On the afternoon of this day, the Wu Palace, which was constantly playing and dancing, finally became clean, and then the King of Qi came out of the palace and shouted angrily, and Mu Lingguan was lost.

"Tell the king, the minister thought that this battle was because Tian won and rebelled against the enemy, and the Chu people wore the clothes and armor of our Qi army, and suddenly attacked and seized the city; The Chu people have a stone throwing device, and when this machine is fired, the walls are all broken......"

The general Tian Luo is reporting in detail the reason for the loss of Mu Ling Pass, the more the King of Qi listens, the more angry he becomes, seeing that he is about to attack, the minister of the country Hou Sheng hurriedly said: "The minister thought that the general was derelict in his duty for this war, and now the Chu people have seized Mu Ling Pass, and Linzi is not guaranteed, and the minister asks the king to return to the capital quickly, and the Wu Palace is already in danger." ”

Hou Sheng said that the king of Qi changed his color in danger, and the Wu Palace was in the northwest of Zibo City, although it was only a few miles away from Zibo, but this was another palace after all. His anger instantly turned to horror, and he said, "The Chu army is marching so fast? ”

"Tell the king, the Chu army is light and profitable, and the death is like a fluttering wind, and Xiang Yan, the general of Chu, led the army into the Qin realm for more than 200 miles when he fought with the Qin State last year, pulling out the city and killing people, and he was unstoppable. The minister asked the king to return to the capital immediately, in addition to quickly summoning the soldiers of the counties to the king of Qin, he should also send envoys into Qin as soon as possible, and ask the Qin people to send troops to attack Chu, so that our country can recapture Muling Pass. "Hou Sheng can be a Xiangbang, he is not an incompetent person, and everyone nodded again and again when he said something, but he did not say that he would send troops to recapture Muling Pass.

"Hurry, hurry! Get back to the capital quickly. "Forty-seven years ago, King Qi Min was killed by Chu General Naoya, and his father King Qi Xiang was thus able to ascend the throne as king. On the same day, the envoys who went to Qin for help hurried out of the city and hurried to Xianyang.

In fact, according to the previous plan, the Qin and Wei armies should have attacked Chu a long time ago, but because of the sudden fainting of the Empress Dowager Huayang, the war machine was shut down and stopped in an instant, and Zhao Zheng, the king of Qin, as the author of '', did not feel that there was anything wrong with the machine stopping, but the Qi people and Wei people who were bound by the machine went crazy.

"Tomorrow, it's tomorrow again...... when will General Xin go tomorrow?" In Changping County, Wei Xiangzi Ji came to question Qin General Xin Wu. He came to power because he was pro-Qin, and if Qin did not attack Chu and negotiated peace with Chu, then his position as prime minister would not be guaranteed. "Now Wei Chu is 'handing' evil, but the general is sitting idly by, this is what the general said in the past to help me attack Chu?!"

"Before the Xianyang military order, the general will never attack Jing!" The summer was scorching, Xin Wu in armor was covered with sweat, and he scolded in his heart, but what could he do? Without the king's order, once the military power is transferred in violation of the order, it will be taken over by the prison army.

"Then when will Xianyang come to order?" Zi Ji asked, looking eager to kneel in front of Xin Wu.

"How will Ben know when Xianyang will come to order." Xin Wu said angrily.

"If the general only eats in Wei and does not cut down Chu, my Wei country will no longer send grain and grass into the camp." Ziji was also angry, this is considered an eviction order.

"You dare!" Xin Wu burst out, "Xianyang strictly ordered the general not to cut down Jing, but it didn't say that the general was not allowed to cut down Wei." If there is a shortage of grain and grass, I will pull out a city in your Wei country, and if there are ten carts missing, I will surround your beam! General Ben does what he says! ”

"You, you!" Ziji dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak. Qin helped Wei to conquer Chu, and all the cities pulled down belonged to Wei, but the grain, grass, and baggage needed to be provided by Wei. Zi Ji thought that as long as he controlled the grain and grass of the Qin army, the Qin people would not dare to do anything, but he didn't expect Xin Wu to dare to directly surround the beam. Sweat poured out of his forehead, and Ziji's vest was completely wet in an instant.

