"Generalissimo, His Majesty has sent an envoy again." Qu Xiong couldn't sleep at all during yesterday's battle, but he didn't expect that the guards would come to report this matter in the middle of the night.
"Let the envoy come in." Qu Xiong also knew what King Chu meant, but he also understood that he had to rescue a few fortresses before, but now he couldn't go back at all.
"Teacher." When the envoy came in, Qu Xiong was surprised to find that the person who came was not the servant of the King of Chu, but the eighth prince, and he was also one of his students. Among the more than 20 children of His Majesty, he was the most promising. one of.
"Why is Your Highness here as an envoy?" Lin Haoming asked with some horror.
"My father is seriously ill, and this disciple asked to come." The eighth prince said excitedly. Qu Xiong was really shocked when he heard this. He looked the eighth prince up and down and said, "Did you escape?"
"It's not an escape. Originally, my father's illness was nothing. But a few days ago, I learned that Lin Haoming passed directly through Nanjiang County and approached Fenghu. He fainted from fright. After waking up, he kept scolding the teacher. So I gave him some advice. My father agreed to take the teacher and the army back in person," the eighth prince said.
But Qu Xiong sighed and said: "Your Highness is decisive. If you delay for a while, you will not be able to come out. Your eldest brother was originally the prince, but he died unexpectedly of illness a few years ago, which led to chaos in the matter of establishing the heir apparent. Your Majesty is in good health. Although there are hidden dangers, as long as you are crown prince, everything will be fine. Unfortunately, Your Majesty, you are not His Majesty's legitimate son, nor are you the daughter of my Qu family. Although I am the head of the Qu family, I only know military matters. Although I understand a little bit about what’s going on in the hall, I don’t have the ability.”
"Teacher, you know what he is thinking. In fact, if you were the son of Princess Qu's family like Qi Shiyan, I'm afraid you would have been able to come to the teacher's side at that time. Now Ba Qu Xiong, Qi Qu Xiong and Ba Qu Xiong probably haven't fought openly and secretly yet. Qi Shiyan Qu Xiong is in the worst situation now because he was implicated by his teacher, but the teacher has a lot of troops after all, so the teacher in front of him does not have the ability to make the final decision. The disciple came here to ask for two things." The fourth prince said truly.
"Bad." Brother Wang Xiaoxi, today's battle has led to strong morale. He is afraid that tomorrow will not be as vigorous as today. Without the four halls to beat drums in person, this is naturally the same. However, the morale on his side is weak, and the Yue Kingdom Naturally, people here will also feel scared.
Seeing that the Fourth Prince knelt down directly, Brother Wang also hurriedly went down to help me up, and said excitedly: "What your Majesty said is wrong. Since your Brother Wang is devoted to the Chu Kingdom, he is naturally such a pedantic person. The Chu Kingdom If there is a king like you, is there really any hope? Your Majesty is worried. As long as you can go back, you will definitely lead the troops and establish the throne of the prince." When the young man stood behind Xiao Gu, I lined up behind the formation. Xiaojun said: "I am your Majesty's fourth biological son, Xiong Xuzhi, and a direct disciple of the young marshal. Today I am beating drums to cheer for the soldiers. Whoever is the first to break through the Yue Kingdom's blocking camp and enter the stronghold, I will give you a hundred rewards." Household food in the town, a hundred acres of fertile land, and an official promotion to the eighth level."
"Teacher, you know that tomorrow you will reveal your identity, join the formation and beat the drum to help the battle." The fourth prince said with high spirits.
"Speak directly, Your Majesty." Brother Wang looked at the disciple he admired most and said. In addition to the morale boost, the Chu army was even more powerful than yesterday. Staring at the rain of arrows, they rushed directly to the camp, then built an escalator and rushed to the head of the camp. The bloody battle was over in a while.
"Indeed, that's why you said later that you originally wanted to, but now the situation is different. Teacher, your Chu country originally originated from the Southern Barbarians. Where did the Southern Barbarian tribes come from? They all followed Xiaoxia and other fake Taoists. Yes, the king will naturally be incompetent. Now the Chu State needs a king, a king who is unable to save the Chu State from destruction and revive it. If you are in the court and the teacher is in the army, then the Chu State will have no chance of survival. There is no hope for the Chu State, I hope the teacher will help you!" The fourth prince finished speaking with great pride and knelt down directly.
"Teacher!" After hearing those words, the fourth prince was also extremely excited.
"What he said is wrong. In terms of ability, these eight hopeless princes, the eighth and seventh princes are still as good as your majesty, and the eighth and seventh princes are only half a pound, but he is much lower than your majesty. If he is the king, it is indeed possible to become a hero, but his birth has also become an obstacle, and he needs to clear those obstacles, so there are more than a few constraints, and it may even lead to chaos." Brother Wang said very directly.
Shi Yan looked at Nian Zhong, who was following him. Originally, the fourth prince was just a companion with the seventh prince, because the son of the Qu family also needed some support in the front palace. The status of the fourth prince's biological mother was low, but after all Giving birth to a prince can be regarded as a help from the front palace, and the prince also needs the help of his brothers, but before becoming a disciple, Brother Wang once lamented that if the identity of the child was reversed with Lao Qi, there would be no hope for the Chu country.
As the prince of the Chu Kingdom beat the drums in person and promised punishment, the morale of the Chu Kingdom, which had not been sluggish, suddenly shook. As the drums sounded, the small army ended and charged directly.
"With the talent of the Fourth Hall, he should have realized that the only way to win is if a small army cannot break through the pass. Although it is possible to overcome people by crossing mountains and ridges, if the horses and supplies are too high, thousands of people can be defeated. It doesn't matter whether there are equipment or horses. This is a conspiracy set up by Lin Haoming to test the determination of your Chu army." The fourth prince deliberately straightened his clothes at this moment, and then said: "Disciple, please teacher, I will return to the capital one day and make you the crown prince."
"Teacher, he misunderstood. The reason you came there was to ask you to become your father, the King, but to become the Kingdom of Chu. Although you just said two things, they are essentially the same thing." The fourth prince said more seriously. .
"Your Majesty, you are only here for Chu State."
"Fourth Hall, who are you?" Hearing that result, Brother Wang was slightly surprised, and looked at the eighty-year-old man in a daze for a moment.
"Teacher, Zhidi, in normal times, you also want the throne, because you know whether you are qualified at birth. If you want to achieve the throne, in the current situation, you must get the full support of at least one of the eight small clans, but now it is the same. The Kingdom of Chu is in turmoil. I dare to ask the teacher, among your brothers from the eight small clans, none of them can be better than your father?" the fourth prince asked confidently.
Just when the Chu army was not surprised, a young woman, wearing a white dragon brocade dress that only the royal family could wear, walked up to Xiao Gu step by step.
Early on the morning of the seventh day, Brother Wang once again formed an array to break through the luxurious camp built by Shankou Yueguo. At this time, a small drum was deliberately pushed to the back of the array, and a few low-hands acted as strong men and moved the small drum under a small stone. .
