Quick Wear: The Demon Lord blew up the tomb at the beginning

Hugh?

The whole court was shocked. They didn't expect the final outcome to be this.

Only men can divorce their wives, how can a woman divorce her husband?

At most, it would be just a divorce.

They looked at Wei Changche and Xie Lang and found that their expressions did not change, it seemed that they already knew.

Even though they felt that it was a bit inappropriate for Wei Qingming to divorce her husband at this time, they thought about what crime Si Haodang had committed. If they spoke up, they might be regarded as an accomplice, so they acquiesced to the divorce.

"Wei Qingming, are you really so heartless? Even if you don't consider yourself, you should consider the child. The child cannot be without a father!"

Si Haodang was completely panicked, so he took out his last trump card, which was the child.

The child cannot live without a father. For the sake of the child, Wei Qingming should also save his life.

"Then just find another father." Wei Qingming replied naturally, in a calm tone: "By the way, my child's surname is Wei, and has nothing to do with your Si family."

Si Haodang couldn't accept this fact. He struggled hard and shouted with all his might, his voice already hoarse: "No - you can't do that, you can't be so ruthless..."

However, no matter what Si Haodang said at this time, Wei Qingming did not answer him, but bowed in the direction of Wei Changche and Xie Lang: "Your Majesty, mother, I have divorced my husband. Please let your majesty and mother decide what to do next."

"Princess, Qingming is your daughter, and you are the victim. The verdict should be decided by you."

Wei Changche turned his gaze to Xie Lang, and everyone present also looked over there.

During the grand trial, Xie Lang did not speak, but everyone could not ignore her.

The final decision is hers.

"Princess, please spare me, please spare me, please spare me this time, okay? I will treat Qingming well in the future, and Qingming's child cannot lose his biological father!!" Si Haodang looked at Xie Lang with pleading eyes, and then kowtowed heavily. The sound of kowtows rang out, and soon a pool of blood appeared on the ground.

Except for Si Haodang's kowtow and begging for mercy, everyone present was silent, but their hearts were pounding.

They were waiting for Xie Lang's final verdict.

Xie Lang slowly stood up at this time, and everyone's heart was gripped, but Si Haodang was still kowtowing and begging for mercy.

"Killing my daughter's life and exterminating my entire clan... It's too easy."

Xie Lang looked outside the palace. The sky was getting brighter. He paused for a moment and said, "Destroy all ten clans and I will be executed by slow slicing."

A simple sentence determined Si Haodang's fate and the life and death of hundreds or thousands of people.

Punish ten clans???

The court officials were stunned for a moment. They had only heard of the execution of nine generations of a family.

The nine clans include four from the father’s clan, three from the mother’s clan, and two from the wife’s clan.

Wei Qingming had already divorced Si Haodang, so he was naturally not among the nine clans.

Even among the nine clans, who dares to kill him?

But this is the extermination of nine clans, so what is the extermination of ten clans?

"Princess, do you know who this tenth clan is?" Just when the ministers were confused, the Left Censor-in-Chief Su Dayou asked the question.

Apart from the nine clans, where would the tenth clan come from?

"Didn't the Ministry of Justice arrest a group of officials who were in league with Si Haodang yesterday?"

Su Dayou's eyes became stern, and the corners of his mouth began to tremble. If this continued, there would be a lot of casualties!

He changed his mind immediately. Since Si Haodang was the Marquis of Cheng'en, there were naturally many officials close to him, and he also placed some of his confidants in the court.

It wouldn't be unfair to kill these ten tribes, including them.

The problem is that this range is difficult to judge.

Seeing Su Dayou's hesitation, Xie Lang said in a deep voice: "All officials who have been promoted by Si Haodang or bribed Si Haodang should be executed."

In the end, she was merciful and did not expand the scope further.

Su Dayou felt relieved after hearing this.

If having a meal or drinking a cup of tea with Si Haodang is considered as forming a clique.

How many of the officials in the court can survive?

Many officials present breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

"Doctor Qian and Si Haodang's concubine Song Yirou should also be executed along with their entire clans."

Xie Lang did not forget that in addition to Si Haodang, the main culprit, Doctor Qian and Song Yirou were also involved. Xie Lang would naturally not let these people go easily.

