Chapter 122 Jiang Xin seizes the body, Qin Hui enters the palace to argue

Bo Pu's worry was not unreasonable. Fu sent out of the palace and ordered the guards to capture Wu Feng. At the same time, he summoned the guards and rushed to Wu Zixu's doctor's residence in a carriage.

The prosperous city of Gusu has not seen such a battle for a long time. A large group of palace guards wearing white armor, Wu hooks on their waists, and holding halberds surrounded them, guarding the king of Wu's ceremonial chariot, heading west of the city.

At the same time, Wu Zixu's doctor's mansion was also surrounded.

The people of Wu State were shocked when they saw this scene. What is going on?

Just after the order was given to imprison Doctor Wu, the king came over again? Did something happen again?

People who didn't know what was going on followed him from afar, trying to figure out what was going on.

It's just that the more people watching, the uglier Fu Chai's face became.

But after all, he still didn't let anyone disperse these people.

Because Fu Chai wanted to expose Wu Zixu's hypocrisy in front of everyone, so that people would know what kind of villain Dr. Wu, whom they had admired for so many years, really was!

There are many soldiers and armors in front, the guards have long halberds and sharp swords, and Wu Gou is bright, occupying key positions near Wu Mansion.

No matter how skilled the people inside are, they can't escape!

Fu Chai had an evil look on his face and glanced at the Wu Mansion hatefully, then stared down at the guards accompanying him: "Has Wu Zixu's son been captured?"

The guard looked bitter: "Your Majesty, no news has been sent back yet."

Fu Chai glared at him fiercely: "I want to see him as soon as possible!"

"Yes!" The guard trotted back.

Fu Chai's companion arrived in front of the Wu Mansion, but he did not come forward again: "Go in and call Wu Zixu out! I have something to ask him!"

Bo Pu, who was following him, had a grimace on his face and opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he chose to keep his mouth shut.

"yes!"

The guard beside Fu Chai did not hesitate and went up to knock open the door of Wu Mansion.

But before he could make a move, the door of Wu Mansion opened by itself.

Wu Zixu, a tall man dressed in white linen clothes, slowly stepped out from behind the door, his eyes coldly staring at Fu Chai on his shoulder carriage, his pale and curly beard as iron wire, unmoving in the wind.

Seeing his appearance, Fu Chai became even more angry and asked coldly: "Wu Zixu, don't you have anything to explain?"

"I want to explain."

Wu Zixu's voice was cold and emotionless: "But I have to explain to the late king after death, not to you!"

Fu Chai slapped his shoulder and stood up angrily: "How outrageous!"

"Do you still have this King of Wu alone in your eyes?"

Wu Zixu turned his head and didn't want to pay attention to him at all.

The people watching from afar heard the conversation between the two and were in an uproar.

what happens?

The king angrily rebuked Doctor Wu, but Doctor Wu was so dismissive of the king?

"Wu Zixu!"

Fu Chai angrily walked out of the carriage, pointed angrily at Wu Zixu and cursed: "You are a villain without a king, a traitor, and the biggest shameless person in the world!"

"Now that the imperial troops are approaching, you are secretly liaising with other countries to seek a way out for yourself! You even want to send your son out of Wu. I want to ask you, what are your intentions!!"

The people around him were in an uproar when they heard this.

"Really? Doctor Wu is actually such a person?"

"Didn't it mean that the imperial troops could not reach our country of Wu? Why did Doctor Wu do this?"

"The king should not lie, but how could Doctor Wu do such a thing..."

Most of the people were skeptical about this statement, but the way they looked at Wu Zixu inevitably changed, waiting for Wu Zixu's explanation.

Bo Pu complained secretly beside Fu Chai, but he didn't expect that the matter would escalate to this point!

It’s out of control!

How about... return the money and those little beauties?

Fu Chai looked at Wu Zixu with strong pleasure in his eyes.

Aren't you a wise and capable minister? Don't people all like you and admire you?

Now how do you explain it to everyone?

Fu Chai only regrets that Wu Zixu's son has not been caught now, otherwise he would be taken here, which would be more convincing than any evidence!

However, Wu Zixu's words were beyond his expectation, as well as those of everyone present.

