The envoy of the State of Chen was the first to arrive at the capital of King Wu to mourn Xihou. With the arrival of the envoy of the State of Chen, envoys from other vassal states arrived one after another.On the eighteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, Zheng Yuming and Chu Chaohui's most anticipated Zhao Guo mourning mission's horse team entered the capital from the north gate.

Zhao Guo's envoy was named Wu Xian, who was trusted by Prince Zhao.He first offered incense in front of Xihou's coffin on behalf of King Zhao, and then went to meet the new king of Wu and handed over the letter of credence written by Zhao Xuan himself.

Wu Xian was more than 30 years old. He looked shrewd and capable on the outside, and his attitude was humble when he saluted King Wu Guoxin.

"The prince of the humble country heard that your country's treacherous concubine and treacherous ministers were in trouble, and immediately summoned troops to help your country eliminate the rebellious party. He didn't want to send troops into the Wei country when he heard that the previous king of your country had quelled the civil strife. Inherited the position of the lord of Wu. My prince was very happy when he heard the news, and he was glad that the people of your country were saved from disaster. It is a pity that God’s will tricks people. The wise lord of your country cannot live long. Hearing the sad news of your former king, the prince felt sad , I wanted to come to the king’s capital in person to express my condolences, but unfortunately, there are so many state affairs that I can’t escape, so I can only send a small minister as a representative to offer incense to the former king of your country, and congratulate the new king of your country on his successful succession to the throne.”

Wu Xian was very eloquent. Zhao Xuan thought of Wu Guolai's move to take a share of the action, and he said that he wanted to help Wu Guo quell the civil strife. As for why he entered Wei State under the banner of Beihou, Wu Xian didn't even mention it.

The envoy of Zhao, Wu Xian, came to offer condolences on behalf of the king and prince of the state of Zhao, and the ceremony of receiving the envoy of Zhao by the royal court of Wu had to be grand.The meeting was arranged in the main hall. Apart from Wu Wangsheng, Zheng Yuming, Chu Chaohui and important officials of the Wang court all attended the meeting ceremony.

Wu Wangsheng was wearing a black dragon and phoenix crown with rhombus patterns and a nine-pronged white jade beaded crown on his head. He sat on a high wooden platform in an orderly manner. Sitting on the throne on the wooden platform, there is an aura of majesty from the princes.

Standing on the left side of the wooden platform in the main hall are Zheng Yuming and Chu Chaohui, and on the right are Hushi General and Wei Ren. Wei Ren's position was originally where Wei Shen should stand, but after the burial of Young Master Guang, Wei Shen was disheartened. Two thatched houses were built next to the tomb of Gongzi Guang to live in, and he no longer cares about the affairs of the world.

Wu Xian handed the Chinese book to the waiter, and slightly raised his head to observe Zheng Yuming and Chu Chaohui.After he saw Zheng Yuming and Chu Chaohui's appearance clearly, he couldn't help being surprised.

Wu Xian has always believed that the only one who can be called the dragon among men is Zhao Xuan, the prince of his own country. Zhao Xuan is tall and handsome, not to mention his outstanding ability. On the other hand, but now in King Wu's court, there are two Zhao Xuans who are not inferior in appearance, and these two have different temperaments, but they are equally eye-catching, as if the sun and the moon meet each other.

The waiter took the letter of credence from Wu Mian, and did not give it to Zheng and Chu, as Wu Mian thought, but went up to the wooden platform, bent down and handed it to Wu Wangsheng.

"Ming, come here!" Wu Wangsheng wiped his tears and waved to Zheng Yuming.

Wu Xian's praise to Xihou just now made him miss his father again.Wu Wangsheng really wanted to cry loudly, but before he was about to cry, he remembered what Zheng Yuming said, only if he is a good ruler, will his father talk to him when he meets him in a dream. Crying loudly, so Wu Wangsheng held back not to cry, but kept wiping his eyes.

Zheng Yuming stepped up to the wooden platform, knelt and sat beside the table, took the credential from Wu Wangsheng and scanned it. "Waiter, read!"

The waiter bowed to accept the letter of credence, bowed to Wu Wangsheng, turned around and opened the letter of credence and read it aloud.

Zhao Xuan's words in the letter of credence were polite, but the meaning was not very polite. The letter of credence implicitly asked Wu Guo to let go of his throat. In exchange, Zhao Guoguo recognized Wu Wangsheng's status as the king, and the two countries divided Zhao and Wu according to the original Wu Wei border. country border.

"My Wu royal family follows the Great Qin succession system to inherit the throne. It is orthodox. How can there be anything wrong?" Chu Zhaohui smiled after hearing this. "But it seems that your country sent troops to destroy the Wei country without the consent of the emperor?"

Wu Xian frowned, Zhao Xuan's reason for Wei's use of troops was not fair, it could be said to be fabricated out of thin air, and the excuse of sending troops also made Zhao Xuan's face a bit disheartened.

"The royal family of Wei deceived people too much. The majestic young master raped and killed my prince's favorite concubine. Instead of punishing him, the king defended him. My prince suffered such a great humiliation, so he didn't hold back his anger for a while and sent troops to defend himself to seek justice, but after sending troops , My crown prince has sent an envoy to report to the emperor."

Zheng Yuming, who was kneeling beside Wu Wangsheng, really wanted to laugh. This prince of Zhao is very interesting. He wears a green hat so much that everyone in the Qin Dynasty knows it.

Wu Xian turned a blind eye to the uncontrollable expressions on the faces of the people in the main hall, and instead spoke eloquently: "Wei Guo was rude first, and it is reasonable for Zhao Guo to take Wei Guo's territory to eliminate shame."

