emy ace pilots. Inform Berman on the front lines, fight and try to collect the stats of this card for me."..............It's true that Xiao Huo was getting a bit impatient."Zhang Wen, Lao Zhang!!! Don...If it were a Qin person

King Zhou was pondering the feasibility of using Qin's methods to subdue Chu.

From a tiny nation to dominating the Western Rong in just fifty years, and now we have such extraordinary people before us.

In the future, it could become a major problem. If we can't control him, wouldn't it be better to let Qin and Chu fight each other first and take advantage of the situation

Such outlanders are generally difficult to entice with ordinary possessions. All in all, let's just try.

Two gentlemen from Qin, you have come to relieve the worries of Luoyang this time, and thus you deserve a reward.

You have obtained a secret realm reward. You can draw one random card from the "Weekly" pool, which does not exceed gold quality, or refuse the reward, with unknown consequences.

"Zhao Cheng" and "Zhao Fengbao" looked at each other.

"Your Majesty, we have no interest in these worldly possessions."

King Zhou remained composed on the surface, but he had already devised a plan in his heart.

"I apologize for my intrusion. This common object would not be of interest to you esteemed ladies. Attendant, display the treasures from the inner sanctum!"

You have obtained a secret realm reward. You can choose to draw one random card from the [Weekly] gacha pool, with rarity not exceeding Gold 4-star, or decline the reward, with unknown consequences.

The two remained unmoved, drawing this card, which barely compensated for Chu San's three rounds of consumption. Wasn't that a loss

Moreover, there is a deeper meaning behind this visit.

This week, the emperor has been neglecting his duties and spending his time frivolously. He is busy with things like collecting wind chimes and repairing palaces, causing widespread discontent among the people.

King Wu would have been so angry that he'd climb out of his grave to appear here himself.

When the world is in chaos, and capable individuals rise to prominence, it's no surprise that feudal lords vie for supremacy. It seems as though Zhou Dynasty is nearing its end, and this spectacular spectacle cannot be ignored!

Do not be swayed by petty gains.

When the Son of Heaven saw this, he understood most of it in his heart.

These two individuals are probably not easily pacified, and they already have a grudge against the people of Chu. It would be better to subtly guide them in that direction.

If Qin and Chu go to war, the Zhou dynasty will benefit greatly from mediating between them!

"Truly righteous men! Come, I shall offer you both another cup." King Zhou raised his wine cup and drank it in one gulp: "Alas, there are few righteous men like yourselves left in the world. Think of Chu Zhuang..."

You are about to enter the card plot event [King Chu's Inquiry]!

Lu Cheng's heart skipped a beat. Here he comes.

"Report, Your Majesty, the emissary of King Zhuang of Chu requests an audience!"

"I am not seeing you, I am here."

"The people of Chu have made great contributions in battling against the Rong, but not only have they not received proper treatment, this time they are even being obstructed. I wonder why" A deep voice suddenly came from outside the palace, sounding full of vigor.

This week, the emperor was at a loss for what to do. He could only order his servants to add a seat and invite the envoys into the hall.

During the Spring and Autumn period, all feudal lords were called "gong," while "wang" was a title exclusive to the Zhou king.

Only the State of Chu, shortly after entering the Spring and Autumn period, began to claim kingship for itself.

King Chu outwardly recognized the Zhou dynasty as the sovereign and himself as a king. This shows that at least he no longer considered the Zhou ruler to be the lord of all under heaven. However, the Zhou dynasty was forced by circumstances to adopt appeasement and conciliatory strategies.

Lu Cheng only saw a middle-aged man, wearing official robes and walking with the bearing of a dragon, enter the banquet.

King Chu of Zhuang's minister scanned the people present.

"Today's great celebration, but this victory was earned by my Chu people. Why wasn't I, the King, invited to the banquet" The envoy was not at all polite.

In this era, anyone who dares to be an envoy is a fearless person.

Zhou Tianzi didn't know how to answer, stammering and opening his mouth.

This is because this is a celebratory feast for Qin Gong's victory over the Western Rong!

Lu Cheng frowned, he could hear the meaning behind those words, but he didn't erupt in anger for now.

"Good, good! A Qin who breaks the Western Rong! Today, I shall demand an explanation on behalf of my King!" The envoy said as he sat down, "Chu's army fought bravely and defeated the Shanrong. The Son of Heaven and the feudal lords should have treated each other with courtesy. The Qin people blocked us at the Luo River. My king does not wish to fight in the same room, so he temporarily ceased hostilities. But if the Son of Heaven does not give an explanation, it will be difficult to appease the grievances of the people of Chu. If matters are left unchecked, the consequences will be unimaginable!"

