It had been a few days before the front line transmitted the news of the capture of Yingdu back to Xianyang.

After reading the report, General Yingzheng put it on the table, turned his head to look in the direction of Yingdu, and his eyes were full of sighs and emotion.

"He committed suicide, and he didn't want to return to Qin again." Ying Zheng said with emotion.

Ziyou looked at the military newspaper on the table and didn't reply, what Ying Zheng said he was referring to Changping Jun Xiong Qi, the first person to lend a hand when Ying Zheng was most helpless.

"Everyone has his own life, his heart is always Chu State, without today's battle, there will inevitably be a war in the future." Lu Buwei said.

"That's what the middle father said." Ying Zheng sat down again and said.

"The battle in Yingdu is over, in order to stabilize Yang Duan and the Chu army under his command, Wu Anjun and Wang Jian let Yang Duanhe take the Chu army to continue to attack Changsha in the south. Chang Wenjun has arrived in Shouchun, and Shouchun will soon send back the news. Ziyou said.

"There is no rush in the affairs of the Chu State, now we should talk about another matter." Ying Zheng looked at Ziyou.

Lu Buwei looked at Ziyou with a smile on his face and didn't speak, and Ziyou was a little puzzled by the two of them looking at him inexplicably.

"Is there anything wrong with me?" Ziyou asked, pointing to himself.

"Bogu and Han Fei both told me that the war in Chu is over, and the teacher's marriage should also be held. The teacher is the mainstay of my Qin country, and he has made countless contributions to my Qin country, so the widow wants to make this marriage a special one. Ying Zheng said.

Hearing that it was his own marriage, Ziyou didn't know what to say for a while, and the whole person suddenly felt a little at a loss. From his previous life to now, he has been in love at most, and as for getting married, he has never experienced it once, and he himself doesn't know what to do.

Lu Buwei saw Ziyou's nervousness and helplessness, so he laughed out loud

"I really didn't expect that the Tai Lieutenant, who has always been calm and composed, would also be nervous and at a loss, hahahaha."

Ziyou rolled his eyes helplessly, he still attached great importance to getting married Ziyou, especially this time he was going to marry several at once.

"There is no need for the teacher to worry about this matter, the little sage village has sent back the news, and when the time comes, Master Xun and the head of Fu Nian will come, and they will bring special people to come over, and Chang Feng and Shaozuofu will also assist when the time comes, and the widow has already let the master of Taoism calculate the day. Now I will send the teacher to talk to a few teachers about this matter, and the teacher doesn't have to worry about other things. Ying Zheng also used the title of teacher.

"Then it's up to the king." Ziyou is also not polite, although it is his own marriage, but it is always wrong to hand it over to a professional person.

"Since Master Xun is here, there is no need for the old man for this matter, and the old man is waiting to drink the wedding wine." Lu Buwei said with a smile.

"That's nature." Ziyou said with a smile.

Seeing that it was okay, Ziyou left the Qin Palace, and returned to his mansion.

After Mo Crow returned to the Wangshi's Mansion, he turned back to the previous coachman porter, sitting in the gatehouse with a whole pot of wine all day long, eating dried melons and fruits that others respected, drinking fine wine, and going home to sleep with his daughter-in-law at night. And Bai Feng was standing on the Wangshi's Mansion as a guard to guard the surroundings.

"Sir is back." Ink Raven put down the flask and said.

Looking at the ink crow who was about to evolve into a drunkard, Ziyou said

"If you drink like this again, you can pack up and get ready to live with your brother's white horse."

There are many drunkards in the entire Xianyang City, but the biggest drunkard is a horse, which is Han Fei's white horse. When Han Fei was drunk and dreamed of death in Xianyang and Jing Ke, he didn't forget his white horse, and took the white horse to drink every day, and over time, everyone knew that Han Fei had such a white horse. After Han Fei entered the Tingwei Mansion, he couldn't drink during working hours, so he rarely appeared in the wine shop.

But Han Fei goes to work, and the white horse doesn't have to go to work, so there is a magical landscape in the whole Xianyang City, an old white horse that no one is leading around all day long in various wine shops and restaurants in Xianyang City, and the owner of the wine shop and restaurant not only did not drive it away, but instead treated it as an ancestor, and every day it was fed with good wine and good forage, and over time, the name of the biggest drunkard in Xianyang City was also given to this white horse.

