Your Majesty, please beg for mercy. The prince's rebellion was successful.

"Boss, why?"

Zhou Ping swallowed his saliva, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief.

Of course he knew that King Yong of Zhou would never massacre the city, so Zhou Ping thought there must be some other hidden story.

But he never imagined that the key to all this would be Zhou Zheng.

But before this, he had never heard Zhou Zheng have any idea of ​​massacring the city.

Even when facing the Great Xia Kingdom, when Zhou Zheng had absolute advantage, there was no massacre.

It is really unbelievable that this situation has occurred now.

Not only Zhou Ping, almost everyone present had the same feeling. They stood up suddenly, their eyes widened, their bodies trembling slightly. Even Xiao Mu, who was always calm and composed, felt his heart in his throat.

They didn't believe it could be Zhou Zheng, but when they thought about it carefully, it seemed that this was the only possibility.

The most important thing is that those present are Zhou Zheng’s closest people. At this critical juncture, Zhou Zheng has no reason or possibility to deceive them.

Since there is no deception and no need for lies, there is only one possibility left, that is, everything is as Zhou Zheng said.

The air was so quiet that even the sound of a pin dropping could be heard clearly.

For a moment, no one spoke. They just looked at Zhou Zheng quietly. They wanted an explanation, a reasonable explanation.

Why is this so!

They didn't believe that Zhou Zheng would kill innocent people indiscriminately, and no one thought that Zhou Zheng was bloodthirsty.

Therefore, there must be something hidden, and there must be a reason!

"You guys, really think I let King Yong massacre the city?!"

"Or do you really think that King Yong massacred the city?"

Zhou Zheng spread his hands without hiding much. He did not respond to the question directly. Instead, he looked at everyone present with a smile on his face and asked softly.

No massacre?!

But the whole world has already heard about it, so it can't be the result of a fake.

"wrong!"

"There really wasn't a massacre of the city. To be precise, I'm afraid we just killed the precise enemies!"

Finally, Yun Yun, who had been silent all the time, stood up. She looked at the man in front of her, her eyes full of appreciation and recognition.

This response made others more or less confused.

"What's the meaning?!"

However, Xiao Mu and others obviously haven't reacted yet.

"Countless people fled and became homeless. It is said that those cities were flooded with blood and corpses were scattered all over the ground."

“It’s all true, but it’s not all true.”

"If there was a real massacre, how could these people get out? They even look like they just traveled a long way and their nerves are tense. They don't look like they have been persecuted."

Yun Yun shrugged, and her expression eased a lot.

After hearing this, everyone suddenly realized and finally noticed the difference.

If we massacre the city, then we will not care about life or death, no one will be spared, we will eradicate the roots and kill everyone!

But the fact that some people escaped shows the problem.

This was definitely not King Zhou Yong's massacre of the city. After all, if 300,000 elite troops were to massacre the city, it would be enough to prevent even a bird from flying out.

"You mean, there was a massacre in the city, but it was far more serious than just a massacre of the city?"

Zhou Ping obviously reacted.

Zhou Zheng also picked up the teacup slowly, without any hurry, and then nodded, obviously quite satisfied with Yun Yun's analysis.

"That's right!"

“There was a massacre, but it was definitely not a massacre of the city.”

"Moreover, the targets of this massacre were not the common people, but the aristocratic families, the aggressive gentry, the big landlords, and the high-ranking officials who usually bully the common people."

Yun Yun exhaled fiercely from her chest, with a hint of pride in her eyes.

She had just carefully analyzed the news she had received. The whole world was hearing the news that King Yong of Zhou was massacring the city, and the news came from the mouths of the common people.

Given the anger and murderous intent of the aristocratic families and local gentry towards King Zhou Yong, they would definitely add insult to injury if given the chance.

But unfortunately, from beginning to end, there was no sight of these people.

In other words, it was not that they were merciful, it was not that they had changed their attitude towards King Zhou Yong, nor was it that they wanted to support Zhou Zheng, but that they had no chance to come out and spread rumors.

