All officials in the DPRK are worried about the future of Chu.
Chu Zhuangwang ignores government affairs. He either goes out to hunt and play in the palace every day, or drinks with concubines in the harem for fun, and no one is allowed to give advice. He ordered the whole country: "Whoever dares to give an idea will be sentenced to death!"
The official position of Chu in charge of military and political affairs is Uji Ma. At that time, there was a man who was an official in Uchijima. Seeing that the hegemony of the world powers was very unfavorable to Chu, he wanted to persuade Chu Zhuangwang to give up his absurd life and strive to make Chu a vassal overlord after Qi Huangong and Jin Wengong. But he didn't dare to violate Chu Zhuangwang's ban and directly remonstrate; He racked his brains, but didn't come up with a way to wake Chu Zhuangwang.
One day, he saw Chu Zhuangwang and his concubines playing a guessing game, and Chu Zhuangwang had a good time. He had a brainwave and decided to hint at Chu Zhuangwang with riddles in the joy of the game.
The next day in court, Chu Zhuangwang remained silent, and Yuji Island accompanied him. Just as King Zhuang was about to announce his retirement from the DPRK, he gave Chu Zhuangwang a riddle: "I saw a bird when I was in the south. It landed on a mound in the south. For three years, it didn't spread its wings, didn't fly, didn't sing and was silent. What's its name? "
Chu Zhuangwang felt that ministers urgently needed Qiang Bing, a rich country, and it was time to rectify the platform and revive Regal. Half a month later, Chu Zhuangwang went to court, personally handled government affairs, and hired six talented scholars to participate in government affairs, which managed Chu well.
The domestic political situation improved, so he sent troops to crusade against Qi and defeated Qi in Xuzhou. He also sent troops to crusade against the State of Jin, and fought with the Jin army in He Yong, and the Chu army won.
Finally, a meeting of vassal states was held in Song State, so Chu replaced Qi State and Jin State and became the overlord of the vassal states in the world.
