After Spring and Autumn

Chapter 244

When Bai Gongsheng finished speaking, Bo Pi took a look at his face, and said in a tentative tone.

"My lord, don't underestimate yourself. It's just a temporary difficulty to commit yourself to the state of Wu. Anyway, you are also the descendant of the current king of Chu. If you can return to the state of Chu one day, you can still have the position of minister."

As soon as Xiong Zhen, king of Chu Zhao, was mentioned, Bai Gongsheng's face twitched and he said directly.

"My father is because of the death of King Chu's biological mother. The hatred has already been forged. Even if he returns to Chu now, he will not receive the treatment that Xiangguo said, and how can he not avenge his father's revenge?"

"When my father was forced to leave Zheng State, he took the risk just to restore the country, and died in Zheng State. I was like a panicked dog, fleeing in embarrassment. If Wu State didn't take him in, how could I survive to this day?"

"Xiangguo doesn't need to test my thoughts here. Although I am under guard in Wu State, at least I feel at peace in my heart, and I don't have to worry about being killed. I am already very satisfied."

Although Bai Gongsheng said that he had no intention of leaving Wu, but he was full of resentment towards King Chu Zhao. After hearing this, Bo Pi sighed, turned and glanced at the guards outside, and then spoke.

"Your Majesty already knows what you are thinking. If this is the case, I will do my best to at least restore you to your freedom. In this way, you can live a more comfortable life in Wu."

The two drank for a while, and Bo Pi took his leave and left. The guards monitoring Bai Gongsheng were removed the next day, and after Bai Gongsheng regained his freedom, there was no abnormality.

He was just curious and walked around Helu City. He was accompanied by only two servants, and his words and deeds were carefully reported to Bo Pi. He saw that Bai Gongsheng had no intention of returning to Chu.

So Bo Pi came to the door again, and this time he gave Bai Gongsheng a lot of money and gifts.

After getting these things, Bai Gongsheng started a luxurious life, and still has no intention of leaving.

After several trials, Bo Pi finally expressed his inner thoughts to Bai Gongsheng.

"The king of Wu intends to let the son return to the state of Chu. The current king of Chu is very ambitious and has always wanted to take revenge on my state of Wu. Since this kind of hatred is difficult to resolve, the king of Wu will soon launch an army to attack the state of Chu."

"This is also due to the ambition of King Chu Zhao, so King Wu decided to support the young master. If there is a chance in the future, the young master may become the next Chu king. The things needed to return to Chu have been prepared. Please go on the road tomorrow. .”

After hearing this, Bai Gongsheng's face finally changed. He didn't refuse, and said directly.

"Since the king of Wu has such a wish, I have stayed in Wu for so long, and I have received Wu's favor, so I will repay it, so I will not refuse such a request, but after returning to Chu, I am worried that it will not be possible. "

Bo Pi laughed, took out a bamboo slip from his sleeve, and placed it in front of Bai Gongsheng.

"This is Wu's battle plan against Chu. As long as you donate this thing to King Chu Zhao, you will definitely be able to get the position of Shangqing in Chu. In this way, you don't have to worry about your life being threatened."

"As for what to say after you go back, it depends on your own arrangements. At that time, I will specially arrange people to follow you back to Chu, and they will send the news back."

"Once there is a suitable opportunity, the young master will become a blockbuster in the state of Chu. At that time, with the support of the king of Wu, after the young master becomes the king of Chu, our two countries can cease fighting."

After Bai Gongsheng heard this, he stood up, bowed his face, and said solemnly.

"If I can return to the state of Chu, I will really become the king of Chu in the future, and I will definitely recognize the supremacy of the state of Wu!"

Just when Bai Gongsheng left Wu and rushed to Chu, my king Fu Chai personally commanded the army and directly attacked Liuhe of Chu, because before that, Wu sent troops to attack Chu twice and won both.

And now that the war between Wu State and Yue State has just ended, the people of Chu State did not expect that at this time, Wu State immediately launched a war against Chu State, and they were caught off guard.

In just half a month, Liuhe declared its fall, and Wu Wang Fuchai divided his troops into two groups, attacking Tianchang and Shandao together.

At this time, Bai Gongsheng finally arrived in Chu State, Chu Zhaowang Xiong Zhen was a little worried, so he asked Zixi.

"The state of Wu just launched a war against the state of Chu, and Bai Gongsheng rushed back immediately. This king feels that there are always some coincidences that are hard to explain. How should we treat Bai Gongsheng the most appropriate?"

Zixi naturally knew what King Chu Zhao was thinking, and he was worried that Bai Gongsheng would hold a grudge because of his biological mother, but there was no way to explain this kind of thing clearly, so after thinking about it, he said.

"How can you say that Bai Gongsheng is also the blood of the previous kings, and they are all the royal family of our Chu country. He must have been under strict surveillance in Wu before, so he couldn't take the opportunity to escape. This time Wu Wang Fucha led troops to attack our Chu country, and his defenses were lax. .”

"That's why Bai Gongsheng can return to the Chu Kingdom. Now that the king has the intention of rejuvenating the Chu Kingdom, it is natural to treat the royal family well. In this way, there will be no internal conflicts. Moreover, the people from the Wu Kingdom are not friendly. Bai Gongsheng may know the internal situation of Wu."

"Your Majesty, you don't have to worry about it. When Bai Gongsheng returns to Yingdu, you will know the truth if you ask him face to face. If your majesty is still not at ease, you can keep him far away from Yingdu, or even send him to fight against the Wu army."

After hearing this, King Chu Zhao nodded his head slowly. In fact, he was a little bit embarrassed about what his father, King Chu Ping, had done. Naturally, he had some embarrassment about Bai Gongsheng.

After Bai Gongsheng rushed back to Yingdu, Zixi went to greet him, and Bai Gongsheng said with an anxious expression on his face.

"Ling Yin, this time I got the news that Wu State attacked Chu State, and got this thing, so I hurried back, hoping to help our Chu State."

As he said that, he took out a bamboo slip from his sleeve, held it up with both hands and wanted to send it forward, Zixi looked at it and asked with some doubts.

"What is this?"

"That was also the war plan of Wu State against Chu State. In order to protect myself in Wu State, I had no choice but to make friends with Bo Pi. I invited him to drink before going out to get this bamboo slip. I hope it can help Chu State defeat Wu State. .”

Hearing what Bai Gongsheng said, Zixi's face showed a look of relief.
