oon as she came down, she saw Su Pingbei and a woman in the distance walking towards her.That woman, Su Jinpa, she was acquainted with.The emperor's daughter, Princess Li Peipei, the eleventh princess...Chapter 104: The Saintly Precepts of the First Ancestor

After the execution is over, the Empress can naturally take him away.

Li Chen's face was as cold as ice. He said, "Before the execution is complete, no one can stop it."

With a single raise of his hand, Li Chen went through the motions of bowing, but his eyes held an utter emptiness, a chilling indifference.

"At the founding of the nation, Emperor Taizu was deeply aware of the countless wrongs committed by past dynasties that led to their downfall and loss of the people's hearts. Therefore, he established nineteen sacred edicts, with the first one being: All emperors who succeed in the lineage of the Great Qin Li family must never allow imperial concubines to interfere in government or powerful relatives to exert excessive influence. If anyone violates this rule, the members of the Li family can wield Emperor Taizu's edict to punish the emperor and execute corrupt officials."

“My Great Qin Empire has been established for three hundred years. Up to now, my father's reign is called "Daxing," making him the fourteenth emperor. No one in the harem dares to interfere in politics. Even 120 years ago during Emperor Xuanren's reign, Concubine Liu relied on her favor and became arrogant, secretly interfering in government affairs. Emperor Xuanren sent his uncle, the emperor's brother, to the Taimiao Temple to retrieve the ancestral teachings of the Taizu. No matter how much Emperor Xuanren hesitated, he still issued a decree, and Concubine Liu hanged herself at Huxin Pavilion. Emperor Xuanren knelt in the Taimiao Temple for three days and three nights to show his remorse.”

Li Chen let go of his hand, his eyes fixed on Zhao Qinglan with burning intensity. He declared in a loud voice: "The Lake Heart Pavilion still stands today. Has the Empress ever visited it Has she ever seen the vengeful spirit of Consort Liu, who perished one hundred and twenty years ago"

Li Chen's every word struck like thunder.

Within the imperial city, red bricks and green tiles, heavy snow falls from the sky.

There were dozens of people present, not one dared to speak.

Even the Ninth Prince gritted his teeth, too terrified to let out a scream.

There's no need to say anything else. These words carry too much weight.

Zha Qinglan's chest rose and fell rapidly, her eyes filled with both terror and anger.

Li Chen even brought out the ancestral precepts of the Taizu Emperor, showing that he would not compromise.

Zhao Qinglan knew she could resist no longer.

Otherwise, given Li Chentian's fearless personality, he would dare to go to Taimiao and ask for the ancestral teachings. In that case, the whole country would be shaken, and in the end, it would be himself who suffered the consequences.

Chen Tong, having learned his lesson this time, saw that no one dared to speak up. He directly raised his staff and brought down the tenth board heavily on the Ninth Prince's buttocks.

"Ah!!!"

The Ninth Prince let out a heart-wrenching scream, so full of agony that it abruptly cut off mid-way. He collapsed onto the snow, overcome by pain and passed out.

"Reporting to the Crown Prince, this subordinate has completed the execution. A total of ten boards were used, not one more, not one less."

Li Chen's eyes were cold, and he said in a faint voice, "Go summon the imperial physician to treat the Ninth Prince well."

"Having said that, Li Chen bowed to Zhao Qinglan and said: "Your Majesty, everything I have done was out of necessity. It was all for the Ninth Prince to become a capable person as soon as possible, to share the worries of our father emperor. I believe that if our father emperor were to wake up and learn about this, he would be greatly pleased. Please take good care of the Ninth Prince, Your Majesty. With that, I shall take my leave."

After he finished speaking, Li Chen flicked his sleeves and turned to leave.

That figure, truly imposing and dashing to the extreme.

A large group of Jinyiwei followed Chen Tong, keeping pace with Li Chen as he left.

Footsteps gradually faded away, Zhao Qinglan bit her lips tightly, her body trembling.

It's frustrating.

"Return to the palace!"

Zhao Qinglan squeezed out a sentence from between her teeth, "Take this useless thing back to the palace!"

"The Empress has arrived."

The eunuch was still kowtowing, but his voice lacked its previous confidence and sounded more dejected.

Back in the East Palace's Hall of Government, Li Chen sat down and calmly said to Chen Tong who followed him, "Kneel down."

Chen Tong, upon hearing this, did not hesitate. He kowtowed heavily to the ground with both knees.

"I have failed in my duties, Your Highness. Please punish me."

With a thud, Chen Tong banged his head against the tile floor and said.Chapter 976: The Emperor Polar Heaven Expresses Satisfaction
