Chapter 776: I would rather die in battle and lose the country!
Three days later.
A golden chariot comes from the sky.
Go straight to Tianwu Capital.
There are countless figures following this golden chariot.
Every figure has a strong aura.
Can be called a master.
Flags waved one after another.
Powerful and majestic.
Earth-shattering.
On each flag, there is a bright word "zhou" engraved on it.
This is the flag of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Represents the Great Zhou Dynasty!
On top of the golden chariot, there is an emperor's flag with the word "Ji" erected.
A slightly fat figure sat in the golden chariot.
Endless imperial power was released from this figure.
Wherever he went, everyone knelt down to welcome him.
The person sitting in the chariot is none other than Emperor Ji Haoxuan of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Sima Shang, dressed in black robe and with a weathered face, accompanied the chariot.
Sima Shang is Ji Haoxuan's confidant and is deeply trusted and reused by Ji Haoxuan.
At this moment.
Ji Haoxuan is here to accept surrender.
Sima Shang followed beside him, he was also proud of the spring breeze and his face was full of joy.
The pride and joy in Sima Shang's heart can be said to be the highest in the entire Great Zhou Dynasty.
Because he has a grudge against the Tianwu Dynasty.
To be precise, he had a grudge against Dongfang Su.
When the Sima family revolted in the Southern Wilderness, the momentum was overwhelming, and the situation was great for a time.
Unfortunately it failed in the end.
Under the persecution of Dongfang Su and others, the Sima family could only retreat to the Southern Wilderness sadly.
He has since disappeared.
nowadays.
The Sima family submitted to the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Helped the Great Zhou Dynasty to unify the Southern Wilderness.
Now it is time to accept Dongfang Su's surrender.
When he thought of this, Sima Shang felt happy.
He planned to wait until he saw Dongfang Su before standing up and humiliating Dongfang Su.
Sima Shang had even begun to imagine how shocked and ashamed Dongfang Su would be when he saw him.
"what's on your mind?"
Ji Haoxuan, who had been closing his eyes to rest his mind, suddenly said something coldly.
Although he didn't look at anyone, Sima Shang knew that he was asking a question to himself.
Sima Shang's heart trembled.
He quickly bowed his head and handed over his hands.
"Reporting to your Majesty, I am thinking about how to deal with Dongfang Su's affairs after accepting the surrender of the Tianwu Dynasty."
Ji Haoxuan slowly opened his eyes.
His eyes looked at Sima Shang with deep meaning.
"This matter should be considered by me."
Sima Shang's expression changed and he quickly knelt down.
"Your Majesty, forgive me!"
Ji Haoxuan didn't mean to blame Sima Shang.
He knows how to control people.
All the officials and subordinates were in awe of him.
Even those who later surrendered to him were all treated submissively by Ji Haoxuan.
No one dared to do anything under his nose.
This is Ji Haoxuan's ability.
He seemed to be born to be the emperor.
soon.
Tianwu Kingdom has arrived.
Sima Shang looked at the capital of Tianwu Kingdom and couldn't help but frown.
"Your Majesty, no one from Tianwu Kingdom came out today."
Ji Haoxuan also took a look, but there was no change in expression on his face.
When the golden chariot stopped in mid-air, the strong men behind them also stood still.
Ji Haoxuan looked at the quiet Tianwu Capital below, with a smile on his lips.
"Dongfang Su, are you really going to fight stubbornly?"
He muttered to himself.
Ji Haoxuan glanced at him.
A big man in armor next to him immediately stepped out in one step.
"His Majesty the Great Zhou Dynasty has arrived!"
"Tianwu Dynasty Dongfang Su, come out quickly to greet us!"
A loud shout spread throughout the entire Tianwu Kingdom in an instant.
And it echoed three times in a row.
But there was no reaction in the entire country.
It seems like this is an empty and lonely city.
However, whether it is Ji Haoxuan or others from the Great Zhou Dynasty, they can feel that there are many auras in this city.
It shows that this city is not an empty city.
But why don't you see anyone coming out to surrender?
Could it be that he is really struggling to his death?
Ji Haoxuan's face looked slightly gloomy.
He had already told Dongfang Su before that he would come to accept the surrender in three days.
Results now.
But no one came out of Tianwu Kingdom's capital.
