This Prince Consort Is No Pushover!

At this time, Yun Ruoyue walked towards Chu Xuanchen and said, "Xuanchen, it is indeed hateful for these few people to betray the country and seek glory, but their family members are innocent, can you give a lighter punishment?"

Yun Ruoyue, who has received a modern education, cannot accept the ancient punishment of punishing the nine and three clans at every turn.

The families of these officials are innocent. It would be too cruel to punish the Nine Clan directly!

Just like how the family of Taifu Han was clearly innocent, but they were all killed.

Therefore, she hopes that this kind of thing will never happen again in the future.

Seeing Yun Ruoyue say this, Chu Xuanchen grabbed her hand without thinking about the test, and said solemnly, "Okay, Yue'er, I will listen to you."

After he finished speaking, he looked at those people and said sternly: "For the sake of Princess Li's plea for you, this king may not punish your nine clans, but you guys are extremely sinful and deserve to be executed. As for your family members, you must be executed. , all the males were exiled, and none of the wives and daughters became official slaves, and the other servants were dismissed on the spot as an example."

When Geng Tian and others heard such punishment, they immediately froze for a moment.

Su Ming said coldly: "Geng Tian, ​​the lord has already treated you lightly, why don't you thank the lord soon?"

"Yes, yes." Geng Tian said, and quickly kowtowed to Chu Xuanchen, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness."

They originally thought that they would be punished by the nine clans, but they didn't expect Princess Li to save their family with a single word.

Even being exiled and not serving as an official slave is better than being directly beheaded.

So they didn't dare to make trouble, and calmly accepted the fact.

If they make trouble again, I am afraid that His Royal Highness Liwang will change his mind.

When Yun Ruoyue saw such a result, she breathed a sigh of relief.

She doesn't agree with sitting together, but the ancient punishment is different from the modern one, and it can't be changed in a while.

Serious crimes like betraying the country are generally punishable by the nine clans.

However, Xuanchen only punished the officials and their families, and released the servants, but did not implicate their relatives, so it can be seen that he has already turned a blind eye.

As for these officials, they usually like to form parties for personal gain, corruption and bribery.

At this time, Chu Xuanchen looked at the soldiers behind him and said, "Come here, drag these traitors down and execute them immediately!"

"Yes." After the soldiers answered, they hurried to drag Geng Tian and others.

Soon, they dragged the officials down.

When the others saw this, they all sighed in their hearts.

Princess Li is really important in King Li's heart. Her words can make King Li change his mind.

It can be seen how much His Royal Highness Li Wang cares about her.

This time, no one dared to look down on her, and no one dared to look down on her.

At this time, Su Ming hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Your Highness and Princess, you have come all the way, and you have worked extremely hard. I am afraid you need to rest. Now that these traitors have been dealt with, can the Prince immediately move into the palace and go to the palace to rest? "

"Entering the palace?" Chu Xuanchen said lightly.

Su Ming hurriedly said: "Yes, now the emperor has fled the palace, the palace is in chaos, no one can take the lead. The prince drove the enemy away for us, and is the biggest hero of the Chu state. The prince is the only direct son of the first emperor. Of course, only Only the prince can take charge of the overall situation. Besides, the witnesses who witnessed the emperor's killing of the late emperor were also in the palace."

Taishi Li, Jiang Muyu and several other ministers also quickly bowed their hands to Chu Xuanchen and said solemnly: "Xiaguan and others welcome the prince into the city, and welcome the prince into the palace."

Seeing what everyone said, Chu Xuanchen frowned and said, "Well then, the king will follow you into the palace."

Seeing that everyone eagerly called himself into the palace, Chu Xuanchen thought that they must have something to say to him.

Then he went to see and see what these people thought.

"My lord, please." Su Ming said, and then said to the guards, "come here, hurry up and lead the way, and welcome the lord to enter the city."

"Congratulations to the prince to enter the city." The soldiers on both sides also made a mighty voice, and their voices resounded through the earth, which was very shocking.

Looking at these soldiers, after Chu Xuanchen and Yun Ruoyue nodded, the two quickly mounted their horses, led the large army, and walked towards the palace.

Along the way, the two of them were very emotional when they saw the streets on both sides.

It has been three years since they left Shengjing City for three years, and now they finally come back, only to find that Shengjing City has changed a long time ago.

It has long since lost its former prosperity and prosperity.

Now it is broken, old, gray, and full of decay, like a seriously ill old man with sores all over his body.

What used to be bright and vibrant, has long since turned into dilapidated and shabby.

Chu Xuanchen really couldn't believe it. It turned out that this was the most prosperous and desirable place in the country of Chu.

When the carriage passed the Liwang Mansion, Chu Xuanchen and Yun Ruoyue deliberately stopped.

They looked at the gate of the palace, only to find that in the past three years, there has been no change in the palace of Liwang.

It was still as majestic, solemn and solemn as before, but there was no one in it, and it seemed very deserted.

Chu Xuanchen knew that the reason why Li Wangfu did not become dilapidated was because the eldest princess and Su Qishao had sent people to maintain it for a long time.

Seeing the big mansion in front of him, the scene where he and Yue'er lived here in the past came to his mind, how happy and happy it was.
