Chapter 223 Triumphant Return



Although Ji Sheng's act of being a subservient grandson was quite convincing, who exactly was Jiang Ming?

Just because you give me a grand show doesn't mean I'll necessarily give you face.

Jiang Ming isn't the kind of person who can't bring himself to do something!

What's more... there's still a faint stench of corpses and blood in the air of Luoyi City!

"Welcome back in triumph, Fang Bo!"

Emperor Ji Sheng of the Great Gan Dynasty not only bowed to Jiang Ming, but even wanted to personally lead Jiang Ming's horse.

Jiang Ming frowned slightly, raised his hand, and immediately the Xianbei warriors on both sides rushed forward and captured Ji Sheng!

Ji Sheng was shocked and cried out, struggling violently: "Lord Fangbo! King of Chu! What does this mean? Why are you binding me?"

The other officials, both civil and military, who were kneeling to welcome Jiang Ming were also shocked and looked at each other in disbelief!

Jiang Ming, with a gloomy face, lightly touched his chin, and immediately the second batch of Xianbei warriors rushed up and arrested two-thirds of the ministers according to the names on Jiang Ming's previous "arrest list"!

For a moment, the entire welcoming procession kneeling outside Luoyi City was paralyzed with fear; some even wet their pants in terror...

Jiang Ming didn't say a word the whole time, and rode his tall horse into the city.

A mighty and imposing army, clad in gleaming silver helmets and armor, followed behind...

Emperor Ji Sheng, along with the arrested treacherous officials, were all dragged into the court like chickens.

The tall and strong Changsun Hu grabbed Emperor Ji Sheng by the collar and kicked him to the ground below the steps of the palace, while Jiang Ming... went straight up to the steps of the palace and stood beside the dragon throne.

The other ministers who hadn't been arrested also arrived in the hall, trembling with fear, and took their positions, large beads of sweat dripping down their faces...

Although Ji Sheng was indeed ruthless and cruel!

But compared to Jiang Ming, his reputation for bloodthirstiness is nothing but a chicken compared to an eagle!

Throughout the entire Great Gan Dynasty, from its founding to the present day, several hundred years have passed, and the total number of people who have died due to war is estimated to be no more than 2 million.

Of those 1.3 million, Jiang Ming was responsible for the killings!

Calling him "the butcher" Fang Bo is not an exaggeration at all.

Killing someone is easier for Jiang Ming than farting...

If Jiang Ming is truly unhappy, the entire population of Luoyi City could be slaughtered!

"Lord Fang, why are you arresting me? I... am innocent! Waaah!" Ji Sheng knelt on the ground and cried loudly.

"No mistake? Ha!"

Jiang Ming sneered, "The late king passed away and passed the throne to your brother Ji Chou. You murdered your brother to seize the throne, and you still have the nerve to say you are innocent?"

"Fang Borongbing!"

Ji Sheng crawled forward on his knees, his face full of grievance and pain as he explained, “Lord Fang, I am the eldest son! My elder brother… he is born of a concubine. According to the rites of Daqian, the throne should rightfully be inherited by me. My elder brother stole my throne, shouldn’t I rebel against him? Waaah! Lord Fang, you conquer all directions and uphold the dignity of Daqian… you should also uphold the dignity of Ganli!”

"absurd!"

Jiang Ming sneered, "Who should inherit the throne is up to your father, not the law! Your father told me long ago that your eldest brother should inherit the throne. You usurped the throne and even killed your own brothers. You are so tyrannical. Do you still deserve the word 'human'? No wonder your father would rather violate the law than pass the throne to you!"

"Lord Fang! I'm so wrong, I've made a terrible mistake... No matter what, you're still a loyal subject of my Great Gan, aren't you? Now I'm the only one left in the Great Gan royal family. Please forgive me, Lord Fang. From now on, I'll listen to you in everything... Waaah! Please forgive me, Lord Fang, waaah!"

Ji Sheng cried uncontrollably and started to "bug" Jiang Ming here.

"Just you alone? Ha!"

Jiang Ming sneered, "The descendants of the Ji family are all over the world. The rulers of Jin and Yan, which one of them wasn't a descendant of the Ji family? Do you think... only your branch can become the emperor?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Sheng trembled with fear.

That grandson of a man wiped out his entire branch of the family, but he couldn't possibly have wiped out all the descendants of the Ji clan!

That's true!

A few days ago, when he carried out the massacre, he found an excuse to kill the ruler of Jin, who had been settled in Luoyi and whose kingdom had been divided into three parts!

However, this does not mean that all descendants of the Ji clan were killed; there were still descendants of the Ji clan in the state of Yan...

"Someone come here!"

Jiang Ming pondered for a moment and said, "Take off his dragon robe, throw him out of the city, and execute him by slow slicing!"

"ah?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Sheng was so frightened that he almost peed himself!

"Fang Bo, don't kill me! I am the Emperor of the Great Gan Dynasty! You can't do this to me! I am the Emperor of the Great Gan Dynasty!" Ji Sheng cried out.

"What a load of bull! The so-called Great Emperor!"

Jiang Ming cursed, "Without my support and recognition, who agreed to let you become the Emperor of the Great Qian? When your brother Ji Chou ascended the throne, he sent me a letter, and I immediately expressed my support and congratulations. What about you? You sent me so many letters, did you even acknowledge them?"

"ah?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Sheng was filled with despair and collapsed to the ground. The warriors on either side dragged him away!

"And you ministers..."

Jiang Ming pondered for a moment and said, "Based on the crimes you committed before, all those who rebelled with Ji Sheng will be beheaded, and those who expressed loyalty and support after Ji Sheng became the 'false emperor' will all be subjected to the five punishments!"

Upon hearing this, the ministers who were being escorted began to wail and scream, all claiming that they were innocent!
