"Tell me, what's going on?"
Xiang Liang directly stood up and said.
"Patriarch, according to the report, the assassination attempt failed completely. Xiang Zhuang and the rest of Zhao Gao's henchmen were executed after being paraded in the streets of Xianyang City!”
The Xiang disciple lowered his head and said with a sorrowful expression.
Xiang Liang's face was pale. His body swayed and he almost fell to the ground.
Although there are many descendants in the Xiang clan, only Xiang Yu and Xiang Zhuang are able to achieve great things among the younger generation.
Although Xiang Yu had great strength and courage, he was impulsive and arrogant. It was easy for him to succeed or fail.
Although Xiang Zhuang was not as brave as Xiang Yu, he had inherited the Xiang family's swordsmanship and had a steady personality. He was the best partner for Xiang Yu.
Now that Xiang Zhuang has failed in his assassination attempt and was killed, it is definitely a huge loss for the Xiang Clan.
Although he had expected this, he still couldn't take it when he really heard the tragic retribution.
More importantly, the Xiang Clan would definitely become a thorn in the Qin Emperor's side. It would be impossible for them to continue developing peacefully.
"Uncle, just let me bring some people to Xianyang and kill that bullsh * t Fusu, okay?”
On the other side, Xiangyu had already gone berserk.
Xiang Zhuang is his cousin. They grew up together and have a good relationship.
Now that his cousin had been killed, Xiangyu's mind was filled with thoughts of revenge.
"Don't act rashly!"
"Xiang Zhuang has already been destroyed. If something happens to you, will the Xiang clan end its line?" Uncle Xiang quickly stopped him.”
"If you dare to go out without permission, I won't acknowledge you as my nephew anymore!”
Xiang Liang also regained his senses and said sternly.
He knew his nephew very well. If he didn't say something harsh, he definitely wouldn't be able to stop him.
Seeing that his most respected uncle had said so, Xiangyu had no choice but to retreat resentfully. However, he was still very dissatisfied in his heart.
All the important members of the clan had been killed, but they did not dare to take revenge. In Xiangyu's eyes, they were simply useless and could not take it lying down.
"Is there any other news?"
Xiang Liang glanced at Xiang Yu and sighed.
This nephew was still too young and impetuous.
"There is also another important piece of news. Fusu is going to replace Qin Wangzheng in his fourth tour of the east.”
The Xiang Clan disciple hurriedly reported.
"What?"
At this moment, Xiang Liang, Xiang Bo, and Xiang Yu cried out in unison.
Ever since the seven kingdoms had been unified, Ying Zheng had been conducting an Eastern tour every two to three years. It was not unexpected that it was about time.
However, this time, Fu Su, the Crown Prince of Great Qin, was the one who replaced Ying Zheng in the Eastern Patrol. The meaning behind this was worth pondering over.
The fact that Ying Zheng was able to let Fu Su patrol the east in his place showed that he trusted Fu Su very much. The purpose of this tour was to let Fu Su familiarize himself with the situation in various places of Great Qin, so that he could prepare for his succession in the future.
To the Xiang Clan, this is absolutely the worst news.
Originally, although Ying Zheng was a man of great talent and resourcefulness, even the descendants of the six dynasties had no choice but to submit to him, and did not dare to act rashly.
However, Ying Zheng was old, and his body was not in good condition. In order to appease the world, he often patrolled the world. He might die one day.
At that time, Great Qin, which had yet to decide on a successor, would definitely fall into civil strife, and the six countries would have a chance to rise up.
In the end, Fu Su suddenly appeared and the foreign army rose up. He became Great Qin's Crown Prince because he had destroyed the Xiongnu, forcing the descendants of the six countries into a corner.
They could kill Ying Zheng, who was almost fifty years old, but could they kill Fu Su, who was only in his early twenties and was so healthy that he could kill his enemies easily?
