The letter written by Zhang Liang and Zhang Zifang to Master Xiang Bo and Xiang is as follows:

"Xiang Bowu, brother Xiang, after a separation from Pengcheng, I didn't see each other for two years. I don't know what my brother is doing recently? I am incompetent and assisted King Han without any achievements. I know that Xiang Kang was unfilial and disrespectful to his brother, but he was forced to surrender to his army. He was ashamed of his brother, and he was still guilty even though he died. However, I can swear to heaven and dawn and decided not to forget his old love with his brother, but if he has the chance, he will return to his brother's position and apologize in person, and continue his love for Boyaziqi again with his brother.

I was not in vain to fall into the cliff, and I depended on the blessing of the sky. Xiang Kang was not very suspicious of my brother. I accidentally heard a secret matter in Xianyang. Emperor Xiong hated the King of Western Chu to seize power and arbitrarily sealed the seal, so I sent a secret envoy to send a brocade to Xiang Kang. There was a bloody edict in the belt, and ordered Xiang Kang to raise an army to attack Chu, capture the overlord, and return the major policies of Chu to him. Emperor Yi also knew that his brother and Xiang Kang were incompatible. Xiang Kang had a long time ago, but because of his superiority, seniority and young people, he did not dare to act rashly. In order to envoy Xiang Kang obeyed, he ordered the secret envoy to make a promise in front of Xiang Kang, vowing to kill Brother Bo and Xiang You and Xiang Sui, two virtuous nephews, which not only vented their anger for Xiang Kang, but also made Xiang Kang not have to bear the reputation of killing his relatives. Xiong Xin was fooled and Xiang Kang was traitorous, and hoped that his brother would be wary.

In addition, my brother also knew that Xiang Kang was in harmony with Xiong Xin and had sent many people to Pengcheng with beautiful jade and gold pearls to secretly bribe the king's close ministers, pretending to persuade the king to migrate Xiong Xin to remote wastelands, in order to save Xiong Xin and escape from Pengcheng, and to welcome Xiong Xin to Xianyang, Guanzhong, and trapped the king and his brother in a place of unfaithfulness and unrighteousness. The princes rebelled and abandoned the world. The brother was the king's closeest relative, and the flesh and blood were connected, so he must be guarded.

My younger brother is brutal. The monarch Han Cheng was unfortunately captured by the King of Nanyang and was detained in Wancheng. He was very concerned. He begged Brother Bo to remember his old love and provide justice for his help. Don’t let Han Cheng suffer humiliation and avoid the disaster of swords and axes. If this is possible, I will definitely be crushed to pieces to repay Brother Bo’s kindness…”

The rest of the content was Zhang Liang pleaded with Master Xiang Xiang to save Han Cheng's life and leave a bloody incense for the Korean royal family, and hinted that as long as Xiang Bo could do it, he was willing to continue to act as an inner supporter for Bo Xiang. But these Master Xiang Bo Xiang was no longer in the mood to see it. Master Xiang Xiang gritted his teeth and looked fierce, staring at him to the point of that - he swears to kill Brother Bo, Xiang You, and Xiang Sui, two virtuous nephews!

"Very good! Xiong Xin, very good! I didn't expect that you, a little boy, would be so vicious. In order to please Xiang Kang, you dared to take the initiative to help the little boy kill my family. You are so cruel and ruthless. I really underestimated you, a little boy!"

At the same time, Xiang Bo's heart was scared one after another. Xiang Bo knew very well that Xiang Kang hated him more than anyone else, but because of his flesh and blood affection, he never dared to attack him. But Xiang Bo never expected that in order to win over Xiang Kang for his use, Xiong Xin would take the initiative to be this evil man and use the blood and lives of his father and son to please Xiang Kang! If Xiong Xin and Xiang Kang were really successful, what other way could he have?

This is not counting. What makes Xiang Bo even more frightened is that even if Xiong Xin does not have the ability to kill him for the time being, he cannot guarantee that he will have such an opportunity in the future. Moreover, he reminded Xiang Kang of this method, as long as the opportunity is right, Xiang Kang can still use someone else to get rid of himself. He does not have to bear the infatuation of his nephew's uncle killing, but also avenge his previous shame and take revenge on his intentional difficulties for him many times before, and stab him in the back! How many reasons did Xiang Kang want to kill Xiang Bo? No other person knows better than Xiang Bo himself!

In a rage, Xiang Bo, who was also in a furious temper, had already tore Zhang Liang's letters to pieces. Fortunately, Xiang Bo knew how to restrain himself, so he forced himself to suppress his anger first, and then immediately said to Xiang You: "Where is the messenger sent by your Uncle Zhang? Take me to see him immediately."

