The Empress Dowager of the King of Chu wept bitterly as she looked at the people in the side hall. She realized how hypocritical those who were usually enthusiastic and fawning on her were, while Wu Zixu was watching all of this coldly. Perhaps this was retribution from back then. There was nothing he could do about it except to sigh.
"Brother Wu, I heard that you were having a good time here? You actually didn't bring your brother along. Isn't that too mean?”Yu Heng pushed the door open and walked in, followed by Xiang Rong and a team of bodyguards.
Wu Zixu was focused on his revenge, but he didn't expect that his strict order to be disturbed by outsiders would be broken by Yu Heng.
"General Yu, why are you here? I'm doing some private matters and settling some personal grudges.”Wu Zixu felt that it was a little sudden. He noticed that Xiang Rong, who was behind him, looked even more worried and anxious.
"We're brothers. I just came to take a look and cheer you up. I understand what happened to you back then. If it were me, I would have a target for every injustice and a debt for every debt.”After Yu Heng looked at King Chu who was forced into a corner, he suddenly had a tender heart, so he tactfully persuaded him.
"Lord Wu, the one who framed your family back then was King Ping of Chu. The one who owed more than a hundred lives was King Ping of Chu.”Xiang Rong took the opportunity to persuade Wu Zixu as well. Because he knew the whole thing back then, Wu Zixu also knew what he was saying.
"General Xiang, save me." The Queen of Chu seemed to have seen the hope of freedom, so she begged. Wu Zixu's methods just now were too ruthless. How could she be a person in the future?
"Greetings, Your Majesty. Xiang Rong has done his best.”
The King of Chu returned to despair, but in his despair, he noticed that the tall and mighty Yuheng beside him, although he did not know what was so special about him, must have a deep background since he called Wu Zixu brother.
"Sir, please do me a favor and save me. I will thank you heavily.”
"Hehe, how much should I thank you for? I want to see." Yu Heng joked. Everyone present held their breaths. The atmosphere was very tense, and an oppressive feeling pervaded the entire side hall.
And this focus was Yu Heng. Only Yu Heng could change all of this. The key was a matter of will.
"I, I can thank you however you want.”In order to get out of the current predicament, Queen Chu actually took out a blank check for the other party to fill in. Yu Heng was secretly proud of himself and calculated in his heart. What kind of situation did such a beautiful woman have to be in to promise such a big thing? Wasn't he selling himself?
"Interesting. Alright, I'll take it all.”
Yu Heng walked forward and whispered a few words to Wu Zixu. After getting the other party's nod, he turned to the crowd and said," Brother Wu feels that we should stop here today. We will wait for his orders in the future. As for King Chu Ping, although he is dead, we cannot let him off easily. In order to appease the vengeful souls and spur the future generations, Lord Wu and I have discussed and decided to whip King Chu Ping's corpse as punishment.”Yu Heng did not change history, but there was such a scene in history, so he said.
"Milord, no, you can't do that. That will arouse the anger of the people.”The King of Chu's queen instinctively stepped forward to express her opposition.
"Hmm? You object? Don't tell me you still want Brother Wu to put this debt on your head?”Yu Heng questioned. Queen Chu quickly took a few steps back after hearing this. She was so scared that she was out of her wits and shook her head vigorously.
"No, no, I don't dare." The Queen of Chu was shocked and did not dare to raise any objections. Even Xiang Rong knew that this was a consolation for the living in exchange for the dead, just to take care of Wu Zixu's revenge.
"Haha, that's right." After saying that, he pulled Wu Zixu and walked out. When he passed by the Queen of Chu, he whispered with a sly smile,"Niangniang, I will go and have a heart-to-heart talk with you tonight.”
Empress Chu had never seen such a scoundrel with no manners. She was the lord of the palace. Usually, other than the king, no one dared to disrespect her. Now, she could only shyly lower her noble head.
Under the guidance of the internal officials of the Chu Country, they quickly found the burial place of King Ping of Chu. It was majestic and magnificent. It faced south and was surrounded by mountains on three sides. It was a place of Feng Shui. It was obviously very exquisite.
When Wu Zixu saw that his enemy could rest in peace here, and that his family members who had died unjustly had no one to collect their bodies, he felt a huge difference. Other than regret, he was even more furious. All the misfortune was caused by this King Ping of Chu.
"What do you think is the greatest punishment for a dead person?”Wu Zixu's eyes were spitting fire as he asked the minister who led the way.
"This, this…" The eunuch lowered his head and did not dare to answer. Although King Ping of Chu was dead, if the current King Chu knew about it, he would also die.
"Whip the corpse." In order to please Wu Zixu, Wang Meng said the most vicious word.
"Alright, Lord Wang is right. This fatuous ruler should be flogged.”Wu Zixu deliberately mentioned Wang Meng's suggestion. Everyone was surprised to see that this despicable man who was usually fawning over the King of Chu had actually sold out his master at the critical moment.
Wang Meng's forehead was dripping with sweat.
"Dig the grave and open the coffin." Wu Zixu only wanted to see that step as soon as possible, so he ordered.
More than a dozen bodyguards rushed forward. After half a day, the huge tomb was quickly overturned, and the coffin of King Ping of Chu was displayed in front of everyone.
Other than the soldiers of the State of Wu, all the people of the State of Chu knelt down and cried.
"Lord Wu, you can't. That's treason.”
"All of you, get up. Did this fatuous ruler treat you as humans in the past? If anyone dared to not get up and plead for this fatuous ruler, they would go down to the netherworld to see this fatuous ruler.”
Wu Zixu was even more annoyed when he saw these ignorant people.
He personally picked up the whip and whipped King Ping of Chu's corpse. The scene was very tragic.
Yu Heng was tactful and did not follow them today. He was disgusted to see this. In the past, he would avoid the morgue when he saw a doctor in the hospital, so he still could not bear to see it with his own eyes.
There was another important thing, and that was the Queen of Chu's beauty. He did not want to miss such a beautiful thing.
After everyone left, he brought Mi Ya to the Eastern Palace, where the King of Chu's empress lived.
Along the way, the guards saw that the general was coming, so they did not stop him and let him in.
At this moment, it was an object. Empress Chu, Ji Hui, was resting with her eyes closed. She was wearing a thin gauze dress, which was very beautiful and eye-catching.
Yu Heng signaled the palace maids around him to keep quiet while he quietly approached until he reached Ji Hui's side and sat down. The other party's elegant sleeping posture, breathing like orchids, was full of rhythm, especially the undulating breathing sound, it was soul-stirring.
