Chapter 609: If You Don’t Give Birth to Me and Raise Me, I Will Never Repay You! King Chu, I Am Here to Take You Home!

Ying Chengyu's words were like a heavy hammer hitting the almost undetectable softness in King Chu Qi's heart!

In the past, King Kaolie of Chu went to Da Qin to serve as a hostage, but while he was serving as a hostage, he left his four sons and secretly escaped from Da Qin and returned to Chu to succeed to the throne.

King Chu Kaolie's decisiveness helped him seize the throne of Chu King in one fell swoop, but it also caused the relationship between Qin and Chu to deteriorate sharply.

In order to avoid war, King Chu Kaolie ceded the Xiazhou area of ​​Chu to Qin when he ascended the throne. King Qin Zhaoxiang also returned King Chu Kaolie's four sons as a sign of goodwill.

However, King Chu Kaolie magnanimously only took back his three sons, letting Xiong Qi, the second son of the concubine who had just turned three years old, inherit the status of King Chu Kaolie's hostage and continue to stay in Qin to witness the good things between Qin and Chu.

This move brought back six years of peace between Qin and Chu.

This move made Xiong Qi watch helplessly as his father and mother ruthlessly left him alone in Da Qin!

How big a blow is this for a three-year-old child?

When Xiong Qi cried until his throat was swollen and he had difficulty breathing, the Queen Mother Huayang, who was still the Crown Princess at the time, took Xiong Qi back to the East Palace to raise him.

Empress Dowager Huayang gently taught Xiong Qi, who had never lived in Chu State for a day, to learn Chu language and understand Chu State's culture. She also asked famous teachers to carefully teach Xiong Qi to learn literature and martial arts.

In the sixth year of King Chu Kaolie's reign, King Chu Kaolie suddenly tore up the alliance with Qin and devoted himself to the Battle of Handan to "steal the talisman to save Zhao". He formed an alliance with Zhao and Wei and defeated the Qin army.

This move contributed to the only two commendable results in King Chu Kaolie's long life.

This move puts the nine-year-old Xiong Qi in a life-and-death crisis of 'beheading the protons of those who betray the alliance first'!

It was Empress Dowager Huayang who spent all day running and lobbying, saving Xiong Qi's life in a critical situation.

If the Empress Dowager Huayang hadn't tried her best to protect her, Xiong Qi would have died long ago!

Not to mention that the Queen Mother Huayang won Xiong Qi the title of Lord Changping, and sent Xiong Qi to enter the Qin Dynasty Hall to show off his talents.

Queen Mother Huayang is not Xiong Qi's biological mother, she is just a distant relative who has not yet emerged from the fifth server.

But how is the Queen Mother Huayang's treatment of Xiong Qi different from that of a biological mother's treatment of her own child?

No!

Many biological mothers cannot even reach the level of Queen Mother Huayang!

If you are alive but not nourished, you can get retribution by cutting off your fingers. If you are alive but nourished, you can get retribution by decapitating your head. If you are not born but nourished, it will be difficult to repay in a hundred lifetimes!

And how did he, Xiong Qi, repay the Queen Mother Huayang?

"The widow, the widow..."

The beautiful face of Queen Mother Huayang in the past but the vicissitudes of life today came to mind. King Chu Qi's fingers in his sleeves were trembling, and deep guilt and self-blame welled up in his eyes.

I cannot support the Queen Mother Huayang and support her until her death.

King Qi of Chu could comfort himself by saying that those who achieve great things should not stick to trivial matters.

He led a group of relatives of the Chu family to return to Chu State in a desperate attempt, causing the relatives of the Chu family of Great Qin to suffer heavy losses one after another, and completely withdrew from the first echelon of power in Great Qin.

King Qi of Chu could comfort himself by saying that those who achieve great things should not hesitate to sacrifice.

But King Qi of Chu knew very well that the Queen Mother Huayang didn't actually care about the so-called power, and she was easily satisfied.

As long as King Qi of Chu sends back a letter home and a basket of oranges, he can make the Queen Mother Huayang happy for a long time.

