After Spring and Autumn

Chapter 200
Seeing that he couldn't persuade Wu Zixu, Sun Wu shook his head lightly. He seemed to have met Wu Zixu's end, and said softly.

"Since Shen Xu is unwilling to leave, then I have nothing to say. Now that I have made up my mind to return, Shen Xu should stop talking. I hope we will meet again in the future."

After saying goodbye, Wu Zixu showed reluctance in his eyes. He watched Sun Wu's servants driving his carriage away, and his face also showed worry.

After all, Chu State is a big country. Wu State has become a little proud and complacent after only a few victories. Wu Zixu naturally sees this. He hopes that after Fu Chai succeeds to the throne, he can change his thinking.

The most important thing is that He Lu was kind to him, and before he died, he appointed him as the Prime Minister of Wu State to assist Fuchai to continue to govern Wu State, so he felt a sense of belonging to Wu State from the bottom of his heart.

Naturally, he didn't want to be like Sun Wu, who said he would go back to the mountains and leave without nostalgia. After sighing, he turned back to the city.

Now my king Fuchai is ready to attack Yue, and Wu Zixu is busy with affairs, so he ignores Sun Wu's advice and wants to avenge Helu.

Afterwards, Wu State rose, and the army attacked Yue State. The momentum was like a rainbow, and the army of Yue State could hardly resist. Under such circumstances, Gou Jian was also very anxious. At this time, Fan Li suggested to him.

"Your Majesty, at this time, the Yue Kingdom may not be able to support it. This time Wu Guo Fuchai is out to avenge his father, so he will definitely show no mercy to us. Therefore, at this time, we must find a way to seek peace with them and keep the Yue Kingdom. The ancestral temple is."

After hearing this, Gou Jian was also very helpless, and asked after sighing.

"How do you seek peace under such circumstances? How can Wu Wang Fu Chai pay attention to the things of gold and silver?"

After hearing this, Fan Li smiled and spoke confidently.

"My king Fucha's favorite minister, Bo Pi, is a greedy person. We can bribe him at this time. At the same time, you have to show your surrender to the king of Wu, and lower your status to go to the country of Wu to become the king of Wu. Courtier."

Hearing this, Gou Jian immediately said that he would quit. How can he say that he is also the king of the Yue State, and if he became a courtier in the Wu State, then the Yue State would exist in name only, so he immediately refused.

"Even if I die, I will not do such a thing. At worst, I will call the army of Kuaiji to fight to the death with King Wu, and I will never be humiliated like this!"

Hearing this, Fan Li was also a little anxious, and immediately spoke out to comfort him.

"Your Majesty, please think about it carefully. Is personal honor or disgrace more important than the ancestral temple of the Yue Kingdom? If the ancestral temple is destroyed by the Wu people at this time, then the Yue Kingdom is really over."

"As a king, you naturally have to think about the future of your country. Even if you make compromises at this time, as long as you can keep the Yue country, it is worth it. Otherwise, even if your king wants to do this in the future, I am afraid it will not be possible."

After hearing this, Gou Jian's face was uncertain, and after thinking for a long time, he said.

"Think about it again and see if there is any other way. Such a humiliating move is difficult for me to do."

After he finished speaking, he turned around and left, Wen Zhong and Fan Li looked at each other, at this time Wen Zhong spoke.

"Uncle Shao, you once studied with Ji Ran, the fisherman, and you also have some teacher-student friendship. If you ask Han for help at this time, what do you think?"

After he finished speaking, Fan Li sighed and said earnestly.

"Can't Ziqin see it? The Marquis of Han supports Wang Zichao to become the emperor of Zhou at this time. This is obviously a big game of chess. Although I don't know how the situation in the Han country is? But with his master's ability. "

"Since you are willing to go out to help the Marquis of Han, then you must be able to stand firm in a short time. Your Majesty is determined, but sometimes you take things for granted. If you can at this time, let Your Majesty learn from the Wuyue War."

"Then Yue will become a big country in the south in the future. If Han is asked for help at this time, what will happen in the future? It is the king's responsibility to defend the country. If this responsibility is entrusted to other people, then Yue may fall into a slump. "

After Wen Zhong heard this, he also sighed, and he said helplessly.

"But under the current situation, the king is unwilling to do this. What can we do as ministers? We must first overcome the difficulties in front of us, and both Wu and Yue countries have obtained titles from Wang Zichao."

"Nominally speaking, we all belong to the vassal kingdoms under the Zhou Dynasty. It is also right to ask the Han Kingdom for help in such a crisis. The king probably thought of this, so he refused so resolutely."

Hearing what he said, Fan Li glanced at the direction Gou Jian was leaving, and said with a sigh of relief.

"I heard that Yan He, the envoy of the Marquis of Han, is now in the country of Wu. If you want the player to send someone directly to Yan He, you can. If my expectations are not bad, I am afraid that the Marquis of Han has already prepared a countermeasure. "

And Wen Zhong also felt that this matter was a bit difficult to handle. From the bottom of his heart, he was unwilling to ask the Han Kingdom for help, but the situation in front of him was extremely critical, and the troops of the Wu Kingdom had already rushed to the edge of Kuaiji City.

There are only 5000 people in Kuaiji City today. Even if the people are gathered in the city to help defend the city, it is just delaying time, so no matter what, we must solve the siege of Kuaiji City before us.

But at this time, Yi Dun used this period of time to obtain a lot of Wu Zhu at a relatively low price in Wu State through Bo Pi's relationship, thus earning a lot of money.

However, he was not satisfied with this. Iron wares are now mainly made in Gumi City, and bronze has become a commodity for trading here. A large amount of bronze was sold to the state of Wu.

Not long after the delivery, Yan He found Yi Dun and said to him.

"Before I set off, my lord has explained that once a battle breaks out between Wu and Yue, we must stop it in time. Now that Wu's troops have reached the city of Kuaiji, and Yue has the power to destroy the country, you must find a way to see Bo Boo."

"Let him convince the King of Wu that it is enough to ask for money and food from the Yue Kingdom this time, and let the King of Wu turn his attention to the Chu Kingdom, so as to ensure the safety of the Yue Kingdom, and then I will go to the Yue Kingdom to persuade them to attack the Chu Kingdom together .”

After hearing this, Yi Dun showed a confident expression on his face.
