"Fourth brother, what happened?" When they reached the place where there was no third person, Li Cunli looked at Li Cunren in front of him and asked.
"On that day in Taiyuan, the supervisor and the eldest brother had already laid an ambush. The foster father fell into their trap and was killed by Li Xingyun." Li Cunren looked at Li Cunli in front of him and said.
"As expected." Li Cunli sighed.
"Sixth brother, fourth brother is here to ask you if you are willing to be loyal to the supervisory country?" Li Cunren once again recalled the figure of Yuan Tiangang in his mind. He shook his head and shook the terrifying figure out of his mind. Then, he looked at Li Cunli in front of him and began to persuade him.
"It seems that Fourth Brother has made up his mind." Li Cunli looked at Li Cunren in front of him and said.
Hearing the word "Jianguo", Li Cunli knew what Li Cunren was thinking.
"Sixth brother, you have no choice."
…
Chu State.
Prince Chu's Mansion. Meng Zhixiang stepped into the palace of the King of Chu, surrounded by a group of waiters and Ma Xisheng, the son of the King of Chu.
'The people of Ma Yin are old and sophisticated, and have treacherous minds, which are difficult to deal with. 'Looking at Ma Xisheng who introduced him into Prince Chu's palace, the young man's face seemed to be full of innocence, Meng Zhixiang couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
There is no one easy to deal with among the princes in the world.
However, at this moment, neither Meng Zhixiang nor Ma Yin knew the news of Li Keyong's death, but knowing it would only push Ma Yin more towards the anti-Li Xingyun alliance, which has already been joined by Shu and Wu. The reason is simple. The natural opposition in stance determines everything.
Even if people with different positions can temporarily unite for a greater threat, there is no doubt that they will eventually become hostile.
"I've met the King of Chu." Seeing Ma Yin coming towards him, Meng Zhixiang opened his mouth and saluted the King of Chu, Ma Yin.
"Hey, I, an old man, have neglected the waiter. Mr. Meng, you won't blame me." King Chu Ma Yin was dressed in Chu king's robes, holding a cane, and slowly greeted Ma Xisheng and Meng Zhixiang.
The King of Chu, Ma Yin, had an old face and a short and lean figure, but his sharp eyes showed him to be a calculating master.
"Mr. Meng, please." Ma Yin looked at Meng Zhixiang in front of him and stretched out his hand in a gesture of invitation.
The banquets at the Prince of Chu's Mansion were very particular, using precious materials such as silk, gold and silver vessels, and jade for decoration. The walls of the banquet hall are covered with beautiful tapestries, and the roof is hung with gorgeous lights and paintings.
A variety of delicacies and delicious dishes are served at the banquet, served on jade plates. There are many types of dishes, including meat and vegetable combinations, hot and cold dishes. Each dish is carefully designed, not only in color matching, but also in exquisite presentation.
Meng Zhixiang saw that there would be many hot dancers at the banquet. All the dancers were wearing hot-style clothes, with slender waists, jade-like skin, slender legs, excellent figures, and delicate faces.
At the same time, King Ma Yin of Chu also displayed various treasures, such as jade, agate, famous paintings, etc. No one knew what the little old man was planning.
"Father, I'm going back first." Ma Xisheng looked at Ma Yin in front of him, bowed to him, and said.
The delicate face seemed confused.
"Go back? My old man is not in good health. He is almost too busy here. You stay to entertain Mr. Meng." Ma Yin looked at Ma Xisheng in front of him, and the doting look in his eyes flashed away. Hearing this, Ma Yin said calmly.
Naturally, he couldn't let Ma Xisheng go back. Meng Zhixiang was Li Keyong's son-in-law and a powerful figure in Jin. In recent years, he had deliberately cultivated Ma Xisheng, so he naturally wanted him to know more people, accumulate more connections, and accumulate more experience.
It's just that Ma Xisheng has always been evasive about this, but Ma Yin knew that his child evaded not because he was playful, but because he didn't want to compete with his elder brother.
Thinking of this, Ma Yin felt more love for Ma Xisheng in his heart.
"Mr. Meng, old man, I am old and my body is not as strong as when I was young. How about letting my second son sit with you?" Seeing Ma Xi's response, Ma Yin looked at Meng Zhixiang in front of him and said with a smile. .
"This is naturally the best, but it will delay the second young master's time." Meng Zhixiang looked at Ma Yin in front of him and said.
Meng Zhixiang knew that although Ma Yin was seeking his opinion, in fact, in Ma Yin's territory, it was the Chu State that the Jin State relied on Ma Yin for. In addition to following Ma Yin's ideas, he could not There is no other option.
"No delay, no delay, how can it be considered a delay to accompany Mr. Meng?
It is a blessing for children. "Ma Yin looked at Meng Zhixiang in front of him and smiled.
"I have my wish, but I dare not ask for your ear." Meng Zhixiang bowed his hands to Ma Yin and said.
"Mr. Meng, please." Ma Yin made a gesture of invitation towards Meng Zhixiang.
"King Chu, please." Meng Zhixiang responded respectfully.
…
In front of Xingzhou City.
Li Cunxu's army formed a spectacular formation. The soldiers lined up together in a serious and orderly manner, with neat steps and their armor shining with metallic light. Their queue stretched into the distance, seemingly endless. The Jin soldiers were dressed in armor and armed with spears, bows, arrows, swords and other weapons. Their weapons shone coldly.
The most important thing is that it can be clearly seen that this army has extremely strict military discipline. The soldiers are well-trained and strictly observe military discipline. They maintained a tight formation at this moment, no one wavered, and they were as towering as a mountain.
In the military formation, the soldiers hung various military flags with the characters "Li" and "Jin" written on them. These flags fluttered in the wind and were densely arranged in front of the formation, forming a scene of a forest of flags. At this moment, there are many flags in the military formation, and it is a spectacular and shocking sight from a distance.
Li Cunxu stood in the middle of the army formation, holding a long sword and swinging it violently.
"The King of Jin has given an order, and the army is marching out!" The Mirror Heart Demon next to Li Cunxu saw this, and he could be said to understand it, he shouted.
Then, the sergeants began to beat the war drums and blow the horns.
The army slowly began to march in an orderly manner.
The soldiers in the military formation were arranged in neat formations according to strict command and discipline. They marched side by side and in unison, forming an extremely spectacular human wall. The Jin soldiers' steps were steady and powerful, and the Black Crow Cavalry's iron hoofs stomped on the ground, which was like an earthquake, shocking the hearts of the people. The footsteps of the entire military formation gathered together, forming an overwhelming momentum.
This is what makes Li Cunxu different from others. If other people have strong enemies outside or internal troubles, they don’t know how to panic, but Li Cunxu doesn’t. The more dangerous the moment, the calmer and even more calm he is. Dare to take the initiative.
And the place where his army was pointing was none other than Zezhou, where Wang Yanzhang was stationed.
If a city is destroyed, the entire city will survive.
