Spring and autumn

Mihu was so tired that he didn't issue another order to chase away guests, but Jing Yang gritted his teeth, stepped forward and sat down in front of him: "Your Majesty, is it true that Your Majesty really wants to give up resisting and just put his title and life together so uselessly?" Hand it over?"

Mihu didn't want to answer, Jing Yang continued: "I follow the king because I value the talent and courage of the king. The first father entrusted this eternal society to the king. Will the king give it up easily?"

"Enough! I know all these great righteousness, but this is the way it is, and I can't turn it around!" Mihu roared in a low voice, his eye sockets were bloodshot like Jing Yang and Mi Fu's, and now he looked desperate. Shocking, "Even if I die, I will still be a virtuous monarch, take up the sword representing the government and fight the rebels to the death! The real lord should die on the battlefield, and I will not embarrass my father."

The blood in his eyes was burning like fire, and he said every word sonorously. Jing Yang believed from the bottom of his heart that he had not followed the wrong person, and said: "Since your majesty has the determination to die, why not give it a go."

Of course he was not willing to just wait to die like this, he already had a plan in mind from Jing Yang's appearance, so he asked, "How can I give it a try?"

"It's just to survive the time difference. Once the Qi army and Qin army arrive, everything will be solved. Although we have no soldiers to adjust, we seem to have a way to delay it." Jing Yang paused here, Standing up, he walked towards the map of Chu State hanging on the wall, "Tomorrow noon, the Yizhou Army will surely cross the Jin River, Your Majesty will call back the small troops scattered around the outskirts of Jinghua tonight, and choose tomorrow morning to hold the funeral for the late Duke. Although the Yizhou army is a rebel army, many of them have also benefited from the favor of the ancestor. The minister thought that Mi Hua is also the younger brother of the ancestor, so he would not attack the coffin of the ancestor. At that time, the king can go to the gate of the city to personally lecture the people in Jinghua, and put Mingjun's attitude of coexistence and death with Jinghua calls on all the people to be soldiers. The vanguard of the Yizhou Army may shake their morale. The Yizhou Army has not encountered resistance on the outskirts of Jinghua, and the King is leading the way with great fanfare as if there is no encirclement. When the public funeral is held, the Yizhou army must be suspicious and dare not enter the city. Although the empty city plan will not lead to retreat, it can also unite the hearts of the people and the army, and slow down the momentum of the Yizhou army."

It's a dangerous plan, but it's the only way to go, Mihu nodded and said: "Since it shows the determination of the office, then I must go in person, but if the Yizhou Army has completely lost their loyalty, accidents will inevitably happen on the way. "

Jing Yang hurriedly went in to persuade him: "You don't need to be like this. How can you go to death in person with a body of ten thousand gold? Just choose someone who is similar to the king as a substitute."

"No, it's already a situation where you die and come back to life. All the soldiers know that you are a substitute. How will you think of me as a monarch in the future?" Mihu remained stubborn on this matter, "Besides, a substitute is fate. To die for me is not a decision that a good king should make."

Hearing what he said, Jing Yang immediately became anxious: "But Jun Shang took the overall situation into consideration..."

"Stop talking, I've made up my mind, and it's useless to talk more." Mihu stopped him and said quietly, "If the sky doesn't kill me, I will have the blessing of not killing me; if the sky wants to kill me, what can I do?"

Jing Yang bowed his head and said nothing, sat in the city waiting to die, and went out of the city to fight to the death, facing the same death result, any nobleman with integrity would choose to keep his name and glory, Mihu affirmed his strategy and did not give up. He insisted on going in person, which shows that the new successor, who has encountered a betrayal, has the self-consciousness of dignity first.

In desperation and exhaustion, Mihu smiled to break the dead breath. He walked over and patted Jing Yang on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "The only one I can't let go of is my sister. You are a talented person. Both the official office and the new dynasty of the rebels will be reused. In any case, Mi Feng is at least innocent in the struggle for power, please take good care of her for me."

Mihu, who has always shown arrogance, seldom asks anyone like this, and his words blocked Jing Yang's determination to show his ambition with death in the end. In order to protect the princess, the emperor did not hesitate to order his loyal ministers to serve the puppet court. Jing Yang It never occurred to him that Mihu, the elder brother, had already achieved this.

"The minister... the minister takes the order..." It is difficult to make such a promise, but Jing Yang has to use this to make Mihu have no worries. After tomorrow, the likely result is a change of dynasty, and then he, as a survivor of the previous dynasty, While trying to protect the princess in every possible way, he condemned himself for living over and over again in his heart.

Mihu smiled relievedly, patted Jing Yang's arm with one hand, and ordered: "You all go down first, Mi Fu will be with me tomorrow, and you will stay in the palace. If I come back, I will rectify the palace servants and my servants. Hold on tight; if I don't come back, then... please send Mi Feng out secretly..."

His last words were almost choked up, and Jing Yang felt that the background of despair in front of him became more and more blurred. A monarch is destined to bear the destiny of the country. He cannot change a monarch or change a piece of land like his ministers to develop as usual. The monarch , is a person who is connected to the foundation of this land. While enjoying power, he also needs to be ready to give his life for it at any time.

Although it is sometimes an unwarranted disaster, the lord is a symbol of the old power and must be defeated.At this point, the only choice is whether to die standing or kneeling.

Jing Yang answered "yes" and went down with Mi Fu. When he pushed the door and went out, he accidentally found Mi Feng standing at the door who had been listening for some time.

Qin State, Gongcheng.

After a good time, Jin Guang fell into restless worry because of the internal turmoil in Chu. The first tip he sent was that the Qi army was galloping to Chu for rescue.Ying Du still had a headache in the front hall, and Zhao Xu sent two letters every day, "Move it with emotion and understand it with reason" to find his important person, and the informant was sent by Ying An, who was arrested together, and who was a guest But he was keen on pestering Ying An Xiangguo to read the military newspaper Jin Guang.

