Finale: The dust settles
"What else?"
It seemed that the Heavenly Dao was so angry that it had no other options.
"Do you really think we are so ignorant and stupid that we can't tell right from wrong?"
"You saved so many children!"
"You also performed great service in rescuing the snowstorm in Yingzhou. Many people have taken the initiative to build a temple for you!"
"Aren't you worthy of ascending?"
This time Su Tan was really stunned.
She originally thought that she would definitely die and be punished, and the entire Xuanmen would suffer as well.
Unexpectedly, there was an unexpected surprise, I was able to successfully ascend!
Su Tan stopped being pretentious and immediately asked Lu Zhiheng to let go of his hand.
Thunderbolts fell on Su Tan one after another.
It should be painful.
But the light of merit formed a small halo on her body, so that Su Tan did not feel much pain.
When the last thunderbolt struck him, Su Tan had already successfully ascended to the ninth heaven.
If a mortal successfully ascends to heaven, one of his wishes can be fulfilled.
The Emperor asked Su Tan what he wanted.
The Emperor of Heaven saw everything she had experienced in the mortal world. The gods were also looking at Su Tan at this moment, just waiting for her to say that she wanted Changle to be resurrected.
Who knew that Su Tan lowered his eyes and asked, "If I want all the children who died because of Emperor Qinglong to be alive, can you agree to it?"
At this moment, she no longer had the hostility she had before, but instead exuded a faint glow.
The Emperor of Heaven was deeply surprised by this answer.
"Hasn't your obsession all along been to bring your daughter back to life?"
Su Tan just smiled faintly and held the jade flute that had always been hanging around his waist.
She blew gently and seemed to hear a distant echo.
"Before I ascended, I had a dream. I dreamed that Changle told me that if I could really ascend successfully, please tell me to make sure those children come back to life."
"She said she came to this world and she didn't want to see so many poor children die innocently again."
Changle is not just Changle, Changle is also a microcosm of many baby girls.
Su Tan may not be a competent mother, and has never been a good mother.
But between her own obsession and Changle's wish, she finally took a step back and chose to fulfill Changle's wish.
Changle said that she was not completely dead, and her soul would live forever among the gods. When Su Tan missed her, he would just blow the jade flute. If he heard the distant echo, it would prove that Changle also felt her longing.
The Emperor looked at Su Tan with a complicated expression, but finally nodded. "Originally, such a request is unreasonable. However, besides legal principles, there are also human feelings."
After all, those children were too pitiful. They became corpses at such a young age.
Unfortunately, the dead cannot be resurrected, so they cannot interfere too much. But now Su Tan is willing to make a wish for them, and the Emperor of Heaven will naturally not be unwilling as he walks down the stairs.
…
The first thing Lu Zhiheng did when he ascended the throne was to make Emperor Qinglong's crimes public.
Emperor Qinglong was almost nailed to the pillar of shame, and his body was hung on the city wall to be exposed to the sun for three days.
Countless people threw rotten eggs, rotten vegetable leaves, and smelly stones on his body.
But the curses could not stop the crying.
The cries became louder and louder, but as they continued crying, the people who had lost their children seemed to hear a tentative cry of "Dad, Mom."
Everyone turned around mechanically, only to see their child, whose body had long been mutilated, standing in front of them intact.
The people were stunned.
But the next moment they rushed over and hugged their children and cried bitterly.
It is truly a wonder that people can come back to life after death.
A greater wonder is yet to come, with colorful clouds rolling in the sky.
Su Tan came riding on auspicious clouds and stood with the Emperor of Heaven.
The Emperor of Heaven told everyone the truth.
The people all over the world kowtowed to Su Tan again and again.
Only Xiao Ni was standing in the market with a confused look on her face, trying to find her grandma, but she couldn't find her.
Instead, a pair of gentle hands embraced her shoulders.
"You are Xiaoni, right?"
"Your grandma told me before she passed away that she asked me to take good care of you."
"Don't be afraid, the Su family will be your home from now on."
Gu Mingzhu looked gentle and used a handkerchief to wipe the tears from Xiaoni's face.
Her son, Hong Ge'er, now looked like a grown-up. He patted his chest and said to Xiao Ni, "Don't be afraid. I will be your big brother from now on. I will protect you and will never let anyone bully you again!"
When he said this, Xiao Ni couldn't help but burst into tears.
"My grandma...my grandma can't survive!"
She knew that being able to survive was a luxury, but she couldn't help but naively wish that her grandmother could come back to life.
Gu Mingzhu sighed and comforted her, "Xiao Ni, your grandma has passed away. There's nothing we can do about it."
"Even the gods cannot forcibly change a person's lifespan. Those children, including you, all died in unnatural ways. They originally had extremely long lifespans."
But Xiaoni's grandmother is dead.
"But don't worry, your grandma is now buried in our Su family's ancestral tomb. Her tablet is also placed in the Su family. If you miss her, you can talk to her anytime."
Xiao Ni looked at her blankly.
He looked up at the sky in a daze again.
Seeing Su Tan's compassionate expression, she finally couldn't help but sob again.
…
A day in heaven is a year on earth.
If there is anything interesting in this world, it is that after Lu Zhiheng ascended the throne, he did not rush to expand his family and enrich his harem.
More than ten years have passed. The former Princess Chaoyang, now the Princess Protector of the Country, has grown up. She is very experienced in handling affairs and has great talent in the mystical arts.
Lu Zhiheng has never married.
When others asked him why, he simply said that the intrigues and deceptions in the palace in the past had left a deep psychological trauma on him, so he no longer wanted to fill his harem.
He doesn't need so many children, just one like Suisui is enough.
Every year he will be able to manage this country well.
However, some people speculate that the reason why His Majesty has not appointed a queen for many years is because the person he loves has already ascended to become a god, and is like the bright moon on the high platform that he cannot touch.
Your Majesty, there is an unattainable person in your heart.
No one else can enter his heart anymore.
Others said that it was because the emperor had a hidden illness and could not have children at all.
There are many different rumors about why he did not have a queen.
There has been no definitive answer for many years.
Even when he handed over the country to Sui Sui before his death, when Sui Sui asked him the reason, he just smiled faintly and closed his eyes.
"Sui Sui, this is other people's business. From now on, you have to take care of yourself. Father has handed the country over to you. You have to take good care of the road ahead."
Sui Sui's eyes were wet.
She remembered that when Su Tan ascended to heaven, he also told her about the road ahead and that she should walk it well.
Suisui lowered her eyes and shed a tear in front of Lu Zhiheng.
"Don't worry, Father. I will govern this country well and will never let you down."
As she spoke, she raised her head and looked towards the sky above the high wall. "Fairy sister, I won't let you down either."
(Finally finished writing, thank you babies for your company all the time, I wish you good fortune every day)
