Chapter 4 Chapter 4 Fan Zeng, as a person who is more than a year old,...

Fan Zeng, as a person who is more than a year old, usually has to advise Xiang Yu, who most of the time refuses to listen, and guard against Xiang Bo, who seems to be harboring a ghost, and intrigue with him, and also wants to not anger Xiang Yu too much. The next detour to achieve the goal... After a day, I feel exhausted.

This morning, he watched helplessly as Xiang Bo relied on a piece of bullshit to appease Xiang Yu, and he canceled the resolution of attacking and destroying Han, and he almost vomited a mouthful of blood on the spot.

However, the boat is done, his words are destined to be no more important than Xiang Bo, the patriarch of the Xiang clan and a blood relative of Xiang Yu, and he cannot persuade the deceived Xiang Yu to change his mind.

What's more, to go back on his word, for the first army coach, this is also a very bad thing.

After thinking about it, the only option was to make another plan, and to use Xiang Zhuang and others who were loyal to Xiang Yu and more useful in comparison, to try to eradicate Liu Bang at the farce-like Hongmen Banquet that followed.

Fan Zeng knew in his heart that for this matter to happen, he had to hide from Xiang Bo; and if he wanted to hide from Xiang Bo, he had to hide from Xiang Yu first. Unless absolutely necessary, a word must not be revealed.

Of course, it was a big taboo for the courtier to deceive the master and act on his own, but in the face of this great opportunity, he couldn't care so much.

So Fan Zeng, after saving a stomach full of anger, didn't even bother to use lunch, so he hurriedly went to find Xiangzhuang and others, and after some painstaking persuasion, he finally reached a secret agreement.

Guessing that as soon as he returned to the account, he was summoned by Xiang Yu.

The timing was so coincidental that Fan Zeng was startled, wondering if Xiang Yu had secretly sent someone to spy on him.

However, Fan Zeng quickly reacted: he considered himself to be sincere and loyal, and even if he did some small hands and feet that violated Xiang Yu's password in private, he was still thinking of the overall situation of the Chu army.

He was really stalked, and he shouldn't be scared, but it was still hard for him to believe that Xiang Yu, who was naturally proud and most disdainful of his hand, would suddenly change his temper.

Fan Zeng thought so, and came to the main tent in a frank manner.

As soon as he entered, he was keenly aware that Xiang Yu's complexion, for some reason, was more gloomy than when he was provoked by Liu Bang and was about to launch an army in anger.

"General."

Fan Zeng was about to salute, but Xiang Yu raised his hand to stop him. He tried his best to use a gentle tone, and said politely, "Father, please take a seat."

- It's really just a coincidence.

Fan Zeng quickly made a judgment.

If Xiang Yu was dissatisfied with his small actions, he would definitely choose to attack on the spot instead of being so polite.

He can still maintain his demeanor, which shows that the source of his anger is not in himself, but in others.

He secretly guessed the reason for summoning him, but he didn't show it at all, and sat down according to the words.

It was at this moment that the corner of his eye inadvertently swept the black and red objects on the small case, and when he looked closely, he was immediately horrified, stood up on the spot, and said in horror, "This is— "

How could there be a grim-faced human head that was covered with dried up black blood!

Xiang Yu was quiet and seemed to be in deep thought. After Fan Zeng quickly regained his senses and sat down again, he briefly told the origin of the head and the small gold medal.

Fan Zeng was also stunned.

While he was still digesting this information, Xiang Yu expressionlessly threw out the blood robe he had just sent someone to turn over and received today, and said lightly, "What do you think of Yafu?"

He was in an extremely bad mood at this time. Although he tried his best to restrain himself, he still showed a bit of anger in his simple actions.

Fan Zeng was accustomed to Xiang Yu's anger and lack of laughter, and he knew that the anger of the other party was not directed at him at this time, so his whole mind at the moment was on the head of the terrifying face, And the little gold medal on the side.

——The specific origin of this bloody suit still needs to start from the day of the Qin Palace incident.

After Liu Bang entered the customs, although he was very envious of those beautiful former Qin palace maids and countless treasures in the library, he still listened to the analysis of the overall situation by the advisers, and decided for long-term ambitions. He tried his best to hold back, except for evacuating the treasures, he basically made a noble gesture that Qiu did not commit any crimes and did not disturb the people.

In order to vent his excess energy, in addition to working hard when screening former Qin officials, he also held military meetings all day, thinking about how to deal with the angry Xiang Yu.

