After being dressed as Wu Zetian's daughter, she was favored by the group

Chapter 31 Kill!

Even though she already knew that Empress Wu was sending people to look for her everywhere, when Li Lingyue entered Chang'an City, she was still stunned by the scene in front of her.

In the capital city of the empire, it was as if the pause button had been pressed, all the shops were closed, and there was not a single ordinary person in the streets except for the occasional flying riders and government servants passing by.

Li Lingyue felt the power of imperial power for the first time. In order to find her, Empress Wu directly let the military take over a large city with a population of several 10. Such a large-scale confinement and control could only appear in her era. , Wu Zetian did it 1000 years in advance.

Li Lingyue was both moved and afraid. He was moved because Empress Wu could seal a city for her sake. She was afraid that if she left the palace without permission to cause such a big incident, she would inevitably suffer the wrath of Empress Wu.

With an extremely apprehensive mood, Li Lingyue followed behind Yang Sijian, and walked into Yang's mansion bravely.

Turning around the screen wall and stepping over the vertical flower gate, the strong smell of blood made Li Lingyue's stomach convulse, and she almost vomited.

Yang Sijian, who was walking in front, could no longer take care of her, rushed into the courtyard impatiently, and knelt down ten steps away from Empress Wu.

"Your Majesty, I will welcome the princess back safely! Please make amends, Your Majesty!"

Empress Wu raised her eyes, her frowning brows relaxed slightly, she ignored Yang Sijian who was kneeling on the ground, but turned her attention to Li Lingyue who was walking towards her.

After confirming that her daughter was safe and sound, she let out a long sigh of relief, put the rosary in her hand into her long sleeve, and before Li Lingyue knelt down to pay her respects, she called out:
"Come and sit here, Auntie!"

Li Lingyue whispered "It's over", like a good baby who made a mistake, she came to Empress Wu's side in a well-behaved manner, with half of her buttocks on the couch, her head drooping, not daring to meet her old mother's eyes.

She was already prepared to meet the punishment of the old lady, guessing that the old lady might slap herself a few times, or punch, kick, or yell at her.

Just as she was thinking, Empress Wu slammed her big hand towards her, and Li Lingyue tensed up, ready to bear the attack of the storm.

However, at the next moment, she misunderstood, Empress Wu's big hand did not greet her face, but wrapped her arms around her shoulders, and forcibly pulled her into her arms.

While Li Lingyue was surprised, Empress Wu stretched out her other hand, gently stroking her hair and cheek.

Li Lingyue in her arms could clearly feel Empress Wu's rapidly beating heart and trembling fingers.

This strong woman who never showed worry and nervousness to outsiders completely broke her defenses in front of her doting daughter.

Alas, poor parents all over the world, for some reason, Li Lingyue had a sore nose and was inexplicably moved.

"Aniang, I'm sorry, my daughter is wrong!"

Feeling the warmth from her mother's love, Li Lingyue took the initiative to admit her mistakes rarely.

"It's good to know!" Empress Wu showed a faint smile, and her tone was very kind, Li Lingyue gradually let go of her nervous heart.

Perhaps because of the lost and found, the two mothers hugged each other so intimately until a young man rushed out of the curtain.

"Aye, save me! Aye!"

The young man was the son of Yang Sijian's concubine. Unfortunately, he was picked by the swordsman.

Li Lingyue looked around, only to realize that the red curtain surrounded by ten meters away was actually stained red by human blood.

Inside the curtain, there are still family members of the Yang family kneeling. As long as Empress Wu doesn't nod, the killing will continue until everyone is killed.

The knife and ax hand came out of the curtain, grabbed it with bloody hands, grabbed the boy's hair, and dragged it into the curtain like a dead dog.

And the crying young man grabbed Yang Sijian's clothes with his fingers, repeating over and over again: "Aye, save me!"

Yang Sijian bowed down to Empress Wu again, crying:
"My lady! I beg you to be merciful!"

Empress Wu didn't seem to hear, her attention was all on Li Lingyue.

Yang Sijian, who did not give up, raised his tone again, but Empress Wu's cold light flashed, and Yang Sijian closed his mouth abruptly immediately with the terrifying look in his eyes.

Seeing that the young man refused to let go, the axeman drew his knife and slashed without the slightest hesitation. The young man let out a miserable howl of "ah", grabbed Yang Sijian's wrist and was chopped off alive. A few seconds later, "" With a bang, blood sprayed on the curtain again, and the young man's miserable howling stopped abruptly.

Witnessing a murder for the first time, coupled with the pungent smell of blood, Li Lingyue couldn't control it any longer, she leaned over and vomited, while Empress Wu beside her patted her on the back very considerately as if nothing had happened.

After all, she is a strong woman, she is used to seeing life and death, and her endurance is not ordinary.

After Li Lingyue felt better, Empress Wu said to Yang Sijian slowly:

"Let that precious girl of yours come up close, I'll have to take a good look!"

Yang Xiuxiu, who was kneeling behind Yang Sijian, had lost her arrogance at this moment. The tragic scene of her brother being killed was enough to scare her courage. Thinking of what she had done, she curled up and hid behind her father shivering. trembling.

In the face of absolute strength, she finally felt deep fear, helplessness, and despair.She felt extremely regretful for her ignorance and recklessness. If time could go back, she would not even provoke the princess to death.

Unfortunately, it's all too late.

With her swollen cheeks, she realized that compared to the queen's methods, the princess's two hundred slaps were simply a great gift.

"Min...Minnv...bye...bye bye...my lady!"

Yang Xiuxiu's teeth were trembling, and she even stuttered when she spoke.

"Look up and look into my eyes!" Empress Wu ordered without any doubt.

Yang Xiuxiu tremblingly met Empress Wu's gaze, and with just one glance, her face turned pale with horror, and she dared not look again.

"I heard you are going to kill my daughter?"

As soon as these words were spoken, it was tantamount to a death sentence for Yang Xiuxiu. With Li Lingyue as the party involved, it was already a firm fact. The murder of the princess was a serious crime against the clan, and the entire family would be sent to the guillotine. , will be cut into pieces by thousands of knives and executed Lingchi.

Yang Xiuxiu couldn't hold it anymore, she let out a mournful "wow", her mentality exploded, and then she rolled her eyes and fainted from fright.

Not long after Yang Xiuxiu was taken down, a new quarter of an hour arrived.

The old grandmother of the Yang family was chosen by the knife and axe, and she was about to become the next soul to be killed by the knife.

Yang Sijian couldn't hold back any longer, knowing that there was no hope of pleading, he cried loudly:
"Your Majesty! I am willing to die on behalf of my grandmother, please allow me!"

After all, the Empress Chaowu kept kowtowing, and blood flowed down her forehead all over her face.

Li Lingyue couldn't bear to see such a miserable scene, so she persuaded:
"Aniang, for Master Yang's filial piety, let's spare his grandmother's life!"

Empress Wu sighed and waved at the knife and axe, and the killing finally stopped.

After a while, Empress Wu took Li Lingyue to board Fenglu together, and the imperial guards who surrounded Yang's residence escorted the mother and daughter to the imperial palace.
