"Xiao Ying."

Xiao Jinxing called lightly to the beautiful woman with apricot eyes and at a loss.

The beautiful woman slowly raised her head and looked at Xiao Jinxing, and only then did two lines of tears flow out of her face full of fear.

"Xiao Gongzi."

The beautiful woman exclaimed with a gloomy expression.

"Hahahaha."

Just as the master and servant saw each other again after twenty years, Xiao Zishuo's laughter broke the only trace of warmth in the hall, and he struggled to point at Xiao Ying and then at Xiao Jinxing, and suddenly rolled his eyes after choking on a violent cough.

Finally, after being rescued by the tearful Mrs. Mingzhu on the back, Xiao Zishuo began to chuckle again, and then pointed at Xiao Ying with disdain and said:

"You, if it weren't for the widow who wanted to experience the taste of your master in you, where would I have kept you to this day?

But it's reasonable for you to come and kill me, every time I go to your palace to let you sleep in the past twenty years, your eyes are full of killing intent, do you think I really don't know?

Ha ha! ”

"Poof."

Xiao Zishuo had just opened his mouth and was about to laugh, when everyone saw a cold light pass by, and Xiao Zishuo's head with a blood flower fell to the ground in an arc in the air, rolling and stopping at the feet of Xiao Jinxing, who had withdrawn his sword.

"Xiaoying, come!"

Xiao Jinxing did not look down at the head master who had made him ruthless for more than 20 years, nor was he elated because of the revenge.

At this time, he only had Xiao Ying in his eyes, the trembling and helpless figure of the maid who had lived with him and Qing'er for a long time.

Xiao Ying slowly walked away and walked towards the man who had stretched out his hand to her, but she didn't want to be suddenly hugged by a three or four-year-old child, making it difficult for her to move an inch.

She slowly lowered her head, hugged her son and cried bitterly.

Just when everyone's eyes were attracted by Xiao Jinxing, who put down his hand with his sword in the sheath, and Xiao Ying, who was crying with a child in his arms, no one noticed that Mrs. Mingzhu, who was calm and calm when her husband was assassinated, suddenly picked up the hairpin on the ground and stabbed it towards her chest.

Her corpse lay on the headless Qi Gong, and her calm face seemed to indicate the awareness she had already had in her heart.

"Mother!"

As Gongzi's heart-rending call sounded, Xiao Jinxing slowly waved his hand back, and Zhezhe and the others behind him took all the Duchess and Gongzi of Qi who had forgotten to cry out of the Qinglong Palace.

When the Green Dragon Hall returned to silence, Xiao Jin walked in front of Xiao Ying and hugged the poor woman in his arms.

"It's me who is bad, it's me who is not good.

I'm late.

Brother Xiao is late. ”

......

"What,

The kingdom of Qi was destroyed,

Qi Gong died.

Why is it so fast? Isn't there still an army of more than 100,000 in Tokyo, and isn't there a famous general like Lian Min among the leaders?

Why didn't they hold out for even half a year, and they were breached like this?

How good is that? ”

Yidu of Shu,

In the smoke cloud building,

After getting the news and letting himself rush to the Yanyun Tower, Gu Daoyuan was so shocked that he couldn't even close his mouth when he heard the earth-shattering news that Yu Lihua told him.

He held the teacup in his hand blankly, but he just looked at the solemn look of Zhu Lihua in a daze, not caring whether the fragrant tea was cold or not.

"Uncle, it is reported that the Rong army first promised that as long as the Qi State offered 50,000 women and gold and silver, the army would be withdrawn, and the Duke of Qi had no choice but to agree to the Rong army's request.

When they captured the woman in the city of Tokyo, they already provoked the anger of the heavens, and then the Duke of Qi forced Lian Min, who was the main battle, to die in the Qinglong Palace, which finally provoked a popular uprising.

The people fought with the forbidden army of Qi all night, and the Rong army took advantage of the chaos to attack the city.

