Chapter 249: One Hundred Thousand Rebels Died in the Strange Valley



The next period of time is to rectify the capital, appease the people, punish corrupt officials, and deal with Sima Chengze.

Sima Chengqi adopted a swift and decisive approach, issuing decrees one after another.

The first decree issued by Sima Chengqi was to clear Lu Zhan's name and posthumously confer him the title of Super-First-Rank National Protector General, and the title of King of Changsha could be passed down through generations.

He restored Lu Changgong's status as King of Changsha, returned the tiger talisman, and dispatched an army of 100,000 to stop the 100,000 rebel troops of King Xian.

He also dispatched 50,000 and 40,000 troops respectively to block the rebels in the east and west.

There are rules for dealing with the rebels, but the common people in the capital are also living in fear.

On this day, Sima Chengqi issued an announcement that the case of Sima Chengze would be investigated in the open air.

Sima Chengqi handed Sima Chengze over to the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Military Virtue, and the Dali Temple, and ordered the three parties to cooperate in the investigation and sort out all the charges.

After discussion, the Ministry of Justice, the Dali Temple, and the Wude Division decided to hold an open-air trial of Sima Chengqi's case. In other words, the three parties would conduct the trial, and all the common people present could watch.

When this news came out, the capital was in an uproar.

The common people were whispering about this. Many were excited, quite a few were positive, but there were also quite a few who were skeptical.

The time for review of Sima Chengze's case has finally come. Wow, the first thing you see is a human head.

Deng Weiping, Chen Mingxu and the Minister of Justice examined the charges one by one, and there were witnesses and evidence for each charge.

Sima Chengze was charged with so many crimes that the interrogation lasted for three days and three nights before it came to an end.

If the victim still has surviving relatives, they will give him money as compensation.

Most people also got back their properties that had been seized by trickery.

As for those who did not take it back, they would be compensated with silver.

Silver and money are also given as comfort to the deceased.

The case was handled fairly, the victims received compensation, and the wounded hearts of the people were soothed.

Those who can be compensated and compensated with money will be dealt with with money, and those who cannot be compensated with money will be killed and their lives will be paid for.

Sima Chengze must pay a heavy price for his cruelty and inhumanity.

Because Sima Chengze's crimes were too numerous and too outrageous to both humans and gods, he was sentenced to thirty-five death sentences for multiple crimes.

But Sima Chengze only had one life, so what if he was sentenced to death thirty-five times?

The people are angry, but they can accept it. Justice may be late, but it will eventually come, right?

In the end, Sima Chengze was sentenced to death by chariot.

When Sima Chengze was awake, his body was slowly torn apart, making him feel that life was worse than death.

When Sima Chengze was torn to pieces, all the common people came to watch. Even though they were surrounded by crowds and couldn't squeeze in and see, being able to witness the tyrant's torn to pieces in person was a comfort to their relatives' spirits in heaven.

After Sima Chengze was torn to pieces by a chariot, the people covered their faces and cried, feeling that the mountain above their heads had finally been removed. From then on, Dai Viet enjoyed peace and prosperity under the rule of the new emperor.

Besides, Lu Changgong led an army of 100,000 and waited in Qi Valley, intending to catch the 100,000 troops of King Xian in a trap.

With 80,000 soldiers, his plan was to keep the 100,000-strong army of the wise king in Qi Valley with minimal losses.

But Su Sijin actually planned to bury the virtuous king's 100,000 soldiers here forever without any effort.

For this reason, Lu Changgong remained silent for a long time.

Although it seemed a little unrealistic to others, Lu Changgong knew that since Su Sijin said that it would not cost a single soldier, then there would be no need to spend a single soldier.

Qi Canyon is surrounded by mountains, with a large canyon in the middle, like an extremely huge bowl.

As long as the people are trapped in Qi Gorge, it will be almost impossible for the virtuous king's 100,000 troops to escape from Qi Gorge.

"Your Highness, Princess, will the virtuous king come?" A general asked nervously, looking at the quiet Qi Valley.

Anyone with any brains would not go through the strange canyon, let alone a wise king who was known for his wisdom.

The wise king is so scheming and his plans are so strange and changeable.

Although the King of Changsha and the Queen were certain that the virtuous king would enter the strange valley.

But...why does he feel unreliable?

There are thousands of ways to enter the capital, how can we be sure that the wise king will take the Qixia Valley Road?

Su Sijin smiled lightly, "Because the wise king is smart!"

There are countless examples of people being too clever for their own good.

A wise king is such a conceited person that he would certainly take an unconventional approach. He thinks his plan is so clever that no one would set a trap in the strange valley.

What's more, the people in the capital were already busy with their own affairs, and he was sure that the idiot Sima Chengze would not think of or send a large number of soldiers to stop him.

Su Sijin really figured out the wise king's thoughts, and Lu Changgong even calculated his next three to six steps.

Also, to be on the safe side, they destroyed all other roads in advance, blocking the way of the virtuous king's 100,000-strong army.

As a second best option, if he insisted on going to Beijing to rebel, he had to take the only road in Qixia Valley.

Of course, the wise king was not stupid. If this was the only way to enter the capital, and if he wanted the throne so much, he would not give up even if Qixia Valley was likely to be his burial place and even if he knew that there were mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead.

He has waited too long.

He is already fifty-eight years old. If he continues to hesitate, he will regret it for the rest of his life.

Moreover, the timing was most favorable for him. He mysteriously believed that the throne would belong to him when he went to Beijing.

Therefore, even if the only road left is Qixia Valley, there is no turning back. If you win, you will succeed in seizing the throne, or if you lose, you will die.

If I go back in disgrace, I will have already left a thorn in the emperor's heart, and the end will be death.

Since he was going to die anyway, he still had a chance to continue going to Beijing.
