King's Feast

Wu Zhao's self-proclaimed "Zhen" was so loud that everyone was shocked.

This kind of behavior, which is no different from a public declaration of rebellion, could not be tolerated even by the emperor.

But after the emperor was furious, he suddenly softened his attitude under Wu Zhao's merciless sword.

The handsome young man looked at Wu Zhao affectionately, and even his voice softened again.

"Meiniang, why? Don't you want to stay away from here with me and just be an ordinary loving couple? We can live freely, and no one will disturb us."

"To shut up!"

Wu Zhao's brows and eyes were already frozen, and she looked at the emperor with deep anger brewing in her eyes.

The emperor's soft words failed to appease Wu Zhao, but made Wu Zhao even more angry.

"Maybe Wu Meiniang would want something like that. But, you have to ask her."

Wu Zhao sneered, and before the emperor wanted to say anything else, he swung the long sword in his hand heavily.

Decisive, quick, without the slightest hesitation.

The blade cut off the head/skull, and the warm blood spattered.

The emperor still had an affectionate face before he had time to react to what happened, and he was astonished under eagerness.For a moment, it was distorted like a ghost.

"Gollum..."

The head/skull arced across the air, and finally landed at Princess Taiping's feet.The blood stained the carved dragon jade steps, and also sprinkled on Princess Taiping's dress.

The emperor's head looked up at Wu Zhao, and the expression in his eyes began to become resentful.

"Meiniang, why did you reject me! Why!"

The sudden change stunned everyone.

Only Wu Zhao remained calm.

——She didn't think about holding the emperor hostage to achieve any purpose, she was just pure anger.And this anger can only be appeased by the life of the emperor.

From the moment the emperor said indifferently that he would hand over Tang Dynasty, Wu Zhao had already sentenced the emperor to death.

In the death-like silence, Wu Zhao held the blood-dripping sword.One step, one step, down the jade steps.

"I am Wu Zhao."

"I am not Wu Meiniang looking forward to love, not the woman in the deep palace waiting for the emperor's favor, nor the empress of the Tang Dynasty."

"I am Datang itself."

"And your actions are blaspheming the glory of the Tang Dynasty. Let this sin be washed away with your death!"

Wu Zhao stopped and looked down at the head with half-down eyes.

Then he swung his long sword high again and slashed down.

"Ahhhhhh!!! Wu Zhao, Wu Zhao!! I will never forgive you, never!!"

Accompanied by the emperor's last curse of resentment, the whole head immediately burst open.

The blood mist dissipated, and there was no trace of it ever existed.

Trembling, Princess Taiping looked away from the blood at her feet, as if she had been frightened by this unexpected turn of events, she raised her beautiful face dripping with tears, and looked at Wu Zhao.

"Mother, mother..."

It was a face very similar to his own.

Wu Zhao looked at Princess Taiping calmly, as if he was looking for his youthful appearance from her through time.

This is the little daughter I have always loved.

Therefore, she will not refuse any request from this daughter, no matter how capricious and absurd the request is.

——The same voice kept echoing in my mind.But Wu Zhao frowned slightly, his expression was not as soft as that of a mother who loves her child.

On the contrary, she looked at Princess Taiping calmly and frighteningly.

It's like looking at a stranger you've never seen before.

With the condescension that the emperor deserves.

Examine, deduce, analyze, plan.

But there is no warmth at all.

"Mother, you, what have you done?" Princess Taiping sensed the fear in Wu Zhao's eyes. She shivered a bit, and looked at Wu Zhao's eyes softly and pitifully.

Princess Taiping's voice still has the immaturity of a girl. When she cried for help, no mother would refuse her acting like a baby.

"Queen, I am your Taiping. You don't want Taiping to be the emperor, so why not? Don't look at me like this, I, I'm afraid."

"Queen, I'm afraid."

The tone of Princess Taiping's last word dragged on extremely long.

Wu Zhao paused.At that moment, the crying Taiping in front of him suddenly overlapped with the Taiping deep in his memory.

When she had no way to protect her little daughter, her Taiping would also crawl into her arms and act like a baby, crying and expressing her fear.

Therefore, as long as her peace becomes the crown princess, no one will threaten her peace.

As long as Taiping becomes the most honorable person in Datang...

--wrong!

Wu Zhao's expression was in a daze.

But Princess Taiping didn't even have time to take a step forward, Wu Zhao immediately came to her senses, and her eyes became firm again.

——No, this memory...is false!It's not her memory.

No matter how much she loves Taiping, she will never hand Datang into Taiping's hands at will.

Taiping does not have this qualification yet!

Wu Zhao believed in herself more than her memory.

The sword in his hand has been stained red with blood, and the black and red ominous luster has corroded the entire long sword.But Wu Zhao still raised the sword in his hand and pointed at the flustered Princess Taiping.

"Empress! Empress, don't—!"

Shangguan Wan'er's mournful cry came from behind.

The gentle woman in the official uniform acted like she was going crazy, she quickly rolled and crawled towards Wu Zhao from the high platform of the main hall, and grabbed her arm holding the sword.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty cannot kill Princess Taiping! This is your only remaining heir. I promised you that you will protect the last bloodline for your Majesty!"

