Since ancient times, the Central Plains has ruled the world with "filial piety", so it's fine for him to kill his father and relatives, but now he even forces the Tian family's mother and son to kill each other in such a critical time! The principles of morality in the world are completely trampled under his feet!

Some conservative ministers have flushed with anger.

The voice of reprimand is endless.

However, Xie Wei remained motionless, as if he had never heard of it.

He has always done what he wants to do, but he doesn't need to explain to anyone, and he doesn't need others to understand the reason at all.

Even though everyone regards him as a devil.

Jiang Xuening looked at him from a distance in the crowd, and felt a dull pain in her heart.

Xie Wei looked at them, and just gently urged: "Isn't it hard to choose?"

Those who don't know the inside story of the year say that he is insane; but those who know or guess, faintly realize that behind his actions, there must be hidden secrets of the year!

Could it be that, more than twenty years ago, there was such a choice before Xie Wei?

No one can confirm.

Empress Dowager Xiao has been frightened continuously since she was dragged here.

Hearing this at this time, he finally reacted.

She clearly didn't think Xie Wei was very similar to Xiao Yuan or Yan Min back then, but thinking of the location of the secret room that shouldn't be known, and the familiar dilemma in front of her, she couldn't believe the original situation in her mind. Horrible conjectures emerged.

Empress Dowager Xiao's eyes were about to burst.

As if seeing an evil spirit, she pointed at him tremblingly, her voice seemed to be tearing apart: "It's you! It's you!!"

However, she was too emotional, almost all her attention was put on Xie Wei, so that she didn't see at all, less than five steps away from her, Shen Lang with disheveled hair and dark eyes , has already picked up the knife that Xie Wei threw on the ground earlier.

A mocking pity flashed across Xie Wei's eyes.

Xiao Shu from behind let out an exclamation.

The knife was tightly held by one hand, and it easily penetrated the Queen Mother Xiao's body, from her back to her chest. When she lowered her head to look, she could even see the reflection of herself on the blood-stained blade surface. With a somewhat bewildered face.

The courtier who had been scolding constantly before, suddenly seemed to be slapped in the face by someone, all words stopped abruptly, and there was no more sound!

In the Taiji Hall, only the sound of the blade slowly being pulled away from the body can be heard.

Empress Dowager Xiao staggered two steps.

The blood on the back of her chest couldn't be covered at all, and it flowed outward like a spring. She finally turned around and saw her back clearly——

What a familiar face was that?

She was the eldest son who was raised by her own hands. He fought against many concubines in the palace for him, forced Dingfei, who was less than seven years old, to die in his place, and even agreed to marry his daughter to Tatar for him...

"Lang'er..."

Empress Dowager Xiao saw him holding a knife and standing there silently, but she couldn't believe what just happened. But the physical pain was so clear she couldn't comfort herself that it was just a nightmare.

Unbearable flashed across Shen Lang's eyes for a moment, but in an instant it became the kind of coldness and ruthlessness unique to emperors. In his eyes, everyone in the world is nothing but vegetation!

Even if this is his biological mother!

Holding the knife, he said awe-inspiringly: "The country is in danger, and I have wronged my mother this time. It's just that what happened back then has nothing to do with my sons and ministers. It was my mother's arrogance, forcibly threatening Yan's life to force Ding Fei, who was still young, I have suffered it from generation to generation! I didn’t know the world back then, but I always toss and turn over it every time I think about it these years, thinking about my own past! Now that he’s back, it’s time for my mother to repent!”

Xie Wei didn't mention it himself, but Shen Lang and the others talked about each other, but they successively shook up the things of that year.

The courtiers have been able to guess the truth more than twenty years ago based on this—

There has never been a loyal savior. The young Dingfei didn't go there voluntarily, but for the safety of the Yan family. The Empress Dowager Xiao coerced Li Daitao to go to the rebel army to die!

However, these words sounded like a fog to Shen Jie.

He had no idea what Shen Lang was talking about.

When he saw Shen Lang's knife pass through the body of Empress Dowager Xiao, there was already a "buzz" in his head, and he could hardly believe what happened.

Shen Jie has always known that he is not the same person as the emperor's brother and the queen mother. But he thought that blood and family ties were maintained, and no matter what, they would not do anything to kill each other!

Even when Xie Wei said those words just now, he didn't think that what he said would actually happen.

However at this moment...

He only felt that the imperial brother standing in front of him had turned into a bloodthirsty beast, and for a moment he aroused the **** courage in his chest, and stepped forward to push him away: "What are you doing?!"

Empress Dowager Xiao was dying.

Shen Lang's high-sounding words made her feel a great irony!

Shen Jie half knelt down and took her into his arms, and called out one after another: "Mother's queen, mother's queen!"

Two lines of tears fell from Empress Xiao's eyes.

When she was about to die, she laughed miserably. She didn't know whether she was laughing at this absurd God, or at the so-called royal affection, or at her poor and pathetic self: "Hahaha, retribution, retribution, no one can do it." Can't escape! No one can escape—"

The voice stopped abruptly when it was at its sharpest and high pitched.

The warm blood in her throat came out of her mouth, she struggled feebly twice, and finally collapsed.

Shen Jie cried out: "Mother, mother—"

But he was just a weak man.

He neither had the courage to question his mother-killing brother, nor the courage to take revenge on Xie Wei who was the instigator, so he could only hug the empress dowager Xiao's body and cry bitterly.

Who would have thought that Shen Lang had already made his choice without even a moment's worth of time before and after!

The courtiers only felt palpitations in their hearts.

Even the Tianjiao Rebel Army who came all the way felt that they couldn't bear to be seen.

