I have lived forever since the end of Qin Dynasty

Chapter 208 Xiang Yu's Rage

Chu State, Yingdu.

When Xiang Yu returned, Jiangji Wuzhong was changed to this new name, or in other words, to this ancient name.

This is an old tradition that has continued since the Spring and Autumn Period.

Chu people miss their old land, and every time they were beaten by the Qin people and led to exile and relocation of the capital, they would change the original name of the city to Ying when they moved to a new place, as if they had been living in that ancient city and could call Chu The souls of people in exile come here to rest.

As a sheep-herding boy, Xiong Xin didn't understand this kind of romance, and he didn't change Pengcheng's name. This was also one of the crimes that Xiang Yu accused him of during the crusade.

Now that the world is stable, Xiang Yu, who returned to Chu, thought about it, and finally decided Wuzhong as the capital of the king. After all, this is the place where he started his family, and it belongs to the old Chu.

And Pengcheng is closer to the Central Plains. If he wants to fight for world hegemony, his capital will be there, which can serve as a bridgehead. But now Xiang Yu's idea is to live a stable life, so there is no need for that at all.

Even though Xiong Xin built a rather extravagant palace there, Xiang Yu only used it as a residence and hadn't been there once.

In the Palace of the King of Chu in Yingdu, Xiang Yu followed the letter sent by Chen Luo and was happily inviting the officials to a banquet.

In the seven cauldrons in the hall, three sheep, three hogs and a big herring were cooked respectively. The strong meaty aroma mixed with the faint wine aroma filled the entire hall.

Xiang Yu drank the clear wine in the glass and said with emotion: "You have to be in Chudi to drink such fine wine. Is there such fine wine in other places? That is something I have never heard of.

Alas, it's a pity that Jiang Ning has gone back to Chang'an again, so it's a pity that he can't have a drink with me here. "

Yu Ji, who was kneeling half a step behind him, said softly: "When I heard Yang Xiahou comfort Le'er's sister's homesickness, he meant that the sad parting and happy reunion in life are like the moon in the night sky. It’s normal to see the time round and the time go short. But all people in the world share a bright moon, if you miss someone, you can invite the moon, and the person you miss will feel it.”

"Jiang Ning's words are still so ingenious. No wonder Princess Dahan looks like a clever person, but she was coaxed into a daze by him." Xiang Yu laughed loudly, thinking that it has been light rain for the past two days, and the clouds may be thick at night.

Yu Ji smiled and did not answer the topic of death.

Xiang Yu said with emotion: "Jiang Ning wrote a letter the day before yesterday, saying that Wei Wang Jiyu rebelled, reminding me that it is enough to have a banquet in the near future, probably because I am afraid that Liu Bang will suspect me.

However, the stability of the world is also a good thing for the people of Chu. What reason do I have to lead the soldiers again? "

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiang Zhuang walked in from the outside of the hall with small steps, this was not following the etiquette of a big man, it was purely a rush caused by panic.

Seeing him approaching, Xiang Yu asked in a deep voice: "Zhuang, you are also a marquis with more than a thousand households in the city, you should be more calm. Without calmness, how can you manage your own fief?"

"My lord, you have taught me a lesson, but there is indeed an emergency right now." Xiang Zhuang lowered his head and said, "Yang Xiahou was on his way back to Chang'an, and he heard that he was assassinated by Wei Wang Jiyu's subordinates, so he sent this letter." Personal letter to you."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Xiang Yu suddenly slapped the desk, cracks appeared on the exquisite wooden desk, and the loud noise made everyone in the hall jump.

Xiang Zhuang couldn't help slandering, you just told me to be calm, but now you seem to be more anxious than me.

It's just that he didn't dare to say these words out loud, for fear of being hit by a big bully.

"Then how dare Ji Yu?" Xiang Yu gritted his teeth and took the silk book in Xiang Zhuang's hand, "You're bullying us, Long Qi!"

"The minister is here." There was a reply in the hall, and when Xiang Yu slapped the table, everyone's eyes were all focused on the main seat, and they stopped eating.

"Immediately assemble the army and prepare food and grass. Gu will send troops tomorrow to enter the capital of the Wei Kingdom and chop off the head of that dog thief to make a jug." He ordered sharply, and the anger in his voice echoed in the hall.

"I obey the order." Long Qi obeyed, his eyes excited.

Xiang Yu unfolded the silk scroll in his hand with a cold gaze, and began to think about how to take the shortest route to attack Ji Yu's palace.

After a while, he raised his head and called Long Qi who had already reached the entrance of the main hall: "And, you come back first."

"What else does your majesty want?"

"No, no more troops." Xiang Yu sat down calmly facing everyone's eyes, waved his big hand, "continue to play music and dance."

In the silk book, Chen Luo clearly told him that it was not Ji Yu who did it this time, but someone else, and told him not to act rashly, let alone launch a crusade. If he found any new clues and needed his voice to help, he would be the first Time to send the letter, until then, just stay in Chudi safely.

So although Xiang Yu was indignant in his heart, the person involved had said so, so he couldn't take his anger out on Ji Yu, right?

"Ji Yu really deserves to die." Xiang Yu cursed loudly, then sat down to drink sullenly.

Everyone in the hall looked at each other in blank dismay, dared not ask anything, dared not say anything, could only bow their heads and drink in the same way.

Glancing at Xiang Zhuang, he said in a muffled voice, "What are you doing standing here in a daze, you want me to invite you to sit down and drink?"

"No, no." Xiang Zhuang hurriedly slipped to the side, and sat down by himself, Xiang Yu is not something to be messed with now.

Seeing this, Yu Ji silently filled the wine glass for him, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, don't be too annoyed."

Xiang Yu just took a sip, and the anger still remained: "If there are other trivial matters, then I will bear it, but if someone wants to kill Jiang Ning today, will someone want to kill me in the future?"

She comforted softly: "Since Yang Xiahou won't let you send troops, then there is a reason for him. You don't have to listen to me, don't you also consider Yang Xiahou's words?"

So Xiang Yu sighed helplessly and said, "Why don't I know that Jiang Ning is afraid that I will send troops and arouse Liu Bang's suspicion? Some time ago, he told me countless times, explicitly and secretly, that I should not show my edge when I return to Chu, alas ..."

"That's all." He shook his head, took out his glass and drank the wine, "Drink, if something happens to him in Chang'an, no matter who did it, then Liu Bang won't be able to think about it."

Yu Ji stopped talking and continued to fill in for him.

----

The story of the Marquis of Yangxia spread to Yingdu, and at the banquet of the king of Chu, Yu slapped the table and said, "Yu Shuzi, how dare you do this? I want to send troops to attack him."

Xiangping Hou Zhuang persuaded: "The superior has already suppressed rebellion, and it is too late to send troops. Mobilizing the people to work hard for the people is something a virtuous king would not do."

Wang Congzhi rewarded him with a lot of money and silk. ——"Historical Records The Family of King Wulie of Chu"
