Wei is a small city between Yue and Chu.
It is located in a remote place.
In addition, although the city is under the rule of the Chu State, the Chu State has not specially arranged officers and soldiers to manage it.
This shows that it despises this place.
More than a hundred of us are guarding it.
The Seventh Princess and Yue arrived at the small town of Fuwei at nightfall.
There is no gate in Fuwei City.
The city wall is only more than three meters high.
It has been eroded by years of wind and rain and has long been beyond recognition.
The city wall is covered with vines and moss, which is a desolate scene.
When I came to the city along the bumpy main road, I saw that the scale of this small town was really small.
There was no building with more than two floors in the whole city.
Most of the houses were in dilapidated condition.
There were only a few pedestrians on both sides of the street.
It’s rare to see a team with so many of us.
Some passers-by stopped and looked at us curiously.
We found two clean inns in the center of the small town.
In fact, these were the only inns in the small town.
The remaining beds in the two inns combined were less than twenty, and most of the soldiers still had to camp outside.
Ju Wu's rebellion and death have made me the veritable supreme commander of this bride-to-be team.
I decided to rest in this small town for a while and set out again tomorrow afternoon, so that my soldiers can get enough rest.
Although we abandoned our carriages and horse baggage at Yunluo Mountain, we brought out all the truly valuable dowries.
Apart from the casualties of soldiers, our losses were not too heavy.
That night I specially set up fifteen tables of sumptuous banquets to reward these soldiers who risked their lives to fight through the Yunluoshan Company grounds.
These soldiers have begun to believe in me, and I also know how to win people's hearts at the right time.
A few glasses of wine and a few encouraging words can make each of them feel my care.
Considering that the soldiers were already exhausted, the banquet did not last too long tonight.
The best room was reserved for the Seventh Princess and Yue.
I stayed in the room on her left and went back to take a hot bath.
Just as he was about to have a rest, he heard a gentle knock on the door.
He opened the door and saw Yu Yue standing quietly outside the door in a warrior uniform, with a faint smile on her pretty face and looking at her with affectionate eyes.
Holding me.
Behind her was Qi Yan, who was also dressed in men's clothing.
I looked outside and saw that Kao Lie, who was patrolling the corridor, had turned his face away.
This kid had most likely noticed the subtle relationship between me and Yue, and was just pretending to be stupid.
I smiled and made an invitation, but Yu Yue shook her head and whispered, "Would you like to go for a walk with me?"
I nodded, explained to Kaolie, and left the inn with Yue.
The dark night sky is filled with gem-like stars, and the huge Milky Way passes through the deep and vast night sky, pouring down from above our heads.
Like a waterfall hanging across the sky, the kind and crystal clear stars.
Just like water droplets splashing from a waterfall.
The cool night breeze of autumn blew by, and I thought of Yue who was about to leave me.
I felt an unspeakable sadness in my heart.
:In time, we have arrived in front of the city wall of Fuwei.
I walked up the stairs of i, and I followed Yu Yue up the stairs.
Qi Yan did not follow.

She seemed to understand a lot about what happened between Yu Yue and me, and knew when to avoid it.
There is only one road above the city wall for two people to walk side by side.
There was no one guarding the entire city wall.
Yu Yue held the arrow stack on the turret with both hands and looked towards the east.
Tears welled up in her beautiful eyes, and she said softly: "We can no longer see the country of Yue here."
I nodded and stretched out my hand to grab her catkins: "Qiqi, why do you have to marry Prince Zhao for the sake of your father's royal ambition, is it worth sacrificing your life's happiness?"
: Ignorant child, in public In the eyes of my ministers and the people, I am a pampered princess, but I do everything based on my own principles.
"She bravely jumped into my arms and hugged my body tightly: "If I were just an ordinary woman, I would definitely run away with you without hesitation, go to a place where no one can find me, and be happy.
"Your wife washes and cooks for you, and gives birth to children for you, but I can't" "The people of Chu State explained that the people of Yue State have been traumatized by the war, how can I bear the heart to put them into misery again because of myself?"
I hugged Yu Yue's delicate body tightly, as if I wanted to integrate her delicate body into my body.
Yuyue's delicate hands pulled open my belt and teased mine.
I picked up her delicate body and squeezed her in the dark corner of the turret.
I kissed her lips hard and untied her breasts with my big hands.
