At the south gate of Aocheng, Hou Mingfeng did not break his promise, and personally led the ironclad cavalry to escort Xiong Wu, Xiong Kuohai, and Xiong Hui out of the city.

The group went out of the south gate, and Hou Mingfeng arched his hand to Xiong Wu and said: "Emperor Chu, Hou has always been true to his word, since he has escorted Emperor Chu out of Aocheng, Emperor Chu please!"

"General Xie Hou, the mountains don't turn around, we'll see you on the battlefield another day." Xiong Wu bowed slightly, staring at Hou Ming's cover with envy.

Lin Feng's tent is full of fierce generals, loyal and loyal, on the other hand, in the Chu State, Xiong Kui is difficult to take on the big responsibility, so that he can supervise the country's military power and be taken away, the money is fearless and steals his life, and he sells the master to seek glory. Xiong Zhan separated from him and returned to Chu on this trip, which is unpredictable whether he is an enemy or a friend.

Only Han Xiangzi is loyal and a fierce general on the battlefield, and has the ability to help him solve problems.

"See you on the battlefield, farewell!"

Hou Ming bowed and clenched his fists, and rode away.

Xiong Wu watched Hou Mingfeng's figure go away, turned his head to look at Xiong Kuohai and asked, "Sixth Uncle, will you go directly to the imperial capital and escort Xiong Heng, or will you follow me to join Han Xiangzi and help me?"

Xiong Kuohai has a far-reaching influence in the Chu army, and where he chooses to go will form a situation where the enemy is strong and I am weak.

At this moment, Xiong Wu asked Xiong Kuohai where he was, if the other party was ready to go to Yingcheng to join Xiong Heng, he would never give Xiong Kuohai a chance.

"Xiong Wu, the Xiong clan has lasted for hundreds of years in the southern land and has become a prince. For many years, there has never been an enemy country that has invaded the Chu State, and now the Chu State is in a situation where it is about to be divided, all of which is the result of the internal struggle of the Xiong family's heirs.

As an elder of the Xiong family, I don't want the hundred-year foundation left by the ancestors of the Xiong family to be ruined by our generation.

Xiong Heng has the talent to govern the country, you still have the talent to govern the country, no matter what method you used to inherit the throne in the past, at present, you are the orthodox emperor of the Chu State,

At this moment, Xiong Heng usurped the throne, the Chu State is very likely to split, wait for you to gather your forces and summon Xiong Heng, if Xiong Heng takes the initiative to give way and jointly resist the Yan State, I think Xiong Heng can be forgiven, if the other party is greedy for the throne and obsessed, the only way to attack it is to attack it with iron and blood." Xiong Kuohai did not say his whereabouts directly, but in his words, he clearly stated his attitude.

When Xiong Wu learned about it, he said, "The sixth uncle understands the righteousness, and the nephew is ashamed."

"The state of Chu is the country of the Xiong family, and it was the ancestors of the Xiong clan who threw their heads, spilled their blood, and fought the battlefield with a knife and a gun, and they must not be touched by outsiders." Xiong Kuohai's words were firm, staring at Xiong Wudao: "The emperor doesn't have to worry, I will immediately let the guards go to the north, and summon Xiong Zhan to the south in my name to escort the emperor and kill back to Yingcheng.

According to the national strength of the Chu State, even if there is a civil strife, as long as the emperor regroups and the monarchs and ministers of the Chu State work together, even if we encounter the threat of the Yan army, we will not give in, and the land of the six counties ceded to the Yan State will be recaptured sooner or later."

"Everything will be done according to Uncle Six's proposal." Xiong Wu said with a smile on his face and a respectful expression.

Xiong Kuohai helped him, has made the tiger wings, if he lobbied Xiong Zhan to lead the troops to come, he will be full-fledged, and lead the army to kill back to Yingcheng sooner or later and regain his own power.

At this time, Xiong Kuohai took out his jade pendant from his arms, handed it to the guards next to him, and advised: "You take the three of you, go to the north in person, give the jade pendant to Xiong Zhan, and show him what the king thinks, Xiong Zhan will know what to do."

"Don't worry, the prince!" The guard held the jade pendant and said loudly. Without a moment's hesitation, he turned around and waved to the three guards beside him, saying, "You guys go to the north."

