Chapter 228 How can I prove that I only ate one bowl of noodles!
Jingchou's eyes narrowed: "Sister-in-law?"
"Send Lord Chang'an's sister-in-law back to Daqin?"
Jing Li said in surprise: "Qu's kidnapped Chang’an Jun’s sister-in-law?”
Jingchou shook his head: “Impossible”
"Chang'an Jun only has one brother, and that is Qin Wangzheng!"
"Why does he, Qu, snatch away Qin Wangzheng's concubines?"
"Quickly send a message to Hui Shouchun, order The clansmen asked whether the Qu family was married to the Qin State!"
Jing Po immediately handed over: "Wei!"
Two days after the destruction of Anling City, the atmosphere within the Chu army was very strange.
The Qu family was obviously the hero of the city's seizure, but they didn't dare to take away the spoils inside the city, let alone talk and laugh out loud. Whenever they met people from other clans, they had to hold their tail between their legs and make excuses.
But Qu’s face was smiling, were they really smiling in their hearts?
They are very wronged!
It was Ying Chengyu’s choice not to attack us. What does it have to do with us?
I, Mrs. Qu, have done nothing wrong!
No matter how much our Qu family suffered in this battle, this city was conquered by our Qu family.
Why should we swallow our anger!
On the other side, Jingchou was even more furious.
“Bang!”
Slapping his hand on the table, Jingchou said angrily: “You thief Qu family, how dare you join forces with Qin to weaken our Jing family!”
< br>
Jingpo hurriedly asked: "Chief, what is going on?"
Jingchou handed the family letter to Jingpo and said in a deep voice: "The clan has found out."
"A few days ago The Qin State sent travelers to visit the Qu family with generous gifts. "
"The clan thought that the Qin State was just trying to persuade the Qu family to seek peace, just like our clan."
"But after several inquiries. I just learned that the King of Qin wants to accept one of the Qu girls as beauties and three of the Qu girls as betrothed men. He also wants to give a thousand war horses and a hundred catties of gold as betrothal gifts!”
Jing Li was stunned: "Qin Wangzheng is actually willing to give Qu the title of a beauty and the title of three beloved men?!"
This condition is not just as simple as four concubines, but also represents a huge Political expectations!
As long as any one of these four women can charm Ying Zheng's heart and let Ying Zheng make her the queen, then her heir can become the future King of Qin!
The future King of Qin is his grandson and nephew. Who can not be moved by this?
Who doesn’t want to be the next Wei Ran, the next Mi Chen?
Furthermore, Ying Zheng showed great sincerity in giving four concubines.
One Qu girl may be infertile, but four Qu girls can’t all be infertile, right?
Whenever one of the Qu girls gives birth to a child, they can adopt the most favored Qu girl as their son, which further increases the possibility that the next King of Qin will have Qu's blood flowing in his body!
Ying Zheng paid such a heavy gift, what kind of reward would Qu give?
Jingpo was furious: "No wonder my Jing family suffered a lot of losses in this battle, but Qu's family only lost a few hundred people."
"It turns out that the State of Qin has already joined forces with the Qu family!"
"The Qu family has probably informed the Qin Army of our army's falsehoods, and the Qin Army is also cooperating with the Qu family to weaken our clan."
" Chief, this battle can’t be fought, let’s withdraw our troops!”
Jingchou agreed very much with Jingpo’s words, and even realized something.
I would like to say that Jingshi and Ying Chengxi have no grudges. Why did Ying Chengxuan grab Jingshi’s explosive hammer?
Qu is behind the co-authorship!
Jingshi and Yingcheng have no grudges, but there are countless conflicts and contradictions between Jingshi and Qu.
It worked!
Everything is explained!
Jingchou suddenly stood up: "There is a villain behind this, how can we win this battle?"
"We must withdraw our troops!"
"But we cannot withdraw our troops in despair."
"Follow me to find Shangzhu Kingdom!"
Jingchou is certainly a The leader of the Jing clan, but what he does cannot exceed the limits of the rules.
If the Jing family withdraws its troops quietly, King Han of Chu can completely remove the official positions of the Jing family generals on charges of desertion.
Jing couldn't leave quietly, he had to leave openly!
A group of Jing family generals entered the Chinese army aggressively.
