Chapter 244 Killing Those with Crown Names

Since ancient times, the Central Plains has ruled the world with filial piety. He only killed his own father and relatives, but now he even forces the Heavenly Family mother and son to kill each other in such a difficult time! The ethical principles of the world have been completely trampled underfoot by him!

Some conservative ministers have turned red with anger.

The voice of reprimand is incessant in our ears.

However, Xie Wei remained motionless, as if he had not heard of it.

He always does what he wants to do, but he doesn't need to explain to anyone or anyone else to understand the reasons behind it.

Even though everyone regards him as a devil.

Jiang Xuening looked at him from a distance in the crowd, feeling a faint pain in her heart.

Xie Wei looked at them and gently urged them, "Isn't it easy to choose?"

A person who is not clear about the situation at that time, said he was insane; However, those who have some understanding or speculation are vaguely aware that behind his actions, there must be hidden secrets from the past!

Is it true that more than twenty years ago, there was also such a decision before Xie Wei?

No one can confirm.

Since being dragged here, Empress Dowager Xiao has been continuously frightened.

At this moment, upon hearing these words, I finally realized.

She clearly did not feel that Xie Wei was very similar to Xiao Yuan or Yan Min from the past. However, when she remembered the location of the secret room that should not have been known, and the familiar dilemma before her, the terrifying conjecture that she couldn't believe came to mind.

Empress Dowager Xiao's eyes were about to crack.

As if seeing a demon, she trembled and pointed at him, her voice as if tearing apart and terrifying: "It's you! So it's you!!"

However, her emotions were too excited, and almost all her attention was focused on Xie Wei, to the point where she didn't even see him. Less than five steps away from her, Shen Lang, with his disheveled hair and gloomy eyes, had already picked up the knife that Xie Wei had thrown to the ground earlier.

Xie Wei's eyes flashed a hint of mocking pity.

Xiao Shu from behind let out a cry of surprise.

The knife was tightly held by one hand and easily penetrated Empress Dowager Xiao's body, penetrating from behind to her chest. When she lowered her head to look, she could even see the blood stained blade surface, reflecting her somewhat bewildered face.

The courtier, who had been constantly scolding before, suddenly seemed to be slapped in the face, and all his words came to a sudden halt without any sound!

On the Tai Chi Hall, only the sound of the blade slowly pulling away from the human body can be heard.

Empress Dowager Xiao stumbled two steps.

The blood on her chest and back couldn't be contained at all, flowing like a spring towards the outside. Finally, she turned around and saw clearly behind her——

What a familiar face is that?

She was her eldest son who was raised by her own hands. She fought against many favored concubines in the palace for him, forced Crown Prince Dingfei, who was less than seven years old, to replace him to death, and even agreed to marry her daughter far away to the Tatars for him

"Lang'er..."

Empress Dowager Xiao saw him standing silently with a knife, but couldn't believe what had just happened. However, the physical pain was so clear that she couldn't comfort herself, it was just a nightmare.

Shen Lang's eyes flashed for a moment of unbearable pain, but in an instant, they became the kind of coldness and ruthlessness unique to emperors. In his eyes, all the people in the world were just plants and trees!

Even if this is his birth mother!

He held his sword and said awkwardly, "The country is in danger, and this time I have wronged Empress Dowager. It's just that what happened back then has nothing to do with my children. Empress Dowager acted recklessly and used the Yan family's life as a threat to force the young Prince Ding Fei to bear the consequences on my behalf! I used to be ignorant of the world, but over the years, I have been constantly thinking about it and constantly thinking about myself. Now that he has returned, it should be time for Empress Dowager Dowager to repent!"

Xie Wei didn't mention it himself, but with every word spoken by Shen Lang and others, they all shook up the past events one after another.

The courtiers have been able to guess the truth from over twenty years ago based on this——

There has never been a loyal ruler or savior. The young Crown Prince Ding Fei did not voluntarily go, but was forced by Empress Dowager Xiao to die in the rebel camp for the safety of the Yan family!