"Report ——!" The military officials shouted outside the shogunate. "Report to the general, Xianyang is coming."

As soon as he heard that Xianyang was coming to make Xin Wu no longer care about Zi Ji, Zi Ji also forgot the threat of Xin Wu just now, and looked at the envoy who had already entered the palace, who thought that Xin Wu didn't want him to stand in the shogunate, "Please Wei Xiang go out, I was going to deal with official business." ”

"What is the king's order?" Xin Wu, who drove away Ziji, asked urgently, "But is it allowed to cut down Jing?" ”

"The Empress Dowager Huayang is ill, and the king ordered the general Yu Jing to quickly pick up the 'female' son Mi Xuan." The royal envoy read the edict of the king from Xianyang in person, and then 'handed over' the edict to Xin Wu's hands. "General Xin, when I came, the national lieutenant told him that the 'female' son of Mi was a scribe of King Jing, and King Jing was in Chencheng."

"Huh?" Xin Wu was shocked, Wang Ling did not allow himself to fight, but to find someone by himself, and this person was still a scribe beside King Jing. Chen Cheng is not far away, but it is only a hundred miles, but the question is how can he pick up the 'female' son from King Jing's side? "This matter ......"

"The Empress Dowager Huayang loves the 'female' son, and if the 'female' son learns that the Empress Dowager is ill, she should return to Qin." The envoy laughed. "The king does not allow the general to cut down Jing, all because of the queen mother's illness, if the king of Jing knows about this, he is also willing to send the 'female' son out of the city."

"Dare to ask the envoy of the king, what happens after taking back the 'female' son?" Xin Wu asked the question he was most concerned about, that is, whether the war would be fought or not.

In order to attack Chu, Changping had hundreds of thousands of troops from Qin and Wei, and Shangcai and Jiyi also had 200,000 or 300,000 troops. The envoy smiled, a little embarrassed, and he said truthfully: "The king didn't say whether he cut down Jing or not, and the envoy didn't know what would happen after taking back the 'female' son." ”

After he finished speaking, he saw that Xin Wu was disappointed, and said: "General, the king is pure and filial, and he has to stop cutting down Jing when he sees that the queen mother is sick." 'Serving' such a virtuous king, we should be happy as courtiers. ”

"Yes, yes." Xin Wu smiled bitterly and had to nod, he felt that this Chu State would not be able to fight. When he sent the envoy out of the shogunate and then summoned the generals, all the generals all drooped their heads when they heard the words, and none of them had a good face.

"The king's order is like this, what can be done?" Xin Wu took a look at all the generals, especially the right general Li Xin, who was in the limelight, and the left general Wang Jian. "What do the two generals think?"

Last year, Li Xin led the Chinese army to retreat in a great defeat, and the king of Qin praised it, and he was regarded as the second by the Chinese people as Wu Anjun. Compared with him, General Zuo Wang Jian is just a smiling and unattractive old army leader, if he hadn't taken the 'door' road of Changping Jun when he was born as a fighting official, he might never be able to be a general in this life. When the master asked, Wang Jian consciously asked Li Xin to answer, but he kept silent.

"The king is pure and filial, if the queen mother asks the king not to cut down the Jing country, I'm afraid it will ......" Li Xin said bluntly, he wanted to avenge last year's revenge, but he didn't expect the queen mother to fall ill, and the king didn't want to cut Chu.

"What does General Wang think?" Xin Wu looked at Wang Jian's eyes with some disgust, but fortunately, Wang Jian was smiling and kind to others.

"The king is pure filial piety, this is the blessing of the Qin country, and the last general is willing to lead the left army to Chen to welcome the 'female' son back to Qin." Wang Jian's answer was unexpected, but thinking that he was the person of the right prime minister Changpingjun, and Changpingjun was from Chu, Xin Wu immediately retracted his surprise and said: "In this case, then ask General Wang to go." ”

"Respectfully!" Wang Jian waved Xin Wu, and then Li Xin and the others, and then walked out of the shogunate with a smile.

