After rebirth, I tortured the scum and strived to become the empress

Li Yang thought for a while and said:
  "The only thing to worry about is that in Tianshui County, the Liu family has been rooted for a long time. It has ruled for more than a hundred years and its prestige is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. As the saying goes, it cannot be established without destruction. Therefore, I suggest that no one in the Liu family be spared!"

"Liu family father and son?" Shen Qingjun nodded: "I have never thought of letting them go..."

"The only one I hesitate about is Liu Sheng! This man is still ten years old. Kill him..."

"Ha, forget it, let's kill them all!" Shen Qingjun thought for a moment, then suddenly laughed, and then said with a solemn face: "I am being hypocritical. Since I want to kill, I will kill the whole family! What about the child? Who let him Where is Xinliu?"

"My lord is wise!"

Li Yang was overjoyed. Although the Liu family was defeated, there were still some die-hard loyalists. The existence of these people was a factor of instability. The easiest way was to eradicate the Liu family and cut off anyone's hope. This would be the right way.

"Wise? Haha, Zhongzhi, I was not wise just now!" Shen Qingjun shook his head,
  "I am still a woman's benevolent person." She laughed at herself, "But in political struggles, you and I are at death's door, and we often annihilate our clans. How can we tolerate a woman's benevolent attitude!"

"My lord just has a good nature and has compassion."

"Be it a kind nature or a compassionate heart! A Lord should not show it to her enemies, or strictly speaking, it should not be shown to her enemies who are still alive!" Shen Qingjun waved his hand,
  "And as the saying goes: 'Words cannot be said, but deeds must be done!' He has already destroyed his father and ancestors, but he is not killed? Is this a traitor left to avenge his father and ancestors?"

After Shen Qingjun finished speaking, he looked down at Shen Li who was standing on one side and said,

"Shui Ping, you go to the cell and send the Liu family off! For external reasons, Liu Sheng said that he had a sudden illness! Liu Su and his son committed suicide! It is normal for children to get sick and die young. As for other adults in the Liu family, Brother Yaizhen... keep them first. , all the Liu family members died in one day, it’s too deliberate, isn’t it?”

Shen Qingjun secretly ordered with his eyes, showing his decisiveness in killing!
  Although the idea of ​​murder and genocide was proposed by Li Yang and executed by Shen Li, the decision was made by Shen Qingjun, so it was Shen Qingjun who was responsible for the cause and effect, and had nothing to do with Li Yang and Shen Li, because one of them was a counselor and the other was a sword!

Don't underestimate the ability to make decisions and take responsibility. There have been too many people in history who have not had the ability to make decisions. Otherwise, being scheming, decisive and responsible would not have become a term specifically used to curse the lord.

"Yes, lord." Shen Li accepted the order.

But after a while, he came back, with an expression that was hard to explain on his face.

"What's wrong? Did something happen?" Shen Qingjun asked, seeing that Shen Li was hesitant to speak.

"I'm telling you, my lord, I just arrived at the room where Liu Sheng was detained and found Liu Sheng and the two brothers of the Liu family strangled to death..."

According to different levels of importance, Liu Su and his son were locked in the same room, while Liu Sheng and Brother Yaizhen were locked together.

"Ah?" Shen Qingjun was also confused, but he immediately came to his senses and said to himself, "There is such a big conflict between the Liu family's concubines? At this time, there is also internal strife in the family!"

"And my lord, Liu Quan and Liu Yai from the Liu family have been clamoring to see you!" Shen Li said again.

"Meet me. If that's the case, bring them up! I'll meet you." Shen Qingjun also wanted to meet the two people who could ruthlessly kill his nephew and grandson.

"The common people Liu Yai and Liu Quan have met the Duke of Wuwei!" Liu Yai and Liu Quan knelt down and saluted, with a very low posture and a strong desire to survive. "Why do you two see me?" Liu Sheng killed him if he wanted to. It would be better to be killed by them, so Shen Qingjun didn't care.

"We two brothers hope that the Duke can be generous and spare our lives so that we can serve the Duke!" Liu Yai has always been smarter than Liu Quan, so he said.

"Spare your lives? Serve me? What can you do for me?" Shen Qingjun did not deny the idea of ​​killing everyone in the Liu family, including the Yaizhen brothers. She denied it to the person involved. That was too hypocritical. Instead, she asked what would it do for her if they took refuge. use.

"We can get rid of the three of Liu Su's grandfather and son for the Duke! We can also appease the people of Tianshui County and the Liu family guards for the Duke. These are our values!" Liu Quan saw the glimmer of hope in Shen Qingjun's words and firmly said said.

"Get rid of Liu Su's grandfather and son for me? To appease the people of Tianshui County and the Liu family's guards? You can indeed do it!"

Shen Qingjun repeated Liu Juan's words. In fact, this was also the reason why she agreed to meet Brother Yaizhen. Otherwise, do you think she is very idle?
  "But as the saying goes: 'Trust is worse than family!' You have done this to your brothers and nephews who are blood-related to you? Now that you want to take refuge in me, how can I trust you?"

The meaning of "Trust is worse than relatives" probably means that there is no one more trustworthy than relatives. This is not only a saying, but also a fact. Why nepotism is the first choice for anyone to hire people? It is probably trust! This is also the reason why Shen Qingjun did not consider the other Liu family members to rebel at first.

"The Duke said, 'It is better to trust than to be close.' But in my Liu family, there is nothing better to avoid than closeness, and nothing better to guard against than closeness!" Liu Yao gritted his teeth and said!

"Well, you seem to have other opinions on this?"

"Your Majesty, please forgive us for our courage. What do you think our two brothers look like?" Liu Yai raised his head as he spoke, and tapped his elbow on Liu Can, who was kneeling and silent.

"This is a little unsatisfactory!" Shen Qingjun looked at it for a while and felt that the Wuwei County people's evaluation of the "ugly appearance" of Brother Yaizhen was very appropriate, but he still kept a moral in his words.

"The Duke knows that our brother's biological father is famous for his lust! He had more than fifty concubines and beautiful maids in his life. Our biological mother can become a concubine in the Liu family. She can't be said to be the most beautiful woman in the country... In addition, our biological father has grown up. It’s not bad, so why do our brothers look so weird and ugly?”

"Even our biological mother passed away after giving birth to me and my brother, and none of my biological father's more than fifty concubines and beauties was left. Furthermore, my brother and I were both over thirty years old, and we didn't have a son or a daughter..." "

Seeing Liu Can speak with such anger that he couldn't restrain himself, Shen Qingjun understood what he said. It was nothing more than family secrets! Although I grew up in a harmonious family, I have seen a lot in my past and present lives!
  "Although our brothers are from the Liu family, we have never enjoyed the benefits of the Liu family. Why should we accompany the Liu family to perish?
  So we want to take refuge with the Duke and get rid of Liu Su, Liu Su, and Liu Sheng for the Duke, so that the Duke will not dirty his hands and reputation for villains like the Liu family! "The two brothers from the Liu family asked again to pay their respects.

Outside Liu Family Fort, the prisoner camp where Liu Family guards are detained

The prisoner camp was temporarily set up outside Liujiabao. This camp was very large. Many Liujiajun prisoners were stripped of their weapons and belongings and squatted together.

Even though the Liu family had many guards, no one resisted. Once people lose their morale, it is easy to obey.

Especially now, when the head of the family, the young head of the family, and the young head of the family are all gone, there is really no motivation to resist. Who can resist? Who are you loyal to?
