Great Qin Emperor

Chapter 292

Zhou Chong did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically: "May I ask what you think you are missing these years, Your Majesty? The way of a king is to be magnanimous, and it is inevitable for people not to make mistakes. The story of Tonggong has been passed down through the ages, and it is a good story. Wang Shangshen Wouldn't it be better if the King of Chu could face up to his shortcomings?"

The words were so sweet that Zhang Liang almost laughed out loud, thinking that only a civilized person like Zhou Chong could come up with such a method. It was obvious that he wanted to clean up the king of Chu, and he had to say it himself, which is not a big word!
Li Yuan didn't know what Zhou Chong meant, and thought that Zhou Chong had good intentions, not to mention that Zhou Chong mentioned the story of Tonggong, so wouldn't Li Yuan become a saint like Yi Yin, and felt that his spirit was much higher, and agreed: "Your Majesty, Mr. Zhou's words are reasonable. As a king, you don't worry about faults, but worry about your faults without knowing it. Your Majesty, please reflect on it and ask Mr. Zhou for guidance."

Zhou Chong was still calm and said: "The prime minister's words are serious, and he dare not give advice."

The King of Chu thought for a while and said, "Since I came to the throne, I haven't made any serious mistakes in my thinking. There is only one thing that has been worrying me all the time. The trouble of the country."

Zhou Chong asked again: "Excuse me, my lord, why did you act rebellious?"

The king of Chu hesitated for a while and stopped talking. Li Yuan took over the conversation and said: "Mr. Zhou knows that he has long harbored the ambition of disobedience, and he listened to Zhu Ying's words and rebelled. This is the crime of treason, not the king. Please don’t take it to heart, Your Majesty.”

Zhou Chong chuckled, and said: "Prime Minister, Zhou Chong has something unclear, and I would like to ask the Prime Minister to explain Zhou Chong's doubts. There is a saying that 'there is no reason for nothing', and what everyone says may not be true, but it must not be ignored. Chu rebelled on the pretext that the king was not the flesh and blood of the previous king, and Zhou Chongzhi saw that this matter is of great importance, even if he had the heart to rebel, he would not be able to talk nonsense with red mouth and white teeth, could it be true?"

This was a speech that shocked everyone, the monarchs and ministers of Chu State were shocked when they heard Zhou Chong's words. If Zhou Chong was not a celebrity in front of the powerful King Qin, they would have spoken out and reprimanded him long ago.Even though they didn't dare to scold, they stopped eating and stared at Zhou Chong in surprise.

With an angry look on Li Yuan's face, he suppressed his anger and asked, "Excuse me, Mr. Zhou, why did you make such a rude statement?"

Zhou Chong took some time off, chuckled, and said, "Excuse me, Prime Minister, what did Zhou Chong say? May I ask Prime Minister, how did Huang Xie die? Zhou Chong told the Prime Minister that someone steals the sky and replaces the sun with a pregnant woman. Couldn’t the story before the king be true? Could it be that Huang Xie was killed by the prime minister? Could it be that the prime minister was the one who put the queen mother ahead of the previous king?”

A series of questions, every sentence is the fact that Li Yuan can't answer, and it is also the thing he fears the most. Unexpectedly, Zhou Chong asked it in front of so many people. The horror in Li Yuan's heart cannot be described with pen and ink. Trembling, eyes staring like copper bells, pointing at Zhou Chong, mouth opened wide, just unable to speak.

Zhou Chong remained calm, and continued to ask: "Prime Minister, why is this so? Zhou Chong is just asking, why should the Prime Minister take it seriously? If a person has done nothing wrong, he is not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night. The Prime Minister is so terrified. It seems that what Li Chu said must be true, this king of Chu is really not the blood of the previous kings of Chu."

Zhou Chong didn't need to give a conclusion, the officials of Chu State knew Li Yuan's appearance could not be fake, and they suddenly felt that they were too naive to think that it was nonsense in the past, and it was too worthless to be loyal to the King of Chu.I don't know who said "Go, go, go to meet the king!" and ran away.The king they said refers to the negative.

