Long Chen's remarks completely subverted the minister's views.
For a long time, the emperor has preached the divine right of kings. The emperor is the son of destiny. Anyone who betrays the emperor is betraying heaven.
Long Chen openly declared that the emperor was just a gangster leader with many people.
The minister was dumbfounded and didn't know how to refute this traitor.
Long Chen slowly sat back on the dragon chair and sneered: "I am sitting on the dragon chair. As long as I am willing, I can proclaim myself emperor today and become the new emperor of Daliang!"
"Of course, I disdain anything from the Li family!"
This statement once again stunned everyone in the hall, even Yu Fuguo was shocked.
Long Chen worked side by side with the empress in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, but no matter how side by side, there should be a limit to his words and deeds.
Even if he is sitting on the throne, he still dares to openly talk about proclaiming himself emperor.
Does the empress really not mind at all?
Li Zhaoliang looked at Long Chen and didn't know what to do.
Long Chen raised his hand slightly, Gan Zhen beheaded the ministers who refused to surrender on the spot, and the ground of Fengtian Palace was stained with blood.
Long Chen didn't have the slightest fondness for these courtiers in Nanliang.
When the Long family was in trouble, no one came forward to speak out.
After the ghosts took over Jinling, except for Huai Yi and a few ministers who died for their loyalty, everyone else survived.
People like this who are pretending to be loyal today should all be killed!
Li Zhaoliang looked back at the heads on the ground and collapsed to the ground in fear.
"King Wu, spare your life... have mercy on me, I... I have a good relationship with your Long family, and I am an old acquaintance with my late father, King Wu..."
Li Zhaoliang started to have a relationship.
Long Chen sneered and said: "Since we are old acquaintances, why didn't you say anything to stop it?"
Li Zhaoliang cried and cried: "Li Chengdao is tyrannical. If I try to stop him, I will be dead."
Long Chen nodded slightly and said: "That's right. If you try to dissuade me, you will be dead."
"Then let's die together, and beheaded at Caishikou!"
"Behead all her concubines and family members, leaving no one behind!"
"As well as Li Chengdao's descendants, all the Li family royal family, all be beheaded!"
Back then, Li Chengdao wiped out the Long family. Today, Long Chen will shed a river of blood!
After Gan Zhen received the order, Wu Jian came out and worshiped: "Young General, let me do it!"
Wu Jian was the one who experienced it, and his hatred was no less than Long Chen's.
"Okay, Uncle Wu, go!"
Wu Jian walked down, grabbed Li Zhaoliang's hair and dragged him out. The dragon robe pulled out a long blood mark from the blood on the ground, pointing directly at the palace gate.
Long Chen was sitting on the dragon chair. The officials on the left were trembling, and no one dared to move.
The Long family army followed the order and captured all Li Zhaoliang's queen, concubines, and heirs, as well as Li Chengdao's evil descendants.
The rest of the Li family royal family were all captured and taken to Caishikou.
The people who had just returned to the city heard that something happened in the palace, and then the Long family army opened a guillotine at Caishikou.
The people thought that the Eastern Zhou Dynasty had invaded again, and they were too frightened to enter.
The tens of thousands of troops brought by Li Zhaoliang have been demobilized, and the generals of Xichang have returned to their respective armies.
Wu Jian ordered the people to go to the market entrance to watch the beheadings, and those present were given food and rice.
When they heard that rice was distributed, the people were short of food and gathered at the entrance of the vegetable market.
Li Zhaoliang was kneeling in the middle, next to him was the queen, and then Li Chengdao's heirs. Almost a thousand people from the Li family's royal family were kneeling.
Wu Jian saw people arriving and sent someone to invite Long Chen.
The soldiers entered the Fengtian Hall and paid homage: "To King Wu, General Wu is ready. Please ask King Wu to supervise the execution."
Long Chen stood up slowly and said: "My lords, please come with me to see your Emperor Liang off."
Gan Zhen mentioned Huairen, and the rebel army escorted the minister to Caishikou.
