King Xiyi slowly walked behind Jiang Tianba and said quietly: "After entering the king's camp, you can't get out without the king's permission." ”

"I'm a big Yan, what's the use of you putting me here? It's just a waste of food. Jiang Tianba smiled indifferently.

"If you promise to serve this king, it won't be a waste."

"I already said just now, I won't take refuge in Xiyi."

When King Xiyi saw that he still didn't know what to do, he couldn't help but be furious, and he wanted to behead this person immediately.

"Aren't you afraid that this king will kill you?"

Jiang Tianba is still so calm: "This life is saved by the king, if the king wants to get it back, there is no other thing to say, you can do it." ”

"You, do you think this king doesn't dare?" King Xiyi was furious, and casually drew the knife in the hand of the guard guarding the door and put it on his neck, "The reason why this king saved you is that I hope you can be thrown into Xiyi's tent. ”

"Slow down, king!"

Just as he was about to make a move, Mu Beituo hurriedly walked over, rushed over and grabbed King Xiyi's wrist, and said eagerly: "The king must not be impulsive!" ”

King Xiyi pushed him away, "Don't stop this king! This person toasts and doesn't eat and drink, and this king has to give him some color to see! ”

"King! General Jiang had just escaped from the Dayan military camp, and his heart was inevitably unable to slow down, and he hoped that the king would be considerate of the collision, and leave him in the camp first, telling him to calm down, maybe he would figure it out in a few days? ”

As he spoke, Mu Beituo lowered his voice again, "Jiang Tianba is a rare warrior, if he can serve Xiyi, he will definitely be able to be the king's right-hand man in the future, but if you are patient, why not wait for two more days?" ”

Listening to them, Jiang Tianba stood up straight, his eyes did not squint, but his eyes flashed, and a flash of light flashed from the bottom of his eyes.

After persuasion, King Xiyi finally put away his knife and commanded in a hateful voice: "Come here, take Jiang Tianba back to the camp tent, take care of it, and no one is allowed to enter or leave to visit without the permission of this king." ”

Jiang Tianba has not recovered yet, it is not appropriate to do it, even if he is cured, this is in the military camp, he has thousands of troops and horses, and he can't escape alone, so he simply doesn't resist and follows back to the camp.

Mu Beituo pulled King Xiyi into the tent, poured tea to let him dissipate his anger, and waited for him to calm down a little before saying: "The king doesn't have to worry, I have already thought of a good way, which will definitely make Jiang Tianba hate Emperor Dayan and serve the king instead." ”

"What's the solution?" King Xiyi hurriedly asked.

Mu Beituo smiled, leaned over and whispered a few words, King Xiyi's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he said, "Then give it a try." ”

More than half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

Jiang Tianba was locked in the camp tent, surrounded by guarded soldiers, he couldn't leave even half a step, he was already suffocated, but he was alone, he couldn't escape if he wanted to, so he had to pace back and forth in the camp impatiently.

Suddenly there was a sound of footsteps outside, and someone came in with a curtain, but it was a subordinate of King Xiyi.

"General Jiang, the king wants to see you immediately, come with me!"

Jiang Tianba then came to the camp tent of King Xiyi, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw that Mu Beituo and King Wuyun were also in the tent.

Glancing at them, he bowed down and said, "Jiang Tianba see the king." ”

"Brother Jiang, are you here......" King Xiyi raised his eyes to look at him, and before he finished speaking, he heard the other party say: "If the king wants to persuade Zai to take refuge in Xiyi, then don't waste your tongue, Zai Xia will not agree." ”

"This king didn't want to tell you this," King Xiyi paused, his eyes filled with compassion, and he said slowly: "This king just got bad news, it's about your mother and sister in your hometown. ”

Jiang Tianba changed his indifferent attitude at this time, his face changed suddenly, and he hurriedly asked, "But what happened to them?" ”

"Alas......" King Xiyi opened his mouth, and stopped talking, "they, they have been beheaded by Emperor Dayan." ”

"What did you say?" Jiang Tianba's eyes widened, he stepped forward and grabbed King Xiyi's collar, and said angrily: "You are talking nonsense! It is impossible for the emperor to kill my mother and sister, even if I really betrayed Dayan, he should not be angry with them, they are innocent! The emperor just listened to the rumors and misunderstood me, and he was not an unreasonable tyrant, how could he do such a ruthless thing? You must be lying to me! ”

King Xiyi didn't move, let him pull at his clothes and scold angrily, his eyes looked straight at him, and he didn't feel half distracted.

Mu Beituo and the Dark Cloud King on the side hurriedly rushed up and pulled Jiang Tianba away.

The Dark Cloud King roared, "Jiang Tianba, are you confused? What is the king doing to lie to you about such a thing? Emperor Dayan killed your family, this is a true thing, if you don't believe it, you can go out and inquire! ”

"No, I'm going back, I'm going to ask the emperor, I'm going to ask him!" Jiang Tianba muttered to himself that he was about to go out.

