Zhuge Liang's Journey to Dominate the World: Starting from Another World
Chapter 57 Extermination
An Lushan regarded Kongming as a formidable enemy, and Kongming felt the same way. Given the chance, they would both try to kill each other.
The reason they actively got involved this time was to eliminate An Lushan's underground informants.
"Zhuge Kongming, you are really bold. Do you think you can fool me just because you can fool Father?"
Just then, a young man walked in slowly; it was none other than the Eighth Prince, Temugeda.
"Eighth Prince, so it's you?" Kongming said calmly upon seeing the person who entered.
He had initially viewed these princes with the same eye, but the Eighth Prince was the most likely suspect in the poisoning, and Kongming had never intended to interfere in these royal affairs.
Later, many princes recommended him to Miaoyin Manor, which may have been just a coincidence, and Su Yao was an unexpected surprise.
If it weren't for Su Yao's affair, he was already planning to return to Yuliang, regardless of the internal strife within the Great Yuan Kingdom, he would remain unmoved...
"Zhuge Kongming, impersonating the imperial envoy, is a crime deserving of death! Seize him immediately!" the Eighth Prince shouted.
Immediately, the cultivators all moved closer to Kongming with serious expressions, while Zhu Bajie trembled and hid behind Kongming.
"You blockhead, are you in such a hurry to throw your head away?" Kongming continued to wave his feather fan calmly.
"You're about to die, yet you still dare to boast! Attack!" the Eighth Prince ordered.
"Let's see who dares to take action!"
Just then, a hunched old eunuch slowly walked over, and immediately a large group of armored soldiers and cultivators surrounded the elegant room, including the Yuan Emperor's personal cultivator, a terrifying existence ranked sixteenth on the Golden Core Peak Ranking.
"Eunuch Jiang!"
The Eighth Prince was shocked. Logically speaking, how could such a secluded place have alerted this person? Could it be that his father had planned this all along?
"Take it!"
Screams erupted one after another.
Kongming knew that after today, An Lushan's underground organization would likely be completely eradicated, and his conspiracy with the Yuan Emperor would end there...
Taking advantage of the chaos, he knocked Su Yao unconscious with a palm strike, picked her up, and broke through the window with Zhu Ganglie, just as he was about to summon his flying spirit beast.
"Master Ma, please wait. His Majesty has decreed that we shall go to the palace together to meet the Emperor after this matter is settled." The hunched old eunuch appeared before Kongming at some point.
Kongming was greatly shocked. He had never sensed any magical power fluctuations from this old eunuch before, but at this moment, something about him sent chills down his spine. Clearly, this person's cultivation was extremely high, and he was no ordinary person.
Kongming's expression turned solemn as he was surprised to find such a master hidden among Emperor Yuan's men. He knew that he would be unable to keep his identity a secret after tonight. Although he had saved the Crown Prince's life, Emperor Yuan's ruthless nature meant he might not let the matter rest.
“Eunuch Jiang, there’s no need to go to the palace. I have important family matters to attend to, so I’ll take my leave now. Also, I really like this young lady, so I’ll take her with me.”
Kongming dared not enter the palace again, so he decided to keep up the act. Although his tone was respectful, his attitude left no room for doubt.
Eunuch Jiang smiled slightly, his wrinkles piling up like withered vines in autumn. He slowly shook his head and said, "Master Ma, the imperial decree is hard to disobey. Besides, if you don't go to the palace today, I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain clearly."
Kongming stared at the old eunuch in front of him, his teeth itching with hatred. However, this man had kindly reminded him when he first entered the palace, so he couldn't be a particularly wicked person.
"If I insist on leaving, what will Eunuch Jiang do?"
Eunuch Jiang nodded slightly, the wrinkles on his face seemed to deepen, but his cloudy eyes suddenly became bright and deep, as if they could see into people's hearts.
“Master Ma, if you insist on leaving, this old servant will naturally not dare to stop you. I am only responsible for conveying the decree. But I must tell you that the road ahead may not be easy!”
Kongming frowned. Judging from the old eunuch's tone, he seemed to be planning to let him go. "Screw you, what are we waiting for?" Kongming waved his hand, and a majestic flying spirit beast leaped out, carrying the three of them into the air.
He turned to look at Eunuch Jiang, and seeing that he had no intention of pursuing, he bowed slightly to him and flew into the sky without looking back...
Although it was late at night, the Yuan Dynasty palace was still brightly lit.
"Your Majesty, the Eighth Prince has confessed. Please advise on how to deal with him!" a guard reported cautiously.
"They colluded with outsiders and plotted to harm the Crown Prince; their crimes are unforgivable! Kill them all! Bury them all alive!"
Tie Muzhen raised his eyelids, his voice cold and ruthless, sending chills down one's spine.
Then, he turned to the hunched eunuch beside him with a respectful expression and asked, "Uncle Jiang, why didn't Master Ma enter the palace with us?"
"The old servant has delivered the decree; as for disobeying the decree, that is his business!" Eunuch Jiang raised his wrinkled face slightly and said in a deep voice.
"Has his identity been verified?" Tie Muzhen continued to inquire.
"Impersonating the Holy Envoy is true, but everything else is being verified," Eunuch Jiang replied calmly.
Tie Muzhen glanced at Eunuch Jiang. This old eunuch had served four generations of emperors since his great-grandfather. No one knew his real age. According to him, he had taken a pill by chance when he was young, which must be related to this.
However, when he ascended the throne, the late emperor had warned him to treat this eunuch well. But in his opinion, this man was good for nothing except for his age. However, out of respect for ancestral teachings, he was still relatively polite to him.
"Do you think my valuables are so easy to take? Issue the order to hunt down this man with all our might! It would be best if he were alive!" Emperor Yuan said, glancing at Eunuch Jiang.
“Your Majesty, this man did save the Crown Prince’s life after all, why not…” Eunuch Jiang hesitated, knowing Tie Muzhen’s character well—ruthless and unforgiving, unless you had a bigger fist than him.
"Hmph, this is a crime of deceiving the emperor! How can I tolerate such insolence? Eunuch Jiang, immediately issue an edict ordering the garrisoned cultivators and imperial guards to cooperate fully and bring this man back to me at all costs!" The Emperor's voice was filled with unquestionable authority...
The Great Yuan Kingdom was originally the overlord of the grasslands. Outside the imperial city lay endless pastures, which were also an important source of warhorses for these countries. Relying on the buying and selling of warhorses, Tie Muzhen could be said to be the emperor among these countries who had the least to worry about money.
The flying spirit beast soared through the blue sky, heading towards Zhongliang County.
At this moment, Su Yao slowly opened her eyes, and immediately a pig's head came into view.
"Fairy, you're awake. I, Old Pig, greet you."
Pigsy looked ingratiating. He hadn't expected Kongming to pull this stunt, even kidnapping a fairy before leaving. He secretly admired Kongming's audacity.
"roll!"
Su Yao glanced at Zhu Ganglie and scolded him playfully.
"Why are you so angry? I, Old Pig, am just trying to save you from suffering..."
Before Zhu Ganglie could finish speaking, Su Yao kicked him away.
"Why did you take me away?" Su Yao looked coldly at Kong Ming.
"Even a day as husband and wife is worth a hundred days of kindness. From now on, you'll be with me!"
"Uh... Big brother, you can't disrespect the fairy, she's not even familiar with you..."
"Shut up, you idiot." Kongming glared at Zhu Bajie.
