Chapter 200 Crisis
The picture is playing.
The video shows the Yanqing Palace of the Great Zhou Dynasty, which is the same place as the Qinzheng Palace of Daliang.
Mogu was kneeling on the ground, speaking to the king of Zhou.
It was at this moment that Ji Chenxing saw the appearance of the Emperor of the Great Zhou for the first time.
He had the same dark brown skin color as Mogu, and he didn't look very old, probably in his twenties, which was the best time of one's life.
His face is angular, except for his nose which is a little flat.
This is an appearance that adapts to the local climate. Ji Chenxing did not comment on the appearance of this monarch.
As he was watching, the King of Zhou on the screen spoke.
"This time when you go to Daliang, you must remember the things I told you."
Mogu was also very respectful to his emperor. As soon as the king of Zhou finished speaking, Mogu lowered his head even more.
"I will keep it in mind."
The King of Zhou nodded and said, "First of all, you must remember to bring all the gifts that I ordered to be prepared for Daliang. Even if we are not sincere in making friends, we must make full efforts on the surface."
The Mogu on the screen was very pious, but the Mogu in reality was sweating coldly.
These were things that could only be said behind closed doors among one's family. Now that everyone in Daliang knew about them, it was hard to say whether he could get out of Daliang this time.
Mogu wanted to call a halt, as he had already confirmed that what was playing in Daliang's "Water Mirror of the Immortal" was real.
But there was no way Jun Heng would agree to Mo Gu's request. Before Mo Gu could even open his mouth, he was so scared by Jun Heng's look that he swallowed the words back into his stomach.
The scene continues.
On the screen, Mo Gu looked down at the ground. "Your Majesty, rest assured. I will never forget my mission. I will do my best to find out more about Daliang and prepare for our attack on Daliang."
Hearing Mo Gu's words, the king of Zhou seemed to be excited and shouted, "Good!"
After that, he looked at the eunuchs beside him and said, "You, ask them to bring up the fine iron sword I just got, and let Lord Mo carry it with him. When he sees those weak scholars in Daliang, give them the sword and let them see how powerful our Zhou Kingdom is now! These one million elite soldiers with the fine iron sword are enough to kill through the capital of Daliang!"
After the king of Zhou finished speaking, he laughed proudly.
When Mogu in the video heard the king's words, he also laughed in unison.
The scene suddenly stopped at the moment when they were laughing the happiest.
Against the backdrop of their dark skin, the white teeth of King Zhou and Mogu looked particularly dazzling.
However, this scene was extremely funny in the eyes of the people in the hall.
Even some ministers who were always serious and seemed to be born not to laugh laughed out loud.
The pride of the Great Zhou had been broken into two pieces and was now lying on the floor. No dog passing by was willing to take a second look at it.
At this moment, Mogu's face was red with a hint of black.
He didn't know what to say and immediately knelt in front of Jun Heng.
This kneeling is to beg for mercy.
If it were any other situation, maybe he could have survived, but this time, he had nothing to say.
It would be fine if we couldn't beat Daliang in poetry and songs, after all, Daliang was much stronger than Zhou.
However, in terms of weapons, Da Zhou was no match for Daliang, which was something Mogu had not expected.
But now that things have come to this, all of Zhou’s affairs have been exposed, and Mogu can do nothing about it.
He now only hopes that Jun Heng will spare his life for the sake of the people of both countries and not initiate a war.
But before Jun Heng could say anything, Ji Chenxing spoke first.
"Lord Mo, this princess never expected that your Zhou Kingdom is facing such a serious crisis, but you are still thinking about attacking us?" Ji Chenxing said, looking at Mo Gu with a very sharp gaze.
Mo Gu was stunned for a moment. He didn't know what Ji Chenxing was talking about.
The State of Zhou has had some crises recently, such as a little more rain, but compared with the water in Daliang, the disaster in the State of Zhou is really nothing.
Ji Chenxing saw what Mo Gu was thinking.
"Master Mo, I'm afraid you don't know that the floods in Zhou Kingdom have become more and more severe in recent days."
After Ji Chenxing finished speaking, he waved his hand and some images of floods immediately appeared on the screen.
In the video, the earth-colored flood swept down from the mountain, carrying grass and trees, accompanied by the screams of the people.
In the water, you can clearly see the huts and wood that were washed away by the water, and the dead cattle and sheep.
A little higher up, there were still some living people. Some of them were crying loudly, some were holding the bodies of dead babies in their arms, and some were desperately stuffing food into their mouths...
These people were all pale and thin, with despair in their eyes.
Facing the same flood, compared with the people in Daliang on the screen just now, the people of Zhou State felt like they had entered hell.
This is the real disaster! The reason why the people of Daliang can live so well is all because of the help of the gods.
But they in the Zhou Kingdom don’t have that!
To them, this flood was a real flood.
Even if the severity was not even one-tenth of that of Daliang, it was definitely a catastrophic disaster for the Zhou State, which was not materially wealthy.
Mo Gu suddenly felt panicky.
Only then did he realize that it was Ji Chenxing who had just shown him those videos that made him treat the flood as a joke.
It was precisely because he underestimated the flood that he felt good about himself for a time, thinking that their Great Zhou would definitely be able to defeat Daliang.
Ji Chenxing obviously saw what Mo Gu was thinking. The smile disappeared from her face and was replaced by a look of pity.
"Look, Lord Mo, this is the current situation of your Zhou Kingdom."
Ji Chenxing shook his head and kept switching the live broadcast system to more tragic scenes.
The live broadcast system has not yet arrived in Zhou State, so these images are naturally not from Zhou State, but rather videos cut and synthesized by the system from various modern live broadcast platforms.
Anyone with a little bit of insight can tell that this video is fake, at least this place is not the Zhou Kingdom.
But because Ji Chenxing had been giving Mogu a sense of oppression, Mogu believed it.
"This...is this our Great Zhou?"
To Daliang, Mogu may be a villain, and his appearance does not bring any benefit to Daliang.
But to the Zhou Kingdom, Mogu was a minister who loved his people like his own children.
When Mo Gu saw these things in Ji Chenxing’s video, his heart felt as if it was being cut.
The people are the foundation of a country. If all the people of a country die, the imperial power will exist in name only.
"Your Majesty, I know I was wrong!"
Mo Gu kowtowed to Jun Heng several times.
After kneeling before Jun Heng, he also bowed several times to Ji Chenxing.
"Your Majesty, Princess, I know I was wrong. Daliang is strong and powerful, far beyond the reach of my small Zhou Kingdom."
After Mo Gu finished speaking, tears flashed in his eyes and his gaze towards Ji Chenxing was full of desire.
"I wonder if the gods of Daliang can also bless our Great Zhou?"
