Chapter 565: Queen: What the hell!?

The curtain of the carriage was gently blown up by the evening breeze, and through the blown curtain, everyone saw the silver-haired woman walking out.

Her face was fragile, and her eyes were gentle beneath her brows.

Her silver hair was in disarray, like spring snow, and even though it was already dusk, it was still shining with silver light. She was wearing an exceptionally loose white dress with fringes that revealed her snow-white neck, and the corners of her sleeves fluttered in the wind.

However, you can see that her hands, wrists, arms, and neck are all wrapped in bandages, especially the bandages on her hands, where bloodstains can be clearly seen, and it is obvious that she has been seriously injured.

Despite being seriously injured, he still walked confidently to the side of the empress, with a gentle look in his eyes and a smile on his face, calm and gentle, just like the spring breeze at that moment.

When they saw this woman, everyone was stunned.

It turns out that there really are goddesses in this world.

Especially with such silver-white hair color.

It was so beautiful, especially the sky on the side where the Queen was standing, which was already dusk.

The most beautiful scenery in the world is due to favorable weather and geographical conditions, but the most beautiful scenery is due to harmonious people. Many people present were seeing it for the first time. Although it was embellished by favorable weather, it was just the icing on the cake and was nothing insignificant.

Even the family heads who were begging for mercy were stunned for a moment. The three family heads who were most attracted to women stared at Su Changan, and were so attracted by the beauty of the silver-haired Su Changan that they seemed to forget their own situation.

But the next moment.

The three men noticed that the emperor was looking at them coldly.

The three of them felt a jolt in their hearts, and the next moment they felt as if they saw a giant tiger pouncing on them. Frightened expressions appeared on their faces, and they hurriedly lowered their heads.

But it was at that moment when these three people hurriedly bowed their heads.

Swish!

The one who did it was [Suanni], one of the thirteen guards on both sides. He drew his sword quickly, like a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey, and ate the three people clean, leaving only their heads.

The heads of the three patriarchs of the aristocratic families, like the head of the old man from the Ning family, fell to the ground and rolled to the side.

“Wow!”

The fire-seeking soldiers and the surrounding cavalry saluted Su Changan in unison, as if they had seen nothing.

However, those common people who were originally stunned by Su Changan's beauty were all shocked, and looked at the three heads on the ground in even greater shock.

He also concentrated more and held his breath, because this meant he could easily kill the heads of three big families.

Although the emperor has no need for reason to kill people,

It was so weird today, because no one from those families said anything. Instead, they all bowed their foreheads to the ground with a look of horror on their faces.

The remaining family members all knelt on the ground with their foreheads touching the ground, not daring to move at all.

In the current situation, I don’t even have the qualifications to resist.

He had previously found a random excuse to kill Old Man Ning.

When the three people saw the Queen's eyes were not right, they were killed immediately. Especially in the scene just now, they also clearly felt the presence of the evil tiger. Although they guessed that it was what the warriors called "intention",

The first murder was enough to horrify them, and the second time made them even more frightened.

As a result, many people were shaking more and more, and some of them even had their clothes soaked with sweat.

Even though Ouyang Wenyou, who had just been kneeling on the ground with his body straight like his father, now had beads of sweat on his forehead.

Those of the older generation were swallowing their saliva, almost unable to bear the fear in their hearts.

Only Master Ouyang Huai was kneeling on the ground with his body straight. After presenting the note, he had kept his hands raised in a bow and lowered his eyes, not looking at anything. Even though blood had splattered on his face and body from the knife strike just now, Master Ouyang Huai did not move at all.

only

The people looked at Su Changan with curiosity and fear on their faces.

That one, the current Queen [Sejia] of the world.

only

Everyone looked at the bandages on the Queen's hands, wrists, and neck, and they were all very curious about what had happened.

Especially the silver hair of the Queen.

Rumor has it that the Queen Mother does not have black hair, so how come her hair has turned silver-white at such a young age? And the Queen Mother is so high up, so how could she have so many injuries, and her face looks so weak.

There are so many strange things today, and even more curious things, as if all kinds of inexplicable things have been happening since this morning.