What does it mean?
Do you not take your own words seriously at all?
I was already very tolerant. I didn't humiliate Dongfang Su and gave him enough dignity.
"It seems that Dongfang Su has lost his mind."
Sima Shang said from the side.
Ji Haoxuan smiled.
Only those who know him well know.
This kind of smile would only appear when Ji Haoxuan was in a bad mood.
"Dongfang Su."
Ji Haoxuan spoke loudly.
"My patience is limited. If you don't come out of the city to surrender within a stick of incense, I will slaughter you, the capital of Tianwu Kingdom!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the majesty of the emperor was fully displayed.
Ji Haoxuan raised his hand.
A golden magic circle fell.
It actually enveloped the entire Tianwu Capital City
this moment.
No one in Tianwu Capital City can escape.
And the life and death of the entire capital city will fall on Dongfang Su alone.
If he surrenders.
The people of Wu Kingdom were spared that day.
If he stubbornly resists, all the people in the city will be buried with Dongfang Su.
at this time.
Rumble!
The city gate is open.
The civil and military officials of the Tianwu Dynasty walked out of the city gate one by one.
The leader was a man with an old face and a trembling figure.
"On behalf of all the ministers of the Tianwu Dynasty, the veteran surrenders to His Majesty the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty!"
Immediately afterwards.
The people also walked out of the city gate one after another.
"The grassroots are willing to surrender!"
"The common people are willing to surrender!"
"I beg the Emperor of Zhou for mercy!"
All ministers please surrender.
People, please surrender.
But only, no one from the palace came out to ask for surrender.
Ji Haoxuan looked at the people below who came out to ask for surrender, his expression as calm as water.
His eyes slowly looked towards the Tianwu Imperial Palace.
And inside the palace at this moment.
Dongfang Su was dressed in white and stood in the ancestral hall.
Looking at the spiritual thrones of successive Tianwu emperors.
In his hand, he held a long sword.
behind him.
They are all the concubines of Dongfang Su.
and three princes.
There is also a princess who is only two years old.
Gu Yue stood on the outside, her eyes full of determination and heroism.
Dongfang stared at the spiritual throne for a long time.
He turned around and looked at the people behind him.
"Are you willing to go with me?"
"Your Majesty! I, my concubines, and everyone else are willing to live and die with your Majesty!"
Queen Dongfang Su spoke immediately, her voice sonorous and powerful.
There was no trace of fear or hesitation in his eyes.
The other concubines were the same as her.
Although they are all women in the harem, at this moment they are more willing to die than the men.
"Father, I am willing to go with my father!"
The three princes spoke in unison and knelt behind Dongfang Su.
Dongfang Su smiled.
nodded.
"good very good."
"You are worthy of being my family member, Dongfang Su, and you are worthy of being the ancestors of all generations!"
After speaking, Dongfang Su waved his long sword.
Starting from the Queen, then all the concubines.
They are all willing to die under Dongfang Su's sword.
The temple is stained with blood!
After killing all his queen and concubines, Dongfang Su looked at his three sons.
Without any hesitation, the three sons all pulled out their swords and committed suicide in front of Dongfang Su.
Dongfang Su shed two lines of tears and his lips trembled violently.
He looked at his youngest daughter again.
At this moment, she still didn't know what happened, and stood there timidly looking at Dongfang Su.
Dongfang Su raised the sword in his hand, but did not drop it in the end.
"Gu Yue, take her away."
"No matter what, let her live."
Gu Yue walked in and picked up the young princess.
Then he knelt in front of Dongfang Su.
"Your Majesty, I swear to protect the princess to the death!"
After saying that, Gu Yue turned around and left resolutely.
Sometimes, living people suffer more than dead people.
Because he has to continue to live a difficult life with pain and responsibility.
Dongfang stared at the lonely moon's retreating figure.
Showing a hint of relief.
The monarch and his ministers have been together for decades, but Lone Yue is the only person Dongfang Su can trust completely.
"Forefathers and clans, our descendants are unworthy of our descendants Dongfang Su. Today we are ashamed of our ancestors!"
Dongfang Su took the blood-stained sword and rushed out of the ancestral hall resolutely.
He wants to fight Ji Haoxuan for his life.
"I would rather die in battle and lose the country."
