The Emperor of Red Mansions: Many Children, Many Blessings, Opening Draft

"Wang Ziteng!"

Li Chenghan's face did not show any expression. After seeing that everyone's eyes were looking at him, Li Chenghan called out to Wang Ziteng.

"I am here!"

Wang Ziteng hurriedly knelt down and replied to Li Chenghan.

"After the rebellion is suppressed, you can quickly leave the palace to mobilize the army of the Kyoto camp to enter the capital, and confiscate the Prince Yi Zhong's Mansion and the Deputy Commander of the Imperial Guards Mansion for me.

In addition, this time the confiscation of the house is to exterminate the whole family. I want to exterminate the Prince Yi Zhong's Mansion and the Deputy Commander of the Imperial Guards Mansion without a single person left!

Also, the Deputy Commander of the Imperial Guards will directly exterminate all nine clans!"

"In addition, all the rebellious imperial guards, after I have someone compile the list, I will send it to you. The families of these people will all be demoted to slavery!"

Li Chenghan's voice was cold, and he issued an order to Wang Ziteng.

"Your Majesty, I obey your command!"

Everyone present was frightened when they heard Li Chenghan's order.

Wang Ziteng was also stunned, but he quickly agreed.

"Prince, isn't this punishment too severe?

It is reasonable and legal to exterminate the nine clans of the deputy commander of the imperial army.

But Prince Yi Zhong is a nobleman after all!"

Su Zhi couldn't help but persuade Li Chenghan.

Prince Zhongshun looked unhappy on the side.

Although Prince Yi Zhong's rebellion was indeed punishable in his opinion.

But he felt that exterminating the entire family was a bit too much.

No matter how bad the relationship between Prince Yi Zhong and him was, he was still his brother.

In addition, although he had no intention of rebellion, as a prince, he could not help but feel a sense of grief.

"Hmph!"

"Rebellion is against the will of heaven, but he rebelled and made my father die!

Such a traitor is simply a nobleman!"

"You are also reminding me! Uncle Zhongshun, remove Prince Yi Zhong from the family tree and the imperial temple for me afterwards!"

Li Chenghan sneered and immediately spoke to Prince Zhongshun.

Su Zhi, who had originally advised Li Chenghan, turned green after hearing what Li Chenghan said.

I just advised you to be kind, why did you remove someone from the family tree and drag me into it!

You said that, I am afraid that people will think that I advised you to make this decision.

“…”

“My little prince obeys!”

Prince Zhongshun’s heart trembled. He looked at Li Chenghan and dared not say anything more. He could only accept the order first.

Although Li Chenghan is not the emperor now, he has the will of Emperor Jian’an to pass on the throne.

So Li Chenghan is now the emperor. He just needs to announce it to the world and the coronation ceremony!

At this moment, everyone calls Li Chenghan His Majesty, so it is reasonable for Li Chenghan to call himself “I”.

It’s just that Emperor Jian’an has just passed away, and Li Chenghan doesn’t want to call himself “I” so soon to avoid criticism.

After all, he is the emperor for sure, so it doesn’t matter if he calls himself “I” now.This time.

Here, Li Chenghan did not call himself "I", but he had already begun to exercise the power of being an emperor.

"Little Guizi!"

After seeing Prince Zhongshun respond, Li Chenghan shouted to the outside of the door.

"I'm here!"

After receiving Li Chenghan's call, Little Guizi, who had been waiting outside the hall, hurriedly responded and entered the hall.

"Pass on my order, tell the commander of the imperial army, Cao Shaoqin and others.

Rebels, I don't want a single prisoner!"

Li Chenghan's tone was serious, and everyone's heart was chilled again.

"I obey your order!"

Little Guizi was also a little panicked and trembling!

After receiving Li Chenghan's order, he hurriedly withdrew.

"Prince, the rebels are hateful!

But you have severely punished the leaders of the rebels and demoted their families to slavery!

So don't commit murder! After all, you are about to ascend the throne!"

"You should show kindness, not commit murder!"

Su Zhi tried to dissuade Li Chenghan.

"The objects of kindness should be the officials of the court, the army that defends the country, and the people of the world!

Not these rebels!

Don't forget how my father died!

It is a great kindness that I didn't kill all of them!"

Li Chenghan took a deep breath and retorted to Su Zhi.

Hearing this, Su Zhi opened his mouth but didn't say anything.

He knew that Li Chenghan was angry because of the death of Emperor Jian'an!

So it is not good to persuade them at this time.

If you want to blame someone, then you can only blame these individuals for rebellion.

Rebellion is a serious crime that will be punished by extermination of the entire clan!

"Dai Quan!"

"Arrange people and set up a mourning hall!"

"Also announce it to the world!"

After seeing that Su Zhi did not speak, Li Chenghan directly gave orders to Dai Quan.

Outside...

The rebels have surrendered on a large scale!

When Xiao Guizi ran over, he looked at the scene in front of him and his eyes turned. He quickly ran to the side of the commander of the imperial guards and whispered: "The prince has ordered that no prisoners be taken!"

After Xiao Guizi finished speaking, the commander of the imperial guards' pupils quickly expanded.

"Then what your majesty means..."

The commander of the imperial guards said to Xiao Guizi hesitantly.

How to deal with the rebels? With the emperor around, he still didn't dare to listen to the prince directly.

"Because of the rebels, His Majesty has been so angry that he died!"

Xiao Guizi took a deep breath, and after a brief exchange of ideas, he spoke to the commander of the imperial guards.

After hearing Xiao Guizi's explanation, the commander of the imperial guards was shocked.

Then he knew why the prince wanted to kill all the rebels directly.

The commander of the imperial guards, who didn't dare to say much, nodded to Xiao Guizi immediately, indicating that he accepted the order.

After a while, the surrendered rebels were slaughtered by the imperial guards.

For a moment, the palace was filled with begging for mercy, screaming, questioning, and cursing.

Prince Yizhong looked pale as he watched the soldiers who followed him in the rebellion being slaughtered after surrendering.

He was held down by two imperial guards, struggling and roaring to see Emperor Jian'an.

The panicked eunuchs and maids in the back palace were busy at this moment.

When the funeral bells rang in the palace, Wang Ziteng had already led his troops into the city and began to exterminate the families and confiscate their homes!

The crowded people on the streets saw a large number of troops entering the city, and heard the funeral bells in the palace ringing, and they fled in panic and went home.

All forces and officials knew that the emperor had passed away when they heard the funeral bells from the palace.

Those with official positions or lords ordered their families to take down and hide all festive things or find white cloth to cover them.

And he hurried into the palace to prepare for the funeral.

It was just that when the nobles and officials who were attending the funeral saw the streets full of troops.

The palace transported the imperial guards out one by one, and the ominous premonition in their hearts became heavier.

After letting them into the palace, they saw Prince Yi Zhong, who was tied up and kneeling in front of the mourning hall in front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and heard what happened.

Everyone was stunned.

The emperor summoned the royal family and ministers above the third rank to pass the throne to the prince.

Then Prince Yi Zhong contacted the deputy commander of the imperial guards to launch a rebellion, which directly angered the emperor to death!

This... Prince Yi Zhong was not just rebelling, but rebelling and regicide.