But to this day, King Qi of Chu has not even sent back a basket of oranges to the Queen Mother Huayang!

Is this the sacrifice needed to achieve great things?

Is this a trivial matter that those who want to achieve great things should be informal about?

King Chu Qi could deceive others, but he could not deceive himself!

He has just been completely blinded by power, and even his humanity!

"Ignorant!"

King Chu's hands clenched in his sleeves were clenched into fists, and his eyes were already red.

Zhaocen suddenly shouted in a low voice: "Your Majesty!"

"Don't fall for Lord Qin Changan's schemes!"

"Your Majesty is the king of my country, Chu. All the officers and soldiers in the army are looking at your Majesty."

"Only when the king is determined to fight, can the morale of our soldiers be high!"

After hearing Zhaocen's reminder, King Chu Qi subconsciously looked around and saw many soldiers around him lowering their heads or looking at him with strange eyes.

King Qi of Chu suddenly realized that Ying Chengyu's words were not only attacking his heart, but also attacking the hearts of all the Chu soldiers!

Many people know the life experience of King Qi of Chu, and also know the significance of Queen Mother Huayang to King Qi of Chu.

Although Chu State, like Qin State, did not care about filial piety.

But Chu State attaches great importance to ‘righteousness’!

If the Queen Mother of Huayang, whom King Qi of Chu treated like his own son, was so unjust, what would King Qi of Chu's attitude be towards other people?

Who would be willing to fight to the death for a ruthless king who has no loyalty?

The sense of crisis instantly suppressed the guilt.

After a few breaths, King Chu Qi turned to look at Ying Chengyu and said in a deep voice: "Send some oranges?"

"The Queen Mother Huayang educates the poor, is it just for some oranges?"

"I should do my best to strengthen my great Chu and lead my great Chu to become the overlord, so that I can live up to the Queen Mother's promise!"

Chu Jun was stunned when he heard this, and then his heart became hot.

yes.

Sending oranges is just a casual thing.

Leading Dachu to become the overlord is a feat that can truly make the elders happy!

And when King Qi of Chu accomplished this feat, they, the people of Chu, could also achieve their wishes together!

How nice!

Ying Chengyu looked at Xiong Qi with a puzzled look: "Of course, the Queen Mother does like to eat oranges."

"Last year, I went to Chu and found a lush orange grove. I used the flesh to make honey and orange jam, and the peel to make orange peel tea, which I presented to the Queen Mother."

"The Queen Mother is overjoyed to have received it!"

"I entered Chu once and it was quite difficult."

"But the King of Chu is in Chu State now, so it should be simple to send back some oranges."

"Why doesn't the King of Chu personally send the oranges to Huayang Palace instead of asking me to go to Chu to get the oranges myself?"

The ministers and generals of Chu State:! ! !

Are you ‘entering Chu’?

You clearly kicked open the gate of my country, Da Chu, and then took away the sacred land of my country of Chu - and also took away the oranges of my country of Chu!

If you want oranges, we will give them to you.

You can give as much as you want!

No matter how many times you go into Chu to get oranges, our country, Chu, will be destroyed!

threaten!

In the eyes of the officials, Ying Chengyu's words were definitely a naked threat!

Ying Chengxuan continued: "Father, brother Wang, and I have all worked hard and led our Great Qin to become the overlord."

"The Queen Mother's wishes will be fulfilled by us."

"Why does King Chu put so much pressure on himself?"

"Why don't you go back to Da Qin with me!"

"With the help of me and the Queen Mother, the King of Chu can still be one of the three princes of Qin."

"After handling official duties every day, I go to accompany the Queen Mother Huayang. If I am bored, I will go fishing with the King of Chu."

"The Weishui River is calm, so there won't be any dragons causing trouble."

"Isn't it beautiful?"

The reason King Chu Qi just found for himself was undermined.

The adopted sons and grandsons led the Qin Dynasty to great progress. Isn't that enough to meet the expectations of the Queen Mother Huayang?

You, the adopted son, have to run to an enemy country to develop and grow in order to live up to the teachings of the Queen Mother Huayang!

King Qi of Chu's face darkened.

