Xiang Zhuang suddenly interrupted Xiang Yu's words. Xiang Yu was slightly unhappy. He originally wanted to have a good talk with Xiang Zhuang about the matter, but everyone was present, so Xiang Yu planned to wait for everyone to leave and have a long talk with his brother, but At this time, as soon as he expressed his idea, he was rejected by Xiang Zhuang. This made Xiang Yu not angry and thought that Xiang Zhuang was deliberately going against him.

But Xiang Yu did not vent his dissatisfaction at this time. He suppressed the anger in his heart, looked at Xiang Zhuang, and said in a deep voice: "Zhuang, please don't interrupt me, let me finish."

Xiang Yu no longer paid attention to Xiang Zhuang. He looked at everyone and continued: "Over the years, everyone followed my uncle Xiang Liang, conquering the east and west, and made great achievements. Later, due to the battle of Dingtao, the Chu army was defeated by the Qin army, and my uncle died in the battle. , Mi Xin also took this opportunity to suppress our Xiang family, which caused the Xiang family to decline in the Chu Kingdom for a time. We have survived all this, but now that the Chu Kingdom has risen again and the Qin Kingdom has perished, should we consider the future? Where is the road? Should each of our sons of the Xiang family take charge of one side? I think it is very necessary. So, I have brought you all here today just to let you understand that Chu State is no longer the seven heroes fighting for hegemony in the past. The Chu State at that time, the Chu State at this time, should be decided by our Xiang family,"

As soon as Xiang Yu said these words, everyone was shocked. Is he planning to usurp the throne? Although many people have had such thoughts, is the time really ripe now?

Xiang Zhuang was interrupted by Xiang Yu. He sat down helplessly. He heard Xiang Yu mention it again and wanted to let each of the Xiang family take charge. Xiang Zhuang could no longer hold back this time. He stood up and held his hands in his hands and said: "Brother, please listen. I say something,"

Xiang Zhuang bowed to Xiang Bo and Fan Zeng again. Both of them were elders in the army. They each nodded. Xiang Zhuang continued: "Brother may think that force can solve everything. At present, the coalition forces of various countries are following our Chu army." , following his brother into the Pass, his intention is also to get a territory, hoping to use his brother's power to rise up, but once the brother favors the Xiang family and insists on his own way, just hoping to let the Xiang family rule the world, so soon, I believe, Allied armies from various countries will surrender to Liu Bang one after another. Liu Bang raised his arms and ordered to attack his brother and wipe out the Xiang family's influence in various places. At that time, how can it be quelled by force?"

After a pause, Xiang Zhuang walked a few steps in the tent, and then said: "If the Xiang family wants to rise, it must first have a solid foundation, strong popular support, and strong enough defense and military. With these, Only in this way can we seek for the economy, people's livelihood, and future generations. Only in this way can the Xiang family truly stand firm. At that time, the Xiang family will be one of the largest families in Chu. Brother, do you understand this?"

"What General Xiang Zhuang said is true. I think it is not easy for the General to consider enfeoffment prematurely. Moreover, the coalition forces of various countries are not as easy to control as the General thought. We need to consider these. We might as well enter Xianyang first, and the rest , Let’s talk about it later,” Fan Zeng stood up and said with a smile,

Xiang Bo saw that Xiang Yu and Xiang Zhuang were at war with each other, and the words had reached the point where the brothers were falling apart. Fan Zeng stood up to smooth things over, and he had to stand up to show his attitude: "I think what Mr. Fan said is very true. In addition, I express Personally, I don’t want the Xiang family to be too arrogant. Once the Xiang family becomes the dominant family, it is likely to become a big problem and bring disaster. Moreover, the Xiang family has been a Chu general for generations, and his father Xiang Yan died fighting for the Chu State in Jiangling. We must Follow our ancestors’ will and don’t discuss this matter anymore.”

Xiang Bo looked at Xiang Yu again. Xiang Yu saw that his uncle was taking a tough stance and some people in the Xiang family were silent. His opinion was rejected. He snorted coldly and left in frustration.

