Chapter 65

Liu Xiang was arrogant and domineering, and Wang Lei suddenly became angry and wanted to leave on the spot.

However, his face was clear and he suppressed his anger and bowed his hands and said, "Report to your Highness, Yan Liang and Wen Chou led his army into Zhongshan Kingdom, which was fierce and terrifying. The 13 counties of Zhongshan Kingdom, and the county magistrates of each county all hoped to surrender, but Wuji County and Xinshi County swear to never surrender. It is not easy to resist the enemy. At present, all the forces in the county are used to strengthen defense and increase the combat effectiveness of soldiers, and there is no spare money to support the singer."

He stood up and walked to the center of the hall, pointed to the wine and meat on the desk, and said seriously: "To be honest, the wine and meat on the desk are purchased with only a small amount of money left in the treasury. Wuji County has already ended its end and has no extra money."

The Prime Minister of Zhongshan snorted and said, "Who is the one who blames Wuji County for being poor? Of course, it is your county magistrate. If you have outstanding abilities, you will not even have a few singers."

The Prime Minister was Wang Lei's immediate superior. As soon as he spoke, the atmosphere changed suddenly.

Wang Lei replied: "The war is ruthless. If Yuan Shao had not launched a war, Wuji County would not have been like this. Because of Yan Liang's invasion, Wuji County had been used to purchase armor and weapons. This is the reason for poverty. If the Prime Minister of the State can lead his army to block Yan Liang's army, I, Wuji County, would not have been like this."

"You... are rude!"

The Prime Minister of Zhongshan's face turned red and he was angry.

The county magistrate in front of him is so brave.

Wang Lei took a deep breath and said lightly: "The humble position is just a fact that he dare not be rude. When Yan Liang's army enters the country, Wuji County may be compromised at any time. It is really inappropriate for His Highness, the Prime Minister of Zhongshan, to watch singing and dancing. The Prime Minister is a ruling official of Zhongshan State appointed by the emperor. He is responsible for the safety of thousands of people and also takes into account the duties of assisting His Highness, the Prime Minister of Zhongshan. His Highness, the Lord made a mistake, and the Lord did not advise and correct it, but helped the evildoer. Wang Lei did not agree with this."

"You... are bold!"

The Prime Minister trembled and felt even more embarrassed.

He wanted to chop Wang Lei's head, this kid was too arrogant.

Liu Xiang looked ugly and was very unhappy.

Guo Jia sat behind with a smile, looking like he was watching the show.

At this time, Rencheng King Liu Tuo said, "My nephew, I have to congratulate you."

"Oh, where does the joy come from?" Liu Xiang asked.

Liu Tuo shook his sleeves and said with a smile: "My nephew, look at my Hejian Kingdom, Yan Liang and Wen Chou led their troops into the country. No one in each county stood up to resist and surrendered to Yuan Shao. On the other hand, the nephew, who had a loyal person like Wang County Magistrate, wasn't it a joy to have a loyal person under Zhongshan Kingdom? Wang County Magistrate spoke frankly and had noble integrity, which was also admirable. I am envious of such a talent!"

At this moment, Liu Xiang turned angry and became happy again.

What Liu Xiang cares about is losing face in front of Liu Tuo. Liu Tuo took the initiative to praise him and gave Liu Xiang a step, so the anger in Liu Xiang's heart also dissipated.

Unfortunately, the anger of the Prime Minister of Zhongshan is still there.

Wang Lei returned to his seat and the banquet continued.

It didn't take long, and a burst of rapid footsteps came from outside the hall.

A soldier ran to Wang Lei and whispered. After hearing this, Wang Lei waved his hand to let the soldiers leave, then stood up and said, "Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Yan Liang and Wen Chou's army have left Lunu County and are coming to Wuji County. Beiyi must return to the barracks immediately and command the soldiers to welcome the enemy. Beiyi cannot entertain the two of His Highnesses anymore, please forgive me."

Liu Xiang waved his hand and said, "Go down, go down!"

The prince of Zhongshan Kingdom turned his eyes and interrupted, "Your Highness, Wuji County is the last checkpoint of Zhongshan Kingdom. If Wuji County fails, we can only go south to Julu County to hide. This battle is crucial. Beizhi believes that the two highnesses must check in person. It is better, the two highnesses and the magistrate Wang go to the military camp together to assist the magistrate Wang to formulate policies to avoid making mistakes."

