There is also one of the most important problems, that is, if Xiang Zhaoheng is always wary of everyone in his heart, then his subordinates will basically be secretly careful of him, the lord, after all, people are heart-to-heart.

But in this way, it is difficult for me to judge whether there is anyone around Xiang Zhaoheng who is secretly in contact with the Sacred Heart Sect, at least this possibility will be very high. Therefore, after thinking about it again, I still didn't tell Xiang Zhaoheng about my intention to let Hua Ruoqiu poison the Wu Clan army.

As for helping Xiang Zhaoheng borrow materials, I also put it on hold for the first time, because if he borrowed money from the Hu family in the name of Chu State, Xiang Zhaoheng's current identity is not justified. And the identity of the future monarch of Xiang Zhaoheng Chu is also unrealistic, and no one can be sure of the current situation and what will happen in the future.

I put forward this idea in front of everyone at the time, in fact, I wanted to see what kind of reaction Xiang Zhaoheng would have, and by the way, to give them relief and strengthen their confidence that they would be able to repel the Wu army.

And when I offered to help Xiang Zhaoheng borrow supplies, his reaction was indeed obviously a little excited. Although he still maintained a very restrained state at that time, if even a person like him could directly say that it was acceptable to pay a larger price, then in order to borrow enough materials, Xiang Zhaoheng would probably agree to even repay the land repayment.

From this point of view, Xiang Zhaoheng may not actually love the people like a son as in folklore. With a series of previous decisions, it may be that he just made the most appropriate decision rationally in the face of the current situation. Of course, it is also possible that King Zheng had a certain influence in it.

Similarly, if the Hu family is allowed to lend too much material to Xiang Zhaoheng, in the future, after he completely controls the Chu State, I am also worried that Xiang Zhaoheng will intentionally violate the agreement at that time. Tearing up the Entente is a common thing among countries, which is completely different from the sect that occupies the position of the rivers and lakes by prestige.

Therefore, even if I decide to help Xiang Zhaoheng borrow materials after a while, I will borrow money from Xiang Zhaoheng through Dayu Kingdom or Youluomen. The Hu family, who has been in business for generations, is still too weak for an empire.

Ten days after arriving in Jingzhou City, the four of us, accompanied by Xiang Zhaoheng, the crown prince of Chu, arrived at the front line of Jinling Pass. This time, we were greeted not only by Xiang Zhaoheng's general Ji Xiong, but also by the Naxi patriarch Lan Yueji.

Xiang Zhaoheng introduced me and said: "This is my general Ji Xiong, our army has been able to resist the Wu clan in Jinling Pass for many years, all thanks to General Ji and his soldiers to fight bravely. ”

Ji Xiong, who was wearing armor and had a beard on his face, arched his hand to me and said in a rough voice: "I finally met the famous tour chief, you yourself are thinner than I thought." ”

I smiled and said, "After all, Poor Dao is just a Taoist priest, and his body is naturally not as strong as that of a soldier in the army." ”

"Then I don't know what realm the Daoist Commander is now?" Ji Xiong asked.

'Is this Ji Xiong usually a little flustered, or is he deliberately finding fault with me here?' How can you just ask the other party what realm he is?' I looked at Ji Xiong and said, "In the middle of the solid realm, I don't know what advice General Ji has?"

Ji Xiong said with a smile: "I don't dare to give advice, I am now in the early stage of the solid realm, and I don't know how much strength will be worse in a small realm." ”

"I barely broke through the late stage of the Solid Realm half a year ago, if General Ji is interested, how about I discuss this issue with General Ji?" Lan Yueji on the side suddenly said at this time.

Ji Xiong and Xiang Zhaoheng didn't expect Lan Yueji to speak at this time, both of them were slightly stunned, Ji Xiong smiled and said to Lan Yueji: "Hahaha, today is to welcome the arrival of the Dao Chief, how can you use force casually." I just thought about it and said it casually. Patriarch Lan must not take it seriously. ”

Don't look at Lan Yueji, as the patriarch of the Sina clan, she has just broken through the late stage of the solid realm, but Gu poison doesn't have so many realm restrictions. Therefore, Blue Moon Ji's actual combat power can't be measured by the realm alone.

Why is Xiang Zhaoheng trying to find trouble with me for no reason? Is it Xiang Zhaoheng who is testing me? Why didn't he show anything when he was in Jingzhou City before? Could it be that Xiang Zhaoheng thinks that my reputation is too big, and he is afraid that I will take the lead in his station, so he wants to deter me first? However, is it a bit too hasty to use an ordinary solid realm early stage to deter me? Does he not know what kind of achievements I have achieved over the years?

Just when I was thinking about the purpose of Ji Xiong's play, Lan Yueji took a step forward and said to me: "Long Dao, I haven't seen you for many years, everything is fine." ”

I nodded and said, "Yes, four or five years have passed in a blink of an eye, right? ”

Blue Moon Ji Wan'er smiled: "I've never heard of the tour leader saying flattering words, it seems that the tour leader has changed a lot over the years." ”

Xiang Zhaoheng opened his mouth and asked, "Are the two old acquaintances?"

I smiled and said to Xiang Zhaoheng: "When I went to the 100,000 mountains to look for the ruins of the Demon Kingdom, I had the honor to meet the Lan Patriarch. ”

Lan Yueji said: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, the truth is far more than that, the Dao Master once stopped a dispute between our clan and saved countless warriors of my clan from vain death. The Wandering Captain is kind to our people. ”

"Patriarch Lan, you're serious. Poor Dao is just doing a little bit of effort. I laughed.

Xiang Zhaoheng's expression changed slightly when he heard this, and then he smiled: "Since this is the case, then everyone should hurry inside." The banquet has been set up, and everyone must have a good gathering today. ”。。。

At the banquet that night, I ate neither salty nor light, and I felt that as an ally against the Wu Clan, Xiang Zhaoheng, the prince of Chu State, and Lan Yueji, the patriarch of the Sina clan, were not as close as I imagined. But there doesn't seem to be any substantive contradiction between them, it just makes people feel that their relationship is a little strange.

After the banquet was over, I went to their garrison with Blue Moon Ji on the pretext that I wanted to see the area in charge of the 300,000 army composed of 100,000 tribes of the Great Mountain. If I continue to stay in the garrison of the prince's army, if that Ji Xiong comes to me again, I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself and beat that Ji Xiong.

If I had a direct conflict with Xiang Zhaoheng as soon as I arrived at the front line of Jinling Pass, it would be a bit too much. Besides, I was ordered to come to support this time, and Master Xuanzhen is still watching me at any time in Qingling Mountain. If I really had a conflict with Xiang Zhaoheng, would the old man think that I did it on purpose, so as to avoid meeting Qu Zhaolin on the battlefield?
