Chapter 114: Thieves' ambition
Jiujiang Kingdom, six counties in the capital.
Ying Bu crossed his legs and drank a bucket of wine alone, as if he didn't see Ji Bu standing beside him.
Ji Bu showed displeasure, "The Western Wei Dynasty caused chaos, and the overlord hoped that the King of Jiujiang sent troops to provide assistance."
Ying Bu was confused and smiled, "Didn't I send three thousand soldiers to gang the overlord against Tian Rong? The Western Wei Dynasty was in chaos, and Jiujiang could no longer provide troops."
Ji Bu endured the urge to take action. Since Ying Bu became king, he has become less and less concerned about Xiang Yu. The thieves in the world have almost returned to Ying Bu, but he said he could not bring out troops. The three thousand troops sent to Qi were still here by Ji Bu.
"The Jiujiang Kingdom's troops should be more than a few thousand, right?" Ji Bu said angrily.
"Everyone knows that Ji Bu promised a thousand gold. Since he has a thousand gold, why not buy soldiers and horses? Why come and borrow soldiers from me? Hahaha!" Ying Bu drank a lot of wine and drank it.
Ji Bu slapped the table and showed off, "Do you really think the Overlord lacks your troops? Sima Longzhu's Yue people's cavalry and Overlord's Loufan's cavalry are enough to suppress the rebellion, just want to know which side you are standing on!"
Ying Bu loosened his hand and Jiu Hu fell to the ground. The vicious subordinates outside the door pushed the door and stared at Ji Bu.
"What are you doing? Go down, go down. I just fell off my cup. Don't scare Commander Ji Bu." Ying Bu sneered.
"Yes!" Ying Bu's subordinates closed the door with a squeak.
Ji Bu stroked the hair scattered on his forehead, "Is King Jiujiang established his authority in front of Ji?"
Ying Bu took the wine pot and drank it, "What does Commander Ji think? I am the king of a country and should have the power to govern the country. The overlord came to borrow troops again and again, which disrupted my country's policy."
"Okay!" Ji Bu nodded angrily, "I will tell the original words of the Overlord."
Ji Bu threw his hem angrily and was about to push the door out.
"Let's wait!" Ying Bu shouted, "The princes should obey the overlords, but they didn't say they obey the overlords. Commander Ji wanted to leave after getting angry. This... isn't that good?"
"The King of Jiujiang is the best in the three armies. It seems that Ji has a chance to ask for advice today?" Ji Bu turned around and looked directly at Ying Bu's arrogant face.
Ji Bu clenched his fists. Ying Bu was once privately called "Little Xiang Yu". Even if Ying Bu was drunk, he might not be the opponent.
"Hahaha, Commander Ji, don't panic." Ying Bu smiled, "I will use it as a warning this time. If there is another time, the group of outlaws outside will ask for an explanation from Commander Ji."
Ji Bu let go of his fists and was extremely uncomfortable being suppressed by Ying Bu's aura.
Ying Bu put down the wine pot and stood up slowly, walked to Ji Bu and patted his shoulder.
"Don't the Overlord want to see my position? I don't send troops just to tell the Overlord that I will not help either side." Ying Bu said.
"Did King Jiujiang forget the promise when he was appointed as the king? The Overlord was the King of Zhou back then. When King Zhou was in trouble, why should the princes be neutral?!" Ji Bu shouted, but the strength was much smaller than before.
"Did Commander Ji forget that Qin was also a prince and finally destroyed Zhou?" Ying Bu joked.
Ji Bu said nothing.
Ying Bu stuck it in Ji Bu's ear and whispered, "But I am not Qin. The Overlord is a little busy, so I will still help. Just like... Isn't that boy Mi Xin still not dead? The Overlord doesn't want to do it himself, I can."
Xiang Yu had already changed King Huai of Chu into Emperor Yi and planned to be exiled to Chendi, but King Huai of Chu was still in Pengcheng at this time.
"When Commander Ji took him away, he would know what to do if he would bring any evildoer outside the door." Ying Bu said.
"Do you dare to kill Mi Xin? Are you afraid of the resentment of other princes?" Ji Bu asked.
"Hahaha." Ying Bu hugged Ji Bu and laughed wildly, "Where is anyone in the world who really cares about the boy who herd cattle? Besides, this is not the first time I'm killing descendants of the Chu royal family."
Jing Ju, a nobleman of Chu, proclaimed himself the King of Chu, but was attacked by Xiang Liang on the pretext of betraying King Huai of Chu, but Ying Bu killed him himself.
"I am familiar with killing the King of Chu." Ying Bu said in a pun.
"That's good," Ji Bu said with emotion.
"That's it." Ying Bu shouted outside the door, "Come on! Accompany Commander Ji back to Pengcheng."
"No need." Ji Bu refused, "I will ask the soldiers to send Emperor Yi out of Pengcheng, and the King of Jiujiang will send someone to intercept Mi Xin on the way to Chendi."
Ying Bu became more and more dangerous, and Ji Bu didn't dare to get too close to his men.
"Then it's as Chief Ji said."
Ji Bu walked out of the royal court quickly, and Ying Bu behind him laughed wildly.
"belch--"
Ying Bu patted his stomach and poured out the water from the wine pot.
If Ji Bu really dared to take action just now, Ying Bu, who was not drunk at all, would undoubtedly die.
"Boss, if we don't help Xiang Yu, will he attack us in the future?" asked the big man with a stinky face outside the court.
"I never thought of fear if I dared to do this!" Ying Bu said, covering Ziying's crushed wrist, "If you want to become bigger, you must kill the biggest one. Unless Xiang Yu returns with a great victory, the entire Jiujiang army will attack Chu in the future!"
"But King Linjiang Gongao and King Hengshan Wu Qi have been watching it very closely recently. No matter what, Xiang Yu must have been prepared for it." said the big man.
Ying Bu had a gloomy face. Chu was in the east of Jiujiang, Linjiang and Hengshan were in the west of Jiujiang, and Ying Bu was stuck in the middle.
"No hurry. If you send troops to help the Western Wei in private another day, Xiang Yu will definitely let the two countries send troops, and it is the best time to take advantage of their unpreparedness."
"Report! The king, Liu Bang sent an envoy to ask for his visit." The guard said.
"It's not Liu Bang, it's Lu Zhi." Ying Bu sneered, "Boil the water in the cauldron and throw the messenger in. I want to pull me into the water, and dream about it!"
Soon, the heart-wrenching cry of the messenger came from outside, and in just a moment, there was no sound again.
Ying Bu listened to the voice and looked enjoyable, "When I settle the south, Ziying will also swim in the cauldron!"