He didn't explain it at all, but admitted it bluntly.

"Yes, I just want to send my son out of Wu!"

Wu Zixu looked around and said frankly: "The Kingdom of Wu is about to fall! I can accompany the Kingdom of Wu to fall. As for my son, there is no need for him to die here."

These words were like throwing a bomb into the crowd, and the people's reaction was several times more intense than before!

Subjugation of the country?

This term sounds so far away!

Their current life is comfortable and peaceful. Even if there is news of war, it seems far away in the horizon.

How many years has it been, how many years has this Gusu City not experienced the flames of war?

Now this huge word of national subjugation was suddenly placed in front of their eyes, which made many people feel confused for a while, and they were stunned and speechless!

"fart!"

Fu Chai was so angry that he swore: "Even if you, the traitor, die, the country of Wu will not be destroyed!!"

"Not only are you colluding with the enemy's country, you are also spreading rumors here to disturb the people's hearts!"

"Wu Zixu! You are such a ruthless person! Your father has treated you very well. Is this how you repay his kindness?"

Unexpectedly, these words irritated Wu Zixu. He glared at Fu Chai and said loudly: "It is precisely because I want to repay the kindness of the late king that I give you advice again and again! You are at your disposal!"

At this point, Wu Zixu no longer has any scruples!

He pointed at Fu Chai's nose and cursed angrily: "If you had listened to my words earlier, how would the Wu Kingdom be in danger of subjugation? But you are a foolish king who is stubborn and stubborn and acts perversely. You insist on pursuing your own selfish desires and disregarding the entire Wu Kingdom!"

"My dear Fucha! You have no chance of being crowned king, so I fought to the death of the late king so that you could become the crown prince! After you became the crown prince, you wanted to give me half of the Kingdom of Wu, but I didn't accept it!"

"Now I deeply regret that I didn't understand people at that time and listened to your sweet words, allowing you, a selfish villain, to steal the big position!"

"In the future, the Kingdom of Wu will suffer from wars and disasters, and it will be all my fault!"

"Be bold!"

Fu Chai's old background was uncovered and bloody exposed to everyone's eyes.

His veins bulged out with anger, his face turned as red as a ripe crab, he drew out the sword from his waist angrily, and rushed towards Wu Zixu with murderous intent!

"Wu Zixu, you are a man who deceives the public with your evil words! I will kill you today. Even if you die, the Kingdom of Wu will not be destroyed!"

The people around and the palace guards were all dumbfounded.

The king wants to kill Doctor Wu?

Also, is what Dr. Wu said true?

Did the king really want to give him half of the kingdom of Wu?

Is Wu Guo really going to die now?

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, calm down!"

Bo Pu flew forward, hugged Fu Cha's thigh, and begged!

"roll!"

Fu Cha was about to kick him away, but Bo Chu hugged him tightly. Fu Cha, in a rage, raised his sword and was about to chop him off!

However, Bo Pu's next words made him abruptly stop his sword movement.

"Your Majesty! Wu Zixu is just talking nonsense and misleading the public!"

"If you chop him to death on the spot, won't people mistakenly think that his lies are true?"

Fu Chai raised his sword and looked around coldly.

As expected, those unruly people were all looking at this place, dumbfounded.

In front of the gate of Wu Mansion, Wu Zixu wanted to die. He no longer looked forward or backward, but insisted on scolding him loudly and letting out all the unhappiness he had accumulated before.

"You little man! You are a thief who has brought disaster to the country and the people! You are a cowardly king and treacherous ministers, rotten beetles rotten your flesh, and you are committing adultery in such a cowardly manner! When I am destined to return to hell, I will surely eat your flesh and your bones alive..."

Bo Pu shivered, goosebumps appeared on his arms, and he persuaded Fu Cha even more earnestly: "Your Majesty, there is no rush to kill Wu Zixu. At least you can't do it in person! Otherwise, some villain will really do this.

The shame is placed on the king..."

Fu Chai looked at the people around him with his peripheral vision, looked at their expressions, and finally put down the sword in his hand.

Bobo is right.

If Wu Zixu was really hacked to death on the spot, wouldn't others think that he was furious?

