's eyelids twitched suddenly, he really regretted letting Dou Qi into the small bedroom, Dou Qi also twitched his eyelids, silently lowered his head, pretending not to see.

Qihou wanted to stand up to greet him, holding half of Qing Fang in his hand, but when he looked up, he saw Dou Qi, and knew that he was not decent enough, so he raised his hand and stuffed half of Qing Fang into his mouth inside.

Wu Jiu felt for a moment that Marquis Qi might suffer from high blood pressure, because Qing Fang was pickled, and he ate half of it in one go, and it didn't burn, so he would definitely fly up with salt.

Qi Hou quickly swallowed Qing Fang, as if he was afraid that others would snatch it from him, and then wiped his mouth, but Qing Fang's thing is really not something that Qi Hou can solve by wiping his mouth gracefully.

Wu Jiu smiled and said to Dou Qi very gracefully: "Mo Ao, please wait a moment."

Dou Qi hurriedly said empathetically, "My king please let me go."

Wu Jiao quickly turned his head, his smile disappeared instantly, and with a frightening face on his face, he coaxed Qihou into the inner hall of the small bedroom and asked him to wash his mouth.

Qi Hou diligently gargled his mouth, feeling that his lips were getting thinner, so Wu Jiu let him go. After all, Dou Qi was still outside, so he couldn't be negligent, so he went out, and Qi Hou hurriedly followed behind.

Ziqing and Tang Wu hurriedly opened the window so that the small bedroom could be ventilated and blow out the green smell.

After waiting for a while, Dou Qi finally saw Wu Jiu and Qi Hou come out. After Qi Hou washed his clothes, he became neatly dressed again. If Dou Qi hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't believe that it belonged to Qi Hou. He must have thought it was a fake. of.

Because who would have thought that the mighty overlord of Qi, although he was the former monarch, was also the former monarch who pushed Qi to an unprecedented hegemony position, and he turned out to be an out-and-out foodie, and he was always playing tricks.

Dou Qi thought to himself, how can the king be able to bear it, he really deserves to be the king...

Wu Jiu said: "Master Mo Ao, do you have anything to say? Now that there are no outsiders, you can say it."

Dou Qi nodded, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, what Qi wants to talk about is actually about the general."

Wu Jiu said, "Lu Jili?"

Dou Qi nodded, and said: "Your Majesty, Lu Jili is already Lu Zi, and now he has become a general and won the first battle. It can be said that he has made great achievements. If the general is lucky enough to win all the way and come back triumphantly, Qi dares to say Please, the king, stop rewarding the general, especially in terms of military power."

Wu Jiao narrowed his eyes and said, "Is there something in Mo Ao's words? Could it be that Mo Ao also thinks that Lu Jili is not trustworthy? Just because Lu Jili is not from my family?"

Dou Qi sighed and said, "It's not because of this. Although there are many old Chu people in Chu State, they don't wholeheartedly benefit our Chu State because of clan struggles. On the contrary, there are many outsiders who are loyal to our Chu State..."

Dou Qi continued: "General Lu is one of these loyal ones. If it was before, Dou Qi also believed in General Lu's character, but..."

As Dou Qi spoke, he paused, and Wu Jiao said, "Just what? Mo Ao, what's the secret?"

Dou Qi nodded and said, "There is indeed a hidden story, and it started more than ten years ago."

Just when Lu Jili won the battle and everyone else was happy, Dou Qi couldn't be so happy, because he had some grudges in his heart, which Wu Jiao didn't know about, and Dou Qi felt it was necessary to let Wu Jiao know.

Dou Qi said: "After all, although you don't have the intention to harm others, you must have the heart to guard against others. If my king doesn't know about this, and General Lu has a deep hatred, I'm afraid..."

Wu Jiu said, "Let's be honest, Mo Ao, what is it that made Mo Ao so bitter and General Lu so bitter?"

Dou Qi thought for a while and said, "At that time, General Lu had just surrendered to our Chu State..."

More than ten years ago, King Wu sent troops to destroy the Kingdom of Ludi, and made the Kingdom of Ludi a subsidiary of the Kingdom of Chu. King Wu planned to choose another son from the nobles of the Kingdom of Ludi, and that would be Lu Jili.

At that time, Lu Jili was young and vigorous, King Wu named him Lu Zi, and gave him military power without any grievances, and let him be a general in Chu State. Soon, Lu Jili surrendered sincerely, and King Wu was kind to him. , Lu Jili is very grateful.