The guards galloped on horseback and galloped north.

Xiong Wu did not hesitate, and said to the guards beside him: "You take people to the Yanchu border quickly to join Han Xiangzi, pass on my order, let Han Xiangzi leave half of the army, and he personally leads half of the army, in the name of me, to conquer Xiong Heng and the traitors in the imperial city."

"Yes!"

When Xiong Wu returned to the state of Chu, there was turmoil on all sides.

Two days later, Qian Wuxing was the first to receive a letter from Han Xiangzi from a herald, suggesting that he persuade Xiong Heng to abdicate and welcome Xiong Wu's return.

The herald sent back a letter with a sharp dagger in it, and its meaning was self-evident.

Qian Wuxing, as an old minister by Xiong Wu's side, has been loyal to Xiong Wu for many years, and knows Xiong Wu's character best.

From the time he learned that Xiong Wu was released, in the northern border army, Han Xiangzi protected the south, and was already frightened.

Betrayal, rebellion, betrayal for glory.

Evidence of a crime, all of which are unforgivable capital crimes.

Moreover, Qian Wuxing knew that Xiong Wu could even be imprisoned for ten years by Xiong Heng, Xiong Kuohai and other royal families, and if he returned to the palace safe and sound, he would definitely eliminate the courtiers who betrayed him.

Qian fearlessly scared and panicked from the heart.

He knows very well that since the moment he betrayed his master to seek glory and served Xiong Heng, he and Xiong Heng are grasshoppers on a rope, if he naively believes that Xiong Heng will return Xiong Wu's power, Xiong Wu will raise his noble hand and let him go, he is simply seeking his own death.

Regardless of the moment's hesitation, when he hurriedly came to the palace, Xiong Heng, Xiong Rong and a few courtiers loyal to Xiong Heng were already discussing in the imperial study, and Qian Wuxing didn't know what Xiong Heng and the others were discussing.

Striding forward, he walked to the center of the imperial study, bowed down and saluted Xiong Heng and said, "Your Majesty, not long ago, the spies sent back news that the abolished emperor had left Aocheng and was rapidly gathering troops and horses in the north to come to the imperial city."

"I am already clear about this matter, and I am discussing it with the ministers!" Xiong Heng glanced at Qian Wudang, and his face was unwavering.

Hearing this, Qian Wuxing was slightly surprised, staring at Xiong Heng's face with an incredible look.

He assisted Xiong Heng in controlling the government, and was still appointed prime minister by Xiong Heng, but Xiong Wu returned, after Xiong Heng learned about such a big matter, he did not convene himself to discuss, but discussed with other courtiers.

If he hadn't hurriedly entered the palace and reported to Xiong Heng, it would not have been clear that Xiong Heng had learned about Xiong Wu's situation.

Staring at Xiong Heng's face, Qian Wuxing was very embarrassed and embarrassed.

When I was young, I gradually understood.

Xiong Wu was a dynasty, he was the prime minister, in charge of the government, Xiong Heng usurped the throne and served Xiong Heng, in Xiong Wu's eyes, he was no different from Xiong Heng, he was completely a raccoon dog.

However, Xiong Wu gathered troops in the north and wanted to lead the troops back to Yingcheng, in Xiong Heng's eyes, for many years, he served as the prime minister of Chu State, Xiong Wu led the troops back, and he may surrender to Xiong Wu again.

At this moment, he is in a dilemma, Xiong Wu, Xiong Heng, all regard him as an enemy, and no one trusts him at all.

Qian Wuxing wanted to hand over the letter sent back by Han Xiangzi to Xiong Heng, but when he heard Xiong Heng's words, he was indifferent, stared at Xiong Heng and said: "Since the emperor already knows that the abolished emperor is about to return to Yingcheng, Weichen will take the lead in retiring."

Thinking of his current situation, Qian Wuxing gradually understood why the Duan family would rather abandon the foundation of their hundreds of years of operation in the Chu State and wade through mountains and rivers to the Yan Kingdom.

It's time for the state of Chu to perish, and no one can stop the descendants of the Xiong clan from destroying the splendid country laid by the ancestors of the Xiong clan with their own hands.

Xiong Heng bowed slightly, not staying for a long time and fearless.

