Chapter 867: Scarlet Scepter

Fourth planet. Office Center of the Imperial Ministry of Security.

The prison for felons, located thousands of meters underground, is already overcrowded, and countless big names who were once famous in the entire empire have now been stripped of their gorgeous halos, and together with their families, they have all been reduced to humiliating prisoners, and they can't live in fear!

At the entrance of the prison, hundreds of high-level abilities dressed in heavy light armor were waiting for them, the alloy gates with a diameter of ten meters were all closed, and there were dozens of royal worshippers in the dark on standby at any time, no matter who wanted to visit, they must have a handwritten warrant from Lord Su Shangqing before they could be allowed to open the gate and enter the prison.

"Your Excellency General, do you know how many big people have been caught in there these days?"

In the guard room at the door, a second lieutenant officer who had just entered the industry for a few days whispered to He Quping beside him.

He Quping, who had already accumulated merit and been promoted to at least general, glanced at his guards and said lightly:

"Haven't you been watching all the time? From Randall and his ilk, who were the first, to Konstantin and his family who had just been transferred! And those guys from the military, parliament, the House of Lords! ”

"Especially in the cabinet, officials from almost every department didn't have to run! The people arrested these days add up, as long as there are a few more leading figures, they can hold an imperial cabinet office meeting in this cell! ”

The young lieutenant smacked his tongue: "There are so many people, they won't all be executed, right?" ”

"No death?" He Quping sneered, "Do you still have to eat and drink well to feed this group of banes?" Since these guys dare to plot to usurp the throne, they must have the consciousness to pay the price after defeat! There's no need for them, or the people behind them, to live! Your Majesty is really moving this time, and you want to kill it again! ”

The second lieutenant's face turned pale and he stopped talking.

He Quping didn't think so, this little guy has only been in the industry for a short time, and he really hasn't seen such a bloody scene, nearly half of the officials and nobles in the entire imperial capital have all been reduced to prisoners, and judging from the tone released by His Majesty the Emperor before, since these people have already come in, there is no need to get out alive!

After the Starlight Empire entered the Tianhua Star Domain, after the first few massacres against the wealthy families, in order to appease the people's hearts and stabilize the interior, Yun Haoyu adopted a relatively moderate and lenient governing style, as long as the officials and nobles who supported the new regime, no matter what kind of disgraceful behavior they had in the past, they could not be blamed in the past.

However, such a gesture of kindness did not reap more than gratitude and loyalty, because some of the policies of the new regime favored the common class, which led many nobles whose vested interests were damaged to begin to regard His Majesty the Emperor as a thorn in their side.

In the past, His Majesty was safe and sound, coupled with the empire's repeated victories in foreign wars, the emperor's prestige was unprecedentedly high, and there was no opportunity to take advantage of it, so they could only choose to forbear! But when Yun Haoyu was trapped, these people thought that the opportunity had come, and began to eagerly coax them in tandem, running for the change of dynasty!

After this rebellion, the emperor's temperament has changed greatly, and he began to reflect on some of his previous improper practices, and made a decision that shocked all forces!

Since a moderate and tolerant attitude cannot bring stability to the regime, the only way to do so is to sweep away all the unstable factors that threaten the regime by bloody means!

A moment later, a heavy flying car drove rapidly from a distance along the wide underground tunnel, and when it got close, the garrison troops immediately looked like they were facing a great enemy, and they were all on guard and ready to respond at any time.

He Quping, who was the leader, raised his sword in his hand and led a group of guards to meet him.

The door opened, and Su Shangqing, Li Xingyan, Hu Mu and other big names rushed out, and even the former head of the inner court, Shuang Yan, was also there.

After the necessary verification procedures, He Quping opened his mouth and asked, "Ladies and gentlemen, what does Your Majesty command?" Are there any new prisoners coming in? ”

Li Xingyan smiled and shook her head: "No! We came here this time because we saw that there were too many people here, it was really crowded, and it was troublesome to manage, so I will help you 'clean up' well! ”

He Quping's heart sank, knowing that the time to come had finally come! So he said more respectfully: "What you need your subordinates to do, you can just tell me!" ”

Su Shangqing nodded, took out a list and handed it to him, "Gather all the people above in the newly opened No. 9 execution room!" In addition, His Majesty instructed me to meet Randall once before the execution, and to interrogate him face to face, and you can arrange it! ”

For the orders of the immediate superior, the major general followed them one by one.

Five minutes later, in a sealed interrogation room in solitary isolation, Su Shangqing met his old classmate.

"Dear senior, let's meet again!" He greeted faintly.

