There is a lot of water in the south, and the crop is rice from the Yu period.

It is the time of planting early rice, and the farmers of Chudi are all engaged in the field. Although it is busy in the morning and evening, the rain is abundant, and the farmers know that the year is not bad, and although they are tired, their hearts are extraordinarily open.

"Although the north is chaotic, the fields are not as good as the south. It is really God bless Dachu, and he only needs to wait for the grain harvest in the next year, and call the rebellious ministers to kneel and surrender. An old farmer straightened his waist and smiled while planting rice.

"There is no need for the northern land to be affected, if the overlord wants to attack other countries, he can get it with a wave of his hand. No matter how powerful Tian Rong is, he is not the enemy of the overlord. The rest of the princes, except for Wu Rui, who lasted for a while, were all waste. The eldest son echoed with a smile.

The folds on the old farmer's face were piled up, "Although the Yue people are numerous, they are divided, and Wu Rui is not afraid." The overlord did not occupy Xianyang that day, and it was considered a conspiracy, and Qin Di was afraid that the grain would not bear fruit this year, and Chu Di was the best land. Hahaha. ”

The father and son sighed that they were in a blessed land, and they talked and laughed and continued to work together.

Half an hour later, when wiping sweat, the father and son looked up and suddenly saw dozens of Chu cavalry dressed in armor and yellow clothes appear in the sky.

The two thought that it was a soldier patrolling, and they didn't want to get into trouble, so they bowed their heads again to avoid everyone's attention.

Chu Bing did not stay away, seeing the two of them like this, but stepped into the water and went straight to the father and son.

"Raise your head!" shouted for the leader.

The father and son didn't know what to mean, so they had to look up with a forced smile.

The soldier looked at the two of them left and right for a long time, then lowered his head and looked at the portrait in his hand, frowning and shaking his head.

"It's not that person."

The generals were a little discouraged, since Xun Jin made a big fuss in the Chu Palace, seriously injured Zhong Liyi and Lu Chen fled, Xiang Yu sent troops to hunt down Xun Jin's traces. All the way to the west, all the way to the north, everywhere you pass, all carefully checked.

Those who are similar in appearance should be caught; Those who are close in stature and whose appearance has been ruined and unclear shall be caught; People surnamed Xun, even if they are not Xun Jin, will be tortured and interrogated.

"Uncle, can there be anyone suspicious or seriously injured here?" The soldier asked.

"Not yet." The old man shook his head, hoping that this group of menacing people would leave soon.

"Well, it looks like I've fled somewhere else."

The soldier couldn't help but be a little discouraged, and was about to leave, when he suddenly saw the old man's son looking flustered.

"Boy, what's there to panic?! Do you know where this person is? The soldier shouted, not wanting to miss any opportunity.

"Know... No, I don't know—" The man was frightened by the crowd.

"To know or not to know?!"

In anger, they drew their swords and put them on the man's shoulders.

"Don't worry. It was only early in the morning that the dog saw a monster passing by here. I don't know if it's a human being. The old man smiled all over his face and pointed in a random direction.

The generals put away their swords and nodded, and before leaving, they did not forget to reward the two of them for their feet, in order to vent their grievances of not telling them early.

"Ahem..."

Seeing that everyone was gone, the man dared to get up from the water, and then carefully helped his father.

The old man was coughing, and the man was no longer able to work today. I had to go home first to recuperate, and he would farm again in the future.

"Alas... I almost forgot that the overlord also killed hundreds of thousands of Qin soldiers, which is really not a benevolent monarch. The man sighed.

An old man and a young man returned home along the field road, and after walking a short distance, they could meet the injured peasants in the field, and they were about to shout and curse, when the sound of horses' hooves came from behind them.

"Stop!" The soldier, who seemed to be even more angry than the talented man, stopped the two, "Have you ever seen this person?" ”

"This..."The old man's son pointed to a direction at random, "The commander has already chased after him, and you military masters don't have to go again." ”

"It should be the overlord's soldiers, and we are the soldiers of the Zhong commander. Swear to kill this man! The leader shouted.

