Chapter 168: Chu Di

"Fourth brother, what happened?" Walking to a place where there was no third person, Li Cunli looked at Li Cunren in front of him and asked.

"On that day in Taiyuan, Jian Guo and his eldest brother had already laid an ambush, and his father-in-law fell into their trap and was killed by Li Xingyun." Li Cunren looked at Li Cunli in front of him and said.

"Sure enough." Li Cunli sighed.

"Sixth brother, the fourth brother is here this time to ask if you are willing to be loyal to the prison country?" Li Cunren recalled Yuan Tiangang's figure again in his mind, he shook his head, and threw the terrifying figure out of his mind, and then, he looked at Li Cunli in front of him and opened his mouth to persuade.

"It seems that the fourth brother has made up his mind." Li Cunli looked at Li Cunren in front of him and spoke.

Hearing the word prison country, Li Cunli knew what Li Cunren was thinking in his heart.

"Sixth brother, I don't have a choice."

……

Chu.

Chu Wangfu. Meng Zhixiang walked into the palace of the king of Chu under the support of a group of waiters and Ma Xisheng, the son of the king of Chu.

'Ma Yin people are old and sophisticated, and their minds are treacherous, so they are not easy to deal with. Looking at Ma Xisheng, who introduced himself into the palace of King Chu, the young man's face seemed to be full of innocence, and Meng Zhixiang couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

There is no prince in this world to deal with.

However, at this moment, neither Meng Zhixiang nor Ma Yin knew about Li Keyong's death, but knowing it would only prompt Ma Yin to fall further towards the anti-Li Xingyun Alliance that had now been joined by Shu and Wu, the reason was very simple, the natural opposition in positions decided everything.

Even if people with different positions can temporarily unite for a greater threat, there is no doubt that in the end, they will still turn hostile.

"I've seen the King of Chu." Seeing Ma Yin coming towards him, Meng Zhixiang opened his mouth and saluted Ma Yin, the king of Chu.

"Eh, my old man has neglected the waiter, Master Meng, I won't blame the old man." Ma Yin, the king of Chu, was dressed in a robe of the king of Chu and was on crutches, and slowly greeted Ma Xisheng and Meng Zhixiang.

Ma Yin, the king of Chu, has an old face and a short and concise figure, but his eyes are bright, and he is a calculating master at a glance.

"Lord Meng, please." Ma Yin looked at Meng Zhixiang in front of him and stretched out his hand to make a gesture of invitation.

The banquet of the Chu royal palace was very elaborately arranged, using precious materials such as silk, gold and silver utensils, and jade to decorate. The walls of the ballroom are covered with splendid tapestries, and the roof is adorned with ornate illuminations and paintings.

A variety of delicacies are served on jade plates, including meat and vegetarian dishes, hot and cold. Each dish has been carefully designed to not only match the colors, but also to look beautiful.

Meng Zhixiang saw that there would be a lot of hot dancing girls at the banquet, all of them were dressed in hot style clothes, with slender waists, skin like jade, slender legs, excellent figures, and exquisite faces.

At the same time, Ma Yin, the king of Chu, also displayed various treasures, such as jadeite, agate, famous paintings, etc. No one knew what the little old man was going to do.

"Father, I'll go back first." Ma Xisheng looked at Ma Yin in front of him, bowed to him, and spoke.

Qingxiu's face seemed to be ignorant.

"Go back? My old man is not in good health, and he is too busy here, so you stay and entertain Lord Meng. Ma Yin looked at Ma Xisheng in front of him, the doting look in his eyes flashed, and when he heard the words, Ma Yin said calmly.

Naturally, he can't let Ma Xisheng go back, Meng Zhixiang is Li Keyong's son-in-law, a powerful person in the Jin Kingdom, he intends to cultivate Ma Xisheng in recent years, so he naturally wants him to know more people, accumulate more contacts, and accumulate more experience.

It's just that Ma Xisheng has always shirked this, but Ma Yin knows that his child is not shirking because he is playful, but he is unwilling to compete with his eldest brother.

Thinking of this, Ma Yin's love for Ma Xisheng was a little more.

"Master Meng, old man, I'm old, and my body is not as tough as when I was young, so let my second son sit with you, okay?" Seeing that Ma Xi was silent, Ma Yin looked at Meng Zhixiang in front of him and said with a smile.

"It's naturally good to be like this, but it's just that it's going to delay the second son's time." Meng Zhixiang looked at Ma Yin in front of him and spoke.

Meng Zhixiang knew that although Ma Yin was asking for his opinion, in fact, on Ma Yin's territory, in fact, it was still their Jin State that had asked for Ma Yin's Chu State, and he had no other choice than to follow Ma Yin's train of thought.

"Don't delay, don't delay, accompany Lord Meng, how can it be considered a delay?

It's a blessing for children. Ma Yin looked at Meng Zhixiang in front of him and said with a smile.

"I don't dare to ask for ears." Meng Zhixiang bowed to Ma Yin and spoke.

"Lord Meng, please." Ma Yin made a gesture of invitation to Meng Zhixiang.

"King Chu, please." Meng Zhixiang respectfully responded.

……

In front of Xingzhou City.

The army under Li Cunmiao formed a spectacular formation, and the soldiers lined up in a solemn and orderly manner, their steps neat, their armor shining with metal. Their procession stretched into the distance, seemingly endless, with Jin soldiers dressed in armor and armed with spears, bows, swords, and other weapons. Their weapons shone with a cold light.

Most importantly, it is clear that this army is extremely disciplined, and the soldiers are well-trained and strictly abide by military discipline. They remained in a tight formation at the moment, unshaken, as majestic as a high mountain.

In the military array, the soldiers hung all kinds of military flags with the characters "Li" and "Jin" written on them, and these flags fluttered in the wind and were densely arranged in front of the formation, forming a scene of flags like a forest. At this moment, there are many flags in the military array, and it is a spectacular and shocking scene from a distance.

Li Cunqiao stood in the middle of the army, holding a long sword, and swung it violently.

"The king of Jin has an order, and the army will go to battle!" Seeing this, the Mirror Heart Demon beside Li Cunqiao could be said to have understood it, and he shouted.

Then the sergeants began to beat the war drums and blow the horns.

The army slowly began to march in an orderly manner.

The soldiers in the military formation were arranged in a neat formation according to strict command and discipline. They marched side by side and in unison, forming an imposing wall of people. The footsteps of the soldiers of the Jin Kingdom were steady and powerful, and the iron hooves of the Black Crow Army cavalry stomped on the ground, like an earthquake, shocking people's hearts. The pace of the entire military formation converged and formed an overwhelming momentum.

This is the difference between Li Cunmiao and others, if others have a strong enemy outside, when there is trouble and civil strife inside, I don't know how to panic, but Li Cunmiao will not, the more dangerous the moment, the calmer he is, and even the more he dares to take the initiative.

And the place that his army Bingfeng is pointing to is not another place, it is Wang Yanzhang stationed in Zezhou.

If a city is broken, it will be full of life.
