16 Who should I help?

"Okay!" King Chu felt relieved, "Then I will feel relieved."

At this time, the flag officer came in and reported, "His Royal Highness the King of Chu, Commander Zhao wants to see you. There is an urgent military situation!"

King Chu's eyes lit up, "Please come quickly!"

"Yes!" The flag officer clasped his fists and turned around to go out.

King Chu asked Lin Xia and I to sit down, and then he returned to his seat and sat down firmly.

Soon, a tired and tired general walked into the inner hall, hugged the King of Chu and said, "His Royal Highness, the general is back!"

"How is the situation?" King Chu asked.

"Huayang fell, and all 50,000 defenders were martyred," Commander Zhao said. "The 100,000 Xiongnu forwards have crossed Huayang and are coming towards Yongzhou!"

King Chu was stunned, "Huayang... was lost?"

"Yes!" Commander Zhao said.

"No! This is impossible!" King Chu stood up suddenly and looked at him excitedly, "Huayang City has high walls and thick walls, and the 50,000 troops led by guard Chen Meng are all our elite troops! The Xiongnu did not have any weapons to attack the city. They

How can we capture Huayang?!"

"The Huns do not have any weapons to attack the city, but there are strangers in their army," Commander Zhao said. "The general found out that during this southern expedition, the Huns' Guoman Shanyu brought a strange woman from the Western Regions. This woman

She is unparalleled in beauty and proficient in magic. Last night before the Xiongnu attacked the city, this woman stepped on the black clouds and performed magic in the air. Our Huayang defenders suddenly lost their combat effectiveness and collapsed on the city wall one by one. The dead Huns took the opportunity to climb onto the city wall.

, opened the city gate, and Huayang fell..."

"Sorcery?" King Chu frowned.

"Yes!" Commander Zhao's eyes turned red, "Sorcery!"

King Chu subconsciously looked at Lin Xia and me.

I stood up and clasped my fists, "Your Highness, don't worry, I will destroy this witch for Your Highness!"

"Okay!" King Chu stood up and told Commander Zhao, "Go and rest."

"Your Highness, the Xiongnu army will be approaching the city tomorrow morning," Commander Zhao said, "our army needs to prepare early!"

King Chu nodded, "I have my own arrangements!"

Commander Zhao clasped his fists and said, "Yes! I will retire at the end of the day!"

He took a few steps back, turned around and walked out of the inner hall.

King Chu waited for him to go out, and then he let out a sigh of relief.

He looked at me and said, "Sir, should I wait here for the Huns or take the initiative to attack? Please make a decision for me, sir."

"Take the initiative," I said calmly.

He thought for a while and nodded, "Okay! I will summon the generals and prepare the army. After dark, go out of the city and march north to meet the Xiongnu!"

He looked at the two of us and said, "Sir and Miss Lin, please rest in the mansion. Later, we will go on an expedition with my king!"

"Okay", we both said in unison.

He turned around and ordered his subordinates, "Lead Mr. and Miss Lin to the back house without neglect."

"Yes!" the official said respectfully.

We hugged the King of Chu and followed the officials out of the inner hall.

When we arrived at the back house, the official arranged a very elegant room for us, and then ordered people to bring us wine and food.

After the arrangements were made, he stood up and left.

The maids also withdrew, leaving only Lin Xia and me in the room.

I looked at the food and wine on the table. It was very rich, but unfortunately, I still couldn't eat it.

"Let's have some tea," I said to her.

"Okay", she waved her hand gently and two cups of hot tea appeared.

I picked it up, took a few sips, put down the tea bowl, and let out a long breath.

Lin Xia looked at me and said, "It looks like we have to help him fight this battle."

I nodded.

"The question is winning or losing," she said. "The King of Chu and the Huns are both illusions. Who do you think will trap us, the King of Chu? Or the Huns?"

"I'm thinking about this issue," I said. "From the previous events, the King of Chu should represent the force that trapped us. Considering this, we should help the Xiongnu. And when we are inferior, we are superior, and those who are inferior are inferior.

, the superior one wins, now it seems that the King of Chu is obviously at a disadvantage, does that mean we should choose the Huns?"

I looked at her.

"I also think we should choose the Huns," she said.

I smiled knowingly and nodded, "It's just that if we do this, we will have to be sorry for His Highness the King of Chu."

"Actually, have you noticed that since we were trapped in this world, every incident has tested our humanity?" She looked at me.

"How do you say that?" I asked.

"First of all, it's the matter of Taiwei Sun," she said. "He asked us to exorcise evil spirits and save his daughter. We are entrusted by others and should be loyal to others. But if we really do that, we will be trapped;

Next comes the matter of Hu Fu. As the crown prince and I as the crown prince, the emperor ordered us to lead the army on an expedition. During the expedition, one of my two brothers intended to rebel. They are my brothers. I should care about the brotherhood and everything.

The judgment ultimately points to Lin Zuo. If I kill Lin Zuo, I will actually kill Lin You. In that case, we will be trapped as well."

I nodded, "continue."

"Then there's the matter of King Chu," she said. "Judging from the current information, King Chu is our friend in the plot and respects us very much. And although we are trapped in the illusion, how come

It is said that I have been the prince and princess of this dynasty, and I have some feelings for the mother country towards the Zhou Empire. The Xiongnu is a foreign enemy, and the King of Chu is a compatriot. We should help our compatriots, defeat the Xiongnu, and defend the Zhou Empire from foreign enemies.

Mother country. But if we really do this..."

"Then we will become heroes of the Zhou Empire and guests of the shogunate of King Chu, and we will never be able to leave here again," I said.

"So every incident is against our humanity," she said. "This is the most terrifying thing..."

"Yes," I said with emotion, "if you hadn't reinterpreted the hexagrams, given our personalities, a random incident would have trapped us here..."

"So don't feel sorry for King Chu." She looked at me, "He is fake. Xiaojun, An Yu, Ye Qian, Ke'er, and Gao Ying are the real ones. They are all waiting for you...

…”

"What about you?" I asked.

She avoided my gaze and said, "To help the Huns, we have two ways. Let's study it..."

I took her hand and said, "Lin Xia..."

She stopped talking, turned her head and breathed out softly.

"Answer my question", I stared at her.

She was silent for a while, then raised her head, looked at me, and nodded.

"What do you mean by nodding?" I asked deliberately.

"I'm waiting for you," she said with a blush, "I've been waiting for you..."

I felt as if I had eaten honey. I nodded with a smile and subconsciously held her hand tightly.

She gently pushed my hand away, "Let's get down to business..."
