Chapter 108: Killing intent grows

Xiang Yu, who was at another interface in time and space, thought that he had cleared the obstacle of Lu Xiaoyu, and happily took the carriage back to Jingzhou City. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

He thought that King Wu Yue would arrive later, but he didn't expect that as soon as King Wu Yue waited for him to leave Qiantang, he united with Xiong Wu, King Xiong Sui, King Xiong Sui, King Xiong Piguang of Jinan, King Xiong Xian of Zichuan, King Xiong Ang of Jiaoxi, Xiong Xiongqu, King of Jiaodong and other princes of the Xiong clan to launch a rebellion in the name of "Qing Jun's side". King Wu Yue mobilized all the troops that could be mobilized and prepared to join the armies of the other princes to attack Jingzhou.

But what he never expected was that there was an army in the mountainous area of King Wu Yue but refused to obey the order, that is, the Flying Tiger Army in charge of Lu Xiaoyu, and now Lu Xiaoyu was not there, and the soldiers were in his hands, and no one could mobilize this army, including King Wu Yue. King Wu Yue urged them to act several times in a hurry, but they were indifferent, and finally gave up in order not to affect the speed of the march.

When Xiang Yu arrived in Jingzhou City, he heard the rumors that the seven princes surnamed Xiong had rebelled in the name of the Qing monarch, and then he panicked. He was sent by Tong Zhongxian to invite King Wu Yue to Jingzhou City, but now that the people have not arrived, he has rebelled. Tong Zhongxian is bound to think that it was Xiang Yu who secretly told King Wu Yue about the conspiracy, so that he would be aware of it, he was planted this time, and he must think of a perfect strategy, otherwise his hard-won identity and status will come to naught.

Emperor Xuanhe in the palace was waiting for the time to remove the identity of the princes and vassal kings, but the news of the rebellion of the seven princes was indeed expected, and he was so frightened that he almost fell off the dragon chair. Tong Zhongxian was even more angry, and secretly scolded this Yu in his heart, what did he do, in vain I valued him so much, let him invite King Wu Yue to come, it must be that he climbed the power of King Wu Yue and betrayed himself. The more Tong Zhongxian thought about it, the more angry he became, first appeased the frightened Xiong Jie, and angrily returned to his house to wait for Xiang Yu to come back and ask him to look good.

happened to meet Xiang Yu's carriage back when he arrived at the gate, and Xiang Yu got off the car before he had time to salute Tong Zhongxian, and he was beaten by him with his head and face. Xiang Yu couldn't dodge in time, and was called three times on the back of the head, and his eyes were full of stars.

"The father-in-law should not fight again, the child knows that he is wrong." Although Xiang Yu hated Tong Zhongxian in his heart for humiliating him in public, he still hugged his head and begged for mercy on the surface.

"Come, tell me what's wrong with you?" Tong Zhongxian was so angry that he directly grabbed one of Xiang Yu's ears and walked into the house.

"You kneel down for me, I ask you, I asked you to invite King Wu Yue, what about people now? How did he rebel unharmed? Tong Zhongxian sat on the chair angrily, drinking tea and teaching Xiang Yu a lesson.

Xiang Yu is really more wronged than Dou E, he obviously invited the king of Wuyue according to his wishes, and he was not bewitched by him in the middle, he also agreed to come to Jingzhou City, and he didn't know what happened later before he changed his mind.

Xiang Yu told Tong Zhongxian all about his trip to Qiantang, and asked people to take out several large boxes of gold, silver and jewelry, "Father-in-law, these are all given to you by King Wuyue, and the child has no private hiding." At this time, you can't make Tong Zhongxian angry anymore, it is important to save your life, Xiang Yu also said that the share given to him by King Wu Yue was for Tong Zhongxian, in order to show his loyalty.

It's good that this treasure is not taken out, but as soon as it is taken out, Tong Zhongxian is even more angry, "What a fool, such short-sightedness, what is the use of three boxes of gold." What I want is the wealth of the whole Wu Yue. Were you bought just because King Wu Yue gave these three boxes of treasures? Worse than useless! Tong Zhongxian was still angry, picked up a jade Ruyi in the box and hit Xiang Yu, Xiang Yu did not dodge, and hit Yu Ruyi until it was broken in half.