"Yes, yes—" The two nodded timidly, hoping that the comer would leave again.

The sound of horses' hooves moved a few paces away, and suddenly stopped. The two of them looked up cautiously, and saw the soldiers squinting at them.

"This is the time of farming, how can you not plow? Leaving at this moment, I'm afraid it's for this person to report the news?! The leader asked.

"That's not the case! Just because the villain's father and son were injured... Unable to farm. "The son of the old man did not dare to tell the fine cause.

"Humph! What is there to hurt in the field? If the appearance is suspicious, there must be a conspiracy! Torture until they say it! ”

The father and son were helpless, and could only watch as everyone approached again.

In the midst of the torture, another side of soldiers and horses flashed by...

People from other countries fled after making trouble with the king's palace, and the soldiers of Lu Chen and Zhong Liyi could not bear this humiliation, and the lord humiliated the ministers to death, not to mention that the two were seriously injured. If the soldiers of the three parties do not catch Xun Jin, they will not give up, no matter what means are used.

Within a few days, from Pengcheng on the east side of the Chu State, to the west and north, there were murderous soldiers passing by every day. The soldiers of the three parties thought about Xun Jin Xu and wanted to flee south to the land of the two of them. At that time, the people of the entire Chu land were disturbed by the chaos for unknown reasons.

Pengcheng, Zhongliyi's residence.

Xiang Yu, Sima Long Tho, Ji Bu... Anyone who had old friends with Zhong Liyi stayed in Zhong Mansion many times, waiting for Zhong Liyi to wake up.

Fan Zeng monopolized the outside of the house, his face was like frost.

"The overlord has no intention of doing anything, and the second father will discuss with the overlord when he is in charge of Zhong." The delicate-looking Yu Ziqi persuaded.

"The old man can't wait any longer!" Fan Zeng bared his teeth and shouted, the humid climate suddenly made his back hurt, "In order to find someone, Chu Di has been in chaos!" The people did not know what was going on. This move is extremely confused, just as the child wishes! Quickly order the withdrawal of troops, otherwise Da Chu will be in danger! ”

Fan Zeng tried his best to raise his voice and deliberately said to Xiang Yu in the house. Earlier, Fan Zeng and Xiang Yu quarreled endlessly over this matter, and they broke up unhappily repeatedly.

Yu Ziqi persuaded the two of them to mediate, but Ji Bu and others complained that he didn't care about his peers, and Fan Zeng also complained that Yu Ziqi shouldn't persuade him, and in a hurry, he also said some ugly things about Yu's family.

The Yuzi period ended up unflattering inside and out.

"This is the trick of the little man! How can the overlord not know?! Fan Zeng continued to shout.

As soon as the words fell, Ji Bu, who looked tired, walked out of the house.

"When does the overlord want to withdraw the order?" Fan Zeng asked head-on.

"The overlord wants to make the father quieter, don't alarm the bell commander." Ji Bu whispered.

"Yu'er!" Fan Zengqi trembled, speechless.

Yu Ziqi hurriedly helped the old strategist who was unstable to stand up, but Fan Zeng stretched out his hand to shake him off.

Ji Bu saw that there was no result, so he had to go back to take care of Zhong Liyi.

Several Chu soldiers dragged several corpses from outside.

"It's... Where are these people killed?! Fan Zeng said angrily, "Murderous soldiers, military law!" ”

Several people put down their bodies and hurriedly knelt on the ground and arched their hands, "It's not the people, but the people who assisted Xun Jin out of the city that day. ”

"Mei Kai helps the baby?!"

Fan Zeng suddenly felt strange, according to what he heard, Mei Kai should unite with the Lu clan at this moment, and with Lu Pheasant's hatred for Ziying, Mei Kai would never be able to do this.

"A ruse, it must be a ruse!" Fan Zeng thought about it for a while, and his heart suddenly became clear, "Ziying should have no intention of letting Chu be in chaos, just to let Xun Jin escape after making trouble in the palace, and after being rescued by the Yue people, he will be captured by the Yue people!" Luring Yu'er to attack the Vietnamese side is Ziying's real trick! ”

"Good calculation, so poisonous!" Fan Zeng's voice was lowered, and he pointed to the corpse on the ground, "Take it down, don't let the overlord see this!" Chu Di has been chaotic, and there is no regeneration of incidents! ”

"This..."The generals looked at each other, if according to Fan Zeng's words, this move would be to deceive Xiang Yu...

