Xiong Heng, the prince of Chu, saw that many people in Linzi surrounded him and Qu Yuan, and quickly pulled Qu Yuan and ran back to his residence in Linzi.

As soon as he returned to his residence and buckled the door, Xiong Heng anxiously asked Qu Yuan:

"Lord Zuo, since Qi Guotian Ji has been killed by our Chu State, what should I do now? If Qi Guo investigates, I'm afraid it will take revenge on us! ”

Qu Yuan said:

"I still can't believe this, why don't we go and explain it to Qi Xiangtian Ying tomorrow?"

Xiong Heng immediately said:

"Lord Zuo, when is this, do you want to explain to Tian Ying tomorrow? You want to go yourself, I Xiong Heng doesn't want to be this dead ghost, we have to go back to Yingdu quickly, we can't wait to be caught in Linzi here! ”

Qu Yuan said helplessly:

"Then if we don't explain to Qi Xiangtian Ying, what else can we do? If we leave Linzi now, I am afraid that it will cause a greater misunderstanding in Qi Chu, and the consequences will only be more serious! ”

熊横 says:

"If you don't go, I'll go, I'm Xiong Heng is the prince of Chu State, I don't want to lose my life in this Qi country!"

After saying that, he turned around and quickly went back to pack his clothes.

Qu Yuan couldn't help but sigh and said:

"Alas, it seems that this is the only way, this is the only way!"

After Xiong Heng packed up his clothes, he came back and saw that Qu Yuan was still sighing, and quickly pulled his sleeve:

"Lord Zuo, don't sigh, hurry up and pack your things, pack your things!"

So the two of them quickly packed their luggage, then changed into civilian clothes and sneaked out the back door.

After the two came to the city gate, they found that the investigation at these city gates suddenly became strict, and the guards of the investigation kept asking whether the people entering and leaving the city were Chu people, and when they found out that they were Chu people, they were quickly escorted down, and Xiong Heng and Qu Yuan had to hide aside.

I only heard Xiong Heng ask Qu Yuan:

"This ...... I'm afraid we won't be able to escape, these guards know us! ”

Qu Yuan replied:

"Since we can't get out of this south gate, let's go to the west gate and have a look!"

As a result, when the two came to the West Gate, they found that the situation was the same as when they were at the South Gate, and they were both arresting the Chu people.

By this time it was already getting dark, and it was about to be time for the gates to close.

Xiong Heng discussed with Qu Yuan, but he still made up his mind to give it a try and see if he could get out of the city.

The two of them lowered their heads and lined up behind the people who left the city.

After a while, it was Xiong Heng and Qu Yuan's turn to be examined, and both of them lowered their heads at this time, not daring to raise them, for fear of being recognized.

I heard a guard beside me shouting at the two of them:

"You two, get your heads up!"

Both of them were terrified at this time, and they didn't dare to raise their heads at all.

I heard the guard shout again:

"Don't you hear you when you look up? Could it be that you are Chu people? If you don't raise your head again, then you will be directly taken down and disposed of by the Chu people! ”

Qu Yuan made eye contact with Xiong Heng, and was about to turn around and flee back to the city, after all, if the two of them were arrested at the city gate like this, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Suddenly, not far away, a driver with horse manure came to the city gate and said to the guard:

"These two people are servants in our prime minister's mansion, and they are going out of the city to run errands for our Tianwen Gongzi!"

The guard general looked at the carriage, and sure enough, it was from Tian Xiang's mansion, and the coachman who broke his wrist was also a person who often took Tian Xiang's son Tian Wen out of the city, so he naturally knew him, and this time the person who ordered the closure of the city was Qi Xiang Tian Ying.

The general of the guard respectfully asked, of course, to the coachman:

"Childe is in the car?"

The coachman replied:

"Tian Wengongzi is outside the city, I am going to go out of the city to greet Gongzi!"

The guard general hurriedly ordered the guard to let him go.

After Xiong Heng and Qu Yuan luckily left Linzi City with the carriage, the coachman asked the two of them to get into the carriage and took the two of them all the way to the east.

This coachman is Nie Xian, Nie Xian saved the prince of Chu Xiong Heng and Zuotu Qu Yuan to leave, but also to help Wei, so that the contradiction between Qi and Chu could not be resolved.

Halfway through, Qu Yuan saw that the coachman was not driving in the direction of Chu, so he asked:

"Engong...... Engong, where are you taking us? ”

Nie Xian replied:

"I'll take you to Puyang, Song State, now that the Qi-Chu border passage has been blocked, you can't go, I can only take you from Song State to Chu State by detour!"

Qu Yuan replied:

"Okay, then thank you benefactor for saving our lives, as long as you take us back to Chu State, our Chu State will never treat you badly!"

As a result, the carriage traveled for a few more days, and after arriving at Suiyang, the capital of the Song Dynasty, for some rest, Nie Xian took Qu Yuan and Xiong to the northwest.

At this time, Qu Yuan in the car found that the direction of the car was not Chu State, and asked Nie Xian a little puzzled:

"Benefactor, didn't you say that you took us back to the Chu Kingdom? You should go southwest, why is this direction going to the girder? ”

Nie Xian replied:

"Now the Chu-Song border is too chaotic, and the carriages and horses can't walk, so I can only take you to Daliang first, and then turn to Xinzheng, South Korea, and go south!"

