Empress Cao's shrill voice pierced the sky. She spread her arms and laughed at the sky, as arrogant as a demon. "Twenty-five years ago, this empress will show how our beloved Majesty forced me to abdicate. Today, this empress will show the past and let the people of the world feast their eyes on it!"
The tens of thousands of people and all the civil and military officials were stunned and panicked.
"Your Majesty, you can't!" The old officials' knees trembled, their backs stiff as they spoke sincerely. However, what they received in return was a disdainful sneer. She didn't even bother to respond to them.
So many trembling and scorching gazes landed on Xiao Yunyi in shock. Withstanding those gasps of shock, the vein on Xiao Yunyi's forehead twitched a few times. For the first time in twenty years, the Scepter of Fate had actually fallen into his hands. This feeling of destiny that had descended from the heavens made him stare blankly for a few moments. Then, the blood that had been forcefully suppressed and surging for many years surged and gushed out, causing even his eyes to turn red.
He gritted his teeth and controlled his trembling back teeth. He said in the lowest voice, "Erchen … yes!"
With Xiao Yunyi's order, the elites of the Dragon City Guards under his command immediately turned their swords, and those who were hiding in the dark received the signal and rushed out from the alleys around the Meridian Gate, surrounding the entire Meridian Gate. Those old officials with gray hair had their backs pressed by the tips of swords. Zhao Bin held the unconscious Tian Ze Emperor in tears. Cai Bin, who was running for her life, was shot in the shoulder by Yongchengwei. She was dragged back to be tortured and humiliated by Empress Cao. In the crowd, the children's cries and screams resounded in everyone's ears. Everyone was terrified and felt threatened. However, when they saw the cold soldiers surrounding them, they hurriedly covered their mouths and only dared to let out uncontrollable sobs from their throats as tears flowed into their stomachs.
The aura of a new dynasty fell on everyone's head so plainly.
Witnessing this scene with her own eyes, Ning Shu's face paled and she said in shock, "Xiao Yunyi! Do you know what you are doing?! "
Hearing Ning Shu's question, Xiao Yunyi's back stiffened. He turned around slowly, his burning eyes constricting before they finally landed on Ning Shu. He raised the corner of his mouth, lowered his eyes, and said in a low voice, "Can't you see what I'm doing? I've been waiting for this opportunity for so many years. Now it's finally in my hands. Shu 'er, aren't you happy for me? I did what I said to you when we were young. If it were you in the past, you would definitely be happy for me, right? "
Ning Shu was so angry that her lips were trembling as she stared at the people who were stabbed because they ran away in fear of death. She clenched her fists and said, "Xiao Yunyi, no matter if it's the current me or the past me, if you think that I'll be happy for you, then you've never known me! In the past, you said that you would rely on your own hard work and your own hands to make people look at you in a different light and become a person above others! That's a pair of hands that should be used to wipe their own sweat, not stained with the blood of others! " She took a deep breath, her voice softening as she pleaded, "Xiao Yunyi, can you stop? Don't make me look down on you. "
Cao Hou's angry roar interrupted, "Yunyi, my son, why are you still talking nonsense with this girl! What she wants today is the lives of you and my son! Kill her! I order you to kill her immediately! This despicable girl, I can't tolerate her taking another breath in this world! "
Xiao Yunyi's eyes trembled.
"Good! Good! Good! You can't do it, right? Then Mother will help you! " Cao Hou squeezed out a thick sound of disdain from the bottom of his throat. He snatched a long sword from the hand of a guard at the side, and with a malicious sneer, he viciously stabbed it towards Ning Shu's heart.
Very few people knew that when she was still a young girl, in order to become the most invincible mother of the nation in the future, she had also learned some riding and archery skills, as well as the basics of swords and sabers. However, after so many years, she had not found a place to use them, until today.
