All the heroes in the world bow down
Yue Wuji's suggestion was actually quite reasonable, but the hidden meaning in his words was a reference to the song "Ten Sides of Ambush", which made Liu Buqi very unhappy!
Yue Lingxi's face changed even more. The situation he faced in the capital was indeed "ambushed from all sides", even though he had the support of the prince on the surface!
But in reality, there is only a fine line between support and suppression, and he may be strangled by the emperor and the prince at any time!
"Since Uncle Eight is in such a good mood, I'd like to ask Sister Yuanyuan to play a piece of 'Ten Sides of Ambush' to liven things up!"
This song "Ten Sides of Ambush" is also a famous song, which tells the old stories of the Taicang Dynasty among the three previous dynasties.
Liu Buqi had heard of it when he was in Youzhou. When he first heard the name, he thought it was the posthumous work left by a predecessor who traveled through time.
I also looked up relevant records with great interest, and found that the old story of Taicang Dynasty was exactly a replica of Liu Bang and Xiang Yu!
Yue Wuji first used the "ambush from all sides" strategy to point out Yue Lingxi's predicament in the capital. Liu Buqi had been thinking about how to suppress him, and now he had a reason to speak up!
"Alas! The former Overlord, trapped in a battlefield, had the power to rule the world, but could only die by the river. How sad and lamentable!"
As long as Yue Lingxi escapes from the capital, he can rely on the powerful soldiers of Youzhou. However, King Ning's Jingzhou is located in a place where there have been many battles. It is as difficult as climbing to the sky to break out of the siege!
Yue Wuji understood the meaning of Liu Buqi's words after a quick thought, and his face darkened.
The man sitting opposite drank a glass of wine with some playfulness, and finally a smile appeared on his face.
Chen Yuanyuan was a person who was used to controlling the situation on the pleasure boat. Seeing that the guests were in a stalemate, she immediately played the song "Ten Sides Ambush" as requested.
In an instant, the zither music like a violent storm attacked the people who were fighting for their will, and the swords and spears attacked from all sides, which had already stirred their emotions, and it seemed that a close combat had begun!
Amid the music that was sometimes fast, sometimes slow, sometimes loud, sometimes soft, the drinking man had forgotten about the wine glass he was holding, and his other hand habitually reached for his empty waist!
Yue Lingxi's eyes were filled with the vast grassland wolf riders. At this point, he had reached the end of his rope, his hands unconsciously wielding the nonexistent halberd!
What Liu Buqi saw was the final scene of her Lingxi fighting alone and being drowned by the crowd!
As for Yue Wuji, cold sweat was already pouring down his face. The Jingzhou area that he had painstakingly managed for generations was indeed surrounded by enemies. If he made a wrong move, he would lose everything!
When Chen Yuanyuan's slender fingers pressed on the still beating zither strings, the abruptly stopped music left an endless melancholy aftertaste!
At this moment, the ferocity on Yue Lingxi's face, the coldness in Liu Buqi's eyes, the closed eyes of the drinking man and Yue Wuzhi's hesitant expression were intertwined together!
One song, a hundred different people! Each person is responsible for his or her own karma! Each person's destiny is his or her own cultivation!
Liu Buqi was the first to come to his senses. He tightly grasped the hand of the person next to him, while his other hand climbed up the face that was ferocious due to "fighting without self-control".
Gently stroke the face of the God of Death and call for your peace of mind!
This gentle touch brought Yue Lingxi back to consciousness from the sea of blood, and a reassuring response came from his tightly clenched palms.
Yue Wuji also slowly came back to his senses, sighed slightly, closed his eyes and thought for a while, as if he was recalling the feeling just now. When he opened his eyes again, he was no longer hesitant!
Show your heroic qualities!
However, the man who was drinking seemed to be lost in some abnormal thoughts and couldn't extricate himself, and his hand holding the wine glass kept shaking!
Liu Buqi was filled with amazement. Chen Yuanyuan's skills had indeed reached the level of perfection, and even had a kind of magical power that bewitched people!
The man in front of me is definitely not an ordinary person, but he is so immersed in the artistic conception that he cannot control himself. It is truly amazing!
