Liu Ji wanted to kill someone, but Fan Kuai was a little reluctant. He stopped Liu Ji and said, "Brother, they didn't see our faces. ↙八↙八↙Read↙书,...※.o◇If you don't like it, at worst, put them back." Yes, why kill him?"

People around him also nodded, feeling a little helpless.

They did rob merchants, but they always sought wealth rather than life. Of course, he would occasionally kill one or two people, but most of them were accidentally killed by mistake.

These people still think that they are honest and honest Guizhou leaders and have not yet turned around.

Liu Ji looked at the sack on the ground and shook his head: "We can't put them back. If we let them go back, they will know where we are hiding. If they come back with the officers and soldiers to fight back, we will all die."

The people around him nodded immediately, feeling that this statement made sense. I have no choice but to kill him today.

Fan Kuai added: "If brother is worried, why don't I knock them out and send them back."

Liu Ji said: "I'm confused. I haven't figured out what's going on in Pei County now. If you go back, aren't you going to fall into a trap?"

Fan Kuai thought for a while and then said: "How about I get married to her on this mountain. When she becomes my mother-in-law and I become her man, she will naturally obey me. If she reports on me, that's not true. Is it equivalent to making yourself a widow?"

Liu Ji's eyes widened with anger. Fan Kuai's logic was so weird that Liu Ji didn't know how to refute it.

When Fan Kuai saw that he was silent, he immediately climbed up the pole and said to the person behind him: "Hurry, hurry, hurry, brother agreed, take these two people into the cave and keep them under strict supervision. However, they must be blindfolded. We can untie it after we get married."

Someone next to him asked Liu Ji in a low voice: "Are you really going to keep these two people?"

Liu Ji shook his head: "I can't keep it. However, I have another idea."

Everyone came together.

Liu Ji said: "Lv Taigong has lost two daughters, so he must be very anxious. As Lu Taigong's best friend, County Magistrate Pei is probably very anxious too. If at this time, we pretend to be chivalrous and righteous people, help him Has your daughter been sent back?"

Everyone's eyes lit up: "This is a good strategy."

Soon, someone said with some disappointment: "No, the envoys in Xianyang City are looking for us. As soon as we show up, we will be arrested."

Liu Ji shook his head: "I don't think so. It's not yet clear why the Xianyang envoy came. Besides, if he can't find me, he won't be able to stay in Peixian for a long time. He has probably left by this time."

"Let's first send a person to quietly return to Pei County to look for Mr. Xiao He and ask him about the situation. If the messenger really wants to kill me, then we will be a bandit. If the messenger is looking for me, there is another reason. , then we will take these two women and go down the mountain in glory."

Everyone around nodded vigorously.

Then someone asked: "However, it is very dangerous to enter the city at this time. Who should be allowed to go?"

Liu Ji looked at Fan Kuai.

Fan Kuai shivered and said with a grimace: "Pei County is a dragon's den and a tiger's den. Maybe I was caught just as I entered."

Liu Ji said: "Weren't you clamoring to send these two women back just now? Now I give you a chance to marry them gracefully, are you unwilling?"

Fan Kuai whispered: "I don't want to."

Liu Ji kicked him over and said, "Go quickly."

Fan Kuai had no choice but to go back down the mountain three times at a time. 】eight】eight】reading】books,.2√3.¢o

Liu Ji sat on the stone, closing his eyes slightly, thinking about his future.

If the envoy is looking for him because he is really found guilty of robbing his family and wants to behead his head... then he might as well not go back and become a thief. Anyway, there are a lot of thieves in Chu area, so having such a group is nothing.

If the messenger is looking for him because of some misunderstanding, maybe because of the same name, maybe because of something else... then he will go back and continue to be the chief of the pavilion.

If the envoy left on the surface, he secretly asked Pei County Magistrate to arrest him. That's okay, everyone in the entire Surabaya Pavilion is unclean. With their tip-off, he could escape, but Magistrate Pei could do nothing.

What's more, he, the county magistrate, is just an external official. I still have a few friends in Pei County. If the magistrate really wants to kill someone, he may not be able to fight hard, but he can still escape. Didn’t you successfully escape this time?

Liu Ji thought about his future clearly, and the more he thought about it, the more at ease he felt, and finally he just lay down and took a nap.

While Liu Ji was sleeping, he didn't know that there was another group of people a few miles away.

This group of people is also hiding in the mountains, and there are more people than Liu Ji.

The leaders of this group are nominally Xiang Pi and his grandson. In fact, it was Wang Heng.

