Chapter 127: Reclaiming Military Power
Chen Sheng didn't care about Wu Guang's threat, raised his head and fiddled with his fingers, and soon several people rushed out of the crowd, and entered Wu Guang's room according to Chen Sheng's instructions to search for a good look, and soon someone came out of it holding a dagger stained with suspicious blood.
Seeing the dagger, Wu Guang was also surprised, and Zhang Bo looked at each other, both of them were two monks and puzzled, Wu Guang was born poor, once he flew into the sky, he did like to collect and loot some rare treasures to play with by his side, but he didn't have the slightest impression of this dagger, it wasn't his thing suddenly appeared in his room, and it was not a good thing to think about.
The man holding the dagger knelt at Chen Sheng's feet and reported word by word: "Tell your lord!" The subordinates found this dagger under the pillow in Lord Wu's room, and the blade of the knife matched the wound on your shoulder. ”
Chen Sheng glanced at the pale Wu Guang, stretched out his hand to take the dagger into his hand, and confirmed that this dagger was the thing held by the assassin who assassinated him, Chen Sheng couldn't help but sneer, threw it at Wu Guang's feet, and said lightly: "Lord Wu is really a good actor, if you hadn't found the murderous thing from your room, you would have fooled it, and now that the physical evidence has been found, I see if you have anything else to say!" ”
So many eyes in the courtyard were all focused on Wu Guang's body for a moment, even if he was frank in his heart, he couldn't help but be a little flustered at this moment, and finally stabilized his mind before he picked up the dagger and defended himself incoherently: "This, this thing is not mine, and I really didn't find someone to assassinate you, this, this must be framed by someone!" It must be so! ”
To be honest, Chen Sheng would not believe a word of these words, after all, no one in this city except Wu Guang would want to harm him like this, seeing that the evidence was on the surface, Wu Guang still refused to admit it, Chen Sheng was not in a hurry at all, after all, if he was exposed, he would definitely not admit it.
Quietly looked at Wu Guang for a long time, until he broke out in a cold sweat, Chen Sheng smiled, took the dagger in Wu Guang's hand, and said: "Look at our Lord Wu, you and I brothers rebelled in Daze Township, and you were very majestic when you led the soldiers to kill the officers and launch a mutiny, and now you are scared like this for this little "little misunderstanding", and you are not afraid of being laughed at by outsiders." ”
"Yes, that's a misunderstanding! Misunderstand. Hearing Chen Sheng say this, Wu Guang didn't hold it anymore, and hurriedly followed the other party to get rid of his suspicion.
The army was about to be dispatched, and Chen Sheng knew that he could not make an internal conflict with Wu Guang at this time to make the enemy benefit, even if he wanted to get rid of him, he would now have to whitewash the peace in front of his subordinates.
Looking at Wu Guang's stupid appearance, Chen Sheng couldn't help but regret a little that he had found such a person to cooperate with, if he had met Liu Kan earlier, maybe the two of them would have swallowed the entire land of the Qin Dynasty in their stomachs long ago, where would they still be clever with Wu Guang here.
Thinking of Liu Kan, Chen Sheng couldn't help but feel ashamed again, he valued Liu Kan so much, he did not hesitate to reward him with his beloved white jade plate, but he was not taken to heart by the other party, and on the night of the wedding, he fled from Chen County with a group of henchmen, betrayed himself and at the same time threw all the mess of the army in Xianyang to himself, so that he was laughed at by the world, and how could he not let him be jealous to eat his blood!
With a long sigh, Chen Sheng gradually retracted the killing intent in his eyes, turned around and threw the dagger back to Wu Guang, and said coldly: "Although this is a misunderstanding, outsiders will inevitably think that it is you Wu Guang who disobeys me as a general, so in order to stabilize the rebel army, I think Lord Wu should rest for a while for the time being, and the public duty of defending the city will be handed over to Wang Zemian, I don't know what objections Lord Wu has?" ”
Wu Guang is almost about to be set aside by Chen Sheng now, and the only soldiers who can be deployed in his hands are the soldiers who defend the city, but he doesn't want a small "assassin" incident to be taken advantage of by Chen Sheng to seize the only right in his hands, if he really lets go of Chen Sheng's intentions this time, I am afraid that after this matter is over, the only troops that can be mobilized in his hands will be his own slaves.
In troubled times, military strength is more important than any civilian gold and silver treasure, if it is gone, there is almost no need to fight between him and Chen Sheng to be doomed to success or failure, how can Wu Guang be willing!
But tonight, Chen Sheng led people to search for such "physical evidence" in his own house with great fanfare, if he should not argue with him, it is undoubtedly leaving a handle for the other party, and he is only afraid of losing more under the pressure step by step.
Zhang Bo usually has a lot of ghost ideas, but he doesn't dare to say anything more after this battle, so he can only keep giving Wu Guang a look, persuading him not to make a foolish argument with Chen Sheng at this time.
Seeing Wu Guang's hesitation, Chen Sheng swept him up and down while covering his injuries, and continued: "Although you and I brothers rebelled together, we still have to distinguish between the main and secondary points, I think it is better to restrain a little bit in the future when you have excess luxury in the mansion, after all, Lord Wu is just a captain, no matter how you can't overshadow me as a general, I didn't say it in the past because I wanted you to notice it yourself, but now it seems that I still have to mention it for my brother." ”
Wu Guang's face turned pale, and he understood that Chen Sheng had something to say, what he wanted to restrain himself was just this house, and he clearly referred to what he usually did.
At this moment, Wu Guang suddenly understood the gap between himself and Chen Sheng, it turned out that he had deliberately befriended all the soldiers, co-opted strategists, and installed spies, Chen Sheng knew it, he knew but he didn't say it, he just watched himself like a clown jumping off the beam and dreaming of fighting for power.
After such a long time of hard work was broken by Chen Sheng, Wu Guang's heart was like being stuffed into a big stone, and it was so heavy that people were depressed, and under the forced gaze of Chen Sheng's eyes, he couldn't help but take two steps back, if Zhang Bo hadn't helped people in time, he would definitely make a big joke in front of everyone.
Seeing that the person was already showing a downward trend, he walked directly to Wu Guang's side, leaned over and said softly: "It seems that this assassin is not here to ask for my life, he is only afraid that it is Lord Wu's life." ”
With a light smile and a distance, Chen Sheng withdrew his gaze from Wu Guang with disdain, and said to the soldiers behind him with a wave of his hand: "This assassin is very clever and deliberately framed our Lord Wu to sow discord among the rebels, let's hurry up and search elsewhere, tonight I disturbed Lord Wu and caused him to be frightened and sick, today I will take back the military power of the soldiers defending the city and let Lord Wu rest for a few days, and the most important thing is to take care of your body." ”
