The clever tongue is better than a spring, and the hall is strong; The father asks many questions, and solves the disaster with a few words!

With the support of the sergeant, Zhong Liwu rode his mount with difficulty. At this time, my heart was very conflicted, that is, I blamed myself and regretted that I did not carry out the order, and I was happy that my best friend was able to escape!

The sergeants were all preoccupied on the way back with Zhong Liwu. Seeing that his general had been speechless, he took the initiative to ask, "General, are you worried about Han Xin's safety?" ”

Hearing the sergeant's question, Zhong Liwu only sighed lightly and replied slowly: "I have done everything I can do, and what kind of fate and opportunities he will have in the future is not something I can control." What I care about is how to explain it when I get back. I know you're all well-intentioned, but I always find it difficult to let me deceive the Overlord and the Strategist! ”

The sergeants couldn't bear to lie when they heard this, and hurriedly persuaded: "General, don't take this matter to heart!" The military advisor has already laid a net, even if you let Han Xin go, I am afraid that he will not be able to escape the pursuit. What's more, if we release fugitives privately, if the matter fails, I'm afraid even the family will not escape death! Please think twice! ”

Seeing that the sergeants all looked anxious and frightened, Zhong Li shook his head helplessly. He knew that once Fan Zeng knew about this, he and the sergeants would not be able to escape the death penalty. Thinking that he had dragged everyone down because of his recklessness and willfulness, he could no longer convince himself to stick to his principles.

"It's me who has caused everyone! Don't worry, I'll follow the excuses that everyone has discussed. It will not affect you and your family! In the end, I owe it to everyone. Thank you so much! ”

Hearing that the general was willing to deceive the overlord and the military advisor, the sergeants put down their hearts one after another. But when they heard the general's words of thanks to them, they replied in panic: "General, you said that, don't you want to torture us!?" We are all born and died with the general, and on the battlefield, each of us has been saved by the general. Even if the general wants our lives today! We will not complain either. Please don't say thank you again, general! ”

Seeing that the sergeants were faithful to themselves. And they are all loyal, Zhong Liwu only feels that his heart is mixed.

Seeing that he was speechless, the sergeant continued to reassure: "General, please don't worry about this matter anymore." Although we didn't have any contact with Han Xin, we still knew each other after all. When he gave advice to the general, we all saw it. Today, the general released him, which was actually an act of loyalty. It is precisely because of this that we brothers are willing to advance and retreat with the general. ”

Zhong Liwu heard the sergeants talk about Han Xin again, and he couldn't help but think of the bits and pieces with the other party in his mind.

"Han Xin is indeed talented, but it's a pity that the overlord refuses to use it! Now I think back to the night he escaped and came to my house to drink, obviously to say goodbye. Now that the big mistake has been made, it is useless to regret it, I only hope that he will not meet him on the battlefield in the future! for I do not want to be an enemy of this man. ”――

In the Pengcheng Chu Palace, Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng were patiently waiting for the report of the pursuit. At this time, Xiang Yu had already learned the news of Han Xin's defection, but he didn't seem to care about it, the only thing that annoyed him was that the other party actually dared to kill Cao Wushu as a gift of dedication, which was undoubtedly a provocation and insult to the overlord of Western Chu, who was proud of the world!

At a young age, the two waves of pursuing light cavalry returned to the palace to report the situation. Their results were the same, and they never chased Han Xin.

After listening to the report of the pursuing sergeant, Xiang Yu waved his hand slightly angrily for the sergeant to retreat. When there was no one, he said to Fan Zeng: "Father, now only Zhong Liwu is left to chase the army all the way and has not returned." Do you think Han Xin can be captured or killed? ”

Hearing Xiang Yu's question, Fan Zeng shook his head helplessly and replied, "I really can't predict what the result will be." If he really goes to have Liu Bang, he shouldn't be able to escape from our control. I'm just afraid he has other plans, or"

Seeing that Fan Zeng wanted to stop talking, Xiang Yu immediately asked, "Or what?" Father can be blunt! ”

"Or Zhong Liwu will deliberately let him Han Xin go once!"

Hearing that Fan Zeng was suspicious of Zhong Lifu, Xiang Yu hurriedly said, "Impossible, Father, you are too worried." I know that Zhong Liwu has some friendship with that Han Xin, but he is loyal to me and will never abolish his privacy! ”

After Fan Zeng heard Xiang Yu's words, he nodded. He also believes in Zhong Liwu's loyalty. But in his opinion, people have feelings after all, and it is difficult to ensure that the other party will not have a brain fever and make wrong decisions. It is precisely because of this that he has arranged many additional levels and pursuers.

"Maybe it's true that I'm overthinking, but there is one person, I believe that whether it is Zhang Zifang's secret infiltration or Han Xin's escape, he must know!"

As soon as Fan Zeng heard that someone was secretly collaborating with the enemy, Xiang Yu hurriedly asked, "Who is the father talking about?" Let me send someone to capture him and interrogate him carefully!" ”

Fan Zeng smiled at this time and did not answer, only after gently twisting his beard, did he smile coldly: "I have sent someone to pass on him, and he will come later." When Yu'er arrives, you just have to watch, I will let him have nothing to hide! ”

Xiang Yu saw that Fan Zeng refused to say it clearly, and began to guess who it was. Just when he was straining the officials and generals in his mind one by one, he suddenly saw the inner servant enter and report: "Overlord, Fan Lao, Chen Duwei is ordered to ask to see." ”

Hearing that Chen Ping was coming, Fan Zeng immediately replied in a deep voice: "Okay! It's good to come! Let him in! ”

