Anti-War Game: Starting from Normandy Campaign-Chapter 701 - 338: Wu Zixu’s Boundless Hatred

For the plot of the Warring States period, the Blue Star Players know relatively little.

Mostly they understand from the bamboo slip records in the game storyline.

Although they can roughly organize the plot context of this period in history, their understanding is relatively limited.

Now there is a [movie version] to watch, naturally they look forward to it.

However, just before watching [Jiang Wei], while searching on the forum, even without clicking on the post, many had already learned from the post titles that [Wu Zixu] is also a tragic figure.

And judging by the looks of things, it has had quite an impact on those who have already watched.

Blue Star netizens in the live room are already preparing psychologically.

To see what kind of dramatic impact this time brings.

As Fang Ming clicks, [Wu Zixu] begins to play.

The live room screen lights up.

[Chu State]

Under the sunset, the young Wu Zixu is wielding a wooden sword.

Imitating his father Wu She’s sword movements before him, young Wu Zixu’s eyes are focused, learning exceptionally seriously. As Wu She teaches Wu Zixu, he speaks:

"Mastery of swordplay lies in the unity of mind and spirit, not in fierce moves."

Wu Zixu responds:

"Yes! Father."

Wielding the wooden sword in his hand, he learns meticulously.

In the distance.

Brother Wu Shang comes over, a smile on his face:

"Father, mother has prepared the soup, calling us to come."

Then the three father and son return indoors, drinking soup while they talk.

And Blue Star netizens in the live room also learn through the daily exchanges of the father and sons that Wu Zixu’s father is named Wu She, the Grand Tutor to the prince of Chu State.

Grand Tutor?

That’s quite a title.

Probably he’s among the top in Chu State.

No wonder the scene of practicing swordplay gave a sense of Wu Zixu’s family being extraordinary; it turns out he’s the Grand Tutor of a state’s prince.

Then.

The scenes keep shifting.

Youthful Wu Zixu transitions from a child to a teenager, young man, and middle-aged man.

Blue Star netizens in the live room are somewhat surprised.

This....

Was Wu Zixu a late bloomer?

Because up to now, Wu Zixu is already 36 years old.

Although the scenes shift rapidly, through the flashes of each scene, it’s clear that under his father Wu She and brother’s guidance over the years, Wu Zixu has already become a loyal minister and great general, a figure excelling both in literature and martial arts.

According to their understanding of the ancient people in the [Huaxia] series.

Wu Zixu at this age is already considered quite old.

Could it be that Wu Zixu lived very long?

Blue Star netizens in the live room continue watching.

The camera shifts.

Inside the Chu State palace, King Ping of Chu is sitting across and discussing with his favored minister Fei Wuju.

But this is not a good conversation.

As the favored minister of King Ping of Chu, although Fei Wuju is not welcomed by Wu She and the crown prince Jian due to his flattery, he is deeply loved by King Ping of Chu.

At this time.

Fei Wuju is advising King Ping of Chu:

"My lord."

"That Qin State princess Meng Ying is as beautiful as a fairy, such a beauty can only be enjoyed by you, my lord."

"Why not my lord marry her yourself...."

King Ping of Chu furrows his brow, a trace of hesitation in his eyes, but soon replaced by greed:

"But this Meng Ying is originally the wife of the crown prince. If I take her, wouldn’t that invite criticism?"

Moreover, this marriage was originally arranged for the prince by him, but thinking of Meng Ying’s beauty, King Ping of Chu hesitated again:

"This matter.... still needs further consideration."

Letting such a beauty be enjoyed by the crown prince is indeed too wasteful.

Seeing this, Fei Wuju smiles, knowing he has grasped King Ping of Chu’s thoughts, feeling inwardly pleased.

Just until he returns home, calming down then gradually getting frightened.

No other reason.

King Ping of Chu will eventually grow old, and especially in such a case of forcibly marrying the daughter-in-law, he certainly cannot bear the blame himself. At that time, it must be him who will take the blame.

Then when Crown Prince Jian ascends the throne in the future, where would there be a good outcome for him?

In an instant.

Fei Wuju breaks out in cold sweat.

Just now when flattering King Ping of Chu, he only thought of King Ping but forgot that Crown Prince Jian would be the future king of Chu State, and if he bears a grudge.... no way!

No way!!!

Fei Wuju, with a shudder, paces back and forth in the room, sweating with fear.

Finally, Fei Wuju’s eyes turn sinister, sets his mind, then murmurs to himself:

"No way."

"Crown Prince Jian cannot be left alive, that old rogue Wu She must die too."

"Otherwise...."

Although not stated further, Blue Star netizens in the live room have already guessed.

Gasp—

So is this the beginning of all tragedies?

Whoa?

This Fei Wuju is truly a scumbag.

Advised King Ping of Chu, having him forcibly marry his daughter-in-law, and now due to fear of Crown Prince Jian’s revenge, preparing to eliminate Crown Prince Jian.... this plot.

Wasn’t this segment just seen somewhere?

The Blue Star netizens in the live room inexplicably thought of the [Tianshui Qilin] movie version they just watched.

Inspector Wei Guan, due to participating in framing Deng Ai, had Deng Ai, who was supposed to be innocent after Zhong Hui rebelled, intercepted and killed with the reason being fear of Deng Ai’s future revenge.

Now it seems.

All conspiracies and schemes across eternity have very simple initial intentions.

Only by uprooting thoroughly can one avoid revenge.

In the scene.

After setting his mind, Fei Wuju quickly thought of a reason.

Since King Ping of Chu himself rose to power by a coup, he has a deep desire for control over power. On this side, Fei Wuju uses the pretext that Crown Prince Jian has recently been conspiring with Wu She and others, likely having a rebellious heart, to mislead King Ping of Chu.

And King Ping of Chu’s reaction also confounds Blue Star netizens in the live room.

Not knowing whether he’s too eager to marry Meng Ying or afraid Crown Prince Jian would truly seize the throne, King Ping of Chu actually without even considering directly decided to depose the crown prince.
