Lord of Rebirth

Chapter 143

Just when Shen Xi was having a headache, Wei Liu said again: "Now Shangluo City has less than 1 soldiers, and King Hongnong doesn't have many soldiers."

Hearing this, no one breathed a sigh of relief except Xiao Feng'er.So what if the number of troops is small, and there are some people who can make a difference?

It's not good news, but at least it can be more comfortable psychologically.

Shen Xi didn't care so much, he leaned on Sun Moyao and sighed, and no matter how much news there was, Wei Liu really didn't find out anything.

"In short, we can't procrastinate any longer now. If we can, use tougher methods and arrest King Hongnong." Shen Xi said.

Xiao Feng'er knew that she didn't understand and couldn't think of any good ideas, so she got up and left.She couldn't leave the main tent, so the prince set up a side tent beside the main tent. There were two gates, and the curtain leading directly to the outside was always fastened.She went to bed as soon as she entered the side account, and she didn't care about that much!

And this Sun Moyao was also considering Shen Xi's proposal just now. The so-called tough means just means that he can't deal with King Hongnong with a gentleman's means.It is a matter of confrontation with force, and it is also a matter of using some unreasonable means.

This time Wei Liu was also on Shen Xi's side, and said to Sun Moyao, "Yes, my lord, a day's delay is a daily burden for us, and as long as Hongnong Wang and the others stay behind closed doors, they don't even make any reply. Even if we are wrong, it will appear that we are making trouble for no reason."

"What's next?"

"It's just the one in the Art of War."

Sun Moyao looked back at Shen Xi, "I'm just asking, I'll leave it to you."

Shen Xi laughed, and looked up at Wei Liu, "I'm afraid I can only trouble you, Brother Wei." Presumably he was still hurt.

Who knows that Wei Liu didn't bother to say at all, "Of course I can only rely on me. You are both injured and sick, Wang Ye and Brother Shen."

But these two injured patients took it for granted that they became the hands-off shopkeepers and handed them over to Wei Liu.

Sun Moyao came back and hugged Shen Xi, and asked him: "Wei Liu didn't say what he planned to do just now...you won't use my title of lord to do anything?"

Shen Xi covered his mouth and smiled, "Are you afraid, my lord?"

"If it were you, I wouldn't be afraid, but you and Wei Liu..." Sun Moyao hugged him even tighter, "Have you ever seen me afraid?"

Shen Xi didn't dare to laugh too much, but he felt a little beautiful in his heart.

"Oh, you..." Shen Xi looked back at him, "Does your butt hurt?"

Sun Moyao raised his eyebrows, "Why does it hurt? If it's not that you can't move...or I really want to prove it to you."

"I'm not serious!" Shen Xi ignored him, but there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.

As for the matter between King Hongnong and King Fufeng, outsiders don't know the truth and can only rely on hearsay.

Someone first said that King Hongnong's plan to usurp the throne was bumped into by King Fufeng who had gone to meet him before, so he wanted to kill him.

Some people also said that it was King Fufeng who wanted to plot against Hongnong County, so he acted first and sent assassins to assassinate King Hongnong, but he missed!

Then someone said that a person from the Xishu Kingdom under King Hongnong was advising him. How could such an outsider dictate to them the Nanshun Kingdom?

Then someone said that it was King Fufeng who couldn't beat King Hongnong himself, so he found such a ridiculous reason to throw dirty water.

As a result, some people said that no one can beat anyone!What's the point of a war of words, if you have the ability to pull a team out to fight!

Ever since, King Fufeng really invited someone to make an appointment for a fight, and asked King Hongnong if he dared to fight?You don't need many people, each pulls 200 people out, and whoever wins the battle will listen to whoever wins.

How childish it sounds.

Sun Moyao stroked his chin and said, "Is this the method of aggressiveness?"

Wei Liu clasped his hands and said, "Exactly, unless you admit defeat yourself, my lord, but according to the officials, you won't be able to beat Hongnong Wang, my lord, right?"

Sun Moyao really wanted to say that he wasn't bragging, he was the only one among all princes who could lead troops to fight, and even the emperor didn't have as much experience as him, but since Shen Xi and Xiao Feng'er were both there, he didn't say the truth, so as not to worry about it in the future. They joked about it in front of themselves.

"Hmm..." Sun Moyao shook his head, "Will I lose?"

Shen Xi supported his waist and shook his head, "My lord won't."

Sun Moyao nodded to Wei Liu as if he had already secured his victory, "Then what does King Hongnong mean?"

Just as Wei Liu was about to speak, a soldier outside said that King Hongnong had sent an invitation to fight, saying that Cao Cao had arrived, and it was really on time.

Sun Moyao didn't even read the letter of invitation to fight, so he threw it to Shen Xi.Shen Xi opened it and took a closer look. As the outside world said, the two sides were fighting on a plain about seven miles west of Shangluo City.There are 200 people each, and the two princes must attend.