Although he had never met the man before, Liu Buqi still felt a sense of sympathy for him. If he could be so intoxicated in such an ambush, there must be something extraordinary going on!
After a brief moment of contemplation, the sound of cold chanting rang out in the pleasure boat.
"Live as a hero, die as a ghost hero. I still miss the Overlord and refuse to cross the Yangtze River."
As soon as this poem came out, even Yue Wuji, who was his "enemy", showed his appreciation!
The man also closed his eyes and read along in a low voice!
Live as a hero, die as a ghost hero.
Live as a hero, die as a ghost hero!
"What a song! One string can stir up a storm thousands of miles away! What a poem! One word can dispel the demons in one's heart."
His bright eyes suddenly opened and looked at Liu Buqi who was looking at him. He nodded slightly to express his gratitude, drank the wine in his hand, and laughed towards the sky!
At this time, the pleasure boat was approaching the Suzaku Bridge that spans the two sides of Xuanwu Lake!
At this moment, both sides of the bridge were filled with spectators. The song "Yuan Yuan" and the poem "Bu Qi" just performed echoed each other and also caused quite a stir!
In the middle of the bridge, a middle-aged scholar in black scholar's clothes, with a long beard that reaches his chest and a somewhat immortal look, was bowing in greeting.
"I wonder if it's His Royal Highness Prince Ning who's in the boat?"
When Yue Wuji heard someone calling his name, he quickly stood up and faced the black-robed scholar, bowing in greeting as well!
"I am truly unworthy. I wonder what you want from me, sir!"
The man laughed heartily. "I am a humble man, wandering about the mountains and rivers, and I happened upon this opportunity. I am so fortunate to have heard this timeless masterpiece of Master Chen's, and to have witnessed the birth of this masterpiece!"
"I was hoping to see who had done this, but I unexpectedly saw His Royal Highness Prince Ning. I guess it's fate. The mountains and rivers have been so quiet lately that I'm eager to see more. I wonder if His Royal Highness Prince Ning would take me in?"
The black-robed scholar originally looked like a master, but when his name came out, it caused a complete sensation!
It was truly a grand event that three influential figures, both on the list of heroes and on the list of beauties, gathered at the small Zhuque Bridge!
When Qu Shanhe intended to surrender to Prince Ning, the "joke of the empire", the sensation caused was even more tumultuous!
The "rich" Prince Ning remained calm in the face of the chaos, standing with his hands behind his back. "I have lived a foolish life. What merit or ability have I gained to deserve the favor of the swordsman Qu Shanhe?"
Qu Shanhe responded loudly and sincerely.
"My family has lived in Jingchu for generations. For hundreds of years, Jingzhou has been a land where no one steals lost items, fathers are kind, and sons are filial. The people have been able to live and work in peace and contentment. The Ning Wang family has made great contributions!"
"This slight stigma is nothing more than a way of keeping a low profile. I can empathize with the bitterness and grievances within. As someone who has received the kindness of the Ning King, I must repay him with my sword!"
Prince Ning seemed somewhat disillusioned. "Alas, it's rare to have a close friend like Brother Qu! My lineage as Prince Ning... never mind, let's not talk about it!"
"If Brother Qu is determined to serve his country and has nowhere else to go for the time being, the position of Chief Guest Official in my palace is vacant. When you have a better future, you can stay or leave as you wish!"
Qu Shanhe waved his hand and said, "I will never regret my loyalty to my master! From today on, I will follow Prince Ning's lead. If I have any second thoughts, Heaven will not tolerate it!"
After saying this, he bowed politely in public. King Ning naturally stood with his hands behind his back, and his image seemed to have become much taller!
If this sudden drama ends here, Prince Ning's momentum in the city will definitely be reversed tomorrow!
Ranked fourth on the list of heroes, Qu Shanhe, a literary leader and prolific author, publicly recognized King Ning as his master!
This is undoubtedly the best publicity to clear the name of Prince Ning!
But things don’t always go as we wish!
A rough and heroic voice came from the pleasure boat.
"Brother Qu, I'm itching to fight you. I've heard your Jingchu sword is upright and righteous, and your spirit is enduring. Today I want to see it for myself!"
