There were already demonic beasts in the Imperial Capital. Although they did not harm people, there were indeed demonic beasts that entered the city. Moreover, they swaggered around and occupied the places of mortals. They actually lived like mortals. They were like tyrants, taking whatever they ate and using and leaving with it.
Mortals didn't dare to report to the government. Everyone knew that it was useless to report to the government. They could only endure their fear and let the demon beasts loot.
They didn't have any other requests except that the demonic beasts didn't hurt them.
Zhao Xiang only learned of this today. Although there were not many demon beasts in the city, if it continued, the capital would be occupied by demon beasts.
She told Zhao Rao about it, "Your Majesty, General Song is right. Now there are demon beasts running amok outside."
"So, you also want to persuade me not to attack the Ning Kingdom, right?" Zhao Rao asked coldly.
Zhao Xiang nodded, "Yes, Your Majesty, please take back your decree. Don't attack the Ning Kingdom at this time. The troops of our Qi Kingdom should be kept to protect the people …"
"Protect the people?" Zhao Rao's sharp voice interrupted Zhao Xiang's words, "Don't you want to avenge Cheng Zheng? It's impossible for me to let Lu Yaoyao go like this! "
"It's not that I don't want to take revenge. It's never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. If the Qi Kingdom is gone, it's even more impossible to take revenge." Zhao Xiang said. She knew Zhao Rao's pain in the past two years. She didn't think that Zhao Rao loved Cheng Zheng so deeply before, but now she knew that Zhao Rao's love for Cheng Zheng was engraved in her bones.
Zhao Rao cried, "I can't wait for ten years. Now is the chance for revenge!"
"Now is not the time for revenge." Zhao Xiang replied harshly, "Can you wake up? Cheng Zheng is dead. He can't come back. He fought for the Qi Kingdom for you. You don't protect it for him, but only think about revenge. Do you think it's meaningful? Do you think you can really kill Lu Yaoyao? You saw the scene that day. Lu Yaoyao is not someone we can deal with at all. "
Zhao Xiang's words poked at the sore spot in Zhao Rao's heart.
Yes, it was because she saw that Ye Zhen could disappear into thin air and enter and exit the palace unpredictably that she felt desperate. She knew that revenge was becoming more and more impossible, but she was unwilling. Unwilling to let Lu Yaoyao go like this, unwilling to let Cheng Zheng be killed like this.
So what if he was unwilling? She didn't want to hurt the two children, but this was the only way to make Lu Yaoyao feel the pain.
"If we can't kill Lu Yaoyao, then we'll kill her child," Zhao Rao said in a low voice.
"Emperor!" Zhao Xiang emphasized, "At this time, how can you still be so stubborn? When His Highness was taken away by the demon beast, didn't you feel afraid? Think about the common people outside. They live in the abyss of suffering every day. Their fear of demonic beasts is much greater than what we can imagine. You are the emperor of the Kingdom of Qi. You must protect them. "
Zhao Rao covered her face with her hands. She didn't want to be an emperor, she didn't want to protect anyone. She just wanted Cheng Zheng to come back and be by her side.
"Go down," Zhao Rao said. She didn't want to hear anything.
"Emperor!" Zhao Xiang looked at her. Could it be that after saying so much, it still can't dispel Zhao Rao's desire for revenge?
The Qi Kingdom didn't have enough troops to deal with the Ning Kingdom and the Jin Kingdom. The Jin Kingdom couldn't just ignore the Ning Kingdom.
Zhao Rao no longer cared about Zhao Xiang. She turned and left the hall.
She aimlessly walked around the palace. Every corner seemed to have Cheng Zheng's memories. In fact, she knew that if Cheng Zheng didn't put Zhao Ning under house arrest and threaten Mo Rongyi, Lu Yaoyao wouldn't have killed her.
But Cheng Zheng did it for her.
"Mother." A young voice called out.
Zhao Rao looked up and saw her son running towards her. Her expression changed as she looked up at the sky. She angrily shouted at the servants behind the little prince, "Who told you to bring the little prince out?"
"Emperor, His Highness is looking for you." The servants hurriedly knelt down and said, "We tried to stop His Highness, but His Highness … … kept crying … …"
The little prince's eyes were red, "Mother, I don't want to stay inside. I want to come out."
Zhao Rao hugged her son tightly in her arms as she walked towards the palace. She was afraid that he would be seen by the demon beast again, "Be good and listen to mother. Don't go outside."
"Mother, it won't happen." The little prince said, "Big brother said it won't happen."
"What big brother?" Zhao Rao was stunned.
"The big golden bird turned into big brother." The little prince waved his hand. The dream of that day was so vivid that he couldn't forget it until now.
Zhao Rao was surprised, "You saw the big golden bird turn into a human?"
The little prince nodded, "Big brother is so powerful."
"You … …" Zhao Rao took a deep breath. She remembered the boy beside Ye Zhen. Her son was talking about that boy.
How could that boy be a big golden bird?
Zhao Rao sneered. What's impossible! Lu Yaoyao herself could disappear into thin air. What's so strange about her keeping a demon beast around her?
If the whole world knew that Lu Yaoyao had a demon beast with her, what would happen?
"Take the prince back. Don't let him go out again." Zhao Rao didn't know what to think, but her eyes were filled with excitement.
"Mother, I want to go out, I want to go out." The little prince cried and made a fuss.
Zhao Rao comforted him, "Be good, be obedient."
She stood up and walked out. Originally, she wanted Zhao Xiang to see her, but after thinking about it, she didn't do so in the end. Instead, she called the shadow guard Cheng Zheng left for her.
"Spread the news that Lu Yaoyao keeps a demon beast around her. The demon beasts in this place … … were all attracted by her. She is a witch who brings disaster to the world." Zhao Biandu said as he walked, thinking about how to ruin Ye Zhen's reputation.
She couldn't kill Lu Yaoyao, so let the people of the world avenge her.
"Your Majesty, this … I'm afraid no one will believe it." The shadow guard said in surprise. How could those terrible demon beasts be attracted by Lu Yaoyao? Who would believe this?
Zhao Kuang snorted coldly. "The more you say, the more you'll believe them. Lu Yaoyao has been missing for four years. Who knows where she went? Who knows how she came back alive? You can make up whatever story you want. In short, make her the target of everyone!"
The appearance of this demon beast was inexplicable, just like Lu Yaoyao suddenly became a martial artist. Even Cheng Zheng was killed by her and disappeared into thin air. Zhao Rao didn't make it up. Maybe it was the truth.
The time has come for Lu Yaoyao to be hated by others.
"Don't let the second princess and Song Hongao know about this." Zhao Rao whispered, "This is the only chance to avenge Cheng Zheng."
The shadow guards were trained by Cheng Zheng. When they heard that they could avenge Cheng Zheng, all their expressions became serious. "Yes, Your Majesty."
