I Wanna Be An Online Celebrity Chapter 90 Clear The Mind

The sudden death of Lengmei surprised everyone in the room. Watching she fall from the high platform made everyone feel shocked. There were many doubts about her death since she committed suicide before the emperor could give an order.

Although Lengmei looked very desperate on the altar, how could she admit defeat with her sinister character? Even if Chu Tiankuo ordered to execute her, she would undoubtedly strive for mercy.

Lengmei was unyielding, so she would rather be wronged at this time, obeying and begging for mercy, and then revenge in the future. She would never dig a grave and jump into it.

Every time she got into trouble, Lengmei would try everything to escape from the dilemma. With her wisdom, she could surely frame somebody and then retreat perfectly. But obviously, this time, something had gone wrong.

When people saw Lengmei fall heavily to the ground from the high platform, they were scared, screaming without warning. When the b.l.o.o.d.y body of Lengmei showed in front of them, the scene instantly became chaos.

Some people screamed, covering their eyes; some people gathered together to talk, and some people fled—the scene was very chaotic and b.l.o.o.d.y.

At this time, Chu Tiankuo and Tang Xia, who did not expect this to happen, were astonished, and both of them widened their eyes at the same time.

Tang Xia, who was the party to this incident, although she was indeed innocent, never imagined that Lengmei would be executed.

After Lengmei framed her again and again, Tang Xia certainly hated her guts. However, she knew that it was just a story in this live room, and she didn't take it seriously. Therefore, there was no need to have someone die for this.

If Lengmei had been executed by Chu Tiankuo publicly because she used her fake pregnancy to frame Tang Xia, Tang Xia could have accepted it. After all, because of the role setting, the execution of a person was necessary for the story.

But when she saw that Lengmei fell from the very high platform to the ground and that her face had been smashed, Tang Xia was really scared.

It was as terrified as witnessing someone in her real life jumping to his death. Tang Xia opened her mouth and wanted to say something but failed to make a sound.

All the people who knew the truth didn't expect the ending to be like this. It was unrealistic. No one would think that Lengmei would fall off on her own without any help. It seemed that her death was very weird.

Chu Tiankuo was naturally aware of that, but he could not let the matter spread. Now he was negotiating with the frontier country, and this would affect the bilateral relations.

He had to calm the situation first. But since almost the whole city had seen this scene, it would be easy to spread it out.

The dead person, whose cause of death was unknown, was one of the emperor's imperial concubines and she died in front of the Emperor and the Empress. If the story spread like this, it would be difficult for him to be trusted by people.

The country was so chaotic and his people were jittery. With this only, his entire country would be destroyed.

Thinking of this, Chu Tiankuo swiftly ordered his men to suppress these things as soon as possible. "People come. You should suppress the information as soon as possible, and it is not appropriate for more people to know."

"As for the people who have witnessed all of this, you should send people to appease them. Since everyone is terrified, we should give them some money to make up for that."

Chu Tiankuo did not point it out because he could not clearly tell his men to buy off common people and hide the evidence. But his men understood him and responded very quickly.

After settling the following things, he had to deal with his harem. Chu Tiankuo stood in the center of the altar, facing the ministers and imperial concubines below, and said,

"Everyone, this is the end of the story. I believed it should be blamed on Concubine Leng. I wanted to take her life. Now she had killed herself and I don't have to do that. Under this circ.u.mstance, the thing about the fake pregnancy of Lengmei is finished."

Although everyone in the audience was still talking about it, they had to listen to the Emperor, so they left quietly. Seeing this, as the Empress and the hostess of the harem, Tang Xia felt that she should say something as well.

"Yes. The imperial concubines should go back to your own palaces for the time being. As for the maids in Lengmei's palace, I will arrange you to serve in the Huanyi Bureau. When there is a new imperial concubine, you will be recruited."

Tang Xia did take the responsibility of being a queen and find a place for the several maids from Lengmei's palace who looked homeless, standing on the side and lowering their heads.

She did this to implicate them that they should stay in the Huanyi Bureau honestly and keep their mouths shut up. When these things pa.s.sed away, she would arrange for them in the future.

Chu Tiankuo was indeed gratified that Tang Xia could do this in a big picture. He had to admit that Tang Xia was extraordinary.

He was worried about how to deal with these maids. The rumors in the palace were all spread by them when they gossiped. Because of this, they should be punished to serve in the Huanyi Bureau.

However, these maids were innocent, and what Lengmei did had nothing to do with them. If he killed them together with joint crimes, it was difficult to convince the public. It was better to put them in the Huanyi Bureau and it would be for everyone's good.

