Chapter 711 I Said, I'm For the Gods and Demons

    

h floor and tell the master about the stolen treasure....but was ambushed halfway through.Most importantly, the one who killed him was a powerful warrior from the Yanjiao clan!They actually made it to...Azizi left the hospital in a daze, but his heart wasn't at peace.

Even when Gongsun Wuji spoke, he wasn't listening.

"Gongsun Wuji called out several times before Ah Ci came to his senses. 'Where were we'"

"Your Majesty, since the retired emperor's condition is still stable, national affairs should still be prioritized!" Gongsun Wuji said. "After I return, I will draft a self-incrimination edict, and then it will be published by the Beijing Daily and reprinted nationwide. This will surely stabilize the hearts of the people."

Moreover, the Six Ministries also apprehended some corrupt officials, allowing for collective interrogations of these individuals to appease public discontent.

Only when the grievances of the people are quelled will they not resist the strategies promulgated by the imperial court.

Apart from that, we should publicize the fact that we have taken control of half of the Western Regions.

Although we won by a narrow margin, it's better than losing all the time.

"What people need is a little confidence!"

"Well, you go ahead and handle it!" Atsushi said.

Seeing the emperor's absent-mindedness, Gongsun Wuji also had a face full of helplessness, "Your Majesty, there is something the humble minister doesn't know if he should say or not!"

"Say!"

"It is advisable to recall the Duke of Guo and the remaining Duke back to court, entrusting them with important positions. The nation is currently facing difficulties."

These loyal and capable officials returning to the court would surely be able to invigorate the people.

Azi remained silent, the words of Li Xin and Yu Bosi echoing in his ears.

He really wanted to bravely refuse, but when the words reached his lips, he couldn't utter a single one.

"Fine, just as you say!" Atsu was utterly exhausted. One thing after another had left him drained and overwhelmed.

"Your Majesty, I believe it would be best if you personally went to invite him," Gongsun Wuji continued. "Firstly, this would show the people that Your Majesty is a wise ruler who values talent and corrects his mistakes. Secondly, it would help restore Your Majesty's image among the common people."

A-si was somewhat annoyed, but even though he was dissatisfied, the current situation was so dire that if he remained stubborn, it would only push things further into ruin.

Though Li Xin is timid, his loyalty is unquestionable.

Yu Bo's loyalty has never been questioned, from beginning to end.

Rubbing his temples, A-si said: “Prepare a gift. Tomorrow, I will visit in person.”

Gongsun Wuji glanced at Tang Jian and the others, a glimmer of delight in his eyes.

From now on, A-si has always been rigid and inflexible. This time he finally knows how to be flexible and adaptable.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

......

It was night, and Azizi, having nothing to do, wandered aimlessly until he reached the Hall of Administration.

Looking at the pitch-black LiZheng Hall, a sudden surge of anger welled up in his heart.

"Why isn't the Li Zheng Hall lit" he asked the eunuch behind him.

The eunuch close to the emperor was startled and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty had previously decreed that the Zhengdian Hall is not to be lit..."

A-shi wanted to say something, but the words died in his throat. He lifted his foot and walked outside to the Lìzhèng Hall.

In the dimly lit Hall of Administration, Qin Shuangshuang was closing her eyes and meditating.

She neither starved nor made a fuss, eating and drinking her fill every day, conserving her strength.

Hearing those familiar footsteps outside, she couldn't help but let out a cold smile.

Every few days, Ah Si would come to talk to her, but every time, it was just mutual mockery.

She laughed at A-si, saying he was not a man. A-si laughed back, saying she was not a woman.

Just so, she's been a little bored these days, so it's a good time to have a fight with him.

The door creaked open, and Ah-ci sat on the doorstep. Before Qin Shuangshuang could even speak, Ah-ci said, "Today, I don't want to argue with you. All we do is hurl insults at each other anyway."

Although you accuse me of always using the same words, your attacks only target a few points!

Qin Shuangshuang let out a disdainful smile. "You say you won't scold, you won't scold, I want to scold, who do you think you are Want to scold, just scold, want to cease fire, just cease fire"

Actually, he couldn't scold her properly. This time, he didn't want to scold her either.

If there's no friendship, then we're just acquaintances, aren't we

"No, they are enemies!"

"Well, even if they are enemies, they are the most familiar enemies to each other, right" Atsushi said. "Can't you listen to what your enemies have to say"

"I don't want to, and I'm not willing to. You must have been hit hard to come to me with this." Qin Shuangshuang knew him too well, "As I said before, going against my brother will never end well for you."

This day, this family, you also destroyed with your own hands.

You can't blame someone for that.

I'm too lazy to listen to your pointless whining. Blame yourself for this.

A-si sighed, "You're right, this world, this family, I truly destroyed it with my own hands. If I say I regret it, then yes, I do."

"Well, now that you know better, are you ready to repent"

"A person's life is full of mistakes and things they regret, but I don't feel the need to apologize because I was never wrong." Ashida said, "The biggest mistake I ever made was marrying you!"

Qin Shuangshuang's figure froze, her heart feeling like it had been pierced by a steel needle. "Is that so Me too. The biggest mistake I ever made was marrying you."

"

I really went blind dating a man like you.

"

But, the regret is real, and loving you is also real. Only now do I understand that you have bravery and strength that I lack.

Earlier, when Chai Rong married Dou Mei, many people laughed at him, but now I understand.

I am Chai Rong, you are Dou Mei.

I just lack a sense of security.

"You're no match for Chai Rong's second brother!" Qin Shuangshuang taunted. "Don't flatter yourself."

"It doesn't matter anymore. I just want to tell you, if I lose, I will drag everyone down with me, including you and the child!" A-Shi smiled. "You think I'm afraid I've been prepared for this."

"You're not even human!"

"Suit yourself." A** got up. "How can you eat and sleep every day How can you"

Is that all you've got Just because your big brother is Qin Mo

So what

Even if your older brother had the power to reach heaven, what can he do now

You are still imprisoned here, calling to the heavens but receiving no response, calling to the earth but getting no answer

"I don't mean anything by it, I just want to make your life a little harder!"

A-si rose to his feet, looking at Qin Shuangshuang in the darkness, "The world is in chaos, you are the source."

"It was you," Qin Shuangshuang clenched her fists. There was no love left between husband and wife, all that remained was hatred for Aci. If she could, she would rather die with the scoundrel.

"Don't you know deep down If you had just endured a little back then, perhaps the world would still be peaceful and the two countries wouldn't be at war. You, Qin Shuangshuang, are so proud!"

Because you, alone, have caused countless people to die for you and countless others to be displaced. All of this is your doing!

It's your narrow-mindedness, it's your lack of generosity. You can't even tolerate your wife and children. You are a disgrace to men, to husbands, to fathers.

“You're not even human!” Qin Shuangshuang said viciously. “I’ll eat and drink well here, watching how you regret it. Wait and see, time will prove who is right!”

"Ah Si chuckled lightly, “Then you better watch out!”

Turning to leave the Hall of Supreme Harmony, A-ci sighed softly, "What's the use"ned. Those forces that participated in the siege of Fang Chen should honestly hand over all their resources and seek forgiveness from Fang Tianjiao.”As for what is not there, just stay put honestly an...