After that, Lu Jili's power expanded rapidly, and he won several battles for Chu, but everyone in Dou Qi and the Dou family knew that King Wu was actually a very suspicious person, so it was impossible for Lu Jili to Leading troops to fight alone, every time in battle, Lu Jili is either as a lieutenant general, or is followed by a lieutenant general from Chu State, for fear that Lu Jili will rebel.

Later, Lu Jili became more and more loyal because of his kindness, but King Wu still felt that it was not enough. He wanted to control Lu Jili, and planned to marry the daughter of the clan to Lu Jili, and let him be the son-in-law of Chu State. You can use marriage to control Lu Jili.

At that time, Lu Jili had a woman he liked very much, and that woman was King Wu's clan sister. Although she was not a princess, she was just a country girl with a high status. She often went to the palace and met Lu Jili several times.

Lu Jili loves King Wu's clan sister, but she has never been favored. That sister doesn't seem to like people like Lu Jili, and instead caused a scandal with King Wu.

King Wu is the king of the Chu Kingdom, and it is absolutely impossible for him to marry his clan sister. If it spreads out, people might laugh at him, but there was a scandal at that time, and many people knew about it. pregnant.

Wu Jiu was a little surprised and said, "That child..."

Dou Qi sighed, didn't pick up the topic, and continued: "At that time, our Dou family... Dou family was treated coldly because of being suppressed by the former king. Make a plan, let the former king secretly send the sister away, stay away from the capital, and go to take care of yourself first..."

King Wu was also afraid of scandals, so he agreed to send his sister away. The sister didn't want to leave, but there was no other way. She had been pregnant for more than two months, and she would be three months soon. No matter how loose the clothes were, she would show her appearance. Absolutely no way, I'm afraid I will be ridiculed, illegitimate childbirth is enough to be used as a laughing stock, not to mention that the father of this child is actually her elder brother Wu Wang.

If this matter were to spread, it would be enough to cause chaos in the world.

Zongmei had no choice but to be sent to the border of Chu State by King Wu. However, at that time, Chu State was not peaceful, and an enemy army attacked the border of Chu State unexpectedly. Lu Jili was ordered to crusade against the enemy army and rescued Zongmei.

Dou Qi recalled: "At that time...General Lu was seriously injured and almost died for the sake of the clan princess. So the Dou family thought of another good way to curry favor with the former king."

Dou Qi sighed again. At that time, the Dou family was in decline. Ruo Ao's meritorious service was so powerful that King Wu had already noticed it and began to suppress the Dou family. The Dou family members were not only thinking about Chu, but also thinking about themselves. They Fighting desperately for the state of Chu, the end result is being suppressed. Such a result is unacceptable to the Dou family.

Both Dou Bobi and Dou Qi at that time were young and vigorous, so the Dou family actively thought of a way for King Wu, and thought of another way to cover up the scandal.

That is to marry Zongmei to Lu Jili...

Lu Jili is infatuated with Zongmei, everyone can see that, Zongmei was pregnant for more than three months at that time, and she was about to reveal herself, but King Wu was unwilling to kill the child, and just wanted to find Zongmei to marry Lu Ji Li, to win over Lu Jili's influence, in this way, it just happens to kill several birds with one fell swoop.

Dou Jia made this suggestion, anyway, Zongmei can't see Lu Jili before she gets married, and Lu Jili doesn't know about Zongmei's pregnancy.

At that time, as long as the ceremony is complete, Lu Jili will be a foreigner after all, how could he break his face with King Wu because of this kind of thing, they both need marriage to maintain, and King Wu will give Lu Jili a promotion to bring some sweetness, Lu Jili He is about to help King Wu raise his children.

Lu Jili was very happy when he heard that the princess of the clan was going to marry him. He was very happy. He thought it was his own sacrifice to save her life, and in exchange for the favor of the princess, he thanked King Wu and actively worked hard for the marriage. Soon, Lu Jili Li Bian married the princess of the clan.

However, on the night of the wedding, Lu Jili knew that the princess he admired in his heart did not admire him at all, but because she was pregnant and the identity of the child's father could not be revealed, so she used herself as a cover.

Lu Jili desperately rescued the princess, but he did not expect to have a cheap son. When he got married, the princess was already seven or eight months pregnant, and she would give birth in a few months.

Dou Qi said: "General Lu is deeply affectionate. All this is the fault of the Dou family. It is not the fault of General Lu. It is the Dou family who used all means to preserve their status. However, it is ridiculous that the Dou family did not protect their position in front of the former king." My own status has harmed General Lu instead."

