Rebel

At this time, the king of Jibei was in the mansion, and when he heard the battle report that the Han army had rushed into Jibei City, he hurried to the backyard of the king's mansion.He came to the place where his son was held, opened the door and entered.

"Father?" Prince Jibei stood up and said in surprise.

King Jibei waved his hand: "Sit down, I have something to tell you as my father."

"Father... what happened?" Prince Jibei looked at his father, and he no longer saw his father's obvious disgust when he berated him, but his face was dark, as if lifeless, he couldn't help asking.

The father and son sat facing each other. King Jibei had gray temples. He raised his eyes and said slowly, "Jibei is a battleground for military strategists. It's a pity that the father is old and useless."

Prince Jibei's son said: "...Why did the father say such a thing?"

The king of Jibei said: "In the past, our family served the imperial court to resist the soldiers, and at the same time formed the land of the south of the Yangtze River to contain the imperial court. In the north, there was Yuyang Shangjun as a barrier. Jibei has always been a happy land. But since the king of Han entered Rongdi, after occupying the two prefectures, Jibei was very different. On the one hand, the King of Han was ambitious and waited for an opportunity to go south; .”

"Father..." Prince Jibei wanted to say something, but was stopped by King Jibei raising his hand.

"I understand. You have been influenced by the wind of the times, and you think that Han Wang Pingrong has meritorious service. Why didn't I think so at first? When Han Wang came to Jibei County for a tour, I knew he was Jian Pu's disciple, so I asked the county magistrate Jian Xing to accompany him. Later, Jian Xing said that we had a very happy conversation. When I learned that he was the king of Han, I was also happy. He went to the north to fight against the army. Bingjia support to make friends with the King of Han. Unfortunately...his ambitions are getting bigger and bigger...In fact, when the King of Han was training horses in the northern enclosure, I should have known that he has the heart to win the world..."

Speaking of this, the King of Jibei sighed: "It should be clear when the matter is here. But being an old man, I am really confused... At that time, Yong Chi had just washed the court with blood to get a big position. I thought that this person's temperament was surly and moody. , and coveted Jinbei, so under the balance of father and two, he asked you to go to Han to ask for help. This move was wrong after all. Han Wang's restructuring in the three cities is changing the way of heaven. Yongchi won Jibei, but our father and son were entrusted to others, but if the King of Han wins Jibei, his ancestral inheritance will be lost... This is how I know that the Han army is more terrifying than Tiger Ben..."

The eldest son of Prince Jibei knelt down and said in tears, "Father..."

King Jibei shook his head: "It's too late, it's too late. The general trend has come. I woke up too late and couldn't help myself. But then again, King Han is still not as cruel and ruthless as Yongchi. Jibei voted After the court, look at what Yongchi did?! He let Jibei be the bait, but he didn't send a single soldier to guard him. He was trying to lure the King of Han to kill my father and son! If I hadn't imprisoned you early, When the Han army enters the city, the first ones to kill are you and me."

As soon as the words fell, suddenly there were noisy voices outside, from far to near, it seemed to be the sound of killing.

The prince of Jibei looked up and looked around, and asked: "...Father, what's going on outside? Please tell me."

King Jibei closed his eyes: "The Han army has attacked."

"what……"

"Go and plead guilty to the King of Han on behalf of my father. All matters here will be handed over to Juncheng Jianxing. You go...go...out of the city, remember to go to Jiangqu, Shanyun Academy, and find your uncle Jianpu, follow He, learn some skills, don't be so stupid as a father anymore."

"Father..." Prince Jibei cried out.

"Still leaving!?" King Jibei shouted sharply.

The prince of Jibei covered his sleeves and left.

The Han army quickly took control of Jibei City. Some soldiers dragged an old man and brought him to Gu Ao.Gu Ao was wearing armor, his face was cold, his armor was stained with Tian Rong's blood, and his dragon-pattern cloak was rolled up by the wind. He sat on the horse and looked at the old man for a moment. After being chased back, Gu Ao slowly said: "Mr. Xiao, since Shanyun Academy, your hair has turned gray a lot after a few years."

Mr. Xiao was walking quickly just now, and his breathing had not yet calmed down at this time, he only panted to Gu Ao: "...Xiao...from now on...willing to serve the King of Han."

Gu Ao smiled: "You are old, Tian Rong is still young, you kill him and pay yourself to this king, do you think it is useful?"

Mr. Xiao lowered his head: "...the old man not only has Tian Rong as a disciple, but there are many others who can rival Tian Rong. Please think twice, King of Han."

Gu Ao shook his head, "When I saw him for the first time, he was only three years old, and he was wearing pink clothes. I still remember it." As he spoke, Gu Ao said to the soldiers who were escorting him, "Drag it, cut it off. .”

"Hanwang!" Mr. Xiao yelled: "Hanwang, don't you want to win the world? Jibei is just the first hurdle on the dangerous journey! There are more waiting for Hanwang... Hanwang's account is full of troops, but 30 troops, but How many cities are there in the world? The King of Han wants to destroy them one by one... The King of Han lost Tian Rong, so don’t you need others? Today, I see King Han’s demeanor, and I am a hundred times better than Yong Chi. I am willing to follow King Han..." Mr. "Or, for the sake of selfishness, the King of Han forgot his ambition to win the world?"

Gu Ao sneered and said: "Old man, do you think that this king can't win the world without you? Come on, drag it down, and kill me immediately!"

"Hahahahaha!"

"Hahahahaha!"

Mr. Xiao was dragged down amidst laughter, at this moment another person hurriedly came to Gu Ao's side under the escort of the guards, and bowed head-on: "I'm on my way to Xiajun Chengjian, see the King of Han."

"Raise your head up." Gu Ao said.

Jian Xing slowly raised his head, looking at Gu Ao cautiously.Gu Ao got off his horse, walked up to Jian Xing, and helped him up himself: "Uncle Jian, long time no see."

"Don't dare, don't dare. It is the luck of my life to look up at the face of the King of Han when I met him once in the past."

Gu Ao said: "I still remember when you took me to visit the county town. You told me about the defense of Jibei, the number of soldiers, and how they were distributed. I received a lot of neglect on the way to the north. Only you entertained me warmly in Jibei, but..." Gu Ao's voice changed, "Unexpectedly, today you and I became enemies."

Jian Xing knelt down again: "The king of Han...Jibei's move was not because the prince wanted it, but because he was forced by Yongchi. Now that the prince knows that he has wronged the King of Han, he has committed suicide and apologized."

Gu Ao was stunned: "...what?"

"It's in the prince's room," said Jian Xing, taking out a letter from his bosom, and handing it to Gu Ao with both hands: "King of Han, this letter was sent by Jian Pu, a brother of the clan last month, saying that if the King of Han enters the city, Give it to the King of Han."

Gu Ao opened the letter, read it silently for a while, sighed, and said: "You come with me and go to see King Jibei at the end."

Jian Xing did not move, bowed his head and said, "Will the King of Han agree to everything in the letter?"

Gu Ao said: "Send your son to Jiangqu to meet Mrs. Jian; pardon the members of Jian's clan—since it's what you wish, this king agrees."

"Thank you, King of Han, thank you, King of Han."

Gu Ao said: "There is nothing to thank, since you were forced by Yong Chi, this king will not pursue it."
