Chapter 38: People's hearts go, surrounded by the palace, isolated and helpless on the snowy night! [The killing begins, please read more]
"Your Majesty, 30,000 demon envoys, 15,000 of them, are sent out, led by three Contra Yin commanders, to seize three city gates!"
"Now, all four city gates are in our hands."
"I already know."
"Your Majesty, the people in the city are all soldiers without fighting ability, and there are many civilians watching from the sidelines. Do you want to kill them all?"
"Leave the civilians alone, kill the rest."
"Your Majesty, we have arrived near the palace, and there are guards around. Do we need to kill them?"
"kill."
Qin Zheng is located in the chariot.
Since he entered Tiandou City from outside the city, he only left two calm words, and then let the demon envoy and the five Yin commanders wave their sickles wantonly and massacre the defenders of the old order in the city.
"This Qin Zheng is a son of tyranny, ah!!"
"No!"
"Spare your life——"
Fifteen demon envoys and five thousand underworld envoys came in force, causing the entire Tiandou City to reverberate with cries, begging for mercy, angry shouts, and wailing sounds.
All officers and soldiers belonging to Tiandou were killed at this moment, regardless of whether they surrendered or not!
All the officers and soldiers who wanted to compete were torn apart by the demons, leaving no bones left!
Rivers of blood flowed, corpses were scattered everywhere, and the once magnificent Tiandou City turned into a boundless hell.
The brutality was no less severe than outside the city.
【……】
Until all the imperial guards around the palace were killed, countless heads rolled down their bodies.
This killing had just stopped.
"You haven't woken up yet."
Qin Zheng was in the chariot, looking at the Qin family in the middle who was being resurrected by Bai Wuchang.
Beside him was Qian Renxue, who was holding her snow-white chin with one hand and looking at him with burning eyes.
Neither of them spoke.
The scene was silent for a while.
"Your Majesty, the drums have been beating for a long time, but no one has come out yet."
"And the spies we went to check the various colleges all responded, and no one was found coming out."
Hei Wuchang was outside the carriage at this moment, took a step forward, cupped his hands and said, his eyes showing a cold color.
Qin Zheng then withdrew his gaze and looked at Qian Renxue. When he saw that she quickly signaled to him that she would not go out, he nodded lightly.
Immediately, he walked out of the car and looked around.
In front of you is the majestic palace, every brick and tile showing the majesty of the royal family.
All around, there were dense crowds of Yin ghost messengers and demon ghost messengers, all surrounding the palace. No one could escape.
The sound of beating drums kept resounding, making the huge palace seem vast and miserable.
"It seems that these nobles are afraid."
Qin Zheng frowned slightly.
The reason why he had not ordered the capture of the palace for so long was because the palace was very large and he didn't know the specific structure, and he didn't want Xue Ye to escape through unknown secret passages.
What's more, Qin Zheng wanted to see if the Blue Lightning Overlord Dragon Sect, Qibao Glazed Sect, and the rest would come.
This was his previous strategy to lure the nobles out of the city. Although it wasn't very effective, it was easy to use.
But now it seems that after the news of the appearance of a titled Douluo under his command spread, the nobles have all betrayed the Xue Ye Emperor, and no one is willing to come out.
Then Qin Zheng, there is no need to waste any more time.
"Shout, I will only give them the last ten breaths."
"If I don't see the entire Xue family again, I will rush into the palace."
"Leave no one behind!"
【……】
"He...why doesn't he kill us?"
In the distance, because Qin Zheng did not kill civilians, there were already many bold and good-hearted people who could not bear their curiosity and followed quietly. Looking at the young man standing on the chariot among thousands of troops, everyone had doubts in their hearts.
Originally, they all resented Qin Zheng for entering the city, because it meant that the other party had destroyed their home.
But when they saw that Qin Zheng had not ordered them to be killed together, they reacted belatedly, as if they had misunderstood each other.
"I heard that this man is the son of the duke who was slandered by Xue Ye. Now he is here to clear the emperor."
"It's just that he has ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, and said that the nobles and the emperor cannot rule the country together. And the most important thing is that as long as you surrender to him, no matter who you are, your family can receive three Gintama coins!"
Suddenly, there was a lot of discussion.
When I heard the following words [The emperor and the nobles cannot govern the country together], and [Pilgrims, no matter who they are, can receive three Gintama coins]...
Everyone's eyes flashed with blazing light.
"Really or not?"
"If it's true, then I hope this bullshit Tiandou Empire is destroyed!"
"That's right! The nobles have used their power to bully others for a long time. If we don't have a soul master in our family, we have no human rights at all. We should have seen them unhappy!"
In the Tiandou Empire, civilians have no human rights at all.
It was common for people to be secretly trafficked by nobles and resold into guards, maids, or anything else.
The people have hated him for a long time, but they are unable to resist.
If Qin Zheng's remarks are true, then among the common people, this is a huge earthquake and a sensation!
【……】
"Your Majesty has an order. If you don't see all the members of the Xue family within ten breaths, they will enter the palace."
"Leave no one behind!"
Hei Wuchang's gloomy voice resounded throughout the palace, and tens of thousands of demon and ghost envoys began to have cold eyes, ready to kill at any moment.
But soon, the sound of noisy footsteps suddenly sounded.
Qin Zheng's eyes did not change at all, looking at the place he must pass when leaving the palace.
Tap tap tap——
Soon, hundreds of people came out of the palace.
They were all wearing official uniforms, and the leader was wearing a golden dragon robe.
"All the civil and military officials and the nobles have come out."
"Even His Majesty Xue Ye came out."
Seeing this row of officials, as well as Xue Ye, the people of the Imperial City standing far away watching the excitement, immediately exclaimed, looking at these people with a look of horror and deep awe.
At this moment, the noise in the field suddenly disappeared.
The majesty with which Emperor Xueye ruled the Tiandou Empire for a long time could still frighten countless civilians even before his death.
【……】
The two groups looked at each other.
Xue Ye saw the young man in the middle of the army. Although his face was calm, the moment he saw him, his eyes burst out with horrifying murderous intent.
He saw the densely packed corpses of the most loyal soldiers under the royal family in front of the majestic and vicissitudes of the palace.
What's more, he saw the complicated eyes of countless civilians around him looking at him. They were unworried eyes. Although they were his people, they didn't care about him at all.
"Did I make such mistakes in governing the country?"
"Oh--"
Suddenly, Emperor Xueye smiled bitterly, with mixed feelings in his heart.
After ruling the country for decades, in the end, not only was he blocked in front of his home, ready to be executed, but even the civilians under his command did not show even a trace of sadness and pain when they saw his death.
However, he abandoned the common people and gained support from the nobles, but at this moment, only because the other party had a titled Douluo under his command, it actually led to...
No one came to help him!
Such a scene is indeed extremely insulting to an emperor.
"Qin Zheng, you win."
After a long time, Emperor Xueye looked at Qin Zheng, his voice hoarse.
The general trend is over, the people's support is no longer there, and he no longer has the power to make a comeback.
He completely gave in!