Under the domestic and foreign difficulties, the city of Tokyo will not be broken, and the country of Qi will not die.

However, at present, the Rong people have already established Gongzi as the new Duke of Qi.

Therefore, this Qi country cannot be said to be completely destroyed, at least there is still a monarch in Tokyo. ”

After Lu Lihua finished speaking, Gu Daoyuan thought carefully and then replied with a frown:

"Thinking that the Rong army had already sent a fine work into the city of Tokyo, on the surface, Xiao Jin ordered the Duke of Qi to arrest the woman, causing the people to hate his monarch, and secretly most of the people's rebellion was also instigated by these fine works.

General Lian Min was killed by the Duke of Qi, which became the fuse that ignited the anger in the hearts of the people of Tokyo.

At the same time, the military spirit of the Qi army will definitely become a mess.

Therefore, when the people rebelled, even though there were more than 100,000 troops in the city, there must have been very few people who could do their best to serve the Duke of Qi.

After all, Duke Qi has lost the morale of the army and the people.

This was the reason for the rapid capture of Tokyo.

Such a simple truth, no one in the Qi State Manchu Dynasty can see it.

Alas, sad and lamentable.

As for the establishment of Gongzi as the new king, what is the difference between this and the destruction of the country?

Unexpectedly, it was only seven or eight days since we came to Yidu, and the country of Qi had already fallen apart. This makes us have to speed up our pace and not drag it out any longer. ”

After Gu Daoyuan calmly analyzed the reasons for the destruction of the Qi State, even Zhu Lihua couldn't help but glance at this wise old man a few more times.

However, Gu Daoyuan can be called an "immortal crane", so he naturally has his own unique thoughts, so he can point out the problems of Qi State.

At the same time, there was also disdain for the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty in his words.

Even Zhu Lihua thought that if there was a person like Gu Daoyuan among the ministers of the Qi State, how could he die so quickly.

"Uncle, this news was reported urgently by our Tanma, so I guess that it will be five days before the Shu Kingdom will get the news that the Qi State has been destroyed.

After the Rong army obtained the entire territory of Qi, it was very likely that its troops would reach Shenjing.

At that time, this Shu country will no longer be able to sit back and relax. ”

"Virtuous nephew, do you mean that the Rong army will attack Shu?

Then why didn't they fight Chu and us?

As you know, the country of Chu is vast and rich, and we have just experienced a great war, and now it is the time for the end of the crossbow to be lifted.

It's more cost-effective to beat us or the Chu Congress. ”

After listening to Lihua's analysis, Gu Daoyuan stared at Lihua and asked suspiciously.

And Zhu Lihua shook his head and said:

"Uncle, the northwest of Shenjing leads to the five counties of Shangluo and Xieyu in the east of the river.

Due north leads to Sanchuan County of Qi State.

The southwest intersects with the border of Shu and the north of Luoying Mountain.

The southeast is connected to the land of Jingbei of Chu State.

Therefore, when the time comes, after the troops of the Rong State army arrive in Shenjing, no one can guess where they will march next, and no one may be attacked.

But compared with us and the Chu State, it should be the Shu people who should be most panicked at that time.

After all, although the Luoying Mountain Range is steep, it is far inferior to Longling.

Moreover, the army of Shu was mostly deployed in Longling, and there were not too many soldiers and horses deployed in the direction of Luoying Mountain.

Now the Rong army will not attack the Chu State the most, because the Chu State not only has a large number of troops, but also the Rong Army has just suffered a big loss in the Battle of Yunmeng not long ago, and the cavalry of the Rong Army, which is known as the elite, has actually fought with the Rakshasa Iron Army of the Fourth Princess, so it is unlikely that they will go back to gnaw such hard bones.

Originally, attacking our Qin State should be the best choice for the Rong army, after all, opening up the Xieyu Corridor would completely connect the territory of the Rong army.