When the carriage and horse arrived at Xiangling in the territory of Wei, Qu Yuan seemed to find that something was wrong, and after discussing it with the crown prince Xiong Heng, he questioned Nie Xian together:

"Benefactor, you rescued us from the Qi State, but brought us to the Wei State, what are your intentions?"

Nie Xian stopped the carriage, and after walking down, he said to the two people in the car:

"Forget it, I won't hide it from you, my name is Nie Xian, the King of Wei is my benefactor, and I sent you to Wei to repay the King of Wei's kindness to me Nie Xian."

Qu Yuan and Xiong Heng jumped out of the carriage and were about to flee, when they suddenly surrounded countless Wei troops, Nie Xian said a few words to the Wei generals, these Wei soldiers immediately arrested Qu Yuan and Xiong Heng, and Nie Xian also drove back to Qi in a carriage and horse.

Guiling of the State of Wei.

At this time, Wei Si was discussing with Han Taicang how to stop the Qi army in Guiling, when suddenly bad news came.

I saw a South Korean official hurriedly running over to Han Cang and said:

"Prince...... Prince...... Prince, our king has died...... Our king is dead! ”

As soon as Prince Han heard the news, his face turned pale and he fainted directly to the ground.

Due to the death of King Han, the Han army had no choice but to withdraw its troops and return to China under the leadership of Prince Cang, which caused Wei Si to be under great pressure at the moment.

Because the chasing Qi army was already less than twenty miles away from Guiling, and Wei Si had originally negotiated a decisive battle with Qi in Guiling with Prince Han.

Now that the king of Han has died and South Korea has withdrawn its troops, how can the hundreds of thousands of Wei troops who are now able to organize a defense in an instant and block the elite of the 300,000 Qi army, not to mention that Zhang Yi's Qin army attacking the Lu and Song armies has not come from any news.

At this moment, Wei Si could only follow the advice of Su Qin and Mo Shang to retreat to Daliang, summon the Xiangling and Xiuyu armies, and come to a decisive battle with the Qi army under Daliang City.

As soon as Wei Si returned to the Great Liang Palace, Ru Er escorted the prince of Chu and Zuotu Qu Yuan to meet him, which was naturally something Wei Si did not expect.

Wei Si saw that the two of them were tied up in his palace by Wuhuada, so he personally walked over and untied the ropes for the two of them, and then reproached Ru Ear on the side:

"What's going on? Can you treat the prince of Chu and Lord Zuo like this? ”

Ru Er explains:

"King, if this is not the case, Prince Chu and Lord Zuo Tu really don't want to come to see you, the King!"

After Wei Si untied the ropes of Xiong Heng and Qu Yuan, he saw that both of them looked dissatisfied, so he said to them with a smile:

"Two distinguished guests, our Wei State has really neglected the two, and the widow has just returned from the battlefield, I really don't know that the two distinguished guests have actually come to our beam!"

Qu Yuan sneered:

"Hmph, King Wei, don't pretend to say such things, aren't you the one who instructed someone to bring us to the beam?"

Xiong Heng also said angrily:

"Yes, you Wei State will play these indiscriminate methods!"

Wei Si, as the monarch of Wei State, was naturally inconvenient to explain, and Ru Er next to him came out and said to the two of them:

"Our king didn't know that you were brought to Daliang at all, and I heard that you were originally hostages in Qi State, and after hearing the news that Qi envoy was killed by your Chu State, he was afraid, so he wanted to escape, and when he was about to be arrested when he went out of the city, a friend of our king named Nie Xian kindly saved you, if Nie Xian didn't save you, do you think you can still live in our Daliang Palace?"

Qu Yuan's tone aggravated:

"However, this Nie Xian brought us to the Wei State and brought the Great Liang, wasn't it at the behest of your king?"

Ru Er continues to explain:

"I have just said that our king does not know that you were brought to the Great Liang, and that Nie Xianyi is indeed thinking about the king, and saved you and sent you to our Wei country, you think about it yourself, should you be grateful to our king? And your Chu State has been plotting against our Wei State, Zuo disciple, prince, do you dare to say that this time the Qi State and Song Lu attacked our Wei State, isn't it your Chu State instigated? ”

Qu Yuan had nothing to say for a while.

When Xiong Heng saw this, he said:

"Since this is the case, then we will thank King Wei for his kindness to us, and hope that King Wei can let us go back to Chu now, and we will definitely repay your country when the time comes!"

After listening to the words of Prince Chu, Wei Si asked:

"Prince of Chu, you said that you would repay our Wei State well, didn't you pull your Chu State soldiers to attack my Wei State as a reward?"

Xiong Heng explains:

"King Wei, of course this is not the case, if I return to the state of Chu, I must persuade my father to make friends with your country, and then send ten carts of pearls and jade to your country as a life-saving grace to the prince and our Zuo disciples!"

Wei Si smiled lightly:

"Your Chu State said that you want to make friends with our Wei State, but no one can believe it, and your Chu State is now reorganizing its troops to crusade against our Wei, Qin, and Han Kingdoms? Therefore, the widow thinks that at this time, the prince and Lord Zuo should still play in our Daliang for a few days and then go back to the Chu State, the widow still has to deal with the things that the Qi State is committing, so there is no time to entertain the two, but the widow believes that Mr. Ruer will not treat you badly! ”

After all, Wei Si is now even more worried about the attack of the Qi army, and he has no intention of dealing with the matter of Prince Chu and Qu Yuan, after all, the news has just come before, and the Qi army has broken through the Guiling Road and gone straight to Daliang.
