Empire

Chapter 16

""Master, Master, it's not good, it's not good."

When the depressed Master Xu Fu was talking to several trusted officers in his military tent, a soldier rushed into the tent without reporting.

"How dare you break into a military tent without permission? Get out of here!"

Seeing the soldier who broke into the military tent without permission, the leader Xu Fu raised his head and couldn't help but yelled at him.

The soldier was stunned and frightened by Xu Fu's scolding. After reacting, he turned around and was about to leave.

Seeing the leader Xu Fu suddenly get angry, several trusted officers were also confused. They looked at each other, not understanding what was going on.

"Stop!"

When the soldier was about to leave the tent, the leader Xu Fu realized his mistake and took a deep breath to stop the soldier.

The soldier hurried back as if he had been pardoned and saluted Xu Fu.

""Tell me, what are you so flustered about?" Xu Fu stared at the soldier and asked.���The speed was so fast that he was a little uncomfortable. After a few seconds, he remembered the purpose of his visit.

The soldier bowed and said,"Report to the leader, the young master was beaten."

"What did you say?"

After hearing this, Xu Fu raised his eyebrows and his face turned cold.

You know, he only has Xu Jiang, who is spoiled all the time. Now he is beaten. How can this be tolerated?

Xu Fu asked:"How is my son now?"

The soldier replied:"The young master has been carried back and is in the military tent."

After hearing this, Xu Fu stood up. It turned out that he was carried back.

"Who the hell is so bold as to hit my son Xu Fu?!"

"Report to the leader, it was a subordinate of the leader Chen, a general named Chen Ziang, who led the fight."

After hearing the words of this soldier, several officers in the military tent looked at each other in bewilderment. Why did Chen Ziang fight with Xu Jiang?

They also realized the seriousness of the situation. It involved two leaders. If this matter was not handled properly, it would cause a series of serious consequences.

""Master, why don't you go see the young master first?" an officer said.

Xu Fu was furious and led his men to Xu Jiang's tent.

When they arrived at Xu Jiang's tent, they heard a shrill wail from afar. Xu Fu's heart was broken when he heard that familiar voice. That was his only precious son.

Xu Fu rushed into the tent in two steps. Seeing Xu Jiang lying on the bed with a bruised face and dying, he was so angry that his face turned blue.

Although Xu Jiang was beaten, he was not that miserable. The reason why he pretended to be dying was nothing more than to win his father's sympathy and support.

"Jiang'er, Jiang'er, how are you? Don't scare your father."

Xu Fu, a great leader, was so distressed when he saw Xu Jiang like this.

"Dad, that guy surnamed Chen bullied me, you have to stand up for me."

Xu Jiang is also an actor, and when he saw his father coming, he hurriedly started to complain with tears and snot.

"That guy surnamed Chen not only beat me, but also scolded you......."

Xu Jiang hated Chen Ziang so much that he exaggerated the story, which made Xu Fu furious.

""Chen Zi'ang, you are bullying me too much. If I don't kill you today, I, Xu Fu, will not be a human being!"

With Xu Jiang's exaggerated accusation, Chen Zi'ang became a bully. Xu Fu's eyes burst with murderous intent.

"Someone come here!"

"The end is here!"

"Gather your men and follow me to kill little Chen Zi'ang!"

""Yes!"

With Xu Fu's order, the rebels he belonged to quickly assembled and then headed straight for Chen Ru's old camp.

Xu Fu's high-profile action immediately attracted the attention of the other rebel camps.

""Master, Chief Xu is coming with a large number of troops, threatening to kill Chen Ziang."

Before Xu Fu and his men arrived, the news had already been quickly passed to Chen Ru.

"This Xu Fu is really too overbearing. Doesn't he know what kind of person his son is?" Chen Ru couldn't help but sneer when he heard that Xu Fu was bringing people over.

""Master, what should we do?" an officer asked

"My Lord, it is not worth it to quarrel with Xu Fu because of Chen Zi'ang. It is better to hand Chen Zi'ang over to avoid a rift within our rebel army."

"Not only did they not participate in the night raid, but Xu Jiang also came to rob the spoils and injured our people. I think Brother Chen was right to teach them a lesson, and we are right."

Leader, we can't hand over Brother Chen, otherwise it will chill the hearts of the brothers."

The officers under Chen Ru were also divided into two factions. One faction firmly supported Chen Ru, and the other faction thought it would be better to hand over Chen Ziang in exchange for everyone living in peace.

"Right or wrong, people will judge for themselves. I will not wrongly accuse a good person, nor will I let a bad person go. I believe that this matter can be investigated thoroughly."

Chen Ru has always been disgusted with the arrogant attitude of Xu Fu and his son. Chen Ziang taught Xu Jiang a lesson, and Chen Ru was very happy.

Especially Chen Ziang did not take the spoils for himself, but sent most of them to him. In addition, Chen Ziang was from his old camp. He had to protect Chen Ziang for both public and private reasons.

Soon, Chen Ru and a group of officers strode out of the military tent and greeted them.

"Brother Xu, why are you bringing so many people here?"

Chen Ru saw the murderous Xu Fu leading his men over, and asked with a smile from a distance.

"Brother Chen, I am here for no other reason than to seek justice for my son. Chen Ziang from your old camp almost beat my son Xu Jiang to death. This is intolerable. I must kill Chen Ziang today!" Xu Fu said angrily.

"Yes, hand over Chen Zi'ang!"

"I will not stop until I kill Chen Ziang!"

As soon as Xu Fu finished speaking, several people who were beaten started shouting.

"Brother Xu, don't listen to one-sided words."

Chen Ru glanced at the shouting soldiers and said with a smile

"What do you mean, do you want to protect Chen Ziang and go against me?!"Xu Fu stared at Chen Ru and questioned him unkindly.

Chen Ru waved his hands and said with a smile:"Brother Xu, you misunderstood. I have never wronged a good person, nor will I let a bad person go. It's just that I heard some other opinions about this matter."

"What's that?!"

"Chen Ziang and his men fought all night and seized some spoils. Xu Jiang led his men to rob them, and the two sides clashed......."

The leader Chen Ru calmly explained the cause and effect of the incident, which made Xu Fu frown. This was very different from what he had heard.

"Sir, don't listen to his nonsense........"Several guilty soldiers hurriedly spoke

"Whether it is nonsense or not, we can just call both parties and confront them on the spot. We will know it with one question. Brother Xu, what do you think?" Chen Ru cast his eyes on Xu Fu.

Xu Fu came here aggressively and wanted to seek justice, but now he was unsure of himself after hearing a few words from Chen Ru. After all, he knew his son well and was used to being domineering.

"Well, let them confront each other face to face!"

Xu Fu knew that if he went back in disgrace, it would be a joke, so he still agreed.
