"Hmm..." After listening to Wang Xuance's report, His Royal Highness the King of Chu nodded thoughtfully: "Hmm... I hope that the tyrant king can understand the good intentions of this son..."

"Your Highness, the tone of your voice..." Wang Xuance didn't know how to evaluate his own King Chu.

"Alas, Xuan Ce, the fact that I am so unruly is just an appearance. In fact..." When His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu said this, he turned his gaze to Fang Yiai who had not left yet.

"In fact, our Kuan Ge... has a heart as sincere and hot as the sun." Fang Yiai turned his head and looked hesitantly at Hou Yun who had already begun to think about how to make the wood carving: "Isn't that right?"

"That's right!" Compared to Fang Yiai's hesitation, Hou Yun seemed much more determined: "Brother Kuan, others misunderstand you because they have never really met you. In my opinion, you are the one who truly combines loyalty and filial piety, and is unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness! Take a look..." Hou Yun said, and took the wood carving from Li Kuan's hand and showed it to Wang Xuance and Fang Yiai: "Brother Kuan never forgets to carve wood carvings for his younger brothers and sisters when he is away from home. This is, this is what an elder brother is like a father!"

"Huh?!" His Highness the King of Chu had never expected that since Li Huairen and Cheng Chumo followed Wei Zheng to Xingzhou, Hou Yun would suddenly appear in his bandit group and steal the show: "I say, Hou Yun... have you forgotten that I am the second child in the family?"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the crown prince, and the crown prince naturally has to be singled out and put aside, so brother Kuan, you are actually the..." Before Hou Yun could finish his words, Li Kuan kicked him on the butt.

"Don't do such abstract things, kid!" His Royal Highness the King of Chu kicked Hou Yun while saying to Fang Yiai, who was already stunned, "Don't learn from him, kid!"

"Oh... um..." Fang Yiai now felt that Hou Yun was a rebellious kid - although the Crown Prince had an average relationship with them, but in front of Brother Kuan, you actually dared to say such words... You really deserve a beating.

Just when His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu was about to give Hou Yun a good beating, suddenly, Jiang Sheng's voice came from not far away: "Your Highness, something bad is going to happen! Is there going to be a fight in Xingzhou?"

"Ah?" His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu was stunned at first, then slightly distracted. He checked the situation through the perspective of the shadow assassin in Xingzhou and found that Jiang Sheng's information seemed inaccurate. However, he couldn't deny it openly, so he could only pretend to be surprised and said, "What do you mean? Li Huairen and Cheng Chumo beat up Duke Wei?"

"It would be great if they were that promising..." Hou Yun stood up from the ground after hearing this and calmly dusted himself off: "Brother Kuan, you can't just..."

"Get lost," His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu glared at Fang Yiai, who was in need of punishment, and then he turned his gaze to Jiang Sheng, who had come close to him, "What? There's going to be a fight in Xingzhou? Did Huairen and Chumo beat up Duke Wei?"

"It's impossible for them to be so successful." Jiang Sheng was stunned at first, and then gave the same reply as Hou Yun.

"Brother Kuan, look!" Hou Yun pointed at Jiang Sheng, his face filled with grief and indignation: "This is what great minds think alike!"

"..." His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu didn't know what to say now - what is a stereotype? This is it!

Why couldn't Li Huairen and Cheng Chumo beat Duke Wei?

Ugh……

"Your Highness, you don't know." Jiang Sheng didn't have time to chat with Hou Yun at this time. He just said to Li Kuan with an anxious face: "I just got the news that one of our old retainers is going to force Xingzhou Governor Wang Dayong to drag Duke Wei down with him before he dies. At this moment... the Xingzhou Governor's Mansion has been set up with a net by Xingzhou Garrison General Zhou Ling, waiting for Duke Wei and his deputy General Zhang Baoxiang to fall into the net!"

"Ah? No..." His Royal Highness Prince Chu was a little confused at the moment: "Where did you get this news?"

"Ah? This... The Dou family has placed more than one insider around the governor of Xingzhou..." Jiang Sheng scratched his head after hearing this, and then continued to explain: "Xingzhou is a big city close to Taihang Mountain. Of course, we have to spend some time to put a few nails in it, otherwise how can we feel at ease?"

"Okay..." His Royal Highness Prince Chu reluctantly accepted this statement: "Then now..."

"Your Highness, how about you give me some manpower and let me lead a team to Xingzhou City?" Jiang Sheng took the initiative to speak before His Highness the King of Chu finished speaking, expressing his willingness to go to Xingzhou to help.

"Wait for you?" His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu waved his hand upon hearing this. "By the time you get there, Duke Wei will probably be dead... But then again, are our retainers so arrogant in Xingzhou? They can force the governor and the imperial censor sent by the court to fight to their death?"

"This Lord Dou is considered the oldest of the Dou family's retainers," Jiang Sheng pursed his lips upon hearing this, then glanced around: "You can listen to what I'm going to say next, but remember not to go out and say anything else after you've heard it."

"Brother Jiang, don't you trust me?" Fang Yiai had originally planned to leave, but who knew that Jiang Sheng actually planned to keep him as an audience member.

"Brother Jiang, if you can trust Yiai, you should trust me," Hou Yun did not intend to leave at this time: "I am much more reliable than Yiai."

"You two can go find a place to fight later," His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu did not even need to wait. He just glanced at Fang Yiai who was about to step forward to fight, and then said to Jiang Sheng: "Go on..."

"Your Highness," Wang Xuance, who was standing by, wanted to persuade the patriarch to be cautious, but when he called out "Your Highness," the three young men turned to him at the same time...

"I know you have made arrangements in advance," Wang Xuance felt that he was becoming more and more shameless. Seeing that things were impossible, he simply gave up the idea of ​​persuading His Royal Highness the King of Chu to dismiss the people and began to say something indifferent: "But I am worried that there are too many ambushes in the Xingzhou Governor's Mansion, and the venue is limited..."

“Xuan Ce, what are you thinking about?” His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu frowned when he heard that. “Those are two hundred black-clad warriors. The Governor’s Mansion… How many people can the Governor’s Mansion hide? Haha…” At this point, His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu suddenly sneered, “Some people always think that I rarely send troops because I am a virtuous person. Little do they know… I don’t send troops because those weaklings are not worthy of my efforts…”

When Wang Xuance heard what His Royal Highness the King of Chu said, he pursed his lips and for some reason his experience on the grassland emerged in his mind.

Well... this lame excuse of mine is really poor.