Since then, although Lu Jili has been promoted to an official position, he has stopped fighting on the battlefield. If there is a battle, Lu Jili will also make excuses. After King Wu died of illness, Lu Jili came out again.

Wu Jiu had a look of surprise, while Qi Hou had a look of "you see", Wu Jiu said, "That child..."

Dou Qi nodded and said, "It's Lu Yangchuang."

Although Wu Jiu had guessed it before, he never expected that Lu Yangchuang was really his own younger brother. Lu Yangchuang's full color blindness may also be due to this relationship. After all, the chance of color blindness is very small, but King Wu and his sister had a scandal , the probability of achromatopsia with the Luyan window will be much greater.

There is also Lu Jili's attitude. Lu Jili doesn't like Lu Yangchuang. Everyone knows this. Many people think that it is because of Lu Yangchuang's "disability", but this is not the case. Lu Yangchuang is the king of Wu and his sister. Lu Yangchuang's son looks so much like King Wu and Zongmei, and Lu Yangchuang has a deep affection for Zongmei, and he will not hesitate to fight with his life. In this way, how can Lu Jili like Lu Yangchuang.

I'm afraid that as soon as Lu Jili saw Lu Yangchuang, he would think of the scandal between King Wu and Zongmei, but he needed to cover up such a scandal, and Lu Jili did nothing wrong.

That day Lu Jili asked Dou Qi, "Could it be Ji Li who was wrong?" At that time, Dou Qi had no way to answer him, because Dou Qi knew that the resentment in Lu Jili's heart was justified. Has passed away, but their son is still there, Lu Jili can not face Lu Yangchuang.

Dou Qi sighed and said: "It's not General Lu who's wrong, it's the fighters who do anything for the sake of power, Dou Qi is guilty, but now that the big mistake has been made, Dou Qi is afraid, after all, General Lu treats Yang Chuang so well. Bearing grudges, Dou Qi was afraid that General Lu would hold a grudge, so Dou Qi begged the king to take back General Lu's military power immediately after General Lu's triumphant return. He is not a kind person, so he can only use the worst malice to speculate on General Lu."

Wu Jiu listened, and sighed a little, the noble circle was really messed up, I don't know where the love of King Wu remained, Wu Jiu was one, and so was Lu Yangchuang, no wonder Lu Yangchuang and Wu Jiao looked so similar, it turned out that they were not at all. It is a brother.

Wu Jiu thought for a while and said: "Mo Ao, I understand what you mean, but General Lu did not do anything wrong in this matter. If General Lu did not do anything wrong because of one thing, General Lu will only It will make the matter worse, General Lu is indeed loyal to Chu State, the root cause of the misfortune should not be covered up with jealousy, but with gifts and trust, to win General Lu over."

Listening to Wu Jiu's words, Dou Qi sighed a little, and said: "I, Wang Yingming, Dou Qi has always kept this in mind, besides, General Lu has never liked Mr. Lu very much, Dou Qi is just afraid..."

Wu Jiu smiled and said: "Mo Ao, you are wrong. Although General Lu has always had a grudge against Yang Chuang, everyone can see it, but I am afraid that after a long time, General Lu also cares about Yang Chuang. Did Mo Ao forget how nervous General Lu was when Yang Chuang was injured in the hunting ground?"

When Dou Qi was reminded like this, he seemed to remember that at that time Lu Jili rushed out of the valley with Lu Yangchuang in his arms like crazy, and even guarded him for a day and a night. Lu Yangchuang was meticulous, but when Lu Yangchuang woke up, he was indifferent.

Wu Jiu said: "I'm afraid General Lu will not be able to lose face. When General Lu returns triumphantly, I will make an appointment as my late father, and I will plead guilty in person."

Dou Qi was taken aback, he didn't expect Wu Jiao to plead guilty on behalf of King Wu, this kind of generosity is beyond the reach of an ordinary monarch.

Dou Qi said again: "Your Majesty, this is my Dou family's fault, not yours, and I should be pleading guilty to my Dou family."

Wu Jiu smiled and said: "The Doujia made a mistake, the mistake was greed, Mo Ao has already learned from it, I am very comforted in my heart, the late father was also at fault, this is something that cannot be shirked."

Immediately, Dou Qi was filled with emotion, and cupped his hands and said, "My majesty, I will surely be able to reach the top of the world in the future! Dou Qi admires it!"

Dou Qi talked about the events of that year, feeling a little more at ease in his heart, and soon left, Wu Jiu sent Dou Qi away, Qi Hou clicked his tongue, as if he was reminiscing about Qing Fang