Walking out of the imperial study, Qian Wuxing was terrified, as if half his life had been buried in the loess, and he stepped into the ghost gate with one foot.

Yingcheng, Chu State, he and the people of his family must not stay for a long time, otherwise, sooner or later he will die in the hands of Xiong Heng and Xiong Wu brothers.

In the imperial study, Xiong Heng stared at Xiong Rong and the other officials and asked, "Xiong Rong, left and right Imperial Doctor, Xiong Wu is about to lead the troops back, what are your good plans?"

In an instant, Fan Danqing, the imperial envoy of the left, stood up without hesitation: "Your Majesty, why did the prime minister hurriedly come to the palace to report to the emperor that the abolished emperor was about to return with his troops, all because Qian Wudaunting knew that the return of the abolished emperor Many courtiers who supported the emperor's enthronement may die tragically under the butcher's knife of the abolished emperor.

Therefore, Weichen proposed to spread the return of the deposed emperor throughout the Chu State, and wanted to open the news of the killing, and strive to make the people of Chu and the officials of the counties support the emperor.

In addition, slander alone will definitely not be able to stop the Abolished Emperor's troops, and generals must be sent to the front line to prevent the Abolished Emperor's troops from returning to Yingcheng."

"Your Majesty, what Lord Yushi said is good, the abolished emperor has ordered Han Xiangzi to train many new troops, these troops are not loyal to the abolished emperor, since the emperor has successfully controlled this army, so he must send troops to the north to block the abolished emperor from going south.

At present, the abolished emperor and Han Xiangzi converged, and Weichen suggested that when the army was sent to conquer, assassins should be sent to assassinate the abolished emperor, and Han Xiangzi would take a two-pronged approach to try to block the abolished emperor in the north." The right counselor, Han Zhongzhong, said loudly.

Xiong Heng heard this, and the gloomy clouds in his expression still hadn't dissipated, and he couldn't help but feel a little worried in his heart.

He personally seized the throne of Xiong Wu, especially when the state of Chu was invaded by the Yan army, and was already morally suspicious of the people.

Soon after ascending the throne, the Duan clan, who supported his usurpation, led the royal family members to disappear overnight, losing the support of the Duan clan, and he was imprisoned in the abandoned palace for ten years.

What can really be relied on is Xiong Kuohai, Xiong Zhan, Xiong Rong.

However, Xiong Kuohai and Xiong Heng walked together, and did not return to Yingcheng for a long time, and the hopes he pinned on Xiong Kuohai became smaller and smaller. Xiong Zhan led his troops to the Yue Kingdom, and after he usurped the throne, Xiong Zhan did not issue a message of support.

Through Xiong Zhan's actions, it is enough to prove that Xiong Zhan is supporting himself or Xiong Wu, his attitude is ambiguous, and it will change from moment to moment.

At present, the only person he can really rely on is Xiong Rong, how can Xiong Rong be in a similar situation to him, and he is a Wenchen.

After a moment of silence, Xiong Heng's gaze shifted to Xiong Rong, and asked softly, "Fourth brother, what good plan do you have?"

"Your Majesty, no matter how many troops Xiong Wu has gathered in the north, no matter how many feudal officials there are in Chu State, and how many battlefield generals support Xiong Wu's return to Yingcheng, there is one thing, but it is very unfavorable to Xiong Wu, and the courtiers think that they can make a fuss about this matter." Xiong Rong's expression was calm, unlike Xiong Heng, who was slightly panicked, and did not ask Fan Danqing and Han Zhongzhong, and when the situation was unfavorable to Xiong Heng, he still proposed to send troops to fight.

Hearing this, Xiong Heng asked, "Fourth brother, did you say that Xiong Wu ceded the six northern counties to Yan State in order to gain freedom?"

"Emperor Mingjian, when his courtiers came to the palace from the palace, the carriage passed through the streets, and they witnessed the people talking about the abolition of the emperor and the cession of the six northern counties, and all the people were full of righteous indignation and were extremely annoyed by the actions of the abolished emperor.

However, in order to incite the fighting spirit of the people of Chu and force the abolished emperor to a place of no return, the younger brother suggested that in the name of going to the north to recover the six northern counties, he sent an army to attack the abolished emperor.