The tent became quiet again. Xiang Yu left. The meeting was over. Xiang Zhuang didn't want to dwell on it anymore. He stood up and came to Fan Zeng's side. He cupped his hands and said, "Brother will get into trouble sooner or later if he insists on going his own way. I hope you will get into trouble sooner or later." Mr. Fan please advise me a lot,”

Fan Zeng nodded, Xiang Zhuang said goodbye to Xiang Bo and hurriedly left the tent.

Many people were saddened by the unhappy breakup, but they understood what Xiang Zhuang meant. Before the Xiang family was not strong enough, they should not set up a banner and stir up trouble.

…

When Xiang Zhuang returned to the camp, it was almost midnight. At this time, the military camp was very quiet. Apart from the footsteps of patrolling soldiers, there were only cavalry galloping not far away. They were scouts responsible for security outside the camp.

After encountering a wall with Xiang Yu, Xiang Zhuang felt extremely depressed. Both Kong Ji and Li Hong wanted to take the opportunity to persuade Xiang Zhuang, but Xiang Zhuang had no intention of talking to anyone at this time. After a few simple explanations with the two, Xiang Zhuang dismissed The two of them returned to camp,

In a few days, Kong Yu will arrive at the theater. Xiang Zhuang really wants to have a chat with his father-in-law who has not seen him for a long time. The situation in the world has suddenly changed. Xiang Yu is gradually losing control. He has become coquettish. History is still moving forward in his original footsteps. Now, Xiang Zhuang doesn't know whether he can forcefully change history.

After driving the horse for a certain distance in the camp, Xiang Zhuang came to the grain carriage. The horses had been unloaded, leaving only the wooden cart parked here. Xiang Zhuang got off the horse, came to the wooden cart and sat down.

Letian ordered people to guard everywhere and forbid anyone to get close, except himself, who stayed beside Xiang Zhuang. Xiang Zhuang was sitting on the wooden cart, looking up at the sky, and his heart could not calm down for a long time.

After a while, Xiang Zhuang looked at Letian and smiled helplessly: "It's already very late. You should go back and rest."

"General, I can't let you be here alone, I'll stay with you for a while,"

"No need, this is Chu Camp, there will be no danger. You can take the brothers back to rest. I will sit here for a while and then go back."

Seeing Xiang Zhuang like this, Letian had no choice but to cup his hands and lead everyone away.

The surroundings seemed to become quieter. He once practiced martial arts with Xiang Yu, and scenes of hunting came to mind. Xiang Zhuang felt that in this cruel reality, could he still preserve the memories of the past?

At the beginning, I focused on developing iron swords, compound bows, and horseshoes. I just hoped that the Xiang family's army would be stronger. Xiang Liang could use his elite troops to conquer the Qin capital and change his fate of dying in battle. But the reality is often cruel. ,No matter how hard Xiang Zhuang works, it is difficult to change all this,

Xiang Zhuang also considered today and wanted to propose the idea of ​​guarding Jiangdong to Xiang Yu, but unexpectedly, he and Xiang Yu had a falling out just as the meeting began.

Xiang Zhuang doesn't know whether he is right or wrong in rejecting Xiang Yu's opinion, but one thing Xiang Zhuang is sure of is that if Xiang Yu offends the generals of various countries at this time, I am afraid that Liu Bang will definitely take advantage of the loopholes to win over people's hearts. The Chu-Han struggle will come early, and Liu Bang will not have to After entering Shu, what chance does Xiang Yu have of winning in the battle at Guanzhong?

Thinking of the future struggle between Chu and Han, Xiang Zhuang strengthened his determination. He knew that he was not wrong. He must stop Xiang Yu's coquettishness, not only for the Xiang family, for Xiang Yu, but also for himself.

A sudden determination made Xiang Zhuang feel no longer hesitant. He sighed softly and prepared to stand up. However, he felt a fur cloak suddenly wrap around him. Xiang Zhuang was startled and looked back. Ying Xue I don't know when the moon has come behind me,

"It's so cold. General Xiangzhuang is sitting here alone. Is he missing some girl in his hometown?" Ying Xueyue seemed to be joking and sat next to Xiangzhuang. Xiangzhuang had planned to return to the camp, but her sudden Xiang Zhuang had to sit down again and said with a smile: "How did Miss Xue Yue see that?"