Xiang Yu heard Chen Ping's arrival, and then asked Fan Zeng suspiciously: "Father, could it be that you suspect Chen Ping?!" ”

did not wait for Fan Zeng's reply. Chen Ping had already entered the hall. After seeing Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng, he hurriedly bowed and saluted. "Xiaguan see the overlord! I've seen Fan Yafu! ”

As soon as Xiang Yu saw Chen Parallel, he casually planned to let him get up, but before he could speak, Fan Zeng suddenly shouted: "Chen Ping! Are you guilty?! ”

Chen Ping was slightly stunned at first when he heard Fan Zeng's accountability, but after a moment, he replied calmly: "The lower officials don't know what Fan Lao means, please speak up!" ”

Seeing that Chen Ping was still calm, Fan Zeng immediately said gloomily: "Since you are unwilling to confess your guilt, then I have to settle accounts with you carefully!" Let me ask you, Zhang Zifang disguised himself into the city, do you know? Han Xin escaped overnight, have you ever helped?! ”

Fan Zeng seemed a little aggressive at this time, but Chen Ping didn't seem to care about the other party's accountability at all. "Where did the Father speak! I, Chen Pingmeng, will not give up the overlord and entrust him with an official position. How dare you secretly communicate with others! ”

"What a person who doesn't dare to secretly communicate with others! Let me ask you, that Zifang once lived in your house, didn't you see the clue?! ”

Seeing Fan Zeng mention this, Chen Ping hurriedly hugged his fists and replied: "Zhang Zifang stayed in my mansion, which is the intention of the overlord. What's more, at that time, his identity was a talented man at the recruitment conference, how could he know his identity in the next place!? And the military advisors have never seen the flaws, how can the villain be compared with Fan Lao?! ”

"Hmph, what about Yu Xi's residence? Yu Xi lives in another palace, except for the overlord, only you often come and go. How did the ovary know? And why do you mean to send the medicine of fake death to her!? ”

In the face of Fan Zeng's questioning again, Chen Ping still behaved extremely calmly. "My father is so forgetful, I need to know that Miss Qingmin also lived in another palace before she was accepted by you as a righteous daughter, and I am afraid that she is more familiar with the situation than me. As for the so-called medicine of suspended animation, I have no way of knowing. Wouldn't it be that on the day of the wedding, Miss Qingmin secretly sent it to Miss Yu Xi? ”

Fan Zengshi didn't expect that Chen Ping's three-inch tongue was not much better than Zhang Lianglai. After a war of words, Fan Zeng decided not to give Chen Ping a chance anymore.

"Good! What a sharp mouth! Chen Ping, let your tongue be as clever as a spring today, and I will also let you reveal your true form! Since you are so eloquent, then tell me how you learned that Yu Xi's death was a fake death, and then informed the overlord! If you hadn't had an affair with that ovary early in the morning, how would you have known about it?! You obviously knew it in your heart, and when you saw that the old man saw through Zhang Zifang's trick, you were afraid that he would die at my hands, so you went to find the overlord to help! Also, that Han Xin is now on the run, and he used to walk around with you a lot, do you dare to say that you don't know the inside story? If you make sense today, you'll be fine. If it doesn't make sense, don't blame the old man for being ruthless! ”

As soon as Fan Zeng's words fell, he saw two warriors coming in from outside the hall. Chen Ping was shocked when he saw that the other party was prepared. Even Xiang Yu, who had never spoken out, was stunned when he saw this.

After stabilizing his mind slightly, Chen Ping's face sank, and he casually pretended to be annoyed and shouted: "Fan Yafu, are you resentful of saving Miss Yu Xi that day?!" The questions and speculations you are asking are not only naïve, but also full of loopholes! That Han Xin escaped, what does it have to do with me! If I really have the heart to rebel against the overlord, I should flee with him, how can I be so humiliated by you here! Moreover, the person who is good friends with Han Xin should be the first to recommend Zhong Lifu, Fan Lao, you avoid the important and take it lightly, do you want to be unjustly killed?! Let's talk about Miss Yu Xi's fake death that day! I, Chen Ping, do things in line with the conscience of heaven and earth, and there is no concealment or concealment. At the time of the funeral that day, Fan Lao, you should have dragged the overlord in the palace, but you took a light horse out of the city, how could this not make the villain suspicious! Although you are the father of the overlord, I, Chen Ping, are only loyal to the overlord! I saw that something was wrong, and I just entered the palace to see what was going on, but I never thought that you, Fan Yafu, would dare to stun the overlord! You want to get rid of Miss Yu Xi, it has long been known to everyone, I am afraid that the overlord was grief-stricken when he learned about it, so I woke up the overlord, and then told my guess! If Fan Lao doesn't believe it, he can ask the overlord! The overlord will testify for the villain! ”

After listening to Chen Ping's self-defense, Xiang Yu also echoed and said: "Father, what Chen Ping said is true, he didn't say that Yu Xi faked his death that day, but just told me that the funeral was a little strange, so I went." Are you mistaken? ”

Without waiting for Fan Zeng to reply, Chen Ping rushed to say: "It seems that Fan Lao wants to put me to death today, as for how to explain it, it doesn't matter at all!" Is it because I ruined Fan Lao's plan to get rid of Yu Xi that you hate me to the core?! Let my death serve as a warning to the world not to join the Father's disciple again! It's a pity that I was loyal, but I ended up unjustly killed, and the sky is really blind! ”

After Chen Ping finished speaking, he actually rushed to the big pillar in the hall, wanting to break it by himself.

The sergeant next to him saw that he was moving, and immediately grabbed him firmly!

Xiang Yu never thought that Chen Ping would actually want to die. Seeing that this move had been stopped by the samurai, he was relieved. But Fan Zeng still looked coldly at this man who had won Xiang Yu's trust with just a sharp mouth (to be continued.) )
