Chapter 151 – Brace Yourselves

August 31st, 182 A . D .

5 A . M .

Little Dong Bai and Hua s.h.i.+ opened the door and skipped to the bath in a fresh mood, leaving exhausted Tong sleeping on the bed .

Since a few days ago that Dong Bai formed the pact with Tong, both perverted women drained his seeds like they were craving it for millennia . Furthermore, Dong Bai's transformed body was Tong's ideal type of woman, he could never resist her temptation and was sucked dry every time .

He had to drag his shaking legs to the morning a.s.sembly in the morning and fell to sleep in the afternoon to regain his strength .

…

Today as well, after he took the bath, Tong slowly walked with trembling legs like a 100-year-old man to the government hall .

Before he could reach the government hall, Zhang Jiao sent a message to the clan chat .

"Tong, there's an emissary from the Emperor with soldiers in the main hall . They have come with the edict . "

Surprised, Tong texted back . "Has he read the edict, yet?"

Zhang Jiao replied . "No, but his att.i.tude toward us is not very good . He came with 10 bodyguards and they refused to disarm themselves . They threatened to kill anyone that dares to stop them . Oh, he's also the same eunuch that used to visit us at our home last year . The guy that asked for our bribe . . . "

Tong stopped playing an old man and used his regen skill to cure his muscle pain . He dashed toward the government hall while he checked his weapon condition in his inventory .

"Two pistols, 236 bullets . I'm ok . "

Initially, he had more bullets . However, Tong gave a gun and a few clips to Li Feihong as his self-protection weapon just in case of emergency .

He glanced at another icon in his inventory with sad eyes . The broken rifle stayed in his inventory for months after the incident in Jinyang .

During the incident, Lu Bu hammered him hard on his back and stomped on his rifle while he was lying p.r.o.ne on the rooftop of Jinyang government building . After the roof collapsed, the rifle was buried under the wreckages . When it was recovered, several parts of the rifle was no longer in a working condition .

'That brute . A single stomp can even bend the metal barrel . I wouldn't have cared if he were to break other parts . Why the barrel!?'

The M16 barrel was bent . In this era, there was neither technology nor technique that could repair or craft a new barrel with smoothbore and the accurate size of the muzzle . Once it broke, it became a useless metal junk .

'Whatever the case, the emissary of Liu Ping shouldn't come here for a peace talk . '

"Tong, don't rush in just yet . Wait for us . "

"We're going too . "

Dong Bai and Hua s.h.i.+ also detected the abnormally . It was too weird for Liu Ping to send a diplomat to Julu .

Despite being pregnant, Hua s.h.i.+ took her signature compound bow with her . Dong Bai also transformed into her adult form and equipped with leather armor and a spear . They were ready for combat .

Tong wanted to stop Hua s.h.i.+ from coming along, but the vibe coming from the emissary was bad as his eyebrows kept twitching non-stop .

Dong Bai had already told everyone about Liu Ping being the "Ping" who was Tong's nemesis in his previous life . From the investigation of the Heaven, Ping knew about Tong's ident.i.ty which posted a threat to his city and his family . With such information, Tong had no reason to maintain a façade with Liu Ping's men .

. . .

Five minutes later, Tong and his wives arrived at the main hall . More than half of the officials were already inside along with Zhang Jiao . Normally, they usually chatted or exchanged their pleasantries every time they met, yet their mood was different today .

"Hurry and fetch me Zhang Tong and his family . We don't have all day . "

On the contrary of Zhang Jiao and his subordinates, the eunuch emissary puffed his chest and raised his chin up high . His arrogant eyes looked down on everyone . He did not bow or show respect to the people inside the hall .

"Don't you have good women here? I've heard you've rescued many fine women from Ganling . We want to see them . "

"Bring us food, too . We've come a long way, so we're hungry . "

"We're short on supplies . Give us gold, too . "

His bodyguards were the same . They ordered the officials in the hall and shamelessly asked for bribes, food, women, and gold .

Tong entered the hall with a stride . He did not bother showing respect to the eunuch and his guards either .

As soon as he entered the hall, he glared at the eunuch and spoke with a clear intimidating voice .

"State your business, or leave . We're busy working here, so we don't have the times to entertain Liu Ping's d.i.c.kless dogs . "

The rare overbearing att.i.tude from Tong shocked everyone, including Zhang Jiao . It was his first time seeing this cunning son showing a reckless behavior with the officials from the Capital .

The government guards of Zhang Jiao drew their swords after they heard Tong's remark . Though it was unusual for Tong to pick a fight with someone, he was still their young master and their deputy governor .

Meanwhile, the 10 bodyguards of the diplomat eunuch were furious by Tong's manner .

