Oh my, the system was really considerate. It handed him a pillow right after he dozed off.
Zhuge Liang, you didn't go out to be an official for Liu Biao, but you came up with a plan for Liu Qi, wanting to kill me.
Then don't blame me for messing with you.
"Cao Chun, listen up!"
"Gather the white-robed army and follow me to the Water Mirror Academy.”
Cao Shuo ordered sternly.
"I have received your orders."
Cao Chun first issued the military order and then asked in confusion,""Sikong, why are we going to the Shui Jing Academy?”
Cao Shuo laughed coldly,"Zhuge is my enemy. I will teach him an unforgettable lesson!"”
Two days later.
Cao Shuo led eighteen cavalrymen of Yan Yun and three hundred white-robed soldiers, leaving Xinye at night and heading southwest to Lumen.
…
At the foot of Lumen Mountain, Shui Jing Academy.
At this moment, there were already carriages and water carriages, and the sound of people was noisy.
Kuai, Huang, Pang, Cai, and the other influential figures of the Jing State families were all present to attend the engagement banquet between Shui Jing's disciple and the Huang family's daughter.
An exquisite carriage stopped in front of the door. Pang Degong, the head of the Pang family, got out of the carriage with the help of his servants.
"Brother De Gong graced us with your presence.”
Sima Hui came forward with a smile.
Pang De Gong smiled and said,"This is a joyous day for the daughter of Chengyan and the disciple of Brother Decao. How can I not come to congratulate you?"”
What he meant was that he had come to this engagement banquet because of Huang Chengyan and Sima Hui.
"Brother De Gong, please come in."
Sima Hui hurriedly brought Pang De Gong inside.
"Brother Decao, you've been worrying so much for your disciple.”
Pang De glanced at the guests in the mansion and smiled meaningfully.
Zhuge Liang had taken refuge here from Xuzhou. Although he was talented, he was not famous.
Sima Hui had come out to hold this engagement banquet and invited Jing Zhou's influential figures to congratulate him. Naturally, it was to build up momentum for his students and to build connections.
"Kong Ming is a talented person. As elders, we should take care of such a young hero.”
Sima Hui sighed.
"Brother Decao's disciple is indeed talented. My nephew Pang Tong also holds him in high esteem.”
Pang Degong nodded in approval and looked around."Where's Kong Ming?"
"Today is the day of Zhuge Xuan's death," Sima Hui quickly said."He'll come back later after paying his respects."”
"He's a filial child. Not bad, not bad.”
Pang De praised again.
The two of them chatted and laughed as they entered the hall.
In a room in the Inner Hall of the Academy.
A beautiful girl in yellow was touching up her makeup in front of the mirror.
"Yueying, quite a number of guests have arrived. It's about time for you to go and welcome them. Your Uncle Pang has also come to congratulate you today.”
Huang Chengcheng urged with a smile.
"Once this engagement banquet is held, my daughter's marriage cannot be changed.”
"Father, have you really decided to let your daughter marry Zhuge Kongming?”
Huang Yueying sighed softly.
"Although this Zhuge Liang's family has fallen, he is talented and ambitious. He is truly one of the most outstanding talents among the younger generation in Jing Xiang.”
"Moreover, Sima Decao personally came to propose marriage. With his reputation, how could I not give him face?”
Huang Chengyan explained while pushing his thin beard.
"I heard that Zhuge Liang wanted to cling to our Huang family, so he invited Mister Shui Jing to propose marriage.”
"Perhaps it's true that he's talented, but I don't think it's true that he's ambitious.”
Huang Yueying seemed to have some complaints about this marriage.
"It's human nature to climb up to the top.”
"The engagement banquet has already been held, and the guests have all arrived. Yueying, you don't have to think too much about it.”
Huang Yueying consoled.
What was done was done. Huang Yueying could only sigh. After touching up her makeup, she went out to call the guests.
The Shui Jing Academy was bustling with activity.
These Jing State celebrities were unaware that a group of people was rushing towards the Academy.
Cao Shuo rode on his Red Charcoal Dragon Stallion and held the Heavenly Dragon Halberd in his hand. He appeared in front of the Academy like lightning.
In front of the door.
Zhuge Liang's brother-in-law, Kuai Qi, and classmate, Cui Zhouping, were welcoming the guests who had come to congratulate them.
Seeing that there were soldiers and horses coming, the two of them didn't alarm them. They thought that it was a general from Jing State who had brought his guards to congratulate them.
"Since you're here to participate in the engagement banquet, why don't you remove your weapons and come in for a drink?”
Kuai Qi stepped forward and stopped Cao Shuo.
"Who are you? State your name." Cao Shuo asked coldly.”
"I am Kuai Qi. Kuai Biejia is my uncle and Zhuge Kongming is my brother-in-law.”
Kuai Qi cupped his hands again.”
"Cao Shuo!"
Cao Shuo smiled coldly and reported his name.
Kuai Qi's expression changed as he retreated half a step.
Cui Zhouping and the surrounding guests were all shocked.
"You…you are that Cao Shuo?"
"Why did you come to the Water Mirror Academy?”
Kuai Qi tried his best to suppress his shock as he asked in a trembling voice.
"Your brother-in-law is my enemy, so I'm naturally here to teach him a lesson!”
Killing intent gathered in Cao Shuo's eyes as he thrust out the Heavenly Dragon Halberd.
Puff!
Kuai Qi's heart was pierced by the halberd, and he fell to the ground with a miserable cry.
"Brother Kuai!"
Cui Zhouping cried out in alarm. He supported Kuai Qi's corpse and shouted at Cao Shuo,"
"The Kuai Family is a prominent family in Jing State. Cao Shuo, how dare you…"
The Heavenly Dragon Halberd slashed again.
Cui Zhouping's head fell to the ground.
The Jing State celebrities in front of the gate were all terrified. They looked at Cao Shuo, who was like a god of death, and did not dare to breathe loudly.
"This Cao Shuo actually killed Kuai and Cui for no reason!”
"He is indeed as cruel as the rumors say!”
"This is the Shui Jing Academy. What is he trying to do?”
All the guests whispered in surprise.
Cao Shuo put away his Blood Halberd and glared at everyone.
With just one look, everyone was so scared that their scalps went numb. They scattered and ran away.
"Anyone who dares to block my path, kill!"
Cao Shuo dragged the Blood Halberd and rode his horse into the Shui Jing Academy.