Seeing Ying An come in carrying Jin Guang, Ying Du hurriedly put down his pen with a displeased expression, "Mr. Ping, is this how you treat guests?"

Ying An let go of Jin Guang in disappointment, and said helplessly, "Your guest came to me to spy on the military newspaper if he had nothing to do, maybe he was a spy!"

Ying Du was even more displeased when he made such an evaluation. He walked around to support Jin Guang, raised his eyebrows and said to Ying An: "Xiao Guang was your classmate after all, is it worth talking about him like that?"

"Whatever you think about it, the military newspaper and the ministers have already been brought, so the ministers will leave first." Ying An shrugged and turned away without reasoning. Thinking about it all the way, it's really strange. There will be enough time to arrange everything, so he wrote a letter to urge him, but Ying Du flatly refused, saying that he would stay in Neizhou for two days.Ying Du is a person who does big things, and it's nothing more than a serious business, but it's for a young man who met by chance.It was only later that Ying An found out that the young man was his classmate Jin Guang, and the identity of Young Master Guang was indeed of great help to Qin Guocheng's affairs, so he understood Ying Du's intentional approach.But Jinguang lived here for the past few days, no matter how you look at it, Yingdu's reaction was abnormal. Whether he took Jinguang as a hostage, as a guest, or as something else, Ying An couldn't understand more and more.

It doesn't matter if he doesn't understand, Ying Du is the one who finally makes up his mind anyway, he still believes that his lord can distinguish between public and private, and won't disappoint people for nothing.

As soon as Ying An left, Jin Guang proposed to Ying Du: "I'm sorry that I care about your military newspaper on my own initiative. I don't want to steal military secrets. I just want to know whether Chu State has reported to Qin State as soon as possible. country for help."

"It's okay, I didn't want to have a secret from you at all." Ying Du raised his eyebrows, trying to erase all grievances.

What he said was unexpected to Jinguang, this man always said some strange things, and he was often blocked in a daze.Jin Guang pursed his lips, decided to skip this one and continued: "I saw that Qi State has already dispatched troops, maybe the emperor has an edict, but Qin State has not received it yet!"

Yingdu shook his head slowly and denied, "You understand the relationship between Jiang Chun and Mihu better than I do. The relationship between Qi and Chu is also seen by everyone. When Chu is in trouble, Qi should send troops. Besides, Mi Hua is Jiang Chun's father, and Jiang Chun sent troops to mediate, no matter how you look at it, Qin State is different from Qi State."

Jin Guang was dizzy too, he didn't even think of this, so he could only lower his head slightly for a moment of thought, then frowned when he raised his head: "But..."

"I know what you want to say." Ying Du stretched out a finger to cover his lips, trying to appease his urgency, "If I were Mihu, knowing that the Yizhou army would be unable to resist on the road, at this time They will choose to abandon Jinghua and flee to the east, or cut off Kunzhou, Yuzhou and Needzhou to govern, in order to make a comeback, and at worst flee to Qi, Jiang Chun will not sit idly by..."

"Boqiu won't run away." Jin Guang felt so intuitively, "Based on what I know about him, he is a person who values ​​dignity more than anything else. He has just inherited the state of Chu from his father. Jinghua and him , together since childhood, he will definitely not be a lord who flees. Besides, if he really escapes to Qi, this civil strife will become a war between Qi and Chu. The people of Qi and Chu are connected by blood. No one wants to see this situation.”

For the first time, Yingdu felt that rational consideration would sometimes be defeated by intuition. However, at this moment when they had no clue, they could only choose to wait. In the face of danger, they were not helpless but unable to make a plan. This is not a cruel thing, Jin Guang Knowing that Yingdu has his own considerations as the Qin Guild, expressing understanding but not being able to let go of it is the most cruel.

"Is it really because Mihu took you in that you care so much about Chu?" Ying Du suddenly wanted to ask this question he couldn't understand directly.

Jin Guang shook his head, and when he talked about the past, his eyes were already filled with fascination: "It is a gentle land with the most beautiful spring scenery and warmth in the world. I was once surrounded by such gentle light, but I was unable to grasp it. What. There are the most beautiful memories, the most beautiful youth, and the old people I have to bear."

"An old friend who has to be blamed?" Ying Du couldn't figure it out for a while, and gradually frowned.

"Yes..." The light in Jin Guang's eyes stagnated, and when he looked at Ying Du, those clear eyes were full of sorrow and begging, "Ying Du, I can't lose her!"

he?she?who is she?Ying Du was startled to realize that he didn't understand the past of the person in front of him at all, and without asking a word, Ying Li outside the door sent an urgent report.

"Your Majesty! Jinyi Guan urgently reports!"

Jinyiguan?Ying Du came to his senses, and while going to the case, he ordered: "Bring it!"

Knowing that there would be no delay, Ying Li sent it up, but made a long story short: "Last night, Chu Honglu went to Jinyi Pass to hand over the letter of credence to ask for help. General Xu dared not act presumptuously, so he asked your majesty whether to send troops."

"Send troops! Send troops!" Ying Du responded, swiping a pen and directly approved the letter, stamped it with a big seal, and said cursingly, "Since the matter is so urgent, Xu Fei can make up his own mind, why bother asking me again?" ? Meng Fu, you go in person, go immediately, let him send out troops, all the soldiers in Jinyiguan will be under his control, just make up your own mind, don’t ask me again!”

Ying Li hurriedly took the letter and rushed out of the hall.

Ying Du walked up to Jin Guang who was finally relieved, put his arm around his shoulders, and comforted the still in shock: "It's okay, don't worry, it will be fine..."
