Liu Bang treated Yingbu well, sharing food and bed with him, even his own son Liu Ying could not compare with him.
"Your Majesty treats people ten thousand times better than Xiang Yu!"
Sui He sighed: "This time Yingbu's whole family was slaughtered by Xiang Yu, and he fled to the Han camp alone. Along the way, he said that he was a lost dog, for fear that the king of Han would underestimate him. Now that the king regards him as the king, this man will definitely sacrifice his life to retaliate. My big man has gained another tiger."
Liu Ying smiled happily and said: "The more tigers, the better. Xiang Yu is a powerful dragon and cannot be controlled without a group of tigers!"
They were chatting here when they suddenly saw Chen Ping rushing in in a panic.
"Mr. Chen, what's the matter?"
Chen Ping hurriedly came to Liu Ying and whispered: "Prince, I brought a group of Chu army prisoners here, and happened to bump into the King of Jiujiang. When he heard that they were Chu soldiers, he was about to draw his sword and kill him. I stopped him with my life, and then I came to seek help from the king, but it happened that the king was not here."
Liu Ying was startled. Yingbu was a fierce tiger that was difficult to control!
"Mr. Chen, you go find my father, and I'll go take a look."
Suihe said hurriedly: "I will accompany the prince."
Liu Ying followed He out and hurried to the scene of the incident.
I saw Yingbu holding a sharp blade, waving it in the air, gnashing his teeth in front of a group of captured Chu soldiers.
"Xiang Yu, a common man, slaughtered my whole family and killed my subordinates! Even the newborn babies were not spared! I swear to God, I will slaughter all the Chu dogs! It starts with you!"
As he spoke, Yingbu rubbed the forehead of a prisoner twice with the back of his knife, and was about to chop off his head with the knife.
"etc!"
Liu Ying hurriedly stopped him, then quickly came over and said, "King of Jiujiang, this is the prince of Han Dynasty, Young Master Ying."
Yingbu glanced at the little Liu Ying and grinned, "So it's the young master. It doesn't matter. I'll kill him somewhere else!"
He smiled sarcastically and turned to leave. Liu Ying rushed in front of him and stopped Yingbu.
"King Jiujiang, these people are going to be released, so please show mercy."
Yingbu was furious in an instant, his strange eyes widened, and he said angrily: "What? Are you going to let these Chu soldiers go? What's the reason?"
Liu Ying said: "Heaven is kind and cannot bear to kill, so he lets them go."
"What did you say?" Yingbu seemed to have heard the funniest joke, "When Xiang Yu killed my whole family, when had he ever been kind? I couldn't kill what he killed?"
After saying that, Yingbu glared at Suihe again, "I am a distinguished guest of the King of Han, so what does it matter if I kill a few prisoners? Take the prince and leave quickly!"
Suihe's face darkened, "King of Jiujiang, the prince's words are correct. If you kill prisoners in the Han camp, does that mean you don't take the King of Han seriously?"
"Nonsense!" Yingbu said angrily: "The King of Han treats me well. I regard the King of Han as my master. I am willing to kill Chu soldiers for the King of Han. Who dares to stop me?"
Yingbu was filled with murderous intent and furious.
The guards rushed up to protect Liu Ying, for fear that the prince would be injured.
Liu Ying waved her hand and asked them to retreat.
Then Liu Ying raised her head and said: "King of Jiujiang, I just want to ask you one thing. Can you compete with Xiang Yu?"
"you!"
Yingbu was speechless for a moment. If he had done it, he wouldn't have fallen to where he is today.
"What do you mean, Prince? Is it because he is afraid of Xiang Yu and doesn't even dare to kill prisoners?" Yingbu asked loudly.
Liu Ying said calmly: "Wrong! Since Xiang Yu started his army, he has killed innocent people in every battle to subjugate others with force. However, everyone in the world is rebelling and does not want to be Xiang Yu's ministers. I want to take over the world, so I can only pity the common people and use Virtue convinces people. Only then can we gather the hearts of the world and punish Xiang Yu. How can we kill innocent people at will?"
"Innocent? Who is innocent? My Yingbu family was killed, how about killing a few prisoners?" Yingbu said angrily: "It's just a child's opinion to persuade people with virtue! Prince, get out of the way quickly, don't delay my business." !”
Liu Ying didn't expect that this guy would be so unreasonable.
"Xiang Yu likes to kill, and the Han army likes to be virtuous, so I definitely won't do it!"
Liu Ying argued hard and refused to give in.
During the stalemate, Liu Bang and Chen Ping hurried over. The old gangster felt the tense atmosphere even though he was far away. When he got closer, he shouted directly: "Ying, this King of Jiujiang, you have to call me Zhongfu. Give him a quick salute."
Liu Ying was startled for a moment, but she still bowed obediently, "I've seen Father Zhong!"
