Chapter 89: Endure
For the entire morning, Ling Pingan fought in the canyon.
He was at the top and was successful in every move he played.
The outstanding battle record and excellent operation naturally attracted so people’s attention.
He received private ssages from teams of all sizes in his mailbox gradually.
Without exception, they all invited him to go for a trial.
However, Ling Pingan rejected all of them. In the end, he simply turned off the private ssages.
The reason was quite simple. Playing video gas was a hobby.
If a hobby beca a job or a profession, then a hobby would beco a bad thing.
Moreover, becoming a professional was very tiring.
Just look at those office workers. They worked from nine to five, day and night.
There were even leaders watching over them. Once they made a mistake, they might be reprimanded.
He lived his life happily. Why did he have to suffer the wrath of others for a few stinky money? Why did he have work under the mood of others?
Tao Yuanming would not bow to the superior in order to get the scanty pay of rice.
Ling Pingan would not suffer the wrath of others for money either.
He was not short of money to spend!
Ling Pingan put down his phone and brewed himself a cup of fragrant tea.
Then, he gave a small cup to the kitten, Bastet. The man and the kitten were drinking tea happily at the counter.
“I am not going to play gas in the afternoon!” Ling Pingan thought, “I’ll work on the new book…”
After deleting one beginning after another in the past two days, Ling Pingan was getting so idea.
This ti, he decided to write about the King Soldier of the City.
… … … ..
Liu Zhi raised his head and looked at his father.
The current son of the Emperor of Xinghan, the guardian and protector of the Xinghan temple.
The representative of the Black Dragon Emperor was already old.
More than ten years ago, the kings with the sa surna in the south started a rebellion under the instigation of the followers of Tzeentch.
The tip of the spear pointed straight at Chang ‘an.
In the end, the rebellion was wiped off by the cooperation of General Zhou Yafu and King Liang.
However, the Emperor suffered serious internal injuries from then on.
Even he had won the battle with the brothers of the sa surna, it was a pyrrhic victory.
That battle had shattered the main cards in the temple into few pieces.
Xinghan’s vitality had been greatly damaged.
So of these injuries had directly appeared on the Emperor’s body, causing him to suffer from a serious illness and reduce most of his lifespan!
“Zhi!” Although the old son of Heaven’s dragon blood was exhausted, he still had enough power.
Although he was just lying there, the dragon might on his body still filled the palace.
“Father!” Liu Zhi knelt in front of his father’s bed. “I’m back!”
“It’s good that you’re back!” The old Emperor looked at his heir affectionately. “It’s good that you’re back!”
“I just t your aunt…” the old Emperor sat up and held Liu Zhi’s hand. “she’s here to plead for rcy!”
Liu Zhi showed an angry look, but he imdiately lowered his eyes. “I’ll listen to your arrangents, father!”
The old Emperor nodded in satisfaction. “My son has grown up!”
He said to himself, “my body will not be able to hold on for long. I will return to the temple and et with the Gaozu and Taizong…”
The souls of the successive emperors of the Xinghan Kingdom would enter the main temple after their deaths.
They would continue to bless and protect the country, and at the critical mont, they could bend over the clothes that were worshipped in the temple and fight for the country.
However, every ti they showed their divinity, they would consu the vitality of the country and their souls.
Therefore, unless it was necessary, the ancestors, generals, and ministers enshrined in the temple would not appear.
The rebellion that happened more than ten years ago had already damaged the vitality of the country seriously.
Liu Zhi understood what his father ant. Now, he needed to endure and lay low.
“At that ti!” The old Emperor looked at his son, the future heir, and said, “you still have to rely on your aunt. Letting her go to the Changle Palace and deal with the Empress Dowager!”
“Then let the Empress Dowager support you!”
“I understand!” Liu Zhi said calmly, “everything is for the country and the world!”
“That’s good, that’s good…” the old Emperor touched the crown on his son’s head with great relief. He did not ask how Liu Zhi escaped.
Because he did not need to.
The royal family of Xinghan had always been like this.
They would not ask about the process, only the results.
… … ..
Walking out of his father’s bedroom, a few panda-n guards imdiately followed.
The panda-n were the most trusted personal guards of the royal family in this land since ancient tis.
For thousands of years, they had also used their loyalty to prove their reliability.
