Chapter 22: I'm Ji Yan

Hua Long said: "Li Tingting, go get some porridge for Brother Xiang to eat, I just woke up, and I shouldn't eat hard things." Everyone is gone, Brother Xiang has just woken up, and he can't talk too much. Then, Hua Long took everyone away.

The princess suddenly found Hua Long and said, "Little rascal, who is that woman, why did you kill Big Brother Xiang?" ”

"I'm the same as you, I only met a few days ago, and he is the family of the former king of Jiguo." Hua Long said.

"I know this, but you and Brother Xiang must have some secrets, after he was assassinated that day, you didn't ask the woman anything, you knew how to deal with it, and Brother Xiang also thanked you for your thoughtfulness." The princess didn't believe it.

Hua Long smiled and said: "Because the hero is sad to pass the beauty pass, so I have a heart-to-heart connection with Brother Xiang, don't you think that woman is too beautiful?" ”

The princess disdainfully said: "I admit that the woman is good-looking, but I won't admit that you are a hero and killed me." ”

"What am I not a hero?" Hua Long asked.

"You're a dead hooligan, and when you see a beautiful woman, your eyes go straight." The princess despised him.

"Then I'm going to stare at you more in the future, if I don't look at you, it means that you're not a beauty." Hua Long stared at her deliberately.

The princess suddenly reached out and grabbed his ear, Hua Long screamed in pain, and the princess said happily: "You still think I'm going to kick you, I've changed my strategy now." ”

Hua Long immediately begged for mercy: "Forget it, princess, everyone is watching, it's not good." ”

The princess thought that there were many people outside, so she let go, clapped her hands, and went away happily.

The next day, Hua Long went to see Xiang Yu again, and Xiang Yu said: "Second brother, listen to Li Tingting and them, you killed 70,000 horses of Zheng Guo this time, and now the soldiers are divided into three ways to plunder the city of Zheng Guo, the eldest brother really didn't misunderstand you." ”

"Big brother, I began to want to die, and then I was woken up by the prince. I thought, the two of us finally came together, and it was not worth dying like this, I must survive this difficulty. Hua Long said: "Big brother, I now find that as long as you are here, I have confidence in everything." ”

"Second brother, you are too modest, these are your skills." Xiang Yu said.

Hua Long and Xiang Yu chatted and went out.

Shen You fled back with 30,000 people, Zheng Guo's court exploded, and King Zheng said directly to Shen You: "General Shen, why are your 100,000 troops beaten like this by a mere 30,000 horses, you are a veteran general who has been fighting on the battlefield for many years, and this battle has hurt the foundation of our country." ”

"The sinner is incompetent, please punish the king." Shen You said.

Several ministers fell into the ground: "Your Majesty, General Shen was almost wiped out in one battle, and he should be dealt with by military law." ”

King Zheng said to these ministers: "In Yi'er's opinion, what should be done with General Shen?" ”

"According to the law, you should be killed." These people replied.

"Okay, the next time there is a war, the widow will send a few of you, and if you can't win the battle, you will be cut down." King Zheng suddenly said loudly.

These people suddenly realized that they would be wrong about King Zheng's consciousness, and they didn't dare to squeak.

King Zheng said to Shen You: "General Shen, you have followed the widow for many years, made many military exploits, and have always fought steadily, what is going on this time?" Lost so badly. ”

A lieutenant general surnamed Guan under Shen You said: "King, General Shen can't be blamed for this matter, in this battle, General Shen found that something was wrong, and we were urging him to attack." There were three reasons for this defeat: first, the number of enemy troops was miscalculated, and they numbered at least 40,000, all of whom were cavalry; Second, we were careless and fell for the other party's plan; Third, they have strange weapons and strong lethality. ”

King Zheng sighed: "Why does King Zhou suddenly have such a strong strength, we can't start a war against them now, I'm afraid that they will take the opportunity to attack our city, what is the best plan for Zhong Aiqing?" ”

The ministers talked about it, but none of them came out to answer. Or Shen You said: "King, last time the King of Qi brought 200,000 troops to the Zhou Dynasty, and he went back in less than 3 days, and it is estimated that he also suffered a dark loss, so we might as well form an alliance with them and deal with the King of Zhou." ”

"Okay, the widow will send an envoy to the Qi country." King Zheng was also helpless, he couldn't imagine that the two big countries would be beaten like this by the Zhou Dynasty.

Half a month later, the envoy replied: "The king of Qi promised to send 50,000 troops under our command, and they will not come forward." ”

King Zheng said, "General Shen, see what to do." ”

Shen You said: "This point of strength is too small, if we also give 50,000, together with 100,000, there is not half a chance of winning; If we give 100,000 and 150,000 together, in case we lose, there will be nothing. The king, if you want to no longer probe the meaning of the king of Wei, they were also beaten down by the Zhou Dynasty as an ally, and there was no sound of pits. ”

King Zheng said: "That's all. The widow sent messengers again. ”

It has been more than 20 days since Xiang Yu was assassinated, the wound has healed, there is no problem with the action, but he can't exert his strength, Xiang Yu found Hua Long and wanted to go to see the girl who assassinated him together, Hua Long went with him.

When the girl saw Xiang Yu, she wasn't scared at all, she just didn't understand why Xiang Yu didn't let people kill her.

Xiang Yu asked her, "What's your name?" ”

"My name is Ji Yan." The girl replied that she was of the same clan as King Zhou, and her surname was Ji.

"Did you assassinate me because I led someone to kill your father?" Xiang Yu asked.

The girl hummed in acquiescence.

Xiang Yu said: "Second brother, let her go." ”

Ji Yan said, "I'm not leaving." ”

Xiang Yu said: "Why? ”

"My brother and my family are still in your hands." Ji Yan said.

So Xiang Yu asked someone to bring their whole family over, and said to Ji Yan, "Your family is all here, right?"

Ji Yan nodded.

"Let's all go." Xiang Yu said.

Ji Yan then pulled a teenage boy and walked out with their family, and Xiang Yu watched her walk silently.

Hua Long suddenly chased after him and said, "You guys go slowly." ”

Everyone thought that Hualong would regret it and not let them go.

Hua Long said to the soldiers next to him: "You take them to Chen Sheng to get some money, let them go, I have something to say to their sister and brother." Then Hua Long pulled Ji Yan's sister and brother aside and said to the boy, "What's your name?" How old is it? ”

"My name is Ji Qing and I'm 13 years old." The boy replied.

"You used to be at home, who was best for you? What about your mother? Hua Long asked.

"My sister and my father are the best to me, but my mother is gone." Ji Qing replied.

"Are you afraid of me?" Hua Long asked.

"Sort of." Ji Qing replied.

"Do you dare to fight with me?" Hua Long asked.

"Dare, I want to fight, I want to be a general and protect my sister." Ji Qing said.

"Then it's okay for you to be my brother, I'll take you to war and make you a general." Hua Long said.

Ji Qing set his eyes on his sister, but Ji Yan did not speak, nor did she express her position.

Hua Long just saw that the relationship between their two sisters and brothers was very good, and it was estimated that they were born to the same mother, and now that their father is dead, this big family will be dispersed, so he chased them out, wanting to keep their sisters and brothers, he didn't want Xiang Yu to have regrets. So he said to them: "It is so decided, I will be your brother from now on." ”
