Chapter 63: Lu Jia's Choice
"The two of them really colluded with Xiang Yu!" Lu Pheasant said angrily.
Zhang Liang, who was outside the tent, had not gone far, and when he heard the guard's words, he hurriedly ran in the direction of Zhou Bo and Cao Shen.
"Ahem, cough, the two commanders will keep people under the sword." Zhang Liang covered his chest and coughed, Zhang Liang's health was not good, which was one of the reasons why Liu Bang was not vigilant against him after the emperor.
Cao Shen's knife had already been raised in the air, and when he saw Zhang Liang coming, he hurriedly stopped it.
Cao Shen bowed his head and said, "Mr. Zifang, killing Lu Jia is the meaning of Duke Pei and Mrs. Pei, please don't be embarrassed." β
Cao Shen was originally a jailer in Pei County, and he had always been good friends with the chief official Xiao He and the pavilion chief Liu Bang. Later, with Liu Bang's uprising, he killed Li Si's eldest son Li You, the county guard of Sanchuan County, in Yongqiu, and heard the nominal army.
Lu Jia smiled bitterly, "The person Lu has made friends with the least in his life is Mr. Zifang." β
"Mr. Lu and Mr. Li can't be killed, Xiang Yu wants to see them." Ziying gasped and said.
Lu Jia and the others were taken aback.
Zhou Bo clenched his fists, "It seems that Madame's expectations are good, colluding with Xiang Yu is true!" β
"The two gentlemen persuaded the generals all the way to surrender, presumably Mr. Fan Zeng knew, and this was the reason for the meeting. The two Commanders are not to speculate. Zhang Liang analyzed.
Zhou Bo and Cao Shen exchanged glances.
"Now Pei Gong doesn't believe in these two people, if they join the enemy, it will not be good for our army, so it is better to kill them." Zhou Bo proposed.
"What? Commander Zhou Bo also wants to learn from Commander Xiahou to go back to his old job? Lu Jia laughed miserably.
"Lu Jia, you are looking for death!" Zhou Bo tore off Lu Jia's Confucian hat and stomped on his feet.
Zhou Bo grew up in a poor family, raised silkworms and reeled silk as a business, and in order to make a living, he also worked as a drummer at a funeral.
Lu Jia is provocative at the moment, maybe he will also make fun of him behind his back.
"Although Xiang Yu's army only came 300,000, it is not something that Pei Gong can resist, if Commander Zhou Bo kills Mr. Lu, this will be putting Pei Gong to death." Zhang Liang said urgently.
"Let it go." Cao Shen said helplessly.
Zhou Bo let go angrily, and Lu Jia stopped in place, not moving.
"It is inevitable that the gentleman will die and the crown, and I hope that Commander Zhou Bo will help him pick up the crown." Lu Jia said lightly.
"Lu Jia, you..."
"Please also ask Commander Zhou Bo to help pick up the crown under him!" Lu Jia said again, his originally elegant eyes showed a hint of determination, "Otherwise, I don't dare to guarantee that I will say something in front of Xiang Yu." β
"Lu Jia, you dare to threaten me!" Zhou Bo said angrily.
"Confucianism never threatens people, it all depends on how Commander Zhou chooses." Lu Jia smiled, he had no decision to stay in Liu Ying, and he was not afraid of offending Zhou Bo.
"Lu Jia, you have a kind! We'll see! β
Zhou Bo picked up his hat, patted the dust on it, and put it on Lu Jia's head.
Zhou Bo and Cao Shen walked away, and Zhang Liang slowly spoke, "Is Mr. Lu going to Qin or Qi next?" β
Lu Jia was taken aback, "Mr. Zifang didn't think that he would defect to Xiang Yu or return to his hometown in Chudi?" β
"Xiang Yu was brutal, slaughtered the city, slaughtered the city, slaughtered the Xin'an, Mr. Lu will not defect, Confucianism will be peaceful in the world, and it will not be Mr. Lu's choice when he returns to his hometown."
"The state of Qin is brutal, and the state of Qi is in turmoil. Why does Mr. Zifang think that he is going to these two countries? Lu Jia asked.
Zhang Liang smiled slightly, "The surname Lu originated from Tian Tong, the young son of King Xuan of Qi, who was sealed in Lu Township, although Mr. is from Chu, he is originally from the Qi royal family. As for Qin Guo, when Mr. Lu returned from Lantian Pass, his eyes changed, and he must have had other thoughts about Qin Guo in his heart. β
Lu Jia was secretly amazed by Zhang Liang's insight and observation.
"The state of Qi was newly established, and the general Tian Rong was dissatisfied with Tian Jiao being made king, causing Tian Jiao to flee to Zhao State. At the time of the giant deer, Zhao was besieged, and Tian Rong did not send troops to rescue. If a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, such a Qi country will definitely be a place to provoke new disputes. Lu Jia said.
"That gentleman is going to defect to the Qin State." Zhang Liang asked.
"It's not to defect to the Qin State, it's to defect to Ziying." There was a hint of longing in Lu Jia's eyes, "Yesterday, Ziying was willing to be Hetian Yu, and he talked extraordinary, and today he can dismiss the harem, such a king is what Lu wants to assist." β
Lu Jia paused, "Pei Gong was injured by Mo Chu's sword, he is no longer a good master. The camp is full of Mrs.'s world, Mrs. is obedient by nature, and I hope Mr. Zifang will also make plans early. β
"Mr. Xie Lu reminds that Mr. rest early, something big will happen tonight." Zhang Liang arched his hand.
Lu Jia looked back at Liu Bang, the battalion commander sighed and left.
Zhang Liang stood in place for a long time and muttered, "The Qi country is in turmoil, and then Pi is also..."
In Liu Bang's camp, Liu Bang and Lu Pheasant's faces were pale, and there were two objects on several cases, which Ziying had just sent Lu Matong to send.
"Ziying doesn't know too much, and you only know one of these two things, right?" Lu Pheasant frowned.
Liu Bang had a gloomy face, stretched out his hand and pointed to the yellow stone, and said vaguely, "The Book of Huangshi Heavenly in the Ovary." β
"And what does this comb mean?" Lu Pheasant was puzzled, but he could guess that it was also about Zhang Liang, but Ziying knew that they couldn't guess at all.
"Dude, do you know what that means?" Liu Bang asked.
After the camp, a man about fifty years old with the eyes of an eagle-nosed leopard came out.
It is Liu Bang's best friend - Lu Juan.
The Liu family and the Lu family were world friends as early as when they were in Pei County, and the closest subordinate to Liu Bang in the camp was Lu Juan, who was born on the same day, the same month, and the same year.
Lu Juan looked at it carefully and sneered, "Ziying's plan to separate is also a little naΓ―ve, thinking that this will make Pei Gong suspicious of Mr. Zifang." β
"What the hell does this wooden comb mean?" Lu Pheasant was uneasy.
"Mr. Zifang Bo Langsha failed to assassinate Qin and fled to Xiapi for refuge, where he met the daughter of a former Hancheng nobleman, named 'Shuzi', who has become Mr. Zifang's wife." Lu Qian explained.
"Why has the ovary never been mentioned to me..."Liu Bang covered his forehead and pondered.
"This child seems to know Zhang Liang very well, what is going on? Could it be that he's..."Lu Pheasant frowned.
"Don't guess! Isn't it enough to have two traitors! β
Liu Bang said this, and his suspicion of Zhang Liang had already been planted.
The curtain was lifted, and the guard outside the camp walked in again, holding a small manger in his hand.
"Pei Gong, this is what Ziying specified to give to Madame."