How did he expect that when he was still hesitating about whether to execute the former Qin Wangziying, someone would jump in and make this decision on his behalf?

When Liu Bang learned from the frightened guards that Ying Ziying in the claustrophobic palace was assassinated and the heads were brutally cut off, he shuddered.

When he hurriedly felt in front of the hall where Zi Ying died, and looked at the two men outside the door with a calm expression, apparently they were the elite soldiers of the Han army who had their necks smashed to death before they could react. Chills.

Although I don't know what kind of enemy a former Qin king who is basically useless has provoked, he ended up being assassinated and cut off in the palace...

Just looking at the neat, ruthless and ruthless means made him shudder.

Such a well-planned killer who dared to sneak into the palace guarded by the heavy army has almost disappeared without a trace.

Intellectually knowing that there are many guards around him, even if Jing Ke is alive, it is difficult to take advantage of it, but Liu Bang still broke into a cold sweat.

Compared to Liu Bang, who was secretly afraid, Zhang Liang, who arrived a step later, quickly calmed down in front of the headless corpse that had completely lost its temperature after being surprised at first.

Unlike the others who thought it was Ying Ziying just by looking at the clothes on this headless body, he was obviously much more cautious.

In order to prevent someone with a heart from using other corpses of similar body shape to play a drama of Li Dai peach stiff, he first sent the people from the old Qin palace one by one, and asked about the physical characteristics of the children, and then asked them to check them one by one.

After some tossing, I quickly got a clear answer: it is indeed Ying Ziying.

Zhang Liang couldn't help frowning.

He knew very well that it was pointless to waste his troops to track down the assassin who had disappeared. The focus now is to strengthen the guards around Liu Bang, and then how to deal with the aftermath.

After all, everyone knows that Xiang Yu, who showed great power in the Battle of Julu, was stopped outside Hangu Pass, and it was none other than Liu Bang's 100,000 Han army guarding the pass.

If the world is known, the seemingly tight Han army is actually incompetent in defense, so that the former Qin Ziying was assassinated by an assassin under the eyes of Liu Bang... Even if it is not disgraced, it is not honorable in any way.

Since the assassin could not be found, Suo Xing used Liu Bang to comply with the wishes of the princes and kings, and personally killed the last bloodline symbolizing the former Qin Dynasty, and recognized the matter to the outside world.

Liu Bang felt apprehensive: "Do you really want to admit it?"

He originally thought of using Ziying as a puppet prime minister to show the kindness of the Han army, and it would also make it easier for him to better absorb the soldiers of the former Qin Dynasty.

As a result, when he woke up, the good plan had been soaked in soup, and he had to hold his nose to claim the execution of Ziying, which really made him difficult to reconcile.

Seeing Liu Bang's hesitation, Zhang Liang couldn't help but persuade him a few more words: "It has always been unacceptable for Ziying to be the prime minister of the country. It must be known that after Qin destroyed the six kingdoms and the blood of all countries surrendered, they were all persecuted. King Huai of Chu, who is most sympathetic to the people, is the most sympathetic. How can he save his life? The ancestors are heavily indebted to blood. If Ziying wants to live and does not repay with death, how will the general quell the anger of the people of all countries? Besides, the palace of Qin is huge. , It is inappropriate, and the Li Palace, which imitates the palace of the Six Kingdoms, is used to imprison the people of the Palace of the Six Kingdoms. It is such a shame and shame that the princes will easily forgive him?

"What the ovary said is very true." Liu Bang knew that his ideas were quite bad, and he couldn't help being a little embarrassed.

Zhang Liang frowned, disapprovingly said, "Xiang Yu's army is huge, and with the power of a general, he is by no means an opponent of the Chu army. If you anger him rashly, it may lead to disaster."

Not to mention that Xiang Yu had 400,000 Chu troops with high morale at this time, and Liu Bang had only 100,000. The main general's ability to strategize and charge into battle was no match.

Liu Bang nodded, but secretly pouted, disapproving of this.

It was not until three days later that Xiang Bo visited Zhang Liang overnight and told Xiang Yu that he was going to send troops to attack Han in a rage.

Although he felt helpless and disappointed with Liu Bang's disobedience to his advice, prematurely "exposing" his true ambitions, and Li Ling's reckless recklessness, Zhang Liang felt at ease when he saw that he was willing to repent in time.

With this confused worm Xiang Bo who took the initiative to send to the door, he let go of the "righteousness" and pressed against each other. In addition, Liu Bang put down his frame, and cooperated with the cheek. Finally, he worked together and temporarily blinded this murderous disaster.

