My brother Ying Zheng, who dares to kill me?.

Chapter 1116: Zhao Qian and Li Mu meet again! As long as General Li survives, Zhao Qian will survive!
Three years ago, the young general in golden armor and red robe and the middle-aged general in golden armor and white robe were looking at each other from afar in Fukou Pass.

The young man's red robe was stained with white blood, and his golden armor was covered with scars. He led his troops on a march of more than a thousand miles, with only a few vanguards following him. He risked his life by first deceiving and then cheating, pretending to be confident.

The middle-aged man's robe and armor were neat and clean, his expression was stern and aloof. He led his army in surprise attacks, broke through the Qin territory, and took half of the important roads. With the support of the army and the king's suspicion, he tried his best to carry out tactics and weaponry that were beyond this era.

Three years later, the young general in golden armor and red robe and the old general in golden armor and white robe were looking at each other from afar outside Puyin Pass.

The young man's red robe was made by the red fox. The robe was neat and clean. He led his troops across thousands of miles. He controlled the millions of soldiers like his own arms, and was invincible in attacking cities, capturing strongholds, beheading generals, and encircling the enemy troops. He was sure of victory.

His hair was disheveled and his white robe was full of wrinkles. He looked tired and desolate. He was suppressed by the king and had no choice but to change his flags three times. He only led tens of thousands of soldiers to surrender. He didn't know what to do in the future.

Three years was a long time. They wrinkled Li Mu’s cheeks, turned his hair white, and made Li Mu go from middle-aged to old age in a trance.

Three years was a short time. Ying Chengjiao changed his armor one after another, but the youthful vigor on his face was still as bright and passionate as ever.

Li Mu looked at Ying Chengjiao from afar and murmured in a complicated voice: "Lord Chang'an!"

“It seems like yesterday, yet it seems like a lifetime ago!”

Li Mu dismounted and strode towards Ying Chengjiao, bowing respectfully and politely: "Li Mu of Bairen, I pay my respects to the Lord of Chang'an!"

Ying Chengjiao quickened his pace, and used both hands to hold up Li Mu's arms to stop him from bending over. Then he bent his hands outwards and put them on Li Mu's elbows, and then grabbed Li Mu's arms, and said with a warm smile: "Since our hasty farewell three years ago, I have not been able to have a long chat with General Li."

"Today I am finally able to see General Li again. This is the greatest joy of my life!"

"Before the expedition, I happened to go to the king's place and stole two jars of the king's treasured wine. I will drink it with General Li!"

Li Mu's originally complicated emotions were no longer coherent.

What kind of good person would steal the king’s treasured wine?

Not only did you steal it, but you even said it out loud, and even wanted to drag me to drink with you?

How delicious that wine must be!

Li Mu smiled and nodded: "This is Li's good fortune!"

"Li first rebelled against Zhao and then against Dai, and now..."

Before Li Mu finished his confession of surrender, Ying Chengjiao interrupted him and waved behind him.

A chariot came forward immediately, and Zhao Qian, accompanied by Zhang Liang, jumped off the chariot and ran towards Li Mu with eager eyes: "Lord Wu'an!"

Li Mu: …

Li Mu looked at Ying Chengjiao, then at Zhao Qian, and his heart was almost splitting.

You want me to meet King Zhao first as soon as I return to Qin?

What kind of hell arrangement is this!
Li Hong stood in front of Li Mu and looked at Zhao Qian warily and said, "Please step back, King Zhao."

"Lord Wu'an of Zhao was already dead when the King of Zhao ordered the eunuchs to kill my father."

"The one who came to Qin today is Dai Wu'an Jun."

"It has nothing to do with Zhao!"

Zhao Qian showed no strange expression on his face, and said with a smile, "Of course I know that Wu'an Jun has nothing to do with the State of Zhao."

"It's just like the King of Zhao has nothing to do with me."

