Emperor Zhenguan

Chapter 258 You Are My Brothers

Without mentioning the greetings between Wei Siqi and Wei Puti, Li Zhen stepped forward and said: "Your Highness, the man was fished out of the prison, and no one stopped him."

Li Zhiyun nodded and said nothing.Now that Tang Jun controls Luoyang City, who the King of Chu wants is a one-sentence matter. Except for Wang Shichong, everyone else can discuss with the second brother.What's more, a mere wife of Wang Xuanying, it's just a trivial matter.

At this time, Wei Siqi remembered the King of Chu, and the two hurriedly pulled Wei Puti forward, and introduced: "Eldest sister, this is His Highness King Chu, thanks to his rescue, you and my sister can meet."

Wei Puti lifted his head lightly, looked at the heroic young man on the main seat, and bowed his knees in blessing.

"Wei Shi thanks His Royal Highness King Chu for saving us."

Li Zhiyun nodded and said: "Sister, you don't need to be too polite. This king is now the husband of Gui Niang. We are a family, so there is no need to thank you."

He must be younger than Wei Puti, but who made Wei Gui a little older than Wei Puti, so he could only reluctantly be a brother-in-law and recognize Wei Puti as his sister-in-law.

Wei Puti bit his red lips lightly, and said in a low voice: "His Royal Highness, I dare to ask, what will happen to Wang Xuanying?"

Li Zhiyun raised his eyebrows and said: "This matter, I have no control over this matter. Wang Shichong and Wang Xuanying and their sons can only be handed over to the sages of the Tang Dynasty. This king can't help. Of course, if my sister just asks casually, this king can make the decision to make Wang Xuanying reconcile with you, and you will not be involved in the affairs of the Wang clan."

Although Wei Puti is beautiful, Li Zhiyun will not save Wang Xuanying for her.In his heart, whether it is Wang Shichong or Wang Xuanying, they are all mortals.

Wei Puti lowered his head and dared not speak any more.

Although Li Zhiyun didn't use a heavy tone, there was an undeniable taste in what he said.

Wei Siqi hurriedly said: "Your Highness misunderstood, when my sister married Wang Xuanying, it was Wang Shichong who forced the two grandfathers, it was definitely not because my grandfather and sister were willing."

At this time, Wei Ji also cupped his hands and said: "Your Highness, let me tell you that when a certain person lived in Luoyang and was threatened by Wang Shichong, he had no choice but to make a bad move. Please forgive me, Your Highness."

Li Zhiyun knew well that Wei Ji was lying.

Marriage and investment are not uncommon, and Li Zhiyun is not blind, so he can see it naturally.But now that he has a relationship with Webster, he will naturally ignore this.Besides, Wang Shichong has been defeated, so it is meaningless to pursue these.

"This king knows that Yue Zu doesn't need to take it to heart."

When Li Zhiyun and Wei Puti met, Qin Qiong, Li Junxian, Cheng Yaojin, Luo Shixin, Niu Jinda, and Xu Shiji from the army of the King of Chu gathered together.

"I've found out clearly that Big Brother Shan is being held in prison. The King of Qin decided to choose a day to behead all the generals under Wang Shichong's command by the Luoshui River outside Luoyang City." Xu Shiji said.

Qin Qiong asked: "Have you pleaded with King Qin?"

"Please, I am willing to exchange the meritorious service I made this time in exchange for Brother Shan's life, but King Qin forbids it."

"Why?" Cheng Yaojin was puzzled, and said, "Wang Shichong is the one to be damned. Why can't King Qin forgive Shan Xiongxin?"

Although they went their separate ways back then, and even fought against each other for a time, Wagang's old love was still there, and they didn't want to see Shan Xiongxin die.

Luo Shixin said, "I know the reason."

"What's the reason?" Xu Shiji asked.He and Shan Xiongxin had the best relationship among the people in Wagang back then, and they cared the most at this time.

Luo Shidao: "When the armies of the king of Qin and Wang Shichong confronted each other, Shan Xiongxin was the forward general. He once led his army to defeat Hou Junji and took the life of the king of Qin. The situation was extremely dangerous at that time, and King Qin's war horse was almost shot to death by arrows.