Mu Beituo hurriedly stopped him and said, "General Jiang, don't be stupid, if you go back now, what's the difference between looking for death?" Do you really think the emperor is a benevolent monarch? Since his accession to the throne, he has killed fewer civil and military courtiers and local officials? Especially in the past two years, how many people have been beheaded by him on trumped-up charges? Don't you know? ”

This series of questions hit Jiang Tianba's head hard like a stick after a stick, he looked up to the sky and wailed, and sat on the ground, the nine-foot man who usually didn't cry was extremely sad, and he couldn't help crying.

The other three just watched him, exchanged glances with each other, and all exited the tent.

By the time Jiang Tianba packed up his emotions and came out, it was already an hour later.

He came to the special camp tent of King Xiyi, bowed down and made a big salute: "I lost control of my emotions for a while, I offended the king, and I ask for forgiveness!" ”

King Xiyi looked at him with a smile, waved his hand and said, "What did Brother Jiang say?" It is human nature for you to be sad about the loss of a loved one, and I just hope that you can cheer up as soon as possible. ”

"I will." Jiang Tianba said, with a little chill in his voice.

"Then you go and rest first, people who have just gone through great sorrow need to rest." The king of Xiyi does not seem to have revisited the matter of taking refuge in Xiyi.

Jiang Tianba stopped and took the initiative to mention: "I think about it, if the king doesn't like it, I will be under the king's account from now on, and I am willing to serve Xiyi as a dog and horse." ”

"Really?" King Xiyi's eyes lit up, and Huo Ran stood up.

"Yes, though, there's a request down there."

"But it doesn't hurt to say it."

Jiang Tianba paused for a moment and replied: "I hope that in the future, after the army enters Xilin Pass and captures Emperor Dayan, the king will allow him to be killed and take revenge." ”

"Of course it's fine!" King Xiyi agreed very happily, and then showed some doubts on his face, "However, just attacking Xilin Pass can capture the emperor?" Mo said that now Xiyi's army is only half of Dayan's, even if the situation is reversed, it may not be able to catch him, right? ”

Jiang Tianba smiled coldly and said confidently: "If the Xiyi army raids Xilin Pass and is unprepared, it is not impossible to win more with less, as for Emperor Dayan, as long as the army breaks through Xilin Pass, it will be caught sooner or later in the future, and I am not in a hurry, I just said that." ”

"According to what you say, do you have a plan to capture Xilin Pass?" King Xiyi asked eagerly, his joy overflowing.

"Yes, I am also a senior general in the Dayan Army, and I am very familiar with the terrain and defense of Xilin Pass, where the troops are strong, where the defense is slightly weak, where it is easy to defend and where it is difficult to attack, I know it clearly."

Speaking of this, Jiang Tianba faded away from sadness, and became a little proud, and a little ruthless in his pride.

"However, everything still depends on the king, believe me or not, I can draw out the defense map and send it to the king, as for whether to raid Xilin Pass, when to raid, it is all up to the king."

"Okay, okay." King Xiyi was overjoyed, "This king will definitely consider it carefully, and this king will never forget your request." ”

Jiang Tianba showed a satisfied look, hugged his fists and said: "Then thank you to the king, I will go down and draw a picture." ”

Looking at his figure walking away, King Xiyi couldn't help but touch the beard on his chin, and began to imagine the scene of Xiyi breaking through Xilin Pass not long after.

The last revenge is finally expected to be avenged.

As for Jiang Tianba, after the completion of the work, whether to kill or stay depends on his performance.

It didn't take long for Mu Beituo to come to the king of Xiyi and ask about Jiang Tianba, and the king of Xiyi told him about Jiang Tianba's defection to Xiyi and promised to draw a canvas defense map.

What King Xiyi didn't expect was that Mu Beituo not only did not show joy when he heard this, but his face was solemn.

"My lord, I think it's suspicious."

"Suspicious?" King Xiyi looked at him puzzled, "What's suspicious?" Do you think Jiang Tianba is pretending to take refuge? ”

Mu Beituo furrowed his brows and did not answer, which was regarded as a tacit acquiescence.

King Xiyi wondered: "Jiang Tianba must hate Emperor Dayan very much because of the loss of his relatives, if he wants to take revenge, he can naturally only take refuge in Xiyi, how can he still go to Dayan's side?" Are you too worried, the third prince? ”

"Maybe you're thinking too much, right?" Mu Beituo sighed, he faintly always felt that something was wrong, maybe he was left a shadow by Mu Liancheng's treachery and cunning, so that now he always wants to think about things and west, and he is tied.

"But the king, in the next suggestion, it is better for you to send someone to closely monitor Jiang Tianba's every move, lest he play any tricks, it is always right to be careful."

King Xiyi felt that this was reasonable, so he bowed his head and said, "This king listens to you." ”

After returning to the camp, Jiang Tianba had to sit in front of the desk with pen and ink to draw the canvas defense map, and worked tirelessly, and it took only two days to finish the painting, and personally handed it over to the king of Xiyi.

King Xiyi was overjoyed when he got the defense map, and even though he named Jiang Tianba as General Zuo, he said that he would reuse this person.

Jiang Tianba's resignation was unsuccessful several times, so he had to accept it.

The next day, the king of Xiyi held a military meeting in the Zhongjun tent and decided to set off in ten days to attack Xilin Pass again.