"Get out! Otherwise, the old man will kill you! Fan Zeng shouted.

"Subordinates obey orders..."

"Stop!" Xiang Yu's eyes were bloodshot, he pushed the door out, and called everyone, "How can the father hide such a big thing?" ”

Xiang Yu's tone was gloomy, and he stepped forward and squatted next to Yue Ren's corpse, and after careful inspection, Fan Zeng secretly screamed that it was not good when he saw this.

"Sure enough, it's Yue Ren! But dare to be the enemy of this overlord! Xiang Yu used his palm to crush the corpse's face and bones, "Choose a day to attack the Yue people!" ”

"No!" Fan Zeng hurriedly said, "Xun Jin entered Chu to lure Great Chu to attack Yue, how can it be like Ziying's intentions?" The Yue people here should be taken by Ziying on weekdays to provoke Yu'er. Ziying conspiracy, yang conspiracy and use only for this matter, how can Yu'er not know? ! ”

"Heh... The Father's words were not true. Xiang Yu laughed arrogantly, "What Ziying took should be Wu Rui's Yue, and what he wants to attack should be Mei Hong's Yue." Mei Kai Su likes plum blossoms, and the baby should know, so he lures the feathers. How could Yu be deceived by it? Yu Xun Xun can't be promoted, Qin Di is far away, so he will cut down Wu Rui to vent his anger! ”

"Attack Wu Rui?!"

Fan Zeng covered his forehead with his hand, looking in a trance. Xiang Yu expected it to be good, but it was better to attack Mei Rui than to attack Wu Rui with his own cleverness.

Mei Kai is only one force, and it has not been long since it has been in Jiujiang, and although it has sent troops to attack, it will not hurt the roots. Wu Rui won the hearts of the people, and the southwest of Chu was full of Yue people at this time, once the war started, Mei Li would definitely help Wu Rui. Although the two of them did not help Wu Rui, they would not let Mei Kai, who was of the same sect, be punished. At that time, I am afraid that if we do not kill all the Yue people, the Chu State will not be able to easily quell the war. The entire south of Kyushu will be stained by war...

"Yu'er's expectation is good, but don't rush to attack. Zhuang'er has been controlled, Zang Tu is attached to Da Chu, waiting for the two to pacify Changshan and Handi, repair the time, and the three armies will come out together, why worry about the injustice of the world? Fan Zeng knew that he couldn't be forced, so he could only be appeased.

"Why do you need to go out together? Don't you let the people of the world think that this overlord is not as good as back then?! Xiang Yu was arrogant, "Great Chu is just one country!" ”

"Yu'er!"

"The Father doesn't need to say much." Xiang Yu got up and stepped on the corpse of Yue Ren, "Ziying wants to drag down Da Chu with Mei Kai, so Yu let Ziying know that Yue Ren is not the enemy of Da Chu!" Wu Rui was the queen of the king, Mei Kai, the donkey was shaken, and the donkey was not crowned the king, and there was also antipathy. It's better to be flat early. ”

"Uh..."

Fan Zeng was about to speak, but suddenly raised his head suddenly, and the sore on his back was about to tear his body apart.

"The Yue people... Unattackable! The Great Chu soldiers no longer had to search for Xun Jin. Call... Zhuang Er has a saying, the qi of Qi Di has changed, wait for a few years, the northern countries will not harvest the grain, it can be said that the world is at your fingertips. Fan Zeng endured the pain.

"The overlord does not have to rely on the sky to act. Yu will attack when he is not weak, and discipline the younger people to be convinced. Xiang Yu said, "The father is sick, send the father back to the house quickly." ”

Yu Ziqi was about to help Fan Zeng, but was thrown away by Fan Zeng again, taking care of Zhong Liyi for many days, and Yu Ziqi was not paying attention and fell to the ground.

