Frustration makes people grow.

The shame of Luoyang was defeated, so that Xiang Zhuang fell from the young general of Chu who was touted by everyone to the object of everyone's ridicule, and under the strong gap, Xiang Zhuang began to be reborn, and the reckless part of the original personality was slowly fading, replaced by calm and decisiveness.

After returning to Pengcheng, looking at the elated colleagues around him, Xiang Zhuang was very depressed, in his eyes, these Chu generals who had not formally fought with the elite of the Qin army fell into blind self-confidence, they had not suffered from the Qin army, and they did not know the strength of the Qin people.

"Young General, the envoys of the princes are being feasted in the front hall, why not share the profits?" At the entrance of the Chu Palace, the jubilant Yu Ziqi came out of his sister-in-law and called Xiang Zhuangdao.

When one person attains the Tao, the chicken and dog ascend to heaven.

Yu Ziqi was able to squeeze into the end of the five generals of the Chu army, relying on Yu Ji's influence, in terms of ability, he Mo said that compared with Yingbu, Zhong Liwu, and Long Ji, there is still a gap between him and Ji Bu, and he is actually on par with Huan Chu, Zhou Yin, Ding Gong, etc. among the generals of the Chu army.

Xiang Zhuang glanced at Yu Ziqi coldly, and stood up and said: "General Yu wants to go, just go, Zhuang is responsible for patrolling the city, and he doesn't dare to slack off a little." ”

Seeing Xiang Zhuang's indifferent attitude, Yu Ziqi had no intention of inviting him, so he only responded casually: "In this way, there is Major General Lao." With that, Yu Ziqi immediately led a few attendants towards the brightly lit front hall, where a famous scholar and a high Confucian were touting each other, hoping to use their fame to win more Haode treatment and higher salaries.

Princes congratulate.

In the middle of the hall, Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, wore a purple and gold crown with his hair tied up, two red hairbands separated from the left and right, and wore a pale yellow silk robe, and the corner of the dragon pattern on the corner of the robe leaned out of half of his body on the side of the case, as if he was looking at everyone present coldly.

To his left is Fan Zeng, an old man with a gray beard, who single-handedly pioneered the system of sub-feudal after spending the proudest year of his life. finally showed his old state, and now he is more of a symbol of Corporal Xiang Yu Lixian, in order to attract more people of insight to defect.

In the right hand position of Xiang Yu, is Xiang Tuo, the great minister of the Western Chu State, who has always been a well-known real power figure of the Xiang family, who has been very active in recent times, and has gradually become the core figure of the Western Chu State.

Further down the seats, including Ji Bu, Lu Chen, Shusun Tong, Liu Jing and other important officials of the Chu State, and then envoys from all kinds of princes. Many of these people are local celebrities.

Among them, the most striking is the former prince Zhang Er, a famous man from Wei who is telling the defeat of the Hedong Army in an emotional tone, and the brutality of the Qin army in dealing with the Kwantung soldiers, as for the Hedong Army's rampage on the way to the west, it was ignored by Zhang Er intentionally or unintentionally.

Zhang Er came to congratulate Liu Bang as the envoy of the Han King Liu Bang, and after Li Shiqi died and Lu Jia voted for Qin, Liu Bang used Zhang Er as a lobbyist to negotiate and lobby with various princes. For this errand, Zhang Er has gradually changed from the embarrassment at the beginning to the current happy acceptance.

Among them: Liu Bang's heavy treatment is one of the reasons, there is no money, what a celebrity. What kind of Confucianism is a floating cloud, if Zhang Er wants to compete with his old friend Chen Yu again, fame is a necessary condition.

"Sir. There are countless healthy horses in the pastures in Hexi, and the east of my river is a land for farming, and only post stations and large households have horses to feed. According to what you said, the iron cavalry of the Qin people can't be stopped, if this is killed from Hexi, how can we resist? Hearing the endless boasting, Liu Jing stood up and asked.

"Dare to ask, who are you? Don't you know how to respect the elderly? Zhang Er waved his robe and glanced at his young rival.

The person in front of him is not tall, and his appearance is a little unsightly, but his tone is not good, among the envoys seated, who has the oldest qualifications, it belongs to him Zhang Er is the first batch of people to raise troops to resist the tyrannical Qin, this nameless person is not respectful to Zhang Gong, and he even dares to speak disrespectfully.

"Qi Di Liu Jing. Dare to ask Zhang Gong to teach. Liu Jing looked directly at Zhang Er, changed his mouth and asked again.

"Haha, there are horses in the pass, I have people in the eastern part of the country, in the past, the tyrannical Qin had 400,000 troops, the overlord gave an order, and the princes from all over the country responded, and the Qin people were broken with millions of people to giant deer and thorn plains, and now, under the command of the overlord, there are countless fierce soldiers, if the banner of Qin is raised again, I believe that the princes from all walks of life will rise up and echo, so, it will be a big thing!" Zhang Er spoke with indignation, and his face was excited.

Hearing Zhang Er say this, the overlord Xiang Yu, who had been silent, flashed sharply in his pupils, and the princes and envoys present were also talking and whispering to each other.

Zhang Er's words were vague, but the meaning was clear, that is, he proposed that Xiang Yu once again follow the example of the shipwreck five years ago, with the Chu army as the main force, with the princes' soldiers as the auxiliary, and launched a life-and-death decisive battle with the Qin army.

