Qin Dynasty: Your Majesty, I really am a time traveler.

Chapter 72 Xiang Yu can stick together again.

The State of Chu? That's interesting!

Ying Zheng's thoughts drifted back to many years ago.

At that time, the spirited Li Xin led 20 young men from the Qin state to attack the Chu state, but unexpectedly suffered a defeat.

Although it also inflicted heavy damage on the State of Chu, it was the biggest defeat Qin had ever suffered when it unified the six states.

"Ah, yes."

Ying Zheng nodded in agreement, then let out a long sigh.

"Ever since Qin Shi Huang unified the six kingdoms, our liquor business has become increasingly difficult."

"As merchants, we were already of low status. If it weren't for the fact that he was a nobleman and had some connections in the court, we really wouldn't be able to survive. This tyrannical Qin deserves it!"

Xiang Yu glanced at Ying Zheng, and for some reason, he felt a strange and inexplicable feeling about his uncle Tang Yu from the very first moment he saw him.

However, he didn't take it to heart, especially since what the other party said was what he was most interested in: the destruction of Qin.

"Alas, Uncle Zhao, let me be frank with you. The Qin state's scourge wasn't just limited to the tyrant Ying Zheng!"

"The current tyrant Ying Zheng is even more powerful now, with a new ally, that so-called Imperial Advisor Tang Yu? He's no better than anyone else!"

"Cough cough cough-"

Tang Yu, who was still engrossed in playing PUBG, suddenly found himself caught up in the drama and looked up in confusion.

"Huh?? Me??"

Everyone around glanced at Tang Yu without making a sound, looking like they wanted to laugh but didn't dare to. At this moment, Ying Zheng suddenly showed an expression of approval.

"Nephew Xiang Yu, what you say makes perfect sense. This Tang Yu is definitely not a good person either!"

Upon seeing this scene, only Tang Yu raised his head, glaring angrily at Ying Zheng, his eyes filled with a desire to devour him whole.

Fusu and Wang Li, who had been eating intently with their heads down, didn't dare to utter a single sound.

If Mr. Tang and His Majesty, two gods, were to fight, and someone like me, a nobody, were to be caught in the crossfire, it would be utterly miserable.

"Brother Xiang, I feel there's something wrong with what you're saying, isn't there? After all, I've heard that the Imperial Preceptor Tang Yu is an immortal, and he doesn't seem to have issued any particularly cruel decrees..."

Tang Yu pretended to be somewhat hesitant as he looked at Xiang Yu.

Looking at his sworn brother's innocent demeanor, Xiang Yu said with a heavy heart:

"My dear brother! My dear brother! You must not be fooled by that scoundrel Tang Yu!"

"Let me tell you, that bastard may not be as heinous as Ying Zheng, but he was just as deserving of death!"

"If I ever meet him again, I will definitely chop him into minced meat to vent my hatred!"

Good heavens! What have I done to incur such widespread wrath?

Tang Yu's lips twitched, while Ying Zheng said:

"It seems that my nephew Xiang Yu knows some inside information that we don't. Would you be so kind as to tell us about it?"

Xiang Yu nodded, his tone filled with resentment.

"The Xiong clan of the Chu royal family injured people while riding horses in the city. They should have only received a few days of punishment and compensation at most, and then the matter would have been over."

"But Tang Yu insisted on strict criminal law and severely punished Fan Shi, which eventually implicated the entire royal family of Chu. He was simply guilty of heinous crimes!"

Xiang Yu slammed his fist on the table in anger as he finished speaking, and only after looking at the expressions of those around him did he take a deep breath.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I lost my composure."

Xiang Yu looked at Ying Zheng, his tone carrying a hint of resentment and dissatisfaction.

"But Uncle Zhao, you must understand that even that tyrant, when he unified the six kingdoms, did not lay a hand on the royal family!"

"That Tang Yu actually implicated the entire Chu royal family because of a single incident of injuring someone while riding a horse. It's an outrageous crime..."

"And then there's him, he's just..."

Listening to his good brother Xiang Yu frantically complaining about him, Tang Yu couldn't hold back any longer.

"Pfft-"

He finally laughed. Xiang Yu looked at his good brother, wondering why he was laughing.

"Zilong, what's wrong with you?"

"It's nothing, Brother Xiang. I just remembered something happy."

Xiang Yu nodded and continued to complain to Ying Zheng.

At this moment, Fusu also covered his face with his hand, unable to suppress a laugh.

A rebel who wanted to overthrow the Qin Dynasty filed a complaint against the Qin State's Grand Tutor to Qin Shi Huang? Surrounding him were the Qin Crown Prince and a general.

No matter how you look at it, this whole thing is just perfect for a TV show!

After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill and returned to their rooms to rest, Tang Yu led Wang Li to Xiang Yu's side and said:

"Brother Xiang, didn't you say last time that I should go to Chu to serve as a secretary?"

"But it's not easy for me to leave home so easily. My younger brother is rather shy and needs to go out and get some experience."

"Since we know each other well, why not let him take on the position of secretary?"

Wang Li stepped forward, his heart filled with boundless rage, yet he appeared somewhat timid.

"Brother Xiang... if it doesn't work out... then forget it..."

"No? How can a man say no?!"

Wang Li's two words seemed to have hit Xiang Yu's sore spot!

Looking at the shy young man in front of him, Xiang Yu's elder brother's spirit suddenly burst forth.

"Since you are Zilong's younger brother, then you are my younger brother!"

"I think Zilong's suggestion is good. It's a good opportunity for you to go to our Jiangdong region and train properly. Then you'll look like a real man!"

At this moment, Xiang Yu's smile was harder to suppress than an AK.

I was thinking that I and my good brother Tang Yu had just met and were about to part ways, without even having time to reconnect.

Just when I was still feeling regretful, I unexpectedly gained such a useful cousin?

Isn't this a perfect opportunity for me to reunite with my brother Zilong?

"In that case, I'll have to trouble you, Brother Xiang."

"Don't mention it, we're all brothers, there's no trouble at all."

"Let me tell you, when I overthrow this tyrannical Qin Dynasty and become the King of Chu, I will definitely bestow a title upon you as well. What kind of king do you want then, Zilong? I will appoint you as..."

After sending the incoherent Xiang Yu back, Tang Yu returned to the house and looked at Ying Zheng.

"Brother Zheng, what is your opinion on Xiang Yu?"

At this moment, Ying Zheng's lips curled into an undisguised smile, his tone tinged with excitement.

"I previously thought Mr. Tang's description was somewhat exaggerated, but when I saw Xiang Yu's physique and imposing presence, I knew he was an unparalleled warrior!"

"I wonder if Mr. Tang has any way to persuade him to join my Qin state? If we can obtain such a fierce general, my Qin state will surely sweep away those barbarian Xiongnu!"

Tang Yu: !!

Good grief, so everyone's planning to overthrow your country.

Not only do you not want to kill him, you're thinking of recruiting him?

Such magnanimity truly befits Brother Zheng!
