There was a loud bang, and Xiong Huai smashed a copper kettle to the ground.

Then, Xiong Huai still scolded angrily: "Zhuang Xin, this bastard, what does he mean by this, what does he want to do?" ”

Just now, Xiong Huai learned that Zhuang Xin was on the dock, and in front of everyone's eyes, he used strong words and heresies to force Xiang Ji to shake hands with him, and he was immediately angry.

Because of the crown prince, Xiong Huai was worried that Xiang Ji might be hit hard if he escaped from his protection.

For this reason, Xiong Huai deliberately created momentum for Xiangjian yesterday, hoping that the prince and those people around the prince would have some scruples and would not immediately launch a powerful offensive against Xiangji, so that Xiangjian would not have time to adapt.

Fortunately, yesterday he had just warned those people, and only one day later, this morning, Xiang Ji suffered the first major setback and humiliation of his life.

And this humiliation is closely related to the death of his brother and the slaughter of his family.

Where is this hitting Xiangji, this is clearly slapping him, the king of Chu, in the face!

And the slap in the face was so fast, so ruthless, and so unexpected.

However, Xiong Huai is more worried about whether Xiang Ji can recover from this blow, if he can't cross this hurdle, Xiang Ji may be wasted.

It's just that after Xiang Ji shook hands with Zhuang Xin, he immediately took a boat to Fang County.

Now, even if Xiong Huai wants to see the disease, or explain and comfort him, he can't do it.

Thinking of this, Xiong Huai suddenly gritted his teeth with hatred for Zhuang Xin.

After a pause, he straightened out his anger, and when his anger was straightened out, Xiong Huai said coldly: "I don't want to, the change hasn't started yet, and all these bulls, ghosts, snakes, and gods have jumped out." ”

After a while, a messenger walked into the palace tremblingly, and cautiously reported: "King, the upper doctor Zhuang Xin has returned to Yingdu, because the king ordered him to come directly to the king after he returns." Therefore, the doctor was already waiting outside the palace for the king's summons. ”

"Zhuang Xin, hehe!" Xiong Huai smiled coldly.

Previously, Xiong Huai asked Zhuang Xin to come to him, the purpose was to find out about Ye Jun's situation so that he could decide when to make the next move.

However, now, as soon as Xiong Huai thinks of Zhuang Xin, he is angry.

However, since Zhuang Xin is here, he can't be gone.

Thinking about it, Xiong Huai quickly gathered his thoughts and responded: "Pass! ”

"Yui."

Soon after, Zhuang Xin walked in.

After the ceremony.

Xiong Huai sat on the throne, looked at Zhuang Xin expressionlessly, and was silent for a long time.

And Zhuang Xin sat down calmly, quietly waiting for King Chu's inquiry.

After a long time, Xiong Huai saw that Zhuang Xin's face did not change, and then asked, "Xianqing, is the handover with the general smooth this time?" ”

"Back to the king, everything goes well." Zhuang Xin immediately replied.

"Okay, that's fine." Xiong Huai nodded, and then said calmly: "Since this is the case, then Xianqing should step back and go back to rest." ”

"This..." Zhuang Xin suddenly looked at the King of Chu in disbelief.

The king of Chu asked him to enter the palace as soon as he returned to Yingdu, and soon did he have any important inquiries?

As a result, he came to the palace and saw the king of Chu, and the king of Chu asked so lightly, and then asked him to go back to rest.

I didn't talk about the past, I didn't ask about the situation of Ye County, and I didn't ask about his next appointment...

It seems that the king of Chu is even more angry than he imagined.

Thinking about it, Zhuang Xin paused, took two deep breaths, and then said, "Only." ”

That night, in Zhuang Xin's house, Zhuang Xin sat in a pavilion, holding a pot in one hand and a cup in the other, drinking to himself.

Suddenly, there was a commotion in the house, and then, Zhuang Ji, who was wearing armor, hurriedly walked over.

Zhuang Ji came to Zhuang Xin, and when he saw Zhuang Xin's leisurely appearance, he couldn't help but be a little anxious: "Brother, you still have the heart to drink here, do you know what you did today." ”

When Zhuang Xin heard this, he glanced at Zhuang Ji leisurely, then drank all the wine in the wine glass, and then smiled: "Brother Wei will only come to Yingdu today, where can I do anything?" ”

Zhuang Ji was stunned, thinking that Zhuang Xin didn't know the depths, and said hurriedly: "Brother, the younger brother heard that when the elder brother came back, he met Xiang Chengjun and shook hands with him. ”

"Yes, there is indeed such a thing, because my brother saw that Xiangchengjun was beautiful, and his heart moved, so he shook hands with him."

"Disaster is coming! My brother has always been a bad man, why is he so impulsive today? The elder brother knew that Xiang Chengjun was raised by the King of Chu himself, and the King of Chu personally presided over the crown ceremony for him yesterday, and he was very fond of him. ”

"Yes!"

"Know... Road? Zhuang Ji's eyebrows suddenly raised.

He thought that Zhuang Xin had just come back from Yejun and didn't know the details of Yingdu, so he had an impulsive move, but he didn't want to, Zhuang Xin knew.

This...

Zhuang Ji looked at Zhuang Xin in surprise, his heart full of doubts.

"Since my brother knows about this, why does my brother still force Xiang Chengjun to shake hands with you, isn't my brother incurring trouble for himself?"

When Zhuang Xin heard this, he immediately laughed.

Then, Zhuang Xin sighed, then motioned for Zhuang Ji to sit opposite him, and then, first filled a cup for Zhuang Ji, then filled a glass for himself, and finally drank it all.

"Brother Xian doesn't know, Brother Fool's move is not to invite trouble, but to avoid disaster."

"Avoid trouble?!" Zhuang Ji was even more puzzled in his heart, and he didn't know what medicine was sold in Zhuang Xin's gourd.

Seeing Zhuang Ji look at him strangely, Zhuang Xin first shook his head and looked around, and saw that there was no figure near him, so he spoke: "Brother Xian, do you know the current situation in the world." ”

Zhuang Ji was slightly stunned, and then nodded: "Little brother knows a little bit about it, since the Yan State surrendered to the Qi State, the Qi State has solved its worries, and has unified the east and united the Qin State to form an encirclement of our Chu State." Although the countries are relatively stable at present, the joint action of various countries to defeat Chu can be said to be in full swing, and a major war is about to break out. ”

Speaking of this, Zhuang Ji looked at Zhuang Xin strangely and said: "Brother, although the external situation of my Chu State is not optimistic, but the king is wise, Ling Yin is virtuous, and the king and Ling Yin have already begun to adjust the defense line in the north to deal with various countries. This time, the king asked his brother to return from Yejun and let the general Zhao, who was proficient in military affairs, go to Yejun, isn't it just a precaution for the future?

Moreover, when my brother returns to Yingdu, far away from the battlefield, he does not need to lead the army to fight, what disaster do he need to avoid? ”

Zhuang Xin shook his head and said: "When the countries attack, naturally it has little to do with the foolish brother, but what about the country? The trouble of my Chu country is not abroad but at home, and the disaster of the foolish brother is related to this. ”

"Domestic?" Zhuang Ji was stunned, remembered the rumors in Yingdu's secret, and said hesitantly: "Brother is saying..."

"Yes, the foolish brother is avoiding this calamity." Zhuang Xin nodded seriously.
