Li Mao was naturally reluctant to compensate Lu Shaoyang, but since the general said it, he could only do it. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Lu Shaoyang looked at Li Mao with disdain and apologized to him, but he didn't say half a word, and put on a posture of not accepting it.

Seeing this, Fan Zhong couldn't say anything, he could only order someone to serve Lu Shaoyang to go down to rest first, and set up wine tomorrow to shock Lu Shaoyang.

Lu Shaoyang didn't shirk it, he simply gave a salute and left.

Li Mao watched Lu Shaoyang walk out of the Luan Xiang Palace, and then he came to Fan Zhong and asked, "Didn't the general believe that kid's words?" ”

Fan Zhong asked rhetorically: "Why doesn't that young man believe every reason?" Do you have any concerns? ”

Li Mao cautiously replied: "Forgive my subordinates for being unreasonable, this seems to be a little strange. It would be a bit hasty to conclude that he was the grandson of Xia Guosi Kou based on a jade pendant alone. ”

Fan Zhong laughed when he heard this: "Do you think I will believe him just by that jade pendant?" It's just a stopgap measure. ”

"Oh?" Li Mao's eyes rolled, but he didn't think much about it, so he continued to ask: "The general said that this is an expedient measure, and his subordinates are a little puzzled. ”

Fan Zhong said with a smile: "This son is handsome and extraordinary, and he is indeed from a family, but it is indeed a bit inappropriate to conclude that he is Sima Wuji's grandson now, but we can't come up with any evidence to prove his identity now, so we can only think that he is Sima Tu first, and everything will not be concluded until he is honored after the triumph and then sent him back to the Xia Kingdom." ”

"But the fugitives from the Xia Kingdom are also from noble backgrounds!" Li Mao reminded.

Fan Zhong waved his hand and said: "If it is a fugitive, he will definitely not admit his identity as a fugitive, but will deny or keep silent in every possible way, but he is calm, and he also tells his life experience in a good way, thinking that even if he is not Sima Wuji's grandson, he will not be a fugitive, at best he is just a rich son who wants to climb the dragon and attach the phoenix." If he is really a fugitive, wouldn't it be a great achievement for us to send him back to China? ”

"That's true, but why does the general value that kid so much? Even if he is Sima Wuji's grandson, what benefit can King Xia give us? ”

Fan Zhongdao: "It's not the benefits that King Xia gives us, but the benefits that the king gives us, or the benefits that the State of Chu gives us." Think about it, now that the king is plundering other countries, the country is empty, what is he most afraid of? Naturally, it was invaded by other countries, but Xia Guo was the biggest threat. I think that the Xia Kingdom is friendly with our country on the surface, but secretly it wants to eat us the most. Some time ago, because of the prince's affairs, the whole country was in turmoil, and the Chen soldiers of the Xia Kingdom said that they wanted to help us quell the chaos, but in fact, they were looking for an opportunity to annex our city. Fortunately, that riot was only temporary, and there was no trouble for a long time, otherwise I am afraid that our current opponent would not be Shu but Xia. Therefore, we must continue to show favor to King Xia and seek stability in the rear. As far as I know, Sima Wuji has a high position in the Xia State, and he is more powerful than the three dukes, and there are many old ministers who are his old friends. If we send his grandson back, then wouldn't he be grateful to our Chu State and be at our mercy? At that time, if King Xia has the intention of moving our Chu State, then Sima will definitely sell us a favor to persuade King Xia. In this case, our lord will sit back and take over the world with peace of mind, and won't we, who are courtiers, follow the increase in officials and become knights? ”

"I see!" Li Mao clapped his hands and said: "It's still a wise general, thinking so long-term, my subordinates admire it!" ”

Fan Zhong said proudly: "You still have more miles to learn!" ”

Two people, you look at me, I look at you, and suddenly laughed at the seat.

At the same time, in the territory of Wu'an, a man in black quietly climbed into Wu Anjun's mansion. He slipped into the inner house and came to a secluded place. It is the side courtyard of this mansion, and few people pass by on weekdays.

A man dressed in fine clothes stood there silently, as if waiting for someone to arrive. The man in black hurriedly approached the man in gorgeous clothes, knelt down on one knee and said, "Subordinates see the prince!" ”

The man made a boo gesture with his hand and said, "I'm no longer the prince, I'm still called Wu Anjun." ”

The man in black said: "The prince will always be the prince, and he will still be our king in the future, and the loyalty of his subordinates can be seen by the sun and the moon!" ”

"Okay, I know your loyalty to this monarch, I want to think how many people die for this monarch to inherit the great cause, if this monarch can succeed in the future, he will definitely not fail them. It's just that this is an extraordinary time, and the name of this prince still can't be called casually. ”

"Yes, my subordinates understand!" The man in black replied.

"How's it going?" Wu Anjun asked.

The man in black was silent for a moment and replied, "The subordinates did find Lu Wufeng, but it was just ......"

"Just what?" Wu Anjun asked eagerly.

"It's just that the subordinates didn't find it, and we broke a lot of brothers."

"What about Lu Wufeng?"

"Dead." Humane in black.

"What? He's dead? How did you die? Didn't he fight for your life? Did he kill all the people you brought? ”

"It is true that they are all dead, but the people I brought with me did not kill him, but died at the hands of his son."

"His son? It turned out that his son was also a master of the Yin and Yang family. Wu Anjun sighed, "It's really God who doesn't bless me, I didn't think it was easy to know that thing was in Lu Wufeng's hands, but in the end, it was empty joy." Even you, as the number one master of the Chu State, can't get it, and it is estimated that the great position of the Chu State has no chance with this monarch. ”

The man in black saw that Wu Anjun's face was sad, and hurriedly persuaded: "The prince doesn't have to be too sad, that thing still has room to turn around." ”

"What do you mean by that?"

The man in black said: "Although my subordinates didn't know the whereabouts of that thing from Lu Wufeng, they also guessed that it was going to be related to his son when they saw him desperately protecting his son, thinking that it must be related to his son." ”

"And where is his son now?"

The man in black shook his head and said, "The subordinates are incompetent, at the end of the battle that day, Lu Wufeng was already unable to fight again, but his son's strength from nowhere actually killed all of us in an instant, and by the time his subordinates got out of the rubble, that kid was already nowhere to be found." ”

"Nowhere to be found? Is that dead or alive? ”

"He should still be alive, his subordinates sent someone to inquire a few days ago, saying that someone had seen him near Chengdu."

"Huh? Chengdu is now at war, and it is said that my father's army has become a broken bamboo, and I am afraid that good news will come soon. If we do it at this time, will we startle the snake? ”

The man in black hugged his fists and said: "Don't worry, the prince, his subordinates have already had a perfect plan, and this time they will definitely send that thing to the prince safely and securely!" ”