The army went to the north, and regardless of whether the deposed emperor continued to go south or not, he would never dare to send Han Xiangzi to lead his troops to attack the imperial army.

Otherwise, the news spread, and the deposed emperor will not only end up with a reputation for betraying the country and seeking glory, but also a reputation that is not the overall situation. On the other hand, the imperial army can completely drive out the army under the command of the abolished emperor and go to the north to fight the Yan army, and take the initiative to attack the abolished emperor." Xiong Rong gushed endlessly, expressing his inner proposal.

"Your Majesty, Prince Rong's proposal is the safest, and Weichen agrees!" Fan Danqing, the master of Zuo Yushi, echoed.

"Your Majesty, Weichen supports!"

"Your Majesty, Weichen supports!"

At this time, Xiong Heng bowed slightly, his face was still gloomy, and he stared at Xiong Rong and said: "Fourth brother, the spies have sent back news that Han Xiangzi was severely damaged by the Yan army in Aocheng in order to rescue Xiong Wu, and almost lost sixty or seventy thousand troops.

At present, in addition to the new army controlled by the imperial court, the Chu State has the largest number of elite soldiers under Xiong Zhan's command, and I have waited for a few days, Xiong Zhan has not sent any news back from the front line, I propose, you send a letter to Xiong Zhan, and strive to persuade Xiong Zhan to lead the troops to storm the deposed emperor from the north.

Once Xiong Zhan sent troops, the abolished emperor fell into a state of north-south attack, and it was difficult to make a comeback. As long as the internal chaos in the Chu State is quickly quelled, we will have enough time to deploy troops against the Yan State."

Xiong Heng didn't expect that Lin Feng would imprison Xiong Wuhou. After he usurped the throne and ascended the throne, he had not completely gathered the power of the Chu State, Xiong Wu was already under the protection of Han Xiangzi, and he was quickly coming in the direction of Yingcheng.

The usurpation of Xiong Wu's throne made Xiong Heng's heart go up and down, and he was nervous, lest Xiong Wu lead the troops back, and the court officials, the army under his control, when his foundation was unstable, suddenly turned against Xiong Wu and pledged allegiance to Xiong Wu.

At present, only Xiong Zhan, only Xiong Zhan leads the troops to support him, attacking Xiong Wu from the north, once Xiong Wu is defeated on the battlefield, I believe that the situation in Chu will definitely develop quickly in his favor.

What's more, with the support of Xiong Zhan and elite soldiers, it is easy to deter all forces in the Chu State, and it is much easier for him to govern the Chu State.

"The emperor can rest assured, the younger brother will send a letter to Xiong Zhan as soon as possible, and he will definitely persuade Xiong Zhan to lead the troops to attack and abolish the emperor." Xiong Rong knew that Xiong Heng was worried, and he knew even more that he personally instigated Xiong Heng to usurp the throne, and what would happen to him after Xiong Wu returned to Yingcheng.

He no longer wants to go to the abandoned and gloomy ruined palace, so Xiong Wu must die, and if he doesn't die, he can't lead his troops back to the Chu State.

However, just now that the imperial study was quiet, a guard outside the door hurriedly walked in, bowed to Xiong Heng, and turned to the wolf god and said: "Your Majesty, Han Xiangzi led 70,000 elite soldiers, waving the banner of the abolished emperor, and quickly came in the direction of Yingcheng.

Everywhere they passed, many feudal officials turned their backs and pledged their allegiance to the abolished emperor again."

"What, Han Xiangzi leads the troops, what about Xiong Wu, where is Xiong Wu?" Hearing this, Xiong Heng got up from his seat abruptly, stared at the guard, and asked impatiently.

The guards looked at the emperor's angry and anxious face, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the abolished emperor is on the border of Yanchu and is waiting for Xiong Zhan to go south, and the spies report that the abolished emperor has successfully lobbied Xiong Zhan and led the troops south."

"Bastards, these bastards, it must be Xiong Kuohai, it must be him who persuaded Xiong Zhan to work for Xiong Wu!" Knowing that Xiong Wu and Xiong Zhan converged, Xiong Heng's words were a little exhausted.

"The Emperor... Your Majesty, when Prince Xiong Zhan led his troops south, he was ambushed by the Yan army, and the casualties were not small." Staring at Xiong Heng's crazy appearance, the guard stammered.
