Chapter 490: My Uncle Can Still Trick Me
Xiang Shaolong was very angry and the consequences were serious. In the eyes of this group of noble lords, all non-aristocratic people are no different from slaves.
Including the so-called public ministers. Although the Eight Great Gentlemen have protected the Xiang family for thousands of years and sweated blood and sweat for the Eight Great Gentlemen, in the eyes of the Xiang family, they are nothing more than slaves.
As long as the book reader is a slave, he can live and die. In the view of the Xiang family, the Chen family's thousands of years of glory and wealth were bestowed upon and brought by the Xiang family. But now the Chen family actually wants to stand up and make the decision on their own, to overthrow and overthrow their master, themselves. Becoming a master is absolutely not allowed in Xiang Shaolong's opinion.
Murderous intent soars into the sky! Xiang Shaolong had never felt such anger before. It's like an ant daring to provoke the dragon.
Needless to say, Ant's strength was great, but the whole process made him feel extremely humiliated.
"Did he really say that?" Xiang Shaolong's eyes were full of murderous intent and his eyes were red.
"The villain never said anything false." The guard said respectfully.
"Okay! Okay! Okay! If the Chen family wants to rebel, then I will kill all the Chen family first, then let Chen Sheng in, and trap and kill the traitor Chen Sheng." Xiang Shaolong's eyes were filled with contentment. It was cold: "Please come here, Master of the Zongren Mansion." Not long after, Xiang Zhuang arrived.
Seeing the furious Xiang Shaolong, Xiang Zhuang was surprised. He didn't know what happened that made Xiang Shaolong so angry.
"I wonder why the king is angry?" Xiang Zhuang asked. Xiang Zhuang's attitude was very respectful, because Xiang Shaolong was now the nominal head of the Dayu Kingdom, instead of the 'grandson' who went to his house to beg for mercy.
"The Chen family is about to rebel. Chen Sheng was born in the Chen family of Daliang City. Now that Chen Sheng has become a bit better, the Chen family of Dayu Kingdom has unexpected thoughts. The sparrow also wants to become a phoenix, and the slave also wants to become the master. It's simply It's ridiculous! What a big joke! It's so funny." Xiang Shaolong's eyes were full of disdain: "This matter requires royal experts to come forward and suppress the Chen family to avoid causing trouble. Once Chen Sheng's army really enters the city, we It will inevitably take a little more effort.”
"Please ask Xiang Caizhu to come forward. One Xiang Caizhu is enough to deal with them." Xiang Zhuang replied directly without thinking.
"Xiang Caizhu is missing." Xiang Shaolong frowned. Xiang Zhuang's eyelids twitched when he heard this: "I'm going to invite the ancestors of the Dayu royal family, and the masters of the clan are also preparing secretly."
"Your Majesty, you can introduce the key figures of the Chen family into the deep palace one by one, and then we can defeat them one by one." Xiang Zhuang was such a dog, and he immediately thought of a way to deal with the Chen family: "As long as the leaders of the Chen family are Everything has been sorted out, and the next thing will not be difficult to handle. When the time comes, we will ask for the secret code, set up a dragnet, open the city gate and trick Chen Sheng in, and the rebellion in Dayu will end." Xiang Shaolong nodded, agreeing with Xiang Zhuang's words.
Xiang Zhuang left in a hurry. Not long after, the masters from the royal family of the Dayu Kingdom were already in place. Xiang Shaolong began to summon the various stewards and masters from the Chen family.
The Xiang family is a noble and the master! Do you still need a reason to summon your own servants? Of course not. When the powerful stewards of the Chen family were summoned to the palace one by one, and then taken down with lightning speed, by the time the outside world realized that something was wrong, it was already too late, and the masters of the Chen family had already been suppressed. .
Then Xiang Zhuang sent blood relatives of the Xiang family to capture the Chen family's warrior army and successfully took over the city.
The inner palace is brightly lit, and the torches are like long dragons, illuminating the entire square as bright as day. Thousands of men from the Chen family were all hooked to the bones by iron chains, and they fell to their knees one by one, with panic in their eyes.
Xiang Shaolong sat in front of the square, tapping the seat with his fingers, and the sound was like a sledgehammer, hitting everyone's hearts.
The dozen or so elders of the Chen family who were leading the group all fell to their knees with wretched figures and ashen faces. The head of the Chen family was killed by Cui Yu. Now the Chen family has not elected a suitable head. Now the entire Chen family is managed by more than a dozen elders.
"Chen Hui." Xiang Shaolong turned his gaze, landed on the older man, and shouted.
The old man endured the pain and raised his head: "Kowtow to the king."
