The first eighty-fifth chapters stay under the knife
Xu Chang's eyes twitched slightly, but Ximen Yi had already said to Chu Huan: "Li Yin, please send someone back to Tongzhou and report to the King of Chu, and then said that King Ren was generous and generous. In order to destroy Qin Daye, he had agreed to form an alliance with us and support us for 30,000 stones of grain and grass. He sent people there to prepare for the response. We wait until the food is ready and go back with the grain team."
Chu Huan stood up, bowed his hand and said, and was about to leave, Xu Chang had already said, "Let's wait!"
Chu Huan bowed and said, "What else does King Ren have to give?"
Xu Chang pondered for a moment and finally asked: "Mr. Ximen, is it because your Northwest Army only thinks about defense?"
"King Ren, you probably heard of it. In private, many people call our Northwest Army a group of beggars." Ximen Yi smiled bitterly: "Although this is unpleasant, the truth is true. Although the capital of Qin State fell, Dingwu still has strength in his hands. Since we cannot defeat the enemy, we can only seek self-protection first."
"Do you know the reason for raising a tiger?" Xu Chang said with a cold face: "You are resting and resting, and Qin is also resting and resting. The longer you delay, the more unfavorable it is for you."
"It was also forced to do nothing." Ximen Yi said: "The King of Chu also wanted to fight, but the military affairs cannot be stolen. If you do not have sufficient preparation and use your troops rashly, wouldn't it be that the soldiers died in vain? The King of Chu would never take the risk of gambling."
Xu Chang hesitated for a moment and finally said, "I am powerless in five hundred thousand stones of grain, but if it is two hundred thousand stones of grain, would the King of Chu launch an offensive against Yunshan?"
"Two hundred thousand stones are still a bit tight." Ximen Yi said seriously: "With my understanding of the King of Chu, if there were no 300 thousand stones of grain as a backing, the King of Chu would never use troops."
"Three hundred thousand stones?" Xu Chang said with a cold face, "It is a big deal to destroy Qin. I can provide you with 250,000 stones of grain, of which 50,000 stones are considered as gifts given to King Chu. The remaining 200,000 stones are lent to you by the king."
Ximen Yi said: "King Ren, isn't this too embarrassing for you?"
"In order to destroy the country, I will not care about personal gains and losses." Xu Chang said in a deep voice: "But I said that in the forefront, every grain of grain in the Jinling Cang is used to destroy Qin. I can provide these 250,000 stones of grain. But after the grain is delivered, the Northwest Army must launch an offensive against Yunshan. My food is not to let the Northwest Army defend your city and pool. Lord Ximen, you may do it?"
Ximen Yi smiled and said, "King Ren, if these foods are really delivered, the first one to fight will be the King of Chu. The King of Chu is not a self-proclaimed person, otherwise he would not have come out of seclusion. With this food, with the courage of the King of Chu, he would definitely lead his troops north and fight to the death with the Qin soldiers."
"I hope so." Xu Chang said coldly: "I am here to watch it, but if the food is delivered, the Northwest Army will show no sign of sending troops. I will not agree at that time." A cold light suddenly appeared in my eyes, with a threatening look.
His meaning was clear. If the Northwest Army took the food but did not send troops, then Jinling County would go north and become enemies with the Northwest Army.
Ximen Yi picked up the wine cup and said, "The overall situation of King Ren is the most important thing, keep the whole world in mind, and is selfless, which makes people admire you. This glass of wine is to honor King Ren!"
Chu Huan also picked up the wine cup. Xu Chang looked in a bad mood, but he also picked up the wine cup. The three of them drank it all in one go.
At this moment, I heard footsteps outside. A general wearing armor appeared outside the door. At this time, the sky was already bright, and the rising sun shone on the man's armor, shining with cold light and shining brightly. The person who came was Fei Qing, the general under Xu Chang.
Seeing this, Xu Chang got up and walked over. Fei Qing approached Xu Chang's ear and whispered a few words. Xu Chang sneered: "Take them up!"
After Fei Qing went down, Xu Chang turned around and smiled and said, "The so-called good gifts are in pairs. In addition to food, I will give the King of Chu another big gift."
Chu Huan and Ximen Yi were both confused, and at the same time stood up and walked towards the gate. Soon, a voice shouted: "Xu Chang, you, a traitor without a father and a king, how dare you rebel against the court, you will not die well!"
Chu Huan immediately frowned. He was very familiar with the sound, it was Xue Huaian.
Outside the courtyard gate, dozens of fully armed soldiers rushed into the spacious courtyard and surrounded the spacious courtyard. Randomly from outside the courtyard gate, a group of Jinling sick people pushed and pushed into the courtyard. With the light of the rising sun, Chu Huan could see clearly that the people were tied up by ropes and looked quite embarrassed. The first person was Xue Huaian, who was dressed in disheveled clothes and did not even wear a crown and hat. He was shouting loudly. Following behind Xue Huaian was Wang Weiyang, a hundred-family household in the god-robed clothes. Wang Weiyang looked cold, closed his lips tightly, but his eyes were extremely cold.
Next to Xue Huaian and others, the Jinling soldiers were holding spears, and the spear tip was pressing against the bodies of these people, and they immediately stabbed them to death when they acted rashly.
Chu Huan immediately understood that although they were all messengers, their treatment was obviously both ice and fire. When Xu Chang sent someone to welcome Ximen Yi with his own carriage, he sent someone to arrest Xue Huaian and his party from Hexi.