Chu's words carry a heavy threat!

"Alas," Lu Cheng rose and said, "The envoy of Chu is mistaken. While the Chu army has achieved merit, it has also caused unrest among the people of Luoyang. The two of us only wished to dissuade King Chu and did not intend to start a war."

"Humph!"

The scene was thick with the smell of gunpowder, and Emperor Zhou hastily got up.

"Alas, alas, alas! The Chu people have done well. Come here, reward the Chu!"

"I thank the Son of Heaven, and I am relieved. My king does not seek rewards." The envoy waved his hand.

"What does King Chu want" the Zhou天子 asked.

The emissary looked up and spat out a sentence.

"I love bronze objects, especially cauldrons. I want to cast nine replicas but don't know the size and weight of Zhou Dynasty cauldrons. Could you tell me"

As soon as these words were uttered, all four people were astonished!

What is the size and weight of Zhou Ding

Is that even a question

Although King Chu had already declared himself king, he still acknowledged the Son of Heaven outwardly. And if the Nine Tripod Cauldrons were truly moved to Chu, it would be a bad thing!

Moreover, what this King Chu means by "imitation" is unclear.

The crowd buzzed with hushed whispers and frantic discussions, yet for a moment, no one dared to speak.

Lu Cheng and Zhao Feng didn't speak either. The plot has been pushed to this point, so let's just see what the cauldron is all about.

When the Son of Heaven heard this, he wanted to be angry, but after thinking about Chu's power, he could only swallow his anger in secret.

This Chu King is truly hateful to the extreme!

What should I do now

At this moment, one person suddenly stood up from the table and respectfully bowed to the emperor.

"I have something to say!"

The Son of Heaven looked at this.

Doctor Wangsun Man, he is quite a capable person.

"Speaking."

The prince surveyed the crowd around him, then slowly ascended the steps and whispered in the ear of Emperor Zhou.

"Your Majesty, this King of Chu is not merely vying for the position of paramount ruler. He seeks to shift the national fortune to Chu, harboring ill intentions. Openly confronting him would be unwise at this juncture. However, Your Majesty, I have a plan regarding this matter of the tripod."

The emperor himself knows that this is not a question to be answered casually. What does this royal physician have up his sleeve

Then, in a hushed tone, he asked: "What's the plan"

"The weight of this tripod is immense. If King Chuang of Chu truly wanted to know its weight, why not let him try it himself" Wang Sun Man smiled slightly. "The Nine Tripods belong to the entire world and are too heavy for ordinary people to bear. If Chu Wang knows he can't lift it and retreats, his face will be lost. But if he really tries to force it, he will surely die! His death will be his own doing, and we have nothing to do with it!"

The Son of Heaven's eyes lit up.

Great idea!

This is quite clever.

The Nine Cauldrons are artifacts of the human way, forged in ancient times.

It is rumored that Yu received the gold of the Nine Tribes and cast it into nine cauldrons.

This is not something ordinary people can lift. Even the Zhou emperor, who could use all his strength, couldn't lift it himself because he was the emperor.

Moreover, the emperor was a pleasure-seeker. He once ordered numerous palace attendants and scholars to lift one of the nine tripods for his amusement, but no one could succeed!

...because the dragon's qi inundated people, many died.

Of course, this envoy represents the King of Chu. Then, wouldn't it be best for the King of Chu himself to weigh the tripod and determine its weight Would he not lift it

If King Chu knew when to retreat, then the whole world would know that King Chu was a failure.

If he were to raise it, then humph.

When King Chu Zhuang died, Chu fell into chaos. It was a perfect opportunity to instigate Qin and Qi to attack Chu!

That's it!

"Tell King Chu that I agree to the matter of measuring the ding. However, this is a serious matter and the nine ding are not something ordinary people can touch. He must come in person to measure them!"

In history, when the King of Chu marched against the Rong people to the River Luo, Duke Wang Sun Man, acting on the emperor's command, worked hard to support the army. The King of Chu had ambitions for world domination and asked him: "How heavy is this cauldron"

Wangsun Man did not directly answer.

There is a poem saying:

Nine Mu's golden molten form, as if retreating into obscurity. The chaotic mandate of heaven subsides, and clarity dawns upon the world.

The rise and fall of a nation depend on its virtue, not the grandeur of its vessels. What business does Prince Chu have inquiring about weight (Author: Zhou Dun).ters, and instead have to remain in the Eighty-Two Camps as a man until the war ends."Be careful, don't get it wrong!!" The soldier reminded, "If the yin qi contaminates the right shoulder field, ther...