"The Xiang family treats you well. Although they have not given you the status of aristocrats, they have also given you privileges. The treatment you enjoy is no worse than that of the aristocrats, so why rebel?" Xiang Shaolong asked. .
Chen Hui did not complain. The rebellion was a matter for the entire Chen family. He didn't even defend himself. Although he didn't know what went wrong, now that Xiang Shaolong has taken action, it means there is a mountain of ironclad evidence.
"It's inevitable for people to make mistakes sometimes." Chen Hui smiled bitterly.
"Tell me the secret code for meeting Chen Sheng tonight." Xiang Shaolong's voice was full of unquestionable orders. Chen Hui was silent when he heard this, because he knew how the Xiang family treated traitors.
Since the Chen family has rebelled, it will be extremely difficult for them to survive.
"Don't want to say it?" Looking at Chen Hui's expression, Xiang Shaolong asked.
"After all, will the Chen family's old, young, women and children survive?" Chen Hui asked. Xiang Shaolong was silent.
"As long as your Majesty allows me, the Chen family, the old and young, the young, the young, and the children to survive, I am willing to explain everything." Chen Hui looked at Xiang Shaolong with his eyes.
Xiang Shaolong is a noble, and more importantly, the leader of a country. As long as Xiang Shaolong speaks, the Chen family is still willing to believe it.
Facing the conditions proposed by Chen Hui, Xiang Shaolong sneered, and the next moment he pulled out a long sword from nowhere in his hand and slashed Chen Hui's head.
Blood splattered and his head rolled on the ground like a ball.
"Bring it up." Xiang Shaolong ordered, and there was a cry in the distance, and he saw a group of old, young, women and children, strung up in strings with ropes, staggering over.
"Listen, all the children of the Chen family who are willing to atone for their sins can save the lives of their families. If not, the lonely king will send your Chen family on their way today. Even though Chen Sheng and you are the same The clan, but they are distant relatives that cannot be hit with eight sticks. Is it worth it to risk all of your parents, wives, children, brothers and sisters for Chen Sheng?" Xiang Shaolong's voice was full of confusion: "As long as you wait If you are willing to repent and make meritorious deeds, I will never make things difficult for your family. Even if someone among you can provide the secret code to contact Chen Sheng, I will also grant you glory and wealth." After Xiang Shaolong finished speaking, someone had already left. He crawled out from the crowd and said staggeringly: "Your Majesty, I have been with Chen Sheng for five generations and have nothing to do with him. I am loyal to your Majesty and will never dare to betray you. Please show mercy to your Majesty."
"Your Majesty, I don't know that Chen Sheng, but we are distant relatives for three generations. Please show mercy to me, Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty, although I am a cousin to Chen Sheng, I will never support Chen Sheng's rebellion. I know Chen Sheng's plan and I also know Chen Sheng's secret code."
"Your Majesty, I am willing to make meritorious deeds and kill the traitor Chen Sheng. I also ask Your Majesty to let go of the relatives in my family."
"..." A group of Chen family members bowed their heads and expressed their loyalty, their voices full of helplessness.
Xiang Shaolong looked at the people present with his eyes, and a smile appeared in his eyes: "That's right. As long as you can make meritorious deeds and kill the traitor Chen Sheng, the lone king can retain your status as a nobleman of the Chen family."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!" Everyone knelt down and kowtowed. Xiang Zhuang stood in a dark corner in the distance, watching Xiang Shaolong's movements, and couldn't help but sigh: "Xiang Shaolong is indeed a qualified king, but it's a pity that the sky is not on him. Now is a troubled time, and what is needed is more like Xiang Yu. A brave and invincible general. If he had a sister like Xiang Caizhu, he might be able to win the game. Unfortunately, Xiang Shaolong does not have that blessing. The most important thing Xiang Zhuang feels is Cui Yu, and Cui Yu has no choice Supporting Xiang Shaolong made him feel jealous. Otherwise, if he really supported Xiang Shaolong wholeheartedly, he might not be able to give Xiang Yu a try. As the night got darker, the entire capital of Dayu Kingdom was filled with serious killings. At the east gate, countless children of the Chen family walked back to the city. They looked at the rebel base camp outside the city with complicated expressions. This was the closest the Chen family had to a noble position, but it was a pity that they didn't know how. The news was leaked, and the Xiang family found out in advance. Xiang Shaolong's eyes were full of seriousness, and he wore gold armor and stood quietly in the darkness. The shouts of killing were still loud in the dark night, and Chen Sheng refused to stop, in the middle of the night Still forcing the refugees to attack the city. Behind the rebel army, Chen Sheng looked at the corpses that kept falling from the city wall, with a look of helplessness in his eyes. There was nothing he could do! There was no way. Those people would not consume enough rations every day if they did not die. It is not enough to support him to defeat the Yu Kingdom. Now is the time for Chen Sheng to train his troops. Those who can survive in this meat grinder are the soldiers who are truly suitable for him. They are the real soldiers, tigers and wolves. teacher.