Xiang Bo had never seen the messenger sent by Zhang Liang, but it was not surprising that Zhang Liang's confidant family in Xia Pi had already died in Xia Pi. In addition, Han Li, a brother of Zhang Liang who was very familiar with the Xiang family, had already died in the battlefield. In addition, Zhang Liang's handwritten letter was stamped with his Korean Situ seal, Xiang Bo did not doubt the authenticity of the messenger's identity. He just asked directly: "How did he know what Zifang mentioned in the letter?"

"Report to Master, Lord Situ heard the news from the head of the guard of Xiang Kang Xu Ji." Zhang Liang's messenger replied honestly: "Previously, Lord Situ tried his best to help Xiang Kang when he entered Guanzhong when Xiang Kang entered the army, and made some contributions to Xiang Kang, gained a certain trust from Xiang Kang, and was able to be with him all the time."

"When Emperor Yi sent a secret envoy to contact Xiang Kang, we, Lord Situ, happened to be present, but Xiang Kang did not let us, Lord Situ participate in the reception of Emperor Yi's secret envoy. Lord Situ knew that there must be something strange about it and was worried that the matter would be related to our King of Han, so he secretly bribed Xiang Kang's guardian Xu Ji to inquire about it. Unexpectedly, he found important news about you, Master. Lord Situ was worried that Master, you will be harmed by a traitor, so he quickly sent a villain to send a book thousands of miles to remind Master, be careful."

Xiang Bo gritted his teeth again, and then he did not hesitate, immediately said: "When I go back and tell Zhang Situ, I will say that he will not thank him for his kindness. I remember this kindness, so please rest assured that the matter of Hengyang Lord is for me. As long as I am still in the world for one day, I will never let anyone hurt Hengyang Lord. But if I have the chance, I will definitely find a way to persuade the King of Western Chu to release Hengyang Lord and let him go back to reunite with you Zhang Situ."

"Thank you, Master Xiang." Zhang Liang's messenger thanked him quickly and said very carefully: "Master, we Lord Situ send villains here, please keep it secret. Xiang Kang has a spy in Pengcheng, and there are still people under the command of the King of Chu who may be his inner support. Once the news of the villain coming to deliver the letter to you on behalf of Lord Situ, we Lord Situ will definitely be killed immediately."

"Don't worry about this. Except for the husband, father and son and King Xiang, no one will know about your Zhang Situ sending you to deliver the letter." Xiang Bo patted his chest and promised, and then ordered Xiang You: "You'er, you personally arrange your residence for your Uncle Zhang's messenger, keep his identity secret and treat him well. For your father, go to the palace to meet your brother King Xichu."

"Father, it's already dark. You haven't had supper yet. Why don't you tomorrow?"

Xiang You's kindness dissuasion brought Xiang Bo's anger and scolding, "I can't wait for such a thing tomorrow? Ask someone to prepare a car for me immediately, and wait for me to come back for dinner before eating!"

Logically speaking, it was already dark, and ordinary ministers certainly had almost no chance to go to the palace to pay homage to Xiang Yu. Fortunately, Master Xiang's identity was extraordinary. After taking a car to the palace gate to ask for a meeting, not only did the guards dare not refuse and refuse to report it, but Xiang Yu also ordered the summoning of Master Xiang Bo, who said that there was an urgent matter to be reported. Our Master Xiang was very cautious when he was serious. After meeting Xiang Yu, he first went to Xiang Yu to temporarily shut up and then submitted Zhang Liang's letter of informing Xiang Yu.

The letter did not mention how Xiong Xin wanted to give Xiang Yu, and Xiang Yu was certainly not as excited and scared as Master Xiang. However, when he saw Xiang Kang sending someone to bribe his close ministers, Xiang Yu was still furious. He immediately suspected Kuai Che who advised him to move Xiong Xin to Fujian and said angrily: "Kuai Che, has he accepted the bribe from Xiang Kang's traitor?"

"Master, you can investigate Kuai Che's affairs slowly. The most important thing now is what we should do with Xiong Xin's son." It is rare for Master Xiang to take the opportunity to slander Kuai Che, whom he has always looked down upon, but just quickly reminded: "In order to please Xiang Kang, the little evil beast, since Xiong Xin can kill me for the little evil beast, he will naturally kill you for the little evil beast. You must not take this matter lightly, King."

"Just rely on him?" Xiang Yu snorted contemptuously and said, "I can kill him with one hand!"

