The Great Qin Dynasty: The egg of the Black Bird was revered as a national guardian beast.

These words immediately silenced the crowd.

These three words immediately reminded them of the high-pitched, fox-like voice they heard last night.

At that time, it seemed to have shouted six words.

The Great Chu will rise, and Chen Sheng will be king!

The people around them exchanged glances, filled with unease.

People nowadays are especially superstitious, let alone the fact that such bizarre things have happened around them one after another.

But there was nothing they could do; the county constable sent someone to urge them on again.

Despite feeling anxious and uneasy, he quickly cooked and ate the fish, preparing to continue his journey.

Just as everyone finished packing and was preparing to set off.

At this moment, Chen Sheng looked at Wu Guang and nodded.

Wu Guang understood, stepped forward, looked at the county constable urging them to set off, and deliberately provoked him.

"Why is the county magistrate urging us on?"

"What did you say?" The county constable looked at Wu Guang, his eyes fixed on him with a sense of oppression.

But even so,

Wu Guang also raised his head and spoke frankly.

"The heavy rains of the past few days have caused us all to miss our deadline. Since we are already late, why should the county magistrate urge us on?"

"Ha." Looking at him, the county constable sneered, "Do you know who you're talking to?"

Wu Guang looked at him without saying a word.

The county constable raised his hand and pointed at him: "Guards, this man has committed insubordination; give him twenty lashes."

At a command.

Several county soldiers surrounding the county constable stepped forward, bound Wu Guang with ropes, and then whipped him.

With each scream of Wu Guang's agony.

The surrounding soldiers watched this scene with a hint of anger in their eyes, but they kept it hidden.

After all, the position of county magistrate was right there.

The past power and prestige are not so easily shaken.

"Gentlemen." But at that moment, Chen Sheng stepped out from the crowd, turned around and looked at the soldiers around him.

"We have all missed our deadline due to the rain. Missing the deadline is punishable by death. Even if we are fortunate enough to escape execution, six or seven out of ten of us will still die on the frontier."

"To die now is death, to launch a grand plan is also death."

"So be it!" Chen Sheng raised his arm and shouted, "A brave man should either live or die to make a name for himself! Let us rebel against them!"

The soldiers on all four sides exchanged glances, unable to make a decision.

Finally, someone stepped forward, glanced at Chen Sheng, and then at Wu Guang, who was being whipped.

He responded, "I am willing to follow your advice."

Looking at the people standing around him, Chen Sheng smiled.

He then raised his arm and shouted, "Are kings and nobles born with a special destiny?"

How magnificent are these words!

The crowd raised their arms and shouted, and for a moment, they were swept up in the intense atmosphere, their spirits soaring.

Watching this scene,

The county constable raised his finger, pointed here, and his lips trembled uncontrollably: "They've rebelled! They've all rebelled!"

As he spoke, he shouted, "Someone come here! Everyone come here! Give him..."

But before he could finish speaking, Chen Sheng stepped forward and stabbed him to death with a bamboo spear!

With the county magistrate dead, everyone went even crazier!

The garrison soldier rushed forward, his face contorted with rage, as if driven by old grudges, and killed the county soldier.

Wait until all the county soldiers are killed!

Chen Sheng untied Wu Guang and then ordered the county magistrate to take out the grain he was carrying and distribute it to everyone.

Then he bared his right arm and cut wood to make weapons.

They raised the name of Xiang Yan, made an oath at an altar, and sacrificed the head of the county magistrate. Chen Sheng declared himself general and Wu Guang the commander.

His first order

On their return journey, they occupied and conquered Dazexiang.

..............

Looking at the bamboo slips in his hand,

A hint of sadness lingered in Xuan Ye's eyes.

The bamboo slips contained the story of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's rebellion; he must have expected it, or he must not have.

The thought was that Chen Sheng and his followers were clearly not ordinary commoners, and given the current situation, it was only natural for them to rebel.

Unexpectedly, it happened so quickly.

"When His Majesty was still alive, they were all well-behaved, but now, they have all jumped out."

"Is this courting death? Do you really think my sword is useless?"

He gently placed the bamboo slip in front of him.

The bamboo slip fell softly onto the table. He raised his eyes and asked with a cold smile.

He should have immediately dispatched troops to quell the rebellion.

However, just as he received this bamboo slip and summoned Li Si and Zhao Gao to consult him,

Taking advantage of this gap,

Fusu sent a message out through a palace maid.

Although the palace maid was arrested in time, it was too late; she had already spread the news.

"An imperial edict hidden in a belt?"

Sitting at a table, Xuan Ye smiled.

Unexpectedly, their kind and benevolent crown prince actually came up with this thing.

Presumably at this moment,

This imperial edict, hidden in a belt, has already fallen into someone's hands.

Who is it? All the Confucian scholars have been executed. Who can Fusu rely on now? The Meng family? Or the Wang family?

No, no, Wang Jian is a smart man.

Presumably, they will not get involved. In that case, only the Wang family remains.

Meng Tianyao?

Xuan Ye closed his eyes and let out a sigh of relief.

Just then, a person entered the palace, came before Xuan Ye, and bowed deeply.

"My lord."

Xuan Ye raised his eyes and looked at the person who had just arrived.

Ah, it's Han Xin.

He closed his eyes again, tapped his fingers on the table, and sighed. These are turbulent times.

"What is it?"

"Reporting to my lord," Han Xin raised his hand, looking at Xuan Ye sitting behind the table, "there is unusual activity outside the palace."

"Hmm?" Xuan Ye raised his eyes and looked at him.

After thinking for a moment, Han Xin organized his words: "The Imperial Guards stationed in Xianyang were mobilized without imperial order."

He smiled, as if he knew something.

Xuan Ye led Han Xin out of the palace. From there, they could see most of Xianyang City.

He raised an eyebrow. Has things come to this?

He controlled Fusu, preventing him from meeting with the court officials, precisely because he did not want them to turn against him at this time.

But now, it has come to this.

Fine, let's leave it at that. Let's solve this once and for all and take this opportunity to nip all the hidden dangers in the bud!

"My lord, shall I lead the troops into battle?"

At this moment, Han Xin, who had been standing behind Xuan Ye, raised his head and looked at Xuan Ye, asking a question.

"No need." He shook his head and narrowed his eyes.

"I'll take care of it myself!"

In any case, it's time for all of this to come to an end.

.............

"Commander of the Guards, the soldiers have assembled."

A man was kneeling on the ground, and in front of him was a man wearing armor.

His armor bore various signs of wear and tear.

Upon hearing the man's report, he raised his eyes, holding a sash in his hand covered with writing.

He waved his hand and said, "I understand, you can go now."

The man nodded and quickly stepped back.

The man sat in his seat, looking at the sash in his hand, and slowly tightened his grip.

Finally, I let out a breath.

He took the sash in his hand and went outside.

Outside, a black-armored army was gathering in the distance, and not only that, some court officials were also standing outside.

He raised his hand.

He raised the imperial edict in his hand.

"Today, I have been summoned by imperial decree to enter the palace and punish the traitors!"
