Queen's Purpose

Chapter 496 Put everyone into the dungeon—including the Seventh Princess

Xia Fanyin looked at him in disbelief, "Quan Qingjiu, even if you want to get back what belongs to you, but they..."

"innocent?"

Before she could finish speaking, the man took her words, "Xiao Qi, do you think they are innocent?"

The expression on his face became more and more cold, like the coldness that penetrated into the bone marrow when he was frozen three feet, "Your father slaughtered my royal family that day, the whole imperial city was full of blood, and corpses were scattered all over the field. Who is not innocent in the former royal family?" , which one deserves to die? How can these people be innocent as his children?"

Everyone's faces were as pale as paper.

"Do not……"

Xia Fanyin's chest shrank sharply, but she couldn't find any words to refute.

She pinched herself hard, trying to make herself think of something that would work, "Father is the one who is wrong! You have already killed him for revenge. Since you think he is wrong, how can you do the same?" Indiscriminately killing innocent people just like him?"

She stepped forward and grabbed his sleeve, "Quan Qingjiu, don't...no, you can't do this!"

The man wiped away her tears, "OK."

Probably because she didn't expect him to be so talkative all of a sudden, her pupils dilated slightly, and she looked at him in disbelief.

In the crowd, hope flashed in everyone's eyes again.

But in the next second, the man added to Xia Fanyin, "I'm still alive by chance, so - you can live too."

The bright colors in everyone's eyes dimmed in an instant, and even timid girls and concubines couldn't help crying.

The whole venue is full of coldness and sadness.

Xia Fanyin no longer knew what to do.

Great panic and fear enveloped her, she had never been so overwhelmed, tears fell down, "Quan Qingjiu." She cried, "No matter what you did to me , you have already done so to avenge your family, but at least now..."

She choked up and said: "Now... you can even let go of those people who are controlled as puppets, why can't you let go of these more innocent people who don't know anything? Most of them are just old and weak women and children , apart from being the son, daughter and concubine of Emperor Jing, what else is wrong?

Quan Qingjiu's jaw tightened, and his chest heaved slightly.

Yan Xi frowned, and when she saw this, she slowly stepped forward to persuade her: "Ah Jiu, the princess is right, the past is just..."

"impossible!"

The man suddenly snapped, the slightest fleeting emotion seemed to be non-existent at all, his face darkened as quickly and as coldly as possible, "Everyone must die—only by exchanging their lives can they redeem their father!" crimes committed that year."

"Nine powers!"

"Your Highness Princess." He looked at her coldly, "If you say one more word, you will end up like them."

Xia Fanyin's face turned pale.

She closed her eyes, and suddenly laughed, "Okay, why don't you let go of any of them."

The man stared at her sharply, and there was a fierce and frightening coldness in his dark pupils, "Do you think I dare not?"

He suddenly pinched her chin and lifted it up, staring at her coldly with sharp eyes like a knife, "Leave them alone, huh?"

"........."

She pursed her lips tightly and said nothing.

Quan Qingjiu narrowed his long and narrow phoenix eyes, and ordered in a cold voice, "Come here, put everyone in the sky prison—including the Seventh Princess."