However, to Shen Jie, these words were all shrouded in mist.

He has no idea what Shen Lang is talking about.

As he watched Shen Lang's knife pass through Empress Dowager Xiao's body, there was already a buzzing sound in his head, and he could hardly believe what had happened.

Shen Jiesu came to know that she was not the same person as her imperial brother and mother. But he thought that maintaining blood and family ties would never result in any harm to each other!

Even when Xie Wei said that just now, he didn't think what he said would actually happen.

However, at this moment

He only felt that the emperor standing in front of him had turned into a bloodthirsty beast, and for a moment, it aroused the little blood courage in his chest. He stepped forward and pushed him away, saying, "What are you doing?"

Empress Dowager Xiao is on the brink of death.

Shen Lang's high-sounding words made her feel a great irony!

Shen Jie half knelt down and grabbed her into her arms, calling out one by one, "Mother, Mother!"

Empress Dowager Xiao's eyes were filled with tears.

At the moment of her death, she burst out laughing in agony, whether it was laughing at this absurd heavens, at the so-called royal family, or at her pitiful self: "Hahaha, retribution, retribution, no one can escape! No one can escape -"

The voice abruptly stopped at its sharpest and most intense moment.

Warm blood rushed out of her throat, and she struggled weakly twice before finally collapsing in despair.

Shen Jie cried out, "Mother, Mother..."

But he is just a weak person.

Without the courage to question the imperial brother who killed his mother, nor the courage to seek revenge against Xie Wei, who was the initiator, he could only hold onto Empress Dowager Xiao's body and cry bitterly.

Who would have thought that Shen Lang had already made a choice without even taking a moment before and after!

The courtiers felt palpitations in their hearts.

Even the Tianjiao Yijun who had fought all the way felt unbearable.

Wan Xiuzi was stunned for a while, but then he burst out laughing and caressing his hands. He didn't even care about the wound on his abdomen and raised his finger to the blood pool stained in front of the Tai Chi Hall, excitedly saying, "Did you see it? The Heavenly Decoration Noble! This is the Heavenly Decoration Noble sitting high in the Forbidden City! Even the Rat Generation in the market may not be able to do such a tragic thing that would ruin human relationships! The Heavenly Decoration Noble? I'm sorry, pigs and dogs are better! Hahaha..."

He spat on the ground as he spoke.

A contemptuous attitude, overflowing with words.

Only Xie Wei let out a soft sigh, feeling somewhat regretful: "Death was too easy..."

After the silence around, there were some voices of discussion.

Almost everyone's gaze fell on Shen Lang's face.

He was still holding a blood stained knife in his hand, and he could probably guess what everyone was discussing about him. However, the temperament of the old imperial teacher in front of him had just been fully displayed!

If you don't make a choice, two people will die!

Since that's the case, it's better for him to give Empress Dowager Xiao a good time first.

Shen Lang looked at Xie Wei and said, "You were aware of what happened back then, and it was all the mother's unauthorized advocacy. You were my attendant, but I haven't been aware of it all these years. Why do you need to keep it from me? If you had informed me earlier, I would have issued a decree to the world to punish you and bring justice to you."

He is truly an emperor.

Xie Wei looked at him with a faint smile on his lips, but he didn't answer. He just raised his hand and pointed, "What about her?"

He passed his fingers, and everyone was frightened and scared.

But in the end, most people were just a false alarm.

===Kunning Section 301===

That slender finger ultimately pointed to Xiao Shu, who was dressed in splendid palace attire but had a pale complexion in the back!

Her father, her brother, and her aunt are already lying on the ground

Now, it's finally her turn!

At this point, without having to say another word, everyone already understood that Xie Wei was clearly going to exterminate the Xiao family without leaving any room for mercy! Anyone with this surname will be killed!

Xiao Shu is different from Empress Dowager Xiao. Empress Dowager Xiao is the emperor's biological mother, but she is just the emperor's favored concubine.

