Chapter 310: Things Are Wrong
The outskirts of Yingcheng.
Yun Qu rode his horse forward, looking at the people who were avoiding on both sides, and suddenly a trace of cowardice suddenly appeared in his heart.
The army under the jurisdiction of the Yun clan was 30,000, and Yun Qu poured out, and the queue of soldiers behind him was as long as a dragon, and there was no end in sight.
The banner of the cloud word is flying, but the coach under the banner is hesitant.
"Hu'er, what did your aunt say?"
Unlike Yun Qu, Yun Hu's face was full of spring breeze pride.
Yingcheng is the most prosperous city in the Chu State, where it has the best wine and the most beautiful women.
And he, Yunhu, is about to enter this city as the protagonist and accept the admiring eyes of everyone.
"My aunt sent a message saying that Cai Tong asked us to garrison the army outside Yingcheng, and has prepared a place for us to garrison."
Yun Hu rode his horse, turned his head, and glanced at Yun Qu.
"Father, what's wrong with you?"
"I just think we've had a rough ride!"
"Smooth?"
Yunhu didn't understand what was wrong with going well.
"Father don't worry, my aunt said in the letter that Cai Tong's old guy is going to hold a banquet for us to celebrate!"
"Hu'er, this is not Ximi, don't talk nonsense."
Yun Qu's face was pale, and it was rumored recently that Cai Tong had become more and more moody. At this time, Yun Qu was reluctant to take a little risk.
Looking at Yun Qu's serious face, Yun Hu closed his mouth stupidly.
"Is there any news from Mu Guhong?"
Yunhu didn't understand his father, when he just left Ximi, he was in high spirits. But the closer he got to Yingcheng, the more cautious Yun Qu became, even to the point of being a little suspicious.
Isn't Mu Guhong's news my aunt's news?
Although he thought so in his heart, Yunhu still recounted it.
Mr. Mu's letter also told him about the situation in Yingcheng, saying that the courtiers in the country were panicking at the moment. He's already started to contact a few people to try to rally a group of supporters for us and the others. ”
"What else?"
"In addition, Mr. Mu also said that the lord has become more and more moody recently, and even because of political reasons, he has dismissed several cronies in a row, and they are all old ministers who have been with him for more than 20 years!"
Yun Qu nodded, finally feeling a little relieved.
It was getting closer and closer to Yingcheng, and the envoy sent by Cai Tong to greet the Yun Clan's army was already waiting ten miles away.
And what put Yun Qu at ease was that Mu Guhong was also among them.
After a salute, Yun Qu pulled Mu Guhong and asked.
"How's it going?"
Yun Qu arched his hand, a smile on his face.
"Don't worry, lord!"
In just four words, Yun Qu finally let go of the last trace of doubt in his heart.
Chu Hou Fuzhong.
Yun Qu followed the soldiers in the house to Cai Tong's apartment, and before he could get closer, he smelled a pungent smell of medicine.
The Yun clan's army of 30,000 was stationed outside Yingcheng, and for the sake of insurance, Yun Qu did not let Yun Hu enter the city with him.
Although Yun Qu had already anticipated Cai Tong's illness, when he really saw the scene in front of him, he found that Cai Tong's illness was even more serious than he imagined.
On the sickbed, Cai Tong squinted his eyes, as if he had just been angry, and at this time, the red tide on his face receded, revealing a little pale.
Yun Qu's sister was on the side, holding a fan, waiting carefully, and when she saw Yun Qu coming, she gently held Cai Tong's hand.
"Master Hou, my brother is here."
Cai Tong opened his eyes and forcibly supported himself to sit up, with a wave of joy on his face.
"It's Xiao Quzi here!"
"Lord, it's too late for the end!"
"It's just in time, it's just in time!" Cai Tong laughed loudly, "Yang Xian Xiao'er has been staring at Jingzhou just like his old son. Now that Yang Xian is outside the Pingling Mausoleum, my Chu country is in turmoil. But what about those people? I've been raising them for so many years, and I don't even have an idea. Or Cai'er is right, at this time, the only one who can believe is her own family. ”
Cai Tongdong said one mouth after another, and began to tear it apart ramblingly.
"Say back then! Your father and I are like-minded. At that time, he was the county lieutenant of Ximi, and I was a loose cultivator who was nothing. We met Yu Wei, fought against Chengtian Dao together, worked under Duan Hui together, and later crusaded against Jin Xiu together. Over the years, he and you have been guarding Ximi City for me, which is really hard. What a pity! Huan Wu is forcing you step by step, I was not by his side when your father died of illness......."
Cai Tong said and spoke, his eyes lost their brilliance, and he fell asleep.
Cai Tong's old appearance made Yun Qu, who was kneeling on the ground and listening to him all the time, very depressed. For a while, he didn't kneel, nor did he stand.
"Big brother, get up! Master Hou still has to sleep for a while, you can go out with me to talk! ”
Yun Cai is Yun Qu's sister, but she is also his main mother. As soon as she spoke, Yun Qu stood up, followed her Miaoman's figure, and walked into the side room.
The two sat down, the maid of the Hou Mansion served hot tea, and Yun Cai broke them away.
"Go down first! I'm going to say something considerate to my brother. ”
"Yes, Mistress!"
Seeing everyone retreating, Yun Qu spoke: "Cai'er, I haven't seen you for many years, you have lost a lot of money, and you have matured a lot. ”
In Yun Qu's memory, Yun Cai was still a rebellious little girl. I haven't seen her for many years, and now her demeanor and demeanor are extraordinary, and there is no shadow of the year between her every move, which makes Yun Qu almost think that she is a stranger.
Yun Cai's face was a little indifferent, and there was no trace of the overflowing excitement that Yun Qu had when he saw his relatives.
"Yes! It's been twelve years since I married Hou Ye! Ying'er is already eleven years old. ”
Seeing Yun Cai like this, Yun Qu's face darkened.
"Cai'er, you still resent me for marrying you to the lord. You know, I was forced to do so. ”
"I know what my brother is up to. I also know that as a member of the Yun family, I have to sacrifice for the Yun family at a critical time. At this time, the most important thing is to let Ying'er inherit the position of Marquis of Chu. Otherwise, all the efforts I have made over the years will be in vain. ”
Yun Cai said indifferently, as if everything in the past had passed in the past.
Yun Qu breathed a sigh of relief, moved some distance forward, came to Yun Cai's side, and whispered: "Sister, don't worry, I am ready to assassinate Cai Yun." This time, I will definitely not let Cai Yun return to Yingcheng alive. ”
As long as Cai Yun dies, then Cai Tong can only make Cai Ying the son. At that time, the Yun clan's 30,000 troops were stationed outside the city, which was enough to grasp the situation and control the Chu State.
"Then there's Brother Law."
Yun Cai picked up the teacup, blew slightly, sipped some tea, and behaved so steadily that Yun Qu almost had a feeling that he couldn't see through.
