After rebirth, I became a national teacher

Unexpectedly, when Yan Rong saw the sharp blade on Pei Xuan's neck, his expression did not even change.

"What do you mean by God's own son? We have never heard of it before!"

Pei Xuan, who suddenly became a hostage, was also confused.

Lord Du'e is an outsider who possesses all kinds of magical powers. How could he have a child, and him?

How come he doesn’t know that the Goddess of Du’e is his biological mother?

Emperor Yong'an never expected that Yan Rong, the leader of the rebel faction, would not know Pei Xuan's identity.

No, that's not right!

The fact that Yan Rong dared to lead the rebellion at this time was enough to prove that he had never severed his ties with the Yan family of Nandu.

All the loyalty I showed to him before must have been lies.

In this case, with Yan Rong, the Chief Justice of the Dali Temple's keen insight, how could he not have guessed Pei Xuan's identity?

"Humph! Yan Rong, do you think that just because you pretend not to care about me, you'll be stupid enough to release Pei Xuan as a hostage?"

“I tell you, if I cannot achieve what I want after coming to this point today, it will be the same as death. Before I die, I will definitely drag Pei Xuan to be buried with me!”

"If Pei Xuan dies, no matter how great your contribution is, you will still be punished by the evil demon Du'e!"

As he said this, he had someone tighten the knife on Pei Xuan's neck.

"what!"

Pei Xuan suddenly screamed in pain, and blood immediately flowed out, staining the collar around his neck red.

"and many more!"

Yan Rong shouted quickly.

"Your Majesty, I was indeed disrespectful just now. If you have any requests, we can discuss it."

He had indeed already learned about the God's earthly identity from his nephew Yan Qingzhi in Nandu.

The Second Young Master Pei is indeed the only son of the God.

Although no one knows why the God kept the Second Master Pei in the capital, the blood relationship between the two cannot be severed.

If he caused the death of the second Master Pei in his eagerness to make a contribution, I am afraid that even if ten Emperors Yong'an were captured, it would be difficult to atone for his crime.

However, he said this at this time not because he wanted to compromise with Emperor Yong'an.

Emperor Yong'an could no longer hold back after being pushed by himself, and his true colors were revealed.

There was joy in my heart from having my plan come true, but more than that, I was filled with anger.

These running dogs!

Now he can't wait to please the evil demon Du'e!

"If you want Pei Xuan to escape safely, you must first disperse the mobs outside the imperial city and let my 10,000 elite imperial guards withdraw from the capital..."

Emperor Yong'an was about to continue negotiating terms when he suddenly felt a chill on his neck and someone grabbed his shoulders forcefully.

A sharp voice sounded in my ears:

"Release Second Master Pei, or I will kill Your Majesty!"

It turned out that everyone's attention was focused on Pei Xuan and Yan Rong's reactions.

Wang Zhong, who was standing not far from Emperor Yong'an, quietly took out the dagger hidden in his sleeve and approached Emperor Yong'an.

Emperor Yong'an tilted his head slightly in disbelief:

"Wang Zhong...you...you eunuch, I have treated you well, how dare you betray me!"

Wang Zhong laughed sarcastically:

"Your Majesty has also said that you treat me like a dog..."

"But I, your Majesty, want to be able to live a peaceful and healthy life after I leave you!"

Wang Zhong also came from a poor background. He was castrated at a young age and sent to the palace to make a living. It was naturally not easy for him to climb to his current position.

But not everyone clings to power all their lives.

He was already quite old, and after spending most of his life groveling and scheming in front of Emperor Yong'an and in this palace, he was already tired of it.

Eunuchs all have short lives, and he has made a lot of money.

I just want to spend the rest of my life leaving the palace, becoming a rich man, and living a few years of peace and stability.

You can hold your head up high and live as a human being, without having to worry about being scolded, beaten, or even having your head chopped off by the supreme being of the world if you say something wrong.

But he also knew that it was absolutely impossible.

He has accompanied Emperor Yong'an all the way and knows too many of Emperor Yong'an's secrets that he cannot let on.

Emperor Yong'an has always been suspicious. If he wants to leave Emperor Yong'an's side, only death can make the emperor feel at ease.

Now, Emperor Yong'an is on his last legs. Following such a monarch, he will only end up in exile and death.

Emperor Yong'an could not give it, but Yan Rong promised to give it, so he helped Yan Rong.

He knew that Lord Du'e was actually a very tolerant person, especially towards the people from poor backgrounds.

If he can accomplish great deeds to atone for his sins, what he asks for can be achieved.

Wang Zhong's threat made the remaining elite imperial guards somewhat shaken.

Emperor Yong'an shouted:

"Don't let him go! He doesn't dare to touch me!"

At this moment, something strange happened. A guard who quietly approached the man holding Pei Xuan hostage raised his hand and stabbed the man's right shoulder with a knife.

The man felt pain and immediately loosened his grip on Pei Xuan.

Another imperial guard soldier took the opportunity to pull Pei Xuan, who was still in extreme shock, out of the man's control in an instant.

Having lost their hostages, Emperor Yong'an's party immediately became lambs to be slaughtered and were quickly subdued by the men brought by Yan Rong.

Emperor Yong'an was completely unable to accept this shocking change.

Yan Rong's intention was very clear, they wanted to capture him alive.

How could he, the king of a country, endure such humiliation?

He thought to himself that dying for his country was more glorious than becoming a captured king.

But Wang Zhong's dagger was clearly at his neck, and when the time came, he couldn't make up his mind quickly to rush forward.

During this moment of hesitation, he was captured alive.

After getting the situation under control, Yan Rong walked over to Pei Xuan, who was being protected by two rebellious imperial guards, and said apologetically and respectfully:

"Please forgive me, Mr. Pei. I just wanted to buy time for Wang Zhong, but I didn't expect you to get hurt!"

"Someone, come and check on Mr. Pei's injuries!"

Pei Xuan, who was in extreme shock, finally came back to his senses.

Therefore, his lowly biological mother, who was always submissive in front of his stepmother and tried to please him in every way,

He is truly the Lord of Du'e, who is worshipped as a god by the powerful people in the capital!

It's still hard to believe though.

But Emperor Yong'an took him as a hostage.

The rebellious Dali Temple Minister Yan Rong and the chief eunuch Wang Zhong were both trying their best to rescue him.

Now, I speak to him even more respectfully using honorifics.

Thinking of this, he eagerly pulled Yan Rong and asked:

"Master Yan, please tell me how strong the Du'e Army is!"

Yan Rong was stunned for a moment, then realized that the other party had always been under the control of Emperor Yong'an, so it was normal that he didn't know the situation on the God's side.

So he said truthfully:

"The power of the God is boundless, and the Du'e Army is invincible. Now we have reached Shuntian Prefecture and will arrive in the capital soon!"

Pei Xuan was shocked at first.

The Du'e Army is so powerful that they have fought from the Southern Capital to the foot of the capital!

That vast territory is all the prosperous land of the Wei Dynasty.

With so many good places under their control, their strength is far greater than that of the Wei Dynasty, and it is only a matter of time before they eliminate other rebel forces.

The leader of the Du'e Army, the powerful Du'e God, is his mother.

Just looking at the fear and admiration that the powerful people in the capital had for her mother, it would only be a matter of a word for her to ascend the throne and become emperor in the future.

As his mother's only son...

Pei Xuan was overjoyed.

He actually possesses such an extraordinary identity!
