Chapter 65 Jiang Zhong's Debate (1)

When Jiang Yulu, Jiang Yan, Xiang Shaofei and others chased to the ancient Chaliang Road, Jiang Hongdie had not left yet. She stood in the tea pavilion, staring at the Anlu Canal that had been rushing for years in the distance, staring blankly. The white crane stood quietly on the side, with its long beak swaying from time to time with its head.

"Red Butterfly." Yulu saw Jiang Hongdie from afar, shouted, and when he ran closer, he asked anxiously: "Red Butterfly, where is the person?"

Jiang Hongdie slowly turned her head, did not answer the second prince's question, and asked, "Who is that Chen Renzhong?"

Jiang Yulu frowned and said, "The Grand Tutor of Liang State, Mr. Fan's Mansion, have you chased them?"

Jiang Hongdie shook her head and said to herself: "Impossible, it's impossible that it's him. He has been buried in the belly of a fish, and he has no bones..." He recalled something and shook his head and continued: "Yes, he is just a poor worm who even wants to read books secretly. How dare he punch me? It's not him!"

Jiang Yan said: "My ninth sister, did you hear what the second brother asked you? Did Princess Feihuang and Chen Renzhong pass by here just now?"

Jiang Hongdie walked out of the pavilion, passed by Jiang Yulu and Jiang Yan, and said lightly: "You two can go back, you can't catch up."

Jiang Yulu asked: "Have you seen them?"

“See.”

"Then-" Jiang Yulu suppressed his anger and said, "Did you let them go?"

Jiang Hongdie looked at Jiang Yulu and said, "A Feihuang Princess, a Talented Star, and a group of Five Sound Guards. Why can I stop them?"

"When you don't intercept Princess Feihuang, how can you explain to your father when you go back?"

Jiang Hongdie said, "You can get a little earlier, why is this? I will explain to my father truthfully. As for how you explain, I can't control it." After Jiang Hongdie said that, he summoned He and drove his own crane back to Chang'an.

Jiang Yan looked at Jiang Yulu and asked, "Second brother, what should we do now?"

Jiang Yulu remained silent. After a while, he said, "Shaofei, continue to lead the Imperial Guard to chase him. Fifth brother, let's go back and reply to the order."

Jiang Yan nodded, turned his head and said, "Black Robe, go with the Major General."

The black robe nodded.

Jiang Yulu and Jiang Yanyuan returned, Jiang Yan looked puzzled and said, "There seems something is wrong with the Red Butterfly today."

Jiang Yulu had a calm face and said nothing. In order to avoid meeting Yang Qice and others again on the way back to the city, Jiang Yulu led a team to go around the path.

Xiang Shaofei rushed all the way and led the imperial guards to continue chasing Princess Feihuang. Although he himself knew that the pursuit had been declared a failure, the two princes had to run for the sake of their work, in order to get in vain.

In the early morning of the second day, Xiang Shaofei had already led his team to run for nearly 500 miles. At this time, he was already in a state of scattered people. Fortunately, he finally arrived at the border between Jiang and Liang. However, what was waiting for him here was not Chen Renzhong or Princess Feihuang, but the three thousand black armored troops led by General Shi Dangguan of Liang State and six great envoys from Fan Mansion.

"Who is here? Let's sign up!" Shi Dangguan Dangkong shouted. Xiang Shaofei and the imperial guards led by him were shocked and dared not take a step forward.

Xiang Shaofei clasped his fists and said, "Young general Xiang Shaofei, the eldest son of Xiang Chaohai, the general of Jiang Guo, is he the general of Shi Dangguan?"

When Shi Dangguan heard that he was the son of an old friend, his face calmed down and said, "It turns out that he is General Xiang's son. He looks pretty and is not bad. I wonder what General Xiang is doing here?"

Xiang Shaofei said: "The young general was ordered to escort Taifu Chen and Princess Feihuang back to Liang. Now the two have arrived safely. The young general's mission is completed, so he will have to go back to Chang'an to report his life."

Shi Dangguan nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work, General Xiang, please come back and bring me a sentence for General Xiang: 'Your order is hard to disobey, I don't blame you. When you meet on the battlefield, you don't have to be polite!"

Xiang Shaofei said: "I will bring my words to the general and say goodbye."

"Go slowly."

After Xiang Shaofei left, a side general asked, "General, what is the purpose of Grand Tutor Chen asking you to say these words? I am stupid and can't understand?"

Shi Dangguan glanced at the side general and said, "How can you guess the master's trick?"

The side general said, "Yes. The last general also heard that the prince was able to return to the country safely this time, all because of the resourcefulness of the Taifu, he kept the Emperor Jiang and his delegation cleanly."

Shi Dangguan nodded and said, "Chen Tong of Chen State and Fang Jia of Jiang State, what prestige and reputation are they? But they both have no choice but to deal with our Taifu Chen, hehe, when our Taifu Chen has also grown a beard, he might become a human race. At that time, we Daliang, wouldn't there be one big guy?"

