"My father is Minister of the Ministry of War, how dare you kill me." Weng Hexuan said.

Gu Zhai said: "Weng Hexuan, do you think that these soldiers outside have followed me for so many years just because of this soldier talisman in your hand? You can stand out with this soldier talisman and try it out, as long as I am still in the barracks, look Are they listening to the soldier talisman in your hand or my order."

"If you haven't really led the army, you won't understand that it is not the talisman that can mobilize thousands of troops, but the hearts of the people. If I do something that I shouldn't do, I can't lead them. Bring something."

Weng Hexuan reluctantly handed over the soldier talisman in his hand, so it doesn't matter if you have a moment of prestige, you will become a prisoner sooner or later.

Weng Hexuan changed his tone and stopped speaking so fiercely. He said: "Even if I can't command the Sichuan army, but His Majesty's imperial decree is true, the Western Regions and the Ling Kingdom are suspected of colluding, and the sage's orders are passed on. If any clues are found, they can be suppressed on the spot."

"The humble minister leads the decree."

"Report—"

Soldiers came to report from outside the camp.

Gu Zhai said: "Come in."

"General, the gate of Panning City is closed, as if martial law has been imposed."

"what?"

Could it be that Lingdi really rebelled, or was someone acting as a hindrance, deliberately causing trouble while Chu Chu was away?Gu Zhai thought to himself.

"We seem to see a person on the tower..." The soldier faltered, as if he had seen a ghost.

Gu Zhai was already upset, and said angrily, "I train you all the time? What did you see, tell me!"

"We saw... we saw General Weng Shu, General, it was indeed General Weng Shu, the man on the top of the wall was dressed in red and wore a bronze ghost mask!"

"You are here, I will not give orders, and I will not allow anyone to act rashly. I will go and meet with that person and I will know the truth." Gu Zhai said.

Weng Hexuan on the side joked: "General God of War, don't go out to meet an 'old friend' like Vice General Xie, and he will disappear without a trace."

Gu Zhai ignored Weng Hexuan, got on his horse and left the camp directly. What he cares most now is who that person is.

Dressed in red and silver armor, with black hair and high tufts, Chu Chu is standing on the top of the wall at this moment, just like in his previous life.

He and Wutu traveled all the way to Jinque City, and got Yuchuan's report, knowing that something must have happened. The news of their alliance with the Western Regions leaked out early for some reason, and even the Sichuan Army's troops had already arrived at the border of Chuanling.

Chu Chu took Chai Lian directly from Taibai Mountain to lead the army, and rushed to Panning desperately. Fortunately, it was not too late, the Sichuan army had not yet entered the city, but Song Li rushed to Panning early, but there was no sign of him, Chu Chu Instinctively, something happened.

From a distance, he saw the place where the Sichuan army camped. Someone was coming towards Panning City single-handedly. He had sharp eyes, and he knew it was Gu Zhai just by looking at the person's figure and appearance. He sighed in his heart: The one who should come is coming.

Feeling a little pain in his heart, Wutu also went up to the top of the wall. Seeing Chu Chu covering his chest, he glanced out again, and he understood, "Is the general sick again?"

Chu Chu shook his head, "It's dangerous on this tower. You are the king of the Western Regions and shoulder heavy responsibilities. There is no need to go up to the top of the city with me. There must be a battle outside the city with Chen Bing of the Sichuan Army. You should take your men back as soon as possible." Withdraw to the territory of the Western Regions."

Wu Tu laughed and said, "We have already formed an alliance with you in the Western Regions. The Emperor of Sichuan must have received some news. There is no reason to abandon our allies. If they destroy you today, the Sichuan Army will turn to attack our Western Regions tomorrow." Gate, I am helping myself by staying here to help you, I have already asked the soldiers who escorted me to change into your clothes, you can call them."

"Kindness without saying thanks."

"Just a little effort."

"The god of war outside the city has been looking at you and me for a long time, how do you plan to deal with it?" Wutu asked with his head tilted.

Chu Chu said: "The one who should come can't hide, and I don't want to hide it from him anymore."

Wutu expressed his understanding and got out of the way.

Chu Chu rode out of the city alone, and Chai Lian wanted to follow, but he raised his hand to stop him.

The two reunited on the battlefield in the past, as if the event that happened so long ago in the previous life was yesterday.

Gu Zhai already had the answer in his heart, and he still asked out his thoughts: "Who the hell are you, Tao Wengshu or Chu Chu?"

Chu Chu took off his mask, "It's Tao Wengshu and Chu Chu, don't come here without any problems, General Gu Zhanshen."

Gu Zhai looked at that familiar face, it was the face of someone who was by his side day and night, but the heroic spirit in his bones that had never been restrained could not be concealed back then, it was obviously so incompatible but blended well with the same person.

"I believe you."

"Jingxi...Tao Wengshu, are you really going to lead Ling Kingdom to rebel?" Gu Zhai tried his best to ask in a kind tone.

"I just want to protect my homeland. Most of your soldiers lost in the Battle of Yuele. It is not beneficial to start a war with us at this time." Chu Chu said.

"You know that I don't want to fight with you, why do you force me, no matter you are Tao Wengshu or Chu Jingxi."

"Gu Changning, figure it out. You are the one who forced me. Is it wrong for me to restore the country? You Sichuan country invaded our land and bullied my Ling country to Sri Lanka. Who is the sinner?"

"The general trend of the world, the long-term division must be united, and the long-term union must be divided [1]. This has been the principle since ancient times, and it cannot be stopped by our power. Since the Ling Kingdom has surrendered, why can't you let go of your obsession." Gu Zhai said.

