The cold light of the dagger flashed, and it was about to hit Xiang Kunlun's neck.
Xiang Kunlun was shocked, and at this critical moment, he suddenly opened his eyes.
"Who are you?"
"go to hell!"
Xiang Kunlun rolled sideways to avoid the fatal blow, and then used his legs to kick the killer directly to the door.
"Protect the Emperor!"
In an instant, there was a fire outside the room.
"Your Majesty! The general's rescue came too late, please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
At this moment, the assassin who came to assassinate him had already been tied up and pinned to the ground.
He probably knew that there was no chance of his survival, so he kept his head down and remained silent.
After such a long period of experience, Xiang Kunlun has finally come through the bloody storm.
At this moment, he had already regained his composure.
However, the men standing next to him were all gnashing their teeth and looking ferocious.
It was as if it was not the emperor who the killer wanted to commit suicide, but themselves.
"Tell me!" The man grabbed the assassin's hair fiercely, "Are you a member of the Rebel Alliance? Did they send you here?"
His face was gloomy and uncertain, and he stared at the killer fiercely, as if he wanted to eat him alive.
No matter what the assassin did, he just didn't speak. He just gave it to everyone and didn't know anything about it.
The subordinate was furious: "You won't tell me, right? I have plenty of means to make you speak!"
He waved his left hand, wanting his men to take him down and torture him.
Xiang Kunlun coughed lightly and stopped his movements.
There was no need for an interrogation and there was nothing to say.
You don't need to guess to know that they must be people sent by the Resistance Alliance.
He looked calm and looked into the assassin's eyes.
"There is a saying that calls for leniency for those who confess, and severity for those who resist. If you tell me, I may not necessarily let you go, but I will definitely despise you."
"If you didn't say it, I would respect you as a man."
There was a moment of hesitation on the assassin's face, which passed quickly, but was still captured by Xiang Kunlun.
Of course he also wanted to live, but under such circumstances, he couldn't help himself.
Xiang Kunlun didn't say anything, leaving him a few seconds to think. Sure enough, cold sweat slowly broke out from the assassin's forehead.
He couldn't bear it anymore.
"Yes, it is indeed the Resistance Alliance who sent me here. My goal is to assassinate you."
As soon as he said the word "assassination", the people next to him were so angry that they wanted to pull out a knife and chop off his head.
However, Xiang Kunlun did not give such an order, so they could only endure it.
Xiang Kunlun nodded.
Under such circumstances, it cannot be said that it is wrong to protect oneself wisely.
"Put him down. Put him in prison."
The men under his command looked at each other and saw doubtful expressions on each other's faces.
What else is there to say about this kind of assassin? Besides, he has already admitted it, so just kill him and be done with it.
Why does the emperor lock people up instead of killing them
Xiang Kunlun probably noticed their doubts and said calmly: "Killing him is just a temporary pleasure. The real mastermind behind the scenes is the Resistance Alliance."
"Destroy the entire alliance, and I believe there will be no more assassins in the future."
This is what everyone is waiting for.
But they were far apart, so Fei Ge sent a message to Zhuge Liang.
Zhuge Liang and others were originally planning to attack the alliance, but they had not yet determined a specific battle plan.
After receiving the letter from Fei Ge, everyone was furious.
No matter what the battle plan is, no matter what the plan is, just go to war.
Fortunately, Zhuge Liang has not lost all his mind.
He raised his arms and shouted: "Piece the alliance and avenge the emperor!"
After giving the order, Zhuge Liang led Dian Wei and others to attack the resistance alliance overnight.
The people who resisted the alliance were still dreaming about their spring and autumn dreams, imagining that the assassin had succeeded. At this moment, Xiang Kunlun's head might have been separated from his body.
Before he could finish, a man stumbled in.
The others were shocked when they saw an arrow stuck deeply in this man's shoulder.
"How is this going?"
"Oh no, the assassination failed! Zhuge Liang and his men are about to attack!"
"What? How is this possible?"
They didn't believe it yet, but when they listened carefully, they seemed to really hear the sound of horse hooves and the shouts of a group of people.
Everyone was in a panic.
what to do? what to do
Everyone looked at the two leaders eagerly, expecting them to make up their minds.
The two people were running around anxiously, their minds were in a state of confusion, and they couldn't think of anything else to do.
They took deep breaths several times before finally calming down a little.
The two men murmured and discussed for a minute.
"With our small number of people, we definitely can't defeat them. How about we run away? If we don't run, it will be too late."
"Definitely not. These people are watching here. How could they let us go?"
"Then what should I do? I can't run, I can't fight, I can't fight."
The two people looked at each other and thought of one word at the same time - surrender.
The two cleared their throats and stated their plans.
Although many people in the alliance are scared out of their wits, there are also some more radical people.
As soon as they heard that they were going to surrender, they immediately opposed it.
"A grown man would rather die standing than live on his knees. How can he surrender? We will never surrender."
The two leaders were almost angered to death by them, but in desperation, they started to behave miserably again.
He said that he has an 80-year-old mother and a three-year-old son, so they cannot die.
A bit of deception really deceived these radical people.
Finally, everyone reached a consensus and decided to go out and beg for mercy.
In order to show their sincerity, the two leaders went to greet him personally. The two cried bitterly in front of Zhuge Liang.
Zhang Fei and Guan Yu looked at each other.
"Second brother, do you think these two people look familiar when they cry?"
Guan Yu knew who he was talking about and nodded leisurely.
Zhuge Liang also lamented, why are there so many people in the world who can act
He remembered that Xiang Kunlun once taught him a word, which in modern terms is called drama queen.
In his opinion, the two people in front of him now are two drama queens.
He kept shaking his feather fan, said nothing, and had no unnecessary expression.
The two leaders wiped away tears while quietly observing.
Seeing Zhuge Liang like this, I felt even more unsure.
As time passed by, Zhuge Liang finally lost his patience.
He asked coldly: "Are you done crying?"
When the two leaders heard this, they suddenly felt bad.
Before they could say a few more embarrassing words, Zhuge Liang raised his left hand: "Attack!"
Those who resisted the alliance were frightened and fled in all directions.
