"Hui Ling, Ling Yin, our army went to the west of the city last night, and there are no horses here."

A person beside Mi Xiao said to Mi Xiao tremblingly, and Mi Xiao remembered that he transferred his soldiers and horses to the east of the city last night to surround the Lian Min Qi army, where is there still a soldier here.

The irascible Mi Xiao had no choice but to sigh, and he suddenly found that many people around him were casting strange glances at him.

What did the 100,000 Chu army do in the east of the city?

There is an army of 90,000 of the eldest son.

Did the Chu army want to sneak attack the army of the eldest son? That's the army of my Qi country.

"Mr. Gu, can you see it?"

In the team, Fang Hengxin squeezed in front of Gu Daoyuan, seeing that his gaze was still on the place where the group of cavalry had disappeared.

He could see that Gu Daoyuan's eyes were full of remorse, doubt, and unwillingness.

"I knew that this son was so powerful, I shouldn't have pushed him to the side of the Qi people in the first place."

Gu Daoyuan listened to Fang Hengxin's words, then turned his head to look at Fang Hengxin, and after a long time, Fang Hengxin smiled slightly in confusion, and said slowly:

"Don't worry, if he stays in Qi for a short time, he will either be killed by Xiao Ziyan, or by Xiao Zishuo, or by the people of Qin, or by the people of Chu.

In short, he chose a path of no return. ”

The puzzled Fang Hengxin was about to ask Gu Daoyuan about it, but he heard a quarrel suddenly break out in the distance, and then, something that made him, Gu Daoyuan, and all the people of Qin and Shu were dumbfounded appeared in front of them.

The Qi and Chu people in the funeral procession fought like a fight in the countryside and the countryside.

After all, everyone in Qi is more powerful, although the people of Chu including Mi Xiao are strong, but where are the opponents of Qi people who are several times their own, as soon as the two sides fight, the people of Chu are rained fists and stones and retreat again and again, after Mi Xiao was also hit on the head by a stone, the people of Chu fled in embarrassment in the stunned envoys of Qin and Shu.

After a long nightfall, the funeral procession entered the city of Tokyo in a sparse manner under the surprised eyes of the soldiers defending the city.

Under the auspices of Xiao Kun, a forbidden army of about 10,000 people went out of the city to the place where it was attacked in the afternoon, firstly to gather the corpses of the killed Qi army, and secondly, to explore the movements of the cavalry.

The banquet prepared for the officials and envoys in the funeral procession in the Qinglong Hall no longer had the heart to come to eat, Xiao Qian sat alone on the right side, looking at the empty Qinglong Hall silently.

"Big brother, do you think it will be done by Lian Min?"

Xiao Kun, who rushed into the Blue Dragon Palace, stood respectfully behind Xiao Qian and asked his eldest brother.

Xiao Qian did not directly answer his brother's question, but asked in a trembling voice:

"How the emissaries of various countries reacted."

Xiao Kun hurriedly said: "Mi Xiao suffered a big loss today, he once threatened to lead his troops into Tokyo to bloody the Xiao family before fleeing.

However, Yong Shuzhao also said on the spot that he would lead 30,000 athletes of the Qin State to fight to defend Tokyo.

Even the state of Shu expressed support for the state of Qi.

Therefore, the old man didn't dare to make too many mistakes, so he left a few cruel words and went to the military camp of the Chu State army, and did not return to Tokyo.

I have already sent people out of the city to investigate, and soon the news of people from all walks of life will be gathered.

At present, except for the 100,000 forbidden troops in the city, except for 10,000 people who have been sent out of the city to investigate the movements of the cavalry, the rest of the soldiers and horses have been sent by me to defend the city at the city gates. ”

Xiao Qian listened to Xiao Kun's words, and nodded to indicate that he had done a good job.

After a moment of silence, he said slowly:

"Zishuo has been rescued from the prison."

When Xiao Kun heard this, he was shocked and said: "When was you rescued, when I returned to the city, I didn't get any news that someone had robbed the prison." ”

Xiao Qian smiled, and he couldn't see his joy or anger, so he handed the tea in his hand to Xiao Kun, who was standing on the side, and said as if he was naturally talking to himself:

"If I'm not mistaken, they're saving people from the prison right now."

After saying this, seeing that Xiao Kun, who suddenly woke up, was about to turn around and go out, Xiao Qian said to the person who was leaving:

"Ah Kun."

Ah Kun, what a familiar and unfamiliar title, Xiao Kun has not been called that since the day of the weak crown, no one has called him that for nearly thirty years.

Xiao Kun stood stunned, he seemed to hear infinite words from the three words that came out of his brother's mouth.

"Ah Kun, let them do it, it's too late for you to go now, just sit here with your eldest brother and be quiet."

When will we brothers be able to rest quietly for a while?

There is always someone in charge of Daqi, but the person in charge can't always be us old people who are about to die. ”

Hearing Xiao Qian's tone, he was a little discouraged, Xiao Kun turned around and said, "But, but Zishuo has done such a big wrong thing, how can he be worthy of the position of the king." ”

Xiao Qian shook his head, looked at Xiao Kun still holding the tea he handed over in his hand, and smiled bitterly.

"Sit down and have a drink, there are some things we shouldn't be in charge of.

On the night Zishuo was framed by Mizhu's mother and son and third brother, didn't you beat your chest and be discouraged for a while, now that Zishuo has a chance, why do you want to stop him. ”

As Xiao Qian spoke slowly, Xiao Kun's hands couldn't help but tremble.

