Chapter 262: Offering everything to pray for the Governor's forgiveness
The king of a country, naked to the waist and tightly bound, knelt in front of Gu Hang and honestly stated his crimes.
It's really a crime.
Ness Luhmann had always known that it would be useless to just kidnap himself or Gu Ming to confess.
Did he sincerely admit his mistake?
It's not like he was beaten until he was at the end of his rope and there was nothing he could do about it.
Even if he didn't come to admit this crime and make this gesture, the final outcome would be similar.
It's better to be more thorough.
This is very humiliating, not as heroic as dying in the palace.He also thought about whether to give this country and the Luman family a king who died in battle, which would be considered an ending.
But he was not reconciled.
It has been more than twenty years since he succeeded to the throne of king.I still remember that when he just took over the crown from his brother, it was the time when the Luman family was at its most precarious. At that time, he was only 14 years old.
In the past 20 years, he has worked hard to win over, suppress, conspire, and conspire... When necessary, he has not lacked the courage and bravery to go into battle himself.
Thanks to his efforts, the Luman family has regained its former glory in just 20 years.The centralization of power he implemented not only concentrated most of the country's power, but also left two powerful aristocrats, overwhelming them.
Give him some more time, and he may be able to follow the path of the past to disintegrate the power of the two powerful marquises and truly complete the unification of the entire kingdom.
In the last King's Council, he attracted allies and showed his muscles, and won the Luman Kingdom to assume the position of governor of the Black Arrow Star in this period.
Suddenly, he was the most popular person on the Black Arrow Star!
The entire kingdom seemed to be at its peak.
Some kings, after leading their country to prosperity, will indulge in enjoyment and live a luxurious life; some kings will develop greater ambitions.
Ness Luhmann was the latter.
He did not think this was a bad thing. On the contrary, he often preached this to his loyal ministers.
With his ambitions high, he also gradually clarified the direction of his ambition: to hold on to the authority of the Governor of Black Arrow Star for a long time, and then use this authority to gradually conquer the remaining countries.
This is difficult and will take a long time. It may take his entire life or even his successors to accomplish it.
He originally thought that he would be stoic and slowly and firmly implement his ambitions.
However, a huge opportunity soon appeared in front of him: Gu Ming came to find him.
As long as he cooperates with Gu Ming and helps him take over the position of head of the Gu family, Gu Ming will, in turn, fully support his ambitions with the Gu family's business channels and abundant financial resources.
After several hesitations, he finally made up his mind to get rich.
He couldn't wait any longer. He was already the resurgence leader of the Luman Kingdom, and had brought this precarious kingdom back on track, and even made it prosperous for ten years.He is still young, and he can go further. If possible, he hopes to accomplish his biggest goal in his lifetime, while he is still energetic and in his prime, and create an eternal dynasty for the Luman family, and even To become the greatest monarch in the history of the entire Black Arrow Star!
then...
That's it.
He spent 20 years working hard to bring the country to prosperity and strengthen the central group. The capital he gradually accumulated was lost in one fell swoop.
All his ambitions, all his plans, all his dignity were completely shattered.
And all this was thanks to the man in front of him who just held up a bench and sat casually in front of him in the simple command post.
Gu Hang.
He remembered this name deeply.
Now, he no longer needs dignity or ambition.
Just like this, in front of some specially summoned senior officials of the Luman Kingdom who were still alive, as well as the apostles sent by the two marquises from the south, he knelt down in front of Gu Hang, naked and bound, and expressed himself in the most humble manner. attitude and confessed his guilt.He could notice that the people watching had different expressions.
Those who feel sad, those who feel humiliated or even resentful, those who are frightened, those who are thoughtful...
But he couldn't control that much. He, his family, and his country all depended on Gu Hang's thoughts.
All he can do is pray:
"...I am willing to dedicate the entire Luman Kingdom, all its wealth, all its territory, and all its subjects to beg for forgiveness from Governor Gu Hang. I can also give my life to you as compensation. If you are willing, I can I serve you as my lord and will serve you for the rest of my life and guard the Luman Kingdom. If you are not willing to spare my life, you can kill me and hang my head on the top of the city in public. The descendants of the Luman family will never resent you. You can choose one of the remaining people to manage this country for you..."
His words were extremely humble, and he almost surrendered unconditionally.
He didn't dare to negotiate any conditions. He just hoped to pray to Gu Hang for a chance to survive after surrendering unconditionally.
Even if he doesn't survive, the next best thing is to keep the Luhmann family.
After saying this, he knocked his head heavily on the ground.
He worked so hard that he felt dizzy. The gravel on the ground even scratched his scalp, and blood spread from the place where he kowtowed.
Everything that can be said and done has been accomplished.
Just waiting for the final blow.
His scalp was pressed against the ground, and after what seemed like a century, he finally heard a chuckle.
Governor Gu Hang spoke:
"It's also interesting, you look up."
He was overjoyed!
What he feared most did not happen. Governor Gu gave him a chance to continue speaking.
He raised his head and looked at Gu Hang, only to see a faint blue light appear in Gu Hang's eyes.
His vision suddenly became blurry, and he didn't know whether he was fainting from kowtow or something.
Suddenly, he felt like he was in a special place.
Everything you see here is desolate; the sky here is covered with dark clouds, with lightning and thunder;
In the middle of the barren land, there is an unfinished temple that is under construction.A group of heroic spirits covered in blue shouted slogans with high morale and worked hard.
This is... where?
"This is my kingdom of God." Gu Hang's voice came from behind him.
He turned his head suddenly, looking horrified!
At this point, how can he still maintain the sincerity in his performance?
Now he only feels panic!
How is this going?
The smile on Gu Hang's face was gentle: "I was really moved by King Luman's heartfelt speech just now. Since you are so sincere, of course I will give you a chance to serve me..."
As he spoke, a spiritual power completely surrounded him.
"No, no, no!!!"
Gu Hang's face was still smiling: "I don't want to regret it."
