Chapter 119 Deliberate Punishment of Ziyou
Under the gloomy sky, the atmosphere of irritability and depression filled the surroundings. At this moment, everyone lowered their heads with bated breath. The air around them seemed to be frozen, making people feel suffocated.
Ziyou's figure stopped for a moment, then turned and walked towards the queen's room.
"Miss Zi, you can't go."
There were so many soldiers present, but only General Bei Jing stepped forward to stop her.
"Get out of the way." Ziyou's tone was cold, as if he would start a killing spree in the next second.
"His Majesty said that once you realize your mistake, you can go see the Queen. Before that, please stand here and think carefully about what you have done."
After saying this, General Bei Jing's heart was beating fast. These past two days had been too exciting and he could hardly bear it.
Ziyou really stood there and thought about it carefully.
When the soldiers saw this, they seemed to have learned some extraordinary information: the goddess was being punished in Qiuhong Palace?
As soon as this idea came to their mind, they shook their heads and rejected it, thinking it was too far-fetched.
The soldiers who were originally looking straight ahead now lowered their heads and reduced their presence because of the presence of the goddess.
The previous arrangements are over, it won’t be because of this.
He himself did not devour any life, and the black market would not stand idly by. After all, it has been explained that the people in that world are already dead.
What else could it be because of?
Ziyou thought about it for a long time, but until dark he still couldn't figure out what he had done wrong.
There were countless palace maids and eunuchs passing by outside the Qiuhong Palace. Some of the brave ones had already spread the news, attracting countless people to pretend to pass by just to verify the authenticity of the information.
"The goddess is really being punished in Qiuhong Palace!"
"But why? Isn't she a goddess? How can she be controlled by humans?"
Messy rumors were spreading everywhere, and General Bei Jing even went in to ask for instructions from the emperor, but was told not to bother.
General Bei Jing already had some guesses in his mind. Miss Zi might have really recognized His Majesty and the Queen as her parents, otherwise this behavior would never have happened.
Soldiers changed shifts one after another, and only Ziyou remained where he was.
What other details have I missed?
The fact that the goddess stood in Qiuhong Palace for two days and one night was no longer a secret in the palace. No one stopped it and everyone just discussed it behind their backs.
"Your Majesty, it looks like it's going to rain outside." Eunuch Wang reminded Nan Wanxing considerately.
However, the other party did not stop reviewing the memorials.
Eunuch Wang didn't know what was going on and why they treated the goddess like this. He glanced at the weather outside, hoping it wouldn't rain, otherwise who knows what rumors would spread.
Sometimes, the more you don’t want something to happen, the more likely it is to happen.
Not long after Eunuch Wang prayed, it really started to rain, and it was a heavy rain.
Before the rain fell, Ziyou used her energy to create a protection around herself, blocking all the rain, so no matter how heavy the rain was, her body remained clean.
General Bei Jing was called away by His Majesty again. When he came back, his steps became noticeably heavier.
He stood beside the goddess and bowed. After hesitating for a long time, he still didn't speak. Finally, he made a decision. He would accept the punishment and he would not pass on this order!
When turning around to leave, Zi You asked, "General, do you have anything to say?"
The general, who usually fought ruthlessly, now hesitated and looked very embarrassed.
Seeing the other party's reaction, Ziyou had a general idea in his mind.
Sure enough, what the other party said was the same as what he had guessed, "Miss Zi, His Majesty said... that you cannot use magic..."
Ziyou lowered her eyes and removed her protection. The rain flowed down her forehead to her chin, and slid onto the ground drop by drop. As if it was not enough, the rain grew heavier and heavier, and the water droplets kept sliding down her body. The once unattainable god fell into the human world and became a viewing point, open to everyone's criticism.
The soldiers around her could not bear to watch such a goddess. They turned their backs on her and drove away all the onlookers around them, in order to maintain her last bit of dignity.
Was the mistake I made this time so serious?
But she really couldn't remember what she did wrong.
The heavy rain washed away her body mercilessly, while on the other side, Eunuch Wang reported the situation to Nan Wanxing.
"Your Majesty, Emperor Bei Jing asked the goddess to withdraw her divine power and stand in the rain to reflect." As an outsider, he couldn't stand it anymore. Your Majesty couldn't be so heartless.
Sure enough, the other party's body stiffened a little when he heard this.
After a period of torment, Nan Wanxing stood up and walked into the rain.
When she finally arrived, all she saw was such a lonely figure. She wanted to go forward, but she was worried about something. Her irritability made her want to kill someone. Her eyes became redder and redder, mixed with a lot of hatred and vulnerability towards her own incompetence. She stood at the corner not far from Ziyou, threw away her umbrella, and got wet with her.
"Your Majesty, you..."
Eunuch Wang really didn't know what to say. It seemed that His Majesty had something to hide. He looked at the two of them worriedly, wondering when would this farce end.
The rain lasted for three days, and Nan Wanxing accompanied her in the rain for three days. After all, she was a mortal body, and even if her physique had been strengthened, she could not withstand such torment, and she finally fell ill.
Without Nan Wanxing's summons, no one could get close to the Star Bow. Eunuch Wang could only ask the imperial physician for help, but the effect was not very good and the other party was a little confused due to the fever.
If I go to invite the goddess now, will she come?
Eunuch Wang was extremely anxious.
Zi You sensed it, and finally raised his eyes after lowering them for many days, "General, can you tell His Majesty that I have to leave for a while and will be back soon."
The general was stunned for a moment when he suddenly heard the goddess calling him. After five days, the goddess finally opened her mouth to leave.
"Please wait a moment. I'll be there right away." He ran to His Majesty at the fastest speed in his life.
"No, if she insists on leaving, the punishment when she comes back will not be as simple as it is now." Emperor Bei Jing's ruthless words made the general feel a little unfair for her.
"Your Majesty, even if she acknowledged you as her father, you would never treat your daughter like this! You have always been kind and benevolent in ruling the world, why are you treating her like this now!"
Emperor Bei Jing did not vent his anger on him, "Go tell her."
The general clenched his fists, but could not change the current situation, so he had to tell the goddess tactfully.
After hearing this, Ziyou stood there, not knowing what to do.
She could only feel the changes in the little star from a distance. After an unknown amount of time, she felt that the other party's condition was getting worse and worse, and her eyes changed.
"General, I have to leave for a while and come back later to apologize to His Majesty." She said this without any emotion, making people feel for a moment that the noble goddess has returned.
