Hearing what Li Shimin said, almost all the officials of the aristocratic family felt extremely bad feelings in their hearts.

The emperor was clearly prepared, and everything that happened now was in his design.

really.

Li Shimin's next words confirmed everyone's guess.

"Bring me the list I drew up. Anyone whose name is called will be pulled out to play twenty big boards!" Li Shimin's voice was low, and there was endless chill in his words.

soon.

A soldier came over with a list and handed it to Li Shimin respectfully.

Seeing that there was indeed a list that had been prepared in advance, all the officials of the family showed despair on their faces.

Before Li Shimin opened his mouth to speak, they looked at each other in blank dismay, their bodies even uncontrollably backing away, afraid that the first thing they saw would be their own name.

Pei Ji and Duan Lun looked at each other, and they both saw the shock in the other's expression.

The emperor actually wants to come for real!

"Wang Xiangxi!"

Under the horrified gaze of most people, the first name was read out.

As soon as Li Shimin's words fell, a middle-aged man in the crowd turned pale instantly, and his backing speed increased significantly.

Unfortunately.

His movements were still much slower, two armored soldiers rushed up ferociously, dragged him out directly, and pressed him to the ground before everyone could react.

at the same time.

The other two soldiers each carried a large wooden board and came directly in front of him.

"Do it!" Li Shimin gave the order without any sympathy.

The two soldiers standing next to the middle-aged man named Wang Xiangxi raised the wooden board in their hands without hesitation and hit it directly.

"Snapped……"

"Snapped……"

"Snapped……"

The crisp sound continued to be heard, accompanied by Wang Xiangxi's shrill scream.

Usually pampered, he didn't even have the chance to break his skin, but now he was directly hit by the board in front of everyone. The psychological humiliation was far greater than the physical pain.

of course.

The soldiers who did the fighting also had their own hands. Li Shimin had made relevant arrangements in advance, so they must not really hurt their lives.

otherwise.

With this kind of formation, if they sincerely want to make a move, it is estimated that their fragile bodies will fall apart immediately if they go down two boards.

For a total of [-] boards, every time he made a move, it was a huge torture for Wang Xiangyu. Before the number reached the standard, he passed out directly.

Seeing Wang Xiangxi lying motionless on the ground, the two soldiers in charge of laying the board looked a little strange, and they looked at each other and stood aside.

Make sense.

They didn't even display half of their strength, this guy is indeed too fragile.

Li Shimin glanced at the comatose Wang Xiangju lightly, and did not pursue the unfinished board, but picked up the list in his hand and continued to speak.

"Li Dongzhi!"

Another middle-aged man with a noble temperament was dragged out in a Chinese dress.

Seeing what happened to Wang Xiangyu, before anyone dragged him out, Li Dongzhi was already so weak that he couldn't even stand up.

When the two soldiers in charge of hitting the board raised the board in their hands, the guy was frightened and passed out on the spot, making the two of them look at each other, not knowing what to do.

Seeing Li Dongzhi's behavior like this, the remaining people suddenly had an idea in their hearts.

original.

As long as he appears to be passed out, the emperor will not pursue it too much, and when it is his turn, he can just pretend to be dead and get through it safely.

Unfortunately.

This illusion of theirs was quickly shattered!

"Bring water!" A sneer appeared on the corner of Li Shimin's mouth.

Regardless of whether this guy really passed out or not, it is absolutely impossible to escape punishment by using this.

Not long after, someone brought over a large bucket of water and poured it on Li Dongzhi's head without Li Shimin's order.

A cold feeling enveloped the whole body in an instant, and Li Dongzhi, who had fainted, gradually regained consciousness.

He discovered extremely sadly that even in this situation, he did not escape the fate of being beaten.

The two wooden boards fell straight down, and the painful guy screamed, completely lost his usual elegance and nobility, seeing the soldiers around him couldn't help being contemptuous.

The sound of hitting the board kept ringing, and all kinds of wailing sounds never stopped.

"Cui Yin!"

"Zheng Xuan!"

"Wang Ping..."

……

From noon to dusk, the entire square was full of wailing. I don't know how many people were so painful that they passed out and were woken up by forceful water.

This kind of physical and psychological torture made these people truly understand Li Shimin's methods.

nowadays.

The vast majority of people feel extremely regretful in their hearts. If they knew this, they would never have made such a direct enemy of the emperor.

The names of a small number of people, such as Pei Ji and Duan Lun, never came out of Li Shimin's mouth, but the number of people around them decreased one by one, and those who left were all carried away.

The more it is at this time, the greater the psychological oppression.

Even Pei Ji was not sure whether his name would be on that list, and what to do if he really dragged himself out.

To know.

He is completely different from the people around him. Not only is he an old man of the Tang Dynasty, but he also has an extraordinary relationship with the Supreme Emperor.

Not to mention the prestige in the court and the image in the hearts of the major families.

If he was directly dragged out to beat the board like everyone else today, I am afraid that no one will take him seriously in the future, maybe even the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan will start to despise him.

Fortunately.

When the sky was about to darken, Li Shimin finally put down the list in his hand, and the rest of the people were obviously not on it.

"You have all seen what happened today. This is the end of violating the laws of the country. I will not be merciful to anyone. I hope that you will not make the same mistake in the future!" Li Shimin stared at Pei Ji and the others calmly, saying every word said in a low voice.

This is a warning, but also a threat!
Li Shimin's voice was always calm, and his tall and straight figure was like a banner in the army.

Especially the smile on the corner of his mouth made many people feel chills.

Everything that happened today was clearly seen by everyone. Who can guarantee that one day he will not be one of them on the field?

Changsun Wuji, who was warned by Li Shimin some time ago, has a different experience at this moment.

In a sense, the person I was following in front of me was actually the same general in the army back then, with exactly the same style and momentum.

It is not His Majesty the emperor who is so powerful and merciless today...
