King Qi struggled to get up, and sneered with a look of resentment: "Brother Chu? In your heart, he is a fair and honest gentleman, and I am a cruel and unkind villain? ”

Ling Shuang said helplessly: "Lord Wang, Ling Shuang doesn't want to argue with you. He sighed lightly, turned and walked away.

"Let's go!" King Qi said angrily: "Even if you go to find Chu Huan, I already knew that there would be today, since you want to be with him, why should you wronged yourself and stay by my side for so long?" It turns out that you are just a liar with false feelings! ”

Ling Shuang stopped, but did not look back, and said lightly: "Do you know what it means to be a real man?" Even if you encounter obstacles, dangers, and many tribulations, you will not retreat, you will only move forward, overcome obstacles, and hold on strongly, instead of complaining and giving up on yourself. Lord Wang, you still have a long way to go, Ling Shuang only hopes that you can wake up and don't take the wrong path. ”

"This king doesn't need you to teach." King Qi sneered: "Since you want to go to him, why bother with me? ”

Ling Shuang closed her eyes, with tears in the corners of her eyes, and finally walked lightly to the courtyard gate, stopped, hesitated, her expression became resolute, and she didn't look back, and left.

King Qi saw Ling Shuang's back disappear, stared blankly at the empty courtyard gate, and after a while, he looked up to the sky and screamed, his voice was terrible, and then he sat on the ground.

"You are all betraying this king!" King Qi muttered to himself: "Everyone is betraying this king, this king can still achieve great things without you!" ”

He sat on the ground, muttering to himself, and suddenly heard footsteps outside the door, and a figure appeared at the courtyard gate, King Qi only thought that Ling Shuang was going and returning, and hurriedly raised his head and said, "Ling Shuang, you don't want it!" ”

saw a burly figure walking over, squinted his eyes, but saw that it was Lu Cunxiao.

Lu Cunxiao was a little surprised when he saw King Qi sitting on the ground, and saw that he was drunk, and he was busy coming over to help, but King Qi waved his hand and said vaguely: "Go away, what are you doing here?" ”

Lu Cunxiao took two steps back and arched his hand: "Lord Wang, there is news from the front, and Chu Du has sent someone back to report the news." ”

"What did he say?" King Qi's head was a little dizzy, struggling to stand up, but he was top-heavy, but it was difficult to get up for a while, Lu Cunxiao could only step forward to help him up, and then he said: "Lord, a great happy event, Chu Du sent someone to report it quickly, just arrived, and brought news that Xigu Pass has been conquered, and the pass has been controlled in the hands of our army." ”

"Huh?" King Qi was stunned.

Lu Cunxiao said with a smile: "In addition, Chu Du seized a lot of grain materials in Xigu Pass, and ordered our grain team not to go to the pass for the time being, and the grain of the grain team will be stored in Zài Jiazhou for the time being." ”

"Don't go?" King Qi frowned and said, "Then will you stay in Jiazhou tomorrow?" ”

Lu Cunxiao said respectfully: "Exactly, since the military order has come to the governor of Chu, we will naturally stay in Jiazhou." The last general has already sent people out of the city to transfer grain into the city for temporary storage, and other soldiers and horses are camped on the spot and stationed outside the city, waiting for Chu Du's next military order! ”

"Why don't you consult with the king first?" King Qi interrupted coldly: "Has this king ever ordered to be stationed on the spot?" ”

Lu Cunxiao was stunned, but he didn't react for a while, and said: "Lord Wang, this is a military order sent by Chu Du, and the last general will naturally act in accordance with the military order." ”

"Chu Huan sent someone to deliver the letter, is it for you, or for this king?" King Qi asked coldly.

Although Lu Cunxiao was very brave on the battlefield, he was a simple and honest person, and said honestly: "I sent someone to convey the military order to the last general, and the last general knew that the prince had been waiting for news, so he came to report it." ”

King Qi sneered: "It turns out that this king wants to get a front-line battle report, and it depends on your mood!" ”

Lu Cunxiao was no matter how simple he was, but he also understood the meaning of this sentence, knelt down on one knee, and said hurriedly: "Lord Wang, the last general will lose his words!" ”

King Qi said lightly: "Since Chu Huan said that he captured Xigu Pass, this grain and grass don't need to be transported over, do they want to return to the division?" ”

"I didn't say that." Lu Cunxiao said: "However, taking Xigu Pass, naturally, after a hard battle, the general thought that Chu Du should rest there for a few days and re-arm the pass." ”

King Qi said: "Pass on the king's order, tomorrow at dawn, the team will continue to advance in the direction of Xigu Pass!" ”

Lu Cunxiao frowned and said, "Lord Wang, Governor Chu has issued a military order, let's stay in Jiazhou for the time being!" ”

"You will disobey the king's commands?" King Qi changed color and said.

