Chapter 242 A Familiar Scene, Restoring the Reputation of a Tyrant
"Innocent?"
Li Hanshan sneered, his face full of sarcasm, and said mockingly:
"You should be glad that you are a woman now, otherwise you would have been dead long ago."
When Zhao Wanrong heard this, her face turned pale, her body trembled violently, her hands clenched into fists, and her beautiful eyes were full of sadness.
"You beasts! You are totally devoid of conscience!"
At this time, a beautiful woman with tears in her eyes, like a broken jar, glared at Li Hanshan, and cursed:
"And that tyrant emperor, he actually arrested my son and tortured him in prison. He will get his retribution sooner or later!"
Li Hanshan smiled slightly: "Don't worry, madam, you will see His Majesty soon. I hope you can still maintain this attitude in front of His Majesty."
Thinking of what will happen next, a trace of fear appeared in the eyes of the beautiful woman, and she gritted her teeth and said: "You, the minions of the tyrant, will definitely not have a good end!"
"Take them all back to the palace." Li Hanshan was too lazy to argue with her, and waved his hand to signal Zhao Wanrong and the group of women to be taken to the palace.
Zhao Wanrong did not struggle, and let the Dark God Guards escort her and others into the palace.
After all, in the face of absolute power, any resistance is futile.
The so-called dignity is even more ridiculous.
Her eyes were swollen from crying, her face was numb, and her clothes were soaked with tears without her realizing it.
..........
At this moment, a large number of cultivators had already gathered outside the Zhao Mansion, densely packed, tens of thousands of them.
"Oh my God! What happened inside the Zhao Mansion?"
Everyone was in doubt, seeing the fire rising into the sky and thunderclouds rolling inside the Zhao Mansion, a doomsday scene.
"I heard that the Zhao family held a banquet tonight and invited all the major families. How could there be such a big commotion?" A cultivator asked in confusion.
"I don't know about this." The companion next to him shook his head, pondered for a moment and suddenly said: "Could it be that someone attacked the Zhao family?"
"No, the commotion was too loud. It was not a sneak attack at all, but a fair and open attack." Another companion denied.
"That's true."
The cultivator scratched his head and looked confused.
At this time, a team of dark god guards rushed from a distance.
"This is... the dark god guards!" someone exclaimed.
"Why are they here? Did the Zhao family lose and be wiped out by the Dark God Guards?"
"That's impossible. The power of these families is spread all over the Qin Dynasty. If they move one, the whole body will be affected. Your Majesty will not wipe them out so easily..."
"What are they doing? Are they here to support?"
Everyone was talking about it, puzzled.
The Dark God Guards were very fast and arrived in a blink of an eye.
Many cultivators dodged and made way.
The Dark God Guards were famous and frightening.
Soon, the Dark God Guards surrounded the Zhao Mansion.
Li Hanshan slowly appeared in front of everyone.
He was covered in blood and walked out of the Zhao Mansion step by step. He looked around indifferently and said indifferently:
"The Zhao family and other families held a banquet here with the intention of rebellion. The evidence is conclusive. We are following the order of Your Majesty to arrest these remnants. You should retreat quickly, otherwise you will be killed without mercy."
His voice was icy cold, like the whisper of the Nine Nether Demon, revealing a chill.
Suddenly, the surroundings fell into dead silence.
No one said a word.
"Wow!"
The next moment, there was an uproar all around, and all the cultivators' faces changed drastically. Many people were even panicked, gasping for air, and their bodies were cold.
All these noble families rebelled?
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
"How could these noble families rebel?"
"These noble families are all thousand-year-old noble families. They have been developing in Daqin for so long. How could they do such a treasonous thing as rebellion?"
"I don't believe it..."
The cultivators around were talking about it, and many of them shook their heads, not believing what they heard.
Only the stupidest lunatics could do such a thing as rebellion.
How could these noble families rebel so blatantly? At most, they were just venting their dissatisfaction.
Many people suspected that Li Hanshan was talking nonsense, but they didn't dare to speak loudly because the Dark God Guards were right in front of them.
And whether they believed it or not, the facts were in front of them.
The Zhao family was completely slaughtered, leaving no one alive. Only Zhao Wanrong and other women were left standing there alone, looking pitiful.
Everything was clear, the Zhao family was really destroyed. Other families were no exception, and all the heads of the families were killed.
"But... these families are top families, with thousands of years of inheritance, rich heritage, and many masters in the family. How could they be destroyed by thousands of Dark God Guards?"
Everyone was talking in shock, with an unbelievable look on their faces. Some people even rubbed their eyes, wondering if they were hallucinating.
"The Dark God Guards are getting more and more terrifying..."
.......
Everyone was silent.
"Let's go!" Li Hanshan ignored the discussion of the crowd and waved his hand.
Soon, Li Hanshan and others took the Zhao family women to the direction of the palace and disappeared in the night.
After the Dark God Guards left, these people gradually recovered.
"This Zhao family... is finished!"
Some cultivators who were originally friendly with the Zhao family sighed repeatedly.
"Alas, not only the Zhao family, but all the families in Chang'an City are probably finished this time. After so many years, they finally fell. Not only did they lose thousands of years of inheritance, but they also lost the entire family."
Many people sighed with emotion.
"But... Daqin is still facing so many powerful foreign countries, but Your Majesty is killing people at this moment. Isn't it inappropriate?"
Someone whispered, worried.
After this, everyone was silent for a long time.
No one knew what His Majesty wanted to do, but the crisis of Daqin has not been settled yet, and it is unwise to hold such a massacre at this time.
"I think Your Majesty is just taking advantage of the situation!" Suddenly, a young man snorted coldly, shook his head, and looked very understanding:
"Your Majesty has always been afraid of the strength of these families and didn't want them to grow, so he deliberately found an excuse to eliminate these families."
Hearing the young man's analysis, many people nodded suddenly and showed their approval.
"Your Majesty is good in everything, but he is too lustful and suspicious. He has almost killed all the prominent figures in Daqin..."
"Yes...ah!" Someone sighed, looking helpless.
"Your Majesty is indeed stupid on this point!"
.......
The sky was slightly bright.
The Dark Guards escorted thousands of prisoner cars to the palace.
These prisoner cars held women crying like pear blossoms in the rain, with beautiful faces, gorgeous clothes, and good temperament. They were all the direct descendants of aristocratic families.
"Your Majesty, it's unjust, unjust!" A woman with a slender figure and a peach-like face knelt on the prisoner car, crying and begging for mercy.
"Your Majesty, you can't do this!"
"Your Majesty, please spare my life!"
"Your Majesty, I am willing to serve you as a slave for the rest of my life!"
In the prisoner cars, thousands of women from aristocratic families kept kowtowed and prayed, crying and begging.
These women from aristocratic families were all delicate beauties, who were spoiled and pampered on weekdays. They had never experienced such cruel things.
"Noisy!"
Li Hanshan's eyes flickered and he shouted coldly.
Instantly, infinite black light burst out, turning into a huge net covering the prison car, instantly trapping these noble women, and no sound was heard.
"Alas..."
Looking at this scene, many monks who were watching sighed.
This scene was so familiar.
It reminded them of the time when His Majesty slaughtered all the scholars of the Hanwen Academy in the city, and they had a new understanding of the cruelty and bloodthirstiness of this tyrant.
Once these noble women were brought into the palace, their fate could be imagined.
This scene was sad and infuriating, but it was useless.
Even those monks who had already supported Qin Mu began to doubt their choice at this moment, and couldn't help but curse in their hearts:
"Timid monarch!"