The general did not stop and hesitated, "I heard that Jiang Guofang is going to accept Taifu Chen as a closed disciple, but Taifu thought about Daliang and came back in time."

Shi Dangguan smiled on his face, his expression not as passionate and heroic as before, but he had a layer of restrained determination and said, "Anyway, you have to remember one thing, that is, from today on, even if Grand Tutor Chen asked me to attack thousands of miles and assassinate the Emperor of Chen, I would not frown."

The side general felt something and said excitedly: "The last general understands!"

That night, Yang Qice and Xiang Qi escorted Fan Baotong and others back to Liang State, but the hundred elite cavalry brought by Yang and Xiang were stopped by Shi Dangguan and failed to enter the country, so they had to return to Jiang as the same route.

At this point, Prince Xuanlin, Grand Tutor Chen, Grand Secretary Qin, Young Master Baotong and others all returned safely. Shi Dangguan was very happy and led everyone back to the border camp, took a short rest, and then set off for the capital.

Jiang Zhong and Princess Feihuang had already arrived in Luzhou. As soon as they entered the city, Princess Hongyu personally took it to the palace. The upright and worried Emperor Liang and the ministers felt relieved when they saw the Taifu return. They also learned that the Taifu actually brought the little princess from Taihua City to Luzhou together, and they were even more energetic. Although it was inconvenient to say more in person, everyone was amazed at the unpredictable methods of Chen Taifu. Seeing Jiang Zhong appear side by side with the demon princess, their expressions were wonderful.

Prince Xuanlin was surprised and left his seat to meet Jiang Zhong, saying, "The Grand Tutor returns safely, Xuanlin will be relieved."

Jiang Zhong nodded to him, with a style of a commander. All the ministers in the field were secretly aware of it. Then Jiang Zhong and Yun Feihuang paid homage to Emperor Liang. Emperor Liang could not miss it. Then he showed the manifesto sent by Chen Daolue to Jiang Zhong. The manifesto briefly stated the deeds of Jiang Zhong using the invitation of Yuewen to destroy the Eastern Palace of Chen. Later, he said: "I am the general who has inherited the order of the emperor and was ordered to capture the thief. He will advance eastward soon. Now he will command 500,000 troops and 500 generals. He wants to hunt Xia Ye with His Majesty Liang and discuss the alliance with His Majesty Liang. Any Liang State is willing to hand over the thief leader Chen and ced 15 cities. It can stop the wrath of the emperor and avoid the disaster of the country. Otherwise, the army will be suppressed and the land will be difficult to keep. Fortunately, please do not hesitate. I will give you a reply."

After reading it, Jiang Zhong asked, "What do you think about Your Majesty?"

Emperor Liang said: "There is no conclusion yet."

Jiang Zhong looked back at the ministers and asked, "What do you guys think?"

Wherever Jiang Zhong's eyes went, except for a few, the rest bowed their heads and said nothing.

Jiang Zhong looked at Prince Xuanlin again, Liang Xuanlin said, "The State of Liang will never give up the Grand Tutor!" Before he could express his words, a minister continued, "The State of Chen has returned from great righteousness and is concerned about Daliang. I, Daliang, will never do anything to repay kindness and revenge. As for the city to be stolen, I think it is better to agree. Since ancient times, Chen State has far surpassed our country. Now Chen State has slaughtered Chen Daoliao as the commander, leading 500,000 people, and it is overwhelming. It is hard to defeat the situation. Only by cutting the city and paying for land is the only way to safeguard the city and paying for land."

Several other ministers responded: "Mr. Xue said very well."

Jiang Zhong looked at them in surprise, and suddenly heard Princess Hongyu snorting coldly, saying, "Chen Daolue is so humiliating, you can enjoy it. What you say and say is as good as you wish, which shocked me."

Lord Xue raised his hand to speak, and Princess Hongyu intercepted him, "Mr. Xue eats my Daliang salary, receives the kindness of my Majesty, and is supported by the people of Daliang, but he speaks such a country-less saying, "It is really a waste of a minister."

Xue Ji hurriedly threw himself into His Highness and said in fear: "The old minister is devoted to the country and does not want the people to suffer from the war. This is a reflection of the sun and the moon. I hope Your Majesty and the Princess will understand clearly."

Hongyu said: "Cutting cities and paying for land is to sell the country. How can we make a country?"

Xue Ji said: "The army of Chen is strong and our Liang State is invincible. This is the truth, not the old minister's remarks. Moreover, the princess is young, and I don't know the bad reputation of Chen Dao. When Chen destroyed Qi, Qi was killed in three months. Chen Daoluo launched a large-scale killing and massacred the city at will. There were more than one million innocent people killed or injured? Today, our Liang State is not as good as the Qi State of the year, and today's Chen State is even better than the Chen State of the year, Princess."

Liang Hongyu looked angry and turned to Emperor Liang, called "Father". Emperor Liang waved his hand and said, "Don't be anxious, son, Xue Qing should get up too. Wait for me to ask Chen Qing."
