Realm of Power

It rained heavily, and the rainwater washed over the eaves on both sides of the street, forming a stream of thin water beads hitting the street. The rain curtain outlined the city with scattered streets and alleys, but this rainwater was different from the past, forming a pattern from Luojia Avenue to Qingqing Street. criss-crossing, the most criss-crossing in the city All the bustling streets were filled with red rainwater. There were no pedestrians on the streets. There were only groups of black-armored imperial cavalry with stern expressions on their faces. There is something yet to come The blood stains have been washed away. The Central Asians who have experienced the war have learned what self-protection is. When they wake up and see the streets filled with murderous imperial soldiers, no one is stupid enough to go out to seek misfortune. However, I still can't help my curiosity. Countless windows on the streets along the way were opened a crack, and many pairs of curious eyes were looking at the backs of the black imperial cavalry as they flew away. The blood that washed down with the rain showed what had happened." He killed someone, someone is coming."

Someone was running desperately in the rain. The sound louder than his voice was the rolling horse hooves. The man fell to the ground. He got up covered in mud in the rain and continued running. In the hazy light and shadow, the black Imperial Cavalry He stepped on behind him and fell into the bloody rain without even having time to scream. The imperial cavalry that was passing by seemed to jump off their horses in great annoyance. He pulled out his scimitar and stabbed the man more than ten times in a row. After his flesh and blood were completely covered in blood, he raised the knife with his still unfinished hand, hung a human head on his horse, and took a demonstrative glance at the unusually quiet streets around him before he raised his voice. "And go" seems to be the youngest son of the Qian family. The one who married into the rich family just three days ago seems to be a talented person. Unexpectedly, the Qian family is also ruined. How many people have to die to be the leader?"

"What happened to these Imperial people? They suddenly became like this. It's so scary!" The low voices behind the window, the sound of gasping for air, and the hesitant and fearful faces, these six months on Dijing West Road The calmness seems to have almost made people forget that the empire that rules this area is famous for its cruelty, and it is the murderous one. Damn, the empire has slaughtered countless cities and destroyed countries. Now these ferocious cavalry, the blood-stained long street, and the contemptuous look of the imperial cavalry on the entire street remind them that their life and death are important to the empire, even those in the past. The high-ranking businessmen and big families are no better than a blade of grass on the roadside in front of the empire's killing machine.

At this moment, on the second floor on the street side, an imperial official hurriedly walked up the steps and reported to the beautiful figure standing by the railing, staring at the rain-colored city, the situation of the city's suppression, the An family, the Xiao family, Wei family. ....... Lu family, Qian family... Every time a name was reported, the clerk next to him used a thick red pen to cross out the name from the list. In just half a minute, the list was originally covered with two large yellow rice papers. , there are only a dozen or so left, with red lines daubed one after another. Under each one are at least hundreds of lives. It looks so shocking, but Li Yuehua's eyes, standing on the railing, are still as cold as snow.

"Where is Kumi Li Er?" Li Yuehua raised his hand, interrupted the officer's report, turned around and asked, as one of the four major forces in the Business Alliance, he is the top priority on the list.

"The Kumi clan left the city yesterday and went to the Imperial Capital collectively," the officer replied with an embarrassed look on his face.

"This guy is really fast. Forget it, ignore him and keep talking."

Li Yuehua hesitated for a moment and waved her hand. She had long suspected that Kumi Li Er was related to the Yelu family. She originally wanted to use this chaos to cut off the tentacles of the Yelu family extending into the Imperial Capital West Road. Anyway, The Yelu family did not say it clearly. If they suppressed it, they would suppress it. If Yelu Qiyeguang asked about it afterwards, he would You can also push the order to the emperor. Yelu Qiyeguang is currently busy conquering Dongbo. Even if he wants to compete with himself, it will be a few months later. By then, the entire Imperial Capital West Road has been integrated, and the emperor will only If you express your acquiescence to this matter, you can cut off an arm of the Yelu family for nothing, so why not do it?

