Beauty and the Bodyguard

Chapter 11179: Chapter 11178: The Battle of the Three Kingdoms!

You’re just a f * cking beggar from another city. What right do you have to be here?

Lin Yi said indifferently.

The King of Chu sneered,”Are you pretending to be dead when things come to this?” Little bastard, if you want to pretend to be dead to avoid this kind of thing, then this king can tell you clearly that you’re thinking too much.”

” This King is indeed a big shot, but unfortunately, nonsense like Your Excellency’s magnanimity has never suited This King.”

“You might as well ask them. This King is famous for taking revenge for the smallest grievance!”

“The law calamity isn’t over yet, is it?”

Everyone was stunned.

“It’s not over yet? Are you sure?”

King Chu scoffed,”There’s a saying that no one has taught you, right?” If you lose, you have to admit it. If you get beaten, you have to stand at attention!”

” If you were a little more bachelor-like, this king would still think highly of you. Now that you are about to die, you are still dawdling. This really makes people look down on you. Not only are you not a figure, you are not even a man!”

All the officials in the court looked at him with disdain.

Even the emperor, who sat on the throne, could not help but feel disappointed.

He wasn’t disappointed that Lin Yi didn’t admit defeat, but that Lin Yi still lost!

Even he himself knew very well that the Hundred Seedlings Plan was personally led by the seven kings and gathered all the main forces of the Inner Court. The possibility of failure was really low.

However, as the Son of Heaven, he still couldn’t help but want to see the seven kings set off fireworks!

Unfortunately, he still couldn’t get what he wanted.

“Men!” King Chu immediately shouted. Drag this bastard down and throw him into the imperial prison!”

Everyone looked at him, but the emperor dared not say anything.

More importantly, the imperial guards were supposed to be completely loyal to the emperor, but they were actually obeying King Chu’s orders so openly. A group of imperial guards walked towards Lin Yi with killing intent.

” You little punk,” Lord Chu said faintly.” You can resist all you want, but what does it mean to resist the Imperial Army? No matter how stupid you are, you should be able to understand, right?”

To oppose the Imperial Army was to oppose the entire Inner Court.

Lin Yi wouldn’t be able to withstand such a big hat no matter how tough his neck was.

Everyone was waiting for Lin Yi’s reaction.

Before Lin Yi could respond, everyone was stunned.

The thirty-second person, one of the hundred great stars, had exploded!

The entire process happened without warning. Before anyone could react, Lord Chu’s face, which had been in a good situation just a moment ago, darkened on the spot.

Number 32 was the core rule of the Chu royal residence.

“The great tribulation of the laws is really not over?”

This time, it wasn’t just the victim, King Chu, who was injured. Even the seven kings and all the great dukes became nervous.

Since Number Thirty-Two would explode, it meant that the remaining hundred rules were not safe either.

“I hope it’s just an exception…”

Everyone’s attention was completely diverted away from Lin Yi.

Lin Yi’s excitement couldn’t compare to their own core interests.

However, everyone’s luck was quickly shattered. The self-destruction of Rule No. 32 was just the beginning of today’s grand fireworks.

Immediately after, number fifteen, number sixty-two, number eighty-one…

More and more of the 100 Laws self-destructed one after another, illuminating the entire starry sky with incomparable splendor. At the same time, the faces of the dukes led by the seven kings turned ashen just like King Chu.

These were all their core assets. If any of them exploded, it would mean that a great duke would go bankrupt.

At the very least, it would hurt his bones.

Unknowingly, the atmosphere became extremely heavy.

Looking at the seven kings acting as if they were facing a great enemy, the emperor wanted to laugh but did not dare to.

In fact, he didn’t dare to show any emotion at such a time. Otherwise, if the seven kings caught him red-handed and asked him why His Majesty was laughing, he wouldn’t be able to get off the stage.

On the contrary, the emperor had to show the same grief, or even more grief than the seven kings.

This was the only way to avoid getting into trouble.

Fortunately, the emperor was already familiar with this.

As Tian Zi, he was far from outstanding in other aspects, but his talent in acting was actually not bad.

At least when he wanted to perform, even the seven kings would find it difficult to find any substantial flaws.

The grand fireworks show continued.

With the full support of the Hundred Seedlings Plan, many people were still hoping that even if some of the Hundred Edicts were destroyed, it would not be too much. At most, it would be one-tenth.

However, a wave of thirty consecutive explosions immediately followed!

Puff!

Lord Chu spat out a mouthful of black blood and fell to the ground.

The dukes present looked at each other, but they couldn’t gloat this scene. Instead, they all mourned for the death of the rabbit.

The seven core rules of the Chu royal family had all exploded!

Thinking about it, no matter who was in King Chu’s position, they probably wouldn’t be able to hold on.

King Chu would never have thought that this calamity of the rules was supposed to be a godsend opportunity for his Chu royal residence to expand. In the end, all seven core rules were wiped out!

This was the most important foundation of his Chu royal residence!

The destruction of the core precepts meant that the Chu royal family, which was powerful enough to rank in the top three of the seven royal families and was second only to King Qin’s residence to a certain extent, had directly withdrawn from the ranks of the first-tier royal families and was reduced to a level that could only be compared to King Han’s residence.

To the Chu royal family, this was a devastating blow!

To top dukes like the seven kings, the core rules were not just a heavyweight asset that could earn tens of thousands of gold every day. They were also the most important cornerstone for the future of a prefecture!

Especially after the great tribulation of laws.

The surviving core rules would be able to rapidly expand and widen the gap between them and all other important assets.

Even if there were rules to be rebuilt, anyone with discerning eyes could see that no matter how much resources the Inner Court poured in, it would never be able to catch up to the core rules that survived. The gap between them would only widen and not shrink.

These core rules would become the moat between the top dukes and the ordinary dukes.

They were the sharpest sickles of the Inner Court.

No matter how many leeks were cultivated by the Inner Court, they would always be the first to harvest, and they would always be the one who took the largest share.

Unless there was another catastrophe like the Great Calamity of the Laws that overturned the overall structure of the Inner Court, everyone below was destined to work for them forever.

Under such circumstances, the Chu royal residence had lost all seven core rules. What this meant was self-evident.

From this moment on, in the eyes of all the powerful figures, the Chu royal residence had already withdrawn from the ranks of the top powers.
