A group of people rushed over, Zhou Yuanbin no longer had the heart to be lucky, sat on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "As long as I am let live, the money of the Zhou family is your ......" was anxious for a while, and forgot to say He Rongyu.

"Help!" The first one shouted, probably only saying such a sentence in the Central Plains, and he would cut it with a knife.

Zhou Yuanbin was so frightened that he couldn't move, couldn't hide, and watched the blade slash towards his head.

Suddenly there was a horn sound outside, and the people in the post station were all stunned, because they could hear that this was the horn that He Rongbu was used to, and the sound was different from that of the Central Plains.

The sound of the trumpet continued, as if to give orders and threats.

Xu Ji took the opportunity to pull Zhou Yuanbin away a little, and the person holding the knife listened attentively, but he didn't notice it.

The sound of the horn stopped, and a clear voice came from outside the hospital, saying He Rongyu, Xu Ji couldn't understand it, and Zhou Yuanbineng couldn't help but cry with joy.

The knife bearer looked at the target and hesitated.

Zhou Yuanbin hurriedly uttered a series of words of He Rong, and the person who raised the knife spat on the ground, turned around and walked away, joined his companions, and hurriedly walked out of the gate.

"Lift me up." Zhou Yuanbin said, although he escaped death, his whole body was still sore.

The servant couldn't move, so Xu Ji picked him up, "Someone came to save you?" ”

"It's the king of the right capital......

"Shan Yu's younger brother?"

Zhou Yuanbin nodded, and walked hard, the fire in the post station was already very strong, and the servants also got up and followed, Xu Ji suddenly turned around, and ran in while the flames had not yet engulfed the whole room, and when he came out again, he had an extra cloak in his hand.

Outside the post station, a group of cavalry was parked, carrying a large number of torches, illuminating a dozen corpses on the ground, and in the distance there was the sound of horses' hooves, apparently the murderer leaving unhindered.

Zhou Yuanbin pushed Xu Ji away, walked a few steps quickly, came to a horse, hugged the knight's leg, and said a lot of words excitedly.

The post station couldn't live, someone brought horses to Zhou Yuanbin and Xu Ji, and everyone galloped to Xiangyang.

Zhou Yuanbin was stunned, followed closely behind the king of the right capital, and kept talking.

The king of Youdu is not very old, it seems that he is only sixteen or seventeen years old, and when Xu Ji stayed by Shan Yu's side, he had never seen him, thinking that he had just rushed over.

The king of the right capital did not speak much, but only cared about riding a horse.

Zhou Yuanbin opened his mouth too much, and poured a cold wind into his stomach, so he had to shut up, slow down, and gradually go hand in hand with Xu Ji.

After nearly an hour of night travel, the team stopped and entered a small camp that had been built, Zhou Yuanbin was called by the king of the right capital to talk about things, and Xu Ji stayed in an empty tent to rest.

Another hour passed, it was already dawn outside, Zhou Yuanbin finally came over, his expression changed, and he couldn't tell whether he was happy or worried, "Is Mr. Xu resting well?" ”

"It's fine."

"Hmm......" Zhou Yuanbin was silent, Xu Ji didn't ask, after a long time, Zhou Yuanbin made up his mind and said: "This matter has to be Mr. Xu's decision." ”

"I don't even know what's going on."

"The first group of people is indeed He Rong's soldiers pretending, and they are indeed sent by the Middle Palace, who want to kill you and me."

"I can guess that."

"Hey, I should have understood a long time ago, the Middle Palace didn't care about the word 'Zhou family' at all, and when the prisoners were held in the post station, I still wondered, why did I stay here if I didn't send them to the camp? It turned out that it was to create an excuse, and I actually ......" Zhou Yuanbin touched the scars on his face, indignant.

