The Warriors of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 256
After listening to Chen Zhong's report, Dongfang Sheng pondered and said, "You send people to sneak into Yizhou County, pay attention to the changes in the county, and I will make arrangements if there is any situation."

A politician who can't hide his thoughts is not a good politician, but Yong Kai is not a brilliant politician in the first place, he is just a local emperor, a man who is used to being king and hegemony in Yizhou County. Just a frog in a well.

So Dongfang Sheng is not very concerned about him.

Because of Huang Quan's affairs, Dongfang Sheng began to think about Liu Zhang's old department, and he focused on those middle and low-level officials. It is most suitable for Chen Shen, who has been under Liu Zhang for the longest time, to handle these matters.

When Chen Shen was summoned, he immediately put down what he was doing and rushed over. After hearing Dongfang Sheng's request, he pondered for a while and said, "Zhang Ren, Liu Gui, Leng Bao, and Deng Xian are all generals under Liu Zhang's command. Jun Li Yan is a talented person, but he is very self-confident and somewhat conceited."

Hearing the series of names uttered by Chen Shen, Dongfang Sheng suddenly felt that Liu Zhang's subordinates were not without talent, but Liu Zhang didn't notice it.

Dongfang Sheng didn't know that Li Yan, the guard of the army, was one of the Tuogu ministers in the later Shu Han. Many people thought that Zhuge Liang was the only Tuogu minister, but in fact there was another Tuogu minister, and that person was Li Yan. He was defeated in the struggle with Zhuge Liang, so he was demoted as a commoner.

"Okay, you entrust the work in your hand to someone you can trust, and then you start to select talents from Liu Zhang's old department and work with Zheng Du to persuade them to work for me."

Dongfang Sheng remembered that Zheng Du was also in charge of persuading the surrender, so he did not let Chen Shen do it alone. Of course, it would be better if two people were involved in the persuasion work, one with a red face and one with a bad face, the probability of success would be higher.

"Here!" Chen Shen took the order to leave.

Dongfang Sheng rubbed his slightly sore temples, sighing inwardly: This is really tiring.

This was the case when Dongfang Sheng first took over. Once the situation stabilizes, it will be much better, because after the situation stabilizes, everyone will perform their duties, and Dongfang Sheng will be able to become the real Yizhou Mu who makes major decisions. Now he is just Still doing the prelude.

Dongfang Sheng is not Liu Zhang. He will not tolerate the situation that although all parts of Yizhou belong to Yizhou but actually do not obey the orders of his Yizhou pastor, of course he will not allow people like Zhang Lu, but for the time being, he will No energy to deal with Zhang Lu.

"My lord, Wang Lei, who is in charge of Yizhou, is asking to see you." A soldier from the Flying Eagle Battalion came over with an official wearing a Qufu Zen robe.

As soon as Wang Lei came in, he prostrated himself in the tunnel and said, "I have something important to tell my lord."

After Wang Lei finished speaking, he glanced at the soldier from Feiying Battalion who brought him in, and the soldier retreated knowingly.

"What do you want to tell me?" Dongfang Sheng put down the bamboo slip in his hand and asked.

Wang Lei lowered his head, but there was a look of madness in his eyes. He was a loyal member of Liu Zhang. In history, he hanged himself upside down on the city gate in order to persuade Liu Zhang not to let Liu Bei enter Yizhou, but Liu Zhang did not listen. His, Wang Lei directly cut the rope and fell to his death. This is an authentic remonstrance. It can be said that he is a very stubborn person.

"I have a list here, it's deliberate..." Wang Lei stood up and took out a silk cloth from his sleeve, which seemed to be written with blood on it. He walked stiffly in front of Dongfang Sheng and took out the silk cloth Slowly hand it to Dongfang Sheng.

The old man's hands are shaking a little bit?When Dongfang Sheng saw that Wang Lei's hands were trembling and he was in doubt, Wang Lei suddenly pulled out a dagger from the silk cloth and stabbed Dongfang Sheng's heart fiercely.

"The thief will die!" Wang Lei's face became distorted due to excessive force.

Without even thinking about it, Dongfang Sheng overturned the case in front of him, and Wang Lei's dagger was directly inserted into the case.

Do!
The dagger stuck deeply into the wooden table, Wang Lei wanted to pull out the dagger, but the dagger was inserted too deep, and he couldn't pull it out for a while.

Although Wang Lei had the courage to assassinate Dongfang Sheng, he lacked the strength.

How could Dongfang Sheng give him another chance to make a move? He jumped up from his position and kicked Wang Lei directly in the heart with a heartwarming kick.

Wow!
Wang Lei was kicked to the ground, and then spit out a mouthful of blood.

At this time, the soldiers from the Feiying Battalion outside also rushed over when they heard the sound, and quickly held down Wang Lei.

"You ungrateful fellow! Have you forgotten how miserable you were? Have you forgotten who took you in? I wish I could kill you with my own hands!"

Seeing that the general situation was over, Wang Lei cursed.

This is the case for many people after the assassination failed. Of course, there are two results, one is to be killed in public, and the other is to be pardoned.

Dongfang Sheng glanced at Wang Lei and didn't speak, he didn't have the intention of killing him, let alone the Yiqi tribe.

"Take him down, lock him up first." Dongfang Sheng waved his hand.

"Here!"

Two soldiers from the Flying Eagle Battalion directly twisted Wang Lei out.

Dongfang Sheng tidied up, rearranged the table, pulled out the dagger stuck on it, and looked it over carefully. There was no poison on the dagger, obviously Wang Lei was not a qualified assassin.

A qualified assassin would not change his expression even when facing his target. Wang Lei himself was not an assassin, so he was naturally a little nervous when he saw Dongfang Sheng. He was already old, and his hands would naturally shake when he was nervous.

Of course, even if he doesn't reveal this flaw, it would be difficult to assassinate Dongfang Sheng at his speed. Dongfang Sheng's physical reaction is beyond the reach of ordinary people. There is an instinctive feeling.

When Chen Zhong heard that Dongfang Sheng was assassinated and rushed over, he was relieved when he saw Dongfang Sheng sitting there safe and sound, looking at the bamboo slips.

"My lord, do you want me to look at Wang Lei's three clans?" Chen Chong's face showed a smug look.

Dongfang Sheng pondered and said, "No, you need to find evidence to prove Wang Lei's guilt. It cannot be an assassination, but it can be corruption."

"Here!"

Chen Zhong sighed secretly: the lord is still too kind.

In many modern countries, political opponents fight each other, and the loser is often imprisoned for life style and corruption issues, but often they cannot die, but their personal freedom is restricted. Dongfang Sheng does not want to cause trouble at this time, so he He had no intention of killing Wang Lei.

Putting Wang Lei in prison as a corrupt criminal for a lifetime is more useful than killing him. Killing him will fulfill his reputation as a loyal minister, while Dongfang Sheng will be given a notorious reputation for killing innocent people. Such a sum Buying and selling Dongfang Sheng will naturally not do it.

After Chen Zhong left, Jia Xu, who had been busy in the yamen, rushed in and said, "Pang Xibing has returned from defeat!"
