Early the next morning, Xiang Zhuang sent 500 armor soldiers to send Ying Zhen out of the camp.

is still the same sentence, if people have no foresight, there must be near-term worries, Xiang Zhuang thought about it again and again, and decided not to provoke Yingzhen.

On the way back to Jiuyuan, Ying Zhen's mood was obviously a little low, and Xiang Zhuang acted so decisively, which really surprised her.

Seeing Ying Zhen's depressed appearance, Baili Yishui, who accompanied him, was a little unbearable, and immediately caught up with Baili Xian, and asked in a low voice: "Big brother, why does the general want to send the princess sister back to Jiuyuan?" ”

Bai Lixian shook the feather fan and said indifferently: "What, little sister, do you think this is not good?" ”

"Of course it's not good, it's bad, it's very bad." Baili Yishui pouted and said, "Big brother, don't you see it?" Sister Princess seems to have liked the general, but the general sent her back to Jiuyuan at this time, how sad should Sister Princess be? As he spoke, Baili Yishui's small mouth pursed higher and higher.

Baili Xian said: "The general does this, naturally he has a reason. ”

Baili Yishui pouted and said, "The general is ruthless, too ruthless." ”

Baili Xian is awe-inspiring and ruthless? Just be ruthless! If it weren't for Xiang Zhuang's ruthlessness enough, how could he have persevered until now with thousands of remnants of the Chu army? If it weren't for Xiang Zhuang's ruthlessness, how could he have wrestled the military power from the hands of Xiang Bo, Xiang Han, and Chen Xuan, and expanded the 3,000 remnants to the current 20,000?

Only a ruthless person like Xiang Zhuang can achieve great things.

Only a ruthless person like Xiang Zhuang would believe in the law of the old Qin and the system of cultivation and warfare.

Moreover, Bai Lixian also does not think that it is a good thing for Ying Zhen to marry Xiang Zhuang, if Ying Zhen really marries Xiang Zhuang, it may make it easier for the old Qin people in the world to accept Xiang Zhuang, but it will inevitably fuel the arrogance of many old Qin people, especially in the future, when Ying Zhen gives birth to an heir for Xiang Zhuang, the situation will be more subtle and even out of control.

Baili Xian didn't want to bring ruin to the old Qin people in the world because of his ambition to win Zhen.

With Xiang Zhuang's ruthlessness, Bai Lixian has no doubt that once the old Qin people and Ying Zhen's heirs threaten the national unity of Great Chu, Xiang Zhuang will definitely wipe out all the old Qin people who dare to shake the foundation of Chu in one fell swoop, and even the heirs born by Ying Zhen, I am afraid that it will be difficult to escape Xiang Zhuang's poisonous hands, even if he is also Xiang Zhuang's son.

At the south gate of Jiuyuan, Meng Yan had been waiting for a long time with more than 100 personal riders.

Seeing Ying Zhen's car, Meng Yan hurriedly turned over and dismounted, stood on the left side of the road and arched his hand: "See Her Royal Highness the Princess." ”

Ying Zhen lifted the curtain of the carriage, revealing half of her pretty face, and said to Meng Yan and more than 100 relatives who bowed down to salute: "General Meng and all the soldiers are exempt from courtesy, and the palace is unwell, so I won't get out of the car." ”

Meng Yan suddenly paused in his heart, and looked at Bai Lixian's gaze a little unkindly.

It seemed that he had guessed what Meng Zhen was thinking, and then Ying Zhen said: "General Meng don't worry, General Xiang Zhuang and the Great Chu soldiers are very friendly to the palace, and the palace is only slightly ill, and there is no major problem." ”

Meng Yan breathed a sigh of relief, and turned his head and shouted: "Escort Her Royal Highness the princess back to the city!" ”

At the sound of an order, more than 100 Qin cavalry rushed forward, separating Yingzhen's carriage from the five hundred Chu armor, and the Qin army armor soldiers guarding outside the city gate and at the head of the city also raised their halberds and crossbows in their hands intentionally or unintentionally.

Seeing the appearance of the Qin army as if he was facing a great enemy, Bai Lixian couldn't help frowning.

At that moment, Baili Xian hugged his fist to Meng Yan, and said loudly: "Brother Tianfang, Her Royal Highness the princess has been sent back, since the old Qin people in Jiuyuan City are not welcome, we will not enter the city." ”

Meng Yan was slightly stunned when he heard this, and his face also showed hesitation.

Reason told Meng Yan that now is the best time to return to Chu, for the sake of the old Qin people in Jiuyuan City, it is indeed time to serve the Great Chu, but emotionally, Meng Yan can't turn around, after all, the Meng family has been a loyal minister of the Qin State for hundreds of years, and suddenly wants to turn their backs on Qin and return to Chu, this decision is indeed a little difficult.

Bai Lixian also knew that it would not be easy for Meng Yan to make this decision.

At that moment, Bai Lixian smiled slightly, and said: "Brother Tianfang, junior brother farewell." ”,

After saying that, Baili Xian turned his horse's head and walked away with five hundred Chu Jia, seeing the figures of Bai Li Xian and Bai Li Yishui brothers and sisters gradually moving away, Meng Yan couldn't help but feel lost.

##########

The Chu army camp.

In one night's effort, the Chu army had already set up a strong camp, the fence was erected, the trench was dug, and even the deer in the trench was arranged.

Wei Yu sighed and said, "General, it seems that Meng Yu still doesn't want to return to Chu. ”

Xiang Zhuang said with emotion: "This shows that Meng Yan is a true man who attaches great importance to affection, he doesn't make a decision, if he makes the decision to return to Chu, then in this life and this life, I am afraid that he will never betray again!" There is another sentence that Xiang Zhuang did not say, if Meng died and returned to Da Chu, then in the future, Meng is likely to protect Xiang like protecting the Ying family.