Xiang Pi's grandson was already revered by Wang Heng as King Huai of Chu, and he was named Xiong Xin.

On this day, Xiong Xin sat on his knees on a high stone, like a prince sitting on a throne. Wang Heng and others all knelt and sat on the straw.

Although there are only a few hundred people left in this group, and they are dressing more and more like thieves, they have never forgotten the etiquette of going to court.

Xiong Xin looked at the civil and military officials below and couldn't help but sigh.

He sighed, not because he was worried about the country and the people, nor because he was lamenting his fate. But...the stone was too hard and not suitable for kneeling. If possible, he really wanted to kneel on the straw.

Wang Heng and others were discussing state affairs. Judging from their serious expressions, it looks very much like that. But if you listen carefully to the content, you will laugh out loud.

For example, I discovered a mountain spring somewhere, and the water was crystal clear. For example, I found a cave somewhere, which can provide shelter from wind and rain...

Such trivial matters were discussed seriously.

After Wang Heng and others talked for a while, they stood up and said to Xiong Xin: "Your Majesty, it's time to change the residence."

Xiong Xin nodded.

He had no objection to this, and he had also heard the discussion among the ministers just now. That cave is relatively spacious and dry, so you won't feel cold when sleeping in it.

What's even better is that there is a mountain spring dozens of steps away. From now on, you can drink living water...

When everyone was about to move, someone suddenly ran over panting.

This was one of the spies sent by Wang Heng to nearby counties.

The spy first saluted Xiong Xin, then passed him directly and said to Wang Heng: "Your Excellency, Prime Minister, there is news."

Wang Heng immediately stopped the spies and asked first: "Is it good news or bad news?"

The spy said, "That's good news."

Wang Heng breathed a sigh of relief.

There are only so few people left now, and they can no longer bear the torment of bad news.

Wang Heng stretched out his hand to stop the spy who was about to speak: "Don't tell me yet, let me guess."

Wang Heng was not in a hurry to hear the good news. Good news is like a glass of wine. If you drink it all in one go, it will be gone.

You should first put it under your nose and smell the aroma of the wine carefully. After sniffing enough, lick it with your tongue to feel the taste of the wine. Then put a little bit on your lips and taste it carefully.

Then take a small sip, filling your entire mouth with the mellow aroma of the wine. Until the end, you can pour the wine in one go. From the mouth to the throat to the stomach...warm, warm, and comfortable all over the body...

Wang Heng, who has been unlucky for too long, is also reluctant to hear the hard-won good news at once. He wants to divide the good news into many parts and slowly feel the joy.

So Wang Heng asked the spies: "This good news of yours is about Huaiguzi? Could it be that Huaiguzi is dead?"

The spy shook his head: "It has nothing to do with Huaiguzi."

Wang Heng thought for a while and then said: "Is your good news related to the Wang family? Could it be that the emperor regretted it and pardoned my entire Wang family, built my grandfather's tomb, and buried him with royal rites. And he himself Wept bitterly and read the memorial in person?"

The spy smiled bitterly and said, "It has nothing to do with the Wang family."

Wang Heng closed his eyes and thought for a while: "Could it be that a merchant has finally passed by nearby and allowed us to rob him?"

The spy said: "Not a merchant either. He is..."

Wang Heng waved his hand: "Don't tell me, I'll guess again."

The spy looked helpless.

Wang Heng guessed very happily: "Could it be that they are officials from nearby counties and counties? I heard that King Chu Huai is here and are willing to submit to me, the Great Chu?"

The spy said: "No."

Only then did Wang Heng feel that it was almost done. You can drink up the good news in one gulp and feel the joy happily.

So he said to the spies: "Speak."

The spy said: "Xiang Yu is nearby."

Wang Heng was suddenly surprised: "Xiang Yu?"

His first reaction was, what good news is this? But Wang Heng soon came to his senses. He is also a rebel now.

Xiang Yu and himself are both rebels, and both are downtrodden rebels. Maybe we can unite to resist the Qin people.

So Wang Heng nodded with satisfaction and said to the spy: "Keep talking, keep talking."

The spy said: "The villain was near Pei County yesterday. He heard a burst of shouting, and then there was a light of fire. So the villain lurked nearby."

"As a result, I saw about ten people entering a house, shouting: Xiang Yu of Chu is here... They plundered a lot and then left. The villain followed them all the way and already knew where they were hiding. place."

Wang Heng frowned: "Is there someone who is pretending to be someone else? Are the bandits around here bluffing?"

