Long Cheng, Ting Xue and the rest were relieved. They even hoped that GongYimo would continue. She had angered Long Cheng Wuji. They wanted to see how GongYimo would leave Lou Ye alive!
Everyone felt the pressure, as well as the tension in the air!
At this moment, GongYimo closed her eyes and pointed to the blood-stained eagle statue. "Do you know why Lou Ye's founding king had an eagle as his symbol?"
Long Cheng Wuji was stunned. He did not know why she suddenly said this. GongYimo continued.
"Do you know why the founding king Meng Er Tian Han did not proclaim himself emperor after establishing his country?!"
As she spoke, her heavy gaze swept across the audience. Everyone became quiet again. Her gaze carried a trace of desire and inquiry.
The eagle was the founding king's favorite animal. There were eagle statues everywhere in Lou Ye, but no one knew the reason.
"The eagle was used as a symbol because the eagle would not be biased. Every child it gave birth to would be thrown off a cliff by their mother not long after they were born. Those who could fly would live, those who could not fly would die!
Lou Ye's environment was harsh. Survival of the fittest, so Meng Er Tian Han used the eagle as a symbol. He hoped that every citizen of Lou Ye would be as tenacious as a young eagle. Those who survived would be strong. He also hoped that the person who became the king of Lou Ye would be as fair as an eagle and would not be biased towards any of his children! "
GongYimo's words were like a thorn that pierced deeply into Long Cheng Wuji's heart. At this moment, his face was burning. He actually felt ashamed and unable to show his face.
He thought that he was fair, but he could not refute GongYimo's blatant rebuke.
GongYimo continued, "The reason why Meng Er Tian Han did not proclaim himself emperor was not because he could not, but because he wanted to warn the world that most of Lou Ye's citizens were good. However, there was still class and injustice. So he had been waiting for an eagle like overlord to solve this matter. He wanted to turn Lou Ye into a truly free and fair country. That would be the time to proclaim himself emperor!"
GongYimo pursed her lips and looked at Long Cheng Wuji. "I always thought that you would be that person, but you have disappointed me … Look at them."
GongYimo pointed at the corpses on the ground.
Actually, to a person in power, as long as there was a valid reason, a thousand people dying was not a big deal. However, the accumulation of blood was still very scary … Dark red. Many people's heads were covered with cloth. They did not even let out a scream when they died.
"Cheng Wuji, look at them."
GongYimo pointed at the remaining seven people. At this moment, they were firmly gathered together. Their eyes were full of reverence.
Not everyone had GongYimo's courage. No matter what environment they were born in, it was hard to overturn their beliefs. They were afraid of death, but they were even more afraid of the king's anger!
Long Cheng Wuji could not help but look at them. They were all injured. They were not old and were in a sorry state. Only a pair of eyes were looking at him nervously and sincerely. They all believed that he would give them an explanation.
GongYimo smiled. "Look at your citizens below the stage." She sighed, "Indeed, I was meddling in other people's business today. I offended the Lou Ye Royal Family's face, and I apologize.
However, I gave myself the face, so Long Cheng Wuji should apologize even more! She can live, but since she dared to do it, she should dare to bear the consequences!
It is a fact that she killed a thousand innocent people to silence them! If you think that she did not deserve to die, she should at least kneel down and apologize. It's only three kowtows. These people have kowtowed countless times at her feet when they were alive! "
Everyone was silent. In the end, she asked softly.
"It's not too much, right?"
She asked Long Cheng Wuji in a very, very soft voice.
At this moment, Long Cheng Wuji looked at her with a very complicated gaze, as if he did not know this girl.
She … originally did not need to get involved in this mess, but she did. Even if she was in Lou Ye's territory, she was still aggressive and did whatever she wanted to do.
Long Cheng Wuji's gaze fell on Long Cheng Wuji. It seemed that this sister of his had been destroyed by herself. Indeed, her plan was very good. However, it was a pity that she met GongYimo, who would not take a beating passively. She only had herself to blame.
"Ting Xue, kowtow."
At this moment, his muddled mind finally cleared up. Although he was angry at GongYimo's aggressiveness, he was also glad.
Preserving his life was the only thing he could do. However, was it really necessary to preserve this last fig leaf? No matter how simple his people were, they were not fools. Long Cheng's family was not without opponents. If this kind of weakness was left behind, it would become a knife for his enemies to kill him. Therefore, he could not be soft-hearted.
This was actually the reason why GongYimo dared to do this. If she hid it, it would be a hidden danger. There was no need to cause chaos because of Long Cheng Ting Xue. She believed that Long Cheng Wuji, who had calmed down, would understand.
As if sensing something, the two looked at each other. They both realized that they were thinking of the same thing. However, Long Cheng Wuji's eyes still contained anger, while GongYimo was still very calm.
Long Cheng Ting Xue was stunned. She did not speak for a long time.
She did not expect that because of GongYimo's words, her brother did not plan to protect her anymore! She could feel the angry eyes of the people below the stage.
Because of Long Cheng Wuji's words, they had completely believed what Buji said. As for her … a woman who killed people and wanted to play with people's hearts, she was afraid that from now on, she would no longer have any good reputation.
No …
She looked pleadingly at the old Lou Ye King, making a final struggle. The old Lou Ye King was angry and in a difficult position. He looked at Long Cheng Wuji and said sorrowfully.
"Wuji … she …" is your sister!
"If you don't kowtow, this king will no longer have a sister."
Long Cheng Wuji's words directly cut off all her paths of retreat. If she was not a princess, her ending would be very, very miserable!
Therefore, under Long Cheng Wuji's cold gaze, she finally kowtowed for the first time!
Her forehead was stained with the blood on the ground. In her heart, she had already torn GongYimo into pieces!
What a good plan! As long as she did not destroy it, she could wash away all the dirt on her body and become Lou Ye's most popular princess again. Then, she could get married grandly!
However, all of this was ruined by GongYimo! She was simply a jinx!
When she kowtowed, the people below were in an uproar. Their expressions were angry, but because Long Cheng Wuji was still there, they endured it. No wonder the little princess was so anxious to kill someone. Fortunately, this princess from Dai Yu State had ruined it. Otherwise, they would not have known that the little princess was such a person!
She was simply Lou Ye's disgrace!
If it wasn't for the fact that Longcheng Wuji was still here, those upright people would have shouted 'Longcheng Ting Xue, get out of Lou Ye'!
Under such humiliating gazes, Long Cheng Ting Xue kowtowed for the second time!
All of this was GongYimo's fault!
