After Jing Ran slowly opened the letter, she was very surprised by the content she saw, and after a while, Jing Ran directly tore the letter in half, approached the lamp, and burned it directly.

"His Majesty the King of Chu has seen clearly?"

Zhao Yi looked at the surprised Jing Ran and said: "There are some things that are one thing to discuss with the court, and another thing to discuss in private. Just think about the matter of Princess Yue, if the king of my family is determined to use the princess and kiss, His Majesty the King of Chu will not be able to get to where he is now. ”

Zhao Yi paused, took a sip of tea and said, "Can the king understand what he means?" ”

After speaking, he squinted at Jing Ran.

How could Jing Ran not know, to put it more complicated, King Qin has a lot of money, to put it simply, if King Qin really wants to hand himself over to Jingyu, he won't even be able to go to the land of Qin. As for the matter of Gongsun Zhi, it was just an accident that allowed them to meet in Linjiang City, but Gongsun Zhi was cautious, so naturally Jing Ran's identity was not exposed.

And the matter of Xirong, King Qin also has his own intentions.

"Please thank King Qin for me."

After a while, Jing Ran said, "Then the current situation is that Princess Yue has to go back?" ”

Zhao Yi looked at Jing Ran with a smile on his face: "Yes, you are also the king of a country, and my princess is also a daughter, you two are like this, our king's face can't be hung up." ”

Jing Ran was silent, yes, what he has to do now is to establish his own power, and this King Qin said very clearly in the letter, Qin is willing to support in secret, and when the war between Qin and Zhao is over, he can lend Jing Ran five thousand soldiers, and all the weapons and armor will be taken by Qin State, and will threaten Northern Chu at the right time to help Jing Ran restore the country, and Jing Ran can propose to Qin State at any time, instead of being in a state similar to elopement now.

Why did King Qin think like this, this is the credit of Gongsun Zhi, Gongsun Zhi did not tell King Qin any big truth, but just told a story he had heard:

How profitable is a farmer?

How profitable is a trader?

How profitable is it to assist the monarch of a country to restore the country?

As soon as the King of Qin heard this, he understood what Gongsun Zhi meant, as long as he helped this fallen monarch to successfully restore the country, the interests of the Qin State could be maximized.

Jingyu's promises, compared to such a big profit, are like the profits of a farmer.

Moreover, don't think that Qin and Zhao don't know about Jingyu's little tricks, the Chu army disguised as the Zhao army to attack the Qin State, the two sides have long been clear, but due to the expansion of the war, the two sides have risen from regional battles to national wars, and they have no time to deal with Northern Chu, as long as the war stops, Qin and Zhao may form a coalition to deal with Northern Chu together.

This is the case in a world where such a great dispute is the case, and two countries that were fighting for life and death yesterday may form an alliance today because of the same thing that is beneficial to both sides.

There are no eternal friends and enemies, only eternal interests. No matter where this sentence is placed, it is an unchanging truth.

But what makes Jing Ran embarrassed now is how to tell Xiao Yue about this, do you tell him that because he wants to get the support of King Qin, he will return her to Qin State first?

After Jing Ran said goodbye to Zhao Yi, he was thinking about it all the way, but what he knew better was that Xiao Yue had already received such news when he was talking to Zhao Yi, and he had to go back first.

At the same time, in different places, two people are worried about the same thing, and they don't know how to explain it to each other.

The night passed quickly, and after sunrise, Jing Ran received news that Zhao Yi and the others had left, but Zhao Yi left a letter to Jing Ran.

The letter reads; Your Majesty the King of Chu, see the letter as well. The minister has set off to the front line, hoping that His Majesty the King of Chu can focus on the overall situation, and send the princess back to the Qin capital first, so as to fulfill the suffering of my king and daughter, and leave five hundred guards in the west of the city to escort the princess back to the court, hoping that His Majesty the King of Chu will consider more.

However, my king also has something to say, and I will inform His Majesty the King of Chu that among the people accompanying the King of Chu, there is a secret agent of Jingyu, hoping that everything will be careful, and the ministers will bow again.

Jing Ran looked at the letter and fell into deep thought, now the most important thing is not the princess's going, after a night of consideration, he also knows that the situation between him and the princess is really not suitable, and it is a slander for the princess's reputation, so he has already planned to send Xiaoyue back to Yongdu, but now Zhao Yi told himself that there was actually Jingyu's secret agent among his entourage, which was the most terrifying.

King Qin has already expressed his meaning in the secret letter, and he should not harm himself, but Jing Yu will.

"Someone, go and invite the princess... Forget it, I'll go myself. You pack your things first, and we'll set off as soon as I come. ”

Jing Ran walked towards Xiaoyue's residence alone, her heart beat hard and she was nervous along the way, although she had made a plan, but she hadn't figured out how to speak.

After walking for a while, I saw Xiao Yue also walking towards her residence with her head down, she also knew the news, when Jing Ran and Zhao Yi talked to each other at night, Zhao Yi had already sent a letter from King Qin to her, the content of the letter was very simple, telling her that she couldn't be with Jing Ran now, let her go back quickly.

The two of them walked opposite each other like this, and Jing Ran gently knocked Xiaoyue's head: "What do you think?" ”

Xiao Yue looked up and saw that it was Jing Ran, and she didn't know how to speak, so she only handed over King Qin's letter to Jing Ran: "You can see for yourself." ”

Jing Ran was relieved when he saw the new content, he reached out and touched Xiaoyue's head, and said softly: "I came today to tell you about this." ”

"Huh?"

"I'm going to leave for Shangdang now, and in five days, I'll go to the front line of Qin Zhao to find Ah Weng, and as for the rest of the matter, your father has already explained to me."

