Chapter 307 Look, I won
The rain kept falling and the floods raged.
Because the heavy rain happened to coincide with the time when the empress sent troops to the Yue Kingdom, some people inevitably connected this with the empress.
Gradually there were rumors such as 'the empress was cruel and was punished by heaven'.
As more and more people were affected by the disaster, this rumor became more and more popular, and the people complained, and some officials began to try to persuade the empress to stop the conquest and not to go against God.
Xiao Li looked at the ministers gathered in front of him, a casual smile appeared on his lips, and his eyes were light and cold: "You think so too?"
Naturally, these ministers had no complaints against the emperor, and they also supported the emperor's expansion of territory. However, it was raining heavily outside, the floods were surging, and it was really strange that the sky was angry and people were complaining.
Wen Qian, the Minister of Civil Affairs, stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I don't believe in any talk of natural punishment, but things are too coincidental. Your Majesty might as well suspend the war. The small country of Yue is not enough to bet on the reputation of the emperor. Wait until the flood passes. It’s never too late to cut again.”
Zhang Zan, the Minister of Rites, said: "I agree with Lord Wen's statement. Your Majesty is wise, but the people are ignorant and believe in the theories of gods and ghosts. This is unreasonable at this time. For the sake of the stability of the world, please suspend the conquest."

Others saluted: "Your Majesty, please suspend the conquest."
Xiao Li looked at this scene and found it very interesting.
Heaven wants her to retreat, the people want her to retreat, and now the ministers are also urging her to retreat.
It was obviously the consciousness of heaven that caused the flood, but in the end everyone felt that she should retreat.
"The people are right, it is a punishment from heaven."
When Xiao Li finished speaking, there was a huge thunder outside.
Boom!
Lightning as thick as a bucket struck directly in front of the temple.
It was a warning to her, but it also confirmed that what she said was true.
A group of officials all looked horrified.
"Your Majesty." They looked at the emperor above them in disbelief.
However, others were frightened by the punishment from heaven and unwilling to admit it. Their emperor not only admitted it personally, but also smiled on his face.
She was not afraid of the thunder outside at all: "Do you think, my ministers, that I have really sinned so much that I need to be punished by heaven?"
Everyone immediately shook their heads: "His Majesty is wise and powerful, creating a new dynasty, benefiting the world, and benefiting the people. Although he uses thunderous means, he only seeks to eliminate those who rebel against the party, and never hurts innocent people. He is a wise king who can be traced back through the ages and is comparable to the saints."
They are children from poor families who have experienced the oppression of the nobles, poor scholars who have been depressed for many years, and despicable people who are full of revenge but are crushed by the children of the nobles just because of their status.
They have seen the most corrupt and filthy nobles, they are the ones being eaten in a cannibalistic society.
Because of the Empress, they have the opportunity to show off their talents. Because of the Empress, they can be proud and proud.
They are the courtiers brought out by the Empress, the pearls lifted out of the abyss by the Empress.
Mu Qiang is natural, regardless of gender. They follow the emperor who opened up a new dynasty and cleared the clouds for them to see the blue sky.
I don’t know what people will think in the future, but for this group of people, the Empress is their faith, and the words spoken at this moment are definitely from the heart.
Xiao Li smiled and sighed: "Look, this is the reason for heaven's punishment."
She stood up slowly: "It's not that I did something wrong, but that He thought I was wrong."
"I shouldn't be an emperor, I shouldn't massacre nobles to rebuild civilization, I shouldn't unify the world and create a prosperous age."
"He is jealous of me, jealous that I have your trust, jealous that my prestige is higher than his."
"He set off a huge flood to force me to retreat, and will force me to die in the future. At that time, the new emperor will come back with the dormant nobles. If I die, you will not be able to survive. At that time, the nobles will still be nobles, and the poor families will still be poor families. There is no more fairness, no chance of success.”
She turned around slowly, with her back to the rain, proudly:
"Do you think I should retreat?"
She took a step back, and suddenly thunder fell, and the heaven and earth were dazzling in an instant.
There was a blinding whiteness in his vision, and there was a deafening buzzing in his ears.
"Your Majesty!"
Everyone was so frightened that they fell to their knees. They didn't know how long it took, but their eyesight finally recovered, and they saw the empress still standing in the open air.
Alive and intact.
Such huge thunder and lightning made even them feel pain, but it did not hurt the empress at all. Moreover, the rain also stopped, and the sunshine after the rain slowly dispersed.
The world washed by water was fresh and clean, and the water droplets reflected the sunlight, making the world shine. The empress stood there, her whole body seemed to be glowing.
From behind, a silver figure walked through the rain, carrying something in his hand.
Finally, he walked up the steps step by step, stood in front of the empress, knelt on one knee, and dragged a box upwards with both hands.
"The Kingdom of Yue has been defeated, and the guilty king Murong Yu resisted stubbornly and was beheaded in front of the battle."
"Here is the head of Murong Yu on his neck. Your Majesty, please take a look."
Xiao Li smiled, arrogantly, but his tone was casual and leisurely: "Look, I won."
Using one's body as a bait, one can win half of the chess piece in the sky.
She was a human being, shining brightly, and to the consciousness of Heaven, she was nothing more than a drop in the ocean, but they could not kill her.
This book was recently updated in ##六@@九@@书@@!! Updated!
They are the consciousness of the world, the way of heaven, the way of demons, and are extremely powerful.
And although she is weak, she is still the Tao, the Tao of the world.
This is why Xiao Li picked up the jade seal in the first place.
She doesn't want to be an emperor. She always feels that the world she lives in is unreal. What's the point of playing games and becoming an emperor?
But her unreality is their and even their reality.
They were fighting over each other, whether it was King Chen or Lu Nianqing, they were all focused on the throne.
So this must be something they care about, so she will sit here and see what tricks they want to play.
As it turns out, she was right.
They couldn't kill her, couldn't do anything to her, and even started to fear her.
How interesting that a being with a powerful world consciousness that enveloped the entire world was actually afraid of her, a human soul from another world.
She is a winner. Have you ever seen a winner at a gambling table give in and give their money back?
The arrogant emperor in the sunshine after the thunder deeply shocked the hearts of everyone present.
I don’t know who knelt down first.
"Long live my emperor! Long live!"
"Long live my emperor! Long live!"
The feeling of being shocked at this moment, the overflowing admiration and surrender in my heart, cannot be expressed in words, I can only shout.
The empress was calm, domineering and majestic. She waved her sleeves and left, taking away Chu Yungui who was holding the head.
However, not far away from everyone's sight, Xiao Li spurted out a mouthful of blood and almost fell down on the spot.
Rong Qing and Chu Yungui reached out at the same time to support her.
"Your Majesty."
Rong Qing gently wanted to pick her up, but Xiao Li raised his hand to refuse.
"I'm fine."
It's just vomiting blood, but he won't die anyway.
He looked back at Chu Yungui and said, "Go to the study and write down the story of the war. I'll see you later."
Chu Yungui was stung by the blood on the ground and did not dare to say more: "I obey your order."
