The Empress Kneels in Her Palace to Admit Her Mistakes After Slaying Her Ways in the Female-Oriented
Chapter 57 The Duke of Ren's Mansion deserves to be exterminated!
After reading the imperial edict, a smug look reappeared on Wang's face.
Although he didn't issue the orders for this power of life and death, he could still be a participant, watching others obediently die under the imperial decree.
This feeling still gave him a strange sense of pleasure.
He carefully put away the imperial edict and said calmly, "General, receive the decree."
Before Ren Tianye could react, he waved his hand lightly, and the little eunuch behind him immediately brought over a pot of wine.
The wine pot is made of pure silver, with intricate engravings, making it both exquisite and luxurious. The wine cup is also extraordinary, likely made of glass, and engraved with text.
Eunuch Wang had someone pour the wine from the wine pot into the glass. It was some kind of poisonous wine, and through the semi-transparent glass, it rippled with a faint red color.
Like the color of blood.
It's terrifying.
However, Ren Tianye, who was sitting on the tiger chair, frowned slightly.
He understood the meaning of the imperial edict. This was his first conversation with Empress Xiao Mingzhao since he transmigrated. Even though it was just a written expression, it gave him a better understanding of Empress Xiao Mingzhao.
It was almost exactly as I had expected.
Without any mishaps.
This makes it so that not even a ripple can stir up any emotion in one's heart.
However, she became interested in Tuoba Xiangtai, the third prince of the barbarian tribe, mentioned in Empress Xiao Mingzhao's imperial edict.
Cloud Ridge City!
Tuoba Shota wants Yunji City!
That would prove that the movements of Tuoba Xiangtai and even the barbarians had deviated from his previous predictions.
He originally thought that, given the barbarian's style of doing things, they would definitely not hesitate to raise an army and march south after obtaining Shanhe City.
They crossed the Yellow River and headed straight for the capital.
At that time, with Empress Xiao Mingzhao captured in hand, the entire Great Yu Kingdom would be hesitant to act rashly.
But I never expected...
The barbarians, surprisingly, did not move south.
Instead, they plotted to seize Yunji City.
Yunji City is the throat of the barbarian's southward passage. Once Yunji City is captured, it is almost certain that they will head towards the currently undefended northern frontier.
"I underestimated these barbarians. They have been enemies of the Great Yu for generations, but now that they have gained power, they have actually managed to suppress their anger and head straight for the northern frontier."
"It seems that not all barbarians are simple-minded and physically strong."
"He does possess some wisdom."
"Can……"
A hint of sharpness flashed in Ren Tianye's eyes: "Do you think you can just take my Yunji City as you please?"
"If you dare to come, you will never return."
"Let's just obediently head south and capture Xiao Mingzhao."
Having experienced the battle with the Imperial Guards, Ren Tianye was full of confidence in the Yunji City that Zhan Shubai had built.
This magnificent city, with its advantageous location, can withstand an attack by an army of 100,000 with only a few thousand people, and can hold out for at least several months.
The barbarians' plot to seize Yunji City is nothing but wishful thinking.
"Ren Tianye..."
Eunuch Wang's words interrupted Ren Tianye's thoughts: "Why haven't you made any moves yet?"
"His Majesty personally issued the decree for you."
"I will hasten your death."
"Why aren't you surrendering and drinking this poisoned wine? What are you waiting for?"
"Waiting for the flowers to bloom?"
Ren Tianye smiled slightly, winked at Sun Xiang, and said with a smile, "This wine looks excellent. It has a bright color and a rich aroma. I can smell it even from this far away."
"Such fine wine should not be left unrewarded to our guests who have come from afar; it would make me seem stingy."
"This general is never a stingy person, so please drink first, sir."
Sun Xiang had already held Wang Gonggong down again, and was about to force the wine cup down Wang Gonggong's throat. This frightened Wang Gonggong, whose complexion had finally regained some color, and made him pale and bloodless again.
