The King of Qi struggled to get up and sneered with resentment and anger: "Brother Chu? In your heart, he is an open and honest gentleman, and I am a cruel and incorruptible villain?"

Ling Shuang said helplessly: "Prince, Ling Shuang doesn't want to argue with you." She sighed lightly, turned around and left.

"Let's go!" King Qi said angrily: "Even if you go to find Chu Huan, I have known that there will be today. Since you want to be with him, why bother yourself? You have been with me for so long? It turns out that you are just a false liar!"

Ling Shuang stopped, but did not look back, and said lightly: "Do you know what to be a real man? Even if you encounter obstacles and obstacles, many hardships, you will not retreat. You will only move forward without moving forward, overcome obstacles, and hold on with strength, instead of complaining about others and giving up on yourself. Prince, your road is still long. Ling Shuang just hopes that you can wake up by yourself and not take the wrong path."

"I don't need you to teach you." King Qi sneered: "Since you are going to find him, why bother me?"

Ling Shuang closed her eyes, with tears in the corners of her eyes. She finally walked lightly to the gate of the courtyard, stopped, hesitated for a moment, and her expression became firm. She did not look back and left.

When King Qi saw Ling Shuang's back disappear, he stared blankly at the empty courtyard gate. After a while, he screamed to the sky, his voice shrill, and then he sat on the ground.

"You are all betraying me!" King Qi murmured to himself: "Everyone is betraying me, I am still able to accomplish great things without you!"

He sat on the ground and murmured to himself. Suddenly he heard footsteps outside the door, and a figure appeared at the gate of the courtyard. The King of Qi thought it was Ling Shuang who was going back, so he hurriedly looked up and said, "Ling Shuang, don't!"

But I saw a burly figure walking over, squinted my eyes, but saw that it was Lu Cunxiao.

When Lu Cunxiao saw King Qi sitting on the ground, he was a little surprised. Seeing that he was drunk, he hurried over to support him. King Qi waved his hand and opened it, and said vaguely: "Go away, what are you doing again?"

Lu Cunxiao took two steps back and bowed, "Prince, there is news on the front line, and Duke Chu has sent someone back to report the news."

"What did he say?" The King of Qi was a little dizzy and struggled to stand up. He was just overwhelmed and could not get up for a moment. Lu Cunxiao could only come forward to help him up, and then said: "Prince, a great happy event, Chu Du sent someone to report to Mali. He just arrived and brought news that Xigu Pass had been conquered and the Pass was controlled by our army."

"Ah?" King Qi was stunned.

Lu Cunxiao smiled and said, "In addition, the Chu governor seized a lot of food and food supplies at Xigu Pass and ordered our grain team not to go to the pass for the time being. The grain team's grain will be temporarily stored in Jiazhou."

"No need to go?" King Qi frowned and said, "Then will you stay in Jiazhou tomorrow?"

Lu Cunxiao said respectfully: "That is, since the military order of the Chu governor has been given, we will naturally stay in Jiazhou. The last general has sent people out of the city and transferred the food into the city for temporary storage. Other soldiers and horses have set up camp on the spot, stationed outside the city, waiting for the military order of the Chu governor!"

"Why don't you discuss with me first?" King Qi interrupted coldly, "Have you ever ordered to stay on the spot?"

Lu Cunxiao was stunned, but he didn't react for a moment and said, "Prince, this is a military order sent by the Chu Duke. The last general will naturally act in accordance with the military order."

"Chu Huan sent someone to deliver the letter, should I give it to you or to me?" King Qi asked coldly.

Although Lu Cunxiao was very brave on the battlefield, he was a simple and kind person. He said honestly: "I sent someone to convey military orders to the General of the Mo. The General of the Mo knew that the Prince had been waiting for the news, so he came to report it."

The King of Qi sneered: "It turns out that if I want to get the frontline battle report, it depends on your mood!"

Lu Cunxiao was simpler, but he understood the meaning of this sentence. He knelt down on one knee and said anxiously: "Prince, I will make a mistake!"

King Qi said lightly: "Since Chu Huan said that he had captured Xigu Pass, the food and grass should not be transported over. Do they want to return to the army?"

"This is not said." Lu Cunxiao said: "But taking Xigu Pass naturally took a hard battle. Finally, the general thought that Chu Duke should rest there for a few days and re-arrange the pass."

King Qi said: "I will pass on the orders of this king. When tomorrow dawn, the team will continue to move towards Xigu Pass!"

Lu Cunxiao frowned and said, "Prince, the governor Chu has issued a military order. We must stay in Jiazhou for the time being!"

"You want to disobey my orders?" King Qi changed his color.

Lu Cunxiao hurriedly said, "I dare not. Just the team continues to move forward, which not only ruins the deployment of Duke Chu, but also mobilizes troops and increases the consumption of food and grass!"

The King of Qi sneered: "Since that's the case, there is no need to leave the baggage team. Just take your troops and horses to go there. Since Chu Huan won a great victory, I will always go to the pass to reward them."

"Prince, most of the troops in the state of Jiazhou have been transferred, and the guards are weak. The last three thousand soldiers are to protect the safety of this batch of food and grass." Lu Cunxiao said: "Since the food and grass are to be kept in Jiazhou, these three thousand soldiers and horses cannot be easily mobilized. These foods were finally raised by Shuoquan. If there is any mistake, the last thing will be punished and the most important thing of Chu is to ruin the matter of Chu. Don't redeem them if you die."

