Chapter 241 Dog bites dog!
"What--!?"
"What-!? This is impossible- this is absolutely impossible!?"
The two voices sounded almost at the same time. The old emperor's scream had just fallen. Kong Guoxiong, who was standing there, was almost about to jump up, glaring at the guard who came to pass the message, and he was almost slapped him twice!
"Tell me clearly - what's going on!? Didn't the Kong family's army all be transferred back to Nancheng to maintain the order of the wedding? How could it suddenly appear outside the imperial city!?"
The old emperor has been the emperor for many years, and he still has this calmness. He quickly forced himself to calm down from the shock and asked in a deep voice with a gloomy face. However, the momentum on his body has begun to unconsciously emit outward. A few decades ago, he was also one of the famous super experts on the entire Magic Martial Arts Continent. Although he has been old for a long time, his fighting spirit has increased since childhood. He either does not decrease but does not take action. Once he really decides to take action, it will definitely be earth-shaking strength!
"Your Majesty, my subordinates don't know about this matter. Ten minutes ago, the figure of the Kong family army had already appeared in the distance. They ignored the warning of the Imperial City Imperial Guards and came directly outside the city to confront each other. The leader seemed to be General Wang Gang, the commander of the Kong family's 108 guards! He brought all the 150,000 troops from the Kong family to outside the imperial city, holding Your Majesty's order in your hand that you would come to the city to meet Your Majesty, but we did not receive any notice, so we dared not let it go. My subordinates rushed back and reported, wonder if this is really the case?"
"Impossible - I, the soldiers of my Kong family, could they mobilize the army at will without my husband's orders!? Your Majesty, there must be something strange about this matter! Please allow me to go out and check it out in person!"
After hearing the guard's words, Kong Guoxiong had some bad premonition in his heart. Before the old emperor spoke, he asked anxiously that the army would directly attack the imperial city. This was a serious crime of beheading. Although he had some thoughts and ideas with the third prince, he had ten courage to make such a reckless decision at this time. Their plan was to make the third prince become the crown prince and start step by step. Where could he send troops directly to use the strong...
"Hehe, this is probably a bit inappropriate! Your Majesty, in my opinion, the one who cannot move around the world is the senior figures of the Kong family. If the old general Kong goes out to issue an offensive order now, the attack of the 150,000 troops and rely on the 50,000 imperial guards in the imperial city, I am afraid that even if it is blocked, there will be heavy casualties and injuries! Before we find out the truth of the matter, we suggest that General Kong, you and your children stay here and explain clearly..."
Long Jiu, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly interrupted. When he said this, Kong Guoxiong could no longer help but look at him with a gaze that he wanted to eat people. At this moment, the old emperor was hesitating and entangled in his heart. After such a bold sentence, Long Jiu would undoubtedly stimulate the old emperor's decision!
Sure enough, after hearing Long Jiu's words, the old emperor snorted coldly, turned to Kong Guoxiong's family with a ugly expression, and said in a deep voice: "Long Jiu's words are reasonable! The army outside the city does not know what the purpose of coming. I cannot let you, the leader, go out and issue any orders! Just in case, the Kong family army, you should give up the military power of the Kong family army for a while, and let me send someone out to appease the army outside the city first, and when everything is clear, then return the Kong family army to you! OK?"
Although the old emperor's words were reasonable and the best solution, it was not the case in Kong Guoxiong's ears. The more he had the military power for a long time, the more unwilling the person would be to hand over this powerful force easily, no matter what the reason was! The sudden situation now made Kong Guoxiong, who was already nervous, secretly doubt it, because since the guard came in, the third prince had never exchanged glances with him again, which made Kong Guoxiong start to suspect whether this was a huge conspiracy against their Kong family at the beginning...
The more I thought about it, the more I was unwilling to hand over my last trump card. The Kong family's 150,000 troops were carefully cultivated by generations, and now they are easily handed over to the old emperor. God knows if it can be brought back...
