Wujiang Chu camp, the Chinese army's main tent.
Julu Hou Yinglu held a letter in his hand, and his already gloomy expression became even more gloomy.
Yinghu turned around twice in the big tent in annoyance: "We are doing things so secretly that there is no leakage, there is no way he knows!"
Yingbao also said: "Brother is right, I am the one who handled this matter. Only one or two people from Lu Qinghou's side have passed on the news, and they may not even know the inside story. So how can Jiang Fan get the evidence? "
Yinglu was silent for a long time and then spoke slowly: "Then how did he find out about our contacts with Lu Qinghou? Please explain to my father."
Both of them were speechless. Yinghu frowned: "I think he is just guessing..."
"Guess?" Yinglu sneered: "This matter is so difficult to guess. Even if it is a guess, this person is already amazing enough. If he can guess it, doesn't he have the ability to get something?"
Ying Bao said: "Shuai Fu means that he does have evidence?"
Yinglu shook his head: "I don't know, but what he said is as sure as if he had seen it himself. How can you let my father not doubt it? This matter... we can't take risks."
Yinghu said: "Does the handsome father plan to..."
Yinglu said: "He is informing his father about something and withdrawing the families of the fallen soldiers who made trouble. Otherwise, he will make public what his father has done. We are not Chu people in the first place. Once this matter is exposed If it is revealed, regardless of whether there is evidence or not, Xiang Chen can use the public's words to attack his father."
"But why didn't he just ask for Ba Qing?" Yinghu couldn't figure it out.
Yinglu snorted: "This is a matter of propriety, one move after another, never pushing an inch further, never completing a thing to perfection, just like my father just wanted to capture this person and send him back to Qin, but did not kill him. So he He is also telling his father that he understands, and also giving his father the opportunity to continue to use his methods. This man is so clever."
Yinghu and Yingbao looked at each other and saw the disbelief in each other's eyes: "Father, is this person really so scary?"
Yinglu sighed: "Although the world is big, this son can compare with anyone. Remember the words of a father, and don't be misled by his seventeen or eighteen years old. This man even regards his father as a strong enemy, and even wants to kill him unless he has no choice. Give in to it by three points, you? You must also know how to be in awe!"
Yinghu gritted his teeth and said: "Remember father's teachings, but it's annoying that so many masters didn't leave that person behind."
Yinglu's eyes were downcast: "As a father, I still underestimated him. A lion must fight a rabbit with all his strength. I should fight with all my strength..."
Yinghu said: "What is even more hateful is the king. He actually killed someone himself."
Yinglu snorted: "Xiang Chen... don't underestimate this king anymore. With that guidance by his side, he is no longer what he used to be. Don't think that he only knows how to fight and kill."
Yinghu was annoyed: "I can't believe that he actually borrowed external help. I have never heard that the king and Jiang Fan are sworn brothers!"
Yinglu said: "It's a long story, but you just need to know that Xiang Chen just couldn't come forward on his own, so he borrowed external help. They are not so friendly to each other."
Yinghu was stunned for a moment, "I see..."
Yingbao said worriedly: "Whether they are in true harmony or fake peace, but now that the king and Jiang Fan have joined forces, there may be changes in Ba Qing's matter."
Yinglu's eyes narrowed slightly: "This matter is of great importance and we must not lose. We have already paid too much for this..."
Yinghu said sadly: "The fake mother died for this. Although she is a fake mother, she has been feeding my brother since he was a child, which is considered a deep affection."
Yinglu snorted coldly: "Stupid, those who become great people must be ruthless and ruthless. Being emotional is just a waste! If necessary, even your biological mother will do the same. My Ying family is a surrender, surrounded by crises, and it took decades of management to become what we are today. Today, for the sake of the family, what cannot be sacrificed?"
The Yinghu brothers were awe-inspiring, but they didn't dare to refute.
They knew very well that the handsome father in front of them was ruthless and cold. If necessary, he would not show any mercy even if he wanted to kill their brothers.
And they are not the only two brothers in the Ying family...
After a while, Yinglu suddenly fluttered his sleeves and said: "Tell those people to calm down this matter before I return to Yingdu for my father!"
The two of them raised their hands at the same time: "No!"
Yinglu asked again: "How prepared are those people in southern Xinjiang?"
Yingbao stepped forward and said: "The arrangements have been made, but I don't know why they haven't taken action yet."
Yinglu sneered: "That half-faced man has strange thoughts, but he and Jiang Fan are sworn in and will never give up this opportunity."
Ying Bao looked fierce: "Father, after this is done, do you want to..."
He made a beheading gesture.
Yinglu shook his head: "They are still useful, just keep an eye on them. As a father, you have your own concerns."
After saying that, he looked up and looked outside the tent. Dark clouds seemed to be coming, and there seemed to be wind, snow and rain coming.
"Jiang Fan..." He whispered: "You can't take mine away..."
——
For Yinglu, the Chu people are quite confused about their love and hatred.
He said well that he had served in the army for thirty years, fought for Chu in the south and north, quelled civil strife, opened up territories, won every battle, and made countless illustrious military exploits. He had made great contributions to Chu.
He was said to be incompetent. This man was sinister and ruthless, had a suspicious and changeable personality, and was unscrupulous in his actions, which made the people of Chu extremely despised. Especially since he was from the Xia Kingdom, his identity was never recognized.
In recent days, people in Chu have been disgusted by the news that he is getting married.
Whose new mourning family has to renew the mourning within a few months? Don’t you even have any moral integrity?
Especially when I heard that he was going to marry the richest man in the world, Ba Qing. Although he didn't know the inside story, Ba Qing was a widow after all, which was hard to accept for the Chu people who valued integrity. Moreover, Yinglu was obviously interested in other people's wealth, and his greedy eating behavior was even more disgusting to the Chu people.
However, he brought the opportunity of Wujiang victory, which makes it difficult to criticize and is quite depressing.
Therefore, the general attitude of Chu people towards his wedding was to shake their heads and be speechless.
Just when Yinglu was preparing to get married when he returned to Ying, two shocking news came out from unknown channels, causing an uproar in public opinion.
First, Ba Qing was actually kidnapped by Yinglu with the intention of forcing a marriage, which is a robbery of a civilian girl.
Secondly, Ba Qing was a retainer of King Xiaoyao of the Qin State, as evidenced by a surrender certificate, but the matter was not approved by King Xiaoyao. Therefore, the fundamental purpose of King Xiaoyao's visit was not to visit King Xiang, but to raise an army to investigate.
I don’t know if this statement was fueled by someone or something else, but it spread throughout the streets and alleys in less than two or three days, and everyone in Yingdu knew it.
At this moment, the huge city of Ying exploded.
Some people were immediately angry, Ba Qing was rich and a native of Chu, how could he serve the Qin people?
But then someone refuted, Yinglu is also from Xia, isn't he now a commander in Dachu?
Someone else said. Before King Xiaoyao entered the Qin Dynasty, he had sworn sworn sworn relationship with King Xiang. Could it be that he would contradict the king because of this?
Immediately afterwards, some people claimed that there was nothing wrong with Ba Qing's surrender to Jiang Fan before he took over the Qin Kingdom.
As soon as these statements came out, the trend quickly turned around. Many people privately rebuked Yinglu. As a military marshal, he did such a villainous thing and lost the face of the Chu people.
But some people are worried that if Ba Qing, a wealthy man, joins the Qin people, it will definitely be harmful to Chu.
