Spring and Autumn GL

59 Gou Jian destroys Wu

Fu Chai stood on the top of the city facing the wind, and the sad wind blew by, pouring bloody air into his nose.He knew very well that the end of the Wu Kingdom had come, and even depression seemed so powerless at this moment.He originally wanted to sit in the palace, wait for the Vietnamese army to besiege the city, enter the palace, and then capture him with nothing to worry about.

"Soldiers of the Wu Kingdom are all strong men. Compared with them, I am a widow..." Fu Chai looked down at the city and murmured.None of the sergeants who accompanied Zheng Dan came back, Fu Chai couldn't help feeling a little sad.There are so many heroes, all of whom are brave and loyal, but now their bones are scattered in the wilderness, nowhere to be found, and he himself is so stupid and stubborn, as the king of a country, he sits and waits to die.Now the country is ruined and the family is destroyed. Compared with it, love and hatred are insignificant. The only thing I can do now is to try my best to save the lives of the living.

He gathered all the imperial physicians in Xiangzhe Gallery, thinking that at least he could save his life and tell his fate.This is the last thing he can do as the king of a country.

"Homeless, I really want to let you live, but you..." Fu Chai closed his eyes and shook his head.

The bows and arrows at the top of the city had already been shot, and the sergeants threw their bows and arrows down the city in desperation, hoping to kill more Vietnamese troops.

Fu Chai saw that the Vietnamese army had surrounded the city, and he was about to kill Gusu City without leaving any pieces of it when the ladders came together.Seeing the king raising the white flag, the sergeants around him stopped attacking one after another, looked at Fu Chai disappointedly, and crouched down in the corner of the wall.

Gou Jian saw a white flag fluttering over the city of Gusu from a distance, smiled, ordered Ming Jin to withdraw the troops, and drove two horses with Fan Li to the city.He looked up and asked:

"Fucha, have you finally surrendered the widow? Even if you know the current affairs, you didn't open the city quickly to welcome my army from the Yue Kingdom, but what else do you want to say?"

Fu Chai stared and shouted: "Goujian, I let you live in Kuaiji Mountain, and now I can't regret it. I don't blame you for being insidious and cunning, but I only blame myself for being indecisive, not discerning loyalty and traitors, and letting the tiger return to the mountain and let the dragon into the sea. Now open The city is also available, but I have to meet two conditions: first, do not disturb the people of Wu, and second, do not kill my soldiers who surrendered in Wu. Can you agree?"

Gou Jian laughed loudly: "Fu Chai, Fu Chai, look at what you look like now? What capital do you have to negotiate terms with me? To be honest, I'm not interested in the lives of the people of your Wu Kingdom. I just want to catch you and let you try it too." Taste the humiliation I suffered back then! How about it, as long as you kowtow to me three times and promise to be a slave by my side for ten years, I will spare your life. Ten years later, I will also let you go , but this Gusu City can no longer pay you back!"

Fu Chai was not angry, but just smiled neither humble nor overbearing, which made Gou Jian feel hairy all over, and couldn't help thinking, this Fu Chai is so calm, is there some kind of ambush in Gusu City?Unexpectedly, Fu Chai suddenly dropped the white flag, picked up the sword and put it on his neck. The sergeant under his command saw it and hurried over to stop him, but Fu Chai scolded him back with angry eyes.

"Goujian!" Fu Chai yelled: "In any case, in our Wu Kingdom, there are only monarchs who die in battle, and there is no king who is greedy for life! Today I will kill myself here. If you dare to touch a hair of the people of my Wu Kingdom, I will kill you!" Disturb your restless life!"

After saying that, twisting his arm, the blade cut his throat deeply, and blood gushed out.Fu Chai fell straight from the city and landed on his back, kicking up a cloud of dust.

"No home..." Fu Chai stared at a red cloud in the sky, muttered silently, and then his eyes became loose, but he still held the long sword tightly.

Gou Jian was not at all happy, he was very unwilling, why did Fu Chai die so cleanly?He has not had time to pay back the humiliation he has done to him!Out of anger, he was about to order the massacre of the city. Wen Zhong and Fan Li got off their horses in a hurry, and both knelt down in front of Gou Jian's horse.

Fan Li said: "Your Majesty, please calm down. Fu Chai has already killed himself. The state of Wu has been destroyed. The great revenge has been avenged. Why bother to embarrass the innocent people?"

Wen Zhong continued: "At present, Gusu City is full of mourners. If the king orders the massacre of the city again, I am afraid that the people of the entire Wu Kingdom will be lost. The annexation of the two countries, the people's hearts are the foundation, the people's hearts are unstable, and the foundation is not strong. Attack, I'm afraid it will collapse! Now An Min is the best plan!"

Fan Li said again: "Thinking that Your Majesty is willing to sacrifice his salary and risk his courage for the sake of the Yue Kingdom, now that the great event has been accomplished, why can't he swallow his anger?"

Goujian gradually calmed down after hearing what the two said. At this time, soldiers who had surrendered opened the gate of the city, but few people greeted the Vietnamese army.

"Give the order. When entering the city, don't disturb the people. If anyone refuses to obey the order, he will be dealt with by military law." Gou Jian said expressionlessly.

In the corridor of ringing clogs, three or four imperial doctors hurriedly bandaged Azhi. Three of the eighteen arrows in her body hit the vital points, and she was dying.Xishi's eyes were full of tears, she really couldn't figure out how Ah Zhi ran back amidst the thousands of armies.However, it was not Ah Zhi who made her sad the most. Although she was seriously injured, she still had the possibility of getting better, while Zheng Dan had already lost his breath and his body had cooled down.The imperial doctor only took one look at her, then shook their heads and stepped back to save Ah Zhi.