Xia Fengxiang glanced at Su Changan and sighed in his heart. He knew that no matter how hard he tried to persuade Su Changan to go back, he would definitely not go back. After all, he was a stubborn person!

So he reached out and took the paper from Lian Wei, then opened it. He had to finish the task immediately so that Su Changan could have a good rest.

Su Changan smiled and looked at the contents of the paper.

It was natural for the queen to stand next to the empress.

And it wouldn’t count if I wasn’t there, but when I was in the car, there was no reason to let my wife face it alone.

Of course, he was not facing these dying people alone, but facing the common people.

I can't let all these injuries and this head of silver hair go to waste. I have to make use of them and show them to people.

Open the note

It just says a simple sentence: 'You can be forgiven once and keep your family safe.'

Su Changan was not surprised when he saw the contents of the paper.

Su Changan heard Xia Fengxiang say.

In addition to Jiangling, Guangling, and Gusu, there are several important cities along the entire southern trade route that Xia Fengxiang must visit.

Another reason was that Master Ouyang Huai had something similar to a gold medal of immunity given to her by her father. She couldn't stop others from coming, so she had to go there in person to take it back.

Looking at the familiar handwriting on the paper, Xia Fengxiang looked at Master Ouyang Huai: "Avoid it?"

Master Ouyang Huai still kept his hands in a bowing position, his eyes looking down: "I dare not have any extravagant hopes, but I know that Your Majesty is the most filial to the late emperor and listens to the late emperor the most."

I dare not hope that it is true, because what happened this time is too big, especially the Queen is still like this. Master Ouyang Huai knows that His Majesty now loves the Queen the most, just like the late Emperor.

But what is said later is also true, because it is the last straw, the life-saving straw to save my children.

but

Master Ouyang Huai actually always thought that he had another life-saving straw, but when he saw the emperor killing so many people all the way south, he realized that the straw would never save his life.

And that life-saving straw was Yang Shanchang.

The current Taifu.

The emperor wanted to use Yang Shanchang to deal with him, so he sent Zhao Yulang to Jiangling. He also took advantage of the fact that Yang Shanchang's hometown was also in Jiangnan to gradually weaken the influence of the Chamber of Commerce.

He even used Yang Shanchang to suppress his own power in the court.

But on the other hand, this is the value of Yang Shanchang being alive.

If he died, Yang Shanchang would be dead too.

So he once wrote a letter to Yang Shanchang.

Although Master Ouyang Huai was not in the court, he had a thorough understanding of the court situation, so he wrote in his heart, "The court today cannot accommodate a powerful official, unless there is another powerful official. So, you and I, do you want to 'make peace'?"

But Yang Shanchang's reply contained only three words: "It depends on fate."

Master Ouyang Huai knew that the meaning of these three words was "everything depends on the emperor's orders" rather than on God's mood.

At that time, the emperor went to the south of the Yangtze River.

Master Ouyang Huai then realized that Yang Shanchang was not his life-saving straw.

And we also know that the emperor is going to deal with the noble families in the same way as the late emperor did, or even more ruthlessly than the late emperor did.

And if that is the case, the 'golden medal of immunity from death' in his hand cannot protect his family, so he has to agree to what the younger generations are going to do.

only

Defeated.

Then there's nothing much to say.

Become a king, and become a prey when defeated. This has been the truth since ancient times. The process of defeat is not important.

Therefore, if they want to save their children, they can only grasp this piece of paper as a life-saving straw.

Xia Fengxiang did not deny it: "Master Huai, you really understand me."

Xia Fengxiang looked at the people from the Gan family and the Jiang family and asked, "Your son married the youngest daughter of the Gan family, and your granddaughter married into the Jiang family. Are they considered your family?"

Master Ouyang Huai immediately replied: "Not really."

At the same time, the old man of the Gan family and the old man of the Jiang family heard it and looked at Master Ouyang Huai. They both knew what the paper was.

That's why they married into the Ouyang family a long time ago.

but.

I didn't expect Master Ouyang Huai to answer so decisively.

"Then kill him." Xia Fengxiang put the note in his hand away.

As soon as the words fell

Xiao Xu and other fire-seeking soldiers on the side immediately drew their swords and, without any hesitation, chopped off the heads of the two old men and the head of the Gan and Jiang families.

