Chapter 304: The Man Behind the Scenes
The two beauties left the warm pavilion, and Xiao Yao, who was alone, fell into deep thought: I didn't even know that I fled to Zhou and assisted Yuwen Yong in killing Yuwen Hu, why did Xiao Shilian know about it? In the Chen Kingdom, except for Gao Yuan and Zu Yuan, who knew that I had escaped to the Zhou Kingdom, the only ones I had seen when I came back were Zhou Luo and Wu Mingche!
Zu Yuan and they have always been cautious, and they will definitely not leak out about me, so even Miaomiao and Ke'er don't know about my escape to Zhou Kingdom, so only Zhou Luo and Wu Mingche are left!
That's right, Wu Mingche! It was Wu Mingche who sent a messenger in advance, and before I came back, he had already reported a lot of my situation to Emperor Chen Xu, and Chen Xu should have gathered some military generals to discuss this matter! According to Xiao Shilian's connections, even if he is promoted to the third level, he will not have the opportunity to participate in the discussion of this matter, so who will tell him?
Recommended by the prince, he was promoted three levels in a row? Prince? Could it be that Chen Shubao told him about this incident?
Right! It must be Chen Shubao! When he was in the imperial study, Chen Shubao, who was the crown prince, was also present, which means that he also knew about my assassination of Yuwenhu in Zhou Kingdom! However, why did Chen Shubao tell Xiao Shilian such a secret matter?
Is it because of the dance? Let him, Uncle Chen's eldest brother, be reused? Or this Xiao Shilian has already colluded with the prince!
Xiao Yao came to his senses in an instant, if Xiao Shilian had taken refuge with Chen Shubao early in the morning, then all this would have made sense!
At the beginning, he was appointed as a captain of the infantry battalion by Wu Mingche, and Xiao Shilian, who had never had any official fortunes before, was suddenly promoted to a cavalry captain to participate in the Northern Expedition of the Chen army.
Then he has been winning and being promoted, but Xiao Shilian, who has a mediocre record, has also been promoted, and it must be Uncle Chen who supports him behind him! And when the Chen army occupied Shouyang, Wu Mingche suddenly sent himself and Xiao Moke's soldiers to attack Chenliu County and Runan County respectively, after his own soldiers occupied Chenliu County without blood, they have been attacking Yingchuan County step by step, steadily and steadily, according to the strength of their forward brigade, even if Gao Chang Power led 30,000 people to guard Yingchuan County, he could easily defeat Gao Changgong just like in Xuyi County, but the accident suddenly appeared!
Right! Looking back now, why did I fall into the trap of Gao Changgong and be ambushed by him, in addition to being a traitor to Zhang Dabao, the most important thing is that Xiao Shilian rushed to me for help, asking me to rush to Linying County immediately to rescue Xiao Moke, who was surrounded by tens of thousands of Qi troops!
When he heard that Xiao Moke was surrounded by the Qi army and fell into a desperate situation, he also lost his previous composure and calmness, and under Xiao Shilian's constant urging, he even risked dividing the forward brigade, and rushed to Linying County with only the cavalry battalion and musket battalion, leaving the artillery battalion that was slow to move behind with artillery ammunition and various baggage, and was surrounded by Gao Changgong!
As a result, it was impossible for the artillery battalion, which had almost no mobility to break through quickly, and in the end, it could only watch itself surrounded by tens of thousands of Qi troops! Li Nong originally wanted to rely on artillery defense, hold his position, and then wait for rescue, but the result was that Zhang Dabao, a traitor, took the opportunity to blow up all the gunpowder and put the artillery battalion in a desperate situation.
Could it be that this Xiao Shilian not only took refuge in Chen Shubao, but also colluded with Gao Changgong to calculate me together? Otherwise, things wouldn't have been so coincidental! Xiao Yao rubbed his temples, a little unable to believe this speculation! But when I think of this Xiao Shilian's usual attitude towards himself, either sneering or looking at him coldly, it can be seen that he doesn't like himself very much from the bottom of his heart, so it is normal for him and Uncle Chen to collude and calculate themselves together!
However, although this Xiao Shilian usually does not deal with himself, but looking at his style, words and deeds, he should also be a loyal and patriotic person, so how could he betray Chen Guo and collude with Gao Changgong, the enemy of Qi State? Could it be that he colluded with Gao Changgong, but Chen Shubao colluded with Gao Changgong, and Xiao Shilian just obeyed Chen Shubao's orders?
Unexpectedly, Uncle Chen, as the crown prince of Chen State, would collude with the enemies of Qi State, and then disadvantage himself, so that Xiao Yao's 5,000 soldiers of the forward brigade and Xiao Moke's 5,000 cavalry were severely damaged, and also disrupted his father Emperor Chen Xu's Northern Expedition to Qi and unify the Central Plains. Newcastle
Also, when Zhang Dabao was kidnapped by Gao Changgong, it also happened when Zhang Dabao took leave to return to Jinling to visit his father, and Zhang Dabao also explained to himself at that time that when the cargo ship he was responsible for escorting gunpowder funds left Jinling Wharf, he was followed by Gao Changgong's men, and then took the opportunity to kidnap him and transfer him to Xuyi County with the cargo ship! If Gao Changgong had colluded with Chen Shubao before this, then this matter can also be explained: with Chen Shubao's power in Jinling, it was easy to arrange Gao Changgong's men and horses to infiltrate Jinling City, so Gao Changgong could accurately know the details of Zhang Dabao's responsibility for escorting materials, and then defeat the enemy with one move, and quietly robbed Zhang Dabao in the big fleet!
