Chapter 387: The Jumping Honor Guard



The old emperor's request...

It's simple, yet not easy.

The palace has formations and secret guards. Without Kong Sheng's company, Kong Hanan might not even be able to get in.

But although Confucius was a saint and the leader of Confucianism, he was not a monk.

Putting aside his talent and national destiny, he might just be an ordinary mortal.

Not to mention the old emperor, he is just a dried corpse, and if he moves too vigorously, he might fall apart.

Moreover, he carried the corpse of the founding emperor of the Great Qi Dynasty on his back and galloped through the imperial city with Confucius in tow...

That picture is so beautiful...

Kong Hanan dared to guarantee that if he did this, he would be pierced by thousands of arrows as soon as he left the imperial study.

The guards don't care whether you have accepted any mission or not.

This looks like the corpse stealer who coerced Confucius...

The stolen body was the body of the founding emperor of the Great Qi Dynasty...

The old emperor's aged voice sounded again.

"I know what you are worried about. Don't worry, I am a reasonable person."

"Prime Minister, won't you come and help me?"

Confucius stood up respectfully and carefully supported the old emperor's arm, which was so shriveled that only a skeleton remained.

The old emperor stood up from the dragon throne tremblingly.

“Plop”, “Plop”, “Plop”…

As the old emperor stood up, the corpse hanging upside down on the roof seemed to finally be affected by gravity and fell to the ground.

"Some of these people were once my eunuchs and guards, and some were later hired by my good son to get rid of me."

"No matter what, they are also part of my Great Qi, so let them come with me."

"Squeak~~"

The door of the imperial study was opened by a corpse dressed as a eunuch.

All the corpses on the floor of the imperial study crawled up.

They fell backwards, causing their necks to become twisted and crooked, which was quite creepy.

Whether they were monks, nuns, or guards and eunuchs, they all lined up in a tacit understanding.

"Yeah, they're all dead, so they don't move very fast. But that's OK. I can't move very fast in my current state."

"Let's go~!"

A group of about thirty or forty moving corpses jumped and leaped towards the outside of the imperial study.

Confucius supported the old emperor and slowly followed behind him...

Kong Hanan felt a little weak in the legs.

Your Majesty, are you sure you understand my concerns?

Are you really reasonable?

You are parading in the streets!

Or parading in the imperial city!

When I, the Pluto, came in, a group of zombies came out...

This is worse than stealing corpses...

It was originally a mission to deliver items, but now it has become an escort mission...

What kind of combat effectiveness can a group of zombies have? Wouldn’t I have to be invincible in the imperial city?

What will the people of Da Qi think tomorrow?

I'm staging a terrorist attack in the Imperial City!

I can't clear myself!

If Kong Hanan wasn't a statue right now, he would definitely be in tears.

"Boy, why are you still sitting here? Follow me!"

"Don't be afraid, those guards won't dare to do anything to me..."

"However, I hope they really dare..."

Kong Hanan climbed up and followed on the auspicious cloud.

"What do you mean, Your Majesty?"

What comfort did he have in being the old emperor? Unexpectedly, he heard the old emperor's sigh again.

"Ah, I have spent my life in battle, fought countless battles, seen nations reduced to seas of fire, countless heroes buried on the battlefield, and countless capitals and royal courts destroyed by my command..."

"But I always feel like something is missing..."

"Now, I've figured it out. In my life, the only thing missing from my entire life in the imperial palace is that I've never fought a battle..."

"You say, should I look forward to it?"

Kong Hanan: ...

The gentle voice of Confucius reached Kong Hanan's ears.

“Han An, the older you are, the younger you are. His Majesty wants to play, so let’s accompany him.”

Kong Hanan turned his head to look at Kong Sheng, and saw Kong Sheng winking at him mischievously...

Kong Hanan fell silent again.

Uncle, it’s easy for you to say.

Who is more likely to resurrect the dead, the Prime Minister or Hades?

It's not you who should bear the blame...

The power of faith in this statue's clone is very weak, just enough for him to pretend.

Auspicious Clouds is a passive skill for advancing to Godhood, and it doesn't cost much.

If he had known this would happen, he might as well have switched to a statue with stronger power of faith...

At least he could open a passage to the underworld, summon the army of the underworld, and let the old emperor command them to his heart's content.

Kong Hanan sighed.

It seems that he has to take the blame.

"Your Majesty, additional requests require additional service fees!"

In the Golden Palace, the prince sat on the dragon throne and kept shaking, as if he was frightened.

There is a big difference between the Crown Prince and the Eldest Prince. The Eldest Prince has at least led troops and fought in battles, but the Crown Prince is a flower raised in a greenhouse.

How could he not panic when he saw someone die in front of him for the first time?

"What is he...what is he doing?"

"I, I just want to use him to humiliate that bastard Kong Han'an and teach the Prime Minister a lesson. Why should he die in front of me?"

The prince's voice was trembling and he stuttered a little.

He couldn't understand how sad and angry a person who had seen the chaotic world, carried the burden of family, and regarded taking the imperial examination to become an official as a way to change his destiny would feel when he had his results cancelled for such a ridiculous reason.

The eunuch was actually also shocked.

While he was frantically arranging people to clean up the scene, he whispered to the prince.

"Your Majesty, you are frightened. Why don't you go back and rest?"

The situation of the collapse of the heavens affected all the counties, but it certainly would not affect the capital, so almost no one in the imperial city could see ghosts.
