Spring and Autumn I Am King

Chapter 997: heartbeat

In the records of the Spring and Autumn Period historians, in ancient times, Zhuanxu of Gaoyang gave birth to an old boy, and the old boy gave birth to Chongli. Chongli served as Gao Xin's Huozheng, and he was very meritorious, so Gao Xin gave him the position of "Zhu Rong", which is Fire is. Afterwards, the Gonggong clan was in chaos, and Chongli was killed by Emperor Ku due to his ineffective combat. Chongli's younger brother Wu Hui took over as Huozheng and was still called Zhu Rong. The branch is from Chu with the surname Mi.

Therefore, the royal family of Chu proudly calls themselves "the descendants of Emperor Gaoyang". In the kingdom of Chu, the king of Chu is like a god. He is the incarnation of the phoenix. In his blood, there is a raging fire that has continued since the age of Zhu Rong...

But most people would never think that even this royal family like a **** has its own fatal weakness.

It was more than 200 years ago when the king of Chu, Xiong Tong, said in a rage because the Zhou royal family refused to confer his title: "My ancestor lived in Chu with his sons and sons, and the barbarians were all led by him, but the king did not increase his throne. I'm proud of myself!" Once again, he arrogantly claimed the title of king. He pursued an iron-fisted policy, conquered the Jianghan Plain, turned Hanyang Zhu Ji into his own vassal state, and conquered Pu and Yangyue, and the Chu state became strong.

But it was such a hero who died of an incurable disease in his later years.

In the 51st year of King Wu of Chu, the State of Chu sent troops to attack because of the betrayal of the country. Before leaving, King Wu of Chu said to his wife Deng Man: "Yu Xindang..."

From a young age, the heartbeat of the King of Chu was often disturbed, but he did not take it seriously, but this time, this hidden danger cost King Wu of Chu's life. He died on the way to go to Suiguo due to a sudden heart attack. Beneath a coriander tree...

If King Wu of Chu died suddenly in his later years, then his son King Wen of Chu died in his prime.

King Wen of Chu inherited his father's legacy and continued to expand the state of Chu. He moved the capital from his hometown of Danyang to Yanying. On the basis of the Jianghan Plain, he destroyed Shen and Deng, occupied the Nanyang Basin, and then destroyed the state of Xi, controlled the state of Cai, and attacked the state of Cai. Zheng Guo, the soldiers pointed directly at the Central Plains, so that the Central Plains historian at that time recorded in horror: "Nanman and Beidi have invaded, and China is endless..."

This southern barbarian refers to the state of Chu.

However, as if he was cursed, King Wen, like his father, also died on the journey because of "heart swing"...

The sudden death of the monarchs one after another made the people of Chu suspicious and worried about the next king of Chu, Yin and Sima.

Fortunately, in the next two hundred years, there may be no need to fight so desperately in person, or because medical conditions have improved. Although the Chu kings of all dynasties have more or less heart problems, at least there is no sudden death. It is Chu. The Qu family and Dou family, the branches of the royal family, have had several incidents of "heart turbulence" leading to death.

However, to this day, looking at the king of Chu who was lying on the sickbed, without the appearance of a dragon and a tiger in the past, Ye Gongshen, Zhuliang, Gongziqi and other talents sadly discovered that the strange disease did not leave the Chu royal family, they just hibernated. , looking for an opportunity to reappear...

In the process of escaping from Yingdu many years ago, Xiong Zhen had a sign of heartache. Since then, this disease will occur from time to time. It is common to call a doctor to the palace for diagnosis and treatment. He does not believe that Wu Zhu's prayers can save you. Oneself, a divination person once said that the strange disease of the Chu royal family was caused by the **** of the river, and it could be cured as long as it was sacrificed. However, the King of Chu scoffed, and the doctors asked to offer sacrifices in the suburbs, but the King of Chu also categorically refused.

He said: "In the Three Dynasties, it was stipulated that the sacrificial system should not surpass the mountains and rivers of the country. The Yangtze River, the Han River, the Sui River, and the Zhang River are the great rivers in the state of Chu. The fate of the widow is determined by these great rivers. The big river has nothing to do with it! If you want to sacrifice to the river god, alright, let’s wait until the few people expand their land to the riverside!”

So at this moment, there are still some doctors in the account, but they are helpless, and they all shake their heads and accuse them.

If Zhao Wuxi was here, he might tell the King of Chu and Duke Ye that this disease is called coronary heart disease, and it will be inherited in the family, causing symptoms such as myocardial ischemia, angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, heart failure, sudden death and so on...

Unfortunately, the descendants of Emperor Gaoyang have been plagued by this genetic disease since Queen Wu of Chu, and in this era, there is no cure.