As soon as he left, Xin Wu sighed: "Jing people are really troublesome! ”

In later generations, Wang Jian and Bai Qi were listed as famous generals in the Warring States, but at this time, Wang Jian was just an ordinary county lieutenant in the Qin army, if it were not for the guarantee of Changping Jun, he said that he would not be able to be Xinwu's general Zuo. Xin Wu was a little disgusted with this person, but when Xiong Jing heard the name Wang Jian, he jumped up from the mat in shock.

"Is it really Wang Scissors?" He asked aloud as he glared at the comer.

"Tell the king, the person who came claimed to be Wang Scissors." The officers were a little overwhelmed.

"The king of the three horizontal kings, the scissors of scissors? His son's name is Wang Ben? "Xiong Jing didn't know that it was Wang Jian who was standing outside Chen Yingbei's 'gate' at this moment to lead the army to kill Xiang Yan and destroy the Chu State, he only knew that Wang Jian was one of the four famous generals of the Warring States.

The "Great King......" Qin army entered the country, and the rumors were loud, even if it was only a partial army. The king asked so carefully that the military officer was very anxious to answer, and he was eager to go out again and ask in detail.

"The king knows this king scissors?" The county prince Chen Jian is no longer as panicked and helpless as he was that day, at least the king is still in Chen Ying, and the king is in Chen Ying, so Chen Ying will not lose it.

"I know, I'm very familiar." Xiong Jing smiled. "Since Wang Jian is here, let's invite him into the city to narrate."

"Into the city?" Li shook his head, "King, the two armies are 'fighting', how can General Qin be willing to enter the city?" ”

"Tell the king, that Wang Jian took the envoy of the king of Qin, said yes, said yes, said yes ......" Just now the king jumped up when he heard the word Wang Jian, and the military officials thought about it before remembering the words of the Qin people, "It is said that the Empress Dowager Huayang of Qin State is sick and needs to take the 'female' son of Mi Xuan to return to Qin State quickly." ”

"Huh!?" Everyone in the Ming Hall was stunned, only Li He seemed excited, and he said loudly: "Tell the king, the minister knows why the Qin people don't kill me, then the king of Qin must be worried about the Empress Dowager Huayang's illness, so this is ......."

"What did you say!" Xiong Jing waved his sleeve and told him to shut up, staring at the officer and asking again. "How is Mi Xuan's 'female' son?"

"The Qin people said that the Empress Dowager Huayang was sick," the king's eyes were very scary, and the voice of the military officials became smaller and smaller, "I need to take the 'female' son back to Qin ......"

"Don't think!" Before the military officer finished speaking, he was rudely interrupted by Xiong Jing, "How can the Qin people say that they want people?" It's their ploy, right! This must be their ploy......"

"The Great King...... "Everyone was stunned, is a little 'girl' worthy of such a plan by the Qin people."

"The king, the Qin army is in the Wei realm and does not cut me, all because of the Empress Dowager Huayang's illness, if the king should instruct the 'female' son, so that he speaks to the Empress Dowager Huayang, please ask the Empress Dowager Huayang to persuade the King of Qin not to cut me," Li and is very 'excited', "In this way, the Qin people will retreat." ”

"One God bless, one God bless......" Chen Ji shuddered inexplicably and began to chant about the gods.

"Fart!" Xiong Jing glared at Li Er, "If you say that you will withdraw from the army, you will withdraw from the army, the Qin people will not die in my heart, how can they be willing, how can they be willing to ......?"

Xiong Jing roared and his eyes drifted to another place, which was Qi Xuan, who was dressed as a scribe. She was in the mezzanine room, and she came out to see when she heard a lot of noise in the Ming Hall, but who wanted to hear the news she didn't want to hear: the Empress Dowager Zu was sick.

"Empress Dowager Zu, Empress Dowager Zu ......" Mi Xuan Muran, she was already in tears before she opened her mouth, and when she opened her mouth, she choked again, and then stood there crying. Xiong Jing couldn't help but step forward and caress her back, not wanting to be hugged by her, crying even more miserably.

The king was hugged by the 'female' son and cried bitterly, and the courtiers present did not dare to take a closer look, but they all said in unison: "Please allow the king's 'female' son to return to Qin!" ”