"You, you, Ren Tianye, how dare you..."
"This was bestowed upon you by His Majesty. Do you know that His Majesty knew you had rebelled but did not hold you accountable, nor did he touch your Duke Ren's mansion."
"His Majesty only gave you a chance to repent because he felt that you loved her too deeply."
"His Majesty will always hold a place for you in his heart. What an honor that is."
"You don't want to die, but you want me to die?"
"Harming a high-ranking official of the imperial court is a crime punishable by the extermination of three generations of one's family. Are you determined to implicate your entire Duke Ren's mansion, resulting in the execution of your entire clan?"
Ren Tianye's smile grew even wider.
"What you say makes sense. You must have come from afar to win Xiao Mingzhao's heart, yet you died because of her. Xiao Mingzhao must have had feelings for you too."
"This honor should be enjoyed by your father-in-law."
"Please, father-in-law, have a drink!"
"Yes!" Sun Xiang exerted force and poured the wine directly into Wang Gonggong's mouth, turning Wang Gonggong's bloodless face red.
Her face turned red from being choked.
His eyes were filled with fear.
He issued imperial edicts countless times throughout his life, and every time the recipients were obedient and subservient, not only carrying out the emperor's orders but also showering him with benefits.
But now...
But he drank the poisoned wine!
Poisonous wine that won't kill!
It should be noted that the poisoned wine had been switched.
Originally, it was a poisonous wine from the palace that could kill quickly, but he accepted silver from the fake young master of the Duke of Ren's mansion and replaced it with a poisonous wine that would cause the intestines to rot and the person to suffer humiliation for half a day before dying.
But now, he drank it?
Fear, pain, collapse, and finally it all turned into hysteria!
"Ren Tianye, you have harmed an angel, a crime deserving the execution of your entire family. Now that you have done this, His Majesty will no longer consider your deep affection and will surely hold your Duke Ren's mansion accountable."
"Your dignified Duke Ren's Mansion, a century-old marshal's mansion, is about to fall into complete ruin."
"Even if I die, you won't get away with it."
These words made Ren Tianye frown.
Only three clans?
The order was given: "Sun Xiang."
"Your subordinate is here."
"That's just a pot of wine. We only offered Eunuch Wang such a small cup. It makes us seem too stingy. I taught you long ago that one should not be so calculating."
"yes!"
After his trip to Shanhe City, Sun Xiang seemed to have unlocked his full potential, his comprehension suddenly becoming incredibly high. He immediately restrained the struggling eunuch Wang and took the pot of wine from him.
Just pour it in.
Eunuch Wang's face turned even redder.
They desperately tried to stop him, and kept pouring him alcohol, making his face flushed red. At first glance, it seemed to have a rejuvenating effect.
The fear in his eyes intensified, and his words became even more hysterical.
"Ren Tianye, you have insulted an angel; your crime deserves the extermination of your entire family!"
"The entire Duke Ren's mansion must die."
"Not a single chicken or dog will be spared."
Ren Tianye was still somewhat dissatisfied.
Only nine generations of relatives?
Why not execute ten generations of their family?
He then said coldly, "Xiao Mingzhao is nothing but a lowly maid born to a prostitute, yet she usurped the throne and, for her own selfish reasons, massacred the Chifeng Army, causing chaos throughout the land, making life unbearable for the people, and plunging them into misery."
"As the commander of the Duke's Mansion for a century, although I obey the imperial court, I serve the people above all else. How can I stand idly by and allow Xiao Mingzhao to commit such rebellious acts?"
"I am acting on my father's orders to seize opportunities in the northern frontier, to raise troops, and one day we will storm the capital, kill Xiao Mingzhao, and restore the century-old reputation of the Duke of Ren's mansion!"
Eunuch Wang's eyes widened.
"So it turns out your Duke Ren's mansion had this plot all along! You should exterminate your entire clan, ten generations of your family!"
Ren Tianye let out a breath.
I feel so comfortable now!
