C1 The Fall of the Empire (2/2)
All of the courtier s moved the poisoned wine in their hands and drank it all in one gulp, right next to their red lips.
At this moment, the Hundred Empire Army was like a bloodthirsty beast as they charged into the main hall. Seeing the hundred officials of Chu and Tang Dynasties standing and drinking, without a hint of fear, his bloodshot eyes immediately lost their color. In that moment, everyone quieted down. The only sounds that could be heard were the sound of blood dripping down the soldier's sword and the sound of the ground being hit.
”Hahaha …”
”Once the world is destroyed, the people will live forever.”
”Don't complain about the previous generations crying their blood, their words are filled with loyalty to the Proclamation of Monarch.”
”Until the golden age of prosperity, Wang Xian will not be the Chu and Tang Dynasties King.”
The poison in Wei Zhenbang's hand was high, his talents were high, and in front of the Hundred Empire Army, who had recovered from their slaughter, he thought back to the rise and fall of the The Empire of Chu and Tang, and loudly shouted a poem that warned the future generations of emperors. After that, he drank the poison wine in his hand in one gulp, his golden bowl striking the ground as he stood with his hands behind his back, waiting for death.
”Hahaha …”
Every single one of the Hundred Empire Army soldiers were extremely shocked. The The Empire of Chu and Tang that had dominated the empire for nearly four hundred years had finally collapsed, leaving behind only the Empire's history, which had already been dyed red with blood.
With the fall of the Empire, other than the wails of millions of citizens after the war, there was not a single sound of regret. The red walls of the pavilion, the green bricks, and the green tiles had already become ruins that buried the sea of corpses. The soldiers and squads of the hundred dynasties plundered everything, not leaving even the slightest trace of evidence that this place had once been the palace.
The Chutang had already perished. In front of the eyes of the Hundred Kingdoms, there was a world where the people were all living and the corpses were scattered everywhere.
It was already certain that the Hundred Kingdoms would fight for the position of the Central Plains and the world. The people did not know who would make everyone submit. But the people were well aware that hell would soon sweep through the world, and the flames of war would burn everything. At that time, the heaven and earth would change colors, and evil spirits would wreak havoc everywhere. There was nothing that could be avoided.
A hundred miles away from Jingan City, in the depths of the forest, there were eight armored warriors holding sabers protecting a young man with jade beads on his body. Everyone's faces were filled with exhaustion and fear. Even a bright bird cry was enough to make them stand up and wait. They were so nervous that they began to sweat profusely.
”General Guo, General Zhu has been looking for food and has not returned for so long. It can't be that he escaped, right?”
The one who spoke was the Crown Prince of Chu and Tang Dynasties who had lost his country, Wei Yutian. At this point, he was still suspecting that the general who was escorting him all the way would run away.
”Your Highness, we are not afraid of death, so we must protect you well. Even now, you still doubt our loyalty. You really deserve to die.”
General Guo was the leader of the ten great Forbidden Army s. His skills were outstanding and he was completely loyal to the Wei family. He was straightforward and bold, and he hated evil. If it wasn't for the fact that the person before him was the crown prince, to whom he was sworn to serve even at the cost of his life, he would have probably ignored him long ago. But now, he could only grumble to Wei Yutian, which was the result of his heart being stifled.
”How dare you, you dog that no one has ever taught you, who gave you the courage to talk to the This Crown Prince like that?”
Wei Yutian showed his former majesty as he mercilessly cursed at General Guo. Despite being in his early twenties, he did not realize that he had already left the country and was no longer the crown prince of an Empire.
”Pah!”
General Guo slapped Wei Yutian's delicate face, a red handprint immediately appeared, as if it was a carved imprint, revealing everything that had happened. None of the other generals present stepped forward to stop his. They had wanted to teach this lawless crown prince a lesson for a long time. If he didn't want to keep a loyal name, he would have left long ago.
The burning pain made Wei Yutian cover his face and cry without mercy. Fortunately, General Guo did not use much strength. Otherwise, it would have been much easier to obtain a palm imprint on her delicate face.
”You dog, you actually dare to hit me, I will tell royal father to execute you to the death.”
Wei Yutian cried in pain as he used his identity as the crown prince to threaten the General Guo.
”You, the crown prince of a fallen nation, are still acting so arrogantly even now. So what if I hit you? If not for you, how could the world of Chu and Tang Dynasties be destroyed? If it wasn't for you, how could the people in this world be burnt to ashes? If it weren't for you, how would we generals flee with you? Now, you still want to play with your crown prince's temper, and even want your royal father to execute me whole family. Let me tell you, the entire family of the Guo family and our generals have been massacred for the sake of you, the Wei family. And your royal father, may have already died in the palace to protect you, the useless crown prince of a failed nation. Your mother must also have died the same way. ”
General Guo spat out all the dissatisfaction he had accumulated in one breath. After he finished puking, he was truly satisfied.
”No, no …” The strong and powerful Chutang could not die, nor could my mother have died in the Imperial Palace. It's all because of you useless dogs. If it wasn't for you being unable to stop the barbarian army, how could I have fallen into this damp and cold forest? Men, come on, come on, cut this son of a bitch who dares to beat up his master! ”
Wei Yutian's face was filled with panic, as he did not believe everything that had happened. He had never suffered any grievances, and even his mother, the royal father, had never hit him. Tears quickly streamed down the face of this twenty-something hedonistic crown prince, and his panic-stricken and terrified eyes were also bloodshot.
When the General Guo heard Wei Yutian's words, he was so angry that he couldn't help but raise the Right Hand that was beating him up again …
