Chapter 643 Li Yanyan returns to her heart
Xiong Han, who now sits on the throne of King Chu, is definitely not the son of King Chu Kaolie, but Li Yanyan’s second son Xiong You is definitely the child of King Chu Kaolie. But when Xiong Han’s bloodline is in doubt, Xiong You’s bloodline is also It was natural to be suspicious.
If there were to be another King of Chu, who would be the most suitable?
Mi Qi and Mi Dian who were far away in Qin State were not taken into consideration. Although the two brothers had re-opened contact with Chu State in recent years, it was simply impossible for these two brothers to escape from Qin State.
And all that was left of King Chu Kaolie was the lowly born concubine.
Fu Chu's mother was just a bought palace maid. She had no father or mother and could not provide support to Fu Chu. He himself was not loved by King Chu Kaolie, so he was named "Fu Chu".
Those who carry the cud are also like woodcutters who carry firewood on their backs. This shows that the King of Chu was not happy with them.
But after all, he was his biological son, so he was given a piece of land, but he just left it there to be free-range, and he was not assigned a teacher to prevent this bastard from posing any threat to Xiong Han.
But even if King Chu Kaolie doesn't like this son, he is still King Chu Kaolie's biological son. Isn't he better than Xiong Han and Xiong You whose bloodline is questionable?
And this is a young man who has no maternal support, so it is easiest to control.
There are some things that Li Yuan can do, but they can't?
Wouldn't it be easier to control a bastard with no foundation, no power, no reputation, and a "low name" to earn profits for nobles like them?
As for Fu Chu, he doesn't take the initiative, refuses, or takes responsibility. He uses a scumbag's trick to devour the resources sent by the clan and nobles, develops his own strength, and strengthens the power behind him.
And this is Li Yuan's biggest hidden danger today.
Li Yuan had more than once thought of secretly disposing of this restless concubine of the late king, but the nobles of the clan, headed by Qu Jingzhao's family, had warned Li Yuan privately.
First of all, no matter how unpopular Fu Chu is, he is also a descendant of the Xiong family named Mi. How can he be allowed to be easily insulted or even assassinated by outsiders?
Secondly, no matter how good the relationship between the Chu clan and Li Yuan is, they still have to be on guard against Li Yuan having some inappropriate thoughts one day.
Bearing Cu is the chess piece they use to prevent problems before they happen, and it is also the guarantee for them to maintain a long-term friendly relationship with Li Yuan.
You can listen to a few sweet words with pleasure, but only benefits can win people's hearts. Only by holding the weight that each other dares not to fall out with, can the balance of friendly relations be maintained and not tilt towards the other end.
But this time, Li Yuan failed miserably.
Although the Chu army did not fall into any tricks, and the defeat was purely due to the military strength of the two countries and Zhang Ji's personal bravery, a defeat was a defeat. Even though the command was entrusted to Xiang Yan by Li Yuan, Xiang Yan was Li Yuan's people, all the blame will ultimately be placed on Li Yuan.
And this also rekindled some of the little thoughts of the clan and nobles.
"Gathering troops secretly?"
Li Yanyan frowned and her expression changed slightly.
According to Zhang Ji's information, Fu Chu has secretly contacted many powerful clans and powerful nobles. Fu Chu has also secretly recruited dead soldiers and private soldiers, and even established a large-scale iron smelting factory underground in the Young Master's Mansion. Workshop, privately forge weapons and armor.
"Shu Zi is very ambitious!"
Li Yanyan gritted her teeth and couldn't help but cursed Fu Chu.
But in fact, Zhang Ji and Li Yanyan knew each other well. What Li Yanyan really wanted to scold was the clan and nobles. When they were carving up the piece of meat torn from the Wei State, everyone still drank and mingled with each other, like aliens. Half-brothers are as close as brothers, but a defeat shakes them all.
But at this time, whether it is private or public, these people should not do this!
The Chu State has not yet experienced turmoil. Under the control of her brother Li Yuan, the whole country has clearly failed to defeat the Qin State. This general army is composed of newcomers. In the future, if Wang Jian, Li Xin, General Teng, etc. Ren Xi leads the main force of the Qin army south to attack Chu. Can the state of Chu still survive?
But when the Chu State was facing serious foreign aggression, these people planned to start an internal rebellion!
"Fool!"
No matter how well-educated Li Yanyan was, she couldn't help but curse again.
