Although Tian Feng's words were just to persuade Liu Xie to leave quickly, when they fell into Liu Xie's ears, the meaning completely changed. It was as if Liu Xie's idea was destined to fail. How could Liu Xie do it now?
Can you bear it? It's just that under the current situation, Liu Xie can't punish Tian Feng's crime. He can only stubbornly stick to his own opinion and must stay here and wait for Xu Huang.
Liu Xie was very stubborn, and Tian Feng was also a stubborn person, so he continued to dissuade him, but this time Ju Shou saw the opportunity early and stopped Tian Feng behind him, saying to Liu Xie: "Since your Majesty,
If you want to stay here, all you have to do is follow your Majesty’s instructions. However, all of your Highnesses are already tired. How about I ask you to take your Highnesses down to rest first?”
Jusuke's attitude was so respectful that Liu Xie had no excuse to object. He nodded and agreed to Jusuke's request. Jusuke immediately waved and asked his sergeants to take the princes and princesses, oh, and two more
All the concubines went down to rest. At the same time, they bowed to Liu Xie and pulled Tian Feng back.
After retreating, Tian Feng finally couldn't help it and complained to Ju Shou: "Gong Yu! How can your Majesty be so ridiculous? Not to mention whether Xu Gongming can successfully seize Luo Yang's family, even if Xu Gongming can succeed.
, how can the Western Qin soldiers and horses in the city rest? It is impossible for us to leave Western Qin with Luo Yang’s family members!"
Tian Feng was right. The route they discussed to escape from the Western Qin this time was the shortcut Luoyang took to enter the pass - Qingni Pass. The only threat from Qingni Pass was the Gao Gao stationed at Hangu Pass.
Shun! If he just left with the emperor, Gao Shun was guarding such an important pass as Hangu Pass and would not dare to leave without permission. But if Luo Yang's family members were kidnapped, Gao Shun would not sit idly by and watch anyway!
The trap camp under Gao Shun was already famous throughout the world during the Battle of Hangu Pass. Although the soldiers of the trap camp who fought against the Guandong princes back then have been completely wiped out, the trap camp that Gao Shun has retrained in recent years is not
How much worse than the trap camp back then! Being pursued by such an elite division, Tian Feng did not have the confidence to lead Liu Xie out of Western Qin safely.
In response to Tian Feng's question, Jushou also said with a wry smile: "Brother Yuan Hao, how could I not know the relationship between us? But from the look on His Majesty's face, it is clear that he wants to arrest Luo Yang's family members to vent his anger! You are contradicting him in public like this.
For him, it is even more difficult for him to step down. No matter how much we persuade him, he will not agree to leave! Instead of continuing to have an increasingly tense situation with His Majesty here, it is better to bet on it! General Xu is a talented general.
We can trust General Xu!"
"Hey——!" In fact, after so many years, Tian Feng didn't know how many things his bad temper had caused, but when things came to an end, he just couldn't help it. Even after sighing, he looked back far away.
Looking at Liu Xie's figure from a distance, he sighed to Jushou: "I thought I was a wise king back then, but now it seems..." At this point, Tian Feng stopped talking. I don't say anything about the king's fault. It's okay to know some things in my heart.
However, he couldn't express it verbally. Just from the disappointment on Tian Feng's face, one could see what Tian Feng was unable to say.
Tian Feng was disappointed, and Ju Shou was full of disappointment. In fact, their plans over the years did not take such a long time at all. But it was because Liu Xie did not calm down and insisted on sending Shi A to capture the Queen Mother He, which led to their
After his strength was exposed, he had to completely abandon the intelligence network that he had built with great difficulty and start from scratch. This was a delay of so many years. And the most pitiable thing was Na Shi'a. After that incident, the emperor took everything
All the faults were put on Shi A, and all the responsibilities on his own were eliminated. From that time on, Jushou knew that the emperor was also a heartless and unjust person. It was just the idea of loyalty to the emperor that Jushou had accepted since childhood that prevented him from betraying the emperor.
And go.
He patted Tian Feng's shoulder gently, fearing that Tian Feng couldn't help but argue with Liu Xie again, he quickly asked Tian Feng to arrange the members of the Han Dynasty, while he turned to take care of Liu Xie.
But this wait lasted for nearly an hour. It was almost dawn, but there was still no news from the cave entrance. Liu Xie, who was originally full of confidence, could not sit still at this moment.
, he was determined to stay here before, not only to win a breath, but also believed that Xu Huang's trip would be successful, and he hoped to use this to establish his reputation. But the reality is that Liu Xie is getting more and more
He is no longer confident. After all, he is still in danger. As Tian Feng said just now, if Xu Huang fails, he will face the pursuit of the Western Qin Army next!
Over the years, Luo Yang's power has left a lot of shadows on Liu Xie. When he thought that the Western Qin Army was about to pursue him, Liu Xie, who had just escaped from Luo Yang's control, was immediately entangled in fear. Liu Xie couldn't care less at that moment.
