Chapter 24: The Stump Begs for Mercy

On the fourth watch, on the deserted streets of the imperial city, the sound of neat soldiers marching sounded, sonorous and rhythmic, shaking people's hearts. This is the first time that anyone has ever been born and has ever sent out troops.

The soldiers surrounded the imperial city of Yufu, and the monarch crossed the courtyard wall, and Yu Lost Qiang flashed with a faint silver light.

"Bring all the people in this house to me. ”

The soldiers received the order and scattered to all parts of the palace, and soon, one after another, people were brought to the center of the courtyard.

Shen Lian was on the side, and when he saw the person who was brought to him, his breath stagnated.

None of the daughters of the family were unscathed. It can even be said that no one was only slightly injured.

The women were brought before the monarchy, who did not make them kneel, but they fell to their knees, and many of them lost their legs. They cowered their heads, afraid to see anyone, trying to cover the scars on their bodies, but to no avail. Burns, whip marks, bruises, and many other unrecognizable traces left them with no skin. But they are beautifully dressed and richly decorated, earrings, nose rings, lip rings, and neck rings are all handmade boutiques of the Yu family, announcing the prominent position of the Imperial City Yu Mansion in the Yu surname Zong Mansion.

Then, the head of the Yu family and several other members of the family were brought.

The monarch glanced at those people one by one with his gaze, with a majesty that could not be provoked. The men were dressed only in their middle coats, and they had apparently just gotten out of bed. It is really a very thoughtful consideration to make the daughter of the Yu family dress appropriately at all times, and the man is no exception when he sleeps.

"Yu family master, presumably these are your masterpieces in the family. ”

He didn't use a question.

"Do you want me to read the law again?"

Such abuse of others, exile in Beigao for twenty years is the lowest.

"This is my family's internal affairs, for a hundred years, the people and animals in the family have followed my family's rules, it has long been an unwritten agreement, why did Your Majesty attack at this time?"

Yu Youqian was not afraid at all, met his gaze, and asked in a deep voice.

Agreed: The agreement will put the burden of this hundred years of prosperity on the remnants of the daughters of the family, and let them live in the world as good as the animals, and it is not a pity to die?

The monarch knew that this trip was reckless, and if he wanted to get rid of it, he should think about it in the long run. However, how to discuss it? Who will support it? The so-called long-term plan is basically a dispute with a group of people who are afraid that their own interests will be infringed upon, and they wish to let the daughter of the Yu family survive in the current miserable situation for another 800 years.

Waiting, there is only waiting, but this is a fruitless waiting. Now in the situation, no one is on his side, and if he wants to pick out the carrion from this seemingly flawless peaceful and prosperous world, he can only take the lead in piercing it.

"Take it away. ”

He is too lazy to talk nonsense with poverty.

At this time, he suddenly saw a little boy, five or six years old, with a pair of extremely dark eyes on his immature face, full of compassion and helplessness that should not exist at this age. He couldn't help but take a few more looks.

After a moment of hesitation, the hem of his robe was tugged.

"Your Majesty, please, please let my master go!!"

He was startled and came back to his senses. But I saw the women and children kneeling on the ground, and the man of the Yu family was still standing proudly.

"It's not abuse, it's our willingness, this is the rule of the Yu family, if you make a mistake, you will be punished, it's not the fault of the man in my family, please, please be merciful, let them go!"

The women waved their stumps and begged him not to hold them accountable.

His heart sank suddenly, and the words of Shuhuan rang in his ears.

"When I desperately learned to write, and when I wrote a letter to go to the government office to complain about my father's evil deeds, it was my mother who knelt in front of me and begged me. ”

"She begged me not to go, not to condemn my father. Ridiculous, isn't it? But my mother, she couldn't live without this man. ”

"The most difficult shackles in the world to break free from are all put on by oneself willingly. ”

The wall of the courtyard of the Yu family, which is not knee-high, is flickering with a glimmer of silver flowers, and I don't know whether it is the leaning of the waning moon or the fate of hard work.