At this moment, the story ended. Tang Xia went back to the palace with Chu Tiankuo. On the way, Tang Xia was still obsessed with why this happened, and why Lengmei died.

"Do you know why Lengmei suddenly died like this? With her character, how could she be so willing to die like this? Someone must have done something. Could she be drugged?"

"Could she drink something before she died? So when the drug effect happened, she fell directly from the high platform?"

"Who on the earth was desired to kill her?"

Facing a series of questions from Tang Xia, Chu Tiankuo wished that she would be less doubtful.

However, Tang Xia was unwilling to end the matter like this. She suddenly remembered the maid who stopped Lyuyou at the time. Lyuyou said she seemed to be a maid of Zui Linglong, but she pretended to serve in Lengmei's palace. Why on earth?

And why didn't the doctor identify the one who controlled everything behind this in any case? Until he had to commit suicide in the end, he didn't tell the truth. How influential was this person? Was it Zui Linglong who did this?

After overthinking it, it seemed that only Zui Linglong was capable of this. As she kept speculating, she told everything she knew to Chu Tiankuo.

Chu Tiankuo naturally had doubts about this, but since he had decided to suppress this matter, he did not want to set off another storm.

He somehow had figured out the person who was behind this, but he could not pursue, and he did not want Tang Xia to be stuck into this as well.

"Now things have pa.s.sed. You don't have to worry so much. You are safe now. I am afraid no one will take action at this moment. You can rest a.s.sured." Chu Tiankuo stopped Tang Xia who was worried aside.

However, Tang Xia could not let it go. She still wanted to figure out the ins and outs of things. "But..."

Chu Tiankuo didn't want to listen anymore, so he quickly interrupted Tang Xia and changed the topic. "How is your mission going? Which step is it now? Who is the next target you are going to attack?"

Hearing Chu Tiankuo ask about the progress, Tang Xia was suddenly speechless.

Both of them fell silent and the air around was weighty. Tang Xia knew clearly in her heart that her next goal in the mission was Chu Tiankuo.

She had been trying hard to forget thinking about it. She thought as long as the timing was not coming and she could stall it for a little longer, she would not have to do it so fast.

Tang Xia also knew that with the wisdom of Chu Tiankuo, how could he not figure out the purpose of Tang Xia staying with him? He did not ask this because he wanted to change the topic, but he already knew that Tang Xia's next target might be him.

At this time, Tang Xia was in a mess. She didn't know how to answer Chu Tiankuo, and naturally, she could not answer him. But she knew that now her feeling for Chu Tiankuo was no longer the same as they met for the first time.

At that time, she came for Ye Yifan. At that time, Chu Tiankuo was not special in her eyes. If she were asked to kill Chu Tiankuo at that time, she would not hesitate.

However, at this moment, maybe because she had spent so much time with him, she had to admit that all the arrangements were too ridiculous. After she became the queen of Chu Tiankuo and had fallen in love with him, she had to overcome him.

Tang Xia knew that she had been into Chu Tiankuo. Asking her to conquer him was more difficult than going to heaven. She knew that she could not go on like this anymore. She had to sort out her relationship with Chu Tiankuo.

"I advise you to put away your thoughts and stop thinking about the future of you and me. I cannot like you, and the two of us will become rivals sooner or later."

"With your performance, I am afraid I will be your next target. So you should concentrate on how to complete the task."

Chu Tiankuo saw Tang Xia hesitating in the side, so he began to speak.

Of course, Tang Xia was unwilling to let Chu Tiankuo break through the window paper in her heart. Although she had a soft spot for Chu Tian, she did not want him to lay it bare like this.

When Tang Xia heard the words of Chu Tiankuo, she suddenly felt embarra.s.sed. She quickly refuted, "I don't! How can I like you? But you like me, don't you?"

"Don't forget, in the car accident in the last live broadcast, you were tempted by me!"

Tang Xia just found herself an excuse, but she did not expect that Chu Tiankuo would overreact it. Just as her voice fell, Chu Tiankuo suddenly rushed forward and pushed her to the ground.

Tang Xia was shocked by Chu Tiankuo. She looked at Chu Tiankuo with big eyes. At this time, Chu Tiankuo's eyes were very sharp, which made Tang Xia somewhat timid.

She had never seen Chu Tiankuo being so serious and his sharp eyes made her uncontrollable. When they looked at each other, Chu Tiankuo said,

"I didn't expect you to remember it so deeply."
