Chapter 1591

Chu Shao Yang turned a deaf ear to the noise coming from below the stage. He slowly raised the imperial edict in his hand and opened it with a "shua" sound.

"This is the order. Anyone who disobeys will be beheaded!"

He circulated his inner energy, causing his voice to be clear and impassioned, and it carried a strand of murderous intent as it resounded throughout the entire drill grounds, allowing everyone to hear it clearly.

No one said anything, but many people had looks of disdain on their faces, especially those generals who had military merits.

A stinky brat who was still wet behind the ears, relying on his status as the West Chu King. He had only presented a map and obtained the emperor's favour, allowing him to command the three armies.

They were all blood-soaked generals with military merits, so why did they have to listen to this stinky brat's orders? He was just using the imperial edict as a command arrow!

Some people couldn't hold it in and began to berate him.

"What qualifications do you have to beat the drum! Do you know that once the drum is struck, it will shake the heavens and the earth? If it wasn't for the fact that something big had happened, then you would have committed a grave crime by beating the drum without permission! "

This person was the commander of the capital's guard army, named Wu Cheng Zhi. He was the emperor's favourite and had a high position.

He had an arrogant look on his face as he looked at Chu Shao Yang on the stage.

Chu Shao Yang's face sank as his eyes fell onto Wu Cheng Zhi's face. He softly said, "Who are you?"

"I am the commander of the capital's guard army, Wu Cheng Zhi!" Wu Cheng Zhi loudly said, his voice shaking the field.

"Very good, let's start the roll!"

Chu Shao Yang put away the imperial edict and opened the list. He loudly said, "Wu Cheng Zhi!"

All the generals were stunned, and Wu Chengzhi was even more stunned. His name wasn't the first on the list, and he was always called at the end of the list.

In this moment of shock, Chu Shao Yang had already called again, "Wu Cheng Zhi!"

Wu Cheng Zhi instinctively wanted to agree, but when he saw Chu Shao Yang's young face that had not been tainted by the flames of war at all, his chest felt suffocated and he swallowed the "here" that was about to come out of his mouth.

He was just a stinky brat that hadn't even grown his hair, what qualifications did he have to shout his name here? Was his name something he could shout?

In the entire capital, who would not respectfully call him master Wu when they saw him?

Chu Shao Yang had already called for the third time, "Where is Wu Cheng Zhi!"

Someone beside him couldn't help whispering, "Commander Wu, quickly answer. If you don't answer three times, you will be beheaded!"

Wu Cheng Zhi gave a snort and ignored him.

He had an arrogant look on his face as he looked at Chu Shao Yang. He was thinking, I won't agree, let's see what a brat like you can do to this commander! Father doesn't believe that you have the guts to cut off father's head!

"The Commander of the Jingdou Guards, Wu Chengzhi, didn't even give three warnings. He deserves to be executed. Men, execute him!"

Chu Shao Yang stood on the stage and shouted in a cold.

Everyone below the stage stood there without moving. They looked at each other in blank dismay and revealed a look of disbelief, as if Chu Shao Yang on the stage was telling a giant joke.

To commander?

Did they hear wrong?

Who didn't know that commander Wu was the emperor's most trusted person? He had once led the army to the Southern Yue Country, so the emperor made him the commander of the guard army and had him guard the imperial city. He was more favoured than anyone else.
