"How can such a promiscuous woman be worthy of being my concubine? I shall punish her with the death penalty! Everyone with the surname Wu shall be executed! "The moment he opened his mouth, all nine members of the Wu family were killed, and their blood flowed like a river …
August 15th, the Mid-Autumn Festival, the day when all the families reunited. It was also the day when the new monarch of the Southern Dynasty, Shang Litian, ascended to the throne. Concubine Chen, who had performed meritorious deeds in the court, was waiting for the imperial edict to bestow her the title of Empress. However, she did not expect the edict to be annulled!
Once the edict was annulled, corpses littered the floor of the Phoenix Palace. The originally magnificent palace was now dyed red, and the nauseating stench of blood filled the air!
"Your Majesty, the person you want to kill is me. Please let my elderly parents go!" Wu Chen 'er knelt in front of Shang Litian's golden boots and begged.
"Today, none of you shall leave this place alive!" Shang Litian's voice was as cold and merciless as hell.
"Your Majesty!" A gentle voice came from the door. Ye Zi, who was as beautiful as a sickly beauty, walked in.
"My beloved concubine!" Shang Litian's cold demeanor was gone. He walked forward with a gentle expression and helped Ye Zi Qing to sit at the side. He then shouted at the palace maids, "How dare you! How dare you bring Concubine Chen 'er to such a place! "
Ye Zi quickly stretched out her gentle hand to stop him. "Your Majesty, please don't blame them. I came here on my own accord!" Her gaze shifted to the face of Wu Chen 'er who was kneeling on the ground. "No matter what, Chen' er is still Chen 'er's good sister. Moreover, Uncle Wu and Aunt Wu have also treated Chen' er like their own daughter. It is only right for Chen 'er to come and send them off one last time!"
Her voice was extremely gentle, like a weeping beauty. Anyone who heard it could not help but feel pity for her. Shang Litian's heart ached as he caressed her.
However, Ye Zi Qing's voice was like the voice of a demon in Wu Chen 'er's heart. If it wasn't for this' good sister, 'how could she, Wu Chen' er, have fallen to such a state where her reputation was completely ruined? Moreover, she even implicated her entire clan!
"Your Majesty, please consider the fact that this old official has served the country all his life. Please allow this old official to die in their place!" Wu Chen 'er's father, Wu Siwen, kowtowed to Shang Litian continuously. His forehead was bleeding.
"If the emperor wants me to die, I have no choice but to die! Tianming, what are you waiting for? "Shang Litian was unmoved, and there was no warmth in his voice.
"Your Majesty, this old minister only wishes to die in their place … …" Before he could finish speaking, a cold glint of a sword had already slashed at his neck. Blood instantly splattered everywhere and his unfinished words came to an abrupt end!
"Master! Old … "Madam Liu wanted to pounce on him, but Ye Tianming's sword had already slashed her neck halfway. She didn't even have the chance to make a sound before she followed the Old Master!
"Father! Mother! " Ye Tianming was the number one warrior of the Shang Nation. His sword was so fast that it only took a blink of an eye. When Wu Chen 'er came back to her senses, her parents were already lying in a pool of blood. No matter how she called out, her parents could no longer hear her voice!
The pain of her family being exterminated, the tragic death of her parents, all of this stemmed from the man she once loved the most, and the good sister she once regarded as family! Wu Chen 'er felt as if her body and mind were being torn apart alive!
"Emperor, this concubine and you are husband and wife, my parents are also your parents, how could you be so heartless? Ye Ziqing! Ye Tianming! My parents treated you like their own flesh and blood, how dare you bite the hand that feeds you! Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning? "She screamed at them and was about to pounce on Ye Zi Qing!