Xiang Zhuang's answer made Ying Xueyue immediately look at him warily and said in surprise: "I was right."

"Well, there are indeed many beautiful girls in my hometown waiting for me to go back," Xiang Zhuang said half-jokingly. This time, Ying Xueyue didn't say anything. She was silent for a moment and sighed softly: "General Xiangzhuang's With your temperament and the Xiang family's status at this time, I estimate that there will be many girls looking forward to marrying you,"

Ying Xueyue's words revealed her inner thoughts, and Xiang Zhuang suddenly realized that Ying Xueyue already had unusual feelings for him. Moreover, today she suddenly proposed to stay in the camp, making Xiang Zhuang realize that, She seems to be interested in touching herself,

But Xiang Zhuang really didn't know how to answer what Ying Xue Yue said just now. Just like that, both of them fell silent.

The cold night wind came, and Ying Xueyue suddenly trembled and sneezed involuntarily. Xiang Zhuang looked at this weak woman. She looked strong on the outside, but her heart was fragile. She was also like other people. Just like a woman, she longs for a man who can share her sorrows and pains, and she longs even more for a good man who can take care of her for the rest of her life.

The cold wind was biting, but she was only wearing a cotton robe, but put the cloak on herself. Xiang Zhuang felt that he was too selfish, so he couldn't help but smile apologetically, took off the cloak from his body, and wrapped it gently in Ying Xue On Yue's body, he warned: "It's windy and cold at night. You're a little girl. Your body is so thin. If you get frozen, it's not a joke."

A thick cloak was wrapped around her body, and warmth spread throughout her body. Ying Xueyue couldn't help but feel a sore nose, and almost shed tears, but Xiang Zhuang in front of her continued to warn: "Also, you are a girl, don't run around all the time. There are many things that we men should accomplish. The hatred and hope of your Ying family should also be carried by your brother. You also have to believe in me. I will help you get revenge, but... not now. "

Xiang Zhuang's last words were very solemn, and Ying Xueyue was deeply moved. She could no longer hold back the tears in the corners of her eyes, and the tears fell thickly, dripping on her cloak.

The two of them looked at each other silently. After an unknown period of time, Ying Xueyue suddenly hugged Xiang Zhuang tightly and cried loudly in his arms. In these years, except for her brother Yingtie who occasionally wrote letters to care about her, the whole world seemed to be in trouble. She had forgotten herself, but at this moment, Xiang Zhuang’s heartfelt words made Ying Xueyue feel the warmth of the world again.

Maybe he is the man he has been waiting for for a long time, but he is the general of the Xiang family, Xiang Yu's younger brother, and the general of the Chu State. However, he is a descendant of the Ying family, a Qin State and a Chu State, between the two great enemies. Can there be a future in time?

Ying Xueyue didn't dare to think any more. She was deeply afraid that if she continued to think about it, the next second, she would not be able to stay in Xiang Zhuang's arms and continue to cry.

Xiang Zhuang hesitated for a long time. He finally stretched out his arms and hugged Ying Xueyue tightly, letting her cry wantonly in his arms. This woman who can carry the winner and half of the family's sky, No matter how strong she is in front of outsiders, she is still a woman after all.

Xiang Zhuang feels that he has a growing fondness for Ying Xueyue, especially when she shows her most vulnerable side in front of him. She... also needs someone to take care of her.

A bold idea came to Xiang Zhuang's mind. He slowly helped Ying Xueyue up, his eyes silently looking at this lovely person in front of him. The two looked at each other for a moment, and Xiang Zhuang actually put his mouth to hers. , kissed her lips deeply,

At first Ying Xueyue was still struggling, but soon, she gradually gave in and was intoxicated by Xiang Zhuang's deep kiss, unable to extricate herself.

Under the moonlight, the two hugged each other quietly for a long time... a long time...
