Kryptonian fate deduction, invincibility starts from killing monsters
#447 - Hidden Dragon Guard Commander
"Prime Minister Zhang, this is all the translated content."
Yun Li put down the book in his hand and let out a long sigh.
Opposite him, Prime Minister Zhang frowned, seemingly still immersed in the content Yun Li had just described.
Just as Yun Li had said before, apart from the records predating the Great Ming Dynasty, the content recorded on those items had little of use.
Most of it was promotional material and the like.
However, Prime Minister Zhang still gleaned some information from it.
How to use this information, especially to transform their previous plans into a method of the Great Ming Dynasty, still required some thought.
While pondering, Prime Minister Zhang glanced out the window.
Without realizing it, the sun had already set.
"Shen Lin hasn't returned yet?"
He murmured with some doubt.
Yun Li also wondered, "Indeed, given his efficiency, even if the stone tablet was covered in writing, he should have finished translating it by now."
However, immediately afterward, he seemed to remember something and realized, "I suppose the Li family kept him as a guest."
"The Li family has always been very attentive to young talents; when I first broke through to the Stellar Realm, they invited me once."
Prime Minister Zhang sneered, "Very attentive? Hmph, more like coercion and enticement, wanting to make those geniuses without background their retainers, isn't it?"
Yun Li smiled wryly, "Indeed, if I hadn't inadvertently revealed my background, they might have resorted to force."
Prime Minister Zhang muttered helplessly, "These aristocratic families..."
"Prime Minister Zhang, do you need me to go take a look? With Shen Lin's personality, the two sides might end up fighting."
"No need!" A meaningful smile appeared on Prime Minister Zhang's face as he shook his head, saying, "That kid won't suffer a loss."
After speaking, he stretched lazily, saying, "I'm getting old; my body is getting worse day by day."
"Just wait here for one night. Tomorrow morning, bring Shen Lin to find me."
"Understood." Yun Li bowed respectfully, saying, "Tomorrow morning, Shen Lin and I will go to the Prime Minister's residence to find you."
"Ah..."
Hearing this, Prime Minister Zhang paused for a moment, scratching his beard, saying, "Tomorrow, go to my suburban villa to find me."
"Tonight, I have to go back and clean up the Prime Minister's residence."
Leaving these words, Prime Minister Zhang turned and left.
Watching that figure walking away slowly with his hands clasped behind his back, Yun Li was somewhat puzzled.
Clean up the Prime Minister's residence?
Shouldn't such things be the responsibility of the servants?
......
After leaving Shen Lin's house, Prime Minister Zhang got into his carriage.
The coachman, with a simple and honest face and dressed in linen clothes, whispered as he helped him into the carriage, "The insects have emerged."
Prime Minister Zhang paused for a moment and sighed.
"Act according to the previous instructions."
The coachman nodded, saying, "Understood!"
The carriage moved slowly along the street, looking very low-key.
The roads of the Great Wei Imperial Capital were very lively at night.
There were many ornate carriages pulled by various exotic beasts, and those sitting inside were all famous figures of Great Wei.
However, upon seeing the simple carriage approaching, no matter how majestic the beast pulling the carriage or how ornate the carriage decorations, they would instinctively stop to the side, obediently waiting for the carriage to leave before continuing.
Because that seemingly simple carriage had a plaque with peeling paint hanging on it.
The words written on it were also very concise.
"Get out of the way!"
The handwriting was crooked and clumsy, obviously not the work of a famous calligrapher.
However, from the small soldiers guarding the city gates to the high-ranking officials in the court, everyone who saw these words would praise them as unrestrained and unconventional, with the style of a master.
Because these were the personal inscription of Zhang Qiuji, the current Prime Minister of Great Wei.
Everyone in the Great Wei Imperial Capital knew that if a carriage bore this plaque, it was best to quickly move aside.
It was rumored that Prime Minister Zhang disliked extravagance and preferred simplicity when traveling.
However, in the past, such simple carriages would often be stopped and harassed by those who didn't have eyes.
Then, there would be the well-loved scene of Prime Minister Zhang appearing and the other party kneeling and begging for forgiveness.
After many times, Prime Minister Zhang also found it annoying and a waste of time.
So he wrote this plaque and hung it on the carriage.
Since then, the aristocratic families who used to like speeding on the Imperial Capital Avenue have become much more well-behaved.
Even when encountering ordinary carriages, they no longer acted arrogantly, obediently following the rules.
They were afraid that Prime Minister Zhang would change carriages one day and they wouldn't recognize it.
The carriage went smoothly all the way and soon returned to the Prime Minister's residence.
Prime Minister Zhang got out of the carriage, looked at the quiet residence, shook his head, sighed, and stepped inside.
Ignoring the missing guards on both sides of the gate, and not caring that the steward did not come out to greet him today.
Prime Minister Zhang walked slowly to the central courtyard with the coachman.
Reaching this point, he finally encountered figures.
A total of three, standing quietly on the garden path, seemingly waiting for a long time.
At that moment, fireworks were set off somewhere in the city.
The brilliant fireworks brought a faint light, illuminating the faces of these people.
Prime Minister Zhang narrowed his eyes, after all, he was only a mortal, and it took some effort to see the appearance of the visitors clearly.
"Song Zhiqiang, Fei Zheng, Zhu Guanghui..."
"You look somewhat different from the portraits."