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..." Bo Pu subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. When he was about to say more, Fu Chai had already turned around and walked towards Jian Yu.

"Go back to the palace!" Fu Cha shouted angrily, his face turned black.

If he doesn't kill him now, it doesn't mean he will let Wu Zixu live until tomorrow.

If he kills him on the spot, others will think he is angry.

But if he returns to the palace and sends this traitor to death for being disrespectful and slandering your Majesty, others will not be able to say anything, at least not openly.

As for those who talk in secret, just kill them!

As they set out on their journey, Wu Zixu still scolded from behind: "Foolish king! Expose my corpse at the gate of Wu Capital. I will personally watch the destruction of Wu..."

Bo Chu was furious and cursed angrily at the guards on the side: "What are you doing standing still? Drag this old thief Wu Zixu back and lock him up! Don't let him utter obscene words again!"

Several guards woke up from a dream and hurriedly escorted Wu Zixu back to the depths of Wu Mansion, guarding the door tightly.

Bo Po then wiped his sweat and patted the dust off his body. Just as he was about to take a step forward, he felt his calves become weak and almost fell to the ground again.

In any case, he was almost chopped down by Fu Cha just now. How much risk did he take?

Dazai-sama feels that since he has worked so hard, asking them to increase money is not too much, right?

He returned to the sedan chair on the street, whispered some instructions to his servants, and then left in pursuit of Fu Chai with peace of mind.

Wu Palace.

"Haven't you found it yet?"

Fu Chai glared at the guards below: "You can lose even a boy who doesn't even have hair. Is it possible that you are just living alone??"

"Your Majesty, someone must be secretly helping Wu Feng."

The guard's face was dripping with sweat, and he hurriedly defended: "Two of us followed him, but we both ran into trouble at the same time."

"One knocked over a salesman's cart on the roadside, and the other was treated as a thief. By the time they realized something was wrong, Wu Feng had already disappeared..."

Fu Chai didn't listen to his explanation and said angrily: "This is the lonely capital of Wu!"

"If you can't find Wu Feng tomorrow, just come here with your head!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" the guard responded and hurriedly ran out of the palace.

Fu Cha stared coldly at Bo Pu and another guard, took off the sword inlaid with gold and jade from his waist and threw it at them.

Bang~~

The sword fell to the jade steps below.

"Send this sword to Wu Zixu's house and order him to commit suicide!"

I couldn't kill him with my own hands just now, but now I let this sword kill Wu Zixu, which can be regarded as a relief from the hatred in my heart!

But even so, Fu Chai still felt that it was not enough.

When he thought of what Wu Zixu had just said in public, Fu Chai wanted to chop him into pieces.

Fu Cha gritted his teeth and said: "He still wants to expose the corpse at the city gate and watch the Wu Dynasty perish? But he won't be allowed to do so!"

He originally wanted to capture Wu Zixu's son and kill him in front of Wu Zixu.

But those guards were really useless.

Fu Chai didn't want to wait any longer for someone to catch him, he didn't want to wait any longer for a moment!

Only now, by letting Wu Zixu die immediately, can his deep-seated hatred be relieved.

Bo Pu also stepped forward and said bitterly: "Your Majesty, that traitor Wu Zixu still wants to turn into a fierce ghost and eat the flesh and blood of his ministers."

"I ask you to kill his corpse, wrap it in barbarian leather, and sink it into the river, where it will be eaten by fish and shrimps. The river will wash away his body, causing his soul to fly away, and he will never be able to stand up again!"

"good!"

Fu Chai was gloomy and very satisfied with Wu Zixu's fate. He looked at Bo Pu and said bitterly: "It's up to you to handle this matter. I won't be able to live in peace if I want this old thief to die!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" After receiving the order, Bo Pu quickly rushed to the Wu Mansion with his guards...

Fu Chai wanted to kill Wu Zixu and kill his body. News of Shen Jiang soon spread in Gusu City. The reason was that he was treason, collaborating with the enemy, and slandering the king.

The uninformed people were shocked and grieved at first, and then they heard about the conflict at the gate of Wu Mansion!

"Doctor Wu is too...presumptuous, isn't he? He dares to scold the king like that..."