Yingbu hesitated for a moment, not knowing what to say, and felt that it was very shameful to argue with the child, so he froze.
Liu Bang came over with a smile and put his arm around Yingbu. "I just came back from hunting. Let's go have a drink."
Ying Bu was still angry and didn't want to leave just like that.
However, Liu Bang leaned close to Yingbu's ear and whispered: "I have prepared thousands of elites to help my virtuous brother restore the country!"
Upon hearing this, Yingbu turned from anger to joy and followed Liu Bang away.
In the evening, Liu Bang sent the drunken Yingbu away and then called Liu Ying over.
Father and son faced each other, Liu Bang looked at Liu Ying who was still angry, suddenly smiled happily, and reached out to touch Liu Ying's forehead.
"Why, are you still angry?"
Liu Ying snorted: "No, I just can't figure it out. Why can't you listen even though you've already said the truth?"
"Hahaha!"
Liu Bang laughed loudly, pulled Liu Ying closer, and taught her earnestly.
"Ying, there are hundreds of people in this world. Your master, Prime Minister Xiao, and General Han are all wise and outstanding people. It is natural to reason with them. But there are also reckless men in this world who are as good as Yingbo. They just want to Just do what you want." Liu Bang said with emotion: "My father arranged for him a magnificent residence. He will not think more about it. He only thinks that his father is treating him well. If I give him soldiers and horses, he will only seek revenge on Xiang Yu. .”
"Xiao Zhuzi, you are very smart, but you must also understand that not everyone thinks so much. There is no one who cannot be used in this world, let alone a beast like Yingbu. You must learn to control people's hearts and prescribe the right medicine!"
Liu Bang's tone was calm and he taught earnestly.
Liu Ying was thoughtful. These words revealed the old gangster's way of employing people. It must be said that it was very profound.
Liu Ying took a deep breath and suddenly asked: "Is there really no one who can't be used? What about the Confucian scholars?"
In one sentence, the old gangster was speechless. After thinking seriously for a while, he said: "It's quite good to pee with a Confucian crown."
Liu Ying directly gave him a big eye roll, "My father is right to use all the talents in the world, but he cannot be accommodated in every possible way just because he is a talent. Yingbu is cruel and easy to kill, and is no different from Xiang Yu. If he is allowed to do whatever he wants, It will only spoil things."
Liu Bang frowned, "What you said is not wrong. That's why my father gave him thousands of people and asked him to lead the army alone to contact the old army and contain Xiang Yu. Even if something happens, it has nothing to do with my father."
Liu Ying shook her head, "What Yingbu does will definitely kill innocent people and damage my father's reputation. Father...how do you think we can defeat Xiang Yu?"
Liu Bang said with a smile: "Your master has said this, and Chen Ping has also said it. Why, you little brat, do you have any other insights?"
Liu Ying nodded, "Yes!"
"What?"
"Every time you fight against Yu, things can be accomplished!"
Liu Bang frowned, thoughtfully, and slapped his thigh suddenly, "Well said! Someone, call Zhou Chang and ask him to follow Yingbu. Yingbu is not allowed to kill innocent people indiscriminately! And tell Chen Ping, Release the prisoners immediately, give each of them a hundred coins, and let them go.”
Hundreds of captured Chu soldiers left the Han camp and came towards the Chu land.
At this time, in a remote corner of Chuying, a middle-aged woman was taking out water from the well. She was carrying a heavy wooden bucket on her shoulders, staggering to the side of the wooden basin and putting it down heavily.
He also took out a pile of dirty Chu army clothes from the room and washed them with cold well water.
After a while, her hands turned red from the cold, and she felt itchy.
But her movements were not slow at all, and she continued to wash them carefully... There were too many clothes, and she had to fetch water and rub them again and again. Gradually, her ten fingers all developed dense cracks, and it felt like scratching her heart and liver.
The woman seemed unaware, but finally cleaned it on time and dried it carefully, meticulously.
In the afternoon, an old soldier came to collect the clothes. Seeing that the woman had washed them so cleanly, he secretly advised her, "After all, they are all wounded in the battlefield. Just fool around."
The woman smiled lightly and said, "It is precisely because you fight on the battlefield and narrowly escape death that you should dress decently and cleanly."
Lao Jun frowned and said in confusion: "But they are all your husband's enemies!"
The woman smiled again, shook her head and said, "It's just that we can't help ourselves. Who wants to live in troubled times?"
After saying that, the woman turned to leave. Old Jun sighed heavily, suddenly took two steps and stuffed a bunch of stuff into the woman.
The woman held it tightly, without pausing, and went straight into the house. Once inside, she looked around and then slowly unfolded it. After reading only a few lines of words, tears welled up. She murmured: "Ying, Ying'er is still here." Alive! Alive!"