Lu Cunxiao hurriedly said: "The last general will not dare." It's just that the team continues to move forward, which not only destroys Chu Du's deployment, but also increases the consumption of grain and grass! ”

King Qi sneered: "In this case, the baggage team doesn't have to go, just bring his soldiers and horses to go, since Chu Huan has won a big victory, this king will always go to the pass to reward them." ”

"Lord Wang, most of the troops in Jiazhou have been transferred, and the guards are weak, and the last three thousand soldiers and horses are just to protect the safety of this batch of grain and grass." Lu Cunxiao said: "Since the grain and grass have to stay in Jiazhou, these 3,000 soldiers and horses naturally cannot be transferred lightly. These grains are raised by Shuoquan with great difficulty, if there is a loss, the end will be a small crime, and the big thing of Chu Du will be ruined, and the end will not be redeemed. ”

King Qi frowned and said, "Lost? Who would dare to fight the idea of this batch of grain and grass? ”

"Lord Wang, now that there is a famine in many places in the northwest, there must be many people with bad intentions." Lu Cunxiao said patiently: "Chu Du thought of this, so a certain amount of troops were deployed in various important places in the northwest to defend it. The grain in our hands is undoubtedly a big gold mine in the northwest, if these 3,000 soldiers and horses guard the grain and grass, naturally no one will dare to act rashly, but once the soldiers and horses are transferred and the defense is weak, the last general is worried that there will be bandits who will take the opportunity to seize the grain! ”

King Qi sneered: "You were also a mountain bandit before, and you were recruited to return to the imperial court, and you understand the bandits' minds. ”

Lu Cunxiao changed color slightly, but he still said: "So the last general thinks that unless the military order is sent by Chu Du, the three thousand soldiers and horses under the last general must not leave the grain for half a step." ”

King Qi said angrily: "What do you mean, that is, this king can't command you and the three thousand soldiers and horses? ”

"The military order is like a mountain, and the last general will not dare to disobey the order of Chu Du." Lu Cunxiao's tone was resolute: "If the prince insists on transferring these 3,000 soldiers and horses, he can only kill the last general first." ”

King Qi was furious, and his probe pulled out his saber from Lu Cunxiao's waist, Lu Cunxiao knelt on one knee, his face did not change, but he held his fist with a firm gaze.

"Huh!"

The blade was already on Lu Cunxiao's throat, and King Qi stared at Lu Cunxiao's eyes and said sharply: "What now? Can the king mobilize them? ”

Lu Cunxiao said calmly: "Lord Wang, without the military order of the governor of Chu, the last general will never let the soldiers under his command leave the two teams for half a step, and without the military order of the governor of Chu, these grains will not leave Jiazhou one step." ”

"You!" King Qi only felt that the blood in his chest was tumbling, Lu Cunxiao was just a subordinate general under Chu Huan, and in terms of status, he was not the same as Pei Ji and Xuanyuan Shengcai, and he was not even as good as Xu Shao, Han Ying, Fang Rushui and others.

But such a partial general, he didn't care about his orders, King Qi was extremely angry in his heart, and laughed angrily: "Lu Cunxiao, do you think that this king will not dare to kill you?" ”

Lu Cunxiao raised his head slightly, his eyes were like ice, and he said lightly: "Who does the prince want to kill, naturally he doesn't dare, but the last general wants to remind the prince that many of the three thousand soldiers and horses guarding the grain and grass this time are unruly, if the prince kills the last general, please also ask the prince to order them to be killed immediately, otherwise the last general is worried that they will have an accident." ”

"You're threatening the king?" King Qi was even more annoyed, and the blade pushed forward.

"Yingren, stop!" A scolding came, King Qi looked up, but saw that the queen had hurried over, and in a moment, the queen's plump figure had stepped forward quickly, reached out and grabbed King Qi's wrist, and pulled his arm aside.

She saw King Qi in a drunken state, and saw the empty wine jug thrown on the ground, knowing that King Qi must be drunk, the face full of beautiful woman's mature and beautiful style was annoyed and sad, and snatched the big knife from King Qi's hand.

"Queen Mother, you!"

Lu Cunxiao had already saluted the queen respectfully: "The last general, Lu Cunxiao, meet the queen." ”

"General Lu Lu, King Qi has drunk a few more glasses, don't take it to heart." The queen sent the big knife to Lu Cunxiao, Lu Cunxiao took it with both hands, put the knife back into the sheath, but the queen said gently: "General Lu, you are in military affairs, go down first to do military affairs." ”

Lu Cunxiao said respectfully: "The last general will obey the order!" He got up, arched his hand to Yingren, turned around and left.

When King Qi saw Lu Cunxiao leaving, he turned his eyes to the queen and was about to speak, but he heard a crisp sound of "pop", and the queen slapped King Qi in the face.

King Qi was stunned, a little dazed, feeling hot on his face, the queen's slap was really not light, since he was a child, King Qi had not been beaten like this by the queen, and he couldn't react for a while.

"Mother, mother, what are you doing?" After a deathly silence, King Qi came to his senses.

The queen's face was angry, "Yingren, do you know what you were doing just now? Are you going to kill yourself? ”

"Me!"

"Lu Cunxiao is Chu Huan's general, if you kill him, do you know what the consequences will be?" The queen said angrily: "Lu Cunxiao is nothing wrong, you kill the generals indiscriminately, even if the saint kills people at the beginning, you have to find a reasonable reason, what are you now?" If Chu Huan and the Northwest soldiers knew, did you know the consequences? ”

King Qi covered half of his face and sneered, "Could it be that Chu Huan still wants to kill me?" ”

"You killed the general who didn't have any guilt, even if Chu Huan wouldn't do anything to you if he took care of his feelings, do you think those soldiers of the Northwest Army would just give up?" The queen looked sad and angry, shook her head and said: "If that's the case, then even if you want to be a teacher, I'm afraid you won't have that chance Yingren, what's wrong with you, how did you become like this?" Looking up at the bright moon in the sky, he sighed: "With your temperament, don't say that you can achieve great things, I'm afraid that even your own life will be cut off in your own hands sooner or later." ”R1058
