Starting from the Planetary Governor - Chapter 263
263. Chapter 262, I offer everything and beg for forgiveness from the Governor
The king of a country, n*ked upper body, tied tightly, kneeled in front of Gu Hang, and honestly narrated his crimes word by word.
It was really a crime.
Ness Luhman has always known that it is useless to just tie himself and Gu Ming up to confess. Is
he really admitting his fault?
It’s just that he was beaten to the point of being penniless.
Even if he didn’t come to confess this crime and didn’t make this gesture, the final outcome would be similar.
It’s better to do it thoroughly.
This is very humiliating, not as heroic as dying in the palace. He also thought about whether to leave a king who died on the battlefield for this country and their Luhman family, which is also an ending.
But he was unwilling.
He has inherited the throne for more than 20 years. I still remember that when he just took over the crown from his brother, it was the most precarious time for the Luhman family. At that time, he was only fourteen years old.
In the past twenty years, he has been working hard to win over, suppress, plot, and plot… When necessary, he is not short of courage and bravery to fight in person.
And with his efforts, the Luman family has regained its glory in just twenty years from the time when it was in turmoil. The centralization he implemented not only concentrated most of the country’s power, but also put pressure on the remaining two powerful nobles.
If he is given some more time, he may be able to follow the past path to disintegrate the power of the two powerful marquises and truly unify the entire kingdom.
He also pulled allies and flexed his muscles in the last King’s Council, and won the Luman Kingdom to serve as the governor of Black Arrow Star this time.
For a while, on Black Arrow Star, he was the most popular!
Even the entire kingdom seemed to have entered its heyday.
Some kings, after leading the country to prosperity, will indulge in enjoyment and live a luxurious life; some kings will breed greater ambitions.
Ness Luman is the latter.
He did not think this was a bad thing. On the contrary, he often preached this to his loyal ministers.
In addition to being satisfied with his ambition, he gradually clarified the direction of his ambition: to grasp the power of the Governor of Black Arrow Star for a long time, and then use this power to gradually conquer the remaining countries.
This is difficult and will take a long time. Perhaps it will take his whole life or even his successor to do it.
He originally thought that he would be perseverant and slowly and firmly implement his ambitions.
However, soon a huge opportunity was presented to him: Gu Ming came.
As long as he cooperated with Gu Ming and helped him to master the position of the head of the Gu family, then in turn Gu Ming would fully support his ambitions with the trade channels and abundant financial resources of the Gu family.
After several hesitations, he finally made up his mind to fight for this great wealth.
He couldn’t wait. He was already the lord of the revival of the Kingdom of Luman, and brought this precarious kingdom back on track, and even embarked on a decade of prosperity. He was still young, and he could go further. If possible, he hoped to achieve the biggest goal in his heart during his lifetime, when he was still energetic and in his prime, to create a dynasty for the Luman family, and even become the greatest monarch in the history of the entire Black Arrow Star!
And then…
it became like this.
He spent twenty years working hard to make the country strong and strengthen the central group, and the capital he gradually accumulated was lost in one day.
All his ambitions, all his plans, and all his dignity were completely shattered.
And all of this was thanks to the man in front of him who just brought a bench and sat casually in front of him in the simple command post.
Gu Hang.
He remembered this name deeply.
Now, he didn’t want dignity or ambition.
In front of some specially called and still alive senior officials of the Luman Kingdom, as well as the apostles sent by the two marquises in the south, he knelt in front of Gu Hang with his upper body n*ked and tied himself up, and confessed his crimes in the most humble manner.
He could sense that the people watching had different expressions.
Some were sympathetic, some felt humiliated or even angry, some were panic-stricken, some were thoughtful…
But he couldn’t care less. He, his family, and his country all depended on Gu Hang’s thoughts. All
he could do was pray:
“… I am willing to offer the entire Luman Kingdom, all its wealth, all its territory, and all its subjects, to Governor Gu Hang for forgiveness. My life can also be given to you as compensation. If you are willing, I can serve you as my master, serve you for the rest of my life, and guard the Luman Kingdom; if you don’t want to spare my life, you can kill me and hang my head on the city wall for public display. The descendants of the Luman family will never resent it. You can choose one of the remaining people to manage this country for you…”
His words were already extremely humble, and he almost surrendered unconditionally.
He didn’t dare to talk about any conditions. He just hoped to pray to Gu Hang for a chance to live after unconditional surrender.
Even if he couldn’t survive, he could settle for the next best thing and save the Luman family.
After saying this, he knocked his head heavily on the ground.
He knocked so hard that he felt dizzy, and even the gravel on the ground scratched his scalp. Blood spread from where he knocked his head. He
had done everything he could say and do. He
was just waiting for the final decision.
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 interesting too, look up.”
He was overjoyed!
The situation he feared the most did not happen, and Governor Gu gave him the opportunity to continue speaking.
He raised his head and looked at Gu Hang, but saw a faint blue light in Gu Hang’s eyes.
His sight suddenly became very confused, and he didn’t know if he was dizzy from knocking his head or what.
In a trance, he felt that he had come to a special place.
All that meets the eye here is desolation; the sky here is covered with dark clouds, lightning and thunder;
in the middle of the desolate land, there is an unfinished temple that is under construction. A group of heroes dressed in blue, shouting slogans with high morale, working hard.
Where is this…?
“This is my kingdom of God.” Gu Hang’s voice came from behind him.
He turned his head suddenly, his expression horrified!
At this time, how can he still maintain the sincere attitude he performed?
Now he is only terrified!
What’s going on?
Gu Hang had a gentle smile on his face: “Just now, King Luman’s heartfelt speech really moved me. Since you are so sincere, then of course I will give you a chance to work for me…”
As he spoke, a psychic force completely surrounded him.
“No, no, no!!!”
Gu Hang still had a smile on his face: “You can’t regret it.”