Xiang Yu was startled, and his pupils suddenly contracted. A wave of anger arose from his heart and went straight to Fan Zeng.

Xiang Yu has always respected soldiers and despised strategists, and Yu Zi was still a relative of Yu Ji, and his status in his heart was far beyond ordinary people. Fan Zeng was so rude, and Xiang Yu's admiration for him gradually dissipated.

"Send my father home quickly!!" Xiang Yu roared.

The generals got up, regardless of whether Fan Zeng wanted to leave or not, grabbed his arms and went straight out to support him.

"Shaft! How to disturb the people?! The foundation of Da Chu will collapse with your hands! Fan Zeng shouted, and the voice faded away until he couldn't hear it.

Xiang Yu helped Yu Ziqi up, and was about to appease, but Yu Ziqi spoke first, "Father Ya has a great heart, and the overlord must not be resentful." ”

"Hmph, there have been so many things that have not been achieved recently, how can you compare with the soldiers who fought on the battlefield? The people would only live in the fields and wait for the soldiers to kill the enemy in blood. If Da Chu is offended by chasing the enemy, how dare the people complain?! Xiang Yu complained, not talking about his Fan Zeng's dissatisfaction with Yu Ji.

"Soldiers also have parents of the people, and the overlord should not think so much." Yu Ziqi persuaded and wanted to dissuade him further, thinking that his former comrades-in-arms were still unconscious, he endured it and said nothing.

"The words of the sub-period are reasonable." Xiang Yu's face softened slightly, "This overlord has ordered that Lu Chen and the soldiers led by Commander Zhong are not allowed to move recklessly. ”

"That's fine." Yu Ziqi smiled with relief, and said in his heart that if Xiang Yu can do this, the grievances he has suffered in recent days are also worth it, "As for the matter of attacking the Yue people, you can wait for Commander Zhong to be unharmed, and then go into battle with the overlord to kill the enemy." ”

Xiang Yu sighed with emotion, frowned and nodded.

"Heh... The minister has been tired recently, so he can't stay in Zhongfu for a long time. Yu Ziqi smiled weakly.

"Get back quickly."

After Yu Zi gave the salute, he turned around and walked out of the Zhong Mansion. Xiang Yu stayed where he was for a long time, eager for revenge, but he also knew that it was taboo to use troops during the agricultural season, and after thinking carefully about Fan Zeng's words, he couldn't help but retreat.

"That's it, let's listen to my father's words again, fight again after the farming time, and leave Wu Rui's dog for some more time."

Xiang Yu's murderous aura dissipated, and he wanted to return to Zhong Liyi's side.

Suddenly, he heard the sound of the blades outside the mansion, and his heart was not good, and he rushed out of the mansion.

Yu Zi was wounded in his left arm and chest, bleeding profusely, and the guards of Zhongfu were either injured or died outside the mansion. And the corpses of the offending enemies were also left on the spot.

"Yue Ren! Baby! It's too much of a deception! Xiang Yu's dissipated murderous aura reappeared.

"It's... The method of the child and the infant is excited, and the overlord cannot be calculated. Zhong Liyi covered the wound with his right arm and persuaded, but there were too many wounds, and there was always something that could not be taken care of.

"Needless to say, Commander Zhong, Lu Chen's troops don't have to be withdrawn! What about the agricultural time, Wu Rui will die!! ”

Yu Zi was so painful that he couldn't speak, his eyes were dim, and he lost consciousness.

......

Compared with the Zhong Mansion, the Lu Chen Mansion is particularly deserted. Except for his father Lu Qing and the people of the clan to take care of him, he did not visit anyone from the court.

Lu Chen's left foot was wrapped in layers, lying on the couch, his eyes open in a daze.

"Nothing?! Get lost! Look for it again! If there is no trace of Xun Jin, there is no need to return! "Outside the house, Lu Chen's father, Lu Qing Dynasty soldiers roared.

After the soldiers retreated, Lu Qing put away his anger and forced a smile at his son on the couch.

"Father, can the minister of the DPRK and China visit?" Lu Chen asked.

