People gathered in front of the Heavenly King's Mansion, and countless women were already standing inside the blown-out gate.
These women were all women from Hong Xiuquan's harem. They stood inside the gate, looking eagerly at the people gathered outside. Their eyes kept wandering around. There was joy and excitement in their eyes, but there was also a hidden worry. No one knew whether Someone comes to pick them up and go home. If no one comes to pick them up, what should they do? There are not a few people who think this way.
Li Zhen stood outside the Tianwang Mansion and also participated in this ceremony.
When Li Zhen appeared, safety became the top priority.
Long Ao arranged for all the thirteen guards of the Dragon Group to hide at various commanding heights outside the Tianwang Mansion. He always paid attention to the situation in the Tianwang Mansion. If anyone made any unusual move, he could shoot and kill him immediately. Except for the thirteen guards of the Dragon Group, Long Ao Ao also arranged for people with good marksmanship from other regiments to be distributed around to prevent anyone from harming Li Zhen.
Li Zhen's safety is more important than Mount Tai, so Long Ao must arrange it carefully.
Li Zhen glanced at the gathered people and ordered in a deep voice: "Start."
After the words fell, Lu Shaochuan walked out and strode towards a temporary high platform outside the Heavenly King's Mansion. This high platform was specially built for the woman who was about to be called out to be claimed, because there were so many people coming to claim her. , if a woman stood outside the gate of the Heavenly King's Mansion, she would not be able to see clearly from the south, so a high platform was specially built.
The woman stood on a high platform and everyone could see her.
Lu Shaochuan always talks about brothels, but he is a very good man and has great sympathy for women. He took the initiative to ask for help, so Li Zhencai left the matter of announcing the women in the house to Lu Shaochuan. He saw that He glanced at the people who were still talking outside the palace, took a breath, and shouted loudly: "Listen all, next I will read the names of the women in the Heavenly King's Palace. Everyone who hears the names of their relatives should immediately stand up and take them away. go back."
While Lu Shaochuan was speaking, the people below were still talking.
As a result, there was constant noise outside the Heavenly King's Mansion.
This situation made Lu Shaochuan very unhappy. At this serious moment, there were still people who wanted to joke. He said with a straight face: "Shut up, everyone. If anyone makes a fucking sound again, I will kill him." Catch him and let him stand alone outside the Heavenly King's Mansion, so that everyone can see his appearance and see how he doesn't care about his relatives."
This loud shout made the people outside the Heavenly King's Mansion quiet down.
No one wanted to go up, so it was very quiet. Seeing that the scene had calmed down, Lu Shaochuan opened a roster in his hand. This roster was a record of the names of all the women in Hong Xiuquan's harem. Everyone's names were on it. , Lu Shaochuan took up his breath again and shouted: "Liu Yuelan."
The sound was very loud and was carried outside the Heavenly King's Mansion.
This voice can already be heard clearly by everyone.
At the same time, a pretty woman came out. This woman was Liu Yuelan. She timidly came up to the high platform and stood on the high platform with her head lowered, not daring the people below her.
"Wow, she is a beauty. Come on, raise your head and let people take a look."
In the extremely quiet situation, a very discordant sound suddenly came from under the high platform.
Li Zhenwen had lost his reputation, but he was speaking like a naughty person.
Li Zhen ordered: "Brother Long, bring the people here." Long Ao immediately ordered the soldiers to take action, and soon caught the rascal who spoke. The rascal just spoke out of habit, wanting to tease him, but he didn't expect it. But he was caught by the soldiers. He knelt in front of Li Zhen and said loudly: "The villain just said a word. It is not illegal. Why did you arrest the villain?"
Li Zhen looked serious and said in a deep voice: "You have not violated the national law, but you have violated my law. Take him to the high platform and punish him with ten army sticks. Give me a severe lesson."
No matter how much the rogue begged for mercy, Li Zhen remained unmoved.
Right now, we just need to establish our authority.
The soldier put the rogue on the high platform, and in front of everyone, severely beat the rogue with ten army sticks. Lu Shaochuan also looked at the rogue who kept screaming and had a swollen buttocks, and said: "If According to my temper back then, I will definitely kill you. This time, I have the right to spare you."
Lu Shaochuan looked at the people below, and did not continue to read, but shouted: "I know it all very well, you compare your feelings, if the woman standing on the high platform is your relative, do you have the intention to tease her? , I hope you will be quiet. The people coming out are your relatives. Immediately raise your hands and gather with your relatives. No one who is not your relatives is allowed to speak. There are more than a thousand women in the Heavenly King's Palace. It can’t be determined in just a short time.”
After a pause, Lu Shaochuan continued to yell: "Who are the people below Liu Yuelan's family?"
The voice fell, but there was still no sound from anyone in the crowd.
Lu Shaochuan had already received Li Zhen's instructions, so he looked at Liu Yuelan and said: "Miss Yuelan, your family may live a bit far away and they haven't arrived in Nanjing yet. Don't worry, we will make arrangements one by one. If your family does not come, we will ask you where you live and send you back."
Liu Yuelan was disappointed, but she still nodded and walked away calmly.
Lu Shaochuan continued: "Li Muqing."
After the words fell, a beautiful-looking woman stepped onto the high platform.
As soon as the woman came up, an old man below shouted loudly: "Here, here, Li Muqing is my daughter." As soon as the old man spoke, the people in front of him gave way, and the old man quickly walked out. And Li Muqing also came down from the high platform. After the two father and daughter recognized each other, they burst into tears.
The old man knelt down with a plop and said to Li Zhen: "Thank you, sir. You are my great benefactor."
Li Muqing also knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly in thanks.
Li Zhen helped the old man up and said, "Old man, there are many people here. Take your children and go back early."
"Uh-huh."
The old man nodded repeatedly and left the Tianwang Mansion with Li Muqing. Li Muqing's departure made many women envious because they could finally go home.
"Zhao Yalan."
"Deng Rongrong."
…
One by one, names popped out of Lu Shaochuan's mouth, and were continuously taken away by the people standing outside the Tianwang Mansion. However, in the process, there were still many situations like Liu Yuelan's, standing on the stage but no one claimed them. For this reason, we can only let them stay aside for the time being. After all, there are countless women waiting.
Lu Shaochuan went down one by one, with smoke coming out of his throat before he finished reading all the names.
At this time, there were more than a hundred women left outside the Tianwang Mansion.
Similarly, although most of the people gathered outside the Heavenly King's Mansion dispersed, some people still stayed, looking eagerly at the Heavenly King's Mansion. Their names had already been read, and their daughters had not come out yet, which made the people feel worried.
"Sir, my daughter hasn't come out. Can you look for her again?"
In the crowd, a commoner looked towards Li Zhen looking for help, expecting Li Zhen's help.
