Chapter 941 Killing two birds with one stone
Pei Sheng was ups and downs and was secretly anxious.
Chu Yi did not answer him immediately, but turned his eyes to look at Wei Shihui beside him.
Wei Shihui nodded and said, "Prince Pei, it's not that the emperor deliberately makes things difficult for you, but now, the emperor can only send you up to five hundred elite soldiers."
Pei Sheng looked at Wei Shihui with some confusion, and then looked at Chu Yi, his eyes full of doubts. Could it be that Chu Jing now has only such a little force? Pei Sheng didn't believe it.
He was immediately a little annoyed by Wei Shihui. It must be that this man said something in front of the emperor that the emperor only sent five hundred to him.
Chu Yi looked at Pei Sheng and suddenly spoke, saying, "Pei Aiqing, what I promised you is, but the King of Loyalty and righteousness who is inferior to one person and above ten thousand people. Such a fame is not enough, but loyalty is not enough, and you also have wisdom."
Pei Sheng complained secretly, but when the emperor said this, what could he say, "I will do my best to die before I die."
Chu Yi's face was solemn, and he said, "Pei Aiqing, I don't need you to die. Dead people are useless. I want you to live. Only when you eliminate the traitors alive can you be qualified to be the title of King Zhongyi."
Pei Sheng was a little excited by Chu Yi's words, but when he thought of only 500 elite soldiers, the hot blood that had just boiled down cooled down again.
Pei Sheng received the order to thank him and was about to sue his retreat, but Wei Shihui suddenly called him and said, "People, the official has a suggestion. I wonder if you want to listen."
Pei Sheng thought that it was Wei Shihui who instigated him in front of the emperor that the emperor only gave him five hundred elite soldiers. He was originally very angry, but due to the emperor's face, he did not dare to attack.
He only said in a deep voice: "Shimaster Wei, please tell me."
Wei Shihui said: "There are many ministers who just agreed to the attack. It seems that I, Nanchu, still have many loyal and brave men. Now, the emperor can only send you five hundred elite soldiers. So why don't Pei Xiangye come out of these people with other personnel?"
Wei Shihui had just said one sentence and didn't need to explain it. Pei Sheng immediately understood, and his heart was trembling. His eyes changed when he looked at Wei Shihui, and he thought to himself: No wonder Wei Shihui was so happy to win Chu Yi. He was indeed a bit strategic in his heart.
You should know that in today's era, those who are a little more powerful will have their families holding slaves in their houses. In the palace soldiers, not to mention the emperor's feet in the capital of Chu, no one in their family has hundreds or thousands of government soldiers. If this part of the troops can be drawn out, the number will be greater.
But will those powerful people willingly call the soldiers from their houses to send them out?
Just as Pei Sheng was thinking about it, Chu Yi said, "Pei Aiqing, the country is in danger. I believe that as long as I am from Nan Chu, I will think of doing some contribution to Nan Chu. Those who are unwilling to contribute are naturally not those who are truly loyal to my Nan Chu court."
When Pei Sheng heard this, he immediately understood that Chu Yi agreed with the idea that Wei Shihui said. Moreover, Chu Yi also hoped to take this opportunity to test out which of the civil and military officials in the court were truly loyal and which were not loyal.
Pei Sheng kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty, I will definitely live up to my expectations and quell the rebellion for the emperor."
Looking at Pei Sheng's back, Chu Yi frowned slightly, turned his gaze, looked at Wei Shihui beside him, and said, "Wai Aiqing, what do you think?"
Wei Shihui said: "The emperor is wise and uses the soldiers of all his ministers to wipe out the rebel party. This can not only quell the rebellion, but also preserve its strength and kill two birds with one stone."