"No home..." Xi Shi rested Zheng Dan's head on her lap without focusing her eyes, and closed her eyes for her.Although Zheng Dan's eyes were closed, the mocking smile on the corner of his mouth never faded away.At this moment, he didn't know who she was mocking, Fan Li, Fu Chai, or herself?Or mock fate?

No.Shih Tzu thought.Obviously fate made fun of her, and she was the last person who shouldn't laugh, why are you laughing at this time, what are you laughing at?

The more she laughed, the sadder Xi Shi became. Zheng Dan's smile lingered, and Xi Shi's sadness was out of control.She hugged her and cried silently.

It is clear that you are the one who wants to escape, no matter who dies, everyone obviously wants you to escape, but you are the one who died—why are you so stubborn, so ignorant... so... heartbreaking, and dying alone , when you die, the dust is flying, and you are surrounded by enemies, why are you not afraid?

The more Xi Shi thought about it, the more painful it became, and she felt dizzy, as if Zheng Dan's body had some powerful attraction, trying to suck her soul out, enter Zheng Dan's body, and make her come back to life.

While in a trance, she suddenly felt that someone was shaking her, she suddenly came back to her senses, and saw Bo Pi standing beside her anxiously.

"Your Majesty, my condolences go with the flow, don't hurt your heart."

Xi Shi wiped her eyes: "Doctor Bo Pi, I am no longer a lady."

Bo Pi cupped his fists: "It's just that, I'm not a doctor anymore. Just now King Wu...he committed suicide in the city..."

Although Xi Shi was surprised, she didn't think there was anything out of the ordinary about this matter, as if she knew it should be like this early on.

"Your Majesty...Miss Yiguang, the army of the Yue Kingdom has already entered the city, and I'm afraid they will enter the Wu Palace soon, so it's better to take shelter first."

Xi Shi sneered: "Don't bother, doctor, you can take refuge first, Yi Guang can't leave them alone, so he has to resign himself to fate."

Bo Pi sighed: "I know you can't even look down on me. I deserve what I deserve. I was the overseer when I repaired the doorway. At that time, I secretly asked the foreman to give me a hint and hid some belongings in it. It is hidden, there is absolutely no possibility of discovery, you can trust me, there is no need for me to do anything extra."

Xi Shi looked around, and when several imperial doctors heard these words, they all looked like Bo Pi asking for help. Carried into the secret room.

However, the secret room was originally small, and it was filled with heavy antique calligraphy and paintings, and it was already the limit to accommodate three people.Bo Pi made a decisive decision, and personally moved out the whole box of treasures, threw them in the corner and burned them, without blinking an eye.

"Don't you feel bad?" Xi Shi asked.

Bo Pi said while moving: "It would be a lie to say that I don't feel distressed, but I have already settled down my family before the two armies fought. As a doctor of Wu, if I don't show up, the Vietnamese army will definitely search for me all over the city." Xiaojia——for them, I couldn't keep my life, so what's the use of these treasures?"

After working for a long time, only part of it was moved out, and the rest of the boxes full of gold bars and copper coins could not be moved, so they had to be put there.After a lot of tossing, two more people finally squeezed in, but there were still two more.

"Miss Yiguang, Miss Zheng is dead, there is no need to hide her anymore, let's save one more life."

Xi Shi shook her head: "No, even if she dies and her body is found and sent back to the Yue Kingdom, she must be humiliated. In the eyes of the Yue people, she is a traitor."

Bo Pi sighed, touched his sleeve, and took out a black bead from it:

"Forget it, I'll give you this thing. It's contained in Miss Zheng's mouth, and it can keep the body from rot for three months. I was afraid that I would die in the chaos and no one would collect the body, so I kept it for myself. Now it seems that I don't have it." It is necessary."

Xi Shi finally thanked her and put the orb in Zheng Dan's mouth.But I didn't mean to go in, I just pushed an old imperial doctor outside.

Bo Pi was very different: "Won't the girl hide?"

Xi Shi shook her head: "I come from the country of Yue, and I have a deep relationship with the country of Yue. Even if they break up now, they will definitely find me at all costs. Even if they hide for a while, they won't be able to hide for a lifetime. On the contrary, there will be trouble. I hope that with me alone, the homeless can rest in peace, and Ah Zhi can have time to heal his wounds."

Then she turned her head and said to the imperial doctors: "You all did not abandon my country of Wu when the catastrophe was approaching, and you are all Yiguang's benefactors. So, I hope you can try your best to save Miss Azhi, and if she recovers, Yi Guang will be able to rest in peace even under the Nine Springs."

The imperial physicians were silent for a long time, with tears in their eyes.The leading elderly imperial doctor bowed his hands and said:

"I am grateful for your mother's life-saving grace. I will try my best to treat it with all my life's knowledge. If it can't be cured, I will pay you for my life!"

All the imperial doctors nodded in agreement, Xi Shi smiled slightly, and glanced at A Zhi, seeing her frowning, seemed to feel something in her heart, so she hurriedly bent down and said softly:

"Ah Zhi, you wait here for a while. I'll go out and get some food. Wu won the battle, so we need good wine and good food to celebrate. From now on, we won't fight any more."

Azhi's brows seemed to relax a little, and his breathing became steady.

Xishi bit her lips tightly to keep her tears from flowing, said goodbye to the imperial doctors, carefully closed the door of the secret room, and walked side by side to the main hall with Bo Pi, the grief and indignation filled Gusu, and the two remained silent all the way.