Wang Lei's expression changed. He looked up and saw that the Prime Minister of Zhongshan was proud.

Liu Xiang felt that the Prime Minister's advice was good, and he said with a smile: "Don't worry, magistrate Wang County, I will not interfere in the war in Wuji County, I just watched from the sidelines. After withdrawing the banquet, we will go to the military camp together."

Wang Lei's mouth twitched, suppressing his murderous intention.

This prime minister of Zhongshan is really a messing stick, I want to die so hard.

The villain is always sad!

This person is undoubtedly a disgusting villain.

Wang Lei could not refuse and said, "Since your highness is willing, please follow me to the military camp." The group began to prepare. Soon, Wang Lei and Guo Jia took Liu Xiang, Liu Tuo and some officials to go, while the rest returned to the inn. The military camp was outside the city. On the way to go, Wang Lei and Guo Jia were in a carriage.

Wang Lei shrugged and said helplessly: "You are filial piety, it is really disgusting for those who are restricted. If they had known this, they would have cut off their way to Wuji County and let them be caught by Yan Liang and Wen Chou."

Guo Jia smiled slightly and said, "Lord, everything has advantages and disadvantages. We have saved the Rencheng King and Zhongshan King. Promoting this matter will be of great help to the lord's reputation. But how to make them obedient depends on the lord's methods."

Wang Lei rolled his eyes and thought to himself that this matter is not simple.

When he arrived outside the military camp, the carriage stopped.

Seeing this, the prime minister of Zhongshan frowned and shouted loudly: "Mr. Wang County Magistrate, Zhongshan King and Hejian King have come to the military camp. Can't you drive a carriage into the military camp? Let the soldiers at the door retreat and let the carriage into the military camp."

He couldn't stand Wang Lei and started to provoke him again.

Liu Xiang trusted the Prime Minister very much, and he was unwilling to get off the carriage. He lifted up the curtains of the carriage and ordered without doubt: "Mr. Wang, time is urgent, please enter the military camp."

Wang Lei shook his head and said, "Your Highness, you can only enter the military camp after getting off the carriage."

"Um……"

Liu Xiangyi frowned, and a hint of unpleasantness flashed across his chubby face.

Wang Lei snorted in his heart. He did not take Liu Xiang seriously and said lightly: "During Emperor Wen, because of the fierceness of the Huns, he personally went to inspect the military camp. The emperor arrived outside the camp where Zhou Yafu was stationed. The front army arrived, but was stopped outside the camp. Even though the vanguard soldiers told the guards who were guarding the gate that the emperor came to express their condolences, the commander of the military gate refused on the grounds that "the army only listened to Zhou Yafu's orders and did not listen to the emperor's orders, which made it difficult for the emperor's convoy to advance."

"Emperor Wen arrived, and the envoy took the Emperor's Talisman to inform him, and Zhou Yafu opened the gate to greet him."

"I thought the carriage could enter, but the guards at the garrison told Emperor Wen's entourage, saying, 'Zhou Yafu ordered the military camp not to rush,' and stopped a large number of carriages. Emperor Wen, the king of the country, was not only not angry after hearing the words of the soldiers guarding the camp, but he happily agreed with Zhou Yafu's decision and praised such a military camp as the real military camp."

After a pause, Wang Lei said lightly: "Emperor Wen is the most respectful country, and he can still follow the rules of the military camp. Could it be that His Highness, King Zhongshan, does not follow it? I know that His Highness, King Zhongshan, is broad-minded and can listen to advice, but is just misled by the people below."

His eyes glanced at the Prime Minister of Zhongshan.

In an instant, the Prime Minister's face was burning.

The Prime Minister scolded Wang Lei for being cunning and actually threatened Emperor Wen. With such words, let alone a Han sect king like Zhongshan, even if the emperor comes in person, he would not dare to refute it.

The King of Zhongshan Liu Xiang glared at the Prime Minister and had to get off the carriage obediently. He walked slowly and smiled and said, "Mr. Wang said very well, let's lead the way!" Then, Liu Tuo also got off the carriage.

Soon, everyone got off the carriage and headed for the Central Army's tent.