"Kill! Kill! Kill until despair! Kill until the dawn of rebirth." There was a trace of tiredness in Chen Sheng's voice.
"What time is it now?" Chen Sheng asked.
"It's the second watch." The guard replied. Chen Sheng looked towards the city with his eyes, a look of seriousness in his eyes: "Is there a signal?"
"The lights on the top of the city flickered three times." The guard said.
"First send the elite to seize the city gate, and be sure to hold the city gate firmly in your hands. Then send the refugees to rush in. If there is any trap inside, there will be a chance to maneuver." Chen Sheng gave instructions.
The guard nodded and then went down to give orders. At midnight, accompanied by a rumbling sound, the east gate of the capital of Dayu suddenly opened, and the children of the Chen family appeared at the east gate covered in blood.
"My nephew Chen Sheng, the east gate has been captured. Send troops quickly to capture it. Otherwise, once the Xiang family reacts, all our efforts will be wasted." An elder from the Chen family stood in front of the city gate with a machete in his hand. shouted from the corpse.
Although Chen Sheng was standing at the back, he could clearly see that the bloody faces standing under the city gate were his uncles and peers who were familiar with him in the past.
"Kill! Seize the east gate and destroy Dayu Kingdom right before your eyes. Once Dayu is destroyed, you will be the heroes, and each of you can be named a noble. You are my great contribution to the founding of the country. The women, money, and money in the city, whatever you want, You will be of use." Chen Sheng scolded, confusing people's hearts.
The next moment, refugees and rebels poured in like a tide. Looking at the capital city of Dayu in front of him, Zhang Liang didn't know why, but suddenly he felt that the majestic city in front of him was like a terrifying beast crawling on the ground, opening its bloody mouth as if to swallow everyone in it.
"General Chen, it seems something is not going well." Zhang Liang said behind Chen Sheng. Chen Sheng turned to look at Zhang Liang, only to see Zhang Liang stretched out his hand and kept calculating: "A sign of great misfortune! A sign of great misfortune! The capital city of Dayu cannot be entered."
"If you want to conquer Dayu Kingdom, is there no danger?" Chen Sheng replied calmly: "Dayu has been a country for five thousand years, and its accumulated heritage is unknown. If there is no danger, I will feel strange."
"No! It's not as dangerous as you imagined." Zhang Liang was a little anxious, and his fingers almost started to smoke when he pinched them. But he couldn't figure out the cause and effect involving hundreds of millions of people for a while.
"The general seems to be in danger of falling." Zhang Liang looked at Chen Sheng, his eyes full of anxiety.
"No matter what is in the capital of Dayu, I will attack the capital of Dayu. You know, I have no retreat. If I want to establish a country, I can only become a prince king and climb to the top on the corpse of Dayu. ." There was a trace of determination in Chen Sheng's voice: "Either I will destroy Dayu Kingdom, or Dayu Kingdom will destroy me. There is no other way."
"But... what I mean is that we can postpone the attack on the city for one day. There is no need for today." Zhang Liang said hurriedly.
Chen Sheng sighed leisurely, his eyes full of bitterness: "Did you see the man standing at the city gate? That's my uncle. The Chen family risked their lives to fight for a chance for me! A chance to open the city gate! If I miss today, I really don’t have the confidence to invade the capital of Dayu. Although there are only a few people from the eight major noble families, they are all experts and elites, and there is a city wall as a natural barrier, so we ordinary soldiers cannot invade it at all."
"As long as we break through the city gate, we will have hope. No matter how powerful the martial arts master is, as long as he is not a man of bronze and iron, and tens of thousands of people pile up on him, as long as one person hits his vitals, he will die." Chen Sheng's voice was full of sighs. : "Besides, the Chen family has staked their own fate. Do you think they will harm me? Dayu Kingdom is currently facing internal and external troubles, so it is a good time to change the dynasty. In three to five months, Xiang Shaolong will secure his position. Throne, I want to conquer the capital of Dayu, but I'm afraid it won't be possible by then." After listening to Chen Sheng's reasons, Zhang Liang fell silent, because he knew that what Chen Sheng said was right.
Now is the best time for Chen Sheng to attack the city. Once Xiang Shaolong calms the people in the capital of Dayu and truly secures his position, even though he has tens of millions of rebels, he can only be used as cannon fodder.
"Please help me, sir. If I can succeed, in the future, the entire country of Dayu will worship your lineage and help you survive the calamity of the Dharma Realm!" Chen Sheng bowed deeply.
