In the courtyard of the Xiang family, after getting up in the morning, Xiang Feng stayed in the small courtyard where Xiang Qu lived, but he didn't see Xiang Qu come out of it until the third pole in the morning. Because Xiang Feng was the envoy sent by the head of the Xiang family this time, whether he could be recalled to the master family and no longer raise flowers and grass in this ravine was a matter of Xiang Qu's words, so Xiang Qu didn't come out, and he didn't dare to go in and ask.

In fact, Xiang Feng still has a layer of concern, that is, the identity of that woman. Of course, he knew that this woman was the wife of Meng Tian he had seen, and the wife of the commander of the Meng family army of Qin State, so as long as Xiang Qu, a womanizer, moved this woman's body, then he would have to tie himself together, otherwise if Meng Tian, the major general of Qin State, came over with men and horses, he could also put all the responsibility on Xiang Qu's body, so that he would kill two birds with one stone.

Just when Xiang Feng was thinking about the gains and losses in front of the courtyard, Xiang Qu took Xiang Yu and walked over from outside the courtyard. Seeing Xiang Feng here, Xiang Yu stepped forward and respectfully shouted Feng Bo, interrupting Xiang Feng's thoughts.

Xiang Feng turned around and saw Xiang Qu, Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu were all looking at him, and said with a dry smile: "How did the two brothers come in from the outside, I thought you didn't wake up?"

Xiang Liang said: "Yu'er got up early in the morning, and my eldest brother and I took him out for a boxing trip. Why is Brother Xiang Feng looking for something for us?"

Xiang Feng looked at Xiang Qu's eyes that seemed to be smiling at him, and said, "It's nothing, I just came over and called you for breakfast." By the way, the food is cold, let's go over. ”

Xiang Qu said to Xiang Liang: "You take Yu'er over first, I have something to say to Xiang Feng." ”

Xiang Liang took Xiang Yu away, leaving Xiang Qu and Xiang Feng behind. Xiang Qu watched Xiang Liang walk away, and said sharply to Xiang Feng, "Do you know how stupid you are?"

Xiang Feng sighed in his heart, could it be that Xiang Qu knew the identity of that woman?

Xiang Feng pretended not to know, and asked: "What did my brother say, how could I do something stupid?

"Hmph. Xiang Qu saw Xiang Feng talking about Zi Yanran, and his face was gloomy. "Do you know who that woman is? You are harming me and the entire Xiang family, and maybe the entire Chu Kingdom will sacrifice many people because of you. ”

Xiang Feng pretended to be confused and said, "I don't know what you're talking about. If there's something wrong with me, brother, you just have to say it, why do you do such a thing that you don't admit to it?"

"What did you say?" Xiang Qu was really angry, you Xiang Feng wanted to kill me, but if you wanted to pull me on my back, it would never be possible. "That woman is the woman of Meng Tian, the most famous major general of the Meng family army in the Qin State today, my Chu State was originally unwilling to have any disputes with the Qin State, and now that you have arrested Meng Tian's woman, how can he give up, maybe at this time Meng Tian has already taken the Qin army to the way here again. ”

Xiang Feng sneered, and he said to Xiang Qu, "These are what the woman said?"

"Otherwise, who do you think it is? and you don't know her, how can you know her identity?"

Xiang Feng patted Xiang Qu on the shoulder, and then said: "You believe what she said by a strange woman, and you don't believe what I say as your brother, do you have a problem with your brain?"

Xiang Qu knocked Xiang Feng's hand off and said coldly: "If this woman has nothing to do with Meng Tian, then I have to ask what the identity of this woman is, and you still have to tie her hands and feet, are you afraid that she will escape? If this woman is really a woman from an ordinary family, then how did she know about the Qin State Meng's army?"

"This ......" Xiang Feng couldn't answer Xiang Qu's question.

Xiang Qu looked at Xiang Feng, who had nothing to say, and his face softened a little, "I know that you have some prejudices against my father for sending you to this remote mountainous area to be in charge of poppies, but you have to know how important poppies are to our Xiang family and even the entire Qin country, so this time I personally came to be this envoy just to bring you home, but you are doing such a thing now, which makes it a little difficult for me to do." ”

Xiang Feng didn't expect Xiang Feng to come this time to bring him home, this is good, he is self-defeating now.

Xiang Feng grabbed Xiang Qu's arm and said, "Then what should I do now?"

