"Okay!" The King of Chu felt relieved, "Then I will feel relieved."

At this time, the flag plaque official came in to report, "Your Highness of the King of Chu, Commander Zhao asked for a meeting, there is an emergency military situation!"

The King of Chu's eyes lit up, "Please hurry!"

"Yes!" The flag plaque clasped his fists and turned around and went out.

The King of Chu asked Lin Xia and me to sit down, and then he returned to his seat and sat down steadily.

Soon, an exhausted commander walked into the inner hall and clasped his fists at the King of Chu, "Your Highness, the King of Chu, you are back!"

"What's the situation?" asked the King of Chu.

"Huayang lost, all 50,000 defenders died for their country," said Commander Zhao, "100,000 Xiongnu vanguards have crossed Huayang and come to our Yongzhou!"

The King of Chu was stunned, "Huayang... is lost?"

"Yes!" said Commander Zhao.

"No! This is impossible!" The King of Chu stood up suddenly and looked at him excitedly, "Huayang City is high and thick, and the 50,000 troops led by the guard general Chen Meng are all elites of our army! The Huns have no powerful weapons to attack the city, how can they take Huayang?!"

"The Huns did not have any powerful weapons to attack the city, but there were strange people in their army," said Commander Zhao. "The last general found out that during this southern expedition, the Huns Guoman Da Shanyu brought a strange woman from the Western Regions. This woman was unparalleled in appearance and proficient in extraordinary skills. Before the Huns attacked the city last night, this woman stepped on the black clouds and practiced in the air. My Huayang defenders suddenly lost their combat effectiveness and all collapsed on the city wall. The Huns died taking the opportunity to climb the city wall and opened the city gate. Huayang lost... "

"The magic technique?" King Chu frowned.

"Yes!" Commander Zhao's eyes turned red, "Strange art!"

The King of Chu subconsciously looked at Lin Xia and me.

I stood up and clasped my fists, "Your Highness, don't worry, I will destroy this witch for you!"

"Okay!" The King of Chu stood up and ordered Commander Zhao, "You go and rest."

"Your Highness, the Huns' army will be at the city tomorrow morning," said Commander Zhao, "My army needs to prepare early!"

The King of Chu nodded, "I have my own arrangements!"

Commander Zhao clasped his fists, "Yes! He will leave at the end!"

He took a few steps back and turned around and walked out of the inner hall.

The King of Chu waited for him to go out before he breathed a sigh of relief.

He looked at me, "Sir, should I wait for the Huns here or take the initiative to attack, please make a decision for me."

"Take the initiative", I said calmly.

He thought for a while and nodded, "Okay! I will summon all the generals to prepare a large army. After dark, I will leave the city and advance north to fight against the Huns!"

He looked at us, "Please rest in the mansion with Mr. Lin, and later, follow me to go to war!"

"Okay", we both said in unison.

He turned his head and ordered his subordinates, "Trust Mr. Lin and Miss Lin to the back house, and do not neglect."

"Yes!" said the official respectfully.

We clasped our fists at the King of Chu and left the inner hall with the official.

When we arrived at the back house, the official arranged a very sophisticated room for us and then ordered someone to bring us some food and drinks.

After the arrangement was made, he stood up and said goodbye.

The maids also retreated, and only Lin Xia and I were left in the room.

I looked at the wine and rice on the table. It was very rich, but unfortunately I still couldn't eat it.

"Let's have some tea," I said to her.

"Okay", she waved her hand gently and formed two cups of hot tea.

I picked it up, took a few sips, put down the tea bowl, and let out a long sigh.

Lin Xia looked at me, "It seems that we have to help him fight this battle."

I nodded.

"The problem is this win or lose," she said, "The King of Chu and the Huns are both illusions. Who do you think will trap us, the King of Chu? Or the Huns?"

"I'm thinking about this question," I said, "From the previous events, the King of Chu should represent the power that traps us. In this way, we should help the Huns. Moreover, when we meet the lower, the lower one is inferior, and the superior one is in power. Now it seems that the King of Chu is obviously at a disadvantage. Does that mean that we should choose the Huns?"

I looked at her.

"I also think I should choose the Huns," she said.

I smiled knowingly and nodded, "But if this happens, we have to be sorry to the King of Chu."

"Actually, have you discovered that since we were trapped in this world, all events are testing us with humanity?" She looked at me.

"What do you say?" I asked.

"First of all, it's the matter of Grand Marshal Sun," she said, "He asked us to exorcise evil spirits and save her daughter. We should be trusted by others and be loyal to others. But if we really do that, we will be trapped; then it's the matter of Hu Fu. As the prince, I am the princess, the emperor ordered us to lead the army to fight. In the middle, some of my two brothers intend to rebel. They are my brothers, and I should be concerned about brotherhood, and all judgments will ultimately point to Lin Zuo. If I kill Lin Zuo, the actual killing of Lin You, and in that case, we will be trapped."

I nodded, "Continue."

"Then it's the matter of the King of Chu," she said, "From the current information, the King of Chu is our friend in the plot and respects us very much. And although we are trapped in the illusion, we have been the prince and princess of this dynasty, and have some feelings for the Great Zhou Empire. The Huns are foreign enemies and the King of Chu is a compatriot. We should help our compatriots, defeat the Huns, resist foreign enemies for the Great Zhou, and protect the mother country. But if we really do this..."

"Then we will become heroes of the Great Zhou Empire and the guest of the shogunate of the King of Chu, and we will never be able to live without this place again," I said.

"So every event is against our human nature," she said, "This is the most terrifying place..."

"Yes," I sighed, "If you hadn't reinterpreted the hexagram and, with our personalities, any incident would have trapped us here..."

"So don't feel sorry for King Chu." She looked at me, "He is fake, Xiaojun, An Yu, Ye Qian, Keer, and Gao Ying, they are the real, they are all waiting for you..."

"What about you?" I asked.

She avoided my gaze and said, "We have two ways to help the Huns. Let's study it..."

I held her hand, "Lin Xia..."

She stopped talking, turned her head and let out a light breath.

"Answer my question", I stared at her.

She was silent for a while, raised her head, looked at me, and nodded.

"What does nod mean?" I asked on purpose.

"I'm waiting for you," she said with a blushing face, "I've been waiting for you..."

I felt like I had eaten honey in my heart. I nodded with a smile, and subconsciously clenched her hand.

She gently pushed my hand away and said, "Tell me the truth..."