See this scene.

The panic caused by the death of three people made the other family heads feel uneasy again. They bowed their foreheads to the ground and began to beg for mercy from Xia Fengxiang again. Among those begging for mercy this time were many old people.

"It's too noisy." Xia Fengxiang said softly.

As soon as these words were spoken, Xiao Xu naturally understood what His Majesty meant, and he didn't even put the knife in his hand back into the sheath, but had already chopped it down.

This is even more true for other fire-seeking soldiers.

Screams and sounds of terror appeared.

But it only lasted for a moment, and the sounds disappeared.

There were originally dozens of old men and heads of various families, but suddenly only Ouyang Wenyou and Master Ouyang Huai were left kneeling in a pool of blood.

Ouyang Wenyou listened to the screams of these old friends, and there was blood splattered on his body. Not only was his forehead covered with sweat, but his body was also shaking.

All of a sudden, only the two from the Ouyang family were left.

This left all the people completely dumbfounded.

Xia Fengxiang looked down at Ouyang Wenyou and said, "I heard that you didn't allow the people to pick the tea from your own tea mountain just to smell the fragrance of tea? But you have been letting people pick the tea from your own tea mountain. Now many tea farmers' tea is not good on the trees."

Ouyang Wenyou lowered his forehead to the ground, "I am guilty as a subject."

Xia Fengxiang looked at Ouyang Wenyou and said, "Your father asked you to give the people some leeway when you do things, but you didn't listen and didn't give the people any leeway at all. You said you respected your father, but you didn't do anything according to your father's instructions."

Ouyang Wenyou didn't dare to speak.

Xia Fengxiang looked at Master Ouyang Huai: "Sir, you know me and know that I respect my father very much, but you don't know that after I became the emperor, I found that my father did many things wrong, but I will not stop respecting him. On the contrary, I can understand him better. After all, sitting in this position, it is impossible not to make mistakes. So I will help my father to correct the mistakes he made."

Upon hearing this, Master Ouyang Huai immediately understood what was going on.

But no words yet.

Xia Fengxiang said, "My father said that you can be forgiven for your crimes. I just forgave you, but just now is just now. Now is now. I don't intend to forgive you now, so... kill you."

Master Ouyang Huai and Ouyang Wenyou immediately looked up at Xia Fengxiang.

But at this time.

The knives of Xiao Xu and another fire-seeker had already reached the back of the two men's necks.

Hand raised and knife fell.

Two more heads.

And now, they are all dead.

All the family heads and old men of each family are dead.

Quiet~~~

The common people looked at the emperor and really didn't know what was going on.

But at this time.

Ba Xia had already picked up the paper in his hand and announced loudly.

"Led by the Ouyang family, the Gan family, and the Jiang family."

Ba Xia read it out, and the people heard it clearly, especially the description of the crimes of the Ouyang family and other families in the decree.

Rebellion, regicide and empress-killing.

Each crime is clear, but these two are the clearest.

After hearing this, the people suddenly understood why the emperor was here, why these people were so scared, and why the emperor killed them so easily.

Why is the Queen so weak and seriously injured?

The people looked at the corpse on the ground in shock. How dare they do that?

After reading out the crimes, Ba Xia continued reading out.

However, this time, they were all measures for the people who had been persecuted. When the people heard this, especially when they heard about compensation for the tea farmers, they were all excited. Especially those who had been persecuted by these big families in recent years and suffered losses could report to the government and get compensation. The people almost cheered.

Baxia announced the decree as usual.

Xia Fengxiang planned to help Su Changan go back and rest quickly.

But Su Changan shook his head and looked at Shentu Kuyue: "I can't eat it."

As he said this, he glanced at the fried cakes over there.

Shentu Kuyue nodded immediately, "Eat!"

Su Changan immediately looked up at Xia Fengxiang.

Xia Fengxiang glanced at the fried cakes and said coldly, "Channu can eat it, but you can't."

Shentu Kuyue's eyes lit up.

Su Changan looked surprised: "Why!"

Xia Fengxiang said: "Avoid eating. You are injured and cannot eat greasy food."

Su Changan blinked: "What the hell?!"