The King of Qi frowned and said, "Is there any mistake? Who dares to have the idea of ​​this batch of food and grass?"

"Prince, there are many famines in the northwest now, and there must be many people with ulterior motives." Lu Cunxiao said patiently: "Duke Chu thought of this, so all the important places in the northwest have deployed certain troops to defend. The food we have in our hands is undoubtedly a big gold mine in the northwest. If these three thousand soldiers and horses guard the food and grass, naturally no one dares to act rashly, but once the troops are transferred away and the defense is weak, we will be worried that bandits will take the opportunity to seize the food!"

The King of Qi sneered: "You were also a bandit before, and you were recruited to surrender to the court. You know the thoughts of the bandits."

Lu Cunxiao changed color slightly, but said, "So the general thought that unless the Duke of Chu sent a military order, the three thousand soldiers under the general would never leave the food half a step away from the food."

The King of Qi said angrily: "What you mean is that I cannot command you and those three thousand soldiers?"

"The military order is like a mountain, and the general dares not disobey the order of the governor of Chu." Lu Cunxiao said firmly: "If the prince insists on transferring these three thousand soldiers, he can only kill the general first."

The King of Qi was furious and reached out to his hand to pull out his sword from Lu Cunxiao's waist. Lu Cunxiao knelt on one knee on the ground, his face still not changing, but just holding his fists and his eyes firmly.

"Swish!"

The blade was already pressing against Lu Cunxiao's throat. King Qi stared at Lu Cunxiao's eyes and said sternly: "What's now? Can I mobilize them?"

Lu Cunxiao calmly said: "Prince, without the order of the Chu Governor's military command, the last general would never let the soldiers under his command leave the two teams half a step. Without the order of the Chu Governor's military command, these foods would not leave the Jiazhou one step."

"You!" King Qi only felt that his chest was full of blood and energy. Lu Cunxiao was just a member of Chu Huan's subordinates. In terms of status, he was incomparable to Pei Ji and Xuanyuan Shengcai, and even could not compare with Xu Shao, Han Ying, Fang Rushui and others.

But even such a lieutenant general didn't care about his orders. The King of Qi was extremely angry and laughed in anger: "Lu Cunxiao, do you think I dare not kill you?"

Lu Cunxiaowei raised his head, his eyes as ice as ice, and said lightly: "The prince wants to kill who he wants to kill, but he is not afraid. But Mo Jiang wants to remind the prince that many of the three thousand soldiers and horses guarding the food and grass are unruly people. If the prince kills Mo Jiang, he will ask the prince to immediately order them to be killed, otherwise Mo Jiang is worried that something will happen to them."

"Are you threatening me?" King Qi was even more angry and pushed forward with a blade.

"Yingren, stop!" A scolding came over. The King of Qi looked up, but saw that the Queen had come hurriedly. In a daze, the Queen's plump figure had already walked forward quickly, reached out and grabbed the King of Qi's wrist and pulled his arm aside.

She saw the King of Qi looking drunk, and then saw the empty wine pot thrown on the ground beside her. She knew that King of Qi must be drunk. The face full of mature and beautiful woman was both angry and heartbroken, and she snatched the big knife from King of Qi.

"Mother, you!"

But Lu Cunxiao had already saluted respectfully to the queen: "I will pay homage to the queen, please."

"General Lulu, King Qi has drunk a few more drinks, don't take it to heart." The queen sent the big knife to Lu Cunxiao. Lu Cunxiao took it with both hands and put the knife back into the sheath. However, the queen said warmly: "General Lu, you are in military affairs, go and do the military affairs first."

Lu Cunxiao said respectfully: "I will obey the order!" He stood up, bowed to Yingren, turned around and left.

When the King of Qi saw Lu Cunxiao leave, he turned to the queen and was about to speak, but he heard a crisp "pop" sound. The queen slapped the King of Qi heavily in the face.

The King of Qi was stunned, a little dazed, and felt his face burning. The queen's slap was really not light. Since childhood, the King of Qi had not been beaten like this by the Queen, and he was unable to react for a moment.

"Mother, stepmother, what are you doing?" After a deadly silence, King Qi came to his senses.

The queen looked angry, "Yingren, do you know what you were doing just now? Are you trying to seek death?"

"I!"

"Lu Cunxiao is Chu Huan's general. If you kill him, do you know what consequences will be?" The queen said angrily: "Lu Cunxiao is nothing wrong. If you kill generals indiscriminately, even if the emperor killed people, you have to find a reasonable reason. What are you now? If Chu Huan and the soldiers in the northwest know, do you know the consequences?"

King Qi covered half of his face and sneered: "Does Chu Huan want to kill me?"

"If you kill a general who has no guilt, even if Chu Huan takes care of his affection, you will not do anything to you. Do you think the soldiers of the Northwest Army will give up?" The queen looked sad and angry, shaking her head and said, "If that's the case, even if she wants to be a teacher, she will not have the chance to do that Yingren. What's wrong with you? How could you become like this?" She looked up at the bright moon in the sky and sighed, "With your temperament, not to mention achieving great things, I'm afraid even your life will be ruined sooner or later."
