Great Qin's son-in-law

Chapter 472 With Chu as the boundary, let's play a game! (seeking subscription)

The next day.

Go back to the side hall of the central palace.

Qin Luoheng was sitting on the mat with incense burning beside him, and there were some meals on the table, which were steaming hot now.

He didn't move his chopsticks in a hurry.

Instead, he sat quietly, as if he was still waiting for someone.

Soon.

There were rustling footsteps outside the hall.

An eunuch walked respectfully into the hall.

leaned over and said:
"My lord, Supervisor Meng Zuo has arrived."

Qin Luoheng smiled and said, "Please invite Supervisor Meng Zuo in."

The eunuch promised and left the side hall.

After ten or so breaths, Meng Yi, who was wearing a Xie Zhi crown, appeared in the hall. When he saw Qin Luoheng, Meng Yi bowed and said, "Please refer to the ten sons."

Qin Luoheng nodded slightly.

He smiled and said: "I came back from somewhere, and I don't know too much court etiquette, so it may be inappropriate to receive people and treat guests. This time I took the liberty to invite Meng Zuo Jian here because I want to discuss my birthday with Meng Zuo Jian. Regarding the matter of spring, let Prison Mengzuo be seated first."

Meng Yi lowered his eyebrows and glanced around.

The eyebrows are slightly raised.

Because there were only two plans in the hall, Qin Luoheng had already taken one of the seats, and the only remaining case was facing Qin Luoheng, which made Meng Yi dare not offend.

see.

Qin Luoheng said indifferently:
"Don't be so surprised by Supervisor Meng Zuo."

"This time it's a private banquet, there is no extra Zhuang Zhou, and the face-to-face conversation will show more sincerity."

"Furthermore."

"I'm also a little presumptuous."

"Let the food made by the imperial chef in the palace be my favorite food, but most of them are stir-fried food, and I don't know the chopsticks that Supervisor Mengzuo doesn't use, otherwise I will ask the eunuch to change a pair of tableware for Supervisor Mengzuo. "

Meng Yi arched his hands and said:
"Fortunately, ten sons are the chefs. The officials have recently learned how to use chopsticks."

"The kindness of the ten sons, the officials are grateful."

Meng Yi saluted Qin Luoheng respectfully, and then sat down at the desk.

Qin Luoheng smiled and said:
"Meng Yi, you don't have to be so restrained."

"Just eat normally."

Done.

Qin Luoheng didn't speak again, but picked up the bowl and chopsticks, and ate on his own.

Meng Yi frowned slightly.

He looked at Qin Luoheng suspiciously.

Finally, he also picked up the bowl and chopsticks, and began to eat cautiously.

After eating half full, Qin Luoheng picked up the spoon and poured himself a bowl of hot soup. While drinking, he asked, "Meng Zuojian, what do you think of this birthday?"

heard.

Meng Yi immediately put down the bowl and chopsticks.

Get up and say:
"The subordinates believe that we should go to Shouchun as soon as possible to find out the truth, and then the three clans of Qu, Zhao, and Jing, as well as the officials of Chu who committed crimes and deceived their superiors and subordinates, should all be brought to justice, so as to set the record straight and serve as an example to others. .”

Meng Yi looked upright.

Qin Luoheng blew on the hot air, as if he didn't agree with the words.

Indifferently said: "Meng Zuojian, I don't know much about Chu, but as far as I know, there are many old and new nobles in Chu, not to mention the Xiong clan, the official family, in addition to Qu, Zhao, and Jing, there are also Mi, Xiang, etc. The Qu, Zhao, and Jing clans have not returned to Shouchun for a long time, perhaps because they lived in Chu for a long time in the past, it was easy to make peace with local officials, but "

"With the spirit of these three clans, I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince the public."

"With Qu Yuan's great talent, it is still difficult to unite the nobles of the Chu land. How can the three clans be able to call the wind and rain in the Chu land after the three clans competed for decline?"

Meng Yi frowned.

Ning Sheng said:
"My son's words are wrong."

"The Qu, Zhao, and Jing clans have indeed declined."

"However, the three clans are from the same line as the Xiong clan with the Mi surname, and they all came from the Duke clan of the Chu State. In the early Zhou Dynasty, the Qu clan, the Ruo Ao clan, and the Luo clan were already the three major surnames of the kings in Chu. Later, if the Ao clan and the Luo clan declined, the other two clans, the Jing clan and the Zhao clan, rose, and then these three clans have always been at the top of the Chu state. Compared with other clans, the Qu clan has been enduring for a long time."

"But no matter if it's the Ruoao family and the Luo family, or the Qu family, the Jing family, and the Zhao family, they are all from the Chu family."

"Chu has established the country for hundreds of years, and has ruled Chu for hundreds of years. It can be said that it is deeply rooted in Chu. Therefore, after the demise of Chu, the three major clans will be dissatisfied with the Great Qin. Within reason."

"They are originally from the Chu family. If they are against Qin, they may be the most powerful with their appeal in Chu."

"The officials don't think it's strange."

