I saw with my own eyes that corpses that were frozen and stiff were thrown into large pits like garbage. When the pits were almost full, the soldiers took shovels to fill the pits.
This shocking scene greatly shocked Zhao Rui.
Although she was also ill-fated, she wandered around several times when she was a child and finally found refuge with her distant relative Zhao Xuanji, who used him to send her to the East Palace. However, Zhao Rui grew up in fine clothes and fine food, and had never experienced such suffering in the world.
She said with some disbelief: "Thousands of people!? Just died like this!?"
"In this world, human life is the most despised thing."
Li Chen looked at Zhao Rui and said: "I always only kill those who deserve to be killed, but some people have spent their whole lives holding brushes and reading sages' books, and countless innocent people have died because of them.
.”
Zhao Rui pursed her lips, not daring to respond to these words.
She could feel the suppressed anger in Li Chen's chest, which was directed at Zhao Xuanji and herself.
Not sure whether it was because of the cold or fear, Zhao Rui's body was trembling slightly.
At this moment, a large group of soldiers wearing Yulin Guard armor came flying from a distance.
The leader was none other than Su Pingbei.
Su Pingbei ran all the way in the direction of Li Chen. When he got close, he jumped off his horse, knelt on the snow and said: "Su Pingbei, the last general, sees His Royal Highness the Thousand Years Old."
"How did you know that I am here? The information is quite good." Li Chen said.
"The general sent someone to the East Palace before and was told that His Highness and the Crown Prince's concubine had left the palace. Then the Jin Yiwei informed the General about the whereabouts of His Highness."
Su Pingbei replied respectfully.
Li Chen nodded and did not take this matter too seriously. He was in the capital. If Su Pingbei couldn't find him here, he could retire early.
In comparison, he was more concerned about Su Pingbei's purpose and asked, "But has Zhao Jianye's affairs been settled?"
Su Pingbei's eyes flashed with excitement, and he said: "My father took action personally, and with the order of His Highness the Crown Prince, Zhao Jianye did not resist. He and his confidants who participated in this evil act all
The general has already brought him here."
"Very good."
Li Chen said indifferently: "Bring the people up."
Su Pingbei stood up and raised his hand, and from the ranks behind him, soldiers came up escorting more than a dozen prisoners.
The leader was a tall man with a majestic appearance, and he had the air of someone who had been on top of others for a long time.
"Kneel down!"
Su Pingbei scolded and kicked Zhao Jianye on the knee. Zhao Jianye grunted and dwarfed, but did not kneel down.
Zhao Jianye looked at Li Chen coldly and sneered: "Why should I kneel?"
"It is a grave sin not to kneel before the prince!" Su Pingbei scolded.
"Ha ha!"
Zhao Jianye laughed loudly and said: "I am an abandoned son. Whether I kneel or not is a dead word, so why do I want you to be satisfied?"
After saying that, Zhao Jianye stared at Li Chen and said ferociously: "Prince, you can kill or behead him as you please. If I, Zhao Jianye, frown, I am not a good man!"
Li Chen said indifferently: "Your end is indeed death, but you have forgotten that there are many kinds of death. Some are pleasant, just one knife, and you won't even feel the pain, but there are others that will make you
You cannot seek life, you cannot seek death, and even death has become a luxury wish, and you are tortured to death bit by bit in pain."
When Zhao Jianye heard this, his face was full of sinisterness, and he gritted his teeth and said: "What kind of man is he who only tortures people? If you have the guts, just be more direct!"
Li Chen has always been too lazy to waste words on such a reckless man.
"First, let me choose the ten nails on his hands."