"The King of Zhao died along with the country of Zhao a long time ago. The one standing before Commandant Li now is Zhao Qian, a commoner of Qin."

"It's just that I couldn't control myself for a moment because I saw Wu Anjun again, so I got a little excited. Please don't blame me, don't blame me!"

As he spoke, Zhao Qian looked at Li Mu with eyes full of regret, reminiscence and self-blame.

After experiencing the destruction of his country, its restoration, and then its destruction again, Zhao Qian continued to grow amidst the ups and downs, and also broke through the deception set for him by Guo Kai.

When Zhao Qian saw clearly the way he had come, he finally realized that Li Mu was a rare general in the world and was by no means comparable to ordinary generals such as Zhao Cong. Without Li Mu, the State of Zhao would be vulnerable to the State of Qin.

Zhao Qian finally realized that although Li Mu had many faults, he would never do something big like helping Zhao Jia escape - he simply didn't have the ability to do so!
Looking at the two terms of important officials in the Zhao court under Zhao Qian, Li Mu is undoubtedly the number one in terms of loyalty and ability!

But such a loyal general was nearly killed by him, and he became alienated from him, and the friendship between them was no longer there!

In his dreams at midnight, Zhao Qian thought more than once, if Zhao Qian had ignored Guo Kai and reused and trusted Li Mu, what would Zhao Qian's situation be like now?
Zhao Qian didn't know, he just regretted it.

I regret it so much!
And today, the former king and ministers of Zhao State meet again in the Qin army.

When they met again, Zhao Qian had become a commoner of Qin, and Li Mu had become a surrendered general of Qin.

When their eyes met, their expressions were extremely complicated.

Li Mu forced himself to look away, and looked at Ying Chengjiao solemnly and asked, "What do you mean, Lord Chang'an?"

Ying Chengjiao had a smile on his face: "This battle is too grand, and it is also a battle between China and the barbarians."

"To be honest, I don't have absolute confidence. I intend to kill Zhao Qian, the former king, as a sacrifice to boost the morale of the army."

Zhao Qian: Σ(дlll)
What the hell?
Zhao has been so well behaved, why do you still want to kill me?
Li Mu said without hesitation: "No!"

Ying Chengjiao still had a smile on his face: "It's OK. I think the gods of all four directions will like this sacrifice."

"If Zhao Qian is sacrificed, I can guarantee victory in this battle!"

Li Mu was speechless!

As an invincible general, a great wizard recognized by the whole world, and a contemporary god whom most people in the world believed to possess divine status, no matter who Ying Chengjiao said was suitable to be sacrificed, that person would surely die, let alone Zhao Qian!
Li Mu could not help but glance at Zhao Qian's pale face again. The kindness that King Zhao Yan had shown him in the past made him determined. He begged in a low voice: "Li, I am willing to serve the Lord of Chang'an like a dog or a horse."

"Even if I die on the battlefield, it will definitely help An Jun win a great victory."

"I only ask that Lord Chang'an can let Zhao and this man go." Ying Chengjiao looked at Li Mu with burning eyes: "I know that King Zhao Daoxiang and King Zhao Xiaocheng have been kind to General Li."

"So, although General Li has returned to our Great Qin, I still plead for Zhao Qian, and I will not punish General Li."

"I only have one question."

"General Li's life-long contributions and hard work, coupled with his saving of Zhao Qian's life, are they enough to offset the kindness he showed me in the past?"

Li Mu remained silent.

How can gratitude be quantified?

A drop of water should be repaid with a spring, and a meal should be given with all one's strength. Although I have fought many victories for the two former kings, the two former kings...

Ying Chengjiao grabbed Zhao Qian with his left hand and drew his sword with his right hand.

Zhao Qian exclaimed in shock: "Mr. Wu'an! That's enough! That's enough!"

"Nothing is greater than saving the master. Although Zhao is no longer a king, my father is still my father, and my ancestor is still my ancestor."