"Isn't what Doctor Wu said right? Not to mention the current king, didn't even the previous king get help from Doctor Wu to ascend the throne? Now he actually wants to kill Doctor Wu, how ungrateful!" There is indeed a feeling in Gusu City!

Many old people know what happened at that time.

"Oh, Doctor Wu is really trusting me. How great it would be if the late king were still on the throne now..."

"The late king is not a good person either!"

Some people were indignant: "My second brother's two children were pushed into the grave and buried alive just because they went to watch the excitement."

"Yeah, I finally got through the late king, but I didn't expect that another one who was even worse would come!"

"It would have been great if Doctor Wu really wanted half of the Kingdom of Wu at that time. I must go to that half!"

"I also need to go."

"Be careful what you say..."

There was an undercurrent in Gusu City, and the people spontaneously took to the streets. The flow of people was like a tidal wave, rushing towards Wu Zixu's doctor's house.

At this moment, in a hidden alley outside the house, a small maroon carriage was parked quietly, and a low sob could be heard faintly in the carriage.

Sun Wu stared at the Wu Mansion under martial law in the distance through the black silk curtain on the car window. His eyes were deep and his pinched fingers with white knuckles highlighted his inner unrest.

More and more people gathered outside the Wu Mansion. People looked at him from a distance, with strong sadness and regret in their eyes. Weeping sounds continued to be heard from the crowd.

There was a rush of footsteps and the sound of horse hooves, and a group of palace guards lined up the crowd and came escorting a sedan.

The crying in the crowd increased, and Sun Wu also squeezed the window frame tightly.

The carriage creaked, and Sun Wu hurriedly stretched out his hand to catch Wu Feng, who was about to rush out.

"Calm down!" Sun Wu scolded with a frown.

Wu Feng's voice was hoarse from crying, and he roared hysterically: "My father is going to die! How can I calm down!"

He obviously also knew the meaning of that sedan chair.

Sun Wu also had tears in his eyes, but he still shook his head with difficulty: "The security was so tight, you just wanted to die in the past."

"Then I can't watch here...Uncle Sun...that's my dad..." Wu Feng held his head, his hair disheveled, his face full of tears, and he fell on the floor of the carriage in pain.

Sun Wu gently wiped the corners of his eyes with his sleeve, and said in an unnatural voice: "That's why you can't go out."

"Wu Feng, when your father was young, your eldest father was imprisoned by the King of Chu. He used this to threaten your father and your uncle to return to the capital of Ying. If they did not go back, they would kill your eldest father."

"Your father knew that returning would mean death, so he escaped from Chu. When your uncle returned to Yingdu, the King of Chu immediately killed him and your uncle."

"Wu Feng, do you want to be like your father, or do you want to be like your uncle?"

Wu Feng's admiration for his father has been deeply rooted in his bones. He buried his head between his knees and swallowed: "Of course you will be my father!"

"Then don't move!"

Sun Wu looked at him: "Since your father entrusted you to me, I must ensure your safety."

"After today, you will go to Qi with me."

He looked grave: "You don't have to avenge your father. If you don't wait until that day, the Kingdom of Wu will be destroyed."

The confidant Wu Zixu who recommended him to come to Wu died, which made Sun Wu want to retire.

The imperial court's 60,000 troops are attacking, and the Wu State has at least 80,000 troops. They have superior strength and are protecting the country and territory, so there is probably no need to worry.

Even without him as a general, he can still stop it.

After that, the two sides made peace, but they would definitely have to go back and forth.

At that time, the imperial court will suppress the territory with ten times or dozens of times the army, and there will be several surrounding vassal states besieging the territory. The people in the territory will no longer be able to bear Fucha, the King of Wu... It will make no difference whether he is there or not.

"Uncle Sun..."

Wu Feng also knew this was the result, but he still couldn't help feeling sad and beat his head again and again.

"My father is going to die... They will kill his body and throw it into the river..."

Sun Wu looked at him like this, but he couldn't hold it back after all. His nose felt sore and he almost shed tears again.

"That's fine..."

He wiped the corners of his eyes and looked up at the roof of the car: "If I can't save your father alive, I will take his body back even if he dies!"