Robes.
Every day, every moment, okay?”
I nodded, squeezed her delicate body hard, and Yuyue's sad and sad moans entered her narrow body.
Dark Yuyue's beautiful eyes burst out with light full of love like stars.
This The light becomes hotter and brighter under our burning After a day and night of rest, all the soldiers had high morale.
I purchased ten carriages in the city and some necessary daily necessities.
One hundred and thirty-five soldiers escorted the carriages out of the west gate of the surrounding town and continued towards the capital of Ying.
Ge Feng said goodbye to me in front of the city gate.
After fighting side by side for many times, I also developed a lot of affection for Ge Feng, and I said with gratitude: "Without Brother Ge's help this time, I'm afraid it would be difficult for us to get out of Yunluo Mountain smoothly."
Ge Feng smiled and said: "It all depends on Commander Lu's command.
I don't dare to be greedy for credit."
I laughed out loud: "Brother Ge, why don't you go to Yingdu with me?"
Ge Feng shook his head and said: "Now that we have entered the territory of Chu State, the road ahead is very smooth.
There must be no danger.
Commander Lu can handle everything.
Besides, King Chang Si is still waiting for me to kill him. , I can’t delay too long.”
I cupped my fist at Ge Feng and said, "Since Brother Ge has decided to leave, I can't force him to stay.
If we are reunited by fate in the future, I, Lu Xiaogui, will definitely treat Brother Ge to a drink to express my gratitude."
"Commander Lu is so polite.
Serving the king and princess is what I should do.
Commander Lu must pass through Licheng when he comes back.
I'm waiting to celebrate for you."
"must Ge Feng bowed his hand to me, raised his whip and galloped eastwards.
I looked at Ge Feng's retreating figure, and a knowing smile appeared on my lips.
Entering the territory of Chu State, the road suddenly became much wider and smoother.
Chu State has a vast territory and a large population.
Although it was invaded by Wu State not long ago and the country was almost destroyed.
Even the corpse of the king was dug up by Wu Zixu and whipped in public, but it still recovered slowly.
Lost vitality.
The reason why Chu and Yue can maintain the current good relationship is also related to their common experience of humiliation.
However, as far as I know, after the Chu State became stronger, the Yue State was destroyed by King Wei of Chu.
It seems that the so-called friendship between the countries was the political demand of a specific period.

Kao Lie chased me and reported in a low voice: "Not far ahead is Baigong City.
Do we want to enter the city tonight?"
"Baigong City" Kao Lie explained: "Baigong City is the gateway from Chu to Wu.
The person currently stationed there is Gongzi Sheng, the son of Prince Jian of Chu."
Only then did I think of the grudge between Prince Jian and King Ping of Chu in history.
When King Ping of Chu was in power, he arranged a marriage between Prince Jian and Meng Ying, the sister of Duke Ai of the Qin State, but later he became greedy for Meng Ying's beauty. , under the instigation of his minister Fei Wuji, he simply Meng Ying took it as his own, and pretended to be Meng Ying, a girl from Qin who was brought as a dowry, and married Prince Jian.
Later, King Chu Ping also made Meng Ying pregnant and gave birth to King Chu Zhao.
In order to cover up this scandal, Chu Ping King Zhao did not hesitate to frame Prince Jian and Wu She, but Prince Jian got the news and ran away.
But Wu She's family was almost wiped out, and only Wu Zixu, the current Prime Minister of Wu State, escaped.
This past grudge almost led to a tragedy that destroyed the country.
In order to take revenge, Wu Zixu borrowed Wu soldiers to attack Chu.
He went straight to Yingdu, the capital of Chu, dug up the tomb of King Ping of Chu, whipped his body, and forced King Zhao of Chu to panic.
After fleeing, the people of Chu State fell into misery for more than ten years.
So far, Chu State has not fully recovered its vitality.
I whispered: "Young Master Sheng is the son of Prince Jian and that girl from the Palace of Qin."
Kao Lie couldn't help laughing.
After a long time, he stopped laughing and said, "This matter has been spread all over the world for a long time.
However, the people of Chu were very scrupulous about this matter.
They found it a great shame and humiliation.
King Ping of Chu even wanted to rob his own daughter-in-law." , he deserved to be whipped to death by Wu Zixu.”
I nodded.
