Chapter 770 Cruelty to Ji Bu [Please subscribe*Please vote]

"Another one was broken!"

Mo Ya sighed as he looked at Ji Bu, who was kneeling on the ground with a dazed look in his eyes and had no place to blame himself.

Who was the last person who was played badly by Your Majesty in this way?
There are too many, I can’t remember them all.

The heavy snow came as expected, at least giving the State of Chu a chance to catch its breath.

Before the heavy snow blocked the road, the navy transported all of the Bingzhou cavalry to the Beiliang camp and began to repair the camp, preparing to spend the winter and waiting for the great battle in the spring of next year.

This heavy snow also allowed the main force of the Qin army to reach the Qin-Chu border before the great battle between Bingzhou and Chu.

For Qin, Bing and Chu, this heavy snow came at the right time.

Dao Zhi finally brought Changping Jun Xiong Qi to Zhongli City and found Yan Yan.

Yan Yan was stunned by Xiong Qi's arrival.

Didn't he ask Dao Zhi to cripple Xiong Qi for three years? Why did he bring him here?

"Since Emperor Xuanwu is worried about me, instead of worrying about me causing trouble, I should just go to the Emperor!"

"This way, we can prevent the people below from passing on the wrong information and accidentally killing me!"

"No matter what the Emperor wants to do to me, I can't escape. It's better for me to stay by the Emperor's side. This way, you won't have to worry, and I won't have to worry."

Xiong Qi took the initiative to speak and explained why he followed Dao Zhi here.

Yan Yan looked at Dao Zhi, then at Xiong Qi, and thought, "What you said makes a lot of sense. I can't find any reason to refute it for a moment."

"Do you know, Lord Changping, that King Wan of Chu's last will and testament before his death ordered the three armies to welcome you back, make you the Crown Prince of Chu, regent of the country, and successor to the throne of King Chu!" Yan Yan repeated the information he had obtained from Ji Bu.

Xiong Qi seemed to have known about this for a long time. He pointed at his nose and asked, "Your Majesty, do you think I am a fool or I am seeking death?"

"What do you mean?" Yan Yan was also very curious about what Xiong Qi was thinking now. After all, that was the throne of the Kingdom of Chu.

Xiong Qi was not without support for the Shouchun coup. At least Xiang Liang of the Tenglong Legion would definitely support him. If the officers of the Leibao Legion, such as Bambu who were now under house arrest, learned that Xiong Qi had returned, they would definitely stand up and support him.

So all in all, Xiong Qi has a good chance of returning to Shouchun and seizing the throne.

"Not to mention that the Shadow Tiger Legion, one of the three major legions of the Chu State, was actually annihilated by the navy of Xinling Junju. Let's talk about my Qin State. Your Majesty, do you know how many troops my Qin State has sent for this war?" Xiong Qi asked in return.

"How many?" Yan Yan was also curious about how many troops Qin would send and who would lead them.

"Two hundred thousand, with General Li Xin as the chief general, Meng Yi as the deputy general and military inspector, and Generals Yang Duanhe and Wang Ben assisting from the side." Xiong Qi said seriously.

"Another 100,000 naval forces and 50,000 Bingzhou blood cavalry landed on the Huai River. The purpose of this battle is to destroy Chu."

"Does your Majesty think I am a fool or do you want to be the King of Chu for a few months, and then become the king who loses the Chu State and is put on the pillar of shame in history?"

"..." Yan Yan was silent. This Xiong Qi was here to defeat him, but in just a quarter of an hour, he had left him speechless twice.

"Compared to becoming the King of Chu, I want to kill those bitches who framed me and killed my aunt!" Xiong Qi said hatefully with a murderous look in his eyes.

Yan Yan looked at the hatred in Xiong Qi's eyes. Based on his understanding of human nature, he knew that the hatred in Xiong Qi's eyes could not be fake. He really wanted to kill those who framed him and killed Queen Dowager Huayang.

It can only be said that filial piety in this era is also the most glorious era, and filial piety has surpassed power.

In order to avenge Queen Dowager Huayang, Xiong Qi was even willing to give up the throne.

"Okay, I wish you success!" Yan Yan put one hand on Xiong Qi's shoulder, taking back the righteous energy hidden in Xiong Qi's body, allowing Xiong Qi to regain sensation in his legs.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Feeling his legs regained consciousness, Xiong Qi was very happy. Now that his legs could move, he could do more. "Dao Zhi will always follow you. If you dare to mess around..." Yan Yan turned his head and looked at Dao Zhi, "Kill him directly!"

"Yes!" Dao Zhi nodded.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I don't want to die yet!" Xiong Qi also felt Yan Yan's murderous intent. If he really dared to disrupt the army, Yan Yan would really kill him.

"As long as you don't cause trouble for the army, Dao Zhi will provide you with some help in whatever you want to do!" Yan Yan continued.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Xiong Qi thanked him again. With Dao Zhi's help, he could do more.

"I heard that the navy captured Ji Bu, the leader of the Shadow Tiger Corps and the Ji family of Danyang?" Xiong Qi asked with narrowed eyes.

"Yeah!" Yan Yan nodded, and guessed what Xiong Qi wanted to do.

The purpose was nothing more than to extract more information from Ji Bu, to find out who were involved in framing him and killing Queen Dowager Huayang, and the mastermind behind it.

As a powerful figure pushed to the forefront by the Ji family of Danyang, Ji Bu must have known many secrets of the past.

"However, I don't think you can get any useful information out of Ji Bu!" Yan Yan thought about Ji Bu's current situation and shook his head.

"Why?" Xiong Qi was stunned.

"He's been played to pieces by His Majesty!" Mo Ya couldn't help laughing when he thought of Ji Bu's current appearance.

Now Ji Bu has become an autistic child, closing his six senses and refusing to listen, speak or see!
"We have to try!" Xiong Qi thought about it. He was the crown prince of King Chu who had completed his will. Ji Bu, as the commander of the Shadow Tiger Army of Chu, might listen to him.

"Then let's give it a try!" Yan Yan thought about it and it seemed that this was really possible.

Ji Bu doesn't want to see anyone, but that doesn't mean he doesn't want to see Xiong Qi.

However, if Ji Bu knew that Xiong Qi also came to destroy the State of Chu, the blow would probably be even greater.

To Ji Bu, it seemed really too cruel.

Mo Ya still took Xiong Qi to see Ji Bu.

Ji Bu had never seen Xiong Qi, nor did he open his eyes to look at Xiong Qi immediately.

But sometimes you can't just avoid seeing someone whenever you want, especially when you're a prisoner.

So, Ji Bu met Xiong Qi and knew Xiong Qi's identity.

"Your Highness, are you here to take back the throne?" Ji Bu, who had been silent all this time, took the initiative to speak.

Xiong Qi seemed to be his final salvation.

If Xiong Qi was willing to return to Shouchun, perhaps Xiong Qi could ascend the throne of Chu with the help of the Bingzhou army, become the new King of Chu, and then repel the Qin army.

By then, even if the powerful Chu State was controlled by Bingzhou, it would still be destroyed.

This was the last salvation he could think of.

Xiong Qi frowned, then nodded in agreement with Ji Bu's words.

"If I want to take back the throne, I need to know who framed me and who was behind the murder of Queen Dowager Huayang!" Xiong Qi asked directly.

Ji Bu nodded. This was natural. If Xiong Qi wanted to return to Shouchun, he would naturally have to find out those political enemies who opposed him first.

Therefore, Ji Bu concealed nothing and told everything that he and Ji Shi of Danyang knew, even including the current party struggles in the Shouchun court.