Compared with the five thousand Great Qin Iron Cavalry in Jiuyuan City, Xiang Zhuang obviously values the Mengshi family motto tradition more!

Although the five thousand Qin iron cavalry is a combat force that cannot be ignored, it is only a combat force, at this stage, five thousand cavalry is indeed a decisive combat force, but in the future, only five thousand cavalry is really nothing, however, if you get the allegiance of Meng, then it is likely to be a generation of loyal Mengshi family!

Wei Yu stroked his long hair and said, "Old Man believes that General Meng Yu will definitely make a wise choice in the end. ”

Xiang Zhuang nodded and said solemnly: "However, Meng Yan needs time to make a decision, and he can't be in a hurry. ”

While speaking, Bai Lixian had already returned to the camp with five hundred Chu Jia, while Wu She, dressed in light clothes, quietly went out of the gate under the escort of two entourages, and went straight to the camp in the north of the city.

In the camp of Lou Fu, King Lou Fu was losing his temper, and even his favorite orchid was beaten.

The reason is very simple, because early this morning, the Linhu tribe really pulled out the village and retreated, and they didn't say hello.

After the king of Lou Fu got the news, he was so angry that he was like thunder, if it wasn't for the uncle who said that he would stop him with his fate, he would have to use the Lou Fu army to hunt down and kill the Lin Hu tribe.

If it weren't for what Uncle Gong said, Lou Nuren and Lin Hu might have fought by now.

The Lin Hu people retreated and left without saying hello, and they fell into an embarrassing dilemma when they went downstairs, continue to stay in Jiuyuan, facing the Central Plains army and the old Qin people of Jiuyuan alone, the pressure is too great, but if they retreat, it seems that it is useless, is it that the building is annoying and returns to the old camp in the north, and the Central Plains people will let them go?

Uncle said and sighed, and persuaded Lou to annoy the king: "King, don't hesitate any longer, go to the Huns." ”

King Lou Fu's eyes froze, frowned and said unhappily: "Military advisor, do you really have such a deep enmity with the people of the Central Plains?" ”

Uncle Shuo shook his head and said gloomily: "Although the enmity with the Central Plains people is irresolvable, it is completely for the good of the king to persuade the king to defect to the Huns." ”

Lou Fu Wang snorted angrily: "You should talk about it." ”

Uncle said: "The Central Plains people are arrogant and arrogant, for the races outside the Central Plains, they have always been called Donghu, Xirong, Nanban or Beidi, if the king defects to the Central Plains, at most he can only be an inferior person, but if the king votes for the Huns, no matter how bad he is, he can also be a household or a captain, and even a little king!" ”

King Lou Fu said: "How can you be credulous if you kill your father and usurp the throne?" ”

Uncle said: "Mao Dun can kill his father on the throne, it just shows that he is an extraordinary hero, after ascending to the throne and then attacking Donghu in the east, chasing the Yue clan in the west, and then driving Ding Ling in the north, expanding thousands of miles in one fell swoop, if the king now defects to the Huns, he can still keep his honorable position, if the Hun army goes south in the future, I am afraid it will be ......."

King Lou Fu was silent, he knew that what his uncle said made sense, but he wanted him to suddenly give up the throne and go to be the Hun Shan under the account, Du Wei or Xiao Wang, but he was really a little unwilling, just when King Lou Fu hesitated, suddenly an attendant came in and reported: "King, there is a messenger from the Central Plains who wants to see." ”

The uncle frowned and said, "King, it's better not to see you." ”

King Lou Fu disagreed: "What's the harm in seeing it? ”,

After that, the king of Lou Fu instructed his attendants again: "Go, invite the envoy of the Central Plains to come in." ”

The attendant took the order, and in less than a moment, he led a Tsing Yi Xiushi into the big tent, and the king of Lou Fu just sat cross-legged on the tiger skin mattress with a big grin, and did not get up to salute, but the Tsing Yi Xiushi did not care at all, and said to himself: "In Xia Xuyi Wushu, on the order of the general of Da Chu Xiang, there is something important to discuss with the king." ”

King Lou Fu naturally didn't understand, but the uncle said that he was surprised when he heard it, and it was Chu Jun who had been making trouble for a long time?

After listening to the translation of what his uncle said, King Lou Fu was also a little surprised, and asked, "You are the Chu army, not the Han army?" ”

For the Chu and Han hegemony in the Central Plains, although the king of Lou Fu is far away in Jiuyuan, he has also heard of it slightly, and now it seems that it is not the army of the Han King who wants to recover the Hetao, but the Chu army that has suffered a defeat in the Central Plains has fled to the Hetao.

About this matter, Xiang Zhuang has no intention of concealing it, in fact, this matter cannot be concealed at all, or it will not be long before the meticulous work of the Han army will infiltrate the Hetao on a large scale, rather than being exposed by others at that time, it is better to admit it generously now, at least it also seems that the Chu army is bright and open-minded, isn't it?

At that moment, Wu Shi responded: "Our army is just passing through Jiuyuan, and we want to take advantage of this place to rest for a while, before winter, we will definitely leave, so the king does not have to be hostile to our army at all, if possible, our army can even take out silk, cloth, tea, iron and other goods to trade with your department." ”

After listening to the translation of what the uncle said, the king of Lou was stunned, and the heart that hung up finally fell back into his stomach. I've been worried about myself for a long time! 【Provided by Sailing Fengyan】
