A Xuance soldier said: "The emperor did not say that the general should be allowed to ride in the prison car. Whoever dares to insult the general today, I will fight with him!"
"Yes, we fought them!"
When Wang De saw this, he immediately said sinisterly: "The emperor sent us here to capture the general and return to Beijing. Listening to your tone, do you want to rebel?"
Some Xuance soldiers said angrily: "If you rebel, you will rebel. We are not even afraid of death for the sake of the general. What else are we afraid of?"
After Xuance's troops finished speaking, they rushed over to fight again. Seeing this, Wang De and others rolled up their sleeves and prepared to fight.
When Shen Chengshan saw this, he immediately held down the Xuance troops and said, "That's enough! Everyone, shut up. With me here, do you still dare to fight?"
Seeing Shen Chengshan's anger, Xuance's troops immediately took two steps back. Their eyes were filled with anger, but they had to endure it.
After shouting at Xuance's army, Shen Chengshan looked at Wang De again and said sternly: "Wang De, the emperor just summoned the general back to the capital and never said he would deal with him. How dare you falsely convey the emperor's orders, insult loyal ministers, and even Deliberately provoking infighting among everyone, disrupting military discipline, and shaking military morale, you are simply committing an unforgivable crime. After returning to Beijing, I, the general, must report this matter to the emperor and let the emperor deal with you!"
Hearing this, Wang De's eyes flashed with panic.
He did not expect that Shen Chengshan would report this matter to the emperor, and he would definitely die.
Thinking of this, he suddenly clenched the dagger hidden in his sleeve and stared at Shen Chengshan with murderous intent.
When the Xuance soldiers heard what Shen Chengshan said, they all said angrily: "Yes! Wang De took the lead in spreading rumors, destroying unity, and insulting the general. He should be executed!"
"Kill him, kill him, Lieutenant General Shen, you will deal with him now!" Xuance's soldiers shouted excitedly.
Seeing everyone's excitement, Shen Chengshan hurriedly turned around, patted Xuance's troops on the shoulders, and said: "Don't get excited, everyone. This matter is of great importance and should be handled by the emperor. I believe that the emperor will clearly understand everything and handle it impartially! "
Hearing this, Wang De's eyes became even more murderous.
"Shen Chengshan, go to hell!" Wang De roared angrily, and while Shen Chengshan's back was turned to him, he suddenly thrust the dagger in his hand into Shen Chengshan's back.
"Ah!" Shen Chengshan was stabbed in the back, and he suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood.
"Vice General Shen!" Everyone looked up and saw that Wang De's dagger had pierced Shen Chengshan's back.
Shen Chengshan's lungs were punctured, and a large stream of blood came out of his chest. He froze in pain and could not move.
Looking at Wang De again, he was shaking with a ferocious look on his face.
"Wang De, how dare you sneak attack Vice General Shen!" Seeing this scene, Xuance's soldiers were so angry that their eyes were red and their faces were filled with anger.
Wang De took back his hand and said tremblingly: "I, I don't want to kill him. Who told him to tell the emperor? He deserves to die!"
"What's going on?" At this moment, Chu Xuanchen's voice came from not far away.
The Xuance soldiers looked up and saw Chu Xuanchen and Prince Rui walking out of the camp opposite.
Seeing Chu Xuanchen, they seemed to have seen a savior and said angrily: "My lord, Wang De took advantage of Deputy Shen's unpreparedness and attacked Deputy General Shen!"
"What?" Chu Xuanchen was startled and rushed over. When Prince Rui saw this, his face turned pale and he hurried over.
After Chu Xuanchen walked over, he quickly pushed aside the crowd and saw several Xuance soldiers supporting Shen Chengshan.
And Shen Chengshan was covered in blood, and it was difficult to even stand.
"Vice General Shen!" Chu Xuanchen hurriedly walked over, supported Deputy General Shen, and then said anxiously, "Quick, call the military doctor, hurry up!"
"Yes, Your Majesty." Someone immediately called the military doctor.
At this time, Chu Xuanchen had already looked at Wang De, with overwhelming anger in his eyes, "Wang De, was it you who hurt Deputy General Shen?"
Seeing Chu Xuanchen's face full of murderous intent, Wang De was frightened and took two steps back. He raised his bloody hand and trembled: "I didn't want to. Who told him to report me to the emperor? He wanted to kill me. I just killed him."
A Xuance soldier said: "That's not the case, Your Majesty. It's Wang De who pretended to convey the Holy Will, saying that the Emperor wanted you to return to Beijing in a prison car to insult you. Not only that, he also took advantage of the fact that there were so many of them to beat us up. When Lieutenant General Shen saw that he was disturbing the morale of the army, he said that he would report the matter to the Emperor and let the Emperor deal with him. Who knew that he was resentful and actually attacked Lieutenant General Shen!"
"Beast, you dare to kill Deputy General Shen, I will kill you!" After Chu Xuanchen finished speaking, he immediately pulled out the sword from his waist and was about to kill Wang De.
At this time, Shen Chengshan hurriedly used his last strength to grab him, "Your Majesty, you can't..."
Seeing Shen Chengshan speak, Chu Xuanchen looked at him with scarlet eyes and looked at him angrily, "Vice General Shen, they dared to sneak attack you, they deserve to die! I will kill them and avenge you!"
"No..." Shen Chengshan said, spitting out a mouthful of blood. Seeing this, Chu Xuanchen pressed his chest to stop the blood from flowing down.
After Shen Chengshan spit out blood, he looked at Chu Xuanchen and said sadly: "My lord, no, you can't do it now. Once you do it... you will never stop fighting!"
Chu Xuanchen said angrily: "But they dare to hurt you. You were injured because of me, and I must avenge you!"
With that said, he wanted to turn around and kill Wang De, but Shen Chengshan tried his best to hug him tightly and said, "Your Majesty, I really can't. I feel that my time is coming. Don't expand the conflict. If you kill someone now, I will be killed by then." His sacrifice was in vain...Don't be impulsive for me, you have to consider your children, your relatives, and these soldiers..."
"Vice General Shen!" Chu Xuanchen said, his eyes already filled with tears.
Until this time, Vice General Shen was still thinking about him.
He knew that Prince Rui was at fault in this matter.
If he takes action now, they will no longer have any reason to do so. The emperor can use this as an excuse to cause trouble for him at any time, and it will be difficult to end this matter.
Moreover, there are so many soldiers following him, and they also have relatives, parents and children. As the commander-in-chief of an army, he must take the overall situation into consideration and not drag down these soldiers.
At this time, Shen Chengshan spit out another mouthful of blood, and Chu Xuanchen shouted anxiously: "Where is the military doctor? Why haven't the military doctors come yet? Lieutenant General Shen, hold on, you must hold on, you will be fine."
"Your Majesty, forget it, it's useless." Shen Chengshan said, clasping Chu Xuanchen's arm with his right hand and saying painfully, "Your Majesty, I know that I am not going to die soon. I am sorry that I can no longer follow you! Before I die, can I ask you one thing?"
"Vice General Shen, if you need help with anything, just say it and I will definitely do it for you," Chu Xuanchen said eagerly.
Shen Chengshan closed his eyes and said sadly: "Your Majesty... The general's wife died young, and the general only has a seventeen-year-old daughter named Yulian. Now the general... may not be able to take care of her anymore, can he?" I can’t ask...please, the prince, take care of her for me..."