"But Xiong Xin'er is the king of the world, you led the princes to the princes." Xiang Bo stomped his feet and said, "Although there is no real power, if Xiong Xiner issues an edict and defames you as a rebel minister, the princes and Xiang Kang's evil beasts can send troops to attack you with justification. At that time, even if you don't have to be afraid of these mobs, you will not be able to be a name for righteousness. Even if you win, it will be difficult for people to convince you."

Xiang Yu never cared about his reputation and did not react fiercely. Master Xiang was anxious and quickly stirred up the flames and said, "King, if you were not sure before, now you should see clearly what kind of clerk Xiong Xin'er is? It was our Xiang family who supported him to the throne. He dared not not thank our Xiang family, and colluded with Song Yi to try to deprive you of military power, and almost succeeded!"

"After the failure of the matter, you forgive him, but how can he thank you? Even though you knew that you were fighting with the tyrant Qin army in the Central Plains, Xiang Kang's little evil beast was scammered and scammers entered Guanzhong from Wuguan, he deliberately issued an order to declare that those who entered Guanzhong first were kings, and he was determined to support Xiang Kang's little evil beast against you, which made you not legitimately appoint the king if you made great contributions, and let Xiang Kang's little evil beast get a bargain."

"Your Majesty, you forgave him again in this matter. Not only did you not care about him, but you also led the princes to respect him as the co-lord of the world. But how could he repay you? He actually issued a blood edict to Xiang Kang's little evil beast, so that Xiang Kang's little evil beast would contact the princes of the world to harm you. Again and again, do you want to forgive Xiong Xin for the third time?!"

Xiang Bobian's ability is mediocre, but the ability to fan the flames is hard for ordinary people. After hearing his instigation, he recalled Xiong Xin's various ungratefulness - it was indeed ungratefulness. Xiang Yu's face suddenly became gloomy. After a moment of thinking, Xiang Yu also ordered: "Come Cao Ju and Yafu to see me immediately."

"Good nephew, wait." Xiang Bo quickly stopped him and said, "Uncle Ji thinks that if you want to call them to discuss with me, there is no need for you. They will never give you any good ideas."

"Why?" Xiang Yu asked in confusion.

"You are so nice nephew, you forgot that it was Xiong Xin'er who was the father of Ya who opposed the public in front of your second uncle and encouraged our Xiang family to support us?" Xiang Bo asked in a verbal manner, and said, "Now, you are talking to him about matters related to Xiong Xin'er. How could he not help Xiong Xiner? How could he agree to you, you do something that is not good for Xiong Xiner, and slap him in the mouth by yourself?"

After casually putting a shit basin on Old Man Fan, Master Xiang continued, "As for Sima Cao, he is loyal to you, your nephew, but he is too unintentional in his work. Everything is always followed by Ya's father's mercy. What Ya's father said to him is usually more effective than what you said to him. Haven't you noticed this yet?"

Xiang Yu's face became more gloomy, and Xiang Boze advised with great thought: "Nephew, Xiong Xin's child is so ungrateful, so you must not stay. Keep him. No one can resist you under his banner. He may suddenly stab you in the back as before. Instead of doing this, it is better to make a quick decision and kill him directly, so that he can do it once and for all, and there will be no disaster."

Xiang Yu nodded slowly and asked again: "In your opinion, should we destroy him? Or should we directly execute him?"

In order not to give Xiong Xin a chance to help Xiang Kang kill him, Xiang Bo really wanted to suggest that Xiang Yu cut Xiong Xin directly with a knife. However, Xiang Bo could see that Xiang Yu was not determined and had not really made up his mind to kill Xiong Xin directly. So he gritted his teeth and said, "Nephew, I, Uncle Ji, have something I have never dared to tell you. Some time ago, when I was in charge of interrogating Xiong Xin'er's nearby palace maid, someone among them explained that Xiong Xiner heard that you were shot in an arrow in your right eye, not only was he so happy that he applauded, but he also repeatedly asked her if you would be seriously injured and die? Later..., and later...."

"What else did he do later? Say it directly!" Xiang Yu shouted with a deep blue.

"Later, you returned to Pengcheng. After Xiong Xin saw your appearance, he returned to the back garden. He did another thing." Xiang Bo peeked at Xiang Yu's expression and said carefully: "He grabbed a turtle with his own hands, blinded the turtle's left eye, and laughed happily at the turtle for a long time - nephew, do you know what this means?"

"What does it mean?" Xiang Yuli asked.

