Chapter 275

After Wei Xiang finished speaking, the Shi family and his son were shocked at the same time.

The Scholar subconsciously wanted to raise his hands, and suddenly remembered the many etiquettes he had read in the Emperor's Library during this period, and immediately let go.

Shi Hui said slowly, "Why do you think so?"

Even when he was not talking, the beard on his chin was trembling slightly, which means that the old man was actually quite unhappy.

Wei Xiang thought about it seriously and said, "Because the King of Chu is this person."

Shihui said: "How about the King of Chu?"

Wei Xiang said: "The King of Chu is a real hero, so as long as a minister advises him, he will understand the huge negative impact of annexation of Chen's state on Chu in the international arena, thus abolishing this stupid behavior. If my uncle left Luoyi because of this matter and stopped studying the law of the emperor, he would have walked a few days on the road before he heard the news of Chen's restoration, and the matter of Chen was not discussed at that time, and the legislation that Jun Hou had not been completed, wouldn't it be very embarrassing?"

The Shihui looked at Wei Xiang suspiciously, with a clear expression of suspicion on his face: "So what you mean is that I don't need to go back at all?"

Wei Xiang nodded and said, "Yes. Since the Chen State has not perished, then the Jin Dynasty does not need to hold an emergency meeting. Since there is no emergency meeting, you naturally only need to continue studying here. Now the Xun family and Zhao family are fighting hard because Luan family is fighting, so my uncle is asking for trouble when he returns."

The scholar pondered for a long time, and the light in his eyes kept flashing.

Shi Xie hesitated aside and said, "Father, I think you might as well listen to Wei Xiang's words."

Shi Hui was furious and glared at Shi Xie: "When did you, a bad boy, be led by him, a bad boy?"

Shi Xie shrank his neck and felt wronged.

I think our Shixie is also a gentleman praised by everyone in the Great Jin Dynasty. Why did you become a ignorant boy who is ignorant and irrational every day?

The President of Shi breathed a sigh of relief and said to Wei Xiang: "Five days, up to five days. If no news comes within five days, I will personally admire you for twenty sticks."

Wei Xiang was immediately happy: "Is this a bet? If you lose the bet, I can ask you for a bet, right?"

A moment later, Wei Xiang and Shi Xie escaped from the lobby barefoot in a very embarrassed manner.

Shi Xie said angrily: "It's all your fault. You say you don't want to bet. Even I am affected by you."

Wei Xiang said aloud and looked at Shi Xie disdainfully: "Can you still be considered a man if you don't gamble?"

Shi Xie was speechless and decided to change to a topic: "You really know that Chen State can restore the country just because of your understanding of the King of Chu?"

"Of course that's more than that, there are other reasons."

"what else?"

"The dragon's hint to me!"

"Pooh."

The capital of Chen State.

The King of Chu sat in the head of the palace, and many ministers and generals of Chu were standing beside him.

The King of Chu stared at a woman kneeling in front of him, feeling a little lost.

This is a woman in her thirty-five to forty years. Although her imprisonment made her a little embarrassed, her bright clothes and her tempting body clearly showed her temptation.

Even her trembling kneeling there gave people a strong desire to conquer her.

She is Xia Zhengshu's mother, Xia Ji.

After a moment, the King of Chu breathed a sigh of relief and looked around: "I want to bring this girl into my palace, how about?"

Many ministers of Chu looked at each other and saw disappointment and regret in their respective eyes.

Suddenly a minister stood up and said, "King, I think this matter must not be done. Chen Hou destroyed his country because of his daughter, which shows that this woman is an ominous person. There are many beauties in the world, why should the king bring an unknown daughter into the palace?"

This minister of Chu was named Qu Wu, who was a doctor of the Qu family of Chu.

As soon as Qu Wu spoke, many ministers of Chu immediately agreed.

"Yes, yes, this girl is unknown!"

"Your Majesty, you don't have to marry this girl."

"Master, don't take risks."

The King of Chu was silent for a while, and the desire gradually faded into Xia Ji's eyes. He sighed and said, "The second and third sons are right. I will not accept this girl anymore."

No matter how seductive a woman is, of course, not as good as the Chu country.

After the King of Chu finished speaking, the hall was quiet for a moment, and many ministers of Chu were eager to try.

Qu Wu's eyes flashed and he was about to leave the line, when suddenly a person next to him took the lead and knelt towards the King of Chu.

"The king, my wife has just died and there is a shortage of a daughter in my family. I also asked the king to give this daughter to me as my wife."

Qu Wu was furious and looked up and found that it was another minister of Chu, Lian Yin Xiang.

The King of Chu looked at Mr. Lian Yin Xiang with a strange look: "Are you not afraid of this woman's unknown?"

Lian Yin Xiang Lao smiled and said, "Why do you have this girl to die if you get it!"

The hall was quiet again, and the faces of the king and minister of Chu became more and more strange. Many people secretly hated why they didn't speak first, and many people secretly hated why they were even Yin Xiang's first.

The King of Chu was stunned for a while and suddenly laughed out loud: "Okay, that's right! Since that's the case, Xia Ji will give you a wife!"

Lian Yin Xiang was overjoyed and then took Xia Ji out of the palace after thanking her.

After the old Yin Xiang and his wife left, the King of Chu was in a state of indifference and was about to announce the resignation when someone suddenly reported: "King, Uncle Shen returned from his envoy to Qi and is waiting for him to see him outside the hall."

Shu Shen was a minister whom the King of Chu trusted very much, so the King of Chu said, "Then call him in."

A moment later, Shen Shushi entered the palace: "I have met the king."

When Shen Shushi went to Qi, he mainly wanted to win Qi in diplomacy.

Qi State was also a prince and chief of the princes back then, but now the national strength is only among the princes in the world and is only under Jin and Chu. It is definitely a force that cannot be underestimated.

The King of Chu said: "Mr. Qi has any objection to me destroying Chen Ke?"

Uncle Shen said: "No."

The King of Chu said: "What about the Song and Lu countries you passed by on the way?"

Uncle Shen said: "No."

The King of Chu's face changed slightly, and he said with some displeasure: "During Uncle Shen, I destroyed the State of Chen, all the ministers and doctors congratulated me, but you showed off my bad face. Is this what you should do as a minister?"

Shen Shushi said seriously: "Master, I have a few indifferent advice. I wonder if the king is willing to listen?"

The King of Chu was very unhappy, but he still said, "But it's okay."

Shen Shushi said: "Xia Zhengshu was guilty of killing the king, and it was a great thing for the king to conquer Xia Zhengshu with this. However, although Xia Zhengshu was guilty, the people of Chen were not guilty. He vented his anger on the people of Chen for Xia Zhengshu's crime and seized his country. Does the king think this is a good thing?"

The King of Chu snorted and said, "How is it not a good thing for me to expand the territory of Great Chu?"

Shen Shushi said: "Is this a good thing to lose the possibility of fighting for hegemony with Jin because of just one Chen State?"

The King of Chu's face changed suddenly and he said, "How do you say this?"

Shen Shushi said: "As a vassal of the Great Chu, Chen State was destroyed for no reason. After the news spread, will the small countries in the Central Plains dare to rely on the Great Chu in the future? If all the small countries in the Central Plains turn to Jin State, how can the king challenge Jin State's hegemony and seize the position of overlord from Jin State?"

The King of Chu's face changed drastically.

After a long time, the King of Chu asked, "If I admit my mistake at this moment and restore the State of Chen, do you think it's still time?"

Shen Shushi said seriously: "How can it be too late to correct the mistake when he knows the mistake? If the news spreads, the princes will definitely praise the wise king. I am here to congratulate the king."