Eighty thousand imperial cavalry, this large net was spread out, covering almost 60% of the aristocratic families and big businessmen on the Imperial Capital West Road. The number of lives involved is probably more than 20,000 to 30,000, and many of them are related to Zhongbia. The court is inextricably linked, and the Li family Intelligence sent from the front line showed that the Central and Asian court was as afraid of the empire as a tiger, but privately they secretly moved their relatives and clans to Dijing West Road. Because of the chaos in the Central and Asian regions, only the imperial area was the whole of Central and Asian countries. The most stable and safe area in the region

Although the policy of unified treatment weakened the privileges of the high-ranking families, the families who went to Dijing West Road from the south, who came with a large amount of funds, quickly established a foothold on Dijing West Road, and even Xiao , the two big families of Wei and Wei took care of them, and soon formed a considerable force on Dijing West Road. Even Li Yuehua did not dare to take action easily with such power, because once But if you take action, what will be touched is not a few hundred or a few thousand people, but a purge of tens of thousands of people. These businessmen from the Central and Asian families are grouped together, and they are already faintly poaching the corner of the Imperial Capital West Road. They want to gain more power in the empire. Under the rule, a special privileged class was formed, and they continued their carefree life on Imperial Capital West Road. This was also the reason why Princess Mingyue showed weakness in this matter.

Many of these aristocratic families from the south are famous families in Zhongbia, and there are even branches of the royal family. Even if Princess Mingyue, who was born in the royal family, understands how these moths can attack, Zhongbia has been in turmoil for five years. On the grassland, Under the brutal invasion of the nation, the once prosperous Imperial Capital has There used to be flying catkins all over the city, piles of bones and ruins in the wilderness, and a thousand years of civilization was destroyed by the blades of horse hoofs. Now we finally have a stable period. Who has the heart to break it? If it were before, Li Yuehua might have opened his eyes. Close one eye, but everything changed a month ago,

The head of the Li family, Li Tai, was forced to die by the Zhongbia court, and the Li family was forced to have no foothold. Li Yuehua's resentment towards the Zhongbia court family finally broke out!

What happened in the city was just the tip of the iceberg of this storm, but no one knew yet that this plan had been decided a month ago. On the night when the news of the death of the head of the Li family, Li Tai, came, Li Yuehua Just staring at the sea of ​​lights on Dijing West Road The whole city was full of songs, writing the names of the aristocratic families on the yellow paper. Others did not know the details of these aristocratic families. How could the Li family be strangers to these aristocratic families as they had been the head of the court ministers for decades? Even if the other party changed his name, he still couldn't hide it from Li Yuehua's intelligence network.

"Except for Kumi Li Er who went to the Imperial Capital, there are still six families that have not been eliminated, mainly because they are far away and it takes time to deliver the news."

After the officer counted them one by one, he closed the list in his hand and said respectfully, everyone said that the emperor killed people without blinking an eye. When the beautiful Central Bian woman in front of him heard that tens of thousands of heads fell, he also said I didn’t even look at my brows, but my eyes The light is shining and fascinating. The greatest advantage of power is probably that many things can be dealt with within a small scope. Just like now, tens of thousands of people are killed, and whoever dares to stand up will be killed. For a moment, Li Yuehua was a little grateful to the emperor. Iron-fisted method, these people all deserve to die. If it weren't for the court figures behind them, the Li family would not be like this. Li Tai, who had dedicated his life to China and Bia for decades, would not have died. For the overall interests of the empire, the emperor Do not allow yourself to show off to China and Bia. "I will retaliate, but the eradication of hidden dangers on the Imperial Capital West Road is the emperor's own order. With the emperor's sword, what else do I have to worry about?" His Majesty was prepared to watch Li Yuehua go crazy like this. This is tens of thousands. A life!"

In a villa, Princess Mingyue stared intently at the black-haired young man who was slowly drinking tea in front of her. Her elegant white palace dress covered her undulating figure. There was a string of tassels on her chest decorated with gorgeous lace patterns, which followed her. The long white arms swayed in front of her chest. The emperor wanted to take action against the four major forces. Princess Mingyue also acquiesced, but no one expected that when Li Yuehua arrived, This place is as big as a bunkhouse. As news came one by one, the aristocratic families from Zhongbia in the south were purged. Princess Mingyue, who had originally maintained a tacit attitude, became anxious. Such killings have not been seen for a long time. , and Princess Mingyue didn't know whether Li Yuehua was making the decision without permission or was under the emperor's order, so she angrily came to the emperor to confront him.

"I don't know what's going on? How come so many people died?"

