Live as the emperor

Chapter 302

In the capital city, it was snowing heavily and the wind was bitterly cold.

Not long after dawn, Qianmen Street, Beijing.

Chen Guang has a handsome crown on his head, armor, a sword hanging on his waist, and riding a strong horse.

Behind him, [-] generals and soldiers were in order, waiting solemnly.

Several fast horses rushed out from the city gate, and the person in front was Chen Ang.

Arriving in front of Chen Guang, Chen Ang stopped.

"Father." Chen Guang saluted.

Chen Ang nodded slightly, without any expression on his face. He glanced around at these soldiers and said, "This expedition is of great significance. Wu Cheng is proficient in the art of war. He may be difficult to deal with. Be careful."

Chen Guang smiled and said: "This is not the first time I have gone out to fight. I know all this."

His combat experience is very rich, Chen Ang didn't say much, he just said: "Since Wu Cheng doesn't miss the past, then there is no need to be polite to him, let's kill him."

It seems that Wu Cheng's rebellion still caused great psychological trauma to Chen Ang, otherwise he would not have said such a thing.You know, this Wu Chengjing was a comrade-in-arms with Chen Ang and will fight together before.

Chen Guang has never liked to do things that keep people alive. The so-called cutting the weeds without eradicating the roots will regenerate when the spring breeze blows. Since you are kind, you must have the awareness of being killed in the future - he can rebel the first time he can't rebel Is it the second time?
Therefore, there is nothing to say about catching and killing. They all deal with the problem from their own standpoints.

On this point, Chen Ang coincided with Chen Guang, Chen Ang was terribly disappointed, while Chen Guang simply cut the weeds and rooted them out.

"Yes." Chen Guang said.

Chen Ang looked up at the sky and said, "It's getting late, let's go early."

"Ah."

Chen Guang nodded slightly, then drew out his long sword, held it up high, and shouted: "Let's go!"

There is no oath, and there is no need to see him off. For Chen Guang, there is nothing else except the weather and the time of the battle.

"Hey, have you heard that Marquis Wu rebelled? His Royal Highness is here to put down the rebellion."

Naturally, there would be many people watching such a big movement. The message of crusade against Wu Chengjing had already spread throughout the country. Now that the army was setting off, the common people who happened to catch up with this scene stood on the roadside and discussed with great interest. .

"Who is this Wu Cheng who actually rebelled? I think he is impatient."

The era when Marquis Wu became famous was before the establishment of Qianguo, and he retired after the founding of the country. Naturally, ordinary people rarely knew his deeds before. Even now that the imperial court has crusaded him, some people still don’t know who he is.

"Aren't you stupid? Isn't it rumored that the prince killed Wuhou's grandson these days? This Wu Chengjing must be that Wuhou. I heard that it was Wu Chengjing's grandson who killed innocent people indiscriminately." , His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is only doing harm to the people, but he doesn't want to repent, and even has the face to rebel."

"That's right, it was his grandson who killed someone. According to the law of this dynasty, isn't it a matter of course to kill people and pay for their lives? His Highness the Crown Prince did nothing wrong. It's not a day or two for these yamen to do a lot of evil, but I I think it's good for the prince to do so."

When Wu Cheng was spreading rumors, Chen Guang naturally wouldn't just sit idly by, but instead used an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth, fabricating the truth to be even more exaggerated and spreading it. People who heard Chen Guang's version, They all felt that even if Wu Ciyou died ten thousand times, it would not be enough.

Amidst these discussions, Chen Guang led the army out of the capital and went to Wu County.

Wu County is Wu Chengjing's base camp. Even though he is in a high position, he has not given up on cultivating and cultivating Wu County. After so many years, it has already been transformed beyond recognition by him. If he has left his hometown for many years, he will come back Time may have been lost in this Xinwu County.

At this moment, Wu Cheng was sitting upright in his ancestral house, which was as luxurious and spacious as the imperial palace, dressed in armor and with a big knife beside him, as if he had returned to the time when he was giving advice on the battlefield.

On the opposite side of him, there were dozens of people standing. They were lined up on both sides, wearing uniform uniforms, just like official uniforms, and this place seemed to be another Wenhua Palace.

If Chen Ang came here to take a look, he would be surprised to find that these dozens of people, not long ago, were still standing in his Wenhua Palace, respectful to him.

"I heard that the imperial court has sent people down? Or is it the crown prince himself?" Wu Cheng sat on his seat and said calmly, without any sense of urgency to be conscripted.

He was the first person to say: "Yes, the news from the capital has issued a statement a few days ago."

Wu Cheng snorted coldly, and said: "You have no hair on your mouth, and you can't do things well. Do you really think that after leading soldiers for a few days, you will be invincible in the world? A small place like Ge country can be easily wiped out even if a fool leads troops. .Actually overestimated, willing to provoke me."

An official said flatteringly: "That's right. Marquis Wu is said to be a god in his military skills. Since the prince dares to come, we will let him never come back."

"That's right, we've been preparing for so many years, and it's time to show our sword." Another official said with a smile.

Wu Cheng stroked his beard, sneered, and said: "Back then I fought together with him in the world, but I didn't expect him to win the throne in the end. Now that he's had enough, it's time for me to sit down too." .”

It turned out that Wu Cheng and Chen Ang were officials in the same dynasty back then, and they were both military generals. The two appeared to be in harmony on the surface, but they were also competing in secret, but later Chen Ang became a general, and Wu Cheng was actually a deputy. In the end, they didn't know Why, the throne fell into Chen Ang's hands.

Of course Wu Chengjing was unconvinced. Both of them were men of outstanding merit. Why should he become the emperor and I couldn't?It was just that when Chen Ang used thunderous means and no one could react, the power was taken by him. Even if Wu Chengjing wanted to take action, he would not have the chance.

So, although it is a concession in name, who knows how many stories happened in it?

All in all, when Chen Ang became emperor, Wu Cheng became Wuhou, and Wuhou's hometown was renamed Wujun.

Wu Chengjing, who missed the throne, naturally wouldn't just let it go. He kept a low profile and transformed Wu County bit by bit, and now it has reached a considerable scale.

But Chen Guang's beheading of Wu Ciyou became the trigger for his last revolt. After so many years of repression, the only heir was killed again. No matter what the reason was, this was inevitable.

It can be said that, on the surface, Wuhou's rebellion was forced by the Chen Guang incident, but in fact, it was also a long-planned turmoil.If not, he wouldn't have won all these court ministers over overnight, and he must have planned for a long time.