There is no problem in terms of numbers, but in terms of geography... Shen Xi thought about it, their current military camp is in the east of Shangluo City, and they only drag 200 people there. Naturally, it is impossible to move the entire military camp, and the battle location is in the west of the city. For them, there is a Shangluo city in the middle, which is always not a good deal, and they are at a disadvantage.

And if something happens, you have to go around the entire Shangluo City to get to the place where they are about to fight.

"This place...is not good for us." Wei Liu actually expressed Shen Xi's concerns.

Shen Xi glanced at him and nodded honestly.

Sun Moyao didn't take it seriously, but he didn't explain. Instead, he said to Wei Liu, "You should lead a team to make preparations, just in case."

"I understand." Wei Liu cupped his hands.

Afterwards, Shen Xi told Wei Liu in private, "My lord agreed to fight at that place, but didn't ask King Hongnong to change the location that is beneficial to us. It's not because my lord is conceited."

Wei Liu smiled, "Oh? That's it?"

"There is only one plain around Shangluo City, and there is no farmland or official roads around." Shen Xi folded his hands and glanced at Wei Liu, "The prince doesn't want to affect the lives of the people."

"It's a bit... exaggerated." Wei Liu didn't believe it, "It's just that it's really related to your own life and death, and you can't pay too much attention to the thoughts of the people."

"But as long as you can think about it, you must think about it." Shen Xi said so, and he pointed in the direction of the prince, "The prince is such a person."

At this time, the prince was standing at the side of the barracks and dispatching the team with several lieutenants.

And Shen Xi and Wei Liu were standing not far away basking in the sun, just in time to see the prince's back.

It was winter, and it was gloomy for several days, just like what happened to them, it weighed on their hearts and made everyone feel a little depressed.

Today, somehow, the sky just cleared up. Although the sun seemed to be shrouded in a layer of mist, the sun still hit the ground directly, making people feel a little lazy.

Shen Xi cupped his hands towards Wei Liu again, "The life and death of Prince Jieshi depends on you, Brother Wei."

Wei Liu laughed, "If you say that, don't you put all the pressure on me? Are you afraid that I won't be able to bear it?"

"You won't." Shen Xi shook his head and touched his waist again, as if to say, if you were not injured, how could you be given this chance?He himself led his troops to support the prince.

But Wei Liu also said, "Brother Shen, don't think so much. Since I came to work for the prince, I naturally wouldn't ignore his safety. Even if you are not injured, the prince probably won't let you go, right?"

Shen Xi smiled, because he knew the reason better than anyone else, and said: "Brother, the prince trusts you very much."

The topic changed so quickly that Wei Liu couldn't help being taken aback, he turned his head to look at Shen Xi, Shen Xi's eyes were squinted under the sun, but there seemed to be something golden on his face, Wei Liu was momentarily confused Eyes, and if you look carefully, you can't find the golden things just now.

Wei Liu lowered his head and smiled, "I'm just doing my best, and it's my blessing to gain the trust of the prince."

"Hmm... so no matter how you write the letter to the emperor in the memorial, we don't care, as long as you don't write nonsense." Shen Xi said suddenly.

Wei Liu was a little dazed, he turned his head to look at Shen Xi again, and it was Shen Xi who also turned his head to look at him, the eyes of the two met, Shen Xi's expression was calm, and he did not show that he had exposed other people's secrets at all. That elation.

"As expected..." Wei Liu smiled wryly, but he was also speechless, "Since he was exposed, why did the prince ask me to be his backup?"

Shen Xi clasped his hands, "Because the prince trusts you."

Wei Liu shook his head, "You know what I've been doing all this time, why do you still trust me?"

"For the prince, you just reported to the emperor about his every move, and you didn't do anything to hurt him. Why doesn't he believe you?" Shen Xi asked back.

That's true, and it's true, but Wei Liu was a little flustered. These words were originally an excuse he planned to explain to the prince after being exposed - you see, I didn't do anything harmful to you, so please ask the prince Please spare your life - but they didn't expect that they knew about it a long time ago, but today, they were exposed by Shen Xi so unintentionally.

Wei Liu was a little at a loss.

"Brother Shen..." Wei Liu smiled wryly, "Why did you suddenly pick this moment to tell me that you are not afraid that I will really use this to do something that hurts the prince?"

Shen Xi looked at him, with a look of surprise on his face, "You... can beat the lord?"

Wei Liu was taken aback for a moment, then smiled wryly, using such an excuse, "How is this possible?"

"Yes." Shen Xi said approvingly, with a very flat expression, "So I don't think the prince will worry about such things."

"Then..." Wei Liu didn't understand, "Brother Shen, why are you suddenly telling me this now? It's okay to expose it... really?"

"Because the prince doesn't care, he trusts you, so he can leave everything to you." Shen Xi suddenly stood up straight, and his tone suddenly changed, "But I'm not the prince."