Fu Chai was a smart man. Although he made Sun Wu the general, he never relaxed his control over the Wu army.

Sun Wu was able to order the Wu army to retreat to the capital before, because it was during wartime and the general controlled the entire army.

But now King Wu Fucha ordered the palace guards to surround Wu Mansion. If Sun Wu asked his soldiers to come to the rescue, those Wu soldiers might not obey the order.

Facing the now airtight Wu Mansion, with only Wu Feng, Sun Wu and a few servants, if they want to save people, they will never come back.

The limit that Sun Wu could do was to try to retrieve Wu Zixu's body.

"Uncle Sun..."

Wu Feng raised his eyes and looked at Sun Wu. He didn't even bother to cry. He hurriedly crawled half a step over and grabbed Sun Wu's legs. His eyes, which were red and swollen from crying, were full of hope.

"Uncle Sun...can you really get my father's body back??"

A trace of unbearability flashed in Sun Wu's eyes, and he smoothed the messy hair on his forehead: "I can only give it a try."

Wu Feng's eyes were blank and he murmured, lowering his head: "Just give it a try... Just one try is enough... Just one try is enough..."

"Uncle Sun!"

He raised his head suddenly, his eyes red: "When are we going?"

Sun Wu shook his head gently: "If you can't do it now, I will take you to make arrangements."

As he spoke, he gently knocked on the carriage in front. The coachman understood and drove the carriage out of the city.

Wu Feng took one last look at the vague yet familiar Wu Mansion through the thick black silk curtain, fell against the carriage wall, and sobbed silently again...

Bo Pu's sedan was surrounded by guards and entered the Wu Mansion. Angry curses were heard again, but they soon stopped abruptly.

After a while, the sedan drove out again, and this time there were four guards behind it carrying a body wrapped in leather. Blood was constantly seeping out of the gaps in the leather.

Seeing this scene, the cries of the people around him became even louder.

For them, this news is too sudden and unexpected!

Yesterday was fine, but today a series of events happened, first there was the scolding in front of the Wu Mansion, and then the king executed Doctor Wu.

The people are not stupid, on the contrary, they are very smart.

They can feel whoever treats them badly and whoever treats them sincerely and well.

Everyone has seen the changes Wu Zixu has brought to the country of Wu over the years.

The fact that Gusu City has reached this point and that the people in the city live such a comfortable and prosperous life is absolutely inseparable from Wu Zixu's hard work over the years.

Now, Doctor Wu, who served them wholeheartedly and allowed them to live this kind of life, was sentenced to death and left them forever. All the people could not help but feel sad and burst into tears.

Bo Po's sedan chair left Gusu City and arrived at the riverside outside the city.

The guards carried the leather body, got on the boat, and sailed towards the center of the river.

At this time, the crying from the crowd gradually became louder, and many people cried and squeezed forward, wanting to go up and see Wu Zixu one last time.

The huge crowd gradually became uncontrollable and kept rushing forward.

But during this process, Bo Pu always pretended to be dead and refused to take a step out of the sedan.

The guard commander commanded many armored guards to stop the crowd with a stern expression, but even in the face of bright swords and guns, the people continued to push and push the many guards.

But at this moment, a sudden change occurred!

Just behind the mountain that people couldn't see, a small boat suddenly rushed out from the other side of the river, swinging through the water and rushing towards the boat that dumped the body like an arrow.

"who!!"

The palace guards on the boat immediately became vigilant, came to the bow of the boat, and stood in a defensive formation.

But there was no sound coming from the small boat. If the oars hadn't been sliding, it might have been mistakenly thought that there was no one on board.

The guards became more vigilant and raised their swords and guns one after another, aiming at the small boat.

The guards on the shore also noticed the situation on the river. The guard commander was shocked, someone was trying to cause trouble!!

"Quick! Get on the boat!!"

He called some of his men nearby to get on the boat and rushed towards the center of the river quickly.

A large number of guards were transferred away, and the remaining people could no longer stop the surging people, so they had to retreat to Bo Pu's sedan.

The people of Wu State did not care about anything else and rushed to the riverside in crowds, wiping away tears and looking nervously at the situation on the river.