Xiang Yan, who was discussing with Qu Huan how to deal with conflicts in the army, frowned slightly and asked dissatisfiedly: "Jing Mo Ao, what does this mean?"
Xiang Yan was also very angry.
After the Qin army retreated, according to Xiang Yan's idea, they must pursue them one after another.
But it was because the internal conflicts in the Chu army had reached a point that they had to be resolved, Xiang Yan had no choice but to give up the pursuit and thought about how to deal with the internal conflicts in the army.
As a result, Jing is still making trouble now? !
Jingchou said in a deep voice: "Shangzhu Kingdom, it's not that I, the Jing family, don't want to serve the country, it's actually that there are collaborators and treasonous people in the army. If this war continues like this, we will definitely lose!" "
Xiang Yan asked solemnly: "What evidence did Jing Mo Ao find?"
Jing Chou scoffed: "Qu's behavior is cautious, how can he leave any trace for me? Are you looking for evidence? ”
Qu Huan was shocked, and immediately stood up and shouted angrily: "Jing Mo Ao is saying that my Qu family is collaborating with the enemy?" The four countries of Jiao, Zhou and Liao allied forces!"
"For five hundred years, I, the Qu family, have always been loyal and patriotic, sharing the king's worries."
"What right does Jing Mo Ao have to doubt me, the Qu family? Loyalty to Da Chu!"
Jing Chou looked directly at Qu Huan: "Qu Sima's words are true, but how can he explain the fact that he married his daughter to Qin Wang Zheng as a beauty during the war?"
Qu Huan:? ? ?
Is Mrs. Qu going to marry her daughter to be a beauty for King Qin?
Why don’t I, the patriarch, know this!
Qu Huan said firmly: "There is absolutely no such thing!"
"I know nothing about this."
"Jing Mo Ao, don't slander me!"
Qu Huan really knew nothing about Jing Chou's identification.
But for the Jing family, who had already received the news through other channels, they only thought that Qu Huan was pretending to be stupid!
Jingchou smiled coldly: "Know nothing?"
"Ha~ What a clueless person!"
"Then when Lord Chang'an of Qin State withdrew his troops, why did the Qu family not pursue him one after another, but instead sat back and watched Lord Chang'an escape from Anling City with only a hundred soldiers?"
Qu Huan explained seriously: "My captain believes that Chang'anju is cunning and must be deceitful!"
"And Chang'an Jun issued an order when he approached the city gate. It is very likely that there is an ambush waiting for him!" Jingchou asked back: "The ambush "
Qu Huan was stunned, and after a few breaths he said without confidence: "It hasn't been discovered yet."
Ying Chengyu did let the fortune teller play the semaphore.
But no matter which country's semaphore system it is applied to, the semaphore language is a mess, and Ying Chengyu did not prepare any ambush at all.
After the army withdrew from Dongcheng, there were indeed only a hundred soldiers following Ying Chengyu!
Where can Qu Huan go to find an ambush?
Can’t find it at all!
Jingchou laughed mockingly and looked at Xiang Yan: "I really have no evidence, but do you need evidence for what Qu did?"
"I, Jing, are indeed not good at catching thieves, but what happened here The Jing family will report the truth to the king and ask the king to find evidence of the Qu family's collaboration with the enemy!"
Xiang Yan sincerely advised: "Jing Mo Ao, don't fall for the Qin army's alienation plan!" br>
"Qu is also willing to take on more arduous tasks in the next war to show his loyalty to our great Chu!"
Jing Chou shook his head: "Jing is not I am willing to continue to consume my Jing family's troops to wait for Qu family to prove his loyalty."
"Jing's family withdraws from this battle!"
Xiang Yan stood up and asked in a deep voice: "The king originally did not want to send troops, but Jing Mo Ao clamored to send troops."
"Now Jing Mo Ao Why did you take the lead in retreating?"
Jingchou said calmly: "I made a mistake!"
"More than 20,000 of the Jing clan's heroes died in the battle! ”
"I cannot make the same mistake again and again, let alone let more sons and daughters die because of my mistakes!"
"After I return to the court, I will apologize to the king."
< br>Jingchou bowed his hands and said, "Goodbye!"
After saying that, Jingchou turned around and left without hesitation.
Xiang Yan quickly avoided the case and chased Jing Chou: "Jing Mo Ao!"
