Xiang Liang's confidants had already climbed to Yuewang Mountain under the cover of night. Xiang Liang was sitting under a tree, looking at the dark mountain top and the dark sky, and couldn't help but mutter: "Why is it so obvious?"

, but it always makes me feel a sense of foreboding?”

The soldier next to him tried to persuade him: "The general must be too worried about Young Master Yu. Concern leads to chaos."

Xiang Liang nodded slightly, sighed and said, "I hope so."

…………

At the same time, thousands of miles away in Xianyang City, Wang Heng was wandering in the courtyard. It was already late at night, and he still couldn't sleep.

Suddenly, a figure walked towards him. Through the lights in the courtyard, Wang Heng recognized that this person was his grandfather, Wang Jian.

The two looked at each other and smiled bitterly.

Wang Jian said: "Heng'er, haven't you fallen asleep yet?"

Wang Heng bowed and said: "Tossing and turning, I can't fall asleep."

Wang Jian nodded slightly: "The same is true for me. Counting the days, the emperor's envoy should have returned from Chu with news of Xiang Liang's rebellion a few days ago. However, until today, there is still no movement."

"Although His Majesty did not accuse the Wang family, as time goes by, patience will eventually run out. I speculate that if there is no news in three to five days, the Wang family will be in danger."

In Wang Heng's heart, he was also uneasy and worried. But at this time, he could only brace himself and said to Wang Jian: "Grandpa, don't worry, if my Wang family is destroyed, and Xiang Liang rebels in the future, the ones sent to actually destroy the rebels will be

General. By then, he will be in great difficulty. I believe he will not be so stupid."

Wang Jian nodded slowly, and then sighed: "Recently, I always feel that there is an ominous omen."

Wang Heng comforted Wang Jian with a few false words and sent him back to his room to sleep. As for Wang Heng himself, he sat in the courtyard all the time.

"Uncle, uncle, I died so miserably." An extremely miserable howl came from the window lattice.

Li Shui sat up suddenly and saw a black shadow floating into the room.

Li Shui was a little panicked and shivered and lit the oil lamp, but a gust of cold wind blew it out. Then, the oil lamp burned again on its own, but the flame changed from bright yellow to a gloomy green.

In the dim light, Li Shui saw a man covered in blood standing in the corner.

The man cried and said: "Uncle, I died so miserably."

Li Shui was sweating profusely, groping around on the couch, and finally found his death-free medal.

He held up the gold medal and said loudly: "This is a gift from Qin Shihuang. It has the power of an emperor and can suppress all demons and demons. Who are you, why don't you retreat quickly?"

The man raised his face and said with a wry smile: "Uncle, it's me. Don't you recognize me?"

Li Shui almost fainted because he only saw the back of his head.

The man suddenly said slowly: "Oh, my nephew's head was cut off by Xiang Liang, but it was connected to the wrong head." Then he stretched out his hand and turned his neck 180 degrees, revealing his tall face.

Pale face.

Li Shui yelled and threw the death-free medal at him.

There was only a loud bang, followed by a sputtering sound. Li Shui shuddered and suddenly woke up from his nightmare.

The room was dark inside, and he didn't look like a young man at all.

Li Shui sniffed and smelled the aroma of wine. He probably smashed the wine jar in excitement when he was dreaming just now.

Li Shui wiped the cold sweat from his head. He didn't dare to delay and ran out of the house quickly.

The craftsman who was keeping watch at night came up and asked, "Sir, what's going on?"

Li Shui said: "Nothing. Where is the busiest place in my Shangjun Villa at this time?"

The night watchman thought for a while and said: "It is said that the Academy of Sciences is refining a new type of iron tool. The fire over there is burning day and night, and many people are awake."

Li Shui nodded: "Excellent, come with me."

The night watchman agreed and went to the Academy of Sciences with Li Shui.

There is indeed a fire burning inside the Academy of Sciences, which is bright and makes people feel at ease. There are many craftsmen coming and going, busy, and it is as lively as daytime.

When Xianglizhu saw Li Shui arriving, he looked puzzled: "Didn't you wake up at three o'clock in the morning? Why are you so abnormal today?"

Li Shui cleared his throat and said, "I am worried about you, so I came here to give you some advice."

Xiangli Zhu rolled his eyes and ignored him.

Li Shui sat in front of the fire, and the horrific scenes in his dream still appeared in his mind from time to time.

Li Shui wrapped his clothes tightly and said to himself: "Why do I always have an ominous premonition? Logically speaking, Mr. Gao and I are not related, so whether he dies or not is none of my business? Did he call me uncle a few times?

