The empress called her sister, and the goddess was willing to enter the mortal world

Chapter 128 Blood in the Palace

"Eunuch Wang."

When he heard His Majesty calling him, Eunuch Wang went in immediately, "What do you want, Your Majesty?"

"Kill all those in the palace who maliciously spread rumors about Ziyou."

Eunuch Wang was shocked. This was not a small number. He said cautiously, "Your Majesty, there are too many people..."

There was no warmth in Nan Wanxing's eyes. "Kill."

"Yes." Eunuch Wang slowly backed out.

This move was expected by Eunuch Wang. His Majesty would never let those gossipers live, but he did not expect that there would be so many brainless people talking behind his back.

It's not his fault this time.

For a moment, screams of fear and pleas for mercy were heard in the palace.

The faces of those palace servants who spread the rumors were filled with fear and despair. The news of the massacre spread quickly in the palace. The palace servants who had not yet been killed were all worried, fearing that they would be the next.

The empress's orders were carried out mercilessly, and the lives of the palace maids were lost one by one in the flash of swords and sabers. The blood dyed the ground red, and also dyed the hearts of every palace maid red.

After the killing, the palace was silent and silent. No one dared to slander the goddess anymore, not even the slightest thought of disrespect. The last time there was such a bloody scene was when the empress seized the throne.

The empress did not deliberately conceal such a large-scale purge, but deliberately allowed the news to reach the ears of ministers. She wanted to make those who felt guilty unable to sleep or eat.

Nan Wanxing returned to her residence and looked at the cat lantern on the bed. There was no trace of the previous sharpness in her eyes. She stroked the lantern, and before she could recall the past, she fell into a deep sleep.

I slept very soundly, without even having a dream, and slept till dawn.

Nan Wanxing was still woken up by the light outside. He was a little bit unbelievable. He wondered if his sleep was too good recently and he could sleep until dawn every day.

She shifted her gaze to the cat lantern, "You can't really help people fall asleep, can you?"

Then she shook her head, thinking that she had been tense for too long and started to have wild thoughts.

She glanced out the window, her eyes suddenly becoming sharp. She still had to deal with a group of people today, which was really annoying.

In the solemn and dignified court, in the magnificent palace, the empress sat on the dragon throne, gazing at the ministers below with sharp eyes.

The atmosphere today was a bit scary. No one stood up to speak. They had all heard about the purge in the palace, and no one wanted to offend the empress at this time.

It seems that they have a strong sense of crisis, Nan Wanxing sneered in his heart.

Her voice, which was intimidating without anger, resounded throughout the court. "I heard that someone slandered the goddess behind her back. This is really disrespectful. The goddess is the ruler of all worlds. How can I allow you to make such cruel remarks?"

Do the ministers dare to say anything else?

One by one, they expressed their opinions, "We dare not."

"Don't you dare?"

Nan Wanxing glanced at the eunuch Wang beside him, and he immediately signaled his men to bring up the evidence.

"Everyone should identify themselves and don't let me say everything." Nan Wanxing looked at those trembling people with interest.

Some ministers who had read the film found that it had nothing to do with them and breathed a sigh of relief, while those who were guilty of their crimes felt that their lives had come to an end after reading the film.

A minister saw that it clearly stated the time and place, what he said, and even who the witnesses were. Cold sweat soaked his back. It turned out that the emperor had always placed spies around him. He had underestimated the emperor's vigilance.

Not only him, but several other ministers also turned pale after seeing this. It turned out that he was not the only one who had spies in the palace, and His Majesty had never trusted them. This time the empress wanted to kill them as a warning to the rest, and they would have no chance of survival.

The officials did not know who the evidence pointed to. Although no one was clearly named, no one thought that the person involved would not admit it. After all, the death of one person and the annihilation of an entire clan are two different concepts.

Sure enough, some ministers stood in front one after another. Their bodies were not as straight as before and they looked lonely, but no one sympathized with them. After being officials for so many years, didn’t they know that disaster comes from the mouth?

"It seems that you admit that the person mentioned above is you?"

The ministers standing in front immediately knelt down and said, "We know we are wrong and are willing to die to atone for our sins. We only ask Your Majesty to spare our families."

"allow."

When the guards were about to take the person away, Nan Wanxing waved his hand and they retreated.

"I think none of my subjects are afraid of blood. Now that we are all here, you can commit suicide here." She tapped the armrest of the dragon throne with her fingertips, her tone somewhat nonchalant.

The already desperate eyes of the few people were filled with a hint of fear. Asking others to do it and doing it yourself are completely different concepts...

The hands of several people holding swords were shaking slightly.

"You have to be quick, accurate and ruthless, otherwise you won't be able to swallow it in one breath and will be in pain for a long time before you die." Nan Wanxing reminded them kindly.

The ministers looked at the empress with a hint of fear in their eyes. It was because they had lived in happiness for too long and had forgotten the empress's original methods.

When the empress's patience was almost exhausted, several people finally took action. However, one person's force was not enough and he cut the person's neck, but he did not die.

"If you don't listen to me, the result will be a life worse than death." Nan Wanxing leisurely admired the man's endless struggle in pain before his death.

"I have warned them, but someone still won't listen. He seems to be in a lot of pain. Do you think I should help him?"

The ministers could not bear to look at the man's miserable state, and said in unison: "If you don't listen to your majesty, you will suffer the consequences."

Nan Wanxing pulled the corner of his mouth, half-smiled and said: "The smell of blood is not pleasant, everyone please don't contribute this smell anymore, I don't like it."

The people present felt that the days passed by were like years. With His Majesty's obvious intimidation, who would dare to have other ideas? "I dare not."

Nan Wanxing stopped playing and spoke in a deep voice like the Lord of Hell, which made the ministers shudder for no reason. "I hope you can remember what happened today. The dignity of the goddess should not be offended. If anyone offends again, all nine clans will be destroyed."

As soon as these words came out, the court fell silent. This was the first time they heard His Majesty say that nine clans would be exterminated. Even when someone tried to stop the empress from ascending the throne, only three clans were exterminated. After they came to their senses, they quickly replied, "Your Highness, please remember this."

It seems that the relationship between the goddess and His Majesty is even more advanced than he had guessed.

Nan Wanxing returned to the imperial study and said to Eunuch Wang, "According to the law, the families of the ministers who died today can no longer stay at the foot of the imperial city. Find someone to pretend to be a horse bandit and kill them all on their way out."

"Yes."

This was the first time that Eunuch Wang saw His Majesty act like this. It seemed that the goddess was really His Majesty's Achilles' heel.