A year ago, Xiang Yu was instigated by Liu Bang, raised troops to attack Qin for the dragon and revenge, as a result, the two battles of Luoyang and Tiger Prison Pass, not to mention the loss of the Chu army, the five major generals under his command broke two members, only Ji Bu and Yu Zi survived, and now after a year of rest, the vitality of the Chu army has just recovered, Liu Bang can't wait to pick it up again, does he think that everyone in the world is stupid, only he is smart? Xiang Yu, who saw through Liu Bang's tricks, was dissatisfied with Zhang Er.

As for the envoys of the princes, each has his own calculations.

The Qin people are so powerful that they are all afraid, if Xiang Yu orders to go to battle, they have no choice but to lead the troops to follow, now Xiang Yu's intentions are unknown, but Zhang Er obeyed Liu Bang's order and swished, which made them indignant.

"Zhang Gong, the King of Han has now been taken by the Qin people in Hanzhong, I don't know if he can still be called the King of Han, if it is not proper, why not raise a large army to attack Qin, but occupy my southern county?" In the midst of the confusion, one of the envoys stood up, pointed to his nose and shouted a rebuke.

Everyone looked for a voice, but it was Sui He, the envoy of Wei Bao, the king of Western Wei, who had been the minister of the king of Linjiang Gongao, and was dissatisfied with Liu Bang's false benevolence and false righteousness and occupation of Nanjun.

Zhang Er's old face was slightly red when he was reprimanded by Sui He's sentence, and it took a long time to hesitate and say: "Qin is brutal in nature, and he has to advance inch by inch, and the army of the King of Han unified Nanyang and Nanjun, just to block the road for the Qin people to go out of the Wuguan and advance eastward, as for the death of the King of Linjiang, it was purely an accident, and the King of Han is also very sorry." ”

A word of apology.

Represents all the meanings.

Gong Ao is dead, a dead man just wants to fight unevenly, and no one will help him again, on the contrary, Liu Bang is different, sitting on two large counties, as many as 200,000 people under his command, with this strength, except for Xiang Yu, other princes want to say that Liu Bang is not, and they have to carefully measure their own weight.

Seeing that no one responded, he had to sit back stupidly, after all, he was now a lobbyist for Wei Bao, and it was okay for the former employer to stand up and express his attitude, if he was really entangled, not to mention other people, even Wei Bao would be unhappy.

"Today is the king's day of great joy, so don't mention anything unpleasant. The king is very grateful for all the distinguished guests who have come from afar, and as for the other things, how about thinking about them in the long run? Come, and drink this bottle full. Xiang Yu stood up suddenly, held the dragon-shaped wine bottle in his hand high, and then drank it all with his head up.

The crisp wine fell down his beard and splashed on the new clothes on Xiang Yu's chest, like a ball of thick ink slowly spreading, occasionally, getting bigger and bigger, getting lighter and lighter, changing into the appearance of the territory of Chu for a while, and expanding into the appearance of all parts of the Kanto region for a while.

"Congratulations to the overlord!" Seeing that Xiang Yu was displeased, the envoys stood up one by one in fear, whether they could drink it or not, they all frowned and dried up the wine in front of them.

Zhang Er was blocked by Xiang Yu's words, and now he wants to be Su Qin's connivance against Qin, and his heart suddenly became depressed and unhappy, and the envoys of several small princes on the left and right originally intended to talk to him for a few words, but now looking at his expression, he immediately quietly opened the case away for a while.

After several mutual persuasions, everyone was already slightly drunk, Zhang Er drank alone, and left the table early after a while.

Good times are short.

Without the annoying guy Zhang Er, the celebrities specially hired by the princes from all walks of life gradually put down their burdens and began to persuade each other to drink.

Whether it is Qidi, Ludi, Yanbei, or Great Wei and Zhao, as long as they report their names, they will have a connection with each other, and even if they don't work for this prince, they can go to another family to find a good messenger.

Among these people, it is not that there are no capable people, such as Sui He and Liu Jing, who are eloquent and capable enough, for the famous Zhang Er, fame or something is enough, his purpose is to lobby to resist Qin, hoping that the princes' alliance can defeat the Qin army again, in order to expect that he can also obtain the real power and status of a prince and king as before.

For celebrities like Sui He and Liu Jing, they do not have the luxury of becoming bosses, and their positioning is to play a job with a higher salary, so as to make their lives more chic.

Moontop woodtops.

Xiang Yu swayed out of the front hall, and the cold north wind outside suddenly penetrated into his body, making his eyes suddenly tighten, and his heavy pupils looked at the Chu Palace's bedroom, where the lights were still on, which made Xiang Yu's heart warm.

"Overlord, Madame has been waiting in the dormitory for a long time-!" A concerned greeting came from the front, this was Xiang Zhuang's voice.

"It's Brother Zhuang, who has grown up. Go and entertain the princes' guests, and do not neglect them. Xiang Yu patted Xiang Zhuang in military uniform with satisfaction and ordered.

At this moment, under the reflection of the moonlight, although the face of the overlord Xiang Yu was still drunk, a pair of heavy pupils were exceptionally bright. (To be continued......)