Lifting the curtain, Xiang Yan not only saw Jingchou, but also Zhaohuang, Zhaoyuan and other generals of the Zhao family.
Xiang Yan had a bad premonition in his heart: "Why are you generals here?"
Zhao Yuan and other generals all handed over their hands: "The last general heard the clan leader's order to retreat. I came here to inform Shangzhuguo.”
Zhao Yuan’s attitude is very clear.
We are not discussing with you whether to withdraw our troops, but we are informing you that we are withdrawing our troops!
Xiang Yan's heart suddenly shrank, and she asked solemnly: "Why!"
Zhaoyuan glanced at Qu Huan, then bowed his hands to Xiang Yan and saluted: "This is the order of the patriarch, we are just following orders. "
"The leader of the Zhao family has told the king about this matter and received his approval."
"It won't take long for the king's order to transfer our army. Arrive at the army."
"When Shangzhu Kingdom returns home, the Zhao clan leader will personally visit Shangzhu Kingdom."
Zhaoyuan's words did not put forward any valid information.
But Zhaoyuan’s eyes said everything.
Obviously, the Zhao family also found out the news that Qu's daughter was going to become the beauty of the King of Qin. She couldn't help but wonder whether Qu was secretly colluding with Qin and using Qin's sword to kill political opponents!
In addition to being suspicious of the Qu family, the generals of the Zhao family were also holding fire in their hearts.
Since Jing’s family got the most profit, why did they change their tactics in order to reduce Jing’s battle losses?
Jing's family has a lot of lucrative war profits, and Qu's family has the merit of being the first to come to the door.
What does the Zhao family have?
Zhao has nothing!
Is it just because I, the leader of the Zhao clan, did not go out with the army but sat in the rear to raise food and grass, that you are bullying my descendants like this? !
That's not fair!
The veins on Xiang Yan's temples bulged out, but he still suppressed his anger and sincerely persuaded: "So far in this battle, we, the great Chu, have the advantage."
"As long as we, the great Chu, cooperate sincerely and continue to attack, this battle will definitely be won." A lot has been gained.”
“It’s such a pity that Zhao is retreating!”
Zhao Yuan shook his head: “The clan leader has given the order, how can we not obey it?” br>
"And..." Zhaoyuan glanced at Qu Huan again: "No matter how much we gain from this battle, what does it have to do with my Zhao family?"
"May Shangzhu Kingdom triumph!"
With a final bow, the Zhao generals also strode away.
Further away, the generals of the Dou clan, Cheng clan, Sun clan and other clans also looked at Xiang Yan from a distance.
Obviously, they all had the intention to withdraw their troops, but they were afraid of being beheaded by Xiang Yan because of their relatively small clan strength, so they were hesitant to move forward.
Xiang Yan ignored them and turned to look at Qu Huan: "Qu Sima, what on earth is going on!"
Qu Huan said firmly: "Before Chang'an Jun withdrew his troops, he indeed loudly said that Anling City was his wedding gift to his sister-in-law."
"But I, the Qu family, have never colluded with the Qin State, let alone Marrying a daughter to the King of Qin is a matter of beauty!"
Xiang Yan frowned: "Could it be a descendant of the Qu family who made such a decision?"
Qu Huan did not hesitate. Shaking his head: "As the leader of the Qu clan, I am the only one who can decide on such a major matter."
"I have never given permission, no matter the main line or the collateral line, who dares to make such a decision?"< br>
"This is definitely a plan to alienate Lord Chang'an!"
As he spoke, Qu Ou quickly ran to Qu Huan's vicinity.
But seeing Xiang Yan there, Qu Ou immediately stopped and hesitated.
Qu Huan greeted loudly: "I, Mrs. Qu, have nothing to say to anyone. If there is anything you need to report, just tell me directly!"
Qu Ou quickly walked two steps to Qu Huan. In front of him, he first bowed his hands to Xiang Yan, then leaned close to Qu Huan and whispered: "A letter from the clan."
"The Lord Changping of the Qin State and the Young Master came to the clan with their war horses and treasures, intending to accept my Qu family's daughter as a beauty on behalf of the King of Qin."
Qu Huan's pupils were shaking: "When did this happen? "
"Why don't I know anything?"
Qu Ou said bitterly: "Jun Changping arrived in Shouchun only two days ago!"