Because, in Yun Yun's opinion, if nothing unexpected happened, these people should all be dead!

They all died under the butcher knife of King Zhou Yong!

Yun Yun's analysis is very logical and clear.

For a moment, everyone was even impressed by him.

"Good, good, good!"

"I was wondering how Dad could do such a stupid thing. I was wondering how the boss could be so stupid."

"So, that's the truth!"

The person who felt most relieved at this time was Zhou Ping.

Whether this matter involves King Zhou Yong or Zhou Zheng, it is what he wants to see. Even according to previous speculation, people all over the world may be quite disgusted with Zhou Zheng.

In this way, the reputation that Zhou Zheng has worked so hard to accumulate over the years will be destroyed.

It would be extremely difficult to fight for the throne.

Now it seems that everything is not as they suspected before.

"Then let's release the news right away."

"This way, the people of the world can feel at ease, and the soldiers under my command can also stabilize their morale."

Xiao Mu also breathed a sigh of relief.

The noble families, high-ranking officials, and local gentry have never been their friends. Instead, they are their opponents and enemies, and they are the ones who want to fight to the death with them.

They will not feel any burden in their hearts to kill these people.

It will even get more support and recognition from the people.

Therefore, in Xiao Mu's opinion, as long as the truth is made public, the initiative will still return to their hands.

"That's right. In this tense atmosphere, people all over the world have long lost the ability to think calmly."

"It's not too late to remind them now."

Xiao Guan also responded quickly.

"Don't worry, the fun has just begun."

However, to everyone's surprise, Zhou Zheng was not in a hurry at this time.

Such an abnormal attitude and unreasonable state made Yun Yun and others shocked.

The longer the news spreads, the more unfavorable the situation will be for Zhou Zheng.

They knew very well that three people make a tiger.

When people in the world regard it as an absolute thing, any explanation will seem pale and powerless.

"Boss, if we wait any longer, the situation will get worse."

"Now, not only the people of the world, but even the Zhenbei Army is showing signs of unrest."

"If we can't pacify the Zhenbei Army as soon as possible, once the imperial army gathers, I'm afraid we won't have any chance."

Zhou Ping was as anxious as an ant on hot pan at this time. He wanted to urge Zhou Zheng to speed up.

But this time, Zhou Zheng didn't seem to intend to adopt Zhou Ping's idea.

"Could it be that Your Majesty has other ideas?!"

Yunxi knows Zhou Zheng quite well.

Although Zhou Zheng has lofty ambitions and the power to change the world, they never act rashly.

In other words, Zhou Zheng does not fight an unprepared battle.

It’s not that he doesn’t dare, but there are people behind him whom he wants to protect.

So in this situation, Zhou Zheng would definitely not act recklessly.

After all, if he loses this time, he will not only lose the throne, but also all the people and objects he cares about will become his souls under the sword.

He can't afford to lose, and he can't lose.

He can only win!

In this situation, all his actions must be correct.

Therefore, in Yunxi's opinion, there is only one possibility for Zhou Zheng to explain in a hurry, that is, Zhou Zheng still has a backup plan.

But, what is this backhand?

Having any backup plan is more important than the current decisive battle with the imperial court.

But unfortunately, Zhou Zheng didn't say anything.

He remained silent.

The others looked at each other. They couldn’t understand what Zhou Zheng was thinking, but since things had come to this point, everyone could only sigh.

"Boss, no matter what you do, I support you!"

"I, Zhou Ping, have said that in this life, I will follow you through life and death!"

"Whether I win or lose, whether I am criticized by the world, no matter the final result, I will not regret it!"

Instead, Zhou Ping took a step forward, took a deep breath, and bowed deeply to Zhou Zheng.

This is his attitude!

Upon seeing this, the others looked at each other, and then Zhenbei King Xiao Mu also looked up and smiled.

"I have fought many battles in my life, what have I not seen?!"

"Your Majesty, I am willing to stake my Sheng family's life on your Majesty's decision!"

This is Xiao Mu's attitude, and also the attitude of the Xiao family and the Zhenbei Army.
