Chapter 289 - Duoduo, this is The Last Time (1/2)
Seeing that State Teacher was finally looked to his direction, the Old Monarch endured his anger and said, “According to the spies, Yao’er’s death is strange. I suspect that it was Qi Hengqing, that stinky boy, that pulled down the bridge after crossing the river. Now that he’s the Emperor and his foundation is gradually stable, he couldn’t wait to uproot people who are unpleasant to his eyes, he’s afraid that Yao’er would reveal to me the secrets of Donglin Kingdom, this b@stard!”
Gong Moran nodded slightly, “Qi Hengqing’s move is obviously to provoke Nanyun Kingdom. If Nanyun Kingdom give in even with this matter, it will become even more effective in the future, that’s why, this minister also proposes for war.”
The Old Monarch was happy, but then he became a little worried, “I heard that Qi Hengqing has been urging his soldiers to practice every day since he took the throne half a year ago, and he has also purchased numerous horses from Beiwu Kingdom. Now Donglin Kingdom’s military strength couldn’t be compared to the past ah.”
Gong Moran said indifferently, “The Emperor can rest assured, this minister will go with the Emperor this time, the victory of Nanyun Kingdom is guaranteed.”
When the Old Monarch heard this, his previous contempt disappeared in a puff, he got up and bowed deeply, he didn’t care whether the State Teacher was holding a woman right now or not, even if this bow was also directed towards that woman, he still felt happy in his heart.
With State Teacher’s power that exceeded the sky, his Nanyun Kingdom won’t fear Donglin Kingdom in the slightest.
Gong Moran thought of something all of a sudden and looked at the Old Monarch, “If this minister isn’t wrong, once the war starts, Qi Hengqing will command his troops himself to boost morale, don’t know if the Emperor has this idea?”
Old Monarch immediately said, “With State Teacher’s protection, what fear should we have? We also want to command the troop in person and show to the world that our sword is still sharp!”
When the Old Monarch left, Nan Xun looked worried as she said, “My Lord, the sword has no eyes, do you really want to go?”
Gong Moran patted her head, “Duoduo, don’t be afraid, this Lord won’t meet any mishap, you can go with this Lord if you’re so worried.”
“Really? But I’m afraid that I will only drag my Lord back.” Nan Xun squinted so that she can see more clearly.
“With this Lord, no one would dare to say that you’re holding anyone back.” Gong Moran paused and asked her, “Duoduo, Princess Yao only died just now, will you blame this Lord for taking revenge for you this late?”
Although it took long for this woman to die, but her death was very painful, which was definitely better than killing her directly. This was her retribution, she should never have plotted against Duoduo, let alone wanted to kill Duoduo.
Nan Xun uttered, “Of course not, in fact, if she had no bad thoughts and tricked me into that side palace and wanted me to marry the Fifth Prince, I wouldn’t be able to righteously… with my Lord… cough, anyway, it turned into something good.”
Hearing this, Gong Moran didn’t feel embarrassed, he only smiled slightly, “So this Lord just thought too much, nearly let down Duoduo’s affection.”
…
Five days later, Nanyun Kingdom sent an armed group of soldiers to send written challenge to war to Donglin, and with troops each led by their respective monarch, the situation on the battlefield became fierce.
The soldiers from Donglin were brave and good at fighting, while Qi Hengqing was wise and full of stratagems. It looked like Nanyun Kingdom was about to be utterly beaten in the past four months, but suddenly a strange phenomenon occurred in a very crucial time.
They obviously had been attacked with fire when the enemy’s OP State Teacher used his wizardry to let down heavy rain from the sky and extinguished their fire in a matter of seconds. They also had successfully surrounded Nanyun Kingdom’s troop tightly when all of a sudden, a typhoon made a crack for Nanyun’s troop to rush out.
