I am a commoner, but I will lead the empress to unify the world

"Captain... Captain, for the sake of our Lord's past as a member of the same faction as yours, please spare the children."

A woman looked at Shen Changgong pitifully and said,

"I have never done anything bad, and neither have my children. They are still young and have not committed any crime. Please forgive them, please, they are all innocent."

She was holding a baby in her arms, looking extremely pitiful.

Shen Changgong looked at them, walked forward slowly, bent down, looked at an eight-year-old boy, smiled slightly, and asked,

"Do you know who I am?"

The little boy nodded and said timidly,

"I know, you are Grand Commandant Shen Changgong."

As soon as he said this, the women present felt a buzz in their heads and thought to themselves that it was all over!

"Then do you know who killed your whole family?"

"I know, it's... it's you."

"So nice."

Shen Changgong smiled even brighter.

Then he turned around and walked outside.

The cold voice sounded like a ghost coming to take one's life.

"Kill them all."

The shadow guard beside him immediately rushed forward and drew his sword to strike without hesitation.

Perhaps many people would not understand why a normal person would attack helpless children.

But Shen Changgong is not a normal person.

He is a cold-blooded killer. For him, killing is as easy as drinking water and eating. He does not have any psychological burden.

Moreover, he will not leave any danger or hidden dangers for himself.

Just look at Gongsun Wan'er and Tu Que Ling and you will know!

When their two families were destroyed, Prince Gong and Prince Rong's entire families were exterminated. The entire family was executed, including adults, children, maids and servants. Even earthworms had to be chopped vertically.

But Gongsun Wan'er and Tu Queling still escaped.

After the two women came back, they harbored deep hatred for the powerful. One of them whispered in the empress's ear in the palace, and the other risked her life to enter the enemy's house just to collect evidence.

It can be said that the downfall of these two most powerful people is directly related to the two women.

This is a lesson learned from the past where the roots are not removed.

How could Shen Changgong make such a mistake?

Who knows what kind of disaster will be brought to him many years later by those who escaped by chance, with endless murderous intentions.

Even if he was confident that he could handle all the assassinations, frame-ups, and military attacks, what about his family? His family didn't have the same abilities as him.

Besides, Prince Rong and Prince Gong joined forces to deal with him tonight. If he lost power, his family would be scattered all over the ground. The other party would not show mercy to him.

Prince Gong's family resisted fiercely, and only two of his sons were captured, while almost all the others were hacked to death.

The servants and maids who were hiding in the corners were also found and taken to the security army camp.

Then, Shen Changgong rushed to other duke's and marquis' mansions without stopping. After all, those dozen powerful families were the top priority, and the other officials were just small fry, so they could be left to the experienced Zhang Yide and others.

It took most of the night, and all the families of the powerful and wealthy were captured and taken to the prison.

The experienced jailers in the government dungeon were seconded there to torture the powerful officials and force them to reveal evidence that they were planning a rebellion.

Shen Changgong personally went to get the confessions and brought the list of "stolen goods" compiled and counted by the security forces. He took these evidences and took Gongsun Wan'er back to the palace.

Tu Queling went to interrogate Prince Gong in person.

Even though Prince Gong had confessed and only asked for a quick death, Tu Queling still did not let him go and tortured him in various ways.

Shen Changgong was not interested in watching these.

When we arrived at the palace, it was already daybreak.

The officials who just left the palace and went home last night must have had a sleepless night and couldn't sleep at all.

And now, it was daybreak, and it was time for them to attend the morning court.

Shen Changgong returned to his bedroom, planning to take a shower and change his clothes.

However, just as he was lying in the warm water of the bathtub, enjoying a moment of peace, his door was suddenly opened.

Shen Changgong frowned suddenly. He had warned the guards and palace maids that no one was allowed to enter his room without prior notification. He suffered a great loss the last time Gongsun Wan'er came in. How could someone still not learn their lesson this time?

Of course, he didn't react too much. If the enemy came in, all the people protecting him would be killed.

Through the curtain, he saw a figure in red walking towards him.

"Your Majesty? Why are you here?"

Shen Changgong frowned in confusion and looked at Yan Fuyao in doubt.

Yan Fuyao stretched, and a hint of laziness appeared on his usually dignified and domineering face.

"Why? Can't I come? This is my harem, you are my beloved concubine, am I not allowed to come here?"

Yan Fuyao sat on the small stool next to Shen Changgong that was used to get into the bathtub. She placed her right arm on the bathtub and her chin on her right arm, looking at Shen Changgong with a smile.

"My beloved? Who is your beloved?"

Shen Changgong sneered and said slowly,

"You're smiling like a pervert right now, and it reminds me of bad things."

"Don't think about it."

Yan Fuyao smiled slightly and said,

"I slept very well last night. It was like a huge stone weighing on my heart was finally lifted off. I felt more relaxed than ever before.

I know that Uncle Nan Wang and you are in charge of the capital, and that you have been busy helping me clear obstacles and working hard for me. I feel at ease.

Then I slept soundly."

Shen Changgong smiled leisurely, looked at the empress with a smile, and said,

"Are you confessing your feelings to me?"

"What does confession mean?"

"It's just expressing love."

"Tsk, you're dreaming."

Yan Fuyao stretched out her hand and kicked up a splash of water, which splashed onto Shen Changgong's face, and she smiled sweetly.

It can be seen that the empress is in a good mood today.

"My husband has worked hard today. He has been busy all day and all night without sleep. I plan to serve you personally as a reward."

After saying this, the empress rolled up her sleeves.

Shen Changgong was startled when he heard this and said,

"A reward? In broad daylight? That's fine."

The empress gave him a fierce look, tapped Shen Changgong's forehead with her finger, and said,

"What are you capable of? You've only been thinking of crooked things all day long. If you really want to, I'll give Wan'er to you first.

As for me, please wait a little longer."

After saying that, the empress stood up and came behind Shen Changgong. She placed her soft and delicate hands on his shoulders and gently massaged his sore shoulders.

Oh, this is the reward.

But speaking of it, it was quite interesting when the great Queen of Yan came to give him a massage and serve him a bath.

Shen Changgong closed his eyes and enjoyed it, and asked,

"You are the great emperor, and you can actually give massages?"