Perhaps, because of this, King Qin was unwilling to let Shan Xiongxin go. "

Hearing this, everyone fell silent.

Shan Xiongxin has murderous intentions towards the King of Qin, and it seems that there is nothing wrong with the King of Qin wanting to kill Shan Xiongxin.

Li Junxian said: "King Qin is too stingy, the two armies are fighting each other, each is its own master, why bother to worry about it."

"Jun Xian!" Qin Qiong quickly scolded him, "You are crazy for saying such things."

Li Junxian also realized that he had made a slip of the tongue, so he quickly shut up.

Xu Shiji asked them, "Where is the King of Chu? Have you pleaded with the King of Chu?"

Everyone looked at each other, Qin Qiong said in a low voice: "Mao Gong, although we serve in the army of the king of Chu, we have always been separated from the king of Chu by a layer, and we are not direct descendants. It is not easy to say such things."

Li Junxian, Luo Shixin, Cheng Yaojin, and Niu Jinda all acquiesced.Although they knew that King Chu took good care of them and trusted them, there was always a thin film between them.

To be more specific, it can be seen from Duan Zhixuan and Xie Shufang.They were the first to follow the King of Chu, and they were the most trusted by the King of Chu. Duan Zhixuan and Xie Shufang were able to discuss with Du Ruhui and Xue Shou all important matters in the army.

And Qin Qiong and others, what they do most is to fight wars, not to make decisions.That's why Qin Qiong said that they were not the direct descendants of King Chu.

Xu Shiji suddenly panicked, "What should I do, do you want me to watch Big Brother Shan be beheaded?"

In his opinion, he was not very familiar with King Qin, so it was understandable that his intercession was unsuccessful.If the King of Chu is willing to come forward as a guarantor, Shan Xiongxin will most likely not die.

But now, King Chu's path seems to be blocked.

"What are you panicking about? I'm going to plead with His Highness!" Cheng Yaojin said.Although he is usually not stingy, he is very loyal at this time.

"I'll go too." Li Junxian said.

"Go together!" Luo Shixin, Qin Qiong, and Niu Jinda spoke at the same time.

Xu Shiji was inexplicably moved, and he cupped his fists and saluted them, "Thank you brothers."

Not long after, Li Zhiyun got a report from Li Zhen that Qin Qiong and others had something to see.He left space for Wei Siqi and others, left by himself, and met Qin Qiong and others in the side tent.

As soon as they met, Qin Qiong directly explained the purpose of coming, and asked Li Zhiyun to protect Shan Xiongxin, and they were willing to exchange the meritorious service they made this time.

Hearing such words, Li Zhiyun felt very uncomfortable. He always hoped that Qin Qiong and others would trust him unreservedly like Duan Zhixuan and Xie Shufang.Now Qin Qiong and others pleaded for Shan Xiongxin, but proposed an exchange, which made him feel a little strange between himself and Qin Qiong.

"The meritorious service was made by you, how can you take it out and replace it, there is no need to mention this matter again." Li Zhiyun directly refused.

Hearing this, Qin Qiong and others were immediately disheartened.

Immediately afterwards, Li Zhiyun said again: "But I promise you that I will intercede with my second brother."

Ok?
Qin Qiong raised her head and looked at Li Zhiyun in disbelief.

"What's strange, you are the most trusted brothers of this king, and your brothers are naturally my brothers. This king can entrust your life to you on the battlefield, and now you are willing to entrust your brothers' lives to this king. How strange?"

Hearing this, Qin Qiong was inexplicably moved.

Li Junxian even said directly: "This subordinate is willing to die for His Highness!"

"Me too!" Cheng Yaojin clasped his fists.

Luo Shixin and Niu Jinda naturally followed suit.

Qin Qiong said: "Your Highness's kindness will never be forgotten in my heart."

Li Zhiyun waved his hand and said: "Don't be too happy, Shan Xiongxin once wanted to kill the second brother, it's not that simple."

"As long as His Highness shows up, King Qin will definitely give His Highness a face, hehe." Cheng Yaojin said with a smile.
