Chapter 249: Assassination Attemp



249 Assassination Attemp

Capital of Ming Kingdom

The emperor was reading the news of Nanglong family nearly defeated with heavy feeling. He soon heard that the reason for getting pushed back was because Soujin was away during the first part because he was visiting the east border. It was the news that Soujin let out to cover up his real journey.After he had returned, he turned the table real quick.

Normally, such news would make him happy, but the current situation was pressing him hard. There was no way to know what his feeling right now. The north lost, the northwest was being taken back and the west was total lost. All in all, he had been done in heavily.

The battle this time was not a good thing for him. He has heavy losses, and the winning could barely keep him from going insane. If not for Soujin saying that he wanted to do the fight however he wanted, he would surely ask the other party to come here this instant and go to the west.

The advance of Pan Kingdom was halted since they wanted to build a fortress and it would take some time to finish. During this time, they could try to take back the territory they had lost. With Nanglong family protecting the east, they didn\'t need to worry for Kai Kingdom invasion. The Lan family still have a lot of soldiers and the emperor planned to use them all to take back what he had lost.

"Your Majesty, there is a news from Strategist Wu," a messenger hurriedly come.

"What is it?"

"Because of assassins attack, they would need to delay the arrival to the capital."

That news made the temperature inside the palace drops tremendously. The emperor was looking towards the messenger with fury. Who dared to attack his favorite son?

On the side, Ming Kui sneered silently, but he hid his expression. Hearing that something had happened to Ming Gong quickly made the emperor angry, but what about the rest? Were we only decorations in your eyes?

The difference in attitude of the emperor made Ming Kui hated his father even more. Regardless of that, the relationship between the father and son were never close since the other party was too \'busy\'.

"How is Ming Gong?"

"Prince Ming Gong is safe. Other than being frightened, he\'s fine."

Deep inside, many of the officials frowned upon hearing that news. The prince was being frightened? Was he a little girl to get scared at mere assassination attempt? Without the emperor realizing it, the image of Ming Gong had gone downhill in their eyes over the recent years.

The emperor nodded. "When will they arrive?"

"This evening," the messenger said respectfully.

The emperor looked towards the other officials and sure enough all of them need to investigate who dare to try to assassinate the emperor son. No one dared to slack off in front of the emperor and they scurried away to do their investigation.

Lan family residence

Ever since the loss of the information agency that his brother had, Lan Teng has been trying his best to build a new one from scratch. However, they couldn\'t maintain the same efficiency and often failed in their attempt.

Sometime, it made Lan Teng furious. The news they brought the past few days almost made him vomited blood. Today even more so, the news they brought made his heart shattered.

"Lan Pan is dead?"

Although he never regarded Lan Pan as more than a tool, Lan Teng placed great importance into that person. Hearing that Lan Pan was already dead at the hand of Pan Kingdom, he felt that the fury that he had been suppressing over hearing that Lan Ping was detained started to explode.

"Tell me the detail!"

"Yes… Lan Pan makes his way in the territory of Pan Kingdom, leaving many trails of blood behind," the person stammered. "At the end of the trail, he is being surrounded and killed with a deep wound."

PAK!

Lan Teng smashed the table before him heavily. His expressions darkened. How could Lan Pan be defeated by mere ordinary soldiers? He knew full well of that person strength, other than those great general, there was barely anyone who could match him, moreover giving him heavy wound.

With that thought inside his mind, he believed that there was more to the eye than what they told him. If only he had the information agency of the Lan Family. Closing his eyes, he tried to calm down.

"Master…"

"What is it?" being interrupted while he was angry, Lan Teng voice turned sharper.

"Maybe he\'s lacking in stamina? He\'s fighting for days…" the messenger didn\'t know where he got the courage to speak.

Lan Teng face became even darker. That was one possibility that he didn\'t want to think about. But everyone needed to eat for energy and journeying without eating and sleeping for days, what kind of monster would still be able to fight?

Although he believed that Lan Pan would be able to hold on, he knew that his strength would weaken significantly. That meant, even those at the level of general could defeat him. This fact made him even angrier.

"Master...?"

"Scram!"

The messenger ran away without any delay as Lan Teng looked towards the reports. This news was truly big for him and he was unable to accept it right away.

"That idiot!"

Now, his only hope was Lan Ping. He didn\'t know what the enemies did after they got him, but he hoped that the other party would be fine.

Standing up from his seat, he quickly arranged another small group to infiltrate the place. No matter what it took, he would take his son back.