In my impression, it seems that Gongzi Sheng had the experience of treason later, and knowing that Bai Gong was not a kind person, he whispered: "It is better to do less than to do more.
Let's bypass Baigong City and go directly to Yingdu. " Kao Lie got my order and turned around to order the soldiers to continue moving forward.
Not long after the order was issued, we saw dust flying ahead, and a cavalry team of about 200 people came towards us.
Judging from the flags flying in their team, they should be soldiers and horses belonging to Baigong City.
I signaled to my men not to act rashly, and arranged themselves in formation to wait for the opponent's arrival.
The cavalry stopped twenty meters away from us.
A young general with a pale face came towards me on horseback alone.
He said loudly: "Are you coming to escort the seventh princess of Yue?"
I gave him a polite fist pump.
He responded: "The envoy Lu Xiaogui from Xia Yue Kingdom made a special trip to escort Her Royal Highness the Seventh Princess to Chu to consummate her marriage."
A faint smile appeared on the general's face that year.
He cupped his fists and said in return: "I am Xiong Yiliao, a general under Duke Bai.
On Duke Bai's order, I came here to welcome the Seventh Princess of Yue Kingdom to rest in the city."
I was slightly startled.
I didn’t expect that the information about Gongzi Sheng was very well-informed.
This man’s surname was Xiong, which was the same as the king of Chu.
It seemed that his status must be extraordinary.
I smiled and said, “General Xiong.
We have accepted Gong Bai’s wishes.
But the princess's wedding is coming.
We must rush to Yingdu as soon as possible, and we must not delay the wedding of the king and the princess. " Xiong Yiliao laughed loudly and said: "General Lu, don't worry.
It's only five days away from the new capital.
Even if you delay it for one night, you won't miss the wedding date.
As the nephew of King Zhao, how can he not fulfill his friendship as a landlord?"

It’s not too rude, General Lu, please don’t embarrass me.”
I nodded and said, "General Xiong, please wait a moment.
I'll ask the princess what she wants."
"I'll be waiting here."
It's better to go to Baigong City to rest in the evening. " I whispered: "Can Young Master Sheng be trusted?"
Aagt, besides, he is the nephew of King Chu Zhao, so it would be too unkind for me not to accept his invitation.
"Yu Yue is the princess of the Yue Kingdom after all.
When dealing with such important matters, she has a clear mind and is very calm.
She has completely abandoned the temperament of the unruly girl in the past.
This kind of overall view is not something ordinary girls can have.
When Xiong Yiliao learned that Yue had agreed to enter the city, he immediately asked his two hundred cavalry to turn their horses and lead the way.
He personally accompanied me and rode alongside me.
Xiong Yiliao smiled and said, "I can see that your journey has not been smooth sailing."
Our carriages and horses were all purchased in the small town of Fuwei.
From the structural characteristics of the carriages, it can be seen that they are civilian vehicles from the Chu region, so Xiong Yiliao said this.
I smiled calmly and said, "I was attacked by a group of bandits in Yunluo Mountain."
Xiong Yiliao exclaimed: "Is the princess frightened?"
"General Xiong, don't worry.
The princess is safe and sound, otherwise I wouldn't have dared to escort her here.
However, the carriage, horses and part of the dowry were lost in the chaos."
Xiong Yiliao laughed and whispered: "As long as the princess is fine, it will be fine."
During the conversation, they had already arrived in front of Baigong City.
Two hundred cavalrymen brought by Xiong Yiliao were divided into two rows on the left and right, standing opposite each other on both sides of the road paved with bluestone.
Each of them had bright armor, and the bronze armor gave off a deep reflection under the sunlight. .
I secretly admired that this Young Master Sheng seemed to be the overlord of the party.
Just by looking at the fierce appearance of the 200 welcome warriors under him, we knew that his strength was extraordinary.
Looking up at Baigong City from my position, I saw that the walls of Baigong City were high and wide, and the moat in front was wide.
It was incomparable with the size of the small city of Fuwei.
The sound of drums rang in my ears, and I saw a golden armored cavalry of about fifty people.
The team galloped out of the city gate.
I was subconsciously stimulated by the brilliant reflection of the golden armored cavalry and closed my eyes.
Damn it, this cavalry is too ostentatious.
Even if Chu State has a lot of gold, there is no need to show off like this