"Yes, your country should seek justice from King Wei." Zheng Yuming held back a smile and nodded in agreement.

When Wu Xian heard Zheng Yuming's approval, he couldn't help being overjoyed. According to the information sent back from Wangcheng, Zheng Yuming's prestige and real power in Wu country surpassed that of the king, and he was the most powerful person in Wu country.Since Zheng Yuming agreed that Zhao Guo sent troops to Wu, it would not be difficult to get the throat city.

"The throat..."

Chu Chaohui interrupted Wu Xian suddenly: "In fact, my country's sending troops to the guards is just like your country's last resort."

"I have no choice but to?" Wu Xi was taken aback, the throat was obviously occupied by Wei Qing when Zhao Xuan left to attack King Wei's capital. Zhao Xuan underestimated the Wu soldiers in Qucheng at that time, thinking that Wei Qing and Zeng who had just killed Beihou You would only stick to Qucheng, not daring to send troops to make trouble, so there would be fewer troops to guard against at the throat. He didn't want to meet Wei Qing who was as bold as Wei Qing, and he took advantage of his loopholes.

"Many people in the throat city are Wu people. The king of Wei is greedy and tyrannical. He imposed taxes on our people at the throat. After our people's property was plundered by King Wei, they couldn't survive, so they had to go back to Qucheng for help. The prince of your country asked King Wei sent troops to seek justice for his favorite concubine, and our army sent troops to seek justice for the people of our country." Chu Zhaohui explained the reason slowly.

The border between Wei and Wu has never been guarded by heavy troops. Merchants from Wei and Wu can come and go freely. Many Wu merchants buy real estate in the throat city for convenience. They are Wu people who live in Wei. Wu Guoqiang has always been very polite to Wu businessman.

There was civil strife in Wu State, and King Wei felt that Wu State could no longer guarantee his position as a great vassal state, and the national power would decline severely. It was agreed that Zhao Guo's army would cross the border and interfere in Wu's internal affairs.After Zhao's army crossed the border, they also graciously offered grain, grass and jewelry.

Of course, all the food, grass and jewelry presented would not be taken out of the palace treasury, but would have to be taken from the people’s homes. The businessmen of Wu who lost the protection of the state were the first to bear the brunt, and their property was confiscated by King Wei.

"For the people of the state of Wu?" Wu Xi was dumbfounded. In order to have an excuse to attack the state of Wei, Zhao Xuan tried to get the young master Shi drunk, sacrificed a beauty, and put a green hat on his head to get the young master Shi. Zhao Hui easily found an excuse for Wu Guo to occupy his throat.

"Yes, just like the crown prince of your country is angry for the beauty, my Wu army will not hesitate to fight for the common people. This is the king of Wei's due retribution!" Chu Chaohui said righteously.

"..." Wu Xian was speechless, he wanted to refute Chu Chaohui, but he refuted Wu Guo's sending troops for businessmen, and Wu Guo must be questioning Zhao Xuan's cuckold.

"The city at the throat is King Wei's compensation for the violent expropriation of our country's businessmen. Whoever wants to get involved in this compensation, our country of Wu will fight to the death!" Chu Chaohui drew out his sword, and slashed at the green bronze tripod beside him, splitting off the copper. The corner of the tripod.

Sitting sadly on the wooden platform, Wu Wangsheng was first attracted by the argument between Chu Chaohui and Wu Mian, and then couldn't help applauding when he saw Chu Chaohui chop off a corner of the bronze tripod with his sword. "Good! Good! Chu Qing is mighty!"

Wu Xian looked at Wu Wangsheng. The intelligence said that Wu Guoxin's head was not very bright, but what he saw was a king who was respected by Wu's court ministers, knew how to be filial, and shared the same hatred with the ministers.

"Speaking of which, it's their luck that the people of the Kingdom of Wei will be replaced by the virtuous crown prince of your country and ruled by my benevolent king, envoy Wu, isn't it?" Zheng Yuming stood up and walked down the wooden platform, smiling gently at Wu Mian, he said The meaning here is not gentle, it is to ask Wu Xian to admit Wu's occupation of the throat, if Zhao admits it, Wu will also acquiesce in Zhao's embezzlement of Wei.

Wu Xian only felt that his eyes were dazzled, he couldn't help lowering his eyes, and after he settled his mind, he bowed to Zheng Yuming with great difficulty: "That's right, your son is right."

After Zhao's [-] troops destroyed Wei, due to the snowstorm, the supply of food and grass was not enough. Zhao Xuan didn't know much about the situation of Wei Qing and Zeng You's army. He only knew that Qucheng had enough food and grass, but he didn't know the equipment supplied by the valley. Arrow branches were also not available because of the weather, so I thought Wu Jun's military supplies were sufficient.Comparing the hatchback, Zhao Jun, who has a superior number, does not have much advantage in attacking the city.In addition, the news sent back by the spies of King Wu.Zhao Xuan deeply felt that he could no longer fight with Wu Guo. If Wu Guo fought against Zhao Guo regardless of everything, Zhao Guo would not only have no time to digest the annexed Wei Guo land, but would also fall into the abyss of tug-of-war, which would be very unfavorable to Zhao Guo.

Zhao Xuan sent Wu Xian as an envoy to King Wu to express his condolences. It was an idea to discuss peace. Of course, it would be best to get back the throat, or if not, use the throat as a boundary to divide the border between Zhao and Wu.

The envoys of Wu State and Zhao State reached an agreement to invade and defend the country and coexist peacefully. After dividing the border between the two countries, Chu Chaohui quickly issued two orders. Masonry and dirt.
