Chapter 354 Killing in the Street
Some people were indignant, "How could General Pingxi come back in a prison car?"
"Yes, General Pingxi has made great achievements in the war, why would he treat her like this?"
More and more people are standing up for Chu Yue.
When Chu Yue heard this, her throat choked up. She was the one who ruined herself.
But she also sacrificed so much for Da Chu, so her merits and demerits should be able to offset each other.
She wanted to see her father, after all, her father owed her something.
As long as her father made the decision for her, perhaps she could at least survive.
She still had a glimmer of hope in her mind.
Unexpectedly, a voice came.
"I'll tell you!"
Qian Cheng in the second prison car grabbed the car and shouted.
"She, Chu Yue, stole the credit of Bai Zhenyuan and Mu Nanzhi, the couple of the Valiant Army, and Emperor Qingyuan used this to eliminate General Bai and his wife! This time, when the two countries went to war, it was Chu Yue who kidnapped the eldest prince of the Golden Scale Kingdom and provoked the war. Why do you think she is in the prison car!"
Chu Yue lowered her head, not daring to look at the disappointed eyes of the people.
There are so many people returning from the border, and each of them can serve as a witness. No one will believe anything she says.
The people looked at Chu Yue in amazement. How could General Pingxi be that kind of person?
Chu Yue knew that rebuttal would only lead to more people accusing her, so she calmly explained the aspects that were in her favor.
"When I went to the Golden Scale Kingdom as a hostage and you were protected, did anyone ever think about what would happen to me? Did anyone remember the sacrifices I made?"
"You only saw my past glory, no one cared how I came back alive."
"Only by gaining rights can I stop being controlled by others. What have I done wrong? Don't try to persuade others to be good without experiencing their suffering!"
After expressing the grievances she had suffered over the years, Chu Yue burst into tears.
The people were silent, and Chu Li listened to Chu Yue's accusations.
It is true that she suffered a lot of injustice back then, and it is also true that she turned bad later.
The people on the entire long street became unusually quiet because of Chu Yue's words.
Chu Yue held her breath so that when she came back, she could tell everyone about her grievances and let the people speak for her.
Qian Cheng sneered, "Come on, hypocrisy! You are as hypocritical as your father! When you were fighting for military merits, you felt at ease, but when you set fire to the border town, did you consider the lives of the people?"
Chu Yue was speechless. Her success and failure were all due to the city.
Chu Li looked back at Qian Cheng. This guy is quite good at talking and has strong fighting ability.
The people were shocked. The Japanese set fire to the people?
Were all the military achievements stolen?
"Who are you and why are you slandering General Pingxi!" Someone was unhappy.
Jiang Chengdong sneered, "Emperor Qingyuan used me, Jiang Chengdong, and charged me with corruption. Before confiscating my property, he even had tea and chatted with me in the imperial study the day before!"
"He did something bad and asked someone to take the blame. In front was me, Jiang Chengdong, and in the back was Grand Tutor Ye Hanting. You were all deceived by Emperor Qingyuan. He is the most disgusting person!"
When Jiang Chengdong's voice fell, the people were stunned.
Someone reacted, "Jiang Chengdong is the former Minister of Revenue, isn't he dead?"
The people were whispering to each other, saying that this ugly man was really not afraid of death and was cursing Emperor Qingyuan.
Chu Yue closed her eyes. Jiang Chengdong didn't want to live anymore? After scolding her, he still scolded his father.
Jiang Chengdong raised his voice, "The private treasury of Emperor Qingyuan has more silver than the national treasury. He excludes dissidents, is jealous of talented people, and is afraid of the Bai family, the Mu family, and the Grand Tutor. He is afraid that the prince will be more powerful than him and cut off the military rations of the Brave Army and the Great Chu Army. He doesn't want the prince to come back alive!"
"In broad daylight, open your eyes and look at that tyrant. Is he worthy of sitting on the throne?"
Jiang Chengdong let out a long roar to the sky. Today he finally didn't have to hide from place to place. He could finally expose the true face of Emperor Qingyuan in front of the people of the capital.
Chu Li gradually felt uneasy as he listened to Jiang Chengdong's words.
Jiang Chengdong's accusations were made with the determination to die, and he spoke the truth in front of all the people.
Jiang Chengdong is demanding fairness at the cost of his own life.
Her eyelids suddenly jumped, and she ordered her subordinates, "Quick, protect Jiang Chengdong and send him to Yuxuansi first!"
As soon as she finished speaking, there were sounds of whooshing arrows flying towards her from the tall building.
Jiang Chengdong was hit by several arrows.
Jiang Chengdong held on to the prison cart tightly to prevent himself from falling. He put himself in the game to let everyone see the true face of Emperor Qingyuan.
He seemed to see Emperor Qingyuan being stabbed to death on the high dragon throne.
He did a lot of bad things with Chu Yue, and he paid for it with his life. This can be considered as his way of repentance.
Chu Li looked back in horror and met Jiang Chengdong's excited eyes.
When he was dying, a smile of relief appeared on his terrifying and hideous face.
He died amid the people's screams of terror.
Chu Li sighed, Emperor Qingyuan had already started to act.
He wants to eliminate dissidents one by one.
However, killing people in the street does not seem to be Emperor Qingyuan's style.
The people immediately understood what was going on and pushed each other to leave.
It turns out that Emperor Qingyuan is such a person. It turns out that all his military achievements were stolen and he regarded the lives of the people as worthless.
"Archers, capture people, don't be afraid!" Chu Li gave an order, and the archers drew their bows and aimed at the tall building.
Mu Feng and Xie Jingchuan immediately split into two groups to search for the person.
Ye Hanting's eyes dimmed on the high building. This was the way of revenge that Jiang Chengdong had asked him to accomplish.
Two days ago, Jiang Chengdong strongly wanted to see him.
Tell him that he wants to prove the crime of Emperor Qingyuan and needs his help to place a few of his deadly guards in the tall building.
Jiang Chengdong actually took part in the game, sacrificed himself, and fabricated the illusion that Emperor Qingyuan had killed someone to silence him, thus confirming a series of crimes committed by Emperor Qingyuan.
Only in this way could the people believe that all his accusations against Emperor Qingyuan were true.
An emperor who loses the support of the people will not be able to stay on the throne for long.
He looked at Lan Yi and said, "Bury him properly and bury him with his family."
Lan Yi nodded, "Yes, Master."
The people were protected by the Chu army and gradually calmed down.
Chu Yue looked at Jiang Chengdong's miserable condition in horror and swallowed.
It must be my father's men who came to silence us. They actually dared to kill people in the street.
It can be seen that my father no longer cares about how the people view him.
Ye Hanting did everything perfectly, and Mu Feng and Xie Jingchuan didn't notice anyone.
Chu Li looked at these tall buildings and suddenly became suspicious.
These are all Ye Hanting’s industries.
The title deeds are in her hands.
She suddenly realized that this matter might be related to Ye Hanting.
She told Mu Feng and Xie Jingchuan not to investigate further.
From today on, the capital city will be full of twists and turns.
Maybe every day is more intense than on the battlefield.
She has to plan every step carefully and act cautiously to overthrow Emperor Qingyuan!
......
When the crown prince returned triumphantly, he should have first gone to see Emperor Qingyuan to report on his work.
But as soon as Chu Li came back, he went home to see his child under the protection of the shadow guards.
The sky is big and the earth is big, but nothing is bigger than family.
She doesn't care what Emperor Qingyuan thinks.