"Your Majesty - this matter cannot be easily decided. The loyalty of the old minister is to be seen by heaven and earth! Never dare to let General Kong arrive at the imperial city without any orders! Please give the old minister some time, and the old minister is willing to guarantee the solution to this matter with his life! Your Highness, the Third Prince, you can testify, the old minister has absolutely no intention of rebellion! The old minister has always followed your orders!?"
It is said that rabbits will bite people if they are anxious. At this moment, Kong Guoxiong was anxious and suspicious in his heart, and he couldn't help but pull the third prince into the water. In his subconscious, Kong Guoxiong wondered whether everything was set up by this cunning prince to deal with his Kong family, so he didn't care about so much at this time and said such words directly. This made the officials in the court, including the old emperor, stare at the third prince who did not say a word. No one expected that this prince, who seemed to have never contacted generals, could command the Kong family, one of the five major families!
"Actes - what's going on!? When did you have a good relationship with the Kong family army? Why don't I know about this matter??"
If Long Jiu's words could only make the old emperor a little suspicious of this son, what Kong Guoxiong said now made the old emperor really start to doubt the third son. The third prince who has been in the palace since he was a child has almost never been out. It is no exaggeration to say that he has the most opportunities to contact the officials who come to the morning court every day! However, for so many years, the third prince has been very low-key, so the old emperor has never paid too much attention to this young son. How could he know that Kong Guoxiong's words now made the old emperor have a lot of imagination!
"I... my father is very careful! My son doesn't know what the Kong family army is talking about! Although my son has talked with him several times, he has never ordered him to do anything! These things have nothing to do with my son! It must be because this old guy has a strange intention to rebel! But he also wants to slander my son! Please ask my father to make the decision for my son!"
The third prince knelt on the ground with a little panic expression. In fact, after the guard spoke, he felt something was wrong. Kong Guoxiong had never told him that the Kong family army would come to the imperial city directly. He could not guess what the Kong family army would do at this time! Because he did not practice martial arts and magic, the third prince's psychological endurance was not very good, and now he was even more panicked. While Kong Guoxiong was suspicious of him, he could not help but start to think randomly, subconsciously thinking that the Kong family really wanted to take advantage of this time! Although he had ambition, the third prince liked to follow the steps and come step by step. Such a sudden big move was a little scared. Unlike the decisive and reckless brother, his courage was not so great.
"You - His Highness, the Third Prince, I did everything to make you as the crown prince! Now you actually bite you! You are the only one who can secretly mobilize my Kong family army except me! You said - are you trying to annex my Kong family army, so you want us to die!?"
Seeing the reaction of the third prince, Kong Guoxiong immediately became more convinced of his judgment! Under each other's suspicion, the two old foxes began to fight in their own nests because the reaction was a bit unexpected. The so-called dog biting dogs meant the situation in front of them! The culprit of everything was that the 150,000 Kong family army suddenly appeared outside the imperial city for some reason!
The 150,000 army is a force that cannot be ignored even on the battlefield. The total army of the entire Dragon Empire is less than 2 million. The 150,000 army owned by the Kong family is also a force that cannot be ignored. Especially for the sensitive imperial city, once these 150,000 troops are really allowed to attack, it will be declared the end of the Dragon Empire! Once the Kong family army succeeds, even if Kong Guoxiong or the third prince wants to ascend the throne on the spot! But once they fail, what awaits them will be an endless consequence! Whether Kong Guoxiong or the third prince, they are actually very cautious and do not like to take risks. So after suddenly hearing the news, both sides retreated, which is reasonable!
Unfortunately, Kong Guoxiong and the third prince did not notice it at this time. Long Jiu, who was standing aside and watching the show, had the relaxed and disdainful gaze in his eyes. A few months ago, he saw blood all over his body and was seriously injured but did not forget to come to warn his two brothers. Long Jiu was moved and made up his mind that this time the Kong family really messed up him! So he wanted to take action! It angered a gangster who was not afraid of the world, but a very serious matter, countless despicable methods in the 21st century. Long Jiu was just a small test, and he didn't expect it to be so smooth!