"Why did the king of the right capital come to save you? He was one of the three adults who contacted Zhou's army? ”

Zhou Yuanbin immediately shook his head, "Of course not, how can the King of the Right Capital oppose Shan Yu?" He had been staying outside the town, but had just arrived more than half a month ago - Shan Yu was seriously injured. ”

Zhou Yuanbin's last sentence was unclear, and Xu Ji hummed in surprise.

"The news just came that Shan Yu was hit by an arrow on the battlefield, and his injuries were not light."

"In front of you or behind you?"

"What do you mean?"

"In front of him is the enemy army who releases arrows, and behind him is his own people sneak attack."

"In front of you, of course...... I don't know, Zhonggong has already set out to see Shan Yu, and when he leaves, he issued a secret order to get rid of you and me. ”

"Why doesn't the king of the right capital go to see Shan Yu?"

"The Middle Palace didn't allow him to go, and asked him to stay in Xiangyang, and someone told him the secret order of the Middle Palace, and he personally brought troops to save me." Zhou Yuanbin's tone revealed a hint of pride.

"What about the war? Who wins and who loses? Xu Ji is most concerned about this matter.

"Since Shan Yu didn't retreat, he should be undefeated, right?" Zhou Yuanbin's mind was not on this, and he stepped forward and said: "The situation is like this, in case it is ...... He Rong's ministry needs to immediately elect a new single Yu, so as not to collapse the whole army, and the middle palace will take away the two sons, the intention is very obvious, but the two sons are young, and many He Rong adults are more optimistic about the king of the right capital. ”

"When Qiangjian succeeded to the throne, he was opposed, what do those people think?"

"It's worthy of Mr. Xu, as soon as he opened his mouth, he got to the point, although Lao Shan Yu's faction failed to compete for the throne, but the power is still not small, the three adults I contacted belong to this faction, and they hope that Lao Shan Yu's grandson Zuo Xianwang will succeed to the throne."

"So the king of the right capital came to save you, and I hope you will make peace in the middle and win the support of the faction of the king of the left xian?"

Zhou Yuanbin nodded, "But I know that I can't afford such a big thing, so I came to ask Mr. Xu for advice." ”

Xu Ji thought for a while, "Can the king of the right capital speak the Central Plains?" ”

Zhou Yuanbin shook his head, "He is not interested in everything in the Central Plains, and he came here by order to enter the Central Plains." ”

"Shan Yu must have been plotted."

"It is estimated that it is someone from the middle palace, and she will definitely hide this matter."

"No, on the contrary, the middle palace will publicize this matter, and then avenge Qiang Arm Shan Yu."

"Is the thief crying out to catch the thief? To whom does she take revenge? ”

Xu Ji was silent, and Zhou Yuanbin himself understood, "That's right, whoever wants to win the position of Shan Yu, she will frame it." What should the king of the right capital do? What am I going to do? Help or not? Although King Zuoxian's faction is very close to our Zhou family, it is difficult to get them to give up their position. ”

"How is the king of the right capital? Can you listen to the advice? ”

"How to say it, the king of the right capital is a real He Rong person, he likes to ride horses, shoot hunting, and has no interest in other things, of course, fighting for the position of Shan Yu does not count, this is not interest, but self-preservation, in this matter, he can listen to advice."

"Very good, then persuade him to openly support the two sons of the middle palace."

"Huh? If you don't fight, just admit defeat? ”

"This is called retreating as advance, if you die, the three parties compete for the position, and the king of the right capital seems to be the weakest."

"He is indeed the weakest, he is not too old, not too small, not long after becoming the king of the right capital, his status is not high, he is not low, anyway, it is more embarrassing, he wants to ......" Zhou Yuanbin lowered his voice, "He wants to know why Zhonggong wants to kill me." ”

"You told him?"

"I didn't tell the truth, I said that the middle palace was afraid that you and I would take refuge in King Jin, so I wanted to kill people, and the king of Youdu was a little disappointed."

