"Brother, I misunderstood. In fact, my daughter-in-law is very strict and I can't afford to offend a little brother. The lion roars in the east of the river. There are poppies in my brother's family too. I understand." Jiang Fan smiled narrowly.
Xiang Chen looked at him for a long time: "Brother, if I don't keep you, a Qin thief, how can I explain to the Chu people..."
Jiang Fan said disdainfully: "What are you telling the people of Chu? This is purely a matter of personal anger. Brother-in-law - we don't want to be cheap and be good. You have already gained too much this time. You solved Yinglu's matter and you also got Yuanyuan out of thin air." With the continuous huge wealth, we can even further control the Hundred Thousand Mountains by helping Ba Qing, so don’t be dissatisfied.”
Xiang Chen slowly clenched the hilt of the sword: "But as a brother, I just feel unhappy with you and always want to beat you to death. What should I do?"
Jiang Fan shook his head: "No, it won't work this time, you know."
"I don't understand. If you die, the people of Chu will cheer, Yinglu will be satisfied, I will be able to vent my evil anger, and there will be fewer monsters in the world. Why not?"
Jiang Fan laughed: "That's true, but it just can't be done. I'm visiting Chu publicly as an envoy. My brother is very clear-minded. He didn't stop me at the banquet, just to give me a chance to leave quickly. If nothing happens, just hurry up. Let's go back.
Don't worry, I'll go to the posthouse first to clear your relationship, and then I'll run away without you knowing, and I'll just pretend to pursue you for a show. "
Xiang Chen let out a long breath and released the hilt of his sword: "You understand, I really want to kill you."
Jiang Fan nodded: "Understood. There will be a chance in the future."
Xiang Chen's eyes were a little complicated: "Taihua is right, you are indeed the great monster in the world."
"Why, my brother also wants to join the Demon-Slaying Alliance?" Jiang Fan joked.
Xiang Chen snorted: "How can a group of ordinary people in the world be involved in conspiracy. But..."
He looked at Jiang Fan seriously: "My dear brother, if you consider coming to my country, Dachu, as a brother, you will not only be able to let go of the past, but you will also be granted the title of king and prime minister, and you will be honored as a national master. My dear brother, please consider it?"
Jiang Fan smiled: "People who have a family don't have that much freedom. They can go wherever they want."
Xiang Chen sighed: "It's a pity... If one day there is a dispute in the virtuous brother's family, we can consider marrying him as a brother."
Jiang Fan couldn't help laughing: "After all, you are also a sworn brother. Why do you expect discord in my sworn brother's family?"
Xiang Chen hummed: "If you leave today, it's best not to meet on the battlefield in the future. You said that I don't have much courage as a brother."
Jiang Fan smiled slightly: "Brother, that's a joke. Xiang Chen, the Great Chu, is a hero in the world. His strength is unparalleled. I have deep respect for you. In the future... I hope you will take care of yourself."
Xiang Chen's eyes were also a little complicated: "Speaking of these, I will kill you without delay."
Jiang Fan said calmly: "I understand. The mountains and rivers are changing, and who knows what will happen in the future..."
Xiang Chen also remained silent for a long time before he said, "Ba Qing, have we really terminated our relationship with you?"
Jiang Fan was stunned for a moment and felt a little annoyed: "Unexpectedly, I lost the most this time. They were all mine. This witch actually fought with each other and took me out with the help of Yinglu and you. The three wisest men in the world …There really are two brushes.”
Xiang Chen laughed loudly: "Seeing you deflated, I am very happy as a brother. But..."
Xiang Chen said: "Your sister-in-law asked me to tell you... Ba Qing is also a good woman..."
Jiang Fan's expression changed and he smiled slightly, "Mrs. Sister-in-law is extremely intelligent, but this time, she was wrong. Ba Qing is really a strange woman in the world, the god of merchants. If I want to win her alone, I'm afraid no one can do it."
"Oh?" Xiang Chen waved his hand: "I don't understand what your sister-in-law said, but she said that we need to cooperate well and win-win is better than fighting and killing."
Jiang Fan raised his thumb and said, "Sister-in-law, Mrs. Gao Zhi."
Xiang Chen said: "So, this time I will listen to her and let you go."
Jiang Fan cupped his hand and said, "My sister-in-law is so kind to me. My sworn brother has to thank Jiang Fan for it."
Xiang Chen sneered: "Your sister-in-law treats you well. That is her business. Don't think that I will listen to her in everything."
Jiang Fan blinked: "That's what I thought, hahaha..."
"you--!"
While talking, the post house has arrived. Before Xiang Chen got out of the car, he suddenly asked: "Is that old guy still alive?"
Jiang Fan smiled and said: "You are living a good life. Depending on your body shape, it will be easy to live for another few decades."
Xiang Chen sneered: "Tell him to take care of himself and live well. I will personally pick off his dog head and drink it!"
Jiang Fan cupped his hands and said, "I will definitely bring him."
"Run, run faster, it will be ugly if you catch up."
After Xiang Chen said this, he threw down the curtain, mounted his horse and rode away with his whip.
——
In fact, Xiang Chen thought too much. How could he catch up when he was chasing in the wrong direction?
When Xiang Chen woke up the next day, he was told that King Xiaoyao had left overnight, so he immediately gathered people and chased him northwest.
However, that night, Jiang Fan's guard of honor set off to the northwest.
Jiang Fan did not go back. Instead, he separated with a few people and the honor guard and quietly headed south.
An inconspicuous gray carriage drove slowly. The interior is exquisite, luxurious and brightly lit.
Jiang Fan was drunk and humming a ditty: "The fish that swims all day long, keeps swimming... The heart that loves you all day long, never stops..."
The curtain of the carriage opened, and a woman in green chuckled softly: "My lord, who do you love?"
Jiang Fan glanced sideways and said, "Falling in love with someone you shouldn't love. Come on, sit down."
The woman leaned over and sat down, taking off her hood, revealing a calm and smiling face - Ba Qing.
Jiang Fan stretched and sat up straight.
"Is everything clean behind you?"
Ba Qing nodded slightly: "Not all of Qing's subordinates are just losers."
Jiang Fan smiled and praised: "Not bad, it's a good way to use your strength to fight each other."
Ba Qing smiled slightly: "You can't hide it from the prince if you are fake."
Jiang Fan said: "Hmm, it should be that he built the plank road openly and secretly attacked Chencang. He was clever and clever. He is well-deserved as the three wise men in the world."
Ba Qing shook his head: "It's all in the eyes of the prince. I think the prince must have guessed Qing's plan when he saw the letter of surrender."
Jiang Fan said sincerely: "To be honest, no. At that time, I just vaguely thought that you were going to play a big game. Maybe not only could you escape completely, but you could also bring out some of the Nanchu team. But I didn't expect that you would play a big game." His son was even bigger. Not only did he not give up on Nan Chu, he also lifted the constraints of his subordinates. He even tied Xiang Chen and Ying Lu to the chariot and continued to attack Nan Chu, establishing the foundation of Nan Chu in one fell swoop. It was a hundred times stronger than I imagined. ah."
Ba Qing smiled and said: "It's a small trick, but the prince guessed Qing's plan based on clues, and he also made a stroke of genius to tie King Xiang to cooperate. This was really beyond Qing's expectation. Without the prince's insight and clever calculation, Qing would have It won’t work.”
Jiang Fan is very happy. Ba Qing is really the kind of person he needs. He doesn't need eyes, gestures, or communication. He can already understand how to cooperate with each other from a distance. He is definitely a good partner.