What is the tranquility of the Weishui River?

Ying Chengxiao was clearly mocking him for being dragged into the water by a dragon while fishing!

King Chu took a step forward and shouted in a deep voice: "Today Qin is strong and strong, but our great Chu is united!"

"Qin Chang'an Lord, it's not good for me to bully my great Chu to fight with you!"

No matter what the soldiers of the Chu army thought in their hearts, at this moment they all agreed with King Qi of Chu and roared angrily:

"Fight! Fight! Fight!"

Facing the murderous defenders of Helu City, Ying Chengyu looked at King Qi of Chu from a distance with sincere eyes: "I am not here for war."

"But she is just trying to persuade the King of Chu on behalf of the Queen Mother to take the King of Chu home!"

All Chu army officers and soldiers: ⊙(◇)?

Looking at Ying Chengyu and then at King Qi of Chu, a thought inevitably emerged in the minds of many soldiers of the Chu army.

King Qi of Chu seemed to be a young man who had a falling out with his family and ran away from home to start his own business and pursue his dreams.

And Ying Chengxuan was the talented person in the family sent by Chu Wangqi's parents to take Chu Wangqi home.

King Qisheng of Chu continued to be his King of Chu.

The king of Chu was defeated and returned to be his prime minister of Qin.

Then what are these people who sacrificed their lives to protect Helu City and King Qi of Chu?

Clown? ! !

Sensing the confusion in the hearts of the soldiers, King Qi of Chu shouted without hesitation: "Don't say such ridiculous words again!"

"I will be the king of Chu in life, and I will be the ancestor of Chu in death!"

"And I will never do it for the Three Dukes of Qin!"

Ying Chengyu looked at King Chu Qi from a distance with disappointment: "Is the King of Chu really determined?"

"Wouldn't it be better to follow me back to Da Qin and continue to be the third prince of Da Qin?"

King Qi of Chu said decisively: "I will never set foot on Qin soil in my whole life!"

After Ying Chengyu was silent for a few breaths, he sighed helplessly: "What a tragedy! What a pity!"

"The King of Chu is unkind, but I cannot be unjust."

"For the sake of the Queen Mother, I will give King Chu another choice."

"War, or peace?"

For the third time, Ying Chengyu stood outside the capital of Chu State and asked a multiple-choice question about war and peace.

Zhaocen and other courtiers' hearts jumped.

This damn familiar feeling!

Ying Chengjian looked at Chu King Qi with sharp eyes: "The King of Chu immediately ordered the Chu army to withdraw to the south of the Huaihe River, assist our Great Qin in completing the relocation work of all the families of the martyrs who surrendered to Qin, and donated road funds."

"This general will renew the alliance with the Chu State on behalf of Da Qin. The two countries will return to peace, so that all people can rest and recuperate."

"Or let me lead our Qin-Qi coalition forces to crush Helu City."

"Take you home!"

Regarding Ying Chengxuan's proposal, Chu Wang Qi, Zhao Cen and other court officials were very excited.

Although Helu City has hope of blocking the Qin-Qi coalition led by Ying Chengyu, what is the cost?

Chu State’s last fortune was wiped out!

Unless the front line can achieve a complete victory and seize a large amount of land and population, Chu will not be able to fight again in the next twenty years.

However, the peace covenant is not something they can sign if they want to.

Xiang Yan refused to retreat!

King Qi of Chu could only shout in a deep voice: "Are the great soldiers of Chu afraid of fighting to the death?!"

On top of the city, fifty thousand Chu troops shouted in unison:

"war!"

Listening to this breathless voice, Ying Chengyu chuckled.

Is he lobbying King Qi of Chu?

No!

The person Ying Chengyu wanted to lobby was not King Qi of Chu, but the officers and soldiers of the Chu army in Helu City.

Judging from the performance of the Chu soldiers, Ying Chengyu had succeeded.

"Since the King of Chu is determined to fight to the death, I have no other words to say."

Ying Chengyu raised his hands towards Helv City, then reined in his horse and turned around, shouting in a deep voice:

"Send orders to all ministries!"

"Siege the city!"