At this time, the small boat had already taken action!

Suddenly, several masked men in linen clothes and black scarves stood out, holding powerful crossbows with cold eyes. They pulled the trigger without saying a word!

Sharp arrows were like rain, and under a volley, the five or six palace guards standing on the bow of the ship turned into hedgehogs and fell down screaming.

"How dare you, thief!!"

The guard commander's eyes were red and he roared loudly, but their ship had just left the shore and there was no time to arrive.

At this time, only two palace guards were left on the boat where the body was dumped. Seeing this situation, they were so frightened that they died.

One person jumped into the water to escape, but the other person kicked the shroud placed on the stern of the boat into the water, and then jumped into the water and swam to the shore.

In the land of Wu, both common people and soldiers are proficient in water properties.

The river is their home. Even if they can't swim to the shore wearing armor, they can still persist until reinforcements arrive.

"What a thief!"

The man in black who was leading the boat was furious. He grabbed a crossbow from his subordinates, raised his hand and shot the bodyguard through the neck with an arrow. The guard screamed and sank into the water, with a string of bubbles popping out.

.

A ball of blood spread out, dyeing the green water of the river red.

As the boat speeded up, two masked men jumped into the river and tried to fish out Wu Zixu's body.

However, leaving it alone for so long has been in vain.

The leader of the guards yelled angrily and drove the boat closer and closer. Seeing what was going on, several masked men could not do anything. They pulled the ropes to pull their companions out of the water, and then drove the boat away...

The common people looked at this scene from a distance, but what they saw was not real.

But they knew that no matter what, they would never see Doctor Wu again.

The cry on the shore was like a bell, but nothing could be saved.

Bo Po's sedan chair returned to the palace and reported today's accident to Fu Cha.

"Asshole!"

Fu Chai was furious: "These must be the people who rescued Wu Zixu's son. How dare they cause trouble in the isolated Wu Dynasty!"

"Catch, catch them all!!"

Perhaps only when he learned about Sun Wu's disappearance could he connect the two events.



The next day, Beijing.

The red sun rises and dispels the darkness.

Daqian welcomed his diligent Emperor again.

Li Qian got up early and took Wu Meiniang to the front Ziwei Hall.

"Feng Xian! Yesterday I finished swearing my oath, so there is no need to hold back today."

Li Qian stared at Lu Bu below: "I'll pull it out as hard as I can today."

"Yes, foster father."

Lu Bu agreed at first, and then hesitantly said: "Father, actually you don't need to use so much force today. Bu has been helping his adoptive father pull out his tendons for so many days, and he has already begun to see results, and his muscles and bones have also begun to open up."

Already."

"In the days to come, my adoptive father will start practicing Ba Duan Jin while pulling out his hair."

"Is that so?"

Li Qian was a little happy. After suffering so much, he could finally see progress: "Okay, let's do the extraction this morning and practice in the afternoon!"

"Yes, foster father."

Lu Bu agreed and once again asked Li Qian to lie down on the couch and stretched his muscles and bones. In order to ensure that Li Qian could still practice Baduanjin in the afternoon, Lu Bu really didn't use much force.

So much so that after it was over, Li Qian curled his lips: "It's a bit unsatisfying..."

After he came back to his senses, he was shocked by his thoughts.

'I'm not really a pervert...'

"Your Majesty, are you feeling better?"

After Lu Bu withdrew, Wu Meiniang came to Li Qian and kneaded his weak muscles and bones.

Li Qian wanted to be miserable and continue to enjoy the beauty's gentle massage.

But when he thought that there were still many memorials to be approved, and when he thought about practicing Ba Duan Jin in the afternoon, he stood up like a carp, sat up from his knees, and showed a smile to Wu Meiniang: "I'm fine, let's read the memorials now!"

However, before approving the memorial, Li Qian still said to Wei Zhongxian: "Big companion, send someone to the Sixth Palace and ask the talented person Lu Fei to come over."

"Yes, Your Majesty." The old eunuch responded and left.

At the same time, in the capital, Mr. Qin Hui, the Right Prime Minister, was also sitting in a sedan chair, setting off from his residence and rushing towards the palace.
