"General, you are stubborn, crusading against the tyrannical Qin, and renewing the Chu State Sheji, this credit is enough for the king; And you will have to command the princes of the world in the future, how can you serve the people without being the king? So we implore you to set yourself up as the king of Chu! The three elders in charge of education in Chen County and the local heroes jointly suggested to Tang Ning.

Tang Ning didn't know if these guys had the intention of killing, but he knew that Chen Sheng in history was criticized by a large group of experts and scholars in later generations because he followed their advice, and was identified as one of the biggest reasons for the failure of Chen Sheng's uprising.

So Tang Ning waved his hand and refused: "Forget this, I am not a descendant of the Chu royal family, how can I call myself the king of Chu?" This name is not right, and the purpose of my uprising is not to be the king and hegemon, but so that everyone can get rid of the rule of the tyrannical Qin and live a good life, so as long as you change to a wise lord. ”

"General, if you are concerned about the inheritance of the surname, then you can establish yourself as the king of Chen and establish the state of Chen, isn't this justified. Moreover, the descendants of the Chu clan are not easy to find for a while, in case you delay your great cause because of this, it will be more than worth the loss. An old man continued to persuade without giving up.

And Tang Ning still refused: "Chen Guo also has its own inheritance, isn't Chen County, where we are now, the territory of Chen Guo." As for the descendants of the Chu clan, I can always find them if I look for them slowly, and my main job recently is to train the troops, so I think it shouldn't be delayed. ”

Seeing Tang Ning's resolute attitude, everyone had to give up the persuasion, say goodbye and leave, but after leaving, several people actually got together again, and the old man who had been trying to persuade Tang Ning just now frowned and asked everyone: "Do you think this Chen Sheng really doesn't want to be the king, or is he pretending to excuse himself and waiting for us to persuade him again?" ”

A big man beside him replied without hesitation: "Old Ming, I dare to guarantee that this guy must be pretending, I don't believe it, he is a guy with mud legs who is willing to miss such a good opportunity to be the king." must have been waiting for us to persuade him a few more times, and then he agreed half-pushed, the only difference is to be the king of Chu or the king of Chen or some other king. ”

"But you can't say that, haven't you heard of people, this Chen Sheng once said such bold words as early as when he was still farming, and he dared to rebel against Qin, and he really succeeded, do you think he can be an ordinary person?" Another old man retorted.

Dahan disagreed: "Old Ming, do you even believe this kind of thing? This is obviously a nonsense made up by Chen Sheng in order to bewitch his subordinates, so his subordinates also said that he can summon tigers, do you believe this? Besides, why did he dare to rebel? It's not because he is dead whether he rebels or not, so it is better to rebel and fight, but he was lucky enough to make it happen, but he can't be happy for a few days, and he will die as soon as the army returns. ”

"That's true, if he really has this kind of spell, how can he be reduced to farming for people, and even be arrested as a people's husband?"

Dahan clapped his hands and said proudly: "Is this the truth?" Then he turned his head and asked Xiang Minglao: "By the way, Minglao, are you ready for this follow-up plan?" But don't wait for the imperial army to really come, but we can't get this Chen Sheng's head, then all this effort will be done in vain. ”

Ming Lao replied confidently: "Don't worry about this, this time I plan to sacrifice Rou Ji, I don't believe that any man can bear it with her posture, and then put some people around Chen Sheng through her, so Chen Sheng's head is not in our hands at any time?" ”

"Rouhime?! This、This is too cheap that Chen Sheng! Dahan muttered with pity on his face.

Ming Lao glared at him: "I can't bear to let the child trap the wolf, how can I send a vulgar fan to live in this Chen Sheng in confusion?" Are you still the mud leg who farms the land for people? He now has tens of thousands of people and several cities under his hands, can he have fewer women? To be honest, even Johime and I were a little worried, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to compare to the woman he got from somewhere else! ”

Just when Ming Lao and the others were secretly plotting to deal with Tang Ning, his general Ge Ying was cautiously asking him, "General, dare to ask if what you just told them is the truth?" ”

"What are the words?" Tang Ning asked a little puzzled.

"It is to establish the descendants of the Chu clan as the main sentence." Ge Ying lowered his head and replied softly.

Tang Ning nodded and replied, "Of course it's true, why am I lying to them about this kind of thing?" Why do you think I want to be king of my own right? ”

"It is normal to set yourself up as a king based on your merits, general." Ge Ying replied cautiously.

Before he could finish speaking, Tang Ning interrupted a little impatiently: "Don't worry, I really don't have this in mind." ”

Seeing Tang Ning say this, Ge Ying finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then continued: "If that's the case, then general, I really know a descendant of the Chu clan. ”

"What?! Do you know the descendants of the Chu family?! Downing asked in disbelief.

"When I fled a few years ago, I met a person named Xiangjiang, and he told me in private that he was actually the descendant of the King of Chu." Ge Ying hurriedly replied.

Hearing Ge Ying say this, Tang Ning thought about it, speaking of which Chen Sheng killed Ge Ying, a hero who started with him, because of this Xiangjiang, at first Chen Sheng claimed to restore the state of Chu and find the descendants of the king of Chu to be the monarch, but in fact, he just said it casually, but he didn't expect the solid-eyed Ge Ying to take it seriously, so after reuniting with Xiangjiang, an old friend, he made his own decision to make Xiangjiang the king of Chu.

As a result, when he received Chen Sheng's military order again, he found out that Chen Sheng had secretly established the state of Zhang Chu and established himself as the king of Chu, so in desperation, Ge Ying had to cut Xiangjiang with tears and send the head to Chen Sheng to apologize, but unfortunately it was too late, coupled with the slander of Hu Wu, the minister next to Chen Sheng, and finally Ge Ying was transferred back to Chen County by Chen Sheng and killed.

PS: Could it be that today's readers and friends have such a high tolerance for plagiarism? A large number of copies of the original text of the Water Margin and almost all the plots are copied from the new book of the Water Margin, and now it is so popular that it is not wanted, so it seems that my "1885 British Tycoon" died more unjustly than Dou E!