Before he could take two steps, a group of warriors with swords appeared at the door and rushed in. Two of them fought against one of them, and all the officials of Chu State were caught.

Two warriors went straight to Zhang Liangxing, Zhou Chong shouted: "Stop." He walked up to Zhang Liang and said, "Ovary is a great hero of the Qin Dynasty, so don't be rude." The warrior retreated just now.

Zhou Chong looked around at the ministers of the Chu State, and said: "My lords: If you come, you will be safe! Since you have come to the Great Qin Army, why should you go back? There is food and drink here, and you will not be hungry, no If you are thirsty, just stay."

The king of Chu stammered and asked, "Mr. Zhou, what are you going to do?"

Zhou Chong smiled and said: "Let me tell you, Zhou Chong was ordered by the Great Qin King to come to Chu to sweep away the filth and restore Chu to peace. You are not the blood of the former king of Chu, so why are you so attached to this seat? Ah, take off all his crown and royal clothes, and give him a set of common people's clothes."

The samurai did as he said, stripped off the king's crown and clothes, and put on a set of coarse kudzu clothes, just like a country bumpkin, without any royal air, trembling with fright.

Zhou Chong walked up to Li Yuan who was standing stupidly, and said with a smile, "Prime Minister, why should you panic? Don't worry, Zhou Chong will speak to the king to see if he can spare your life."

Li Yuan woke up with a start, and shouted: "Zhou Chong, you villain, you clearly want to destroy me, Dachu, but you came here in the name of helping the battle. You are such a villain! Woohoo, I, Li Yuan, are blind!" , I actually treat you as a villain, I hate it, I hate it!" In a hurry, blood came out of his mouth.

Zhou Chong was not angry at all, he chuckled and said, "The Prime Minister should light the torch, don't get angry. As for whether Zhou Chong is a gentleman or a villain, future generations will have their own conclusions, so there is no need for the Prime Minister to judge. You Don’t even think about it, the Great Qin’s unification of the world has been established long ago, and the five kingdoms in Shandong will be wiped out. Will the King of Great Qin let the Chu Kingdom fall apart? We originally planned to send 50 troops to destroy Chu, but we didn’t expect you to invite us to come and return it. We carry supplies, Daqin has no reason to refuse such a good deed, right?"

Li Yuan pointed at Zhang Liang, and said bitterly: "Zhang Liang, you have missed the country, you have missed a big event!"

Zhou Chong laughed, and said: "Prime Minister, you don't need to be angry, and you don't need to vent your anger on the ovary. It's because you didn't know the matter clearly, and your judgment was wrong. The ovary is just a suggestion. It's up to you to decide whether to use it or not. Why do you want to use it?" Can you push this mistake to Zifang? You can’t face up to your own mistakes, push all the mistakes to others, and you can’t leave the credit to others and take the credit of others. This is the reason for your failure, think about it.”

This is not an argument. Zhang Liang is also responsible for this kind of thing, but the main responsibility lies with Li Yuan. Who is to say that he is the final decision maker?If he doesn't nod, can this be done?
Li Yuan asked strangely, "Why are you talking to Zhang Liang?"

Zhang Liang said with a smile: "So that the Prime Minister can know that Zhang Liang and Mr. Zhou are inseparable. He entered Chu under the order of Mr. Zhou to maintain the stalemate in Chu. Fortunately, Zhang Liang did not disgrace his order and maintained the situation in Chu until the King of Qin until Chu is destroyed."

Li Yuan suddenly realized, and said: "You obviously want to cooperate with Zhou Chong in marching, so you came up with the idea of ​​moving the Qin army to help the battle? I, Li Yuan, are so stupid, so stupid, so stupid!" A mouthful of blood spurted out, and he fell on his back , passed away.

I don't know whether Li Yuan was pissed to death, or scared to death by such a battle!