In order to gain the trust of Xiang Bo more effectively, and to find out the "traitor" who was the whistleblower, Liu Bang had an idea, and handed over Ying Ziying's blood-soaked robe to Xiang Bo, saying in his mouth: "...As for Li Yingzi The fact that Ying is the prime minister of the country is really a "traitor"! Qin and the generals have a bloody feud, how can I reuse it? I ordered someone to behead his head earlier, and the body is still in the coffin and has not been buried. It can be used at any time. Check it out."

Otherwise, if Xiang Yu asked to take a look at Ying Ziying's corpse, they could only hand over a stinking headless corpse instead of the head, which would definitely make him suspicious.

Only by taking advantage of Xiang Yu's arrogance that no one dares to fool him, he tried to fool him.

Zhang Liang was watching, feeling vaguely uneasy, but in the future he was unable to stop Liu Bang from handing out this bloody garment that was like a double-edged sword in his eyes, so he could only smile faintly.

Should be fine...

Zhang Liang thought to himself, after all, in the past three days, after watching the reaction of the Chu army, Xiang Yu was still restless. Every day, he sent messengers to condemn and scolded Liu Bang, and repeatedly mentioned the execution of Ziying.

If the assassin was a member of the Chu army, then Xiang Yu, as the instigator, should be very pleased with the revenge of his ancestors, and even humiliated the seemingly tight but evacuated guards in Liu Bang's army.

It is neither necessary nor does it seem that the city government will pretend to be confused on this matter.

Not from the Chu army, but with such sharp and skillful skills, I am afraid that it is really a hermit who lives in the shallows and came to the Qin Palace to kill the enemy.

"Since it was a misunderstanding, Brother Yu decided to clarify to General Xiang as a good brother."

Xiang Bo nodded confusedly, and took the blood robe carefully. Liu Bang held his hands overjoyedly and said sadly, "I hope the eldest brother will speak for the general on behalf of the idiot, don't listen to the villain's slander and mislead the idiot's sincerity. what!"

Whether Xiang Bo really didn't know or pretended to be confused and didn't say it, when he returned to Chu Ying and looked for Xiang Yu to speak, he did indeed live up to his 'Liu Xiandi', the entrustment of his future children's in-laws.

Seeing Ziying's blood-clothed clothes and knowing that the bloodline of his ancestors' enemies had already been executed, Xiang Yu's complexion slightly changed, and with Xiang Bo's troubles, he responded to Liu Bang's request to come to Hongmen for a banquet the next day and explain himself.

——The blood coat that proved Liu Bang's 'innocence' and personally killed Ying Ziying was the one lying in front of Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng at this moment.

Fan Zeng's thoughts changed, and he was determined to make use of this matter.

, and there is a strong desire to see the daring and brave man who dared to sneak into the Qin Palace alone and easily took his head as a certificate of submission.

He raised his eyes and looked up at Xiang Yu, who was tall and had black clouds on his face, and said calmly, "The general only summons his ministers, so he must have a conclusion in his mind, and he just doesn't want to believe it."

Ying Ziying has only one "life", but it is absurd and comical to be divided into two credits and "claimed".

There must be a fake between the two: either Liu Bang is playing tricks, or the hero is greedy for his credit.

Even though the former has rhetoric, in fact, he firmly holds that Hangu Pass has not been released, and can only show a blood coat that is difficult to distinguish between true and false. Skull and token.

Comparing the two with sincerity, the two stand out.

Fan Zeng did not doubt that the strong man named Lu was a meticulous work sent by Liu Bang: if the other party really wanted to approach Xiang Yu because of Liu Bang's instructions, it would be too late for the Han army to cooperate. The stubble came, which led to the leakage?

The existing hard evidence is like a mountain, the lie is simply self-defeating, and even Xiang Yu, who is extremely insensitive to politics, can't be deceived.

Xiang Yu frowned at Fan Zeng's rhetorical question, noncommittal.

He was well aware of the feud between Yafu and his uncle, so he deliberately ignored Fan Zeng's suggestion at this time.

However, although he did not think that the matter was communicated to his uncle Xiang Bo to know the truth, nor did he think that Xiang Bo participated in the scam...

But he knew that if Lu Bu hadn't taken the initiative to vote, which became the biggest flaw in their plan, then Liu Bang would have succeeded in their uncle and nephew playing the game.

Maybe Liu Bang is cocking one leg, smugly laughing at him for being too foolish!

Thinking of this, Xiang Yu's eyes were full of anger.