After hearing Princess Mingyue's accusation, the fat man pretended to be surprised and put down the tea cup in his hand. He raised his head and looked at Princess Mingyue who was glaring across from him. After being silent for more than ten seconds, he said, "The Zhongbia court is pressing forward against the Li clan. It is normal for Li Yuehua to act like this, not to mention These aristocratic families from the Zhongbia court have become so rampant on Dijing West Road. If they are not dealt with, they will be a big trouble in the future. Instead, it is better to let Li Yuehua remove them all at once, otherwise they will really be embedded in the flesh. If you want to pull it out, it will be painful It hurts. I don’t think Li Yuehua did anything wrong. As a Zhongbia who still has such awareness, I know that I have not misjudged the person! These scattered people in troubled times never thought of threatening the emperor. The rule of the country, but now innocent people are being massacred by the empire, is it possible for Your Majesty to just sit back and watch? "Princess Mingyue did not expect that the emperor not only did not order to stop Li Yuehua, but also showed an expression of approval for Li Yuehua, and his entire neck turned into anger. pink

"There is nothing I can do. Even if I ask Li Yuehua to stop now, it will be useless."

The fat man touched his nose with his finger, and his old face couldn't help but blush. Li Yuehua took advantage of his order to take bloody revenge. After annihilating the three major forces, it quickly spread to other aristocratic families and businessmen. He had already received the order. Reported, but he had no intention of stopping Li Yuehua

"Li Yuehua dares to do this, it won't be your majesty..." Princess Mingyue's face turned pale, her whole body felt cold, and she took a few steps back. From the calm look on the emperor's face, we knew that what Li Yuehua did, the emperor He knows, and may even be the one who gave the order.

"I didn't give such an order, but I won't stop it."

The fat man shrugged his shoulders, took a deep breath and said, "Li Yuehua borrowed a knife from the Empire. The Empire also wanted to use Li Yuehua's knife to uproot the Central Asian court forces that had infiltrated the Imperial Capital West Road in the past six months. The Empire knew this, and Li Yuehua knew it too, so Li Yuehua dared to do it so recklessly. As long as it was beneficial to the Empire, Li Yuehua believed that even if she killed all the Central Asian aristocratic forces in the Imperial Capital West Road, I would at most only reprimand them for "excessive pursuit". Li Yuehua personally arranged the means by which the Empire treated the aristocracy in the occupied areas of the Western Continent." The Empire was often very harsh and cruel to these so-called aristocrats and families. In order to stabilize its rule, it would often randomly frame up a reason to exterminate the entire family when dealing with stubborn elements. This was also a reason why the aristocratic families in the Empire's occupied areas were often able to eagerly transform into businessmen in just three or four months. Since this was the case in the Western Continent, why not in Central Asia? Since those noble families with the background of the Central and Asian court have come to my Imperial Capital West Road, they must do what the empire requires, but look at what they have done? They bully the market, monopolize the trade routes, and even use this to threaten against the Imperial Bank. Even Lu Yangyu, the Imperial Bank deacon, was detained privately. Can these people be considered to be just avoiding disaster? If it weren't for Bonnie Berlant returning home injured, according to the iron-fisted measures of the empire, do you think they can still survive until now? "The fat man paused and looked at Princess Mingyue with a cold look." Ding Ding Ding! "

The evening bell of the Jiemie Zen Temple came from a distance. In the rain, there was an indescribable beauty of sadness and loneliness. On the long street, the messenger cavalry brought the news back and forth. Looking down from the sky, spots of flickering light have begun to light up in the city. For a whole day, tens of thousands of people fell to the ground, and the rain was like crying, but it could not shake Li Yuehua's murderous intent." The emperor's order did not come after all, indicating that the emperor also thought that these people deserved to die! "Li Yuehua withdrew her gaze from the rain and loosened her clenched fists. The last message was delivered. Although they were not completely wiped out, they had truly uprooted the Central Biya people who had infiltrated the West Road of the Imperial Capital. A piece of yellow rice paper was filled with crossed-out red bars, making it almost impossible to write. Li Yuehua picked up the yellow rice paper, took a look at it, and lit it with the brazier next to her. She watched the yellow rice paper rolling in the fire with flashing eyes. The names on it turned black. She smiled coldly at the corners of her pretty mouth and blew at the burning yellow rice paper. The flying confetti was scattered in the rain, and the faint blood red on the street ground. Today, I, Li Yuehua, will let the entire Central Biya court know what the pain of losing a loved one is!
