Translator: Atlas Studios | Editor: Atlas Studios
Bai Wutong actually wanted to be the emperor!
Everyone held their breaths as soon as she said that.
Qingfeng knelt down without hesitation. “I’m loyal to Your Majesty!
All the dark guards of the Dark Guards Team knelt down. “We are loyal to Your Majesty!”
From the beginning to the end, they had only been serving Bai Wutong. qingfeng’s words shocked everyone. In their minds, they could accept a woman deciding everything, but they did not dare to accept a woman to become the
Great Empress above everyone.
If a woman became the emperor, what were men like them?
Lin Yue looked at Stinky and then at Qingfeng. Sheng Huaixuan suddenly knelt down. “I’m willing to be loyal to you.”
Bai Wutong was Stinky’s G.o.dmother. She had saved Stinky and had long formed an unbreakable affinity with the Sheng family. Apart from Ba. Wutong, probably no one would really take the businessmen seriously.
Lin Yue was delighted and hurriedly knelt down.
Since Sheng Huaixuan had bowed down, the servants Sheng Huaixuan had brought and the servants he had bought had no choice but to kneel.
With a whoosh, a huge dent appeared in the crowd.
Ah Duo shouted happily, “I support you!
She expressed her stance to her clansmen in tribal language, and the clansmen immediately shouted with her in their broken Chinese, “We support you!!!”
Other people looked down on women, but Ah Duo did not have these concerns. She felt that Bai Wutong was the smartest and most capable woman in this world. She said excitedly, “If they don’t want you to be the emperor, you can follow us. 1’11 let you become the leader of our tribe. If you want the entire southern frontier, we can also fight for you!”
The clans outside Carefree City were originally one. If Bai Wutong really brought her people to join Ah Duo’s Tribe and became the tribe leader, Ah Mi’s Tribe would definitely not be able to resist.
Moreover, compared to these Central Plains people who discriminated against them, it was naturally better to follow Bai Wutong.
Ah Mi immediately expressed his stance. “1 can also make you the tribe leader!”
Ah Duo glared at Ah Mi and warned him not to s.n.a.t.c.h from her.
You Huaijie was a dark guard arranged by Bai Wutong. He followed closely behind. “I’m willing to pledge my loyalty to Madam Bai!”
You Huaijie, who had won the hearts of the people, knelt down. The soldiers looked at each other and knelt down hesitantly.
If Bai Wutong took all these people away, how could they have a good life in the future? Especially the villagers of Zhao farmyard, they had been following Bai Wutong from the beginning.
They were overjoyed that Bai Wutong wanted to be the Great Empress. They knelt down more quickly than anyone else.
When the hesitant commoners saw that everyone was kneeling, they hurriedly knelt down, afraid that Bai Wutong would note them down if they knelt too late.
For a moment, more than half of the crowd knelt.
Most of the remaining people were scholars.
The influence of a thousand years of conservative mindset was not only limited to women, but also men.
They were extremely resistant to Bai Wutong wanting to become the Great Empress.
However, they had to admit that Bai Wutong had the ability to control the situation.
Apart from the 30 families of Qinghe, everyone in Youjia Village had knelt down.
They were all waiting for Yang Quanzi to express his stance.
If Yang Quanzi knelt, they would accept it.
In any case, in the short span of three years, the emperor had already been replaced twice. If this person was Bai Wutong, it did not seem unacceptable.
Almost three-quarters of the people were kneeling!
With Bai Wutong’s momentum, Fan Gao shouted at the frowning Yang Quanzi, -She’s a woman! You’re rebelling if you do this and will be beheaded!”
The moment Yang Quanzi raised his eyelids, Cui Lingyi also knelt down. Her eyes were burning with vitality and majesty. “Even if it’s a rebellion, I’m willing to fight on the battlefield!”
If not for Bai Wutong, there would be no point in surviving if she returned to the life where women were only worthy of staying in the backyard!
It was better to turn into smoke and disperse with the rivers, mountains, and seas.
Cui Lingyi’s gentle and weak image contrasted strongly with her powerful words, igniting the blood of the female students.
The female students shouted crisply, “We’re willing too!”
If their teacher could, Qingfeng could, and so could they!
Weak girls and simple commoners still had the power to choose a virtuous ruler.
As a longstanding fan of Bai Wutong, why didn’t Yang Quanzi kneel?! He stood up and bowed deeply to Bai Wutong. He lifted the robe at his waist and suddenly knelt down. “I’m not kneeling to a woman or a man. I’m kneeling to a wise ruler who is thinking for the people!”
The indifference to women that had existed for a thousand years seemed to have collapsed heavily at this moment.
All the teachers of the 30 families of Qinghe knelt down.
Witnessing the scene in front of them, for some reason, the women felt a lump in their throats and their hearts surged with excitement.
Everyone expressed their submission to Bai Wutong. Fan Gao scolded angrily, “You’re all crazy! Crazy!”
Bai Wutong had no intention of becoming the Great Empress previously. Qn second thought, if Chu Tianbao returned to the southern frontier and Emperor Linghui sent someone over to forcefully take over the southern frontier and asked Chu Tianbao and n.o.ble Consort Ling to return to the Imperial City, what should she do?
Fan Gao had reminded her that it was better to completely control the entire southern border. If Emperor Linghui wanted to fight a war, with oil, iron, ores, and coal to produce firearms, there was no need for them to fear that they would not be able to win. If she wanted to take down the entire Ling Kingdom, Bai Wutong believed that as long as she was given five years, she could take down the throne that Chu Shixiong had plotted for half of his life.
Bai Wutong’s determined gaze was astonishing. “Thank you for your support. Our Carefree City will officially be called Carefree Kingdom today.”
Fan Gao’s heart was beating violently, but he still could not believe it. “You’re rebelling!”
Bai Wutong suddenly smiled evilly and stroked her stomach twice. “Isn’t Emperor Linghui also rebelling?”
“Now that the Carefree Kingdom has been established, I’m sorry but to let Mr. Fan Gao suffer a little in the cell.”
Chu Tianbao was probably on the way back. At this moment, she could not let anything leak out.
Fan Gao was already advanced in years. The simple cell was leaking air on all sides. Yang Quanzi wanted to say a few words for him, but after thinking about it, he did not say anything.
Since Bai Wutong did not kill him, it meant that there was still room for negotiation. When Fan Gao calmed down, he would help him plead about it later.
Fan Gao and his disciples were dragged away, and the scene fell silent again. Huang Zhong’s heart twitched. He wondered if the history books would record the reason why Bai Wutong suddenly wanted to ascend to the throne. It was all because he was wearing a strange short shirt and shorts.
The outcome had been decided. Cui Shize knelt down and stepped forward. “Your Majesty, please decide on the coronation date as soon as possible.
in the past dynasties, the coronation ceremony was extremely important. It also symbolized the will of the people and the ownership of the imperial power.
Bai Wutong did not refuse. “The eighth day of the next month is a good day. There’s no need to make a big deal out of it. Just a simple greeting and report your job!”
Cui Shize replied, “Yes, Your Majesty! Long live our emperor!”
The commoners kowtowed like Cui Shize and bowed properly. “Long live our emperor!”
Fortunately, Bai Wutong had watched many television dramas and had even watched the live version with the production team. She was not afraid at all that she had suddenly become the Great Empress. “Rise.”
In everyone’s eyes, she was calm and composed.
After the commoners bowed, they realized that they had become citizens of the Imperial City under the emperor’s feet. They looked at each other and felt like they were in a dream..