For Shen Lang, she was just a tool for venting desires and seeking power.

She knew that if Xie Wei wanted her to die today, her ultimate goal would be tomorrow

But what I have done in this life is nothing but not being manipulated by others.

Why climb up step by step and strive for it, only to get what you can't even control your own life?

Shen Lang approached her step by step with a knife, and Xiao Shu's eyes were filled with tears, but she looked up. She didn't look at Shen Lang or Xie Wei, but at this moment, she looked towards Jiang Xuening, who was staring at her from afar!

The absurd feeling of being teased by fate has never been so strong.

In the first nineteen years of her brief life, she was almost perfect and never even made a big mistake; However, all the changes originated from Yang Zhizhai's accompanying reading. She was wary of Jiang Xuening and framed her as related to the case of Yu Ruyi, but lost her hand, thus forming a grudge.

Now, she is Xie Wei's beloved, and although she has become the emperor's favored concubine, she is not even as good as a prisoner!

Step by step wrong, step by step wrong.

That's all.

As the blade passed through her body, Xiao Shu felt endless coldness, but she finally withdrew her gaze and looked at the merciless emperor in front of her. After all, she lost her previous gentleness and said almost like a curse, "Do you think you can escape?"

Shen Lang never cared about the life or death of this woman.

Hearing her speak such malicious words, her anger surged in her heart. She pulled out a knife and cut her throat, making her unable to make any sound and falling down.

At this point, the most important members of the Xiao family have almost died completely.

Jiang Xuening remembers that in the previous life, it seemed to be the same. Although it was not the same way of dying, the outcome seemed to have little difference.

She has been fighting with Xiao Shu for so many years.

But in fact, no one has ever fought against anyone.

Xiao Shu died first by the rebel sword, and the Xiao family was also annihilated by Xie Wei; And shortly after struggling to survive, she also committed suicide in Kunning Palace

However, in this life, she gave up on striving, while Xiao Shu took a path that was even more crooked than the previous one

As she watched Xiao Shu fall, she couldn't express what she felt in her heart.

I just feel like there's nothing wrong with it.

No one will let go of karmic retribution.

At this moment, what stood in front of everyone was not just Xie Wei, but more like a devil than him. It was clearly the emperor who was originally sitting high on the Golden Luan Hall!

Shen Lang said, "I can give orders to pacify the Xiao family and never tolerate it!"

Xie Wei just smiled with a negative hand and said, "Don't be so indifferent to me. Let's see if the people you're waiting for are here. Time is approaching, isn't it?"

Shen Lang had previously thought he knew something, but now that he was so clear about it, his heart was already in a state of panic.

Kill Empress Dowager Xiao, kill Xiao Shu, he doesn't feel anything.

As long as Xie Wei doesn't immediately take action against him, he may not have the opportunity to turn the tables. It was because he endured humiliation and shyly turned around, saying a lot of flattery to Xie Wei, but unexpectedly Xie Wei also knew his intention!

At this moment, Shen Lang almost thought that the other party would immediately attack him.

But it's also at this moment——

When the Xinzhou army arrived earlier, the sound that everyone had heard once again sounded from a distance in the palace, approaching towards the direction of the Tai Chi Hall from the Shunzhen Gate in the northeast corner.

Without a flag, the road cannot be seen.

Soldiers one after another were wearing only black armor, their military appearance was clean, and they marched extremely fast. There were tens of thousands of people visible, and I don't know how many more left outside the palace could not enter!

And for this army, surrounded by a woman in the center.

The deep purple palace attire was worn on her body, but her face was not painted with powder. The scars at the corners of her eyes were almost the same as her face, and were immediately noticed by everyone.

Jiang Xuening suddenly froze.

She called out, "Your Highness!"

However, as she was about to approach, one hand forcefully grabbed her from the side.

Looking back, Jiang Xuening turned out to be Yan Lin.

He didn't let her come forward, and a hint of dark radiance flowed in his eyes. He only asked softly, "Do you remember what I said to you before?"
