The Wood Elemental Divine Palace was luxurious and majestic. It was a sacred place that countless people would break their heads to enter.
But now, this sacred place was shrouded in a sinister aura. Countless officials had voluntarily handed in their resignations, causing Mu Daiyu to be extremely angry!
"Prime Minister, you have a high position and great benefits. Why do you want to leave me?" Mu Daiyu glared at an old man with a gloomy expression, hoping that he would realize his mistake and mend his ways.
"Your Majesty, this old subject is already old, and my eyesight is blurry. I really can no longer serve the Empire. Please, Your Majesty, let me return to my fields!" As the old man pleaded, his voice filled with boundless sorrow, as if he were truly pitiful and pitiful.
"Is that so? Then the Minister of Justice, the Minister of Rites … You are all still young. Why do you want to resign? "Mu Daiyu couldn't help but glare coldly at the other officials.
"Your Majesty, please forgive us. It's not that we don't want to serve the empire, but something happened at home. Our bodies and minds have been greatly affected. We are in a daze all day and don't know what's going on. We really need to go home and recuperate!" The officials helplessly pleaded.
"Oh? What happened to all of you? "Mu Daiyu pursued the matter.
"Your Majesty, my favorite concubine is dead!"
"Your Majesty, my wife has gone crazy!"
"Your Majesty, my father has lost his mind …" Countless officials had different reasons, but their meaning was the same. They were mentally and physically exhausted and couldn't hold on any longer.
"Hmph, what about you? I have hundreds of officials and generals in the Wood Elemental Divine Kingdom. Could it be that all of you are suffering from an incurable disease? "Mu Daiyu swept her gaze and glared at the officials!
"Your Majesty, our old illness has resurfaced. We are about to die …" Countless officials had countless reasons. Their only goal was to resign.
"Enough!" Faced with the endless pleas of the officials, Mu Daiyu finally lost her temper. She didn't hold back and directly reprimanded them, "Why speak so much nonsense? Why don't you just say that you are afraid of the Dragonblood Empire's prestige, so you want to resign? "
"Your Majesty, we are willing to pledge our lives to the Scandinavian Empire, but we are both mentally and physically exhausted. There is nothing we can do …" Their words sounded nice, but their actions were chilling!
"Bullshit! You bunch of hypocritical bastards! Since you're heartless, don't blame me for being heartless!" Mu Daiyu suddenly shouted coldly, "Didn't you want to leave? Alright, I won't stop you. But before you leave, you have to settle your accounts before you leave! "
"Your Majesty, when we were on the throne, we were conscientious and honest …" The officials immediately began to complain.
"Bullshit, Prime Minister, I'm afraid you're not seeing things because of old age, but because you've been doing too much sex recently, right? Your concubine is very beautiful. You must have spent a lot of effort and money to snatch her away, right? "Mu Daiyu scowled at him coldly, instantly silencing the Prime Minister.
"Your Majesty, your old servant is guilty!" The old man was so frightened that he dropped to his knees, trembling and his face drained of color.
"Ministers, you've been quite greedy recently. Look at these accounts, are they all correct?" Mu Daiyu angrily threw out another stack of accounts. The ministers who saw this immediately fell to their knees, dumbfounded, unable to say a word.
"And all of you, everything about you is clearly recorded here. You've been corrupt, bent the law, treated human lives like grass, used power for profit, and brought chaos to the world. Do you really think I don't know?" Mu Daiyu repeatedly threw out a bunch of crimes, forcing the officials and generals to kneel on the ground, crying and begging for mercy.
Mu Daiyu seemed to be muddle-headed, but in fact, she was very clear about the private affairs of the ministers. Normally, she wouldn't talk about them, but they were all corrupt. She really couldn't control them!
"Sigh …" Looking at the ministers in the court, Mu Daiyu finally sighed helplessly and said, "It has only been a few months since I, the Divine Kingdom of Wood, was founded. Look, what kind of state have you all brought my kingdom to?"
"Your Majesty, we know our wrongs. Please spare our lives!" The officials knelt and begged, their faces full of remorse.
"It's too late!" Mu Daiyu coldly glared at them. "Originally, I couldn't make up my mind to cleanse the empire with blood. But you ungrateful things are truly unworthy of my nurturing. If I don't kill you today, I won't be able to appease the anger of the people and bring peace to the world!"
"Your Majesty, please don't. We won't resign. Please spare our lives!" The group of officials begged again and again.
"What are you afraid of? In any case, my empire will soon be gone. You're just one step ahead. What's there to be afraid of? " Mu Daiyu smiled bleakly, revealing the fear in her heart. "Actually, it's not just you who are afraid of the Dragonblood Empire. I'm also afraid. I'm afraid that Chen Jiu will bring an army to kill me. But as the emperor, where can I escape to?"
"Your Majesty …" The officials looked at Mu Daiyu's face full of fear and trepidation. For a moment, they all felt pity for her.
"I won't hide it from you. The Wood Elemental Academy has already abandoned me. Although I have the Wood Elemental Divine Body, I'm just a tool for them to use. Now that I've offended Chen Jiu, they don't dare to fight him to the death. That's why they sent me out to bear all of this!" Mu Daiyu said, her face full of sorrow.
"Your Majesty, we're willing to live and die with you!" The officials immediately expressed their loyalty.
"That's right. Live and die together. But you have to go first. I don't want the people of the empire to think that I've been an incapable ruler from start to finish!" Mu Daiyu crazily shouted. "Men, send the officials to the execution grounds. Read out their crimes and execute them all. This is to appease the people!"
"Yes, sir!" The soldiers dragged the officials, who were showing their ugliness, away.
Now, the eyes of all the countries were gathered. They were all waiting to see the reaction of the Wood Elemental Divine Nation. Mu Daiyu's act of killing the officials caused everyone to sigh.
Some people said that he had lost his mind, but others said that he was a brave man who cut his wrist. He had the determination to fight to the death with Chen Jiu. But at the same time, the emperors of the various countries were also on alert. They were stepping up the punishment of the corrupt officials.
The people of the Wood Elemental Divine Nation naturally cheered. They felt very happy that the corrupt officials were killed. However, they didn't thank Mu Daiyu. Instead, they transferred their endless gratitude to Chen Jiu.
The eyes of the crowd were bright. Seeing everyone's reaction, Mu Daiyu's face was full of a bleak smile. She sat alone in the Divine Palace like a sad and desolate old woman. She couldn't raise the slightest bit of spirit.
"Chen Jiu, why aren't you here yet? How long are you going to torture me? "Mu Daiyu muttered to herself. She only wanted to die.
"Mu Daiyu, were you waiting for me?" A soft greeting sounded like an old friend. Chen Jiu suddenly appeared.