Chu Chu said: "I once promised that I will protect the peace of the Ling Kingdom. What I want is not only the happiness of the people."

Gu Zhai said in his heart, no worries in the mountains and rivers, peace in the home and country, of course I know what you want.

Chu Chudao: "I once asked a person: 'Can a country be turned around by one person's strength?', I don't believe in fate, I only believe in myself, even if I can't do it in the end, I have tried my best, and I will survive Huan, why bother to die [2]."

"But I don't want you to die, I want you to live." Gu Zhai said.

"It's not certain who will die, General Gu Zhanshen should take care of himself."

Watching the man turn the horse's head, Gu Zhai couldn't help asking: "Tao Wengshu, is winning or losing really that important?"

Chu Chule stopped and replied: "I should ask you this. How important is winning or losing? How many people were killed and injured in the battle of Chuanling and Yuele. I didn't want to repeat the same mistakes. You know I don't want wars everywhere."

"People don't offend me, I don't offend others, I know you can't make the decision, you can tell my uncle the emperor...to the emperor of Sichuan."

"There is no need to report, I promise to withdraw troops." I will try my best to protect you for what you want.

"The Lord General rebelled against the enemy, and his crime is unforgivable. He even violated the sacred order and said such rebellious words as 'withdraw troops'!"

At some point, the Sichuan army had already moved forward and approached the two of them.

Both Gu Zhai and Chu Chu turned their heads and found that it was Weng Hexuan.

"Weng Hexuan, what did you do?" Gu Zhai roared.

Above the tower, Wutu had already noticed something was wrong, and was about to order the archers who had ambushed to shoot, but Chai Lian stopped him, "The general is also below, so don't accidentally injure the general. If I lead troops out of the city, I may not be invincible."

The gate of the city opened suddenly, and Chai Lian had already led the Ling army out. Seeing this, Weng Hexuan also ordered the Sichuan army and the Ling army to fight.

Chuanling's two armies fought together, Chu Chu and Gu Zhai stayed very close, and were always protected by Gu Zhai to avoid injury.

"You can't control your people?" Chu Chu said.

"Weng Hexuan didn't know what he did." Gu Zhai replied.

"There are people who stand in the way and cannot get what they want. You restrain your people, and I will tell mine to stop. If you really want to fight, you should just start the war."

"good."

The two had led troops for many years, Chai Lian only wanted to protect Chu Chu first, while the soldiers on Gu Zhai's side were reluctant to hurt their own general, so the two of them worked side by side to forcefully control the situation.

Seeing this, Weng Hexuan was dissatisfied, and said bluntly, "Bring me up."

Several men in black escorted the two of them up, and the ones tied up with ropes turned out to be the Princess and his wife!

"Young Lord Chu, oh, no, now it's time to call you General Weng Shu, let's see who these two are." Weng Hexuan said.

"Weng Hexuan, are you crazy, to kidnap the Princess, is this also His Majesty's will?" Gu Zhai said angrily.

"The Emperor of Sichuan? Heh, he is afraid that he will be in trouble, so don't worry about him." Weng Hexuan said.

Chu Chu looked at the bound person, "Weng Hexuan, what is your purpose?"

"My son, don't believe him, he is a traitor to our Sichuan country!" the grand scholar shouted with all his strength.

"Shut up, old man!" Weng Hexuan put the blade on Chu Mu's neck, and with a pull of the white-glowing sharp blade, Chu Mu had already fallen down, unable to speak, only struggling a little before swallowing his breath .

"Father!"

Chu Chu wanted to rush over, but was stopped by Gu Zhai.

Then Weng Hexuan moved the knife that was stained with Chu Mu's blood to Chu Yu's neck.

Chu Chu said anxiously: "If you dare to touch my mother, I will kill you!"

"Having been someone's son for so long, General Weng Shu doesn't miss the old feelings at all~" Weng Hexuan said.

Chu Xi's lips were dark and purple, and her whole body couldn't help trembling, but as the princess of a country, she still maintained her royal arrogance.

She said: "Chu'er, since you didn't get close to us, mother knew that you were not my son, and you never called my mother... Forget it, my son is a glutton, unlike you always So well-behaved and sensible, every time I see you, I always think of that incompetent son. It would be great if he was as outstanding as you. I don’t know why he sent you to us, but in the end, you and I have a good relationship Fate, you have to believe that your father and I treat you as our own son. Mother knows that you must not be an ordinary person, and mother has nothing to ask for. Mother is the Princess of Chuan Kingdom, and she should take on the responsibility of protecting Chuan Kingdom. If it is possible, mother hopes that you can look at mother's face and save Dachuan for me, no matter where you are from, your father and I will not be your burden."

After finishing speaking, the princess twisted her neck, and the blade cut her throat, so fast that even Weng Hexuan had no time to withdraw the blade.

"Mother!" Chu Chu yelled heart-piercingly, spat out a mouthful of blood, and was supported by Gu Zhai so that she did not fall to her knees.

The princess desperately crawled towards her husband, her voice was intermittent and indistinct due to the rupture of the wound, she only heard her say: "I'm sorry... these years... I have never been enough... Xianshu is gentle... You must... Blame me, I...can't do well...your...ideal wife...you...will marry me in the next life...I will definitely change..."

The author has something to say: [1] From "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

Chu Chu has always been a kind-hearted person. He never wanted to get too close to the princess and his wife because he was afraid that one day they would tear up the relationship, but he still couldn't bear it.
