Chapter 200 - Capturing Darong Ka, The Truth Infuriates Everyone




\n“It’s not like that.” Darong Ka quickly explained, “My father was angered to death because your mother killed the two spirit snakes that he raised. He wasn’t killed at your mother’s hands. It’s true that I hate your mother. I also want to take revenge. That’s why I went to the capital and willingly became Taizi’s advisor.
“However, if I didn’t have Taizi and the Empress’ orders, how would I dare to attack Old General Mu? It’s not just this time. I was ordered by the Empress to cause those heavy storms that time you were having military training on Mount Yunmeng.”
Darong Ka was afraid that Zi You wouldn’t believe him. He gritted his teeth and continued, “I can obtain the Empress’ trust not because I know magic. But because I am…… I am the Empress’ lover.”
Zi You mocked and intimidated Darong Ka. And Darong Ka did indeed become scared and angry.
He groped around his neck for a long time and finally pulled out a woman’s undergarment. It was bright yellow with a red embroidered phoenix and peony and a gold chain.
Perhaps he thought that it was shameful for a man to wear a woman’s undergarment because Darong Ka’s bronzed face turned purple.
He was a bit embarrassed and a bit unreconciled as he said, “Don’t look down on people. I’m ugly, but I know a seduction technique. I know how to please women more than your Emperor. This undergarment is the love token that the Empress gave me and I gave her the Devil Ring.”
The soldiers were in an uproar once again. They scolded one after another.
“Shameless……”
“Sl*t. Wh*re. She should be paraded and put to death……”
Zi You waved her hand and ordered, “Take him away.”
Then she turned to her grandfather and asked in concern, “Grandfather, are you okay? Do you want to talk to the soldiers?”
Old General Mu nodded and stood up. He looked aggrieved and indignantly at the soldiers. “Fellow soldiers, I, Mu Junyuan, have lived an honest life. I am loyal to Great Yan and the Emperor. My Mu family’s army is also wholeheartedly loyal to the government. We are even willing to put our lives at risk.
“But what did we get in return? It’s murder. 4,325 soldiers! They didn’t die in the hands of the enemy. But they were killed by our country’s own Emperor, Empress, and Taizi…….”
Old General Mu tearfully hammered his chest. “My heart hurts…… What should I tell their parents? How should I avenge them……?”
“Revenge! Revenge! Revenge!……” More than 30,000 soldiers stood up together. They were boiling with excitement. Their surging anger and hatred made their blood boil!
Mu YingYi knelt down in front of Old General Mu. He shouted sorrowfully, “Father, we can’t be played by other people like monkeys. We are men in vain if we don’t seek vengeance!”
“We are men in vain if we don’t see vengeance!” The soldiers shouted along with Mu YingYi.
It was the same for third-rank Wu Yonghui. He sobbed, “Old General Mu, if the incapable ruler and demoness Empress don’t die, how can we…… face our brothers and sisters? My son…… is only twenty-three years old. His wife…… just gave birth. My son…… left just like that. Are our…… loved ones not human then?”
His sobs echoed. A man’s grief and heartbreak resonated more with people.
Sad cries sounded. At this moment, even the officials in Nanjiang’s Nanzhao government bowed their heads.
Zi You stood up and wiped her tears. She said firmly and strongly, “Comrades, don’t cry. We have to turn our grief into strength and seek revenge for our brothers and sisters who died in vain!”
“Revenge! Revenge! Revenge!” The orderly and angry cries shook Shangguan LingRan and Old General Mu’s hearts.