This was why the remnants of the Six Nations and Zhao Gao had colluded to assassinate Fu Su.
It was a pity that all his efforts had failed at the last moment, and it had instead accelerated Ying Zheng's plan of handing Great Qin over to Fusu.
Moreover, from one aspect, this was also a slap in the face that Fu Su had given them.
They had just assassinated Fu Su, and the elites of the clan had been paraded through the streets and beheaded. Then, Fu Su had openly come to their base camp. Was there any more obvious contempt than this?
Moreover, because Fu Su's mother was the daughter of the Chu royal family, he had quite an influence in Chu. Now that there were many benevolent policies, if Fu Su was allowed to run things in Chu, the Xiang clan would really be in despair.
Xiang Liang and Uncle Xiang's faces were extremely ugly.
At this moment, the butler reported,""Patriarch, Zhang Liang is here."
"Please!"
Uncle Xiang's face flashed with joy.
He has a good relationship with Zhang Liang and admires Zhang Liang's talent. He has always wanted to pull Zhang Liang into the Xiang Clan.
Xiang Liang also nodded slightly.
Only Xiangyu had a look of disdain on his face.
In his opinion, although Zhang Liang's clan had been the prime minister for generations, the Land of Han was just a small country, the land of a palm.
He was also very pretentious and kept saying that Xiangyu should study.
Wasn't this mocking him for being brainless?
How could Xiangyu find Zhang Liang pleasing to the eye?
Even though Zhang Liang had been planning all this time, he had become much more cautious after the failed assassination attempt on Bo Langsha. He did not even show up when it was an opportunity to assassinate Fu Su, which made Xiang Yu look down on him even more.
He was just a frightened rat.
On the other side, the butler had already personally brought Zhang Liang in.
"Do you have a good plan to teach me?"
After Uncle Xiang finished explaining the situation, he looked at Zhang Liang expectantly.
"What was your original plan?"
Zhang Liang frowned slightly.
"That Fu Su dared to come to Chu Land, so naturally, we should kill him!”
"We couldn't kill Zhao Gao in Xianyang, but why can't we kill him in Chu?”
Xiangyu said disdainfully.
Xiang Liang and Uncle Xiang also nodded.
Obviously, they had the same confidence in Si Shui and Chu Land.
This was their base camp, and there were pursuers everywhere.
Only Zhang Liang frowned even more.
"If you guys can think of this, why can't Fu Su think of it?”
"Even if he didn't think of it, Ying Zheng wouldn't have made such a big mistake!”
"This time, Fu Su will definitely be heavily guarded when he enters Chu Land!”
"Maybe before he arrives, the army will already surround Si Water County.”
Zhang Liang sighed.
"It's fine. The water in Si Water County is very dense. Even if a hundred thousand soldiers come, they won't be able to do anything to us in a short period of time!”
"As long as Fu Su dies, this army will definitely fall into chaos. At that time, it will be our chance to rise up!”
Xiangyu looked at Zhang Liang provocatively.
Although he didn't like to study, he had a unique talent for leading troops in battle.
Even Xiang Liang was no match for him when the disciples of the clan competed in military chess.
"So what if you can destroy this army of 100,000?”
"Ying Zheng will be even more enraged. By then, he will have to face an army of three hundred thousand, or even five hundred thousand!”
"The commanding general will also be changed to Wang Jian and other old and scheming people. They won't easily give him a chance!”
Zhang Liang shook his head.
Xiangyu and the others 'eyes were filled with hatred.
Xiang Yu's grandfather, Xiang Yan, the father of Xiang Liang and Xiang Bo, committed suicide after losing to Wang Jian.
But no matter how unconvinced they were, they also had to admit that Wang Jian was indeed not easy to deal with.
"Then what does Zifang think?"
Xiang Liang said in a deep voice.
"It's very simple. Do the opposite. Kill Fu Su in the place that he thinks is the safest and the most impossible!”
Zhang Liang said coldly.
