Chapter 1163 Assassinate the Duke to Kill the King
The camp of the Eastern Army has always been in full swing, but today it suddenly changed its appearance. The entire camp was shrouded in a terrifying atmosphere.
The solemn and luxurious Pingxi King's Central Army headquarters had three steps and one post, five steps and one whistle, full of armored soldiers, holding bright swords, guns, and muskets in their hands, lined up from the gate of the headquarters to the tent gate, and from time to time, a commander was in a hurry to enter and exit the tent.
On the road leading from the front camp to the fief of King Pingxi, the cavalry rode their horses and raised the dust that covered the sky and the sun. Afterwards, teams of soldiers rushed out.
Wu Sangui mobilized the troops and suddenly withdrew his troops, which immediately attracted the attention of Anding Gong Chen Fu and a group of imperial guards.
They were not fools. During this sensitive period, Wu Sangui withdrew his troops to return to his fief without notifying them, indicating that he was determined to rebel and no longer had any scruples.
The situation was very serious, and Chen Fu decided to return to the capital immediately to report to the court. Of course, he wanted to run away more.
However, Hong Shihuang, the captain of the imperial guards, refused to let him go and asked him to find Wu Sangui first to hurt Chen Li, and told him not to be ungrateful.
Chen Funing refused to obey, saying that as a senior official of the court and the emperor's imperial envoy, he should report the important matters to the emperor as soon as possible and let the court prepare early.
The two argued for a while, and finally Chen Fuyan said, "Nephew Shihuang, you are a clan of the royal family. You are responsible for guarding the territory and have Shangfang's sword to protect you. Why don't you go to Wu Sangui to find the pros and cons, so that I can take the opportunity to escape?"
Seeing that he was so timid, Hong Shihuang secretly despised himself. Thinking of his identity as a royal family, he immediately straightened his rocker and raised his head and said, "Since that's the case, you go. I'll go to Wu Sangui's camp myself, so that this villain dares not act rashly!"
"Okay! Nice nephew Gao Yi!" Chen Fu clasped his fists.
After everything was settled, Chen Fu packed up his fine lines and waited patiently for the opportunity to take the opportunity to escape.
Hong Shihuang led a group of imperial guards to the headquarters of the Central Army. On the way, they saw Wu Sangui's soldiers guarding each intersection in the camp. Every few dozen steps away, there was also a lieutenant with swords and guns on horseback patrolling.
Hong Shihuang was secretly worried, but he was afraid that Mr. Anding could no longer go out...
But it’s good that he can’t get out. He didn’t plan to go out at all. Let’s see how I slander the King of the West and calm a storm!
When they rode their horses to the headquarters of the central army, the group was stopped by the previous chess and card officer again: "The main site of the headquarters, the civil servants fell into the sedan chair, and the military generals dismounted!"
Hong Shihuang said loudly: "I am a royal family and I have given Shangfang sword to you. Who dares to stop me?"
"This is King Pingxi..."
"Get out!"
As he said that, he whipped the horse whip, broke through the gate, and broke through two rows of golden armored guards, and went straight to Wu Sangui's central army tent.
Seeing that he was holding Shangfang's sword in his hand, the golden armor guards did not dare to take action, but just surrounded him vigilantly.
Hong Shihuang remained calm in the face of danger, calmed down and reported loudly to the tent: "Hong Shihuang, the prince of Pingyuan of Dadong Kingdom, was given the emperor's sword to the Shangfang, and pay a visit to the King of Pingxi!"
After saying that, without waiting for the page, he lifted his robe and walked in with great pride.
In the big tent, the atmosphere was even more stern.
Wu Sangui sat upright on the chair of yellow satin embroidered dragon and silver. Several trusted generals and counselors were surrounded by two rows of fierce guards, holding precious swords in their hands, and looking at Dandan.
Hong Shihuang was stunned at first, then pretended to be calm, turned a blind eye to them, and bowed directly to worship.
After saying hello, he stood up without waiting for Wu Sangui to speak, and found a seat on the side to sit down, really treating himself as a royal family.
Wu Sangui stared at him for a long time before a sentence burst out from his teeth: "Boy, you are so brave. How dare Wu Ling trespass the Central Army tent! I wonder if the warlords here are strict?"
Hong Shihuang laughed loudly: "The words of King Pingxi are wrong! This king is the royal family and his nephew..."
A cold light flashed in Wu Sangui's eyes, he slowly stood up and interrupted him: "You just said that the Imperial Sword is Given to Shangfang? Are you an imperial envoy?"
According to Hong Chengchou's decree, Chen Fu, the Duke of Anding, was the imperial envoy and took over the 150,000 troops on the front line, but it was not said that Hong Shihuang was.
Hong Shihuang shook his head: "I am not an imperial envoy, but I am better than an imperial envoy!"
"Fart! He's just a dog who has a father but no father. He dares to pretend to be an imperial envoy!"
Wu Sangui swept to the door with a cold look: "Where is Chen Fu? Go and I, please come to An Dinggong!"
Hong Shihuang is the son of Hong Chengchou's second brother Hong Chengfeng. Because Hong Chengfeng died early, Hong Shihuang has always been brought by Hong Chengchou and regarded him as his own son. He was granted the title of Prince at a young age, and he just waited for great contributions before he was awarded the title of Prince.
After being scolded as an orphan in public, Hong Shihuang's face turned pale and furious, shouting: "I am following the order. I will ask King Pingxi, what do you mean by your intention to withdraw your troops privately?"
"Who told you that I have withdrawn my troops privately?" Wu Sangui smiled.
Hong Shihuang was stunned, frightened and angry, and at the same time he felt a little suspicious, worried that this was a normal military operation, so he asked: "Where is the King of Pingxi mobilizing troops to fight?"
Before he finished speaking, the counselor Hu Guoxiang shouted, "Stop talking, how can you ask questions about military affairs at will?"
"I can't ask what military affairs are important?"
As he said that, Hong Shihuang put the Shangfang sword in his hand.
His behavior made Wu Sangui and others even more heartbroken.
"Report, Prince, Mr. Anding was assassinated in the tent!"
"What! Assassination?" Hong Shihuang was shocked.
He said goodbye to Chen Fu. How long has it been since Chen Fu disappeared? He is the imperial envoy of the court!
Hong Shihuang stared at Wu Sangui. Before he could speak, he heard Wu Sangui's face showing "shock" and pointed at Hong Shihuang and said, "Okay, Prince Pingyuan, you actually killed Anding Gong!"
"Um?"
Hong Shihuang was stunned, as if he didn't understand the logic here, and even asked stupidly: "Why should I kill Anding Gong?"
Wu Sangui's personal soldiers who reported the message helped him answer this question: "Report to the prince that two guards killed Anding Gong and were taken down by the patrol team in public!"
"impossible!"
Hong Shihuang shouted, "He left the two guards to protect Chen Fu and ran away, how could he kill him the other way around?"
It must be the one who killed Wu Sangui, who framed the blame!
He pointed at Wu Sangui and shouted angrily: "Wu Sangui, as a vassal king, you have a strong army and ignore the court. Today, you dare to kill the officials of the court to frame the king. Now the Japanese king will ask Shang Fangjian to kill you and eliminate the harm to the country!"
As he said that, he drew out his sword and stepped forward to chop people.
Wu Sangui laughed a few times, just waved his hand casually.
Two rows of fierce personal guards immediately stepped forward and knocked down Shang Fang's sword, pressed Hong Shihuang, who was powerless, and put all the imperial guards he brought.
Chapter completed!