Qin Luoheng nodded, then shook his head again.

Said:

"That said."

"However, in Qu Yuan's "Nine Chapters Xi Chan", it is written: "Suddenly forget the humbleness of the body."

"I am afraid that the Qu family had already declined when Qu Yuan was in Qu Yuan. Downhill, how can it have such appeal in Chudi?"

"In my opinion."

"It's someone's calculation."

"The Qu, Zhao, and Jing clans are old clans."

"They used to have a deep influence in Chu, but their influence is likely to decline sharply in recent years, and most of them only radiate in the Shouchun area. The upstarts in Chu may have long been dissatisfied with these three clans. After all, Shouchun is the capital of the king of Chu. The place where the land is the most fertile, and now the land annexation in Chu is extremely serious, and the three major clans are currently Huaibi, without knowing it."

heard.

Meng Yi's expression changed slightly.

He said in a concentrated voice:

"My lord, do you think someone wants to borrow a knife to kill someone?"

"With the help of the imperial court, can you understand the three old clans in Chudi?"

"But after the unification of the world, the remnants of the six kingdoms can only linger on their last days, and are busy with internal strife and private fighting. Isn't this detrimental to their own strength?"

Qin Luoheng shook his head and said:

"Do not."

"It's not self-defeating."

"It's integrating forces."

"Since ancient times, the land of Chu has been disorganized and vain, and its forces have been difficult to integrate. Apart from the mediocrity and incompetence of Chu's officials, the old and new clans of Chu are intertwined with each other, so that they cannot form a joint force. The current situation in Great Qin is calm. If it continues, the remaining evils of the six kingdoms , There will be no chance of turning over, so they began to put all their eggs in one basket."

"Eliminate dissidents, and then integrate forces!"

"The anti-Qin remnants of the Chu land are still very strong."

Meng Yi's expression was slightly gloomy.

He opened the mouth and said, "What does the young master want to do?"

Qin Luoheng's eyes slightly closed.

He put down the bowls and chopsticks, and took out a chessboard from under the case.

The black and white above have already settled down.

Qin Luoheng held the black, and said with a smile: "I'm not good at Go, and I've made up for it in recent days. I wonder if Supervisor Meng Zuo would like to play a game or two with me?"

Meng Yi stretched out his hand to take Bai Zi.

Said:

"Do you dare not obey?"

immediately.

Meng Yi carefully watched the chess game.

Now it is Bai Xian, but now the white chess is in trouble, part of the white chess has only one eye, and the black flag has a great advantage. Under the hedging, it can even directly slaughter the white dragon.

Qin Luoheng said lightly:

"The current Qin Chu is just like a chess board."

"Although Daqin has a lot of power, it has not yet gained stability. It may be attacked by the opponent at any time, and it will affect the whole body. As long as one mistake is made, it is easy to be slaughtered by the dragon, and then the whole game will be lost."

"The black chess in the corner right now is like the upstart of Chu country wandering outside."

"If we only focus on the black flag on the board, even if we can get a second eye, it may be difficult to prevent the dragon from being slaughtered. Therefore, we must drag the black chess piece on this corner into the water. Only in this way can we make a living."

Done.

Qin Luoheng began to settle.

Then he settled down, and he said bluntly:
"The incident happened this time because of Yushi Yintong."

"Yintong used to be the prefect of Kuaiji County. Kuaiji County used to be the hometown of Wu and Yue. It was annexed by Chu State. It can be regarded as Chu Land. I once had a friend who came from Wu County. He once told me that there are people in Kuaiji County. Although I don't know if Yin Tong and the Xiang family have intersected, but there is a Xiang family in the county, but Yin Tong doesn't notice, at least it is indeed dereliction of duty."

heard.

Meng Yi's heart trembled.

He took a deep look at Qin Luoheng.

I already know it in my heart.

The matter in Chudi this time may not be that simple.

If what the ten sons said is true, Yin Tong may have colluded with the Xiang family, and Yin Tong's proposal to eliminate the three major clans may be clearing obstacles for the Xiang family.

Meng Yi said: "My lord, do you think Yin Tong should be checked first?"

Qin Luoheng shook his head.

Contemptuously said: "Yin Tong is now like this Luozi, destined to be eaten. His existence is not important after Luozi, because his role has been achieved."

"And what we have to do now is to continue to use it."

"after all."

"This is a white piece!"

Meng Yi was puzzled.

Puzzled:
"Yin Tong colluded with the remnants of the Chu land, how can he be regarded as Baizi?"

Qin Luoheng smiled.

In a cold voice:
"It depends on the means of the chess player."

"Yin Tong may have an eye of Chu Di, but since we know about this eye, we can do something around this eye, so that the white pieces can contribute to the white pieces before they are captured."

Meng Yi said: "What do you want to do, young master?"

Qin Luoheng said:

"Wait!"

"Wait?" Meng Yi frowned.

Qin Luoheng nodded.

Said: "There are two ways to move on the current chess board, one is to go straight, but once it is blocked, it will not help the follow-up eye, but it will enrich black's eyes. Chess is beneficial, but for White, it is absolutely unacceptable."