Xiang Yu was covered in blood, gritting his teeth and clenching his fists, looking very terrifying. At this moment, the seeds of his killing intent towards Tong Zhongxian were buried deep in his heart.

Tong Zhongxian didn't forget to give a sweet jujube after the fight, "Yu'er, you don't want your father-in-law to be cruel to you, I just hope you can remember it for a long time, so as not to make the same mistake next time." This severed jade ruyi will be given to you as a warning. Tong Zhongxian himself smiled and swallowed three boxes of treasures.

"Thank you for the reward from your father-in-law, the child must keep it in mind, and he won't do it again next time." Xiang Yu looked at Tong Zhongxian's greedy expression, thinking in his heart that one day I will return to you ten times the humiliation you made to me.

In the first month of the third year of Emperor Xuanhe of Southern Chu, Xiong Hui, the king of Wuyue, raised troops in Qiantang, placed a granary in Dongyang, Huainan, crossed the Huai River to the west, joined the Wei soldiers, and sent spies and guerrillas to go deep into the Caiwei area. The Wu-Wei coalition army crossed the Huaishui and attacked westward, which was the main force of the rebellion. The rebels of Jiaoxi and other countries attacked Linzi, which was defended by King Xiong of Qi, while Zhao asked some mercenary groups of Khitan and Western Xia to invade Southern Chu. Due to Xiong Hui's premeditation, the Seven Nations Army went well at the beginning of the rebellion.

When Emperor Xuanhe heard the news, he was so anxious that he wanted to heat the ants on the pot, and immediately found Tong Zhongxian to discuss the dispatch of troops. Tong Zhongxian suggested that Emperor Xuanhe drive the expedition in person and stay in the capital by himself. Emperor Xuanhe had the shadow of the last Jinshui Fort change, and he no longer dared to drive the expedition in person.

He rejected Tong Zhongxian's suggestion and sent Tong Zhongxian to personally supervise the battle. Tong Zhongxian had no choice but to lead his troops to fight, but fortunately, Xiang Yu beside him was a general, and he barely became a stalemate with the rebels led by King Wu Yue. Emperor Xuanhe saw that the rebels were attacking Jingzhou like a tide, and in the end, he had no choice but to rescue Prime Minister Li Mi, who was still in prison at this time, and sent someone to the allied Khitan to find the emperor to ask for assistance.

When Prime Minister Li was brought to see the emperor, he had already undergone countless tortures, and his body was covered with wounds that had not healed, and there was a foul smell of pus flowing from the hot summer. His hair was disheveled, and his eyes were blinded in prison, and although he was helped to walk, he still limped. The ministers all sighed and shook their heads when they saw Lord Li and the old ministers of the three dynasties have fallen to such a state.

"Prime Minister Li, you have suffered, I blamed you before. Now that the imperial brother is rebelling with the other six princes, Jingzhou City is in danger, you must find a way to help Nanchu, how can it be done now. Emperor Xuanhe grabbed Li Mi's trembling hands and said cryingly.

"Your Majesty, you can trust the old minister anymore, and it is worth it for the old minister to suffer these tortures. Although I am in prison, my heart is in the middle of the court. I heard that King Wu Yue rebelled, all because the traitorous minister Tong Zhongxian wanted to cut down the power of the vassal kings, so he forced those princes to rebel. Only by killing Tong Zhongxian and satisfying the rebels' requirements of the "Qing Jun's side" can they withdraw from the army.

Emperor Xuanhe thought about it again and again, and in order to keep his country, he had to sacrifice his favored Tong Zhongxian, adopted Li Mi's plan, named Li Mi as Taichang, and asked him to secretly rectify his outfit and send Wu Yue.

When Emperor Xuanhe was about to issue an order to recall Tong Zhongxian to give him the death penalty of beheading, he saw a general outside the hall carrying a bloody burden.