The spy said: "At first, the villain thought so too. But after thinking about it carefully, I think it is unlikely."

Wang Heng asked: "What's the explanation?"

The spy said: "Prime Minister, think about it. If they are really bandits, what they are most afraid of is attracting the attention of the government. As long as they raise the banner of rebelling against the bandit Xiang Yu, there will be officers and soldiers to surround and suppress them with all their strength. Aren't they looking for death?"

"If other rebels want to use Xiang Yu's name to recruit refugees, it will be even more impossible. The Xiang family has been completely defeated. Even because of their implication, there are not many households with the surname Xiang in Chu. Now Xiang Yu's two This word is not honorable. Who else would raise this banner except Xiang Yu himself? Isn’t this looking for scolding?"

Wang Hengshen nodded with approval: "Yes, there is only Xiang Yu. The Prime Minister is familiar with that person. Although he is not old, he is very arrogant. If he robs others, he will definitely not change his name or surname."

Thinking of this, Wang Heng suddenly became enlightened: "Pei County, it turns out that Xiang Yu has been hiding in Peixian? No wonder the merchants coming from the direction of Peixian always look unlucky and can't even find a tael on them. It turns out that When they passed through Pei County, they had already been robbed once."

The spy said: "Exactly, the villain thinks so too."

Wang Heng nodded, thought for a while and said: "Xiang Yu, your martial arts are good. If my resourcefulness is combined with his martial arts, wouldn't it be a combination of wisdom and bravery? It's hard to say that you can rebel against Qin, but you can establish a new branch in Chu. It’s enough.”

Thinking of this, Wang Heng said: "Here, bring some paper and pen."

Where is there paper and pen in the barren mountains? The people around simply cut off a piece of bark. Wang Heng used a knife to carve a few words on the bark, expressing his willingness to join forces with Xiang Yu. He then handed it to the spy and asked him to deliver it to Xiang Yu immediately.

Liu Ji was on the mountain looking for the stars and the moon, but he didn't look forward to Fan Kuai. But a stranger arrived.

This person obviously came here for Liu Ji. Everyone was very nervous.

When the man saw Liu Ji, he quickly raised his hand and said with a smile: "The villain is not a bad person. He just wants to see General Xiang Yu to discuss important matters."

Liu Ji became even more frightened after hearing this: What? Has my pretending to be Xiang Yu been seen through?

Soon, the spy was tied up. Liu Ji pointed his sword at the spy: "Who else knows?"

The spy was almost crying: "My prime minister also knows."

Liu Ji is going crazy. The emperor's people came yesterday, and the prime minister's people came today. Do you have such a big face? Even if you pretend to be a rebel, it won't be like this, right?

The spy saw that Liu Ji was holding a sword and was about to chop it down at any time, so he quickly said: "He is not the prime minister of Qin people, but the prime minister of Chu."

Liu Ji was stunned and looked at the people around him. The people around me were also a little confused.

Liu Ji looked down the mountain and thought: We just escaped up the mountain for one day, will Chu be restored to power? So fast?

The spy was afraid that Liu Ji would strike again, so he quickly explained the cause and effect.

After listening to this, Liu Ji finally understood what was going on. It turns out that he was seen pretending to be Xiang Yu last night. And this person is another group of rebels, and they really thought Xiang Yu was here.

Liu Ji and others left the spies here, and then went to a distance to discuss.

Liu Ji whispered: "The other party seems to be able to use it. The dozen of us are short of weapons, horses, money and food. Why not use Xiang Yu's name to get some from the other party."

The person next to me was a little scared: "They are really rebels. If we do this, aren't we collaborating with thieves? Robbery of merchants means beheading, but annihilation of the clan."

Liu Ji cursed: "Idiot, we are Xiang Yu's people now, who knew we were the ones who did it?"

Everyone thought about it and felt that this made sense.

Liu Ji said in a low voice: "If nothing happens in Ruopei County, let's blackmail him and go back. I'm afraid he won't be able to find us. If Ruopei County can't go back, let's just join forces with this person. They have strong soldiers and horses and can help us block it." Pursuit by officers and soldiers.”

Everyone nodded.

One of them said: "However, what he is looking for is Xiang Yu. From what he means, he seems to know Xiang Yu, but there is no such person among us."

Liu Ji stood up, cleared his throat and said, "Why don't I call myself Xiang Yu's righteous brother? Just say that Xiang Yu went down the mountain to make friends with righteous men and will not be here for the time being." 11 Baidu "I was a great leader in the Qin Dynasty" "Literature" latest chapters can be read for free as soon as possible.
