"I was almost killed by the explosion just now!" GongYimo's voice trembled. "I'm the only one who knows about this thing! It's extremely powerful, and if it's used in a war, it will definitely cause great suffering! "
She straightened her body and looked at the crowd, her eyes filled with determination and sadness …
"Once it falls into the hands of the emperor, he will experience the pleasure of killing people in an instant. With all the emperors' thoughts of annexing the world, they will definitely start a war."
"It's fine if it's used to bomb others, but the composition of this thing is not complicated. What if someone else develops it and bombs them? What if it's used in the struggle for power among the princes? Think about its power. Whether it's mountains, rivers, or fertile fields, they will all turn into ruins in an instant.
Once the situation is irreversible, people will go crazy and not care about the consequences. When the time comes, several groups of people will kill each other and cause thousands of innocent people to lose their lives. The common people will become homeless and destitute. Then, I will be the sinner of history! "
As she spoke, she knelt on the ground. The sorrow in her eyes was moving. She seemed to have already seen the tragedy of blood flowing like a river. She held a sharp weapon in her hand, but her heart was only doing good deeds to benefit the people.
A woman who cared about the world so much was kneeling in front of them in a sorry state after escaping from death. It really made them feel ashamed.
Gong Che was definitely disappointed. As the Crown Prince, he definitely hoped that such a weapon could be used by his country. However, every word of GongYimo's words struck his heart. He couldn't bear to see the country destroyed, and he didn't want to do anything against her wishes. Therefore, he would rather not see this thing.
In her previous life, it was because she didn't control the situation well that war broke out everywhere and caused great suffering.
GongYimo originally invented the bomb for mining! However, because the bomb's composition was leaked, it fell into the hands of the emperor. Coincidentally, Lou Ye came to invade, and the emperor easily won the war with the bomb …
However, the good times did not last long. Gong Cheng, who had tasted the sweetness of success, was not satisfied with the status quo. He wanted to continue north. However, a fire broke out in his backyard, and the princes began to riot. In just a few years, rockets, artillery, and thunder sprung up like bamboo shoots after the rain. The Dai Yu State completely collapsed. The four princes with real power each occupied their own territories and fought fiercely!
Due to the loss of control, GongYimo and Gong Che had to guard the Imperial City. They had no choice but to use violence to curb violence!
A five year civil war broke out!
Gong Che guarded the Imperial Court, while she... waved her saber, causing rivers of blood to flow. She had become a veritable executioner!
That was why she didn't want to recall her past life! That was why she could forgive Gong Che and Gong Dai so easily! This was because she subconsciously believed that she deserved to be tortured and killed. After all, those who were affected by the war could be said to have died in her hands. She had committed a grave sin!
The greatest power of a superior was not to punish, but to forgive. That was why in this life, she could only forgive everyone before forgiving herself!
In the end, she succeeded. It took her five years to clean up the mess caused by the bomb. Other countries took the opportunity to invade, and the Dai Yu State pursued them. They used weapons that were ahead of their time to annex the three countries and unify the Central Plains.
However, at that time, the country was full of corpses... who knew how many years it would take to recover.
She became the empress as she wished. She was already in her thirties, and her best years were spent killing people. It was no wonder that others took advantage of her weakness.
However, she also hated it. She did invent the bomb, but was all of this really her fault?
Her original intention was to do a good deed. If it weren't for those men's ambitions and the uncontrollable civil war, the situation wouldn't have gotten so out of hand.
And all of these riots were suppressed by her bit by bit. She spent ten years pacifying this great war in the Central Plains, but not a single person thought of her good. It was all because she was the one who brought the bad karma to this world.
After the war stopped, she gave up her power because she was tired of it. Gong Dai and Gong Che directly took over her power, which led to the tragedy that happened later. However, this time, she wouldn't make the same mistake again!
She believed that she had the ability to protect this thing! Even if there were people who were jealous, it wouldn't be easy for them to improve the bomb to her current level.
The use of an item depended on the person who used it. If it was used to kill people, it would be a tool for killing people. If it was used for development, it would be a cure for the world!
In her previous life, the bomb had brought tragedy to the people. However, in this life, she wanted to use it to benefit the world!
Therefore, she said, "This thing in my hand can not only be used to build canals, it can also be used to open mines and build roads! There are countless uses for it! It can not only be used to kill people. There will be a day when the morals and development of the people reach the standard, and this thing will naturally appear. Now that it has been taken away, it can only be used to kill people! Do you want to see that kind of scene?! "
With a shout, her sharp eyes swept across the crowd!
"Answer my question. The son of the Minister of Revenue, Li Ke; the son of Duke Yong, Qin Qing; the grandson of the Minister of Justice, Yu Ziqing; and the grandson of Marquis Yongqing, Xu Yuan! Will you report this matter back to your families? "
She called out their names one by one, and every time she mentioned a person, that person would tremble. They were all of noble status, but they felt an unprecedented fear towards GongYimo. This kind of feeling was something they didn't even feel when facing the Emperor.
They never thought that they would be afraid of a person. After all, they were little overlords who could call the wind and summon the rain in the capital. However, at this moment, when they were called out by her cold tone, their hearts subconsciously shrank, and they also felt a sense of guilt.
Once this thing was known by the world, the pressure that GongYimo would face could be imagined. But even so, for the sake of building canals, she still took out this thing and was prepared to bear all the consequences.
She was that confident, that kind of courageous, and wholeheartedly wanted to do good, to turn a killing weapon into a sharp tool for development!
A woman was able to bend and stretch to this extent for the sake of the world. If they really did expose this secret, what kind of brotherhood would they have left?
Xu Yuan was the first to agree, "Princess, don't worry. Even if the Emperor finds out, it definitely won't be me, Xu Yuan, who exposed this secret!"
The little fatty felt a little heartache, "We all agree. Princess, quickly get up. You just walked in the water."
GongYimo's heart softened, but she still didn't move. She only raised her head to look at Gong Che.
Gong Che helplessly and dotingly helped her up, "As long as it is what you say, Crown Prince gege, I will support it."
This was considered an agreement!
GongYimo once again revealed a smile, "Everyone, don't worry. I will think of a way to conceal this along the way. With this treasure, we can expect to open the canals in two years. At that time, if the Emperor is angry because of this, the law can't punish the masses. I will do my best to protect all of you, and this treasure will also be my bargaining chip!"
She said it in such high spirits, as if she would bear the consequences herself. She was clearly younger than them, but she was so responsible. They couldn't help but dotingly look at the little girl. If such a day really came, they would definitely bear the consequences together. Otherwise, how could they be considered friends!