When they arrived at the market entrance, they separated the crowd and Long Chen sat on the high platform.
Everyone looked at Long Chen on the high platform in surprise, not knowing what to do.
"Isn't the one in the middle the emperor? Do you want to kill the emperor?"
"Who is that person on the high platform? Does he want to kill the emperor?"
"Did Dong Zhou come calling again?"
"Let's run away, or we'll get killed."
"The grain and rice haven't been distributed yet. I have no food to eat."
While the people were discussing, Long Chen spoke to everyone.
"Fellow folks, I believe someone knows who I am!"
"I am Long Chen, the fifth son of the former general Long Ye!"
After saying the name, the people in the audience were shocked. The legendary butcher, the God of Death, actually appeared in front of them.
Long Chen's thunderous voice was heard clearly by everyone.
"Why did I conquer Daliang, why did I conquer Jinling, why did I kill Li Zhaoliang here!"
"Because Li Chengdao framed the Long family's army and framed my Long family!"
"In the battle of Bailang Mountain, one hundred thousand heroic souls of our Long family army died tragically, and more than 90 members of my Long family were killed!"
"This hatred, this hatred, I will take revenge today!"
Long Chen spoke with great anger, the tragedy of that year was still vivid in his mind.
The people in the audience were dumbfounded.
"Didn't the Long Family Army betray?"
"Listen to this, Long Chen defected to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty because Li Chengdao was sorry for the Long family."
"Who knows, isn't Li Chengdao dead?" Bayi Chinese website
"Only the living have the mouth to tell stories, while the dead only have the chance to be framed."
The people were half-believing and dubious. The stories they had heard over the years were all about betrayal by the Long family.
Long Chen said that the Long family did not betray, but that Li Chengdao framed the Long family, and the people could not accept it immediately.
"Today, I will use the blood of the Li family royal family to pay tribute to the heroic souls of our Long family and the Long family army!"
Long Chen left the scene in person, holding a big knife in his hand and walked behind Li Zhaoliang.
Feeling Long Chen approaching, Li Zhaoliang shivered with fear and begged: "King Wu, please spare your life, Long Chen, I gave you candy when you were a child..."
"Queen...the princess even hugged you."
The queen next to her cried miserably and begged: "Long Chen, please spare us..."
There were tears in Long Chen's eyes, and he laughed loudly: "When my mother and sisters were beheaded, did anyone show mercy? They were buried in the toilet and humiliated after their death!"
The broadsword fell, and Long Chen killed Li Zhaoliang and the Queen with one strike.
The two heads fell to the ground and rolled over. Long Chen inserted the big knife into the ground and said, "Uncle Wu, it's your turn!"
Wu Jian pulled out his sword and started killing Li Chengdao's prince and princess.
The head rolled down, and other swordsmen started to cut at the same time. More than a thousand royals were quickly beheaded, and the market entrance was covered with blood.
The people watching were frightened.
Long Chen sat back on the high platform and said loudly: "From now on, there will be no more Nanliang in the world. From today on, you are the people of Great Zhou!"
"Send an order to distribute food and help the people!"
The Long family army immediately took out military rations to help the people who had just returned to the city.
After getting grain and rice, the people were very happy.
As common people, they care more about what they eat for their next meal.
As for who becomes the emperor, it’s none of my business. It doesn’t matter whoever becomes the emperor anyway. Officials are all corrupt dogs! It’s never changed!
After the grain and rice were distributed, the people happily returned home to cook.
The remaining officials looked at the corpses on the ground, trembling with fear, and collectively knelt down to Long Chen to beg for mercy.
"You are also an accomplice, you should also be killed..."
Long Chen walked down slowly, frightened the officials into tears.
"King Wu, spare your life, King Wu, spare your life."
"Li Chengdao is tyrannical and unethical, and I dare not say anything about it."
Long Chen ignored it, but took out a piece of paper from his arms and said: "Which of you can recognize the words on this, I will keep you alive!"