"It's different, it's different, although Zishuo was framed, but what Zishuo did that night has been seen in our eyes, and what should have happened has happened, if Zishuo can't be punished, what face do we have to see the ancestors and the second brother.

Mizhu poisonous woman, you should be killed, you should be killed. ”

"Hehehehe."

Xiao Qian looked at Xiao Kun's crazy appearance, and laughed to himself, there seemed to be some different emotions in that smile, complex and deep.

"Like you, the events of that night also made me disheartened, but there is no endless road, but Zishuo has capable manpower to turn the tide, it seems that I am hopeful of Zhongxing.

Fourth brother, the people who knew about it that night, I calculated that there would never be more than ten people, and once Zishuo ascended the throne, he would never appeal to others about this matter, so I wanted to help Zishuo. ”

Speaking of this, Xiao Kun suddenly frowned, and he looked carefully at the eldest brother who was speaking more and more weakly, and instantly understood.

Xiao Kun walked into Xiao Qian's side and slowly squatted down.

"Big brother, you can rest, Zishuo is a good boy, I will help him become the king."

When Xiao Qian heard the words of the fourth brother, he smiled lightly.

He stretched out his hand with great effort, and gently swayed on Xiao Kun's hair who lowered his head.

"Tick"

Xiao Qian's hand finally fell on the bluestone slab of the Blue Dragon Palace.

"Big brother, you're too tired in this life, rest big brother. I'll do the rest. ”

"Lord Xiao, there was a sudden assassin in Mrs. Mi's mansion, and more than 20 people in the mansion did not survive, and Mrs. Mi also."

Xiao Kun shouted at the soldiers he sent out to investigate Mrs. Mi's mansion: "How is Mrs. Mi? ”

"Mrs. Mi is also in a different place. The head is missing. The soldier replied to Xiao Kun's question in a rather weak tone.

When Xiao Kun heard this, he once again recalled his eldest brother's dying smile in his heart, and whispered to the soldier, "Got it" and turned around and walked out of the Blue Dragon Palace.

"Big brother, is this your congratulatory gift to Zishuo?"

Thirty miles east of Tokyo, there is a small mountain, which rises abruptly and beautifully in the endless plains east of Tokyo.

The name of that mountain is called Jiaoshan, and according to legend, there was once a snake in this mountain who practiced for thousands of years and finally became a Jiao, swimming into the yellow water in the eyes of tens of thousands of people in Tokyo.

Since then, people have called this mountain Jiaoshan, and the top of the mountain has also been built as a Jiaoshen temple.

It is precisely because of the beautiful legends and temples of this mountain that no one has come to cultivate the land in the mountains for hundreds of years, so that the mountains are densely forested and quiet.

In the middle of the night on the day of Duke Qi's burial, a team of people and horses took advantage of the night to come to the foot of Jiaoshan Mountain.

"Goo, goo."

Suddenly, there was a cry of owls in the forest, and the group of soldiers and horses stopped, and a soldier who was good at ventriloquism also learned to call a few times, but the call was long and short, and seemed to be quite regular.

The soldier screamed a few times and then stopped making a sound, and in the middle of the night, Jiaoshan returned to quiet. And the team of soldiers and horses slowly walked along the mountain path towards the mountain.

In about half an hour, a temple with candles appeared in front of the team.

Among these horses, a young man with a somewhat stumbling step walked out slowly, and walked slowly towards a young man standing in front of the temple.

"Brother Zishuo."

"Hibiscus".

When Xiao Zishuo and Xiao Jin suddenly quickened their pace and hugged each other tightly, the candle flame in the small temple dedicated to Jiaoshen suddenly flickered as if it was blown by the wind.

After a period of greetings, Xiao Jin led Xiao Zishuo and his wife into the temple, and Xiao Zishuo was sure that he had been rescued, so he howled and cried without any scruples.

"Xiao Jin, I was killed, I was killed."

Xiao Zishuo was like a wronged child, and kept explaining to Xiao Jin, and Xiao Jin helped Xiao Zishuo wipe away the tears in his eyes, patted him on the shoulder and said:

"Brother Zishuo, don't cry, I know that it was Mrs. Mi who harmed you that night, I promised you to help you sit on the throne of the monarch, so with me, Brother Zishuo can rest assured."

Xiao Jin patted Xiao Zishuo on the back and comforted him while opening his mouth, but after saying Fang Cai's words, he suddenly felt Xiao Zishuo tremble.

He thought that Xiao Zishuo was still afraid, but Xiao Jin didn't see it, Xiao Zishuo's eyes not only had panic, but also a trace of imperceptible fierceness.

Xiao Zishuo saw it and saw it clearly, on the tribute platform in front of the statue of Jiaoshen behind Xiao Jin, there were two heads, one with fear on his face, full of silver hair, and the other with an indifferent face, but he looked like a young man.

At dawn the next day, Mi Xiao led 100,000 Chu troops to the city of Tokyo, and he said to Xiao Kun at the head of Tokyo that he wanted Qi to cede land to Chu and pay compensation, and at the same time executed Xiao Zishuo and declared Xiao Ziyan as the prince.

Otherwise, he will attack the capital of Qi in one fell swoop and wash Tokyo in blood.

After the Chu army was noisy for a day, the 30,000 soldiers and horses of the Qin State also came to the side of the Chu army, and they set up camp in front of the Chu people.

Obviously, Uncle Yong's call must be done.

He sent a letter of state to Mi Xiao, saying that if the Chu army attacked the city, the Qin army would attack the Chu army together with the soldiers and horses of the Qi State.