"Zhou Senjun did the right thing, don't tell him yet. If the king of the right capital is really willing to listen to the persuasion - what he is doing now is wrong, not to compete with the middle palace, but to be false and wronged, and lead the succession battle to the middle palace and the king of Zuoxian, and sit on the mountain to watch the tiger fight. ”

"You can't keep watching, can you?"

"The middle palace has been prepared for a long time, and it currently has an advantage, and when the faction of King Zuo Xian finds itself invincible, it is necessary to find allies, and then the king of the right capital and Zhou will be able to come forward."

Zhou Yuanbin nodded again and again, and lowered his voice again, "Mr. Xu's plan is beneficial to the King of the Right Capital, but our Zhou family is more familiar with the King of Zuo Xian......"

"Once King Zuo Xian and King Youdu feel the need to form an alliance, it is when Zhou joins the army to show his skills, which side he is willing to choose is Shanyu, it is your business, and outsiders cannot interfere."

Zhou Yuanbin laughed twice, touched the scars on his face, and reached out to touch it twice, "I understand, but the king of Youdu has already offended the ...... of the middle palace by rescuing you and me."

"This is simple, the middle palace is also the Zhou family, and the king of the right capital only needs to claim that he heard that someone was going to assassinate Zhou to join the army, so he came to save people for the middle palace."

"Hehe, others may believe it, but Zhonggong doesn't believe it."

"It's also simple, let the king of the right capital send us to the middle palace."

Zhou Yuanbin was taken aback, and immediately said, "If I don't go, isn't that death?" ”

"On the contrary, Zhonggong wants to blame others for being killed, and will never openly kill people, the closer you are to her, the safer it may be."

"That's why Zhonggong only designed to kill people last night...... But it's more risky to stay by the side of the middle palace, right? ”

"Risk, with the current situation of Zhou joining the army, where to hide is not an adventure?"

Zhou Yuanbin sighed, "What's going on, when Zhonggong revealed everything to me, I thought I was trusted, but it turned out that I was just using it for a while." Well, I'll go to the king of the right capital and make it clear. ”

It didn't take long for Zhou Yuanbin to arrive with the king of the right capital, and the king of the right capital looked at Xu Ji carefully, and then said a string of words.

Zhou Yuanbin said: "The king of the right capital thanks Mr. Xu for his advice, whether you use it or not, you have made a contribution, what reward do you want?" Mr. Xu doesn't have to be polite, he just wants to open his mouth, He Rongren is not taboo about this kind of thing. ”

"I want Princess Fonde." Xu Jidao.

"Mr. Xu really dares to ask for it, but the princess wants to give it to Shan Yu, not in the hands of the king of the right capital......"

"When I checked into the camp, I saw the vehicle, this is the camp of Kou Daogu, and Princess Fangde is also here."

Zhou Yuanbin was stunned for a moment and said with a smile: "Mr. Xu's eyes don't let go of anything. ”

Seeing that the two of them were talking, the king of Youdu opened his mouth to ask, and Zhou Yuanbin replied respectfully.

The king of the right capital nodded, and said again, Zhou Yuanbin said: "The king of the right capital said that he has no right to hand over the princess to you now, but he can take the princess to Xiangyang and wait for him...... If all goes well, he has the power. ”

"Okay." Xu Jidao.

The king of Youdu understood this word, stepped forward to hold Xu Ji's arm, and said something in an impassioned tone.

"The king of the right capital is swearing, Mr. Xu can trust him, and He Rongren values his oath and will never break his promise."

"I believe it."

The king of the right capital left, Zhou Yuanbin saw him off, and came back soon, "Let's go to the Middle Palace with Kou Daogu later." ”

"Hmm."

Zhou Yuanbin suddenly laughed, "I know that Mr. Xu's real purpose is to send He Rongren back to Saiwai, but I haven't figured it out now, what are you going to do?" ”

"I didn't figure it out either." Xu Ji smiled, paused for a moment, and said, "Wait a little longer, and the situation will be clear." ”
