After being visited all the way, Xiang Ji finally arrived at Xiangyang, Liu Biao's hometown.
Looking at the noisy streets and the endless flow of people, Xiang Ji couldn't help but sigh. It is indeed a big city that has never suffered from war. This population is not comparable to that of Pengcheng.
As for the audience of Liu Biao's ministers, Xiang Ji didn't care.
The armistice is only temporary. These people will probably become their enemies in the future, so what is the use of showing goodwill now?
Are they planning to buy themselves double insurance?
It's just that Xiang Ji didn't know it clearly. For many civil and military officials in Jingzhou, the purpose of meeting Xiang Ji really existed.
After all, in this troubled world, no one knows who will win in the end, so these guys don't mind making more investment choices.
As for Xiang Ji’s attitude towards the clan?
Is that important? If the person who finally aspires to win is really this person, then no matter what his attitude is, even if he asks everyone to dissolve the clan, I am afraid these civil and military officials will definitely agree, right?
After all, between preserving yourself and preserving your family, isn’t it more important to preserve yourself?
Liu Biao was naturally very unhappy when he saw his subordinate Wen Wu's enthusiasm for Xiang Ji.
However, you invited me here, and the enthusiasm of your subordinates can be said to be for Jingzhou and for the sake of the overall situation. Even if you, Liu Biao, are the emperor, what can you say?
"The King of Chu has come a long way to work hard. On behalf of everyone in Jingzhou, I would like to extend a warm welcome to the King of Chu!"
In this case, Liu Biao could only show more enthusiasm than his subordinate Wenwu. At least this would not be disrespectful, right?
Even, in order to express his enthusiasm and his desire to reconcile Jingzhou and Qiuqiu, Liu Biao even invited Xiang Ji to stay in his palace.
Xiang Ji naturally agreed to this.
If you have a comfortable place to live, who would love to live in a post house?
What's more, Xiang Ji also planned to take this opportunity to find out the whereabouts of the jade seal.
If there is a chance to steal someone's money, Xiang Ji will never be polite.
Ma De, this jade seal should have belonged to me, what is the barren truce? Hum, if the jade seal is found, I will take it back even if you, Liu Biao, want to start.
You know, the jade seal represents more than just a stone.
It is a kind of inheritance and a symbol of identity and status.
Only when you have the Yuxi can you be justified and do many things to take the initiative.
I didn't see Liu Biao and Liu Yan proclaiming themselves emperor at the same time, but why was Jingzhou always suppressing Xichuan? Why was Jingzhou so prosperous in talent and talented people came to invest, so Liu Yan could only guard his own one-third of an acre?
It was because of this jade seal, and it was because Liu Biao used the jade seal to occupy the title of Dayi.
Of course, even if Xiang Ji gets the jade seal, it is impossible for him to be like Liu Biao.
After all, his surname was Liu, and the name he gave was the name of the Han family.
But the Jade Seal has no effect on Xiang Ji at present, and Xiang Ji doesn't intend to let it go.
Ma De, it's funny that you have been using my stuff for so many years in vain.
Dinner, this is the hospitality theme of this era, and it is also a must-have item.
Although Xiang Ji was helpless, he could only respond casually.
But Xiang Ji wanted to calm down and sneak away, but there were always some people who wanted to jump out.
"King Chu! You are the best general in the world. This is already recognized and we all accept it.
But, King Chu, how are the soldiers under your command? Are they worthy of your title?"
It was obvious that Zhang Yun, who had always wanted to kill Xiang Ji, felt uncomfortable when he saw Xiang Ji being so proud.
Ma De, I can't cause you any trouble, so I can send people to bully your subordinates, right?
At the very least, this will lose your face, right? And no one can find out my troubles.
Xiang Ji naturally understood the meaning of Zhang Yunzhi's words.
Humph, do you really think you are a player?
Just kidding, King Gu, I brought Zhao Yun and Xu Sheng with me.
In Jingzhou, without Huang Zhong, who is Zhao Yun's opponent? I'm afraid Xu Sheng can sweep most of the people away, right?
"Since Mr. Zhang is interested.
Then, Xu Sheng, go and play with them."
This was a good opportunity to establish his authority, how could Xiang Ji let it go?
Don't you want to lose face to me? But I just took this opportunity to use you to establish my authority.
You know, the armistice agreement between the two countries has not yet been officially signed.
If he could establish his authority before signing, Xiang Ji would not refuse.
"I am Xu Sheng of Chu State! I have given you another lesson!"
Under Xiang Ji's order, Xu Sheng came to the center of the hall and extended an invitation to Zhang Yun.
As for Zhang Yun? Just kidding, I am one of the top figures in Jingzhou. Naturally, there will be thugs below to handle this kind of fierce martial arts fight.
With a signal, a general jumped out from behind Zhang Yun.
"I am Jingzhou Wenpin!"
Seeing Wenpin come on the field, a commotion broke out among the spectators.
Just kidding, this is Jingzhou General Wenpin! Hasn't he been on the front line of Xichuan? Why did he suddenly come back?
Regarding Wenpin's participation in the battle, Liu Biao, who was sitting at the top, was not surprised.
You must know that this was specially discussed by Liu Biao, Zhang Yun and others. Wenpin and Wei Yan were temporarily transferred back from Xichuan just to gain the prestige and face of Xiang Ji.
After all, this person was really too arrogant on his way to Jingzhou.
Yingcheng's garrison of 20,000 people was actually slaughtered by eight thousand Canglongqi.
If he doesn't get this situation back, how will Liu Biao behave in the future? He's afraid of being ridiculed to death.
With the second general coming to power, the battle between the Han Dynasty in Jingzhou and the State of Chu has officially begun.
Although Xu Sheng also submitted to the Chu State for more than a year, he had not shown any performance in front of Xiang Ji because he had been fighting Jiangdong for a long time, so he valued this opportunity very much.
As long as I am brave enough, won't Overlord use me more in the future?
"Look at the knife!"
Just because he had this in mind, Xu Sheng's attack was merciless.
I have never heard of Jingzhou Wenpin.
Facing Xu Sheng's slashing sword, Wenpin turned his head to avoid it. Then, like a dragon out of the sea, Wenpin stabbed Xu Sheng, who was not in a hurry.
So strong!
After only this encounter, Xu Sheng knew that it was no wonder that Jingzhou would send Wenpin to fight. He was indeed very strong.
However, if you really think that you can defeat me, Xu Sheng, just by doing this, then you are just wishful thinking!
You know, Xu Sheng has been Zhao Yun's lieutenant for more than a year.
A sparring partner is absolutely indispensable.
If Wenpin is strong, can he be stronger than Zhao Yun?