As soon as Xiang Feng's words were finished, Huang Wouji walked over. After seeing Xiang Feng and Xiang Qu, Huang Wuji knelt on the ground and said: "The two masters of Qiqi, there are people who come to report, and there are people who quietly cross the river and attack Zhuangzi. "Bora

"Hehe, it looks like they've come to the door. Xiang Qu looked at Xiang Feng and said. "In that case, let's get ready to welcome our guests. ”

Xiang Feng said to Huang Wouji: "Arrange it, the whole village is on guard, and prepare to deal with the enemy." ”

After Huang Wou-Ki left, Xiang Qu said: "Let's go, if they are willing to settle things, then we can just accept it when we see it, and give both sides a step down." And you pay attention to me, don't have more rights and wrongs, otherwise I won't be able to save you. ”

"Yes. Xiang Feng bowed his head and replied.

After arranging everything in the inn, Meng Tian and Meng Li left the inn with everyone. When they arrived at the dock, because Huang Wuji was not there, Meng Tian asked everyone to disperse, and then crossed the river in groups of two or three, so as not to cross the river too much and let the people of the Xiang family notice.

After crossing the river, Meng Tian and Meng Li led a team of people to march towards Zhuangzi from the main road, and the other team entered the mountains as a secret force to search for Zi Yanran's traces in the courtyard of the Xiang family.

Xue Bin followed behind Meng Tian, looking at the young general in front of him, Xue Bin asked, "Young General, why don't we wait until it gets dark before we act? Isn't it more conducive to us to find the whereabouts of the young lady when it's dark?"

Meng Tian shook his head slightly, "Originally, I also planned to act at night. It's just that the three ships yesterday should be the Xiang family's people, so our current strength is definitely not the opponent of the Xiang family, and besides, this is the Chu State, and now the two countries of Qin and Chu are still in peacetime, if we start killing in the territory of the Chu State, then it must have created an excuse for the Chu State to unite the other five countries to attack our Qin State, so we have to be careful, the previously agreed countermeasures are no longer feasible. ”

Meng Tian paused for a moment and continued: "Besides, if I come to the door to beg for people in an open and honest manner, then the Xiang family of the Chu State will give me a step down on each side of the alliance between Qin and Chu, and return Yanran to me, then I can not pursue their faults." Of course, if they don't, then I'm not easy to mess with, it's a big deal to fight with them. ”

Xue Bin smiled, he rubbed the bronze long sword in his hand and said, "Since I received this sword, I haven't seen blood, but I'm still looking forward to today's battle." ”

Meng Tian sneered in his heart after hearing Xue Bin's words: If the people of the Xiang family don't know what to do, he is really not afraid of a big battle with them, so that these Chu people can once again see the power of the Qin people. It has been decades since the last time the Qin people killed the Chu people, and the Qin State Wu Anjun broke more than ten cities in the Chu State in vain, and drowned tens of thousands of Chu people in the first battle of the flooded Yingdu, which made the Chu people frightened and stopped crying.

After a while, Meng Tian led people along the mountain road to the front of Xiang's Zhuangzi. Looking at the Xiang family Zhuangzi who was located in the sea of poppies, Meng Tian's eyes were complicated, no matter what, he must rescue Zi Yanran today.

"Let's go, let's go into the village. Meng Tian walked towards Zhuangzi with his head.

It was almost noon, and the Chu people who were working in the poppy fields had already returned to their own houses, and smoke was already rising in many parts of the manor.

"Young General, are we going to ask for someone to go so openly?" Xue Bin asked tentatively behind Meng Tian.

"Otherwise, go, go up and call the door. ”

Xue Bin got off his horse and strode forward to knock on the door, and then the door opened from the inside, and the servants of the Xiang family rushed out of the door with weapons in hand, and then stood in two teams on both sides of the road.

Then Huang Wou-Ki also came out of the door, and when he saw Meng Tian, his face changed slightly, and then he walked down the steps of the door, clasped his fists at Meng Tian and said, "I don't know if you are here, and you will miss the welcome, and I hope that you will forgive your sins." ”

Although Meng Tian already knew Wong Wou-ki's true identity, he should have pretended to be surprised and said, "Hey, aren't you the boatman? Why didn't you row a boat to block people and cross the river and change your career to take care of people's homes?"

Wong Wou-Ki smiled, both of them knew each other's bottom carefully, so you pretend to be me. The guest laughed, the villain is just a nobody, I will do what the host tells the villain, where can there be a distinguished guest so casually change identity? ”

The words were already so clear, Meng Tian understood that it was not much fun to pretend any longer, and he said to Huang Wouji: "Since you know everything, then shouldn't you invite your master to come out? I'm afraid you're not qualified to receive me." ”