"That's not necessary, the Ninth Prince's Mansion is not as good as our Wangshi's Mansion." Mo Crow shook his head again and again.

"Don't drink all the time during this time, it's time to get down to business." Ziyou said.

Hearing Zi lobbying about business, the blush on Mo Crow's face suddenly disappeared, and his original frivolous appearance became serious.

"What's the matter, sir?" Ink Raven asked.

"I'm getting married."

After Ziyou finished speaking, without waiting for the stunned ink crow to react, he went straight into the palace of the king. And the ink crow was still stunned in place, a little at a loss.

After entering the Wangshi's Mansion, Ziyou came directly to the back garden, and when there was usually nothing to do, Snow Girl, Scarlet Smoke, Flame Spirit Ji, Shao Si Ming, and Startled Salamander would be here. In the back garden, Snow Maiden and Scarlet Smoke are playing chess, Shao Siming is fiddling with flowers and plants, Flame Spirit Ji is feeding Rolling and helping Rolling comb her hair, and Startled Salamander is looking at the books in her hand.

Seeing Ziyou enter the garden, everyone just glanced at it and then continued to busy themselves, Ziyou, who felt that he was being ignored, smiled helplessly, stepped into the garden and coughed lightly at the five people.

The five of them looked at Ziyou, who looked at them and wanted to say about the marriage, but they didn't know what to say just when they wanted to speak. Seeing Ziyou's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, Concubine Yan asked

"Is there something going on?"

"It's nothing, it's just that the teacher is on the way here for our marriage." Ziyou's voice said with some weakness.

"Marriage, what!? Marriage!!! The four of Concubine Yan said in unison in surprise, although Shao Siming did not make a sound, his eyes were full of surprise, and the scissors in his hand cut off a leaf that was growing well.

Thinking of saying it, Ziyou simply said it directly.

"Well, the teacher came to Xianyang this time just for our marriage." Ziyou said.

"It's too sudden." The Snow Maiden was speechless in surprise.

"I'm also sudden." Ziyou said helplessly: "But the teacher is already on the way." ”

"And what do we need to prepare?" The salamander's voice trembled slightly.

"You don't have to prepare anything, when the teachers come and discuss it with the parents, Chang Feng and Shaozuo will send someone to arrange it." Ziyou said.

"This" Even the always bold Flame Spirit Ji is a little ownerless at the moment.

Ziyou looked at a few people, thinking about how to visit the elders of the family, Concubine Yan and Shao Si said that they went directly to the mountain ghost, and asked the mountain ghost to inform the old emperor to come to Xianyang, and then he could visit again. And the Snow Girl has already recognized her ancestors in the Zhao clan, and the patriarch of the Zhao clan is now also in Xianyang, so she can visit by herself.

"That's the thing, it's my first time, and I don't know what to do." Ziyou said.

The others were also dizzy, Ziyou's sudden news frightened them, their hearts couldn't help but speed up, and a wave of anticipation rose in the hearts of the five people. Ziyou seemed to suddenly think of something, and then ran quickly outside

"I'm not coming back today, I have some urgent matters to deal with."

"Wait" The salamander's words were not finished, and Ziyou had disappeared without a trace.

The five of them could only look at each other, in order to calm their mood, they could only continue to do their own things again, but Shao Si ordered to cut off a flower, and Concubine Yan, who was originally victorious but in her hand, was reversed by the Snow Girl, and the Snow Girl also made frequent faint moves after reversing the tide of the battle, Flame Lingji continued to comb the rolling hair, but Rolling suddenly felt a pain, and found that a handful of his hair was taken down by Flame Lingji, and the hand holding the book was constantly trembling.

After Ziyou left the Wangshi Mansion, he ran into the Academy of Sciences, and did not talk to anyone along the way, but directly found Gongyi Hai.

After learning about Ziyou's marriage, Mo Crow inadvertently said it while drinking with others, and then the news of Ziyou's marriage spread very quickly, and the entire court of Qin began to pay attention to Ziyou's marriage, wanting to show it.

The news that Ziyou is about to get married is also spreading at a very fast speed, and the powerful families of hundreds of families and places, Ziyou's disciples in Wei State, etc., are actively preparing for this matter.

Chu State, Shouchun.

