Chapter 202 Contradictions between Monarch and Subject
Thinking of this, Wu Wang Fucha couldn't sit still, and then asked Bo Pi.

"You were also an aristocrat of Chu State before, what do you think of Ling Yin Zixi of Chu State now?"

Hearing this, Wu Zixu felt a little bad. If Yue Guo was let go at this time, wouldn't there be a disaster left behind?So he interrupted Wu Wang Fuchai's questioning regardless of etiquette, and said in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty, it is the best policy to deal with Chu State after destroying Yue State first. Otherwise, if Yue State relapses in the future, then our Wu State will suffer from the enemy."

Bo Pi, on the other hand, was very confident. With a smile on his face, he explained.

"Master Xiangguo, don't worry, as long as the Yue Kingdom signs an alliance with us, and when all their troops are sent out, how can they still have the ability to counterattack our Wu Kingdom? And on the battlefield, these Yue Kingdom's troops can go to charge .”

"In this way, we can not only achieve the goal of weakening the Yue Kingdom, but also deal with the Chu Kingdom. Isn't it killing two birds with one stone? Moreover, Kuaiji City is very strong. It will take a long time to defeat it, and our losses will increase at that time. .”

"In case Chu State sends troops to Wu State at that time, we will be passive, so the reason why I suggest the King to attack Chu State is to prevent Chu State from further strengthening and threatening our Wu State."

But Wu Zixu sneered and refuted unceremoniously.

"Chu is still strong today, and Jin is in civil strife. Now Chu doesn't dare to use troops against us, so it's a good time to destroy Yue. At that time, Chu will continue to fight in the Central Plains. Attack."

"It will definitely cause resistance from the vassal states of the Central Plains. Regardless of whether Jin will dominate or Qi will dominate in the future, they will target Chu. At that time, we can use troops against Chu again. This is the best policy."

During this period of time, the state of Wu was always at the disadvantage of the neighboring small countries, which also made Fu Chai very confident in the combat effectiveness of the army of the state of Wu. After hearing this, his face was a little dissatisfied, so his tone was also a little bit bad. Said loudly.

"Xiangguo means that my state of Wu is not as strong as Chu's now? Should we wait for Chu's internal and external troubles before sending troops? In my king's opinion, there is no need, since Chu is the largest prince in the south. country."

"Then we will go all out to deal with Chu State. As long as we can take down a mere Yue State in Chu State, what's the point? With the combat power of my current Wu State troops, I will definitely be able to defeat Chu State."

"Since this is the case, then order the troops to besiege Kuaiji City and not attack it to reduce the losses of the troops. At the same time, send people into the city to meet Goujian, so that Yue Kingdom will become a subsidiary country of Wu Kingdom from now on, and attack Chu Kingdom together."

"Let Goujian understand that the command of the Yue army is in our hands. As long as he agrees and dares to make an alliance with this king, then this time this king can withdraw his troops and return to Wu."

Wu Zixu never thought that Wu Wang Fucha would make such a decision, and immediately objected.

"Could it be that the great king has forgotten why the former king died? He was provoked by a villain, and he let go of the Yue country so easily. Wu Jun."

"If King Goujian of Yue is given enough time, it will definitely be a serious problem for my country of Wu in the future. I hope that the king will not give up attacking Kuaiji City because of some losses in front of me. Otherwise, my country of Wu will definitely be destroyed by the hands of Yue in the future. "

This remark was not polite at all, it was equivalent to completely overturning the order that Wu Wang Fucha had just given, how could he bear it in his heart?Dang even said angrily.

"Xiangguo may not be too alarmist. Just now, the king has given the order. Are you going to let the king take back his order? Don't say too much, it's decided like that. The future of the Yue Kingdom is mere, and if they repeat it in the future."

"At that time, the king will personally command the army, and the Yue country will be destroyed with a snap of his fingers. Besides, the previous king was injured by Ling Gufu, and he is now dead. This time, killing so many Yue troops is enough to comfort us. The spirit of the former king."

After finishing speaking, he walked away, and Bo Pi followed him out, leaving Wu Zixu standing there in a daze, with a look of sadness on his face, and stomped his feet heavily, before turning around and leaving.

At this time, Bo Pi was a little careful with him, and pleaded for Wu Zixu, saying.

"Master Xiangguo was an important minister of the late king, and he was instructed by the late king to assist the king, so it is inevitable that he will treat himself as an elder when he speaks and does things. It is understandable not to obey the etiquette of the king and his ministers for a while."

These words sounded like pleading, but they were hidden evil intentions. He had been with Wu Wang Fuchai for so long, so he naturally understood what kind of person he was, not to mention his irritable personality and quite conceited.

After he finished speaking, Fu Chai, the king of Wu, was furious. He turned his head and glared at Bo Pi, and said angrily.

"Although Wu Zixu is an important minister of the Wu State, he is also a subject of this king. He relies on the old and sells the old. Does it mean that the king dare not kill him? The current national strength of the Chu State is recovering."

"If you don't take advantage of this moment to attack Chu State, when will you have to wait? Is it possible to wait until Chu Bo brings a large army to attack our Wu State, and then think about how to counterattack?"

But after he finished speaking, he let out a long breath, and his mood calmed down a bit, but his tone was still irritable.

"Wu Zixu and Sun Wu have made great contributions to the state of Wu. This king is aware of this, but if he does not follow the etiquette of the emperor and ministers because of this, then this king's Wu king might as well let Wu Zixu do it."

Wu Wang Fucha was just complaining casually, but at this time Bo Pi took the opportunity to say.

"I heard that when Sun Wuzi left the state of Wu, he once said something like this to Lord Xiangguo. He said that the state of Wu ruled the world with force, and it will not last long in the future. That's why he resigned and retired."

These words were equivalent to adding fuel to the flames. After Wu Wang Fucha heard it, his face twitched.

"Because of Sun Wuzi's contribution to the state of Wu, the king will pretend that he has not heard these words. As long as he stays in the state of Wu honestly, then the king can spare him once. This Wu Zixu will not be there until now. This sharp eye."

"However, his position as prime minister was appointed by the previous king. This king can't do anything about him. It's really better to go back to the mountains and forests with Sun Wuzi, so as not to be an eyesore in front of this king. I always feel that this king is not as far-sighted as he is. It's hateful."
