Chapter 106 Chess Pieces  

  After Guo Qiang heard that the exiled team was attacked by bandits, he was immediately overjoyed. He succeeded.

  So, when he heard that Master Shangshu had found him, he was very excited and thought to himself, this time he can call him uncle!

  When he arrived at Shangshu Mansion, he happily came to the hall. As soon as he entered, he saw Lord Shangshu drinking tea from a cup. He quickly suppressed his excitement, but walked in quickly.

  "Uncle...Master Shangshu!"

  Guo Qiang saluted respectfully, but he raised his head and stared at Master Shangshu, with an expression on his face that said, praise me now, praise me now.

  Lord Shangshu heard the commotion and put down his tea cup. He saw Guo Qiang's expression asking for credit and immediately raised his hand and slapped him.

  Snapped!

  Guo Qiang was stunned, covering his face, looking like he couldn't believe it.

  "Uncle... why are you beating me?"

  "Hitting you?" Master Shangshu slammed the table and said angrily, "I not only want to beat you, but also want to kill you!"

  Hearing Master Shangshu's angry look, Guo Qiang hurriedly Take a few steps back and distance yourself from him.

  "Uncle...Master Shangshu, why on earth?"

  "You still ask me why? You are a guy who has failed to achieve anything but failed!"

  "Why have I failed to succeed and failed to succeed?" Guo Qiang was unconvinced, "What the hell?" Chen family, I have already arranged for bandits to take action. I have received news that the exiled team has been attacked by bandits. Now the Chen family has already..."

  "So..." Master Shangshu interrupted him, squinting. Eyes said, "So, you want to take credit, right?"

  Guo Qiang didn't dare to speak anymore for fear of being beaten again, but the expression on his face betrayed him, and this was indeed his idea.

  "Take a look for yourself and see what stupid thing you have done!"

  Master Shangshu took out a fold from his sleeve and threw it towards Guo Qiang. Guo Qiang quickly caught the fold and opened it subconsciously.

  He was immediately dumbfounded.

  What was written in it was exactly what happened when the exile was attacked by bandits, but he knew it was wrong, and it was different from what he imagined.

  He didn't know the whole story, he only knew that the exile team was attacked by bandits, and thought that things developed as he expected.

  After reading this excerpt, he knew what was going on.

  What is written above is what General Ping Wei reported to the court. The general idea is that a group of brutal bandits attacked the exiled team, and many people, including the captain of the government office, died.

  When he first saw this, he still had a little expectation in his heart. If the captain of the government office was dead, then the Chen family would definitely not be able to escape.

  After all, if he hadn't arranged it, how could the bandits attack the exiled team, and the primary target of this group of bandits was the Chen family.

  However, when he saw the back, his face became very ugly.

  It turned out that the Chen family had already discovered the bandits' attack, notified the captain of the government office in advance to take precautions, and also summoned the nearby General Pingwei.

  Although the government officials did not stop them, General Pingwei and others arrived in time to stop the bandits from going on a killing spree.

  It also prevented the court from losing face. Therefore, the Chen family not only did not die, but also made great achievements.

  "This..."

  Guo Qiang opened his mouth and was speechless. No wonder his uncle was so angry, scolding him for failing to accomplish anything but failing.

  This is...no, it's the fault of these bandits.

  They were the ones who failed in success and failed in failure. Not only did they not kill the Chen family, but they killed them and gave them credit.

  "Then...Then the Chen family has made meritorious service, isn't it..." Guo Qiangtian said worriedly. Whether the merit is big or small depends on how the court decides.

  If the imperial court transfers the Chen family back, wouldn't it be...

  "Humph!"

  Master Shangshu snorted coldly, "Don't worry, the Chen family will not come back, and it is impossible to come back."

  "This is not important anymore. The main thing is, do you have it?" Leave a clue! "

  " A clue?"

  Guo Qiang was puzzled and heard the Lord Shangshu say quietly, "According to the bandits captured by General Pingwei, someone asked them to attack the Chen family and the exiled team..."

  Guo Qiang heard As he spoke, a chill suddenly surged up from the soles of his feet. He knew what Master Shangshu meant.

  If there is any clue, then he will probably be abandoned. Even if he is Lord Shangshu's nephew, he is just a chess piece that can be discarded at any time.

  "No, absolutely not!"

  He quickly shook his head and retorted, "My people will never reveal our identities, and I silenced him the day after he came back."

  "Let me believe you again." Lord Shangshu returned to his chair, took a sip of tea, "Don't deal with this matter anymore!"

  "Uncle..."

  Guo Qiang suddenly became anxious. He thought of what his uncle had said before. If it can't be done this time, There was no need to call him uncle. When he thought of this, he suddenly panicked.

  Could it be that his uncle really abandoned him?

  "Master Shangshu, give me another chance. This time I will definitely not..."

  "That's enough." Master Shangshu slammed the cup on the table with a bang, "How many times have I given you a chance?"

  "Do you still want to give credit to the Chen family and keep giving them credit until His Majesty changes his mind and revives him?"

  "I..."

  Guo Qiang was speechless. It was his first time to search his home, but nothing was confiscated. Instead, it gave the Chen family a good reputation and made the people feel that Chen Yuan was wrongly accused of corruption.

  After that, he sent Zhao Guang to kill the Chen family, but there was no movement, and he didn't know if Zhao Guang was dead...

  The third time, he asked someone to contact the bandits, and tried to kill the Chen family with the help of the bandits, but instead he let The Chen family has made meritorious deeds...

  Speaking of which, it's exactly what my uncle said...

  Uh...

  No, how could he give credit to the Chen family? His subordinates didn't do their best, so he just took the blame.

  "I will arrange it myself this time!" Lord Shangshu stood up and stopped talking nonsense with him. "Get out of here."

  "Lord Shangshu..."

  Guo Qiang was a little anxious.

  "Shut up!" Master Shangshu's face suddenly darkened. "This failure, I will spare your life because you are my nephew. If you want to die, I can help you."

  Guo Qiang suddenly did not dare . He stopped talking because he really felt the killing intent.

  "But..."

  Lord Shangshu changed the topic, "There are still people secretly investigating the disaster relief grain embezzlement case, and they said they found a few witnesses..."

  Guo Qiang didn't react slowly. He immediately understood what Lord Shangshu meant and took it decisively, "I'll deal with those witnesses."

  "Okay, I have to deal with the Chen family and I can't spare my hands for the time being, so I'll give it to you once. " Chance, if someone gets caught..."

  "Don't worry, Lord Shangshu!" Guo Qiang said firmly, "If I am discovered, I will take all the responsibility and commit suicide."

  Lord Shangshu nodded and said nothing more. What, obviously very satisfied with his answer.

  Although he is his nephew, he is still a chess piece, how could he not squeeze out all its value.