Just like last night when Liu Zhi was assassinated, the eighteen panda-n guards protecting him had all died in battle!
“Your Highness…”
“Your Highness…” Liu Zhi had just walked down the steps when a voice that made him feel nauseous ca from behind him.
He turned around and showed an extrely gentle and friendly smile. “Zhang Huangn… I haven’t seen you for a long ti…”
The person who ca was the personal eunuch of his mother, the Assistant Minister of the Huangn, Zhang Xian.
He was a standard follower of Tzeentch.
Starting from the ancestral dragon, these followers of Tzeentch were comfortable in the royal palace.
Especially the concubines in the harem, they all trusted and relied on their ideas and plans.
After all, there was no better place than the harem to play tricks and sche.
The concubine in the harem itself was a huge market!
Zhang Xian narrowed his eyes and walked in front of Liu Zhi. He knelt and kowtowed, saying, “this servant pays respects to the Crown Prince again!”
“Your Highness…” he raised his head and said with a chuckle, “Her Majesty the Empress ordered this servant to bring a servant to apologize to Your Highness!”
“Your Highness, please do show due respect to Her Majesty the Empress and receive this servant rcifully!”
“Listen to what this dog wants to say… It’s not too late to get angry after that…”
Of course, Liu Zhi knew who was coming.
It must be the leader of the rat-n who had assassinated him last night.
These dirty rats had obtained a piece of territory in Guyuan by bribing the current empress dowager and Taizong’s most favored concubines and obtaining Taizong’s permission.
Thus, these rats had always had a good relationship with the concubines of the imperial palace.
Therefore, Liu Zhi was not angry. He even smiled and said calmly, “since it is the recomndation of Zhang Huangn, then I am willing to listen!”
A mont later, an old rat-man stumbled in front of Liu Zhi.
He knelt with a thud. “This ignorant and vulgar rat-man Asin from afar pays his respects to the Honorable Crown Prince of the Milky Way Empire, the future guardian, and protector of the Temple!”
As he spoke, he kowtowed with a thud. “This lowly one is guilty. This rat-man deserves to die!”
“This lowly one has failed in teaching and discipline. I caused so ignorant, foolish, and audacious bastards to commit such a heinous cri like assassinating your highness under the instigation of others…”
“This lowly one and all the rat-n know that this is a deadly cri that cannot be forgiven even if they die for it ten thousand tis…”
“But without Your Highness’s decision… This lowly one and all the rat-n would not dare to take their own lives as to avoid tarnishing your highness’ benevolence…”
“So, I made my own decision. I’ve already killed those stupid dogs who were used and bewitched by others…”
As it spoke, soone brought boxes to Liu Zhi.
The boxes were opened, revealing the rat-n’s heads that had been slaughtered.
Liu Zhi listened to the words and then looked at those heads.
The anger and dissatisfaction in his heart surged up like never before.
He felt humiliated, offended, and belittled.
But he hid these emotions very well.
He even hoped that outsiders would understand him as soone careless and easily believed in others.
After last night’s events, the crown prince of Xinghan Kingdom had grown up.
So, he smiled and personally went forward to help the old rat-man up. “I know the loyalty of the Aisin clan!”
“Mother, aunt, and the empress dowager have told more than once that the Aisin rat-n have contributed to the country…”
“So, old sir, you don’t have to bla yourself…”
“Since these sinners are already dead… Let’s close this matter…”
“I will send soone to cancel the arrest and punishnt of the Aisin clan…”
“Thank you, Your Highness!” The rat-man’s face was covered in tears as he imdiately knelt and kowtowed again.
Liu Zhi helped him up again and comforted him, “old sir, don’t worry so much…”
“When you go back, tell the entire clan that I and the entire Xinghan Kingdom will not bla them…”
“Tell them not to have any burdens and continue to serve the Xinghan’s society and the Ancestral Temple!”
That was a bitter fruit that he had to swallow!
Liu Zhi was clear that his current strength was not enough.
He had to endure it!
He could only endure it!
But…
“I won’t endure your act for too long…” he touched the handwritten notes of the ancestral dragon in his sleeve.
He would imdiately start to manufacture and produce the terracotta army according to the notes in the book.
Once the number of the terracotta army reached a certain level…
It would be ti for him to take revenge!
Not just on the rat-n of the Aisin clan…