"I still have several lists here, namely the nobles who have completely decided to move closer to Xiangchu, the nobles who are neutral, the nobles who are wavering, and the nobles who still do not intend to waver."
Zhang Ji held several lists in his hand and waved to Li Yanyan, as if he was coming to beg me soon.
Li Yanyan bit her thin lips lightly, her beautiful eyes filled with mist, and made a bold move. She took the initiative to kiss Zhang Ji, and when Zhang Ji was in a mood, she took the lists away from his hands. "While you are staying in Chu, well, I will cooperate with you to develop the sword moves you want in return."
After winning, Li Yanyan leaned in Zhang Ji's arms and made her promise while reading the list in her hand. Her pretty face was redder than last night. She didn't know whether it was because she was shy about kissing Zhang Ji proactively or because she was shy. She felt guilty because she felt that this information that was crucial to her and Li Yuan was taken away at such a price.
But... Zhang Ji didn't care too much.
"It doesn't matter, I just want to exchange them for a promise."
Zhang Ji caressed Li Yanyan's cheek with a gentle expression, like a man who fell in love and did many things just to make the beauty smile.
"If there is no hope for Chu State in the future, or if your brother cannot defeat the rebels in the future, come to Xianyang with your children to find me. I will take care of you mother and son for the rest of their lives and ensure that your children will be rich and worry-free for the rest of their lives."
Li Yanyan, who was leaning in Zhang Ji's arms, trembled, her expression visibly lonely, and she murmured: "Is this just a promise?"
"Yes, everyone in the world knows that I, Zhang Ji, prefer beauty to fame. It's a pity that you are the Queen Mother of Chu State. Otherwise, I would definitely marry you home in style and tell the world that you are my woman."
Li Yanyan didn't say anything, she just leaned quietly in Zhang Ji's arms, letting Zhang Ji wrap his arms around her slender waist and hold her in his arms.
She could hear the sincerity of Zhang Ji's consideration for her in his words. He was the first man besides his brother Li Yuan to truly consider her.
She no longer had any barriers in her heart towards the man holding her.
"Zhang Jun, I want it."
"If you insist, I can only give it to you."
Helpless, Zhang Ji could only work day and night and contribute his body to Li Yanyan's anger.
Of course, these reactions of Li Yanyan were also expected by Zhang Ji.
If this information can be exchanged for Li Yanyan's heart and more sword moves, then it is indeed worth it.
After all... this information was originally intended to be given to Li Yuan for free.
This is a weapon used to stir up chaos in Chu!
This list seems to be used to help Li Yuan stabilize the situation, but in fact it is a reminder to provoke civil strife in Chu!
The lists provided by Zhang Ji are indeed true, but these lists are also shocking. There are too many nobles who have fallen in love or wavered.
People, once you have suspicion, you can never go back to the past.
From then on, Li Yuan would be more worried about other nobles falling in love with the cud, and would start to monitor the remaining nobles who did not fall in the opposite direction. In the long run, even the nobles who favored Li Yuan would be dissatisfied, which would lead to conflicts between Li Yuan and the Chu nobles. broke up, eventually triggering an internal rebellion within the Chu State.
Moreover, Li Yuan definitely cannot defeat the rebels.
It is impossible for Xiang Yan to choose to side with Li Yuan in an internal struggle between the sons of King Chu Kaolie. Not helping the two sides is the limit of what he can do as a member of the Xiang family.
As soon as Li Yuan is defeated, Zhang Ji will immediately mobilize all the killers deployed in Chu State to bring Li Yanyan and her son to Xianyang.
At that time, Qin will attack Chu, and there will be natural justice!
The Qin State sent troops to put down the rebellion on behalf of the King of Chu and the Queen Mother of Chu, wipe out the rebels, and recapture the Kingdom of Chu. By the way, in the name of the King of Chu, they could also clean up those nobles who were doing evil on the pretext of suppressing the rebellion.
As for the King of Chu's intention to abdicate to the King of Qin, that was a personal act.
Of course, whether it was for Ying Zheng and him to take the blame for killing the nobles, or for an act of surrender, Xiong Han and Xiong You would be treated well.
It not only meets Qin's strategic needs, but also takes care of Li Yanyan's mother and son, and also helps Zhang Ji completely win Li Yanyan's heart. This is called a triple win!
He won three times!
