"Bitch...I'm going to kill you!"

Pei Xiao was panting heavily. He got up and tried to fight her desperately, but Chen Qingzhu grabbed him and strangled him.

The strong feeling of suffocation and pain made Pei Xiao struggle violently subconsciously. He tried his best to pry Chen Qingzhu's hands open, but he couldn't shake her at all.

His struggle was like an ant fighting a giant; it was useless.

But he still did not give up resisting.

Chen Qingzhu watched with interest for a while as he struggled to survive in his hands, and before he was about to die, he threw him back to the ground.

Pei Xiao gasped subconsciously. When he recovered a little, he immediately stared at Chen Qingzhu with hatred:

"Just kill me if you dare!"

Chen Qingzhu took out a handkerchief, wiped his hands, and threw it at Pei Xiao like garbage.

"If I wanted to kill you, I would have killed you long ago."

She said this softly, causing Pei Xiao to feel a little hope in his heart.

Yes, if she wanted to kill him, she would have done it long ago.

She didn't kill him, maybe because she couldn't bear to see him die...

However, Chen Qingzhu's next words broke his fantasy.

"Even Zhang had to be a slave in the Xinzheku for 25 years to atone for her sins, let alone you."

After saying this, she gave the order to the captain waiting in the tent:

"Throw Pei Xiao into prison and torture him every day, but don't let him die."

In her previous life, in order to appease the Zhang family's direct branch, Pei Xiao tortured her for seven days and seven nights and then beat her to death with sticks in front of the Zhang family's visitors.

Naturally, she would return this pain to Pei Xiao double.

The captain immediately ordered someone to cover Pei Xiao's mouth and drag him away.

Most of the Du'e Army were not good at torture, but there were many experts in interrogating spies in the original Liaodong Army.

They have plenty of ways to make people suffer immensely without dying.

In the following days, Pei Xiao deeply experienced what it meant to be unable to live or die.

At the beginning, he wanted to skin Chen Qingzhu alive and curse her every day.

But every time you open your eyes, you see all kinds of torture, and there is no end. Anyone would despair.

After five or six days, he could no longer bear it and just wanted to die quickly.

"Please, let me die! Kill me!"

"Tell the Goddess of Du'e that I can do anything I want. Let her kill me!"

He disregarded his dignity and began to beg, but no one paid any attention to him. He could only live in endless pain and despair every day.

Chen Qingzhu didn't pay much attention to Pei Xiao. Starting from the next day, she went to Shengdu City every day to kill two Hu princes. Apart from that, she stayed in the king's tent to practice.

The Du'e Army was also resting on the spot, waiting leisurely for the Hu tribe's reply.

In contrast to their calmness, the Hu princes lived in endless fear.

After Chen Qingzhu made the statement, the brothers, uncles, nephews and nieces of the Hu Khan all became frightened birds.

Those who were afraid of death immediately went to beg the Khan to agree to the conditions of the God of Du'e.

After being rejected, he could only return to his own residence and have someone protect him tightly.

However, even so, people were still killed.

Those killed on the first day were the Khan's most respected uncle and his highly trusted son.

Both of them were the only ones who advocated war.

The God of Du'e broke directly into the two people's house, cut off their heads with a sword, and then, as if he was in an empty place, threw the two heads with terrified faces in front of the Khan of the Hu tribe.

All of this proved to the Hu nobles and Khan in Beijing that she could kill them all at any time.

The Hu Khan originally wanted to fight a desperate battle.

However, after the head was thrown into the palace the next day, he had to agree to all the conditions of the God of Du'e.

Before the agreed fourth day, on the morning of the third day, he sent the fourth prince to the Du'e military camp to deliver a letter of surrender.

It's not that he is afraid of death.

But if they do not agree to the conditions of Lord Du'e, they may rebel and overthrow his rule before Lord Du'e can even let the Du'e army attack the city.

Not long after, the war in Liaodong ended with the Hu people completely withdrawing from the Wei territory and paying tribute to the God Du'e.

When the news reached the capital, the government and the people were all in ecstasy.

Especially those scholars who care about the government and worry about the country and the people, all used endless praises to praise the God of Du'e.

"When the king's army conquers the Central Plains in the north, do not forget to inform your father during the family sacrifice."

It was originally thought that it would take the blood of several generations to snatch back the Liaodong prefectures from the Hu people.

Who could have thought that after the dynasty changed its new master to Lord Du'e, the lost territory would be recovered in just over a month.

The Hu tribe, which had threatened the Wei Dynasty for more than three dynasties, was terrified and became its vassal and paid tribute.

Lord Du'e is indeed an omnipotent god!

Amidst the chorus of praises, April 21st finally arrived.

This was the auspicious day chosen by the Imperial Astronomical Observatory for the coronation ceremony.

The History of Xi states:

"In the 31st year of Yong'an, Emperor Taizu Chen Qingzhu destroyed Wei and beheaded the corrupt officials at the Meridian Gate.

On April 21, Taizu established the country and proclaimed himself emperor. The country was named "Xi", which means bright and prosperous. The reign was named "Shenqi", and the subjects respectfully called him "Your Majesty the Divine Emperor".

On April 21st, it was a beautiful spring day with bright sunshine and a clear sky without a single cloud.

After Chen Qingzhu went to the Temple of Heaven to offer sacrifices to heaven and earth, he took the grand imperial chariot, escorted by flags flying, through the straight road and returned to the palace.

Along the way, countless people lined the streets to welcome them.

Wherever the chariot and procession passed, the people knelt down and kowtowed spontaneously:

"The Divine Emperor has an infinite life span and will enjoy eternal happiness!"

"Long live the Divine Emperor!"

The thunderous cheers, filled with ordinary people's gratitude, respect, and worship for the God Du'e, resounded throughout the capital.

Chen Qingzhu returned to the palace, wearing the emperor's crown and robes. Amidst the solemn ceremony and music, he walked steadily towards the dragon throne, lifted his wide sleeves, and sat down.

Civil and military officials entered the Danchi to pay homage to the new ruler of the dynasty, accompanied by the singing of ceremonial officials.

The grand coronation ceremony ended successfully in a peaceful and festive atmosphere.

After the coronation ceremony, Chen Qingzhu took out the imperial edict that had been prepared long ago to appoint the crown prince and handed it to the ceremonial officer.