But now that Xieyu Pass is in my hands, the Western Rong Army has been severely damaged by our army, so it is difficult for the Western Rong Army to attack Xieyu Pass than to ascend to the sky.

As for the eastern side, Xiao Jinxing knew very well that except for his elite 20,000 Rong troops, the rest of the Qi recruits would definitely not be able to please our Qin State Iron Army.

And if the Chu people attacked them from the rear or attacked Tokyo during the stalemate of the fierce battle, the situation would have changed to a different situation.

Therefore, now the most unlikely to be attacked by the Rong army is not only the Chu State, but it is our Qin State.

But Shu is different, the country's soldiers and horses are weak, except for Xiongguan, there is no obstacle that can stop the advance of the Rong army.

Moreover, the appeasement policy pursued for hundreds of years will make them simply unable to receive the same strong reinforcements as we and the Chu State.

Xiao Jinxing is not a person who likes to choose hard-hitting, he likes to use strategy, strategy, and achieve the greatest benefit with the minimum cost.

Therefore, they will definitely prepare to attack Shu, and what we have to do is to help Liu Xiangbang control the state situation as soon as possible before this and get rid of Gongzi Tu. ”

Gu Daoyuan nodded after listening to Lihua's words, and had already indicated that he agreed with Lihua's point of view.

"Virtuous nephew, tonight Liu Xiangbang will hold a banquet to entertain me and Qi Xiangtian Dong, so at the banquet tonight, we can first explore Liu Xiangbang's tone, and then observe and observe the methods of that son's slaughter."

"Huh? Hasn't my uncle seen Liu Xiangbang in the past seven days? When she heard Gu Daoyuan say that she would only meet Liu Zhi for the first time tonight, she asked in surprise.

Since arriving in Yidu, Lihua has lived in the largest and most prosperous Yanyun Building in Yidu, and has lived a life of "drunk life and dream death" every day.

And Liu Zhi lived in the official post.

The reason why the two of them arranged it this way was originally a move to cover up people's eyes and ears as they had said in advance, but hearing that Gu Daoyuan hadn't seen Liu Zhi for seven or eight days, it still made Zhu Lihua's heart tense and surprised.

It is said that in the current situation, even if the destruction of the Qi State has not yet been reported, the Shu State should not be so snub to other countries.

Therefore, after seeing Gu Daoyuan shaking his head, Zhu Lihua thought about the strangeness of this slightly.

The two were silent, and suddenly there was a soft knock outside the door.

When he heard this, he first looked up and was stunned, and then said to Gu Daoyuan with a smile: "Uncle, don't blame, every day at this time, I will invite a few good people to come to my house to learn the piano."

Uncle happened to meet him today, so stay with me and enjoy the wind and snow together. ”

Gu Daoyuan looked at Yu Lihua with a wicked smile on his face, and then shook his head and said: "The reason why Gu still has some reputation for so many years is that he has accumulated a reputation for cherishing feathers over the past few decades.

I will send someone to pick you up at the banquet tonight, and now you can listen to the music and have fun, and my uncle will not accompany you. ”

After speaking, Gu Daoyuan stood up and walked outside the house with a displeased face.

"Uncle, everything should be settled tonight!"

Zhu Lihua said to Gu Daoyuan, who got up and walked out of the door, and then he stretched out his arm and clapped his hands "pop, pop".

With the applause and patting of Lihua, the door of the house was slowly pushed open, and several beautiful maids immediately entered the door.

They smiled and passed by Gu Daoyuan, like colorful butterflies, and flew into the house of Zhu Lihua.

These beautiful maids seem to have been very familiar with this disabled Zhao Gongzi of the Qin State for a long time.

And the guqin instruments placed at the door of the house were not picked up and played before Gu Daoyuan walked out of the door.

"Playing the piano?"

As the door of the house slowly closed, Gu Daoyuan listened to the sound of the warbler and swallow in the house, and couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head, muttering with a strange face while leaving the Yanyun Building.