As soon as the haggard Randall saw him, as if he had grasped a life-saving straw, he excitedly rushed over and grabbed him, and asked earnestly, "What did Your Majesty say there?" Are you here to deliver an amnesty? ”

Su Shangqing shook off his hand quietly and said calmly: "No, you are wrong!" From the very beginning, Your Majesty never thought of opening up to you and plotting to usurp the throne, which is an unforgivable crime in any era! Your Majesty, of course, is no exception! ”

Randall's face changed, and he said hurriedly: "But we are all his classmates, and we have been with him for so many years, Your Majesty has always been lenient and generous, don't you care about the old feelings at all?" I remember he wasn't like that before! Could it be that you are mistaken! ”

"Your Majesty can't be mistaken!" Su Shangqing said indifferently, "It was before, and now it is now, Your Majesty has realized that it is because of the too lenient and preferential treatment of you people in the past, which caused you to get carried away, do not know the severity, and forget your duty!" So, he's not going to make the same mistake again! ”

Randall was like a lightning strike, and said with a pale face: "Could it be ...... Is he really going to kill them all? Don't let go of a single one! We're his classmates, we're ......."

"Classmates?" Su Shangqing said disdainfully, "You only remember now that you and Your Majesty are classmates?" When you rebelled, why didn't you remember this stubble? Has Your Majesty treated you badly? ”

"I ...... It's just that I don't want to see our Luhua School faction decline, so ......" he defended weakly.

Su Shangqing didn't bother to talk nonsense with him, and said bluntly: "Your Majesty asked me to ask you, when you bought off several palace maids around Empress Xiao in an attempt to poison Princess Yun Qixuan, is this really the case?" ”

"This ...... Your Majesty even knows this, how can you ......," he replied stunned.

"So, why are you doing this? The princess is just an eight-year-old child, even if you want to usurp the throne, don't you want to take care of Your Majesty's kindness to you in the past and leave him a glimmer of blood? Su Shangqing asked.

Randall sneered: "Changing the dynasty, how can the royal family of the previous dynasty not rush to kill everything?" Regardless of whether she is underage or not, as long as she is a person who has a relationship with the emperor, she can't let it go! This has been the practice for thousands of years! Shouldn't I do that? ”

"Good! Very good! Su Shangqing nodded lightly, "Your Majesty said that since you have no mercy for his relatives, then he will not have mercy on your relatives either!" All the officials involved in the rebellion this time, except for themselves, their families and relatives will not let go, and all of them must be executed! Your brothers, and your underage children, will die for you! ”

"So, you're here to see me off on my way, right?" In despair, Randall calmed down and said slowly:

"I don't know, what kind of death will Your Majesty give us? For the sake of his classmates, he should ......"

"You'll see you soon!" Su Shangqing sneered, "We will send you on your way in the warmest way possible!" ”

……

The No. 9 execution chamber is a closed square with a circumference of hundreds of meters and a height of tens of meters, and the ground, walls, and ceiling are all made of iron-gray alloy!

At this time, a large number of rebels, including Randall, Lutz, Tifar and other important figures, as well as their direct clansmen, were all driven into the square, and a large area of black oppression was suppressed.

On the closed viewing platform in mid-air, Su Shangqing looked at the people who came to prison, and lightly ordered: "It's not too early, let's start!" ”

He Quping nodded, reached out and pressed a huge blood-colored button on the console in front of him.

"My lord, what will Your Majesty do with us?" Antonio said worriedly, "There are tens of thousands of people here, is he going to kill them all?" ”

"I don't know, maybe a miracle will happen!" Randall replied.

At this moment, the ground suddenly trembled slightly.

"Bang! Boom! Bang ......"

The dull sound of impact continued to reach the ears, and it became louder and louder!

Randall looked around blankly, and saw countless portals appear on the alloy walls around the square, and a three-meter-tall, heavy-body armored, hideous and powerful mechanical war puppet walked out of the door, and then lined up in the tightest formation, like a moving metal wall, crushing from all sides!

As the distance approached, he could clearly see the cold and emotionless electronic eyes of the war puppets, the solid and heavy giant tower shield, the jagged thick back machete, and the thick and hideous dark red blood grooves clearly visible......

"This ...... This is ......" Randall's face instantly turned pale as paper, and he looked up to the sky and roared:

"Yun Haoyu, you son of a bitchβ€”"

"Bang! Boom! Bang ......"

The mechanical war puppets were unmoved, the steady and powerful footsteps were like the prelude to death, and the two rows of snow-bright knife mountains flashed with a faint and cold glow, approaching unhurriedly and in unison, the cold light was cold and murderous!

"End...... It's over......" Lu Ce's face turned pale, and his eyes were blank and he muttered to himself.

Unexpectedly, His Majesty has done such a great job that he refuses to leave even a whole corpse to them!

"We ...... Let's fight together......" A major general roared in despair, and rushed out of the crowd with his bare hands, heading towards the approaching metal wall on the opposite side.

He also used to have the strength of the Holy Rank, but unfortunately, in the past few days of being imprisoned, he has been injected with a powerful debilitating potion every day, and his ability is six or seven out of ten, and he can't help the war puppet army that generally has the strength of the demigods on the other side!

Overhead, four or five heavy war knives fell heavily, blood burst out, human heads flew into the air, and the entire body was instantly split into more than ten pieces!

"Ahh

The terrible screams stopped abruptly, and the dense city walls trampled on his broken corpse, and continued to approach without stopping for a moment! The neat pace is still calm and powerful!

The rain of blood mixed with the flesh and mud flew all over the sky......
