"Great news, great news! Congratulations."
There must be something worth celebrating. Uncle Xiang of the Xiang clan laughed out loud. He was even happier than during the New Year.
"Uncle Xiang, what good news is it?”
It was rare to see the calm Uncle Xiang lose his composure like this. The leader of the Xiang clan, Xiang Liang, couldn't help but feel very puzzled.
The Chu Kingdom was so huge that it was destroyed by the First Emperor, Ying Zheng. They would not have any chance to restore the country, and they would have to hide everywhere.
"Yes, Uncle Xiang, what great news do you have?”
The younger generation of the Xiang Clan, the West Chu Conqueror Xiang Yu, who had yet to mature, asked curiously.
The only thing worth being happy about was the opportunity to restore the country. Other than that, he really couldn't think of anything else.
"According to our spies, the First Emperor passed away in the Sand Dune Palace!”
Unable to control his excitement, Uncle Xiang clenched his fists tightly and almost danced on the spot.
"Did I hear it right? The First Emperor really died?”
After waiting for too many years, the day of the First Emperor's death finally came. Xiang Liang thought he had heard wrongly and asked nervously.
The prestige of the First Emperor was too high, so high that it was daunting. However, if he died, they would definitely have a chance to restore the country.
"This is great. Uncles, we are preparing to rebel against Qin. The time has finally come.”
Hearing this news, Xiangyu was even more excited than the other two. He wanted to immediately form an anti-Qin team.
"Yu 'er, don't be impatient when doing things, especially when it concerns the great cause of rebelling against Qin.”
After all, he was someone who had experienced great storms. Xiang Liang, who had regained his senses, frowned and reprimanded him in front of him.
As the young master of the Xiang clan, besides having martial strength, he must also have basic strategies. Otherwise, how could he achieve great things?
"Yes, Third Uncle."
Others might not listen, but Xiang Yu, who respected his third uncle, could only agree helplessly.
In his heart, he didn't think much of it. He didn't need any tricks at all. He just had to kill his way over.
"Third brother, in the future, there will still be a long time…"
Seeing that the young master was not listening at all, Uncle Xiang patted Xiang Liang's shoulder, indicating that he should not be too strict.
"I hope so!"
Sometimes, a plan was better than a hundred thousand soldiers. How could Yu 'er not understand? Xiang Liang shook his head, somewhat disappointed that he did not live up to his expectations.
"Uncle Xiang, have you investigated which prince will ascend the throne?”
The death of the First Emperor was the foundation for the uprising, and the second Qin Emperor was the opportunity to do so. Xiang Liang, who had seen through it very clearly, turned around and asked.
After so many years of waiting, they finally welcomed a great opportunity, the greatest opportunity to restore the country.
"According to the news, the First Emperor left behind a posthumous edict to let Sixth Prince Ying Che ascend the throne. He is currently on his way back to Xianyang.”
Uncle Xiang was in a good mood at the mention of this matter, and he told him everything he knew.
"Ying Che is a brutal person. He killed tens of thousands of people in one breath and even killed a group of Confucian scholars on behalf of the First Emperor.”
Hearing this, Xiang Liang heaved a sigh of relief. As long as it wasn't the First Prince, it was fine.
Fu Su's method was more gentle. Perhaps things would become chaotic later, but they really could not afford to wait.
"Hahaha, the heavens are really looking out for us. First, the First Emperor passed away, and then the cruel prince ascended the throne.”
Listening to the conversation between his two uncles, Xiangyu burst into laughter. He was full of yearning for the cause of anti-Qin.
"It's too early to be happy. The sixth prince of the Qin clan is not an ordinary person.”
Just as Xiang Liang and the other two were feeling happy about this, a voice that was not too deep rang out. It was the white-haired Fan Zeng who had stepped into the thatched cottage.
"Elder Fan, if you really put it that way, it's too encouraging.”
The other party was an old man in his seventies and one of their few important strategists. Uncle Xiang did not speak too harshly with basic respect.
This was a great opportunity. Elder Fan was being too disappointing. Where did his usual wisdom go?
"Elder Fan must be old and muddle-headed. Isn't he just a cruel prince? What's there to worry about?”
Hearing Fan Zeng's words, Xiangyu secretly thought that he was an old fool and thought that Old Lady Fan was worrying for nothing.
“………”
Even if Xiang Liang himself did not speak, but from his indifferent expression, it seemed that his thoughts were the same as Uncle Xiang's.
"It's not that I'm trying to boost his ambition, but I just received a piece of news…"
"Last night, the Sand Dune Rebellion erupted. The sixth prince of the Qin Clan, Ying Che, killed Zhao Gao. Prime Minister Li Si even took the lead to call him the Crown Prince.”
Seeing that the three of them didn't believe him, Fan Zeng didn't get angry and said in a low voice.
"This!"
He was not an arrogant fool. When he heard the latter part of the sentence, Xiang Liang was no longer as disapproving as before. Instead, his face was filled with shock.
How could the prince who killed Zhao Gao in the coup and whom Prime Minister Li Si was willing to call the crown prince be a simple person?
"It seems that things are not as simple as we thought.”
It was precisely because of his noble status that he understood how extraordinary this was. Xiang Bo was no exception, and a solemn expression appeared on his face.
"Isn't it just a coup? What's the big deal?”
Xiangyu didn't care about his two uncles 'reactions at all. He could have done the same if he had been in their shoes.
"Yu 'er, I told you to read more books, but you didn't listen to uncle's advice. Sooner or later, you'll be planted with a big root.”
Hearing such a sentence, how could Xiang Liang not know that Young Master could not see through it? He simply could not help but get angry.
It had to be said that Xiang Liang knew Xiang Yu's background very well. In history, not only did he suffer a huge setback, he even lost his own life.
“………”
Seeing that his uncle was really angry, Xiangyu quickly shut his mouth and did not contradict his elders.
"Elder Fan, what should we do now?”
He did not believe the other party just now. Xiang Liang asked with an obvious apology.
"To be honest, this old man can't see through the sixth prince of the Qin family, Ying Che. Right now, we should observe the situation and wait for the time to change.”
"Although the First Emperor has passed away, the Qin Clan hasn't fallen into chaos yet. There isn't a good opportunity.”
After thinking carefully, Fan Zeng's train of thought became clearer and clearer, and he suggested in an orderly manner.
"Fortunately, Elder Fan dissuaded us in time, so we didn't act impulsively.”
What he said was right. The death of the First Emperor was the prerequisite for preparing the army, and the chaos of the Qin Dynasty was the opportunity to restore the country.
When he thought of this, Xiang Liang was glad that he did not lose his mind and thanked Fan Zeng in person.
"I was presumptuous just now. Please forgive me, Elder Fan.”
Similarly, Uncle Xiang, who felt very embarrassed, also thanked him.
"This is what this old master should do.”
Faced with the two people's mutual gratitude, Fan Zeng did not have the reason to take advantage of his seniority. The only anger he had disappeared at once.
After all, after joining the anti-Qin team, he could only succeed.