"No... They all went to Zhongfu to be courteous. Lu Qing replied, afraid that his son would be sad in his heart, so he deliberately hid Xiang Yu's old days in Zhongfu.

"A group of villains, who only know how to cling to the overlord and reuse them. Scold... At that time, the commander and the overlord divided their troops to resist Qin, and Zhong Liyi and others were only young generals under the overlord's account. Time has passed, and the villain has a will. Lu Chen's face was sick, his mood was not good, and he had been complaining for more than ten days.

"What about stumbling? You are still the Situ of Great Chu, how can you compare Zhong Liyi and the like? Although Lu Qing's face was full of sadness, he still comforted his son.

"Heh... Father really knows how to laugh. Lu Chen was sad, "The overlord likes the minister who is good at war, his son is disabled, how can he still go into battle to kill the enemy?" No matter how chaotic the world is, when it is the Yuzi period, Ji Bu, and Sima Long Tho make meritorious contributions, King Huai was Ming Shengshi and demoted his son to Situ, and I am afraid that even the position of Situ will be handed over to others in the future. ”

"Don't talk nonsense! Lao Tzu is also a great Chu hero, I want to take the position of you and my father and son, dream! Lu Qing is stubborn in his mouth, but he is also difficult here, and the credit for killing the enemy in blood does not mean that it can last long, "You, I, father and son, and Tong'er!" Tong'er ignored the hatred of the year, and repeatedly leaked the affairs of the Qin State. As long as... If the Qin State does not die, the Lu family will not be treated lightly! ”

"Qin State?" Lu Chen looked at his father's resolute face and smiled bitterly, "It is the son who has been harmed by the child who has fallen to this point, and the Lu family still wants to protect the Qin State?" Hahaha..."

At the end of the laugh, Lu Chen twisted his body and slammed the couch, knowing that although this statement was absurd, it was the only way to protect the situation. The ministers who smile right on weekdays will only know his true thoughts when something happens. Today, he is not to death, he is so cold, he can't imagine what will happen to the Lu family when they lose power.

"Just let the child and baby use it again... Although the land of Qin is far away, it will always be destroyed by the Great Chu, and when the time comes, the son will let the child live as well as die! Lu Chen roared with a hideous face.

The sound of footsteps outside the door sounded, and Lu Qing walked briskly over, knowing that it was Lu Matong who had sent another secret message. Instantly took the secret letter, closed the door again, and returned to Lu Chen's bed.

"What's the matter with Lu Tong?" Lu Chen asked in an unkind tone, "Alas, in the past few months, there have been countless secret letters, thousands of believes, but there is no matter of Xun Jin making trouble in the Chu State, otherwise my son would not be like this!" ”

"Don't blame Tong'er for this." Lu Qing opened the bamboo slip and refuted his son, "Ziying's plan is very poisonous and dangerous, if Xun Jin is not killed, the Chu State will not easily attack, if it is successful, the combination of yin and yang, discipline Fan Zeng to perceive, and persuade Xiang Yu not to." Xun Jin didn't know the whole picture of this plan, how did Tong'er know? ”

This remark caused Lu Chen to grit his teeth again.

Lu Qing opened the letterhead and suddenly showed a puzzled look, "This... Blame! Weird! The chaos of Xun and Jin, Tong Er does not know. But how did Tong'er know about this child sending people to mess with Yan? The child was deliberately leaked to the child? If so, can this letter, the letter not long ago, also be deliberately made by Ziying? ”

Lu Chen noticed the strangeness and put away his anger, "There are too many messages from Tong'er, and with the thoughts of the child, he should have known it a long time ago, how can he let Tong'er come to him?" Is that really the case? ”

Lu Qing threw the bamboo slip to the ground, "This letter is not credible, if Xiang Yu asks, just make up some things." ”

"That's exactly how it should be!" Lu Chen nodded, and his dissatisfaction with Xiang Yu also came to his heart.

On the other side of Kyushu, a king smiled at his ministers, "Don't pay attention to the matter of Commander Lu, there is a way for the widow to make the Lu family believe it or not." ”