Shangguan Wan'er's anxious face was stained with tears, her pitiful and loyal appearance was enough to move even the coldest hearted person in the world.

But Wu Zhao just raised his hand, pushing Shangguan Wan'er's hand away forcefully.

Then when Shangguan Wan'er wanted to charge forward again, she swung her sword without hesitation.

"Pfft—!"

The long sword pierced/pierced the chest, and pulled/drawn out firmly.

Blood spurted out immediately, staining the official uniform red.

With astonishment and disbelief, Shangguan Wan'er fell down the long jade steps from Princess Taiping's side.

"Miss?"

"I don't need subjects who will disobey orders."

Wu Zhao's face remained calm.

"Shangguan Wan'er is my subject, she will not refute the decision I have made. Holy Grail, you have shown your flaws."

Shangguan Wan'er's blood quickly corroded the long sword in Wu Zhao's hand, but Wu Zhao pointed the broken sword at Princess Taiping indifferently.

——At the moment when the emperor died completely, it was as if the shackles in his mind were suddenly successfully broken through, and a large amount of information poured in like a flood that opened the gate.

It took Wu Zhao some time to understand the information that was too large and inconsistent with his identity.

After Shangguan Wan'er's death, Wu Zhao finally understood why she always had a lingering sense of disobedience.

—Because this is not the real world.

This is a false world created by the Holy Grail.

"My queen, what are you talking about? Why did you kill Shangguan? My queen, please stop, haven't you killed enough people?"

Princess Taiping did not take Wu Zhao's words.

She is like a delicate daughter who has suddenly undergone tremendous changes, and she is still trying to win her beloved mother back.

"Mother, look around, you have killed too many people for your selfish desires! Taiping will not be the emperor, okay? Taiping will not be the Tang Dynasty, Taiping only needs you. Please, stop here! "

Weak tears rolled in the eyes, and Princess Taiping supported her back, crying until she hiccupped, her beautiful face was stained by crying, but she still looked at Wu Zhao stubbornly.

——Almost a replica of myself when I was young.

When she wanted to kill Princess Taiping, she felt absurd that she was killing herself.

This stopped Wu Zhao's movements.

At the moment Wu Zhao was stunned, the light around her suddenly dimmed, and her breath was also full of strong fishy smell and resentment.

Wu Zhao raised her eyes alertly and looked around, feeling astonished.

——The sky was clear just now, and the Tang Palace, where the canonization ceremony was held, suddenly became cloudy and thunderous.

The rain poured down.

But the smell is wrong, and the touch is not right.

Wu Zhao raised his hand to touch the raindrops that fell on his cheeks, and when he reached out to his eyes, he realized that where the rain was, it was clearly blood.

She raised her head to look at the dark clouds in the sky, but when she raised her head, she found herself standing on the last step.

And before her eyes, on the infinitely upwardly extending steps, there were dead bodies everywhere.

They were all dressed in different clothes, and they were piled up on the steps.Blood flowed from under their bodies, dripped down the steps, and gathered into streams.

In the end, at Wu Zhao's feet, they converged into a blood-colored lake.

When Wu Zhao squinted his eyes, trying to identify the familiar faces of those corpses, he had been dead for many days, but the green and white rotting corpses rolled their eyes, and all looked at Wu Zhao.

From far away to the end of the steps that go straight into the sky, to the steps that are within easy reach, the empty eyes of thousands of corpses looked at Wu Zhao together.

"Giggle..."

"Giggle..."

The sound of teeth trembling violently came from their mouths.They looked at Wu Zhao resentfully, as if they wanted to say something to her.

More and more knocks sounded.

And Wu Zhao finally recognized the face of the corpse.

...Every one of them, she knows, even familiar with.

That is her husband, heirs, courtiers, soldiers, people in her memory...

Now everyone is looking at her with resentment, as if they are questioning her:

——Aren’t you the emperor?Why didn't you shelter me, why did you let me die without a place to bury me?

—Aren’t you a mother?Why don't you love me and watch me die?

—You don't love me anymore?Why do things that disappoint me?

—Aren’t you a king?Why don't you trust me, so that I have nowhere to complain?

……

Ghostly voices, dark carnival.

Numerous hands stretched out from the pool of blood at Wu Zhao's feet, grabbed her dress, and tried to pull her into the pool of blood.

—So, come on, come to me.

As long as you make a wish to me.

No matter what kind of impossible wish.

I can do it all.

I can resurrect your subjects, resurrect your heirs, and continue your empire... All your regrets and regrets, I will make up for it.

With me, you will get the ultimate happiness.

——So, choose me~

He blew lightly into Wu Zhao's ear, like a deep whisper, teasing with a little pride.

With incomparable confidence in Wu Zhao's final choice, the voice from the darkness laughed softly.

Wu Zhao withdrew his gaze from the steps, his bright eyes were like ripples on the surface of a lake disturbed by thrown stones.

She closed her eyes.

He clenched the sword in his hand.