, I started to worry about his safety? This is really cheap, how much money did he spend?"

Thinking of this, Li Shui wanted to slap himself in the face: he really lost the face of the immortal.

Suddenly, he remembered something, raised his head and said to the night watchman next to him: "Send my order, if anyone wants to call me uncle in the future, the price will be increased ten times."

The man agreed immediately.

…………

The emperor's envoy in Kuaiji City was standing in the courtyard, looking in the direction of Xianyang City from a distance.

He had no ominous premonition, because he knew very well that something had indeed happened to Chu Di, and there was no need for a premonition at all.

In fact, after he arrived here, he conducted overt and covert investigations and knew that the so-called news about Xiang Liang's rebellion was just a bluff by thieves. However, the envoy also noticed that there was no need to worry about the thieves on the surface, but some people in this area could not see it.

There is an undercurrent surging in this place.

He is sure that Xiang Liang is accumulating strength and is even trying to bribe local officials. It can be said that he has not rebelled yet, but he is about to. Once he rebels, the earth will surely collapse.

The envoy decided to go back to Xianyang... and bring this news back. But from this point on, things became weird.

First, his horse had diarrhea for no reason and became ill. When he was about to change a horse, a plague suddenly broke out in the horses in Kuaiji County.

Immediately afterwards, the governor of Kuaiji County kept him here every day for various reasons to delay his return.

Jufu knew that there must be changes in the Chu land, and these changes must be related to Xiang Liang. Now he was 100% sure that Xiang Liang had rebelled.

The messenger looked north, thinking about how to get out of this hellish place.

He has tried many things in the past few days. Whether he forced his way out or slipped away quietly, he was always stopped.

This post house has been surrounded by people from front to back. Those people have only one excuse: a group of thieves came nearby, burning, killing, looting, and doing all kinds of evil. It is too dangerous for the envoy to leave now. Wait for the county guard to destroy the thieves.

, it’s not too late to leave.

The envoy believed that by the time they wiped out the so-called thieves, Xiang Liang would have taken control of the Chu region and completely launched a rebellion. By then, he, as an envoy, would be of little use and might be killed with a single sword.

Suddenly, the messenger shouted: "Here comes someone."

A servant tiptoed in and said with a dry smile: "What are your orders, sir?"

The messenger said: "I want to see the giant man."

The servant was a little embarrassed: "Your Excellency is not in the city. Your Excellency... Your Excellency has gone to suppress the bandits."

The messenger had already guessed this answer. He hadn't seen the giant husband for a few days, so he must be away.

So the messenger looked regretful and said, "Then I want to see Jufu's steward."

The servant hesitated for a moment and said, "Sir, wait a moment while I go to see if the housekeeper is there."

Half an hour later, the housekeeper came.

The butler smiled and saluted the envoy: "The giant armor pays homage to your lord."

The messenger stared at the giant armor for a while and said calmly: "Where is the giant armor?"

Jujia said: "The governor has gone out of the city to suppress the bandits."

The messenger sneered: "Not necessarily. He went out of the city to rebel."

As soon as Jujia heard this, his expression suddenly changed, and he waved his hand back, dismissing all the nearby servants.

Then, Jujia said: "Sir, you can't say this nonsense. You are a messenger of the emperor. It would not be good to make trouble out of nothing and falsely accuse my county governor."

The envoy said calmly: "Whether it is a frame-up or not, you also know in your heart. I just want to ask you, do you think Xiang Liang can stop the millions of tigers and wolves of Great Qin?"

The giant armor was slightly startled.

The envoy said: "Let me remind you. We, the Qin people, swept through the six kingdoms and wiped out all the powerful powers of the Warring States period in Guandong. Our power is unstoppable."

"Now that the Qin Dynasty occupies the four seas, its power is ten times greater than before. Can a mere Xiang Liang fight against the entire world with the strength of his clan?"

"Your master, Ju Fu, followed Xiang Liang and rebelled against the imperial court. He had delusions of grandeur and plotted rebellion. If he fails, will you, the steward, still be able to survive?"

The giant-armored man's face suddenly turned pale.

The messenger pressed forward step by step: "Jufu, are you really going to suppress the bandits? Or are you going to rebel?"

Jujia said with a cry: "This matter has nothing to do with me."

This sentence basically acquiesces to the whereabouts of the giant husband.

The envoy patted Ju Jia's shoulder affectionately: "I am the emperor's envoy, and I represent the emperor's eyes. Naturally, I must know everything clearly. Since you are not involved in this matter, I naturally know it. Don't worry, I will report it to His Majesty.