Although Xue Huaian had guards and even had three Divine Idol Guards, there were only a few people after all. Weiling was Xu Chang's territory. Not to mention the hundreds of Divine Idol Guards, even if they were thousands of Divine Idol Guards, they would not be able to withstand the Jinling soldiers.
"Xue Huaian, you are so brave." Xu Chang rebuked sternly: "How dare I cause trouble and sow discord on my territory. How can I forgive you?"
When Xue Huaian heard this, he didn't understand Xu Chang's meaning, but he shouted: "Xu Chang, no matter what tricks you are playing, everything is for me. There is no need to make things difficult for these guards. If you want to kill me, even if you kill me, you let them go, they are just my guards. If you don't let them go, I will not forgive you if I become a ghost."
When Chu Huan heard this, he admired her. Although Xue Huaian was a scholar and was quite versatile when he was an official, he was not a person who was afraid of death when he was a big link, but he was quite kind.
"Master Ximen, this is the second gift I gave to the King of Chu." Xu Chang turned around and said softly to Ximen Yi: "They are here to sow discord. If I want to let this King and the King of Chu kill each other, I will naturally not spare them. In order to show my sincerity in forming an alliance with the King of Chu, I cut off Xue Huaian's head and hand it over to the King of Chu, so that everyone in the world knows that I and Dingwu of Hexi are in a life-and-death relationship!" Turning around and shouting, "Cut down the heads of these people for me!"
"Xu Chang, you despicable villain." Xue Huaian cursed sternly: "Come to come for me, don't kill them."
The Jinling soldiers beside him followed Xu Chang's order and wanted to hold Xue Huaian and others down and chop down their heads. At this moment, they heard a loud shout. Wang Weiyang suddenly lowered his head, rushed forward, and used his head to hit a Jinling soldier close to Xue Huaian. Wang Weiyang was very fast and unexpectedly. Although the Jinling soldiers beside him did not react, the Jinling soldiers who were hit were even more caught off guard.
The collision was full of force and the force was heavy. The Jinling soldier screamed "Ouch" and retreated. Unexpectedly, behind him was his companion holding a spear. Before he could withdraw his gun, the spear had already penetrated the Jinling soldier's body.
The soldiers around were startled at first, then they were angry, and someone shouted: "Still them to death!"
Wang Weiyang shouted loudly: "The assassin has nothing to do with us!"
Chu Huan frowned slightly. At this point, he was not afraid that Wang Weiyang would expose his identity. Even if Xu Chang knew his identity, he might not dare to act rashly. However, things would always become more troublesome. Xu Chang was determined to frame Xue Huaian and others. He was worried about something else and said sternly: "I will kill you!"
At this time, the other guards behind Xue Huaian knew that they would die, but they fought to the death. Several of them followed Wang Weiyang's appearance and lowered their heads to rush. However, the Jinling soldiers had spears out. In the midst of the spears, several guards were stabbed one after another, including the two sacred lieutenants, who were stabbed like hedgehogs in the blink of an eye. When the spear was pulled out, they all fell in a pool of blood.
Wang Weiyang's face turned pale, but he was standing in front of Xue Huaian. Jinling soldiers were surrounded by them. More than a dozen spears were aimed at the two of them. Wang Weiyang shouted sternly: "Who dares to touch me?"
His voice was cold and his momentum was amazing, and the Jinling soldiers were a little afraid for a moment.
Xue Huaian closed his eyes, sighed, and said, "Wang Baihu, it is my fault that I invaded you, hey!"
Fei Qing was already shouting from the side: "I won't do it yet!"
The Jinling soldiers did not hesitate and were about to stab the guns. At this moment, they heard a cold voice saying, "Stop!"
Everyone was stunned and looked in the voice. The person who shouted was Chu Huan. Although most of the soldiers did not know Chu Huan, they did not continue to stab him when they saw Chu Huan standing beside Xu Chang.
Xu Chang frowned, but Chu Huan took a step forward and said softly: "King Ren, as the saying goes, two countries have fought for war and not killed the envoy. We have seen the determination of King Ren to Qin, but if even Xue Huaian is killed, it will be harmful to King Ren's reputation?"
Xu Chang didn't care at all and sneered: "I killed the envoy of Qin. People all over the world know that they will only applaud."
Ximen Yi knew that Chu Huan wanted to save Xue Huaian, and immediately said: "King Ren, others can kill him, but Xue Huaian really shouldn't have killed him."
"Oh?" Xu Chang frowned and said, "How do you say this?"
"Does King Ren know that Xue Huaian and King Chu have some friendship." Ximen Yi lowered his voice and said, "The Qin State sent envoys to Xiliang, and the envoy was Xue Huaian, but the deputy envoy was our King of Chu. In fact, the King of Chu has told us many times that I took great care of him when I learned bad things. If I had the chance, I would still repay Xue Huaian. King Chu is a person who values friendship. If King Ren killed him here, the King of Chu might not feel good when he learned about it."
Xu Chang brows tightly, but he also knew that this was true. Chu Huan and Xue Huaian went to Xiliang together, and everyone in the world knew that they were really good at thinking?
"King Ren, in my foolish opinion, it is better to hand over Xue Huaian to us and take him back and hand him over to the King of Chu." Ximen Yi said: "The King of Chu is the one who kills or releases the King of Chu, but King Ren handed this person to the King of Chu, but the King of Chu owes King Ren a favor. You should know that the King of Chu is a person who will repay kindness, so!"—