Prime Minister Zhang smiled, seemingly not surprised by their appearance here.
Noticing this, Song Zhiqiang, the leader, frowned slightly, and a bad feeling arose in his heart for some reason.
"I have long heard that Prime Minister Zhang has the ability to remember everything he sees; I didn't expect you to recognize the three of us."
He couldn't help but speak to test the waters.
It should be known that the three of them were all old ancestors hidden for countless years by the major aristocratic families, and the last time the youngest Fei Zheng appeared in front of people was three hundred years ago.
But this Zhang Qiuji actually recognized the identities of the three of them at a glance.
Prime Minister Zhang smiled and said, "There are many aristocratic families in the Imperial Capital, but among them, the most prosperous are only a few of you."
"The ones most dissatisfied with me are also a few of you."
"Now that you have reached the limit of your patience and are preparing to overturn the table, it can only be a few of you."
"Tell me, how could I not pay attention to those few Dharma Aspect Realm experts hidden by you?"
After saying these words, the expressions of the three people opposite immediately became solemn.
Song Zhiqiang subconsciously looked around, repeatedly confirming that there were no ambushes, before asking in confusion, "You knew?"
Prime Minister Zhang nodded and said, "I knew from five years ago."
Song Zhiqiang gasped, subconsciously looking at the two people beside him.
Five years ago...
That was exactly when they had just begun to gather and discuss today's plan.
But at that time, those present were all key figures of the various aristocratic families.
Now that Zhang Xiang had stated this matter in one breath, there could only be one reason.
There was someone among them who was Zhang Xiang's person?
"Hidden Dragon Guard?"
Song Zhiqiang subconsciously murmured.
Prime Minister Zhang remained noncommittal, only sighing:
"Since I took office, the people of Great Wei have had a chance to breathe, but you parasites have been expressing your dissatisfaction."
"Secretly, you have also set many obstacles for me."
"Don't you know that if Great Wei becomes strong, you aristocratic families will also grow stronger?"
"You know, you know very well. But you just can't stand others being the same as you. Even at the cost of your own losses, you have to suppress others."
"What are you plotting?"
"I have thought about this matter for a long time, from when I was young until now."
"Not long ago, I finally understood."
"What you want is not the growth of the family, not any benefits."
"What you value more is the high and mighty status, to trample most people under your feet, only then will you feel comfortable, only then will you..."
"Enough!!!"
Before Prime Minister Zhang could finish speaking, Fei Zheng, a Dharma Aspect Realm expert hidden for many years by another aristocratic family, shouted angrily and stepped forward.
"Even if you know our plan, what's the use?"
"The accurate information we have obtained indicates that Yuwen Fengxian and the others have already arrived at the border."
"Within the Great Wei Imperial Capital, only Gao Yichen, who can't even protect himself, remains."
"Now, facing the three of us, no matter how high your wisdom is, Zhang Qiuji, what's the use?"
"In the face of absolute power, your methods are ridiculous!"
Fei Zheng's words allowed Song Zhiqiang to regain his senses, and he chuckled as he stepped forward, looking at the coachman behind Prime Minister Zhang, saying, "This is your trump card?"
"The rumored commander of the Hidden Dragon Guard?"
The coachman remained silent, standing quietly behind Prime Minister Zhang without responding.
Song Zhiqiang didn't mind, saying to himself, "Since we have made plans, we have naturally investigated everything about you."
"Such as the Hidden Dragon Guard directly under your command."
"On the surface, this Hidden Dragon Guard is controlled by the Zhong family of the Imperial Capital, but the actual commander is this unremarkable coachman, right?"
"The rumored Loose Cultivator who had already passed away a hundred years ago, Mr. Qianying!"
"Back then, you were the best at lightness techniques in the Mixed Origin Realm, and after breaking through to the Dharma Aspect Realm, you have been working under Zhang Qiuji."
"With such cultivation, why be subservient to others? If you turn back now, we will definitely give you everything you want."
After these words, the coachman finally reacted.
But the person he spoke to was Prime Minister Zhang.
"My lord, may I kill this idiot first?"
Prime Minister Zhang chuckled, saying, "No need to get angry for these guys; frogs at the bottom of a well can't jump too high."
Sometimes, Prime Minister Zhang was also very helpless.
He wanted to take everyone in Great Wei out of this cage and live freely under the sky.
But there are always bad teammates who insist on ruining his plans.
This time, it's good that these people jumped out.
It's just right to solve them together with the Wan Yao Kingdom.
Only by eliminating both external and internal troubles can they devote all their energy to the upcoming great cause.
Seeing their indifferent attitude, Song Zhiqiang on the opposite side finally couldn't bear it and reprimanded loudly, "Hopeless, in that case, don't blame us for being ruthless!"
"Why waste words with them, just kill them!"
Fei Zheng grinned, and as he rubbed his hands together, a black-red light spread from his palms.
"That's right! Why bother with a mere early stage Dharma Appearance Realm cultivator... Wah!"
Seeing the aura on the two of them begin to surge, Zhu Guanghui stepped forward, ready to attack together.
But as soon as he took a few steps, he felt a piercing pain in his back and couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
He reacted extremely quickly, instantly turning around and slashing out with his blade.
But he only hit a phantom image.
Fei Zheng retreated leisurely, his face indifferent as he said, "Fei Zheng, commander of the Hidden Dragon Guard, greets you both!"
