I Wanna Be An Online Celebrity Chapter 117 Persecution

The fire ignited for ten miles, and the people were displaced. The situation should be a little bit creepy by looking at the roads and forests carefully.

The war with the Nanmen Country began quietly. In addition to years of grievances, the cause of the war was also a woman who was pregnant.

In the imperial hall, the atmosphere was a bit serious.

"Your Majesty, please think about it carefully. Yue Ji is so beautiful and coquettish that she really is the disaster for the country. In addition, this enchantress also enchanted the emperor of Nanmen Country. This time, she is the cause of this war."

Adding to his worries, that old minister raised the jade tablet in his hand and bowed to Chu Tiankuo, "I asked Your Majesty to hand over the enchantress to defend our country."

After a person spat out what other ministers thought, they seemed to be relieved. They all agreed with that old minister, "We all agree with that. Your Majesty, please think about it carefully."

What neat advice! Sitting on the dragon chair, Chu Tiankuo squinted slightly, and there was a cold light flas.h.i.+ng. He tapped the armrest of the dragon chair and said coldly, "You, are all the people who think about the country. Should I reward you?"

They thought that reporting together had made sense. Before the smiles appeared on those ministers' faces, Chu Tiankuo said coldly, "Such a big country should be protected by a woman's sacrifice. You all have really good abilities."

After all, Chu Tiankuo was the emperor of a country, who once let the army make the hall full of blood and led the soldiers to force the enemy for over ten miles. This cold sentence frightened the ministers.

However, some ministers still didn't give up. Having a.s.sisted for three dynasties, they still didn't want to leave even if the hair turned grey. They were loyal, but it was stupid loyalty.

The national counselor walked out of the crowd with heavy steps. He stroked his long beard, bowed and said, "Since she is just a weak woman, so why couldn't she be loyal to the country? Everyone should know that all men share responsibility for the rise and fall of their nation. Although she is a woman, she can also do her part to be loyalty to the country. In my opinion, Your Majesty should expel the enchantress from the country."

"Humph."

Chu Tiankuo sneered and thought, "This arrogant guy is overestimating himself. Does this guy think that I am still the young emperor who was easy to control?"

"Have you already served for three dynasties?"

Supporting his head, Chu Tiankuo's slightly raised his mouth and showed a look of satire.

The national counselor straightened his back and said, "Thanks to Your Majesty for remembering that. I have a.s.sisted from Your Majesty's father. Although I'm in a venerable age, I still can serve our country."

"That's it." Chu Tiankuo changed an angle to support his head and said, "You are so laborious, so I allow you to return home and enjoy the old age from now on."

Like a thunderbolt out of a clear sky, the national counselor did not think that he, who had been loyal and laborious for the whole life, would be persuaded to return home by the emperor.

He had a.s.sisted three dynasties. How could this kind of loyal minister leave the government?

At this moment, the anger rushed to his heart. The national counselor directly confronted with Chu Tiankuo, "Your Majesty fired the loyal minister without any reason. Won't Your Majesty worry that the country will have no minister, and the affairs will be in disorder?"

The ministers who reported together before were quiet now. "Are you kidding? Wasn't quarreling with the emperor a road to death?"

Only this self-righteous national counselor dared to be so arrogant. They could distinguish who was more important. An old minister or the emperor of a country?

"The national counselor is courageous. Not bad. Not bad."

Chu Tiankuo's two consecutive "not bad" made people feel cold in the heart. Then they heard his next words. "Who else would like to keep advance and retreat with the national counselor?"

Originally, the national counselor was full of confidence that there should be many people behind him. But when he turned back, he suddenly found out that he was the only one stood in the middle of the imperial hall.

A bad premonition came quietly. But the disdainful curve on Chu Tiankuo's mouth made his heart cold.

"The national counselor is old, so it is time to enjoy the time of retirement."

Chu Tiankuo said with a faint smile in his voice, "It's better to let the son of the National Counselor Mansion also return home together. Won't it be better for you to be accompanied by sons and grandsons in your old age?"

The means of Chu Tiankuo were indeed really powerful. In the blink of an eye, the achievements of the national counselor for several years had been eliminated in a few words. And the future of his generations was hopeless.

The national counselor's face instantly became pale. He took a step back and sighed.

At this time, the teahouse flag fluttered on the street. In a remote alley, the middle-aged man bent and said to several children with a few silver changes and several candied fruits in hand,

"Did you remember what I taught you before? If you complete the task, these are all yours." After finis.h.i.+ng, he shook the things in his hands.

Several children immediately formed a circle, and they sang while clapping their hands, "Stupid emperor, and coquettish enchantress. Expel the loyal minister, do wilful things. The country is in danger, the country is in danger. It is better to go to Nanmen Country."

The middle-aged man smiled and distributed the things. Looking at the jumping children, he laughed evilly. "Hahaha, the country will perish. It's better to come to my Nanmen Country."

When rumors came out, they would spread all over the street. Probably this was the power of spreading by word of mouth. Soon, it could be easily seen that a few children were singing the song on the street. And people in the country were anxious and upset all day.