In Xiao Yao's mind, everything became clearer and clearer: why did he fall into Gao Changgong's ambush, which not only made him taste defeat, but also caused his sweetheart to be snatched away by Uncle Chen! It turns out that all this is because Chen Shubao, the mastermind behind the scenes, is in the way!
When he chose Chen Shuling and used his title of King Xing as a cover, he was destined to become Chen Shubao's sworn enemy, and he had been on guard against Chen Shubao, but he blamed himself for being young, and he actually miscalculated and overestimated Chen Shubao's loyalty to the country as the crown prince!
"I didn't expect this Chen Shubao, in order to defeat me, he actually colluded with Gao Changgong, and pity my soldiers of the 3,000 forward battalion who fought bloodily for Chen Guo on the battlefield, but they were planted in the hands of Prince Chen Guo! And Wuhua, my beloved woman, was also taken away by him despicably, no wonder when he was in the imperial study, he didn't make much noise, just looked at me playfully, it turned out that he had been waiting to see my jokes, when he saw that I lost my subordinates, the panic of losing my beloved woman, and made him feel very accomplished and satisfied! Chen Shubao, your trick is really vicious enough, and you successfully stabbed the knife in my heart accurately and fiercely, making me so painful that I almost couldn't call *** God and almost collapsed! Xiao Yao muttered to himself.
"Chen Shubao is now the identity of the crown prince of Chen Guo, and above the court, he has now received the favor of Emperor Chen Xu, and he has taken the limelight, even Chen Shuling was suppressed by him to Xiangzhou, it seems that he can't do anything to him now! I still have to keep a low profile, I can't fight him, I have to calm down, I can't be impulsive! Wuhua agreed to marry him because of me, and I can't live up to Wuhua's heart for me! After taking a few deep breaths, Xiao Yao suppressed the anger in his heart and said through gritted teeth.
"And Xiao Shilian! Unexpectedly, he would dare to calculate even his own biological father for the sake of Chen Shubao! My father ventured to pursue the Qi army in Runan County, and committed the taboo of a lone soldier, I believe that Xiao Shilian must be playing tricks in this! and on the matter of Wuhua marrying Chen Shubao, I dare to say that you also made a lot of efforts to become Chen Shubao's eldest brother, and since then you have climbed into the royal family, and your future is bright! Hehe, you Xiao Shilian, since you don't treat me as a brother, then I don't need to worry about brotherhood for you, in the future, you will be my enemy like Chen Shubao! Xiao Yao said with a secret determination.
。。。。。。
After living in the warm pavilion of the general sugar factory for three days, Xiao Yao finally recovered his body under the careful care of Xu Miao and Song Keer, and his spirit was no longer depressed.
"Shiro, you must cheer up! Although Wuhua chose to sacrifice her happiness for everyone and married Chen Shubao, you still have me, and Sister Ke'er, we will always be by your side, so for Wuhua, for us, you must turn back to the previous Xiao Shilang who is confident in everything you do! Xu Miao encouraged Xiao Yao and said.
"Sister Miaomiao is right, Childe, you must restore the self-confidence of strategizing in the past, don't dare the enemy to use any means against you, you can resolve it between talking and laughing, so that you are the big hero in Sister Wuhua and our hearts!" Song Ke'er was also cheering for Xiao Yao and said.
"Hmmm! I promise you, if you don't dare to happen, I won't be defeated, I'm still Xiao Yao, the man of the hour who just came to Jinling and stirred up Jinling all over the city, Xiao Shilang! Xiao Yao squeezed out a smile and said.
"Shiro, we believe that you will be able to regain your old self-confidence! And although Wuhua has now become the crown princess, she is also a person with status in the palace after all, and she will definitely be able to help Shiro when the time comes, and make you the general of Chen Guo! Xu Miao saw that Xiao Yao was no longer lost, and happily continued to encourage Xiao Yao to say.
"Alas, you guys are underestimating Uncle Chen!" Xiao Yao shook his head and sighed with a wry smile, then changed the topic and said: "Don't talk about these unhappy things, now that the wood is in the boat, we can't keep struggling with these unchangeable facts!" I have nothing to do with Wuhua, so I can only hope that she can have a good time, and I believe that Wuhua doesn't want to see me lose like this! ”
"Childe, it's great that you can think like this, right! Sister Wuhua must also hope that Childe can regain his strength and then continue to deal with those bad guys, and Sister Miaomiao and I will also accompany Childe to live happily! Song Keer said happily.
"Listening to Kerr's tone, it seems that there is a sulk in my heart, who annoyed my family's Kerr, I have recovered now, I will avenge you!" Xiao Yao asked with a smile, now he needs to find someone to vent, and then vent the sulkness in his heart completely!
