After rebirth, I married the emperor's uncle and overthrew my ex-husband's kingdom

The prince raised his hand, and the guards began a new round of massacre.

"what!!!"

Screams were heard along with sounds of fear and swords piercing flesh; everything was like purgatory in broad daylight!

"Your Majesty, what have the people done to us? What have the people done to us?!"

Xu Lingyun was furious as he watched the river of blood beneath his feet quickly spread outward. He could only watch helplessly.

The prince stood aside with his hands behind his back, listening to the screams, and actually felt that the sounds were more beautiful than the music played by the pianists.

Those in power control life and death, while those without power can only wait for death. This is the voice of power!

"stop!!"

Bai Youyou saw the one-sided massacre in front of her, and her eyes were bloodshot like Xu Lingyun.

The prince turned and looked at her, with a hint of coldness in his handsome eyes, "Fourth Miss Bai, this is not the place for you to come, you should go back quickly."

"Prince, these are the people of the Great Zhou, why are you slaughtering them?"

The prince found Bai Youyou's questioning very funny, but he still looked helpless.

"The Queen Mother died because of these refugees. My father was furious. I was just following orders."

"There are only a few hundred people going to the Big Buddha Temple. What does it have to do with these thousands of people?"

Bai Youyou stared at him coldly, "The emperor is furious, and the prince is following orders. Can they kill innocent people without even finding out the truth?!"

The prince still looked helpless, "Miss Bai Si, I heard that you were also attacked by refugees today. These refugees dared to claim that they wanted to become bandits. If we don't get rid of them today, I'm afraid they will really occupy the mountains and become kings in the future."

"It's just a casual remark, how can you take it seriously?" Bai Youyou said sternly, "Humph, I think you are guilty, so you are using the excuse of His Majesty's anger to kill people and silence them!"

Bai Youyou's words startled the prince, and his sharp eyes shot towards her, "Bai Youyou, what do you mean by that!"

"Humph, why do refugees go to the Big Buddha Temple? Doesn't the prince know?"

Bai Youyou's eyes were full of coldness.

If a person who regards human lives as ants were allowed to sit on the throne, all people in the world would suffer!

"How would I know that the refugees went to the Big Buddha Temple? Fourth Miss Bai asked the wrong person."

The prince stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes concealed and his tone indifferent.

Looking at the refugees who were almost being slaughtered, a smug smile appeared at the corners of his lips.

These refugees have all been silenced, so what can they do even if they guessed that he was the one who did it?

This was an order from the emperor. Even if the people have grievances in their hearts, they blame the emperor. Maybe he could use this matter to make a big fuss in the future!

Bai Youyou looked at the almost extinct people in the refugee camp, and a feeling of powerlessness came over her.

She came alone today, and even if she brought others with her, they would still be powerless.

Once the hat of rebellion is put on, the entire family of the Duke of Zhenguo will be killed!

She bit her cheeks and turned around, refusing to look at the tragic scenes with her bloodshot eyes.

"Prince, God is watching what you do. It's not that I won't give you the retribution, it's just that the time has not come yet!"

"If praying to gods and Buddhas is useful, how can man conquer nature?"

Bai Youyou's words made the prince's face suddenly cold. He glanced at Bai Youyou with contempt, "I don't know when I will get my revenge, but I know when the Zhenguo Mansion will get its revenge!"

Bai Youyou clenched her hands tightly, her sharp nails digging into the flesh of her palms. The pain allowed her to maintain her last bit of sanity.

Today, Bai Youyou and the Crown Prince had a complete falling out. She was not polite and directly retorted, "It is still unknown who will win. It is too early for Your Highness to be happy!"

The prince curled his lips and sneered, "Then we'll wait and see!"

In the past, he had thought of winning over the people from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion to fight against the General's Mansion, but now the entire General's Mansion has been executed, and with Bai Yaoyao's innate ability to predict the future, what does he have to fear?

If the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion dares to go against him, he will destroy it!

The air was filled with a disgusting smell of blood. Only after the prince and other refugees were killed did they release Xu Lingyun and all the yamen runners of Jingzhao Prefecture.

"Master Xu, I have to go back to the palace to report. I'll have to trouble you to handle the rest of the matter."

After saying this, he left in a mighty procession with a thousand imperial guards.

Xu Lingyun's body went limp and he fell heavily into a pool of blood.

The sticky feeling in his hands and the fishy smell in his nose made him tremble all over.

"Ugh! Ugh!"

He lowered his head and kept retching.

I didn't eat anything at noon, and now all I vomited out was bitter yellow water.

"Uncle Xu."

Bai Youyou's face was pale without a trace of blood. She suppressed the churning in her stomach and pulled out a handkerchief and handed it to him.

Xu Lingyun raised his head, tears welling up in his eyes.

Bai Youyou looked at his helpless and confused eyes and sighed heavily, "Heaven and earth are not benevolent and treat all things as straw dogs. Saints are not benevolent and treat the people as straw dogs."

"Uncle Xu," Bai Youyou bent down to help him up, "What I said that day was not a joke."

Xu Lingyun didn't need to think much, and her words that day automatically emerged in his mind.

"Abandon the father and keep the son, and use the emperor to control the princes."

"Ah."

Bai Youyou responded softly, "Before, I just wanted to protect the entire Zhenguo Mansion, but now--"

She looked at the corpses lying on the ground with their eyes wide open. Her expression was resolute. "I want to find a way out for the people of this world!"

Xu Lingyun stared at her for a long time, and then he said in a hoarse voice: "You have great ambitions, and Uncle Xu is willing to be your vanguard. From now on, as long as you give an order, Uncle Xu will go through fire and water without hesitation!"

His voice was sonorous and powerful, and the thunder and lightning in his eyes receded, and the light gathered again.

Bai Youyou pulled him up from the ground, "God is watching what we do. I don't believe there is no such thing as retribution in this world."

Xu Lingyun roared for too long, and his throat felt like it was cut by a blade.

His eyes were red as he looked at the corpses scattered all over the ground, his voice hoarse, "Water can carry a boat but can also capsize it. They will definitely pay the price for what they have done!"

The last ray of sunset disappeared at the end of the horizon, leaving only a blood-red color between heaven and earth.

When the old lady heard Bai Youyou come back to report about the refugee camp, she stared in shock.

"How dare he kill thousands of refugees?!"

Bai Youyou also wanted to know how the emperor dared to act so recklessly. Did he really think that the Lu family's hegemony would be forever and that no one in the world could do anything to them?

"Grandmother, today the Crown Prince and I have completely fallen out, and we will no longer be able to maintain superficial peace."

The old lady looked cold and said, "If we can't maintain it, then don't maintain it. Anyway, he is still just a prince and can't decide the life or death of our Zhenguo Mansion!"

On the way back home, Bai Youyou kept thinking about what to do next.

"Grandmother, since the Emperor already suspects that we are colluding with the Third Prince, why don't we just go with the flow?"

The old lady raised her drooping eyelashes suddenly, "You mean..."