Hearing about the things in the palace, people gradually began to be dissatisfied with Chu Tiankuo. So the advantages of Nanmen Country were more and more obvious at this time. Later, there were some people supporting Nanmen Country in public. Although the local government had suppressed them, the tendency was going up.

Now people complained a lot for their bitterness. In the imperial palace, there were also ministers who took the opportunities to oppose Chu Tiankuo and made problems secretly. It could also be said that Chu Tiankuo was arduous to cope with these. Even so, he still didn't compromise.

When Chu Tiankuo was watching the memorials in the study room, he was distressed to look at all the contents regarding Yue Ji. Although he didn't care about them, it was very annoying that so many flies were noisy around his ears.

He just put down the pen, then suddenly someone came to report.

He frowned, "What happened? Why are you so panicked?"

The slave kowtowed directly. "The emperor, the army of Nanmen Country has already arrived at the gate of the Seventh City. I heard that the army is unstoppable. And, and Nanmen Yi will lead the army personally!"

"He is really not afraid of death." Chu Tiankuo slightly twitched his lips and looked at the boundless sky outside. It seemed that he had foreseen the pervasive gunpowder smoke of the war. It was another turbulent dynasty.

"Pa.s.s my order. I will also lead the army personally. I will fight with Nanmen Yi personally." Waving with a weasel hair brush, the feeling of aggressiveness appeared immediately.

The high tower was cold, and the cold wind was blowing. Under the gate tower were over 100 thousand soldiers of Nanmen Country. And across the city, there were more than ten million people.

Chu Tiankuo stood on the high tower in the wind, and the wind blew the red belt on his armor. There was a cold light on his silver armor.

Seeing Chu Tiankuo come out, Nanmen Yi showed a look of sarcasm. "In this situation, did he still dare to come out?"

"Chu Tiankuo, as long as you give me Xiaxia, I can let your people live. Then you will not be regarded as an eternal sinner when you are defeated."

The soldiers of Nanmen Country had already started to kick up a fuss. "Give the beauty to our emperor, and we will leave you half a life."

"Hahaha, yeah, the beauty is of course to match the hero. Acting like a coward? What the f.u.c.k?"

Chu Tiankuo's eyes were still calm. Now the troops of Nanmen Country is here, if he unleashed his troops, it would only make them die. The people in this city were weak, so there would be a bloodbath if he opened the gate.

He had to refrain for the people and defeat Nanmen Country with the most impeccable strategy. What he was responsible for was not only his own safety, but also the survival of the whole country, and the woman he loved in his heart.

Chu Tiankuo waved his hand and said word by word, "This gate must be unbreakable. All the soldiers will be alive or dead with it."

"Yes!" The soldiers made a neat sound.

At this time, the palace was a mess. Hearing the news that the army of Nanmen Country was at the gate, they all fled in all directions.

After all, life was always more important than great power or position.

People in different positions were no different. A humble wood-cutter still could rob with the eunuch chief for a beautifully carved small kiln.

In order to face the war, the maids and embroidered women had already hidden their private money and valuable jewelry early, which were preserved for a long time.

Nanmen Yi led more than 100,000 troops to invade. Hearing the news, Tang Xia couldn't sit still. She was worried about Chu Tiankuo, but the child in her belly could not stand the b.u.mps. She called the secret guard, who was sent by Chu Tiankuo to protect her, and told him, "Take me to the palace. I will see Chu Tiankuo."

These secret guards hesitated. At this extraordinary time, the palace was too dangerous. Since Chu Tiankuo placed her out, he was naturally worried about her safety. Now she wanted to go to the palace, so she would get close to a dangerous place.

"What? Are you unwilling?" Tang Xia was anxious, so she pretended to be angry, and her face suddenly became serious, "If you refuse, I will go there by myself. The emperor will not forgive you if something happens."

Saying this, Tang Xia raised her skirt. She used one hand to protect the belly and walked towards the door.

"Your Grace! Wait!" A secret guard called Tang Xia hurriedly.

"What?"

There was still no expression on the secret guard's face. "I know that there is a secret road to the palace. But it is a little far for Your Grace and the little prince, so please stand it."

Tang Xia smiled. The secret road was much safer than the road outside. She touched the child in her belly, and she didn't know how Chu Tiankuo was now. "Child, don't be afraid, you would see your father soon."

The secret road was a little dark, but several secret guards scattered around to protect Tang Xia. They protected her safely.

After a long time, she slowly came up and looked at the imperial palace which was in chaos, and sighed for a moment.

It turned out that all the prosperity was so easy to disappear. The solemnity of the Royal Family had become a memory. But she did not believe in destiny. She must help Chu Tiankuo to win this world.

She didn't know what to do after falling in love with someone. But what she would do was to try her best to help him get and guard what he wanted.

And the man was facing this scene in front of her. Tang Xia's hand held his with fingers crossed gently.

Chu Tiankuo turned around suddenly. Tang Xia smiled slightly with her absolute beauty.

"It's me, Yue Ji."
