Su Huaizhong took a deep breath and pursed his lips.
He said, it’s fine if the homes of civil and military officials were raided as a punishment by God, but it’s impossible that the home of a small city gate clerk would also be raided.
Su Huaizhong raised his eyelids and looked towards the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion.
He didn't even need to go into the Duke of Huguo's Mansion, which even had no gate. It must be just like the imperial palace, with only four walls left.
If the divine punishment from heaven was because the emperor punished the Shen family, then shouldn't the Shen family also be punished by God?
After Emperor Tianwu regained consciousness, the first thing he did was to ask him to come to the Duke of Huguo's mansion as soon as possible.
What's there to see here? It's just like the imperial palace, with bare walls!
"In consideration of General Shen's outstanding military achievements, the shackles on his feet will be removed."
Su Huaizhong raised his chin towards the officers and said, "Hurry up..."
"...Yes, yes, yes!" The officer was stunned for a moment, nodded repeatedly, turned around and waved at his men.
"What are you standing there for? Go and untie it."
What does the emperor mean by this?
Could it be that he felt guilty about cleaning up the Shen family so thoroughly that he treated the Shen family preferentially?
The chief officer glanced at the women of the Shen family with scrutiny, and began to murmur in his heart.
If you don't want to wear it, then don't wear it. You can walk faster if you take off the shackles on your feet.
People from all walks of life in the capital were watching him closely, making him feel very helpless, fearing that he might offend someone accidentally.
Soon, the guards removed the shackles from the feet of all the Shen family members.
Old Madam Shen looked at Su Huaizhong in confusion, not sure what the emperor was trying to do.
A slap in the face and then a sweet date?
What else is there about them that is worthy of Emperor Tianwu's concern?
Could it be that-----Old Seven's ability was discovered by Emperor Tianwu?
Thinking of this, Mrs. Shen drooped her eyelids in panic.
Su Huaizhong frowned slightly as he looked at Chen Yong, who was drooping weakly.
It’s so soft, it can’t last until the city gate, right?
"You—carry Chen Yong over there. Time is running out. Hurry up."
Su Huaizhong pointed at the tallest and strongest man among the guards and asked him to carry Shen Yong on his back.
The two weak women carried Chen Yong, and they probably ran out of energy after just a few steps.
The emperor can tell him to send the Shen family out of the capital as soon as possible.
The imperial edict has been issued, and there is absolutely no reason to take it back.
"yes!"
The tall guard responded, walked up to Shen Yong and squatted down.
Lu Man and Meng Yunfei looked at each other and put Chen Yong on the guard's back together.
Su Huaizhong looked at Shen Yong's blood-stained back, turned his head and waved his hand.
"Hurry up and don't waste time!"
Su Huaizhong turned around and walked forward without even entering the gate of the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion.
Emperor Tianwu believed that the divine punishment was sent down for the Shen family, which meant that the Duke of Huguo's Mansion would remain intact.
I asked him to come and take a look. If it is good, the Shen family will deal with it separately.
The Duke of Huguo's Mansion will also be turned into the Emperor Tianwu's palace, and the imperial palace is now completely uninhabitable.
The concubines were all crying together, and Emperor Tianwu fainted and had no place to lie down.
As a result, he rushed here in a hurry, but it was all in vain.
Ding Zhenhao looked at Su Huaizhong's back, his eyes flashed slightly, and he flicked his sleeves and followed him.
After all, he is just a small city gate guard. It is normal that the emperor's confidants cannot see him.
When he climbs up one day, Su Huaizhong will naturally be polite to him.
The group had only taken a few steps when they saw a group of people surrounding them.
If people had heard that a minister had his property confiscated and was exiled, they would have been waiting at the door of that house long ago.
But there were too many wealthy families in the capital who had accidents this morning, and they were all watching the excitement everywhere, and they simply couldn't keep up.
Seeing those wealthy families become penniless overnight, they felt excited and thrilled.
Sure enough, as long as I am not the one who is unlucky, I feel happy watching it.
However, the people felt very sad when they saw what happened to the Shen family.
The Shen family has been a family of military commanders for generations, protecting the great Celestial Empire, allowing them to live such a stable and prosperous life.
The people will never forget that General Shen fought bloody battles in the northwest and was carried back to the capital several times.
The Shen family protected them with their blood, but now they have ended up like this.
When the people saw Shen Yong's bloody back, they suddenly remembered the scene when General Shen was carried back by a warhorse covered in blood.
The people felt as if their hearts were being cut by a knife, their eyes became hot, and tears fell unconsciously.
I don't know who took the lead, but all of a sudden, the people on both sides of the street knelt down.
"Take care of yourself...."
"Bon Voyage...."
"General Shen's spirit in heaven will protect you..."
“…”
Seeing so many officials and guards escorting the Shen family, the common people did not dare to make a fuss or say anything extreme.
The emperor could do whatever he wanted for a loyal and heroic family like the Shen family, let alone ordinary people like them.
If they dared to make trouble, the guards might chop their necks with their knives at the next moment.
Since ancient times, few loyal ministers have had a good ending, especially military generals, who would arouse the emperor's fear if they were not careful.
Once the emperor becomes suspicious, the general's family will be on the verge of collapse.
Old Madam Shen looked at the people who were seeing them off with tears in her eyes, and her throat tightened with sobs.
Chen Yong lay on the guard's back, half-closed his eyes and glanced at the people on both sides of the road.
He sighed slightly in his heart. The people all knew what was right and what was wrong, but the dog emperor was blind.
He glanced at his pretty sisters-in-law out of the corner of his eye.
The sisters-in-law looked at the kneeling people, their eyes quickly sweeping through the crowd.
I looked around but didn't see any of my family members coming to see me off.
It seems that their mother's family has completely given up on them.
Well, if you don’t want to come to see me off, then don’t come. It will save you from crying and feeling sad.
The sisters-in-law looked away disappointedly, lowered their eyelids and looked at their feet, moving forward little by little with the main group.
The large group was marching when suddenly they stopped moving.
Everyone looked up and saw the leader of the palace guards walking towards them with a group of guards.
"Commander Yi, what is this...!?"
Su Huaizhong looked at the group of guards behind Yi Zhengjin in confusion.
"Eunuch Su!"
Yi Zhengjin clasped his fists slightly, frowning tightly.
"On orders from the Emperor....on errands!"
With so many people watching, it was difficult for him to directly say what his job was.
At this time, the only job he could do was to go to the merchants' homes to collect beds, tables, chairs, benches, etc.
It's not a big deal for the emperor of a country to not even have a place to sit.
I originally thought of just finding a wealthy family and moving a set of good furniture back home.
Who knows....
After going around in circles, it was found that the aristocratic families were no better than the imperial palace.
"Eunuch Su, I wonder if the Duke of Huguo's Mansion is still intact?"
