292 Perilous Situation for Ming Kingdom

Capital of Ming Kingdom

In the entire history of his life, this was the first time the emperor faced something as dire as now. Having two influential families in your kingdom suddenly turned their back towards you was surely not a wonderful experience. Not to mention that a person from another influential family was waiting for his doom at another kingdom.

On the side, Strategist Wu face also paled considerably. He had not calculated that the Nanglong family would suddenly turn their back and launch an attack like this. However, it was not like this was not possible considering how the emperor acted all these years.

Even he felt a bit helpless at the emperor acts. Although people respected him on the surface since he was the emperor, they would mock him on the back because of his action that didn\'t suit a leader. Many of them disagreed with his act of wanting the power over the entire kingdom, but they never did anything in fear of the power held by the emperor.

Now that the power on his hand decreased, how was it possible that they can rest easy? The number of riots may increase because they were the supporters of Jun and Nanglong family. It seemed the end of Ming Kingdom would occur during this emperor reign.

"Wu, make some strategy or whatever," the emperor said angrily.

Strategist Wu sighed. The power that the emperor held all these years had made him blinded and do thing foolishly. The way he governed had changed, and the past powerful emperor was no longer here. He didn\'t understand, what made the emperor possibly changed so much? Power or was it a woman?

He stole a glance at the calmly sitting empress. She didn\'t bear any child for the emperor, but all these years, she never lost the seat as the Empress. She was not an ordinary woman to make the emperor let her kept the seat all these years.

"Your Majesty, should the worst happen, you need to prepare a way out," Strategist Wu said calmly.

The emperor was extremely pissed by the decision of Strategist Wu, but he couldn\'t say anything in refute. The power he has was limited only to Lan family and Lin family.

"Wait, where that Lin person is?" it was only now did he remember about the person from the Lin family that he sent away to negotiate with the Kai Kingdom. Among the officials he has, only these two families were the best at handling international relation.

"He never returned," Strategist Wu answered.

"Did something happen to him?"

"We don\'t know," there was simply no time for them to investigate what had happened to the boy when they were in this dire situation. Just for fending off the enemy had taken them considerably damage and they couldn\'t spare any time to care for that person.

"You\'re really worthless!" the emperor bellowed.

Strategist Wu felt stifled. Why did he choose to follow this emperor in the first place? It didn\'t matter anymore, it\'s his role to finish every mess this person created. He really missed his old friends, too bad that only two people left from the four pillars of the emperor.

During the early years of the emperor reign, he had four close people handling the matter for him. Each of them was highly proficient in military, strategist, politics, and economic. Everything should have been perfect if only they didn\'t fall one by one because of the retaliation from the Jun and Lan family.

Strategist Wu took a deep breath. "Let me go to the east. I will take care of the Nanglong family."

As a famous strategist, he was not someone who didn\'t know anything. Rather, he knew a lot of things and used to lead the soldiers from the frontline along with Lan Teng. He didn\'t believe that he couldn\'t take care of that little brat named Nanglong Soujin. He will show that brat just what was called powerful.

"You better take care of yourself," the emperor agreed right on. If there was anyone he could trust perfectly, that would be this strategist. He was, after all, one of the four people that use to follow him since his youth.

"This subject will return soon."

Strategist Wu walked outside the hall with fast movement. This time, he needed to fight on the frontline again.

"Rei, don\'t lack behind."

"Yes master," Strategist Wu servant, who had been waiting for some time, hurriedly runs towards his master\'s side with a smile plastered on his face. "We are going again?"

"To the East," Strategist Wu answered.

"Understood," he answered energetically.

Inside the hall, the Emperor face didn\'t turn any better. He looked towards the only son he had here. "Gong\'er, is there anything you think about this matter?"

Ming Gong looked at his father. "It seemed the plan has been prepared for a long of time. They did it so swiftly and quick, but we can\'t make the appropriate response quick enough."

On his side, Xuan Pei was the one giving him the answer. Since he was selected to stay by Ming Gong side, Ming Gong finally understood how his brother could achieve that wonderful victory on the border. With someone as smart as Xuan Pei on his side, the win was already expected.

The emperor agreed. Since when did his foresight turn really bad? The matter happened right before his eyes, but he couldn\'t predict when it happened at all.

"Let\'s return for today. Ming Gong, you take care of those officials."

Ming Gong face darkened because he knew that the officials didn\'t like him. Seeing the people looking at him with derision, he felt that this was going to be hard. In the end, it was Xuan Pei who took care of the matter swiftly without the two knowing that he had planted the seed of rift among the officials.

With their current unreliable crown prince, it was easy for him to create the dispute among the officials to not follow after Ming Gong. This prince was the perfect example of a member of Imperial Family but has a stupid attitude.

After exiting the hall, the emperor sighed.

"Let\'s rest for a while, Your Majesty," the empress said with a soothing tone.

The emperor nodded. "Come accompany me."

"Yes."