Jing Ran paused, looked at Xiao Yue and continued: "The next road will be very difficult, I don't know what my future will be, so you have to listen to your father's words first, and after I complete the big thing, I will personally come to Qin State to marry you and let you be the queen of my Great Chu, and no one will stop me." ”

Xiao Yue knew that the result would be like this, but after hearing him say it himself, his heart was a lot more reluctant.

"You disciple, don't lie to me!"

Saying that, Xiaoyue threw herself into Jing Ran's arms, and Jing Ran hugged her tightly.

After a while, the sergeant of the cavalry guard arrived and interrupted their thoughts: "Childe, everything is ready." ”

"Got it."

As he spoke, he took Satsuki's hand and set off.

After a while, the group arrived at the east of the city that Zhao Yi said, and sure enough, they saw a team of sergeants waiting here, and they saw that the leader was actually Li You.

Jing Ran stepped forward quickly: "Thank you General for what happened last time." As he spoke, he arched his hand towards Li You.

Li You naturally knew his identity: 'Your Majesty the King of Chu doesn't have to be polite. ’

The two of them are of the same age, and they are both ambitious people, so they actually have a feeling of sympathy for each other when they meet this time.

"Cousin..."

After a while, Xiaoyue also rode over, and when she saw that it was Li You, she was embarrassed, I didn't know what this cousin who had been partial to him since he was a child was set off by his father last time because of his own affairs.

Li You naturally knew Xiao Yue's thoughts, and smiled at Xiao Yue: "Don't worry, the king only punished me for half a year." ”

As he spoke, he looked at Jing Ran playfully: "This brother-in-law of King Chu, you have to compensate me for this loss." ”

Xiao Yue listened to his joke and blushed: "I ignore you." ”

He turned his face away.

Li You looked at Xiao Yue and shook his head, and said to Jing Ran: "Your Majesty the King of Chu, I'm going to bring the princess back next, if you have anything to say, hurry up." ”

After saying that, he left with interest.

Jing Ran slowly came to Xiaoyue's side, and just said lightly: "Wait for me!" ”

Xiao Yue looked at the person in front of him, his eyes were full of determination, Xiao Yue knew that Jing Ran would never let her down.

"I'll wait for you."

After saying that, Xiaoyue urged her to step forward, Li You looked at Jing Ran and arched his hand: "King Chu take care, we will see you in Yongdu!" ”

After speaking, he led the army in the direction of Yongdu.

Jing Ran looked at Li You and his party who were getting farther and farther away, and knew that the next time he saw Xiao Yue, it would be time for him to succeed, but if he failed, he would never see her again.

"I will definitely come and marry you!"

"Da Chu Xiao Cavalry Guard, let's go!"

The group also urged the horses to hurry and move in the direction of Shangdang County.

About two hours later, Jing Ran ordered to rest in place, and everyone stopped in an empty grassland.

Jing Ran looked at the map, and the sergeants did not dare to relax, because this was not only the territory of the Qin State, but also the place where Xirong often came to drink horses.

Jing Ran looked at Yutu and thought to himself, now that they have left the boundary of Ganzhou, but there is still some distance from the next city, and the King of Qin has already issued an order to take him back to Yongdu, although Jing Ran knows that the intention of King Qin's order is to confuse Jingyu and Xirong, but there is no harm in being careful in everything.

And for King Qin said that there was a secret agent around him, Jing Ran also thought about it for a long time, and now the problem is that he doesn't know who this secret agent is, if he rashly asks, these sergeants around him will inevitably be dissatisfied, and now he is still in danger, and if he can't get it, he may put himself in, so he can only do it without startling the snake.

While he was thinking, a patrolling cavalry sergeant came quickly, only to see that he had an arrow wound on his body, and Jing Ran knew that something was wrong.

"What's wrong!"

"Your Majesty, we have found a large number of cavalry thirty miles to the right!" The sergeant panted.

"How many? Can you see what they are wearing? ”

Jing Ran asked anxiously.

"There are about 1,000 people, and the outfit is not like ours in Zhongzhou."

Jing Ran chuckled in his heart, "It may be Xirong." ”

If it was the Qin army or other troops from Zhongzhou countries, he might be able to survive with these dozen or so people, but if it was Xirong, he might be killed here directly!

But Jing Ran didn't know that these Xirong were the troops led by the little prince of Xirong to find him and the princess, and it turned out that in order to calm Xirong's anger, the King of Qin had agreed to Xirong's request to lead troops to find his "fiancée" in Qin. At the same time, he also agreed to the request of Jingyu's troops to find the exiled King of Chu in Qin.

In this way, in addition to the unwitting local army of Qin and Xirong searching for Jing Ran and his party, even Northern Chu was also looking for them on the road.

Now the first wave has arrived, and it is the murderous Sijon.

Jing Ran learned from the information provided by the sergeant of the Xiao Cavalry Guard that the current Xirong should not have discovered the identity of Jing Ran and his party, perhaps just treating the patrolling sergeant as an ordinary soldier of the Qin State, or a thief who was outcast.

In this case, at least your party can still guarantee to escape.

"Listen to my orders, take your wounded brother, and immediately march in the direction of the Qin Imperial Forest Army to catch up with General Li You."

Jing Ran's strategy is relatively simple, Li You has five hundred Royal Forest Army in his hands, he can ask him for help, and the two sides will be separated and not long after, and the fast horse should be able to catch up.

It's important to save your life first, if you really die here, everything will be over.

At that moment, Jing Ran ordered the two of them to go to Li You's army with fast horses to report the news, and he took the rest of the people to follow closely behind, staring at this Xirong army.

"Action!"

After arranging everything, the group began to split up.
