I'm just a peach

Chapter 380 Father is Right

For a while, no one dared to speak, but just lowered their heads and waited for an early bird to stand up.

And this outstanding bird is naturally King Qin's deadly enemy - Qin Shujun.

Sure enough, Qin Shujun said, "Your Majesty, I know that you don't want to part with this monster, but she is a monster after all and cannot stay in the palace. How about using her to control the flood?"

"Treating floods?"

"Yes, I went to ask the national teacher recently. According to the national teacher, the floods have been continuous in the past few years. It is because of angering the Dragon King that the people were punished. As long as a living person is sacrificed and dedicated to the Dragon King, it will be fine. Keep one side safe."

I don't know whether Qin Shujun's words were made up indiscriminately, or if the national teacher really said such words.Whether it's true or not, the meaning of his words couldn't be clearer, that is to kill Taotao!
King Qin's eyes froze: "Nonsense! Uncle also believes such absurd words?"

"Your majesty, I believe that it is better to believe what is true or not. Since we have caught a monster, we should sacrifice her. If it is fake, we can deal with the floods sooner. If it is true, we can sacrifice a monster for the sake of the people." The peace of the world, why not do it?"

Qin Shujun's every sentence was so pressing that it made people powerless to refute.

King Qin opened his mouth: "Whether it's a human or a monster, life is equal. Since no human life was hurt, I can't use her as a sacrifice!"

"Didn't hurt anyone's life?" Qin Shujun sneered, and suddenly reached out to grab King Qin's arm, and pulled his sleeve away!
It was too late for King Qin to stop him, he just watched the scar on his wrist exposed in front of everyone!
"Your Majesty, this monster is responsible for this injury, right? If she dares to hurt the Emperor today, she will dare to hurt all the people tomorrow! Please think about the overall situation and stop hurting the hearts of the people because of this monster!"

He flirted with Prime Minister Wang, and Prime Minister Wang kowtowed knowingly, and shouted loudly: "Please sacrifice the monster!"

"The emperor please sacrifice the monster!"

The ministers kowtowed in unison, King Qin swayed, his eyes fixed on Taotao's face.

Tao Tao smiled at him and nodded.

King Qin let out a sigh of relief, sat down on the dragon chair, and said slowly after a while: "In that case...Zuzao."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

He held the dragon chair tightly with his hand, afraid that if he had a flash, he would rush over and grab Taotao's hand regardless.

Seeing Taotao's back step by step towards the distance, King Qin's heart ached, but he could only sit on that high seat, and he didn't even have the courage to grab her hand.

Father is right, this position is too cold and terrifying.

Blindfolded by a black cloth, Taotao got into the carriage with the support of the maid.

The carriage wobbled for an unknown amount of time. Except for a break in the middle where she was untied for a meal, the rest of the time, she was in a situation where day and night were unknown.

I don't know how long it lasted like this, it took about half a month before they arrived in Luoyang.

In the past few years, Luoyang has experienced frequent floods, and almost half of the houses have been flooded.

Ever since the imperial court said that they wanted someone to offer sacrifices, the people in Luoyang have been looking forward to it almost every day. When they saw the carriage carrying Taotao arrive at the gate of Luoyang city, the people raised their hands to welcome them. smile.

When it is a matter of life and death, a person's life is already insignificant, they can't think about what sacrifice means, they only know that they can live.

In the face of life and death, sympathy is the most powerless.

There was a sudden light in front of her eyes, Taotao closed her eyes subconsciously, and there were noisy voices in her ears, Taotao slowly opened her eyes, and met smiling faces one after another.
