"As ordered!"

The Jinyiwei received the order. They were standing outside the Fengtian Hall and naturally heard the court's decision.

They were all Jiang Li's confidants and knew what to do at this time.

Chang Sheng was not falsely conveying the emperor's will.

At most it was just an overstepping of authority, but so what.

The person sitting in the Fengtian Hall is Chang Sheng’s nephew!

Not to mention that Chang Sheng exceeded his authority, even if Zhu Yunhuan asked Chang Sheng to be the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, it would only take a word for him to do so. Besides, even if Chang Sheng did not give the order, Jiang Lin would still have to give the order after the court session.

Jiang Li would have no objection to Chang Sheng's overstepping of authority in command this time.

After all, where there are people, there is the world of martial arts.

Jianghu is not about fighting and killing, but about human relationships.

"Put the guilty woman, Lu, on the prison cart, parade her through the streets, and then park her in front of the Duke of Kaiguo's mansion to await punishment!"

Chang Sheng continued to give orders.

The court did not say that Lu would be paraded through the streets as a warning to the public.

But, so what? They were already going to have their entire clan executed.

Even if Chang Sheng paraded Lu through the streets as a warning to the public, Zhu Yunhuan would at most fine her one year's salary or even turn a blind eye if he found out.

After all, it's just a small matter that needs to be dealt with.

"Yes."

The Jinyiwei received the order.

Chang Sheng looked at the struggling Lu and slapped him in the face, which made Lu calm down.

"Ms. Lu, do you know what the court's verdict on you is?" Chang Sheng asked, pinching Ms. Lu's chin.

There was fear in Lu's eyes, "What?"

Chang Sheng smiled, "The court has issued an order that you go to the mausoleums of my sister, brother-in-law, and eldest nephew and kowtow to them nine hundred and ninety-nine times. Then we will skin you alive, stuff you with straw, burn your body to ashes, and scatter them into the stinking ditch. Then we will grind your bones and scatter your ashes!

But don't worry, I won't scatter your ashes into the stinking ditch, because that would be too wasteful. I will mix it with mud and make a clay figurine kneeling, put your skin on it, and finally kneel on Zhongshan Mountain to atone for my sins for eternity! Take it away!"

After Chang Sheng finished speaking, he let go of Lu, waved his hand, and the Jinyiwei directly escorted Lu out of the East Palace.

"No! I am the Crown Princess, I am the Crown Princess, let me go, I am the Crown Princess!" Lu was frightened by what Chang Sheng said and struggled in fear.

Lu's actions attracted the attention of many palace people along the way.

Everyone lowered their heads and made way, fearing that they would see something they shouldn't see and get into trouble.

The blood in the palace hasn't dried yet.

Thousands of palace maids and eunuchs were slaughtered in the palace two days ago. If you smell it carefully now, you can still smell the blood.

"Go tell my eldest nephew that I am taking people to Zhongshan to pay homage to the spirits of the late crown prince, the late crown princess, and the emperor's eldest grandson. Tell him not to go and stay in the forbidden palace to prevent any changes."

Chang Sheng gave instructions to the eunuchs of the Eastern Palace.

To go to Zhongshan, one must have permission. Not everyone can go to Zhongshan to worship.

Zhu Yunhuan is now the crown prince, and he has the right to agree.

The reason why Zhu Yunhuan was not allowed to go was because the current situation had not yet been completely stabilized. If Zhu Yunhuan left the palace, some people would take the opportunity to release Zhu Yuanzhang, or stage a coup. Once successful, the Huaixi Group would not be able to escape the execution of all nine generations of their clan, and more than 100,000 people would be implicated.

Even though there is basically no success rate, nothing is absolute and the Huaixi Group cannot gamble at all.

Given Zhu Yuanzhang's temperament, once he gained power again, he would certainly destroy the Huaixi Group at all costs. With Zhu Yunhuan sitting in the palace and having soldiers under his command, everyone would have a backbone.

At this time, Zhu Yunhuan should not leave the palace.

"Yes, Duke." The eunuch obeyed the order.

Chang Sheng nodded, then strode out of the palace with his head held high.

Arriving at the palace gate, he got on the carriage of the Duke of Founding.

"Chang Yi, go buy all the paper money, firecrackers, white banners, etc. in the city right now."
