Everyone immediately gave orders to take out all the Cochin coins that had been seized before and disperse them.
The people who got the money didn't care so much and smashed their houses into pieces.
Some people even took out their remaining rations and wanted to exchange money with Zhao Rui.
Zhao Rui raised the corners of his mouth slightly and generously asked people to give him money, while standing on a high platform.
"Everything in the palace can be exchanged for money. As long as you can take it, give it to me immediately!"
The people present fell silent instantly. They looked in the direction of the palace, with a trace of fear in their eyes.
After all, they are the people of the Cochin Kingdom, and they are still a little afraid of their own king.
Zhao Rui could naturally see what the people were thinking and directly asked people to move out the bodies of the captured Jiaozhi generals and Liang Shubao.
"Your emperor is dead. Everything in the palace has become ownerless. Go and get it. Even the gate outside can be exchanged for money!"
The people present instantly became excited and turned around and rushed towards the imperial city.
Perhaps because all the elite soldiers were taken away, there were only a few thousand defenders in the entire Neilong City.
Besides, the people who rushed over were their own people, so of course they were not too wary.
Not long after, the outer city gates were demolished, and even the bricks on the city walls were taken off.
Zhao Rui captured the imperial city effortlessly.
The royal palace of Cochin was extremely luxurious, with splendor everywhere, and even the pillars at the door were inlaid with a large number of gems.
It’s in sharp contrast to the private houses outside!
No wonder the people here are so numb. It turns out that the royal family of Cochin State exploited the people to this extent, even more severely than in the western desert countries.
Zhao Rui sat on the throne, the domineering look in his eyes clearly visible.
Above the main hall, the princes and ministers of Jiaozhi Kingdom knelt on the ground, with panic on their faces.
"What grudge does our country of Cochin have against your great merchants? Why are we doing this?"
A man who looked a bit violent kept yelling, looking extremely ferocious.
Zhao Rui's eyes were filled with coldness and he waved to the soldier next to him.
Then two soldiers stepped forward and chopped off the guy's head.
The princes and nobles who were kneeling on the ground were frightened. They did not expect that Zhao Rui did not take their lives seriously at all.
As nobles of the Cochin Kingdom, they have been dominating here for so many years and have long developed an arrogant nature. They have always killed others, and no one has ever dared to treat them like this.
Zhao Rui's actions completely frightened them into silence.
"His Royal Highness King Zhao, we are also Jiaozhi nobles after all. Without us, it is impossible for you to rule Jiaozhi. If you can let us go..."
Before he finished speaking, he immediately killed the person who spoke.
"In my eyes, you are no different than animals. Whether or not to kill you depends entirely on my mood! Looking at you like this, you are determined to die. In this case, I will grant you your wish!"
A strong murderous aura emanated from his body, and he looked like a murderous god on earth.
A series of screams followed, and the hall suddenly turned into a sea of blood.
Zhao Rui carried the King Yu Sword and walked over the corpses on the ground to the outside of the hall.
At this moment, a large number of people have gathered in the palace. They are holding the items in the palace and waiting to exchange money with Zhao Rui.