In order to save face, he said to Ju Shu, who had been staying by his side: "Ju Aiqing, look, did General Xu have an accident?"
Upon hearing Liu Xie's words, Jushou immediately understood that Liu Xie was afraid. He sighed helplessly, but he still had to treat Liu Xie respectfully. Jushou replied: "Your Majesty! General Xu has the talent of a general.
There are more than 8,000 soldiers around, which is more than the number of soldiers and horses of the Western Qin Dynasty Guards in the city, so nothing will happen. But it is not early now. I think after a night of tossing, Your Majesty should be tired too, so why not
Let’s go back and rest first! I’ll just let you guard this place!”
Jushu's words gave Liu Xie a step to step down. Liu Xie naturally wanted to seize this opportunity and nodded quickly. Suddenly he remembered what Jushu had just said and pretended to be tired again and hit him.
He yawned and said to Jushou: "What Ju Aiqing said makes sense! If that's the case, then I have to wait for General Xu again! I, I am indeed tired, so I will go back and rest early!" After that,
Liu Xie couldn't wait to leave from the entrance of the cave where he had been guarding all night. Under the escort of the sergeants, he prepared to leave this dangerous place.
"Your Majesty! Sir! There is something going on inside the cave!" Just when Liu Xie was about to leave, suddenly, the sergeant who had been guarding the entrance of the cave shouted loudly.
Hearing the sergeant shouting, Liu Xie immediately retracted his stepped foot, turned around and came directly to the sergeant, shouting to the sergeant with excitement on his face: "Seriously? Really?"
Is there any movement? Are General Xu and the others here?" Liu Xie worked hard all night just to wait for Xu Huang, and he almost left just now. Now that there is movement here, Liu Xie's hard work this night is worth it.
It's just that Liu Xie's question was a bit embarrassing for the sergeant. Although the sergeant's ears are more flexible, they are not as good as ears. How can he tell whether it is Xu Huang based on some footsteps? Fortunately, Ju Shou came to help at this time.
After the siege was relieved, Jushou said to Liu Xie: "Your Majesty, please be patient and wait aside."
After Ju Shou's advice, Liu Xie calmed down his mood temporarily and nodded. He was the emperor after all. It was indeed rude to be so eager. He immediately coughed lightly and wanted to retreat. But before Liu Xie could turn around,
, suddenly, a sharp sound of breaking through the air came from the entrance of the cave! Liu Xie's heart tightened, and he just subconsciously ducked to the side. At the same time, he grabbed something with one hand and blocked it directly in front of him.
"Ugh!" A muffled sound sounded, and Liu Xie felt a warm feeling spray onto his face, and his eyes were bright red. In front of Liu Xie, Jushu stared at Liu Xie with his eyes wide open.
A sharp arrow pierced out of his chest, and blood was still spreading on the arrow. Jushou also heard the sound of breaking through the air just now, but before he could react, he was caught by Liu Xie
, turned out to be Liu Xie’s shield!
At this moment, Liu Xie ignored Ju Shou's resentful eyes. Looking at the arrow protruding from Ju Shou's chest, Liu Xie looked frightened and hurriedly ran out of the temple on the ground, shouting loudly as he ran.
Get up: "Escort me! Escort me!"
In fact, there was no need for Liu Xie to shout like this. After seeing Jushu being hit by an arrow, the rebel soldiers standing next to him had already blocked the entrance of the cave, holding their weapons and looking at the dark cave with vigilant faces. It’s just that
After waiting for a long time, except for the arrow that killed Ju Suo at the beginning, there was no movement in the cave.
At this time, the rebels outside the mountain temple also gathered around, and many people protected Liu Xie. Two of them quickly helped the embarrassed Liu Xie up. Liu Xie was obviously beaten by what had just happened.
Yi Jian was so frightened that he kept struggling and shouted to the soldiers around him: "Escort! Hurry, escort! There are enemies!"
"What's going on?" There was such a big commotion here. How could Tian Feng, who had been sent away by Jushou before, not know about it? He rushed over quickly and saw that the soldiers inside and outside the mountain temple were all wary.
Liu Xie shouted crazily, and Tian Feng frowned, knowing something was wrong. Immediately, Tian Feng rushed to Liu Xie's side and asked Liu Xie: "Your Majesty! What happened?
?Where is Lord Ju?"
At this time, Liu Xie had long forgotten his dissatisfaction with Tian Feng. When he saw Tian Feng, he was like seeing a savior. He hurriedly grabbed Tian Feng's arm and shouted: "Tian Aiqing! Hurry! Hurry!
Take me away! The Western Qin Army is chasing me! They are chasing me!"
"Western Qin Army?" Looking at Liu Xie's crazy eyes, Tian Feng looked around with suspicion. Although the soldiers around him were alert, he couldn't see the shadow of half an enemy. Tian Feng
He quickly asked Liu Xie: "Your Majesty, where are the Western Qin troops?"
