Chapter 451 Emperor Cheng punishes the people of Tengzhou

Author: Lost Potato

Listening to Li Ao's excuse, Emperor Cheng's calm eyes suddenly changed and he became furious: "What are you talking about? They did such evil things back then, and they should pay the price. They watched indifferently when the city gate was closed. We should think that their descendants will pay the price for this."

"No matter what price they pay, they deserve it."

Emperor Cheng looked back at everyone: "Eunuch Cao has already taken people to Tengzhou. He has been waiting for my order and the execution of the people of Tengzhou City. If he cannot wait for my imperial edict, he will massacre the city without hesitation. "

As he said that, Emperor Cheng looked at the person in front of him with gloomy eyes, and said solemnly: "Li Ao, do you still remember whose subordinate Eunuch Cao turned out to be?"

"Do you think that based on Eunuch Cao's personality, he would let go of those who harmed the descendants of Duke Shen?" Emperor Cheng asked coldly, his brows full of gloom. He was very much looking forward to the final outcome of Tengzhou City being the massacre of the city.

Everyone raised their eyes to look at Empress Xuan. They hoped that Empress Xuan would come forward to dissuade Emperor Cheng from acting impulsively. After all, the only people in the world who could stop Emperor Cheng were His Highness the Crown Prince and Empress Xuan.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince loved the Crown Princess deeply, and there was no way he could persuade Emperor Cheng to take back his life. They could only place all their hopes on Queen Xuan.

Empress Xuan glanced at them indifferently, her brows filled with gloom: "I wish I could kill those people now, but you actually expect me to persuade Your Majesty."

"Shen Luo is the only flesh and blood of the Shen sister. She has suffered so many grievances and almost lost her life. You asked me to let those evildoers go. Why should I let them go? I wish they would go now. Die." Empress Xuan looked at the names carved one after another in front of her, and her heart could not calm down for a long time.

She couldn't even tolerate the people of Tengzhou City living in this world.

Queen Xuan's words left no one with the courage to speak out and persuade them, so they just knelt in silence in the ancestral hall.

"Your Majesty, Madam, as you have just seen, in fact, none of these heroes ever blamed the people of Tengzhou City." Someone whispered, trying to persuade Emperor Cheng to let go of the people of Tengzhou City.

Emperor Cheng looked back and saw everyone kneeling on the ground, as if no one had spoken just now.

"They just hope that Shen Luo can be safe. They just hope that Shen Luo can put down his hatred and live a good life, but this does not mean that they do not hate the people of Tengzhou City."

"Faced with a group of people who wanted to kill me, I left them a way to live, but they snatched their bones after my death, leaving them with no bones left."

"If all this happened to you, would you forgive them?" Emperor Cheng looked at everyone and said sternly: "Answer me, if you were the people whose names were engraved on the wall, would you forgive those who did evil?"

"They still have descendants, and their descendants are right outside the door. How do you think we should give an explanation to their descendants?" Empress Xuan took over Cheng Emperor's question and asked again.

Queen Xuan looked at everyone and asked again: "They are right outside the door. Which of you has the courage to go out and persuade them not to pursue the case and let those evil people go? Do you dare?"

Everyone fell silent again: they did not have the courage to go out and persuade.

The people who died were their close relatives, and they also suffered various injustices due to the death of their close relatives. Their promising future has also undergone earth-shaking changes, and it has become difficult to even survive.

They have lost the most important person, their family has lost its backbone. If they had not met Mr. Shen, it would have been difficult for them to survive. They would never have let those evildoers go.

Emperor Cheng chuckled: "Why, you don't dare to go out and face the descendants of the deceased, but you dare to persuade me to let the evildoers go. How can you have the courage to persuade me to let the people of Tengzhou City go?"

"." The ancestral hall was silent.

Emperor Cheng didn't want them to say anything more, so he said: "From now on, we will build an ancestral hall to worship the dead."

"Shen Xiangwan has done great service in suppressing the bandits and defending the city. From now on, he will move to the Gongde Temple and be worshiped by the world."

"Shen Luo has meritorious service in killing thieves, and his righteousness is awe-inspiring. He also inherits the title of Duke Shen for his descendants. He is hereditary and enjoys the treatment of a first-class Duke. He has 3,000 households in the city and 100 acres of fertile land. Even after marrying into the East Palace, he will still be Enjoy the benefits of Duke Shen’s title.”

After Emperor Cheng finished his announcement, he lowered his eyes and looked at everyone: "You go out, I don't want to see you, and they don't want to see you either. Let their descendants come in to worship."

"You are not qualified to worship them here." Queen Xuan watched them leave and sneered.

Gao Lian, Gao Zhi, Hua Feng and other Beizhen Prefecture Sifu guards and the common people who came to Ning'an City for Shen Luo knelt in the ancestral hall, waiting for Emperor Cheng's verdict on Tengzhou City.

Emperor Cheng looked at everyone and said, "I know you have hatred in your hearts. I promise you that I will give you an explanation. The entire people of Tengzhou City will pay the price for what they have done."

"I will deprive the people of Tengzhou City of the opportunity to become officials, ban all academies and pharmacies in Tengzhou City, block the gates of Tengzhou City and not allow them to step out of Tengzhou City. Back then, they locked your close relatives out, and today I will lock them out. It will be sealed in the city forever until all those who witnessed it die a hundred years later."

"Evildoers will be punished by God. The floods and droughts of these years are God's punishment for Tengzhou City." Su Haoran, who was standing not far away, replied, then turned around and left on horseback.

He forgot everything that happened that year. Shen Miaoyan's wonderful paintings revived all her memories, and the past events were vivid in her mind.

He hated that he had failed to stop Su Xiang from closing the city gate, and he even hated that it was his biological father, biological mother, and biological sister who closed the city gate, even though he was unwilling to admit that those people were his biological parents.

His closest relatives were cruel and ruthless, hurting the person he loved most, but he saw it with his own eyes but was unable to stop it.

He is the son of a sinner. He has no right to live in the world. He wants to go back to avenge his mother and sister. He wants everyone in Tengzhou City to pay the price.

Seeing Su Haoran's indifferent expression, Queen Xuan immediately said: "Come here, catch up with Su Haoran and bring him back. If he dares to refuse, just knock him out and bring him back."

That child is very impulsive at a young age. Now that he knows what happened in the past, he will definitely not forgive himself and will do everything he can to get revenge.

He is still young and is Shen Luo's younger brother. Now that Shen Luo is in a coma, she, as an elder, cannot let him go.

"Yes." The guard took the order and left.

Emperor Cheng didn't say anything when he saw the guards leaving, and stood silently beside everyone.

The incident in Tengzhou City happened suddenly, and his subordinates reported it, but he failed to find out the truth in time, and ordered Su Xiang to destroy all records about the soldiers who defended the city. He was also wrong, he allowed these soldiers to suffer injustice for twelve years.

He was also wrong. His misjudgment caused Shen Luo to be haunted by hatred for twelve years.

He should also apologize to the deceased and pay silent tribute!

"I'm sorry for your relatives."

"I didn't find out the truth. I was wrong."