"Nephew, why don't you understand?" Xiang Bo replied with a wry smile: "Nephew, you are the King of Western Chu. Unfortunately, you are blind in your right eye when you are shot. The two words "Nephew" are homophonic with the turtle. Xiong Xin's son deliberately blinded the turtle's left eye. What does it mean? "

Before Xiang Bo finished speaking, the desk in front of Xiang Yu had already flew into the air, but Xiang Yu's anger did not calm down. He pulled out the sword with a clang, rushed out of the hall quickly, and shouted with a dark face: "Prepare a horse for me!"

Fearing that Xiang Yu had any mistakes in his rage, Xiang Bo of course quickly followed. As Xiang Yu slapped the horse and rushed to Xiong Xin's palace gate, Xiang Bo also spoke in person, shouted back the palace guards who came to stop him, forcing the guards to open the palace gate immediately and led Xiang Yu to see Xiong Xin directly. Then, when Xiang Yu rushed into Xiong Xin's bedroom quickly, the unlucky Chu Yi Emperor Xiong Xin had just woken up by the sound of footsteps, and had just opened his eyes while yawning, and a sharp sword had already stabbed as his chest...

"Zhu Zi! How dare you insult me ​​like this?!"

The long-depressed roar almost broke through Xiong's eardrums. The sharp sword passed through his chest and directly penetrated Xiong Xin's chest and back. With the faint light of candlelight, Xiong Xin only saw Xiang Yu's hideous face and the fierce green light shot out of his one-eyed eyes. Then as soon as his mouth opened, blood was already sprayed out from his mouth. He opened his mouth wide and twitched and died unjustly. He didn't understand why Xiang Yu was so fierce that he killed the monarch himself?

"Murdered-!"

"Brother--!"

The concubine who was serving in bed first screamed, then Xiang Xiang, the guard who had just arrived, screamed in disbelief. The other guards were even more in chaos. Only Master Xiang Bo Xiang looked relaxed, and a grin smile appeared quietly at the corner of his mouth, and he said to himself: "Little Master, do you dare to kill me for Xiang Kang Xiaoxianzun?"

After laughing secretly, Master Xiang, who had not eaten dinner, still had a few rants in his stomach. This also made Master Xiang's hatred for Xiong Xin deepen a little more - what would it be if Master Xiang dared to starve if he was not guilty and deserved to die?

…………

It was still early the next morning that Cao Ju, Fan Zeng, Kuai Che and others learned about Xiang Yu's killing Xiong Xin with their own hands. Shocked, Fan Zeng didn't even wear shoes and ran into the palace barefoot to check the situation. But it was too late. Xiong Xin, the King of Chu whom he urged Xiang Liang to support, had turned into a cold body and lay on the ground. Xiang Yu sat aside with a blue face, shouting at Cao Ju who was careful to come forward to inquire about the situation, asking Cao Ju to care about his idiots.

Old Man Fan stood in front of Xiong Xin's corpse for a long time without saying a word. Finally, Kuai Che came forward and whispered: "Father Ya, it's too late to say anything now. Block the news. To the outside world, I will say that Emperor Yi died of a violent illness. I will bury him with the ritual of the emperor and try my best to win back the hearts of the people."

Old Man Fan nodded dejectedly, as if he had suddenly become a few years older, and he muttered in a low voice, "Now, I finally fulfilled the wish of the little traitor."

The fire could not be kept in the paper. Although the insiders were banned, regardless of how Old Man Fan and Cao Ju and others buried Xiong Xin, they could not stop the news of Xiang Yu's own monarchy from quietly spreading inside and outside Pengcheng. What made Old Man Fan and Cao Ju and others helpless was that although Kuai Che repeatedly advised him and carefully analyzed the pros and cons, and urged Xiang Yu to let Jing Jia, a member of the Chu royal family, inherit the position of Emperor Yi and try his best to win back the hearts of the people, Xiang Yu did not want another layer of restraint on his head and insisted on not obeying.

Finally, Xiang Yu said directly impatiently: "No need to support the common ruler of the world. When I wipe out the princes who refuse to surrender, I will be the common ruler of the world! Your rewards will be inevitable at that time!"

Kuai Che did not dare to persuade him again. After he returned to his residence that day, his servant handed over a bamboo slip to him, saying that it was left by his friend An Qisheng when he came to say goodbye. Kuai Che took it and saw that there was only one line of words on the bamboo slip - hopeless. I left, so you can do it yourself.

Kuai Che smiled bitterly and whispered for a while: "It may not be possible. King Mu of Chu and King Huiwen of Zhao had killed the king, and they will eventually be a hero. If the King of Western Chu can have the same ability as theirs, it is not certain who will belong to the world in the future."