Chang Wenjun and Li Yuan stood outside Xiong Huai's main hall, both of them waiting for the results of the diagnosis of Xiong Huai, the king of Chu, by the imperial physician of the Qin State. Chang Wenjun glanced at Li Yuan, Li Yuan's face was as usual at the moment, and the whole person was calm, Chang Wenjun continued to remain silent when he saw this.

Since coming to the Chu State, Li Yuan has entertained Chang Wenjun and his party with extremely high standards, and even the treatment of ordinary entourage soldiers has caught up with ordinary ministers. At the same time, Li Yuan didn't even shy away from showing favor to him at all, and sent all kinds of treasures and money to his temporary residence, as if he was afraid that others would not know that he was bribing, and a series of operations made Chang Wenjun vigilant in his heart.

During this period, Chang Wenjun also constantly proposed to Li Yuan to let the imperial doctor he brought to see Xionghuai, the king of Chu, but this was rejected by Li Yuan, and today it was after his repeated requests that he even moved out of Fusu and Yingzheng that Li Yuan agreed to let him come to see the doctor, but Li Yuan only let the imperial doctor in, and did not let him go in to meet the king of Chu.

Soon the imperial physician and the chamberlain hurriedly returned, but at this time, the imperial doctor's face was extremely ugly, and there was even some sweat on the forehead of the whole person.

"How is King Chu's condition?" Chang Wenjun stepped forward and asked.

The imperial doctor glanced at Li Yuan, as if thinking of something, wiped the sweat on his forehead and said

"I don't know about King Chu's condition, I need to go back and check the medical book to determine the true condition."

"In that case, Chang Wenjun will take the imperial doctor back." Li Yuan smiled faintly.

"There's Lord Lauring." Chang Wenjun said with a smile.

After Chang Wenjun and the imperial physician left, Li Yuan's face changed and he said to the attendant beside him

"How's the king?"

As if thinking of something terrible, the chamberlain lowered his head and whispered

"The king's body is still as usual!"

"That'll be fine." Li Yuan smiled and did not speak.

Chang Wenjun, who returned to the embassy of the Qin State, directly took the imperial doctor to the inner room, and asked after retiring everyone

"What is the condition of the King of Chu?"

The Imperial Doctor's face turned frightened, and he replied

"King Chu, King Chu has starved to death, when I entered the main hall, the body of the King of Chu had already begun to stink, and several incense burners were burning in the entire hall, and the fragrance inside covered up the rancid stench emitted by the corpse of the King of Chu. According to my observations, the body of the king of Chu was shriveled and withered, like a man who had been starved to death. ”

Hearing the words of the imperial doctor, Chang Wenjun's face also became shocked, he thought about any fate of Xiong Huai, the king of Chu, who was secretly poisoned by software, but he didn't expect Li Yuan to dare to starve Xiong Huai, the king of Chu, to death directly.

"Stand down. Don't tell anyone about this, do you understand? Chang Wenjun said coldly.

"No." The imperial physician arched his hand and said, the imperial physician is still clear about this matter, otherwise the Qin State would not let him come to Shouchun to see a doctor for the king of Chu.

After the imperial doctor left, Chang Wenjun leaned back in his seat, and the whole person fell into deep thought.

"What the hell is this Li Yuan doing?" Chang Wenjun said in a deep voice.

Li Yuan's current behavior makes Chang Wenjun feel inexplicable and unbelievable, not to mention that Li Yuan put Xiong Huai, the king of Chu, under house arrest and starved Xiong Huai to death, this kind of thing is only the change of the sand dunes of Zhao State, but it was his son who starved to death King Zhao Wuling, in the final analysis, it was the king who killed the first king, Li Yuan dared to starve to death the king of Chu with a courtier, and no one dared to speak out This matter made Chang Wenjun feel incredible.

The second is that Li Yuan starved to death the king of Chu and actively showed favor to him, which shows that Li Yuan has moved closer to the Qin State in his heart, and he should have let them know about it earlier, after all, he came to the Chu State to find out the true situation of the Chu King Xionghuai, so as to prepare for the future theft of the Qin State.

Li Yuan didn't let him visit the King of Chu before, but now he let him go to see it, and told him the truth, what is the purpose of sparing a circle? This made Chang Wenjun puzzled.

"No matter what Li Yuan is, just wait and see, as long as Fusu doesn't come to Shouchun, everything will be fine." After Chang Wenjun couldn't understand all this, he began to write a letter, preparing to convey the situation of Shouchun, so that Xianyang and Xiling's Fusu were prepared.