Wan Xiuzi was stunned for a long time, but then he clapped his hands and laughed, not even caring about the wound on his abdomen, raised his finger to the pool of blood stained in front of the Tai Chi Hall, and said excitedly: "Did you see it? Tianhuang nobleman! This is the heavenly noble who sits high in the Forbidden City! No one in the market may have done such a tragic thing! Heavenly noble? Pooh, pigs are worse than dogs! Hahahaha..."

As he spoke, he spat on the ground.

The contempt is beyond words.

Only Xie Wei sighed softly, and seemed a little regretful: "It's too easy to die..."

After the silence around, there were somewhat discussions.

Almost everyone's eyes fell on Shen Lang's face.

He was still holding a blood-stained knife in his hand, and he could probably guess what everyone was talking about him, but the temperament of the former emperor in front of him had been fully demonstrated just now!

If you don't make a choice, two people will die!

That being the case, it would be better for him to give Empress Dowager Xiao a happy first.

Shen Lang looked at Xie Wei: "You know what happened back then, and it was all the queen mother's own opinion. You were originally my reading companion, but I didn't know about it all these years. Why should you hide it from me? If you had If you tell me something, I will issue an edict to the world to seek justice for you."

He is really a king.

Xie Wei looked at him, a smile appeared on his lips, but he didn't reply, he just raised his hand and pointed: "What about her?"

Wherever he passed his fingers, everyone was terrified.

But in the end, most people are false alarms.

Those slender fingers finally pointed to Xiao Shu, who was gorgeous in palace attire but pale-faced behind her!

Her father, her younger brother, and her aunt were already lying on the ground...

Now, it's finally her turn!

At this time, without saying a word, everyone already understood: Xie Wei clearly wanted to exterminate the Xiao family, leaving no room for it! Anyone with this surname will be killed!

Xiao Shu is different from Empress Dowager Xiao, Empress Dowager Xiao is the emperor's biological mother, but she is just the emperor's favorite concubine.

To Shen Lang, she is just a tool to vent her desire and plot.

She knew that if Xie Wei wanted her to die today, she would not survive tomorrow...

But what he has done in this life is not to be manipulated by others.

Why do you climb up step by step and strive for it, but what you get in return is that you can't even control your life?

Shen Lang raised his knife and approached her step by step, Xiao Shu raised her head with tears in her eyes, neither looking at Shen Lang nor Xie Wei, but at this moment, looking at the man who was staring at her from afar. Jiang Xuening!

The absurd feeling of being teased by fate has never been so strong.

In the first nineteen years of her short life, she was almost perfect, and she didn't even make a big mistake; but all the changes came from Yang Zhizhai's companion, who was afraid of Jiang Xuening and framed the case between her and Yu Ruyi It was related, but lost his hand, and a grudge has been formed ever since.

Now, she is Xie Wei's sweetheart, and although she has become the emperor's favorite concubine, she is not even as good as a prisoner!

One wrong step, one wrong step.

That's all.

When the blade passed through her body, Xiao Shu felt endless coldness, but she finally withdrew her gaze, looked at the ruthless emperor in front of her, no longer the meekness of the past, and said almost cursingly: "Do you think you can escape? "

Shen Lang didn't care about this woman's life or death.

Hearing that she uttered such vicious words, anger surged in her heart, she even pulled out the knife, and cut her throat again, so that she could no longer make a sound, and fell down.

So far, the most important members of the Xiao Clan are almost dead.

Jiang Xuening remembered that it seemed to be the same in the previous life. Although the way of death was not the same, the ending didn't seem to be much different.

She has been fighting with Xiao Shu for so many years.

But in fact, no one has ever fought anyone.

Xiao Shu died under the sword of the rebel army first, and even the Xiao family was slaughtered by Xie Wei; and not long after she was dying, she also committed suicide in Kunning Palace...

It's just that in this life, she gave up learning, but Xiao Shu took a more crooked path than the previous life...

When she saw Xiao Shu fall down, she couldn't tell what she felt in her heart.

I just felt like there was nothing wrong.

Karma, no one will let it go.

At this moment, Xie Wei was no longer just a devil standing in front of everyone's eyes. The one who looked more like a devil than him was clearly the emperor who originally sat high on the golden palace!

Shen Lang said: "I can give an order to raz the Xiao family, and I will never tolerate it!"

Xie Wei just put his hands behind his back and said with a smile: "Don't be so hypocritical to me, let's see if the person you are waiting for arrives, the time is coming, isn't it?"

Shen Lang had previously thought that he knew something, but now that he heard him explain it so clearly, his heart panicked.

He didn't think there was anything wrong with killing Queen Mother Xiao and Xiao Shu.

As long as Xie Wei doesn't attack him immediately, he may not be able to wait for the opportunity to turn things around. So he endured the humiliation and humiliation, and in turn uttered flattering words to Xie Wei, but who would have thought that Xie Wei would also know his intentions!

At this moment, Shen Lang almost thought that the other party would attack him immediately.

But also at this moment—

When the Xinzhou Army arrived before, the voice that everyone had heard resounded in the distance of the palace again, approaching from the Shunzhen Gate in the northeast corner all the way to the Taiji Hall.

There is no flag, and there is no way to see.

One soldier after another was wearing only black armor, his military appearance was clean, and he was marching extremely fast. There were tens of thousands of people who could only see.

And for this army, surrounded by the center is a woman.

The deep purple palace dress was worn on her body, but no makeup was applied on her face, and the scars at the corners of her eyes were almost the same as her face, which was noticed by everyone immediately.

Jiang Xuening suddenly froze.

She called out: "Your Highness!"

However, when he was about to go forward, a hand grabbed her forcefully from the side.

Jiang Xuening looked back, it was Yan Lin.

He didn't let her come forward, with a gloomy brilliance in his eyes, he only asked in a low voice, "Do you still remember what I told you before?"
