Chapter 770 The Saint is Cruel and Merciless (Twenty-Five)
He didn't expect that he had let a wolf into the house. Before he could sit on the dragon throne again, he was killed by a sword by the guard beside him.
"you!"
"Your Majesty, I'm sorry. All ten of my family members have been captured by the Yun people. I won't live in vain. I'm here to accompany you!"
The guard slashed his neck with a sword and died.
It turned out that the guard had betrayed Shen Hechang long ago and defected to the Yun Kingdom.
Shen Hechang grabbed the sword that pierced his heart with both hands, blood spitting out of his mouth, and regret appeared in his eyes, but it was too late.
"Xin'er, you are right, I was wrong..."
He looked at his men and the soldiers of the Yun Kingdom and died with his eyes open.
"His Majesty!"
"Kill these Yun people and avenge His Majesty!"
The Shen soldiers in the hall were filled with indignation.
The general sent by the Yun Kingdom saw Shen Hechang dead and laughed loudly: "Emperor Shen is just like this. Kill him!"
The palace fell into chaos again and the two armies started fighting.
At this point, Mingli no longer needed to hide herself. Many things seemed to have nothing to do with her, but in fact she was the one who fueled the flames. Of course, she did not interfere with Shen Hechang's contact with the Yun people. That was Shen Hechang's own fault.
Her influence has long penetrated into every corner of this continent. Whether it is Duan Jingwu or Shen Hechang, many of their subordinates are secretly loyal to her.
Clad in armor and wielding a longsword, her expression icy yet calm. She pulled the reins and charged headfirst into battle, slaying two Yun soldiers with a single blow. The entire imperial city was surrounded by her army, and anyone who refused to surrender would be killed.
Mingli fought his way from the city gate to the palace and killed the general of Yun Kingdom with his own hands.
In the end, half of the Yun people surrendered. Shen Hechang's people would not resist stubbornly. The emperor was dead, there was no heir, and there was no hope of restoring the country. Why bother struggling?
"Pass the order down. Clear the battlefield. Do not disturb the civilians. Forbid looting. Remember the military rules. Do not touch anything that should not be touched. Do not follow the Shen and Duan families' tactics of robbing and burning everything. Otherwise, don't blame me, Mingli, for being ruthless and punishing all three clans."
"Yes, subordinates will follow the master's orders."
Mingli waved his men away and told them to go about their business.
A woman in armor stopped beside Shen Hechang's body, slowly squatted down, and closed his open eyes.
Mingli patted the woman's shoulder.
"Yin Yin is sad?" Lou Yin shook her head.
"Yin'er is just a little melancholy. Although Shen Hechang can't distinguish right from wrong, he's not a wicked person. It's a pity that they have different standpoints. His last name is Shen, which is his biggest mistake."
"Don't worry, I'll have someone collect his body."
Lou Yin nodded in thanks: "Thank you, Master."
"Master, Liang Xin found a baby in the harem. Her wet nurse was about to take her away. She must be Shen Tiaotiao's daughter."
Mingli looked at the baby in Gu Liangxin's arms. She had the blood of the Duan and Shen families in her body. Her mother killed her father, and her grandfather killed her mother. She might be very painful after learning her identity, so she decided to just be an ordinary orphan.
Although she should have eradicated the problem completely, there was no need for her to kill a baby.
"Raise her well, and when this is over, send her to the orphanage. Her parents died in the mountain flood, and she has no relatives at home, leaving her alone. When she grows up, find a job and support herself."
"Yes, Master, don't worry, Liang Xin will make proper arrangements."
Gu Liangxin held the child in her arms, looking at the baby's innocent smile, thinking how wonderful it would have been if the child in her sister-in-law's belly had survived. Unfortunately, her family was gone. Fortunately, she had now taken revenge.
An hour later, night fell, the sky was filled with lightning and thunder, and a rainstorm washed away the killing and blood.
Mingli looked at the rising sun in the east, feeling filled with emotion. Her time had come.