The one who was finally allowed to enter the tent was a Taishi of the Zhou royal family. He took refuge in Chu during the chaos of the Wangzi Dynasty. After the assassination of the Wangzi Dynasty, this Taishi lost his allegiance and could only talk in the palace of the King of Chu. eat.

Taishi was proficient in medicine, but after diagnosing the pulse of the King of Chu, he was shocked by the weakened heartbeat, and he was sweating coldly. From a medical point of view, he could not give an answer. The disease is incurable... but if a ritual ceremony is held, it may be transferred to Ling Yin and Sima..."

King Xiong Zhen of Chu opened his eyes. Although his lips were a little pale, he still said word by word: "Throw this person out, and you will not be allowed to enter the country of Chu again in this life!"

After his subordinates drove away Taishi, who was begging for mercy, the King of Chu said weakly to Ye Gong: "Ling Yin and Sima are not only my brothers, but also the two pillars of the Chu country. Get rid of the disease in your heart, and Putting it on the thigh and arm, although it can survive for a while, but if the hands, feet, and limbs are disabled, how long can the belly and heart survive? If God wants the widow to die here, it is also a helpless thing, what is the use of offering sacrifices?"

"Zhu Rong will definitely protect the king!" The son bowed his head.

Ye Gongze said, "Your Majesty, why don't you go back to Yexian to recuperate first..."

"Do not!"

The King of Chu waved his hand, and with the help of Young Master Qi, he propped himself up and said breathlessly: "When King Wu of Chu said that his heartbeat was restless, Deng Man once said, 'If the master and the apprentice have no loss, Wang Yuyu Go, the blessing of the country.' This sentence is well said, even if the widow is unfortunate to die in the army, you must not forget the purpose of this trip. Ye Gong, go and continue to command the siege, if the widow is unable to fight even Lu Hun When I come down, I really want to make Zhao shi look down, make the world laugh, and shame my ancestors!"

Ye Gong bowed down and promised: "I will obey the king's order! Three days, Lu Hun will be pulled out within three days!"

...

The city wall of civil and wooden structure became riddled with holes and miserable under the destruction of the strong bow. However, the Zhao clan above is still fluttering in the wind, with high spirits, as if he is cheering for another victory of the defenders, but Lu Hun, who was able to do it well a few days ago, is now dead.

From yesterday, the Chu army's offensive suddenly became extremely fierce. The Chu army rushed to the top of the city without fear of death, and fought with the Zhao army. Fortunately, the terrain of Lu Hun City prevented them from investing too much troops at one time, so the city head was again It was taken back by Zhao Jun.

But the price was heavy. There was a thick smell of blood wafting in the slightly humid air. The front of the city was a mess, and the narrow aisles were densely packed with people, some of them dead in battle, and some of them exhausted. Ground, Zhao Bing, who can never get up again.

Wang Sunsheng was also lying in a corner. He was not happy because he repelled the attack of the Chu army. Unlike the Zheng people who fought before, everyone he killed these days should have been his soldiers.

Another burst of pain came from his hand. After contemplating his thoughts, Wang Sunsheng looked impatiently at his right hand, which was tightly wrapped in a thick cloth. When he drove the Chu army off the city just now~lightnovelpub.net~ Commander Wang Sunsheng was also caught in a hand-to-hand battle. He was hit by a stray arrow, and the sharp arrow directly penetrated his right palm. Although the arrow was pulled out under the treatment of the doctor and disinfected to prevent tetanus, it still remained. A **** wound.

Wang Sunsheng had never suffered such a serious injury. As long as he moved a little, he could feel the huge pain from the wound that was pierced by the arrow, but that was fine, at least he was sure that his palm was still on his body, and he also used the Pain keeps me from sleeping.

Because it was life or death, and it was tonight, Wang Sunsheng didn't want to lose his life in his sleep.

"You're going to invite the deputy division commander..." After thinking for a while, Wang Sunsheng suddenly said to the black-clothed man beside him who had been monitoring him.

In the past few days, Wang Sunsheng was very brave. He didn't hesitate to kill the people of Chu, and he commanded them properly. Lu Hun's ability to defend until now is entirely due to his talent in military use, so the black-clothed guards did not treat Wang Sunsheng as much as before. I was wary, but I also doubted whether Wang Sunsheng was going to let him go.

"I have something to say to the deputy division commander." Wang Sunsheng raised his right hand to show that he couldn't even lift a sword fight, and there was no threat, and then added: "It's a big deal, it's about Lu Hun's survival, it's about the city. The life and death of the soldiers! Let’s go quickly!” (To be continued.)
