"What? You mean Zhang Liang wants to see me?"

Inside the house, Xiang Yu was furious.

The promulgation of the new Qin law was like rubbing salt into his wounds, causing him unbearable pain!

Whether it's the welfare benefits for old lovers or the reduction of pressure on the people of Qin, allowing them to live and work in greater peace and contentment.

Furthermore, the appointment and deployment of officials, as well as other new adjustments, have fundamentally destroyed the most basic force that enabled the six states to resist the tyrannical Qin!

It's unbelievable that all their previous worries have come true!

The most critical thing is this anti-espionage law!

Xiang Yu felt that everyone was looking at him strangely on his way back!

"What a beast! That imperial advisor deserves to die! Why didn't he die last time?!"

After a roar, Xiang Yu calmed down and looked at the servant, his brows furrowed.

A terrible thought arose in his mind: Could it be that Zhang Liang had also seen the counter-espionage law?

He came specifically to visit me to confirm my identity as a spy so that he could report me to the Qin state.

Once this idea took root in Xiang Yu's mind, it began to grow wildly and could never be erased!

He recalled the last time he met Zhang Liang, when he seemed to have always thought of Zhang Liang as a staunch anti-Qin figure because of the outside world's opinion of him.

Therefore, he poured out his identity and thoughts to Zhang Liang like beans spilling from a bamboo tube.

Zhang Liang not only did not show any joy, but remained unmoved.

Could it be that he really came to report me?

The more Xiang Yu thought about it, the more likely it seemed. Originally, Xiang Yu was preparing to go down to see Zhang Liang, but now he had someone put on his armor.

He even carried his Overlord Spear in his hand, suspecting that Zhang Liang had the Qin army behind him!

"Hey, where's Xiang Yu?"

Zhang Liang waited downstairs, somewhat puzzled.

After all, he had come to visit Xiang Yu and form an anti-Qin alliance with him on the orders of the Grand Preceptor, but he never expected that Xiang Yu would refuse to see him for so long.

Could it be that my attitude in rejecting him last time made him feel disappointed?

Zhang Liang couldn't think of any other reason besides this. At this moment, Xiang Yu upstairs was already fully prepared and began to cautiously descend the stairs step by step.

Seeing that the other party still wouldn't come down, Zhang Liang could only shout loudly again from below.

"Zhang Liang, son of Xiang Yu and grandson of the Chancellor of the State of Han, requests an audience!"

His voice carried for a long distance, startling Xiang Yu, who was going up and down the stairs.

However, he still slowly walked downstairs.

Seeing that no one had come down for a long time, Zhang Liang was about to go upstairs when he felt a chilling killing intent rushing towards him.

Zhang Liang quickly stepped aside, simultaneously engaging in a standoff!

Yes, the nobles and civil officials of this era were not as people remember them.

In this day and age, the Six Arts of a Gentleman are highly valued!

Confucius was able to travel around the states with three thousand disciples. You don't really think he faced those dangers just by spouting "I am a wise man," do you?

Especially during the Spring and Autumn Period, when the Five Hegemons fought and died in battle, all of them were nobles, and they even considered it an honor!

This shows that although Zhang Liang's skills were not as good as Xiang Yu's, they were definitely not weak.

However, compared to Xiang Yu, his skills were as rudimentary as those of a kindergarten child.

Just as Zhang Liang dodged one spear thrust, Xiang Yu swept the spear tip horizontally, aiming for Zhang Liang's face.

Zhang Liang was so frightened that he was scared out of his wits and hurriedly shouted.

"Young Master Xiang Yu, what is the meaning of this? Zhang Liang has come to join you in the great cause of overthrowing the Qin Dynasty!"

Perhaps it was because he saw that there was no ambush for a long time, or perhaps Zhang Liang's words made Xiang Yu hesitate.

The Overlord Spear stopped an inch in front of Zhang Liang's head!

The most nervous person at this moment was not Xiang Yu and Zhang Liang, but Meng Tian, ​​who was lying in wait behind them.

Tang Yu originally told him that he was sent to follow Zhang Liang, but not to ensure Zhang Liang's loyalty, but to ensure Zhang Liang's safety!

If Xiang Yu didn't trust Zhang Liang, he might really have killed him!

All Meng Tian needed to do was rescue Zhang Liang in front of Xiang Yu and then run away with Zhang Liang.

Whether or not we can win over Xiang Yu is irrelevant; Zhang Liang cannot compromise his principles!

However, Meng Tian, ​​who was on the rooftop just now, was also terrified when he saw Xiang Yu's outrageous skills.

Thinking of the powerful and swift wielding of the Overlord Spear in his hand, Meng Tian didn't think he could take the man away unharmed in front of him; he might even lose his own life here.

Thinking back to how he had foolishly tried to seduce Xiang Yu that night, Meng Tian felt a cold sweat break out on his back.

Fortunately, the Grand Preceptor stopped me at the time, otherwise my Meng family would probably have had to change its head.

"Huff huff—"

On the brink of life and death, Zhang Liang gasped for breath, his eyes filled with shock as he looked at Xiang Yu.

Even though Xiang Yu wanted to kill him, he had to say it.

But his skill and strength were simply too incredible!

He truly deserves the title of a fierce general praised by the Imperial Advisor, capable of defeating ten thousand men. No wonder the Imperial Advisor couldn't bear to let him die.

"Young Master Xiang Yu, what is the meaning of this?"

Pointing at the Overlord Spear gleaming with a cold light in front of him, Zhang Liang questioned angrily.

He was certain that his meeting with Tang Yu was completely unknown to anyone, and that no one was following him.

Don't ask him how he learned it; after all, he was the one who attempted to assassinate Qin Shi Huang, so he would know how to track and counter-track.

“Young Master Zhang, when I approached you before, you kept insisting that you were not an anti-Qin figure!”

"Now you've come to my doorstep, are you perhaps planning to exchange my head for a reward?"

Xiang Yu's tone was icy, and his killing intent was palpable; he sensed that something was amiss.

“yu——”

Just then, a carriage arrived beside them, and Tang Yu was inside.

As soon as he jumped down, he saw the two men looking tense and ready to fight.

He suddenly pulled back, looking at the place where the two were fighting with some fear in his eyes, and asked Xiang Yu in a trembling voice.

"Big brother, what are you doing?"

Upon seeing Tang Yu arrive, a hint of joy flashed across Xiang Yu's angry expression.

However, turning his gaze back to the damned Zhang Liang in front of him, Xiang Yu spoke to Tang Yu without even turning his head.

"Zilong, you go upstairs first. This man is likely a spy for Qin. Your elder brother will handle the case here, so you won't get hurt!"

Zhang Liang: ? ? ?

He was dumbfounded. Looking at the brotherly and respectful manner between Tang Yu and Xiang Yu, he really felt like vomiting blood.

What a pity!

You were so polite to the Qin State's Grand Preceptor, but you treat me like this? Doesn't your conscience hurt?

Zhang Liang glanced at Tang Yu, who was exchanging pleasantries with Xiang Yu, with a resentful look in his eyes, his gaze filled with pain.