"So we can only do it first, to test the hand of black chess."

Meng Yi looked at the board.

He opened his mouth and said:

"My lord thinks you can't act too hastily?"

"As a test."

"And if you want to test, you should release some news."

Speaking of which.

Meng Yi understood immediately.

Qin Luoheng didn't want to go to Shouchun so early.

Instead, they are waiting for Yin Tong to pass the news to the Xiang family to test Xiang's actions. If the Xiang family chooses to sit on the sidelines and completely abandon the Qu, Zhao, and Jing clans, and wait until the Qu, Zhao, and Jing clans know that the court intends to deal with it. When the three clans fight, they will definitely make a lot of radical moves, and even directly provoke civil strife in Chu. At that time, Daqin might even win without a fight.

Putting it on the board, it means that Xiang can't block it, otherwise some black flags will die.

If the Xiang clan and other clans get involved, it will directly lead to a confrontational situation.

But in this case, there will be many more variables.

Meng Yi condensed and said:
"Young master, do you want to wipe out all the nobles in Chu?"

Qin Luoheng smiled.

Said:

"This is the unfinished battle between Qin and Chu."

"When Qin destroyed Chu, it was true that it won, but Chu did not completely surrender. Otherwise, when Chu Nangong was captured, he would not openly say that "although Chu has three households, Qin must be destroyed." The nobles of Chu have always It's because they are unwilling, they have been thinking about making a comeback, even thinking about turning defeat into victory."

"Which battle did not defeat the people of Chu?"

"You have been in the court for a long time, and you should have heard a lot of things. Chu has always been the most lewd, the worst law and order, and the dead are thieves, and there are not many people who are dead. If you want Chu to fully integrate into the Great Qin, not only from To subdue the military subjects, they need to be defeated on the psychological level, so that they can deeply realize that Chu State has never been the opponent of Great Qin from the beginning to the end."

"It didn't work in the past, and it doesn't work now!"

"This is a war."

"A war without smoke."

"For this battle, Daqin can only win, not lose."

"Just like the white pieces on this chessboard, Daqin is not stable at the moment, just like a big dragon. If he is attacked, if he is a little careless, the big dragon may be slaughtered, and the whole game will be lost."

"Now I want to use Chu as the chessboard."

"I hold the white pieces, and the nobles of the Chu family are the black pieces. Let's play a game of chess."

"I also want to see if my three-legged cat's chess skills can win a game."

"And then."

"Let Chu Di become a lamb to be slaughtered!"

Qin Luoheng gave birth to another son.

Meng Yi frowned. He looked at the chess board, then at Qin Luoheng, and said, "My lord is indeed very courageous, but the nobles of Chu are not black pieces on the chessboard after all. If they hear the news, they will run away directly. If you hesitate, isn't it a waste of time, and isn't it letting the tiger go back to the mountain?"

Done.

Meng Yi dropped a son.

Qin Luoheng glanced at it, and said contemptuously: "Life is like chess, and you have no regrets when you make a move."

"They were the first to finish this game. Since they have lost the game, they must finish the game. If they don't play, they will admit defeat."

"They won't admit defeat."

"and"

"They may also want to compete."

"Try it out, how much the Great Qin controls the world, and then prepare for the follow-up rebellion."

Meng Yi shook his head.

Shen said:
"I already know what the young master is thinking."

"It's just that, since the young master is well aware that the Chu land and the Great Qin are separated from each other, once the news is spread, they will definitely pay attention to it. At that time, the local officials and the nobles of the Chu land will collude with each other and protect each other. Don't we think they have nothing to do?"

Qin Luoheng said coldly:

"Do you think there is a way now?"

"Since these people dared to throw out the Qu, Zhao, and Jing clans, they might have already figured out a way to escape. Now that we have gone there, we can find only the Qu, Zhao, and Jing clans, and some officials who have been abandoned. Don’t think about finding anything else.”

"Since they dare to plot against the imperial court and let the imperial court be the blade holder, I will sharpen the blade even more. I would like to see if these people can hold the hilt!"

"Daqin's sharp blade can and will only be held in his own hands, and will never become a blade in the hands of others!"

Qin Luoheng's eyes were extremely indifferent.

cold voice:
"The imperial court has thoroughly investigated the matter of the land, and let the outside world spread it."

"In the past, Daqin tried to appease the world. This time, I will be a person who is afraid that the world will not be chaotic. I also want to see if the people in Chudi have the courage to touch Daqin's sharp blade in full view. I also want to see how many people in Chudi dare to seek death!"

Done.

Qin Luoheng walked away with a flick of his sleeves.

While walking, another piece fell on the chess board at some point.

Seeing this, Meng Yi's face changed again and again, and finally looked at Qin Luoheng with a complicated expression.

Shen Sheng said: "No."

　The game record is derived from "Sun Bin Fakes Death" in "Xuanxuan Chess Classic", which fits the plot of this chapter quite well, but the writing is not good, ahem.
