Chapter Twenty-Eight: Don't Despair

In the Taihe Palace, the nine people with the highest status in Taicang looked at the extinguished light curtain and were speechless for a long time.

In their minds, the sight of the giant hammer in the light curtain bombarding down, blasting all the thousands of powerful beasts into minced flesh.

They couldn't help but ask themselves what would happen if Taicang faced this giant hammer.

The answer is obvious, even if Taicang gathers all his military strength and squeezes out all his strength, he can only despair in the face of this giant hammer.

Ji Xia looked at the gloomy look in everyone's eyes, and his heart was also quite depressed, the level of power in the light curtain was not something that Taicang could resist now, even if Taicang was ten times stronger, he would not be able to compete with such a terrifying opponent.

But he was not discouraged, even if he was worried in his heart, even if he was frightened in his heart, but he knew that panic and anxiety would be useless, and all he could do was to try his best to protect himself and the whole Taicang.

Even if you know that there is such a terrifying enemy in front of you, it is impossible to give up resistance and stretch your neck and wait for death, right?

He looked at the depressed looks on everyone's faces, couldn't help but get angry, pushed the kettle in front of him, and said sharply: "The reason why I don't want to watch the content of the jade slip at the banquet is that I am afraid that there will be content in it that can make the Taicang hundred officials fearful, and I left a few of you because you are the pillars of my Taicang!"

"The highest status among the hundred officials of Taicang is a few of you, I thought that even if the sky fell, you would all protect the people of Taicang without changing your face, but I didn't expect your performance to be so poor, your face was full of fear, horror, and despair, as if we should close our eyes and wait for death!"

"What do you want to do? Give up? Or bow down to Zhou Qingguo, so that Zhou Qingguo can let Taicang go, and from then on Taicang will become Zhou Qing's slave farm, and the people of Taicang will become Zhou Qing's food, so what about you?"

"As the leader of Taicang, do you think you can become the food of Zhou Qing's people with peace of mind? No, you will be imprisoned, you will be humiliated, and you will endure all kinds of torture until you die! Think about it, whether it is better to withstand the thunderous blow of the Great Fu Kingdom, or to become the pigs and dogs raised by Zhou Qing throughout the country. ”

When Po Xian heard Ji Xia's last words, his handsome face couldn't help but turn red, he knelt on one knee, bowed his head and said: "The lord of the country, the ministers have no idea of surrendering, and the soldiers and people of Cangcheng, even if the whole city is a dead soul, they will definitely not bow down." ”

Lu Yu and Zhaoqu were even more tearful, Lu Yu said: "We shouldn't be frightened, we are not frightened, we are old bones, we are more than eighty years old, we have lived enough, and we are not afraid of any disaster." We are terrified of Taicang, we are worried about the people of Taicang, the boys and girls of Taicang, who are about to suffer the catastrophe of destruction at their picturesque age......"

Ji Xia interrupted his words and asked, "Is the Great Fu powerhouse here?"

Everyone didn't answer, Ji Xia sneered and said, "The strong man of the Great Fu hasn't come yet, and you have this posture, which will inevitably disappoint me, the prince." ”

Ze and Qing listened to Ji Xia's words, and suddenly felt a little ashamed, when Ji Xia succeeded to the throne, the two of them were still opposed, but they didn't expect that today, Ji Xia scolded them in court for the eight people with the highest status in Taicang, but they had no way to refute it.

Because they did feel fear, they felt hopeless, and even the thought of resisting began to sink.

"Fear is inevitable. Ji Xia interrupted their thoughts with a loud voice, and he stared back and forth at the crowd: "Because fear can make us motivated, and it can make us work harder to get a chance of life." “

Ji Qianqing looked at Ji Xia's eyes and found that his eyes, which were still dodging more than ten days ago, were only firm at the moment.

"But my ministers, my people, must not despair. I only heard Ji Xia say: "Despair inevitably has low morale, it will not benefit us in the slightest, and it will not help us in the survival of our Taicang, it can only lead us to destruction." ”

"And I still have a way to win a chance for Taicang. ”

He slowly uttered the last sentence, then let out another breath of cloudy air, leaning against the throne.

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and Ji Ze hurriedly asked, "Lord, what is the way?"

The others instantly had hope in their eyes, and they looked at Ji Xia with burning eyes.

Ji Xia shook his head and replied: "I can't tell you yet, if something goes wrong, what awaits us is endless darkness, and the human race of my Taicang line will also disappear from now on." ”

"You only need to do your own thing, General Ji and the city lord of Poxian are responsible for the cultivation and training of the Cang Defender Army, and the rest of the important ministers also perform their duties, when it is time to tell you, you will naturally know. ”

He got up from his throne and said, "Go back, your lord, who is sleepy, and go back to the palace to rest." ”

After speaking, he ignored everyone and walked straight towards the back of the Taihe Palace, and halfway through, he turned back and said in a loud voice: "Menggui, you come with me, I have some spiritual matters to ask you for." ”

The devil took the command and left.

In the Taihe Palace, only the remaining seven people remained.

There was still a little shame on Po Xian's face and said: "I just questioned the temperament of the lord of the country, but I didn't expect that the lord of the country is only twenty years old, and he looks at the problem more thoroughly than our group of old ministers. ”

Lu Yu nodded and said: "The collapse of the first lord of the country really made the lord of the country grow a lot, and now his temperament is becoming more and more like the lord of the Shang country." “

"The lord of the country just said that he had a plan to let Taicang gain life, and I don't know what the plan is. There are still doubts in the repertoire, and there are worries.

"The lord of the country walks with a strong wind, and the gale should protect the lord of the country, and the lord of the country has given us many miracles in the past few days, since he said so, we will do what the lord of the country said, and perform our duties, and wait for the time to come. Ji Ze put his hands in his sleeves and lowered his eyebrows.

Ji Qianqing nodded yes, but there was a trace of doubt in her heart, when the country lord talked about that plan, his eyes were evasive, and it didn't seem like he was telling the truth at all.

"Is it just like his windy walk, just talking nonsense?" Ji Qianqing thought to herself.

In any case, as soon as Ji Xia scolded and scolded, the thick haze that shrouded the hearts of all the ministers finally dissipated a lot, and they came back to their senses and found that what Ji Xia said was extremely reasonable.

No matter how fearful, you can't despair.

Because despair is useless, there are too many things to despair in the boundless wilderness, but despair has no effect, it can only make destruction come faster.

Maybe this is the reason why Taicang has existed for more than 200 years, no matter what kind of calamity, what kind of hardship and hardship, so that the Taicang people are distressed, afraid, and desperate, but after despair, Taicang people will still wake up, and then fight for the survival of Taicang.

"Regarding the matter of the Great Fu, the people of Taicang and the hundred officials of Taicang cannot be revealed, and those who already know about it must also strictly order them not to discuss it, so as not to be frightened by the people of Taicang and cause riots. ”

Minister Ji Ze ordered in a deep voice, everyone should be.
