Chapter Nine

The envoys of the State of Qin have arrived in Jianye City.

Chu State also arranged an army to welcome and escort him, otherwise who knows what would happen?

Even after living a good life for several years, the pain of the past cannot be easily forgotten. Dong Zhuo, standing in that position, could have become a hero who turned the tide, but he chose the path of satisfying his selfish desires and causing trouble for the world.

So that he finally buried the entire Han Dynasty with his own hands.

"Look, it's Dong Gou's people here."

"What are they here for?"

"I heard that they want to form an alliance with the king and marry Princess Xiangxiang. It seems that the person in the tightly covered carriage is the prince of Qin who has come to propose marriage."

"Bah, you shameless bitch, you still want to marry the princess?"

A cold eyebrow is pointed at by thousands of people.

Perhaps the people of the Qin State dared to be angry but dared not speak out, but the people of the Chu State did not have so many scruples. Under the escort of soldiers who opened the way, the people retreated to both sides of the road, pointing and swearing in low voices.

The people of Qin felt uncomfortable. If they were not escorted by Chu soldiers, they suspected that eggs, vegetable leaves and other things would have been thrown at them. Even now, they were like prisoners being escorted to the execution ground by officers and soldiers.

Whoosh!

The sharp sound of breaking wind aroused everyone's nerves, and a powerful crossbow was fired at the carriage from the attic on the roadside.

As if receiving some kind of instruction, dozens of powerful crossbows fired at the carriage from several directions in an instant. A dozen powerful crossbow arrows penetrated the carriage and dug holes one after another in it.

"Protect the young master!"

"Killed! Run!"

The people who had been watching suddenly panicked and fled here desperately.

The guards woke up from a dream and were caught off guard. The soldiers holding large shields stepped forward to surround the carriage. The crossbowmen began to sporadically respond to the attacks from upstairs. Swordsmen and spearmen rushed into the hidden assassins.

building.

However, not only was an ambush set up upstairs, there were also many thieves dressed in knight attires downstairs to greet the officers and soldiers.

"Brothers, kill, kill the bastard Dong Dong!"

A chaotic battle began.

"He is indeed dead."

In an inn far away from the battlefield, Zhou Yu pressed his hands on the window sill and stared at the fighting in the distance, lost in thought.

"Do you also think that the owner of Onizhong is Guo Jia, the military advisor of Wei State who died a year ago?"

An old man with mottled white hair stood behind Zhou Yu, looking at the battle in the distance with a faint smile on his face.

This old man's name is Ren Wuxin. He was once the steward, deputy, and intelligence chief of the Han Situ Wang Yun. Now he is the steward of Gan Ning and Qingyu's house, and also serves as the second-in-command of the Chu State's intelligence organization. In the past few years

The network developed rapidly and even extended its eyes and ears to the hinterland of Qin and Wei. Ren Lao had a great contribution to this.

"The current person in charge of Onizuka cannot be the person in charge back then."

After hearing what Mr. Ren said, Zhou Yu nodded, looking a little lonely.

He turned around and asked in a low voice: "Mr. Ren, have our people made arrangements?"

Ren Wuxin gently tied his beard, with a glimmer of light in his eyes.

"Don't worry, sir. Ambushes have been set up everywhere, just waiting for the prey to jump into the net. This time, we will definitely uproot Onizuka's influence in the Chu Kingdom!"

Zhou Yu couldn't help but have an intoxicating smile on his face, and everyone in the room was also excited. This was their victory.

"That's good. It's time for me to go outside the city to pick up Mr. Qin in person, otherwise it will appear that our Chu country has lost etiquette."

"Mr. Ren, let the young people take care of the rest. You should also pay more attention to your health. Otherwise, Mrs. Wang will chop me with a sword, and I won't be able to bear it."

I'm afraid the last sentence was really more than a joke, and everyone couldn't help but smile.

A guard beside him quickly put a cloak on Zhou Yu who was about to go out. Mr. Ren nodded in agreement, dumbfounded.

"My lord is worried, and the old man knows it."

······

Drunken Dream Tower.

Miss Xing'er showed her superb piano skills, and Cai Mao and Guiying were intoxicated by the sound of the piano and sat and drank together.

Cai Mao drank the wine in his hand and sighed.

"Mr. Ghost, don't you understand yet? You, like me, have been treated as an outcast."

As soon as he said this, the face under the ghost's face instantly turned livid, and he thought of many things.

The ghost's silence made Cai Mao shake his head. He poured himself a glass of wine and continued.

"Mr. Cheng Yu wants to buy time for Wei to capture Xuzhou. This does not require killing the King of Chu in the heavily guarded palace. He only needs to kill the crown prince Dong Shang of Qin! The prince was killed. Such a deep hatred, Qin

How can the country give up? Dong Zhuo will definitely raise troops to attack Chu. If these two behemoths fight, there will be no hindrance to Wei's attack on Xu Han."

"But, can such a big assassination plan really be hidden from Zhou Yu's eyes and ears? Mr. Cheng Yu naturally needs another assassination plan to cover up his true intention. That's why he asked you to find me and plan a new plot to assassinate the King of Chu.

"

Cai Hao looked at the ghost and kept sneering.

"Assassination of the King of Chu, promotion of officials and nobility are just flowers in the mirror, moon in the water, I am just a pawn destined to be discarded whether Cheng Yu's plan succeeds or fails. And you are also the bait thrown by Cheng Yu to attract Zhou Yu's attention.

Another outcast."

The music suddenly stopped, and Xing'er couldn't help but look at the ghost figure.

The ghost narrowed his eyes, straightened up and said bitterly.

"I was kept in the dark. I didn't expect Mr. Cai to know such detailed information. It seems that Mr. Cai had informed Zhou Yu early in the morning. I don't understand that the Cai family was one of the accomplices who killed Sun Jian. As long as Sun Ce is here

The Cai family will never be able to succeed once they are in power, so why is the head of the Cai family so 'loyal' to Sun Ce?"

Cai Mao's face turned red. These were naturally not what he thought of. He originally thought that Onizuka's plan to assassinate the King of Chu could not be realized, so he went to tell Zhou Yu to take credit. This is why he learned about Cheng Yu's plan from Zhou Yu.

Cai Mao's expression quickly recovered, and he smiled with emotion.

"Mr. Ghost Shadow, only smart people can live the longest in this world."

"Assassinate the King of Chu? Oh, it's not as good as it was back then. We aristocratic families are living a comfortable life now, why do we rebel? Those Jiangdong aristocratic families were stupid in the past, do you think all aristocratic families should be as stupid as them? Just for that

The dignity of a scholar who does not pay taxes is just for the prestige of leaving a crowd of servants to clear the way. Why bother? Are these things worth a life? "

"As long as our lives are still alive, we will naturally enjoy endless glory and wealth. Do you think my men can agree to follow you in rebellion?"

"Cheng Yu is in Wei State and doesn't know the situation of the Chu family. Didn't you object to him?"

"Oh, that's right. He won't listen to you, otherwise he wouldn't use you as bait."

It seems there is nothing to talk about.

Myolie pulled out her sword with an angry look on her face, while Guiying sighed and slowly pulled out her sword.

Cai Mao has been on the battlefield for a long time, and his skills are naturally not weak, but he didn't even move. The entourage behind him threw the wine glass to the ground, and more than a dozen guards rushed upstairs in an instant.

Cai Hao looked at the ghost and laughed.

"These are all good soldiers in the military."