"Mr. Wu'an, by saving Zhao's life, you can not only repay my father and ancestors for their kindness, but they will also thank you in the underworld! Mr. Wu'an, please say something quickly!"

Seeing the sword in Ying Chengjiao's hand getting closer and closer to his neck, although Zhao Qian knew that Ying Chengjiao would most likely not kill him, he was still almost scared to tears.

After all, who in the world doesn't know that Qin Chang'an Jun's behavior is unpredictable? !

What if Qin Chang'an goes crazy again?

Li Mu came to his senses and shouted: "That's enough!"

By exchanging my life for Zhao Qian's, Li can be said to have repaid the kindness of the two former kings!
The sword in Ying Chengjiao's hand stopped moving, and he asked with a smile, "Really?"

Li Mu bowed with difficulty and said, "It's true!"

"Li begs Lord Chang'an to pardon this man's death."

"Li knows that he has done nothing for Qin, so he shouldn't make this request."

"Li is willing to be the vanguard in this battle and redeem this man's life!"

Li Hong and Li Xian looked at each other and could see the joy and excitement in each other's eyes.

Later, Aweng fought for Qin not only to show his loyalty to Qin, but also to save the life of the former King of Zhao.

After these words were spoken, even the people of the former Zhao could not blame the old man!
Ying Chengjiao carefully put Zhao Qian back on the ground, bowed and said in return: "General Li's righteousness is something I respect and admire!"

"General Li can rest assured."

"As long as General Li is alive, Zhao Qian will not die!"

Li Mu and Zhao Qian both breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this, but then they were both shocked again.

The matter concerned his life and death, so Zhao Qian hurriedly asked, "What do you mean by this, Lord Chang'an?"

"If Wu Anjun doesn't die, then Zhao won't die. What if..."

Ying Chengjiao's smile grew brighter: "If General Li dies, I will ask Zhao Qian to be buried with him."

"With General Li protecting him all the way, I think Zhao Qian will have an easier time on the road to the underworld."

Zhao Qian:!!!∑(Дノ)ノ

Li Mu: (⊙▽⊙)
you!
Are you a devil!
Li Mu repeatedly asked: "How can Chang'an Jun do this!"

"Chang'an Jun has clearly promised Li that he will no longer sacrifice the King of Zhao!"

In a hurry, Li Mu even forgot to use "this person" to refer to Zhao Qian.

Ying Chengjiao didn't care. He just looked at Li Mu with a smile and said, "So, General Li, you should take good care of yourself and don't do anything that will make your loved ones sad and your enemies happy!"

Zhao Qian was about to cry.

How old is Zhao Qian, and how old is Li Mu?

Tying Zhao Qian's life to Li Mu's life is a huge loss for Zhao Qian!

But Zhao Qian knew that as a defeated king, he had no power to change Ying Chengjiao's decision. He had to hold back his tears, look up at Li Mu pitifully and beg: "Uncle! Uncle!"

"You will live a long life, won't you?"

"Please uncle, be sure to be stingy with yourself!"

Li Mu's face turned slightly pale, and after struggling for a long time, he finally returned the greeting with a bitter face: "Li, I will definitely be stingy with myself!"

With a long sigh, Li Mu looked at Ying Chengjiao with a complicated and puzzled look and asked, "How did Lord Chang'an know that I was determined to die?"

Li Hong looked up at the sky, Li Xian looked down at the grass, Li Bo stood on tiptoe on the northern plain and looked into the distance, Zhao Jiang picked his nails, Ma Chong whistled, and Lu Gao picked lice from the warhorse.

Yes, how did Chang'an Jun know that General Li was determined to die?
What a strange thing to say!
Perhaps, this is the prophetic power of the great witch of the time? Yes, that's it!

Ying Chengjiao chuckled: "It doesn't matter how I know it."

"It is very important to have General Li be used by Qin!"

Li Mu opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he just laughed at himself: "How can a general like me who has been defeated in battles like this be so valued by the Lord of Chang'an!"