"How dare you!"

"Kneel!"

"You do know who you're messing with!"

"We're Emperor's direct subordinates! Kneel!"

The eunuch's bodyguards roared back at Tong . Because of their status of the Emperor's messenger, they pa.s.sed through all check-points with their weapons . They drew their swords and pointed at Tong to intimidate him .

The eunuch also peered at Tong and snorted . He could tell from the reaction of the officials and Zhang Jiao, and this young man was Zhang Tong, the young master of Julu City .

The edict in his hands was also the warrant for Zhang Jiao and Tong's arrest and their charges of treason, corruption, and illegally possessed private armies . Liu Ping also wrote that the eunuch would be instated as the new governor of the city instead of Zhang Jiao as well .

As a result, the eunuch thought that he had to demonstrate his authority here and read the edict to everyone once they were all presented .

"Are you Zhang Tong?" The eunuch asked .

"Yeah, what of it, sissy?"

"Bold! Men, kill that brat!"

The angered eunuch was also infuriated by Tong's att.i.tude . He thought that aside from the Emperor or the bigwigs in the Capital, he was the King if he were to stroll in all other cities .

"Oh, hey . Those two girls on the back are fine!"

"Kill the brat, and we'll share the girls . "

The bodyguards smirked at Hua s.h.i.+ and Dong Bai . They disregarded Tong and thought that he was nothing but a spoiled young master .

Without waiting for the bodyguards to approach, Dong Bai rushed in first and her spear pierced a bodyguard's throat with the precise accuracy . She pulled back her spear and stabbed another one .

Hua s.h.i.+ also fired her arrows . Five light arrows flew overhead of Tong and hit five bodyguards each, however, they had not died yet .

"How dare you! Do you even know what you're doing!? We are carrying the edict of the Emperor! Harming the messenger of the Emperor is a crime!"

Tong ignored the shouting visitors . He charged toward the eunuch and bypa.s.sed all the bodyguards with his footwork . With the increase of his speed by his [Lessor Demonic Body] buff, his movement became much faster than he was last year .

"You…"

In a few seconds, Tong stopped in front of the eunuch and slashed down his sword from the overhead . His sword cut through the eunuch's skull like b.u.t.ter and stopped at the chest as Tong lacked the power to cut through him from the top of his head to the end of his lower torso .

The eunuch's head splitted open and revealed his brains and the inner contents within his head .

Tong kicked him away and pulled his sword back . He swung it sideway to get rid of the blood on his sword . He leaped back to kill off the other visitors .

The bodyguards were shocked by the sudden development . Their movements stopped due to the shock and fear .

Dong Bai and Tong did not let this chance slip by, both of them stabbed and slashed at the guards, killing them one at a time with leisure . Hua s.h.i.+ stopped firing her bow midway and stepped back behind the other officials as she needed to vomit . Her pregnancy got in the way of her fight .

Zhang Jiao's government hall guards came to their senses . They rushed in to help Tong subdue the eunuch's followers . Before they could kill any of the bodyguards, Tong and Dong Bai already finished off all the visitors .

Zhang Jiao and Sima Fang looked at the chaotic scene from the start to finish in solemn . They wanted Tong's explanation .

As if Tong could read their mind, he picked up the golden scroll from the dead eunuch body and read it out loud .

"An order from Emperor Ping, the governor of Julu Commandery, Zhang Jiao has been cooperating with the Xiangnu tribe barbarians of the north to harm the order of the Han Imperial Court . From our investigation, Julu City governor's son, Zhang Tong, has attempted to a.s.sa.s.sinate Ding Yuan, the governor of Jinyang Commandery . Such action and conspiracy cannot be forgiven . All stripes and ranks they are holding are revoked . All of their properties are to be confiscated . Both Zhang Jiao, Zhang Tong and their entire 9 generations must be arrested or executed immediately . "

Done with the reading, Tong tossed the golden scroll to Zhang Jiao, who was astonished and shocked by the content of the edict .

The other officials in the room were furious by the injustice edict as well . They knew well about the incident in Jinyang that it was Dong Zhuo's men who instigated the conflict and attempted to kill Ding Yuan . None of them could have foreseen that the Emperor decided to frame Zhang Jiao and his family this way .

"This is tyranny!"

"Absurd!"

"How can the Imperial Court fall this low!?"

Sima Fang was in a daze, flabbergasted by the turn of events . He heaved out a sigh of relief that he made the right decision of not serving the new Emperor .

"Young master Zhang, how did you know?" Sima Fang could not help but ask .

Tong gave Sima Fang an awkward smile . "Liu Ping and I … have a history together . "
