"When the time comes, will Chu Chu listen to the king or the general?"
As soon as these words came out, it was shocking!
The atmosphere in the main hall became more solemn, even almost dead.
Jing Tong was silent.
He knew in his heart that Showa's worries were not without reason.
Xiang Yan is not a kind person.
The Xiang family is not unknown in Dachu.
With the Xiang family's foundation in Da Chu, once Xiang Yan leads hundreds of thousands of troops to Huainan, the position of the King of Chu will become very embarrassing.
Likewise, so do they.
After thinking this, Jing Tong also spoke and said: "Your Majesty, Yin Zhi's worries are not unreasonable!"
"The general's dissatisfaction with the king and us is obvious!"
"Once an army of four to five million people pours into Huainan, how will the king handle himself?"
"This great Chu belongs to the king, or to Xiang Yan!"
"The concerns of the two beloved ministers are not unreasonable, but what the general requested is also true!"
The King of Chu looked solemn as he was carrying his cud. He himself was a rebel.
Naturally, it is clear that at this time, having an army in hand is the key.
"Send our people to keep an eye on Uncle Xiang!"
"At the same time, ministers were sent to Huaibei to investigate the situation in the army under the pretext of escorting grain and grass."
"Keeping an eye on Dian Xiang and Chu Di in secret!"
"promise."
With an order, everyone took action.
Regarding their own safety, neither Grand Sima Jingtong nor Ling Yin Zhaohe took matters lightly.
Although King Chu of Chu did not express his position clearly.
But these edicts are the greatest attitude.
........
In the official post.
Xiang Bo looked solemn, and when he thought about the task Xiang Yan gave him, he felt a little tangled in his heart.
In his opinion, it was too risky to act at this moment.
After thinking about it again and again, he decided to write a letter to his elder brother Xiang Qu.
in case.
After sending the family letter, Xiang Bo just got up, walked out of the official post, and visited Qu.
After all, Xiang Bo is young, far less sophisticated than Xiang Yan, and not as thoughtful as Xiang Liang.
This piece of news was immediately delivered to the hands of Grand Sima Jingtong.
After receiving the news, Jing Tao sent personnel to inform Showa.
The two of them came together.
"I will pay my respects to the king. The king has been king for ten thousand years, and Chu has been great for ten thousand years——!" Entering the main hall of Chu palace, Jing Tong and Zhaohe said, bowing to the king of Chu and bowing his cud.
They had followed the King of Chu for many years, and their interests were consistent.
"Da Sima, your Majesty, you don't need to be so polite, please stay on your own!"
The King of Chu looked at the two of them with his crotch on his back and said, "You two are entering the palace now. What important matters do you have?"
Hearing this, Jingtong and Zhaohe looked at each other and said, "Your Majesty, I have just received three pieces of news, and I came here to report them to Your Majesty."
"explain!"
At this moment, the King of Chu became serious when he carried his cud.
He knew in his heart that the news that Jing Tong could pay attention to was definitely not simple.
"promise."
Nodding in agreement, Jing Tong spoke, "Your Majesty, Xiang Bo is writing a letter to the Xiang family in Jiangdong."
"The specific information is unknown at the moment because the letter was not intercepted!"
"Besides, Xiang Bo visits Qu!"
"What happened? Since we can't get close, we never know!"
.........
Hearing this, the King of Chu did not blame him for carrying the cud. Jing Tong asked three questions, because he knew that he could not intercept Xiang Bo's family letters before falling out with Xiang Yan.
Once intercepted, no matter what the content is, it means that they are at odds with Xiang Yan.
At the moment, they can't afford to change their face.
Moreover, the Qu family is one of the three major families in Chu.
The strength and power are not inferior to those of the Jing family and the Zhao family. It is normal to not get the news, but it is abnormal to get the news easily.
With lightning flashing in his mind, the King of Chu opened his mouth and said: "Da Sima, these are the two items, what is the third item?"
At this moment, Jingtong and Zhaohe looked at each other, and said in a solemn tone: "Your Majesty, I have heard from the gossip that Lord Changping of the violent Qin Dynasty, my young master of Chu, a bloodline of the late king, and a younger brother of the king, is currently in the presence of the general. In the army.”
"It is rumored that the general is dissatisfied with the king and intends to support the young master Mi Qi."
"Set the capital at Lanling, use the great river as a natural barrier, purge the great Chu, and fight against the violent Qin!"
"At the same time, I sent an investigation. Before the Qin Dynasty marched south, the young master Mi Qi was stationed in Chendi and had contact with the general."
"Not long after, Qin Wangzheng discovered the matter and transferred his son Mi Qi away from Chendi and made him the governor of Yingchuan County."
"But suddenly, Bao Qin, led by Gongzi Shu, blocked Xianyang and uprooted the entire Chu clan!"
"Young Master Shu personally led the Iron Eagle warriors to Yingchuan County, but Young Master Mi Qi escaped!"
At this point, Jing Tao changed the subject and said: "Your Majesty, the truth of this news is unknown!"
"Moreover, when I was investigating Young Master Mi Qi's situation in Qin, I was too relaxed and encountered no obstruction at all."
"It's as if someone knew that I wanted to investigate, and then sent the answer to my hands!"
"..."
Hearing this, Zhaohe looked ugly, turned to the King of Chu and said, "Your Majesty, this matter must be investigated thoroughly!"
"You should also be more careful about the general!"
"If this matter is true, a great Chu master, a great general of Chu..."
Showa didn't finish his words, but everyone present understood the meaning of his words.
At this time, the King of Chu looked livid and said in a deep voice, "Don't make false statements until the matter is investigated clearly!"
"The people of Qin are good at using dissension. I can still remember clearly what happened to Lord Wu An of Zhao!"
"The same goes for the Battle of Changping!"
"promise."
At this moment, Zhaohe and Jingtama nodded in agreement, indicating that they understood.
However, they understood that the King of Chu was carrying the cud.
This matter is not over at all, this is just the beginning.
Such a situation could not be explained by King Chu's lack of attention. Once Mi Qi was really hidden by Xiang Yan, then Xiang Yan's purpose of withdrawing his troops from Huainan would be too obvious.
"I've passed the order, and the tribal army is under the command of deputy general Jing Qi."
"Ask military advisor Zhao Tao to lead the general's 100,000 elite troops and return to Huainan first to make arrangements for the retreat of the army!"
"At the same time, check this matter and determine whether Mi Qi is in the general's army!"
"promise."
Nodding in agreement, Jingtama and Zhaohe had no objection.
It is more reliable to have the army in your own hands than to have it in Xiang Yan's hands.
Now that the King of Chu is carrying Chu, they are the only ones he can rely on.
After all, Xiang Bo was able to visit the Qu family, which meant that the deputy general Qu Ding had already colluded with Xiang Yan.
At this thought, Zhaohe and Jingtong also became solemn in their hearts.
Although King Chu of Chu had already made a decision.
However, whether it can be implemented is still unknown.
Once Xiang Yan notices it, there will definitely be a chaos.
At this moment, Zhaohe and Jingzhu hurriedly walked toward the King of Chu and said, "Your Majesty, this matter is of great importance. Please make arrangements immediately!"
"I am requesting the king to leave Xiang Bo in the capital."
"At the same time, move the general's family to the capital!"
