Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 842 Uncle and Nephew Argument
  Facing a great situation, Xiong Qi's tense heart finally relaxed a little.

After he felt relaxed, he went to find his nephew who was imprisoned by his own people.

For Fusu, Xiong Qi did not arrange many manpower to guard it.

First, in his perception, this child was just a harmless and modest gentleman.

At most, he knows a little about the Six Arts of a Gentleman, and just arranging a few people is enough to ensure that he can't escape.

Secondly, he had no intention of imprisoning Fusu for long. Anyway, it was enough to use the name of the eldest son in the past two days to aggravate Qin Jun's anxiety.

You know, Fusu also has a teacher who is almost recognized by the world as the best master in the world.

When Gu Xun came to kill him, Fusu naturally couldn't keep him.

Of course, Lord Changping, who didn't understand Gu Xun's strength, didn't think that he would be unable to forcefully keep Fusu from his opponent.

I just think the cost is too high and not worth it.

In the final analysis, Fusu's role was not that big. After all, he was only the eldest son, not the prince, not even the eldest son.

According to Lord Changping, even if Gu Xun does not come to save his students, he will directly release them after the battle between Qin and Chu comes to an end.

In his opinion, keeping Fusu would be harmful but useless. He could not kill his nephew, so he could only let him go.

So Xiong Qi deliberately planned to come over and have a chat with Fusu while he was still there.

If possible, he still didn't want his nephew to be completely hostile to him.

Fusu watched his uncle walk in with a relaxed expression and a slight smile on his lips, and he judged in his heart that his plan in the past two days should go smoothly.

However, Fusu did not show any anger. After all, in his opinion, this was just a flashback before death.

The issue he has been thinking about these two days is what Gu Xun said to him on the way here.

Kill Xiong Qi personally...

He still hadn't completely made up his mind.

Changping Jun Shi Shiran walked to sit opposite Fusu and looked at his nephew who had a calm face but complicated eyes.

He didn't know whether he should be sorry or relieved.

Despite unexpected deviations in Fusu's training, Fusu still grew into a satisfactory and elegant gentleman who was very different from his father.

At least Xiong Qi is satisfied with this.

"In these two days, the entire Chen County has completely overthrown the rule of Qin."

Xiong Qian recounted to Fusu in a calm but slightly complacent tone, "Li Xin has already led his troops to withdraw to the west at this time. Qin's attack on Chu is probably the best result of returning without success."

Listening to these words that sounded like a show off or a statement, Fusu asked slowly, "Does uncle really think that everything has been settled?"

Xiong Qi shook his head, "I don't think so."

"But..." He made a turn and said calmly, "I have done everything I can do. Whether the next step goes smoothly depends on the confrontation between General Xiang Yan and Li Xin."

"This is beyond my control."

Fusu tightened his folded hands, stared at Xiong Qi and asked:
  "Uncle, does he know what will happen to you if you fail?"

Xiong Qi replied without hesitation, "No matter what the fate is, it will not be more miserable than being a slave to a subjugated country!"

Then he slowed down and said softly to Fusu, "Fusu, in your opinion, what I did is an out-and-out betrayal, but to me, I just chose my country."

"No matter what, I am the son of the late King of Chu and a member of the Chu Kingdom's royal family."

"I don't expect or need you to forgive me for what I did, but I hope you can understand the reason why I did it."

Fusu was not moved by Xiong Qi's words and shook his head slowly but firmly.

Today, he is by no means an ordinary gentleman who only understands benevolence, justice and morality. He has his own judgment on matters.

Rational enough, but also emotionally judgmental.

"Uncle, I only know that everything you have is given to you by the State of Qin."

"Your official position, your salary, your title, your fief, your status, everything..."       "All are given to you by the State of Qin."

In Fusu's view, there is nothing wrong with Xiong Qi choosing Chu between Qin and Chu.

As he said, he is the official of Chu State.

But it is absolutely impossible to agree with what he did.

Fusu could understand his teacher's friend, Han Fei, the Ninth Young Master of South Korea.

The other party devoted everything to his country, and joining Qin as a minister was also to save the country.

Qin didn't owe him anything, and it didn't let South Korea go because of him.

He didn't owe anything to Qin, and he always spoke from South Korea's perspective.

But Xiong Qi is different. His relationship with Qin is completely different from that between Han Fei and Qin.

If Xiong Qi just chose to abandon Qin, return to his homeland, and help Chu fight against foreign enemies, then he would still be able to accept it.

But what he chose was not betrayal, but backstabbing.

Faced with Fusu's calm but sharp words, Changping Jun was silent. After a moment, he couldn't help shaking his head and laughing.

"Haha...you have really grown up."

"That's okay, that's okay... I just hope you can retain your natural kindness."

Fusu looked at Xiong Qi, who was smiling with complicated eyes, without saying a word.

Xiong Qize still asked him with a smile, "Since you think so, then... Fusu, what are you going to do in the future?"

"..." Fusu was silent for a long time before slowly replying, "That's okay, I should kill you myself, uncle..."

Xiong Qi was a little stunned after hearing this, and didn't know what expression to show to express his complicated feelings.

"...Ha, if one day, I die in your hands...it wouldn't be bad."

Xiong Qi just sighed casually and did not think that his life would fall into Fusu's hands one day.

Fusu's mood fluctuated several times after hearing this.

This day will really come, and... it shouldn't be far away.

After casually arranging some arrangements for himself, Xiong Qi stood up supporting the desk and ordered:

"You continue to stay here safely and don't act rashly."

"In a few days, even if Li Xin is defeated and has no time to save you, your teacher probably won't sit back and watch you continue to fall into my hands."

"You will be free then."

As soon as he finished speaking, he noticed that Fusu's eyes were a little strange, as if... the focus was not on him.

Instead, he looked behind him, where the door was.

At the same time, a voice sounded behind him at the right time:
  "Hey, Changping-kun understands how I feel as a teacher!"

"Indeed, it's not a problem for Fusu to stay here all the time, so I'm here."

"But maybe a little sooner than you expect."

The clear and clear sound belonging to Gu Xun suddenly resounded in Xiong Qi's ears, causing his whole body to freeze in place as if falling into an ice cellar, and he had no strength to move.

Gu Xun came so quickly!

Moreover, he quietly passed through Tian Guang's supervision and touched himself.

The next thought that came to Xiong Qi's mind was - he was dead!