Ling Yin Mansion.

After Li Yuan returned to the house, he immediately gathered his staff.

"Mr. Song, today Chang Wenjun and the imperial doctor he brought met the King of Chu, and they also know the true situation of the King of Chu, what do you say we should do next?" Li Yuan looked at his staff and asked.

"The matter of the King of Chu under house arrest can't be concealed no matter what, so why not let the Qin State know, what is Chang Wenjun's reaction?" Mr. Song asked.

"I only let the Imperial Doctor in, and I didn't let Chang Wenjun in." Li Yuan shook his head and said.

"In this way, we still have some opportunities, and the credit for this splashing will be Lord Yin alone." Mr. Song said to Li Yuan.

"Ben Ling Yin just wants the whole family to be safe and sound." Li Yuan shook his head and said.

The reason why Li Yuan laid countless mazes and serial sets in Shouchun, which made people unable to see what he was going to do, was for two things, the first was to seek to dedicate the great credit of the Chu State, Li Yuan also knew what his reputation in the Chu State was, especially when he heard about the results of the Qin State's treatment of some other countries' old nobles and the magnates in his own country, which made him even more afraid, so he wanted to seek a huge credit, so that the Qin State did not dare to do anything to him after occupying the Chu State.

The second is that the Chu clan of Chu and some old magnates will never let him establish Fu Su as the king of Chu, no matter how he manipulated the king of Chu before, but the king of Chu is a member of the Chu royal family after all, plus the interests of these people have not been damaged, so they don't care who is the king of Chu. If you want to establish Fusu as the king of Chu, first of all, the Chu clan will not agree, and secondly, some tough old magnates will not agree.

Although Li Yuan controlled the King of Chu, controlled the State of Chu, and covered the sky with one hand, this does not mean that these people do not have the ability to resist him. Two-thirds of the existing strength of the Chu State is in his hands, and one-third is in the hands of the Chu State clan and the old magnates, which is the promise that Li Yuan made in exchange for their support, but he didn't expect it to become his own constraint now. More than half of Li Yuan's men were handed over to Yang Duanhe, and in Shouchun, he only had the 5,000 soldiers and horses left in the Praetorian Guard, and the clan and the old magnates still had these 50,000 soldiers and horses stationed in Caicheng and Quyang near Shouchun.

Once these people knew Li Yuan's true purpose, these people would definitely gather troops and horses to besiege him. If these people make trouble, his plan to sacrifice the country in exchange for peace and wealth will all come to naught, so he has laid all kinds of mazes, wanting to confuse the clan and the old magnates, so as to fight for opportunities.

"The clan and the old magnates are clamoring to see the King of Chu again and let the King of Chu preside over the government. They may have discovered something, and our people have sent back news that Mi Kai and the patriarch of the Bai clan among the old magnates have met today, and the two have a good conversation. Mr. Song said.

"What do these two old guys want to do? Can't they wait? Li Yuan said coldly, now there are a lot of Li Yanfei in Shouchun who said that Xiong Huai, the king of Chu, had actually died of a violent illness, but all of them were suppressed by him. This rumor has spread and there are people behind it, as for what the purpose is, Li Yuan couldn't be clearer, it is just that someone wants to follow the path he walked at the beginning.

"There is no news that Cai Cheng and Quyang's soldiers and horses have not moved, which means that they are also trying, but we have to guard against it. Although these old magnates and clans have no soldiers and horses in Shouchun, there are thousands of domestic servants and slaves, and if they really want to do something, they can do it. Mr. Song said.

"So what do we do? Now that it has reached a critical juncture, Chen Wei from Quyang has already agreed to take refuge with me, as long as Cai Cheng's guards are dealt with again, we will be able to do it. Li Yuan said.

"Chang Wenjun, we may be able to cooperate with Chang Wenjun." Mr. Song said.

"Aren't we going to give away a part of the credit, then?" Li Yuan frowned and said.

"Chang Wenjun's situation within the Qin State is not good, Xiong Qi's betrayal of the Qin State has made the status of the Chu faction of the Qin State plummet, if it weren't for Fusu's mother being a Chu person or Changping Jun's sister, I am afraid that the Chu faction would have been liquidated at this moment.
