* Wellington finds it amusing when it turns out that Sharpe has been fired by the Prince of Orange, remarking that he'd basically warning the Prince that Sharpe was effectively uncontrollable (the only exception to this rule is Wellington himself).

!!Sharpe's Assassin
* Following immediately on from the last book, Sharpe ends up meeting with Wellington and Rebecque, the Prince of Orange's Chief of Staff/general minder. It's made clear in the conversation, which features Sharpe's [[BlatantLies confident barefaced lying]], that everyone ''knows'' that [[UnfriendlyFire Sharpe shot the Prince]], and absolutely no one can prove it. Even better? Wellington finds it ''[[ActuallyPrettyFunny hilarious]]'' and basically tells Sharpe that [[DoWrongRight it was a very well placed shot]] because it got the Prince off the field without serious injury and thereby prevented further screw-ups. He might have been a bit less amused had the Prince actually been killed, but even so.