"No...no, Princess, please spare me, please spare me..."

Si Haodang was already in tears at this time, sobbing and his eyes were full of despair. He kowtowed continuously, and the smell of blood filled the entire hall.

He regretted it. He didn't expect Xie Lang to be so cruel. If he could do it again, he would never treat Wei Qingming like that.

Xie Lang was indifferent to this. He stood on the steps, looking down from above, his black and red robes swaying slightly, and said calmly: "All blessings and disasters are self-inflicted."

"Take him away and execute him in seven days."

"No - no -" The shrill screams echoed throughout the hall. The guards quickly carried Si Haodang away, and he struggled desperately. His feet kicked this and that, kicking in the pool of blood he had left.

Seeing that he was not cooperating, the guards dragged him out. His bloody feet touched the ground, leaving a dark red bloodstain.

Wei Changche frowned and gave an order. The eunuchs quickly cleaned up the traces on the ground. After a while, the hall returned to its original appearance.

The case of Si Haodang murdering the princess has come to an end.

But the meeting was not over yet.

At this time, Xie Lang walked down from the steps with steady steps. If you look closely, you can see that every step of Xie Lang is exactly the same, as if they were measured with a ruler.

As Xie Lang approached, the feeling of oppression grew stronger and stronger, and everyone's heart was pounding.

He walked in front of Wei Qingming and then stopped.

"The late emperor once issued an edict that the lineage of the Princess Zhenguo can inherit the title."

The eyes of all the ministers present suddenly narrowed as they realized what Xie Lang was going to do.

Sure enough, the next moment Xie Lang continued, "Wei Qingming is my only son, and he should be made the crown prince of the Zhenguo Princess."

There was silence.

Since Xie Lang's resurrection, the shocks he has brought to them have become greater and greater.

Their hearts are too small to withstand so much stimulation.

Although Wei Qingming already knew about this, his heartbeat suddenly quickened at this moment.

The prince of the Princess Zhenguo is different from the princess.

This is truly a position that puts you at the center of power.

Although the Princess Zhenguo was equal to the princes, there was one difference: since she was a woman, there was no need to worry that she would seek power and usurp the throne.

Princes usually had to leave the capital to establish their own fiefdoms, but the Princess Zhenguo did not have to do that. She could be in the court or in her fiefdom. This was a right granted by the late emperor.

"Tian Ying, announce the decree."

Conferring Wei Qingming as the crown prince was the result of yesterday's discussion, and Wei Changche asked Tian Ying to read the imperial edict.

A eunuch came in carrying a tray with a prepared imperial edict on it. Tian Ying picked up the edict.

At this time, Xie Lang was already standing in front of Shen Tu He. Shen Tu He looked relatively natural, but his legs and feet trembled slightly.

Tian Ying also walked in front of Wei Qingming and spread out the imperial edict.

Wei Qingming also knelt down at this time.

"Fengtian Chengyun Emperor, the imperial edict said:

Princess Xinyang, the daughter of the Princess Zhenguo, is a pure and bright lady. She is the eldest son of the Princess Zhenguo and has a bright and virtuous character. She is wise and intelligent. She promotes filial piety and benevolence. She is a role model for everyone and can be made the crown prince of the Princess Zhenguo.

Announce it to the world and send envoys to hear it. "

Tian Ying's loud voice echoed in the hall. The eunuchs' voices were not always sharp and effeminate.

It's just a little softer than a normal man's voice, but generally speaking it's a male voice.

Wei Qingming bowed solemnly in the direction of the emperor and took the imperial edict: "I accept your order. May your majesty live forever and enjoy eternal happiness."

After Wei Qingming stood up, the faces of the court officials were all very interesting.

But because the emperor's edict had already been issued, Xie Lang had to keep an eye on it.

So he bowed respectfully to Wei Qingming, showing great respect, but it was unknown what he was thinking in his heart.

Xie Lang also noticed it, but didn't say anything.

To gain the respect and recognition of others, one cannot rely solely on status.

But it requires strength and means.

Just because she can gain the respect of all the officials doesn’t mean Wei Qingming can do the same.

Wei Qingming still has a long way to go.
