"That day in the East Market, I saw him with my own eyes. His face and figure are deeply imprinted in my mind. There is no way I could have mistaken him!"

"At that time, I swore an oath to bring this lunatic to justice."

"I never thought that this thief would fall into the trap today. It really is like the vast net of heaven, which can catch anything!"

"Such traitors dared to offend Your Majesty's majesty. Their crimes are unforgivable and they should be punished with the most severe penalties to serve as a warning to others!"

After saying that, he glared at Watanabe Sora fiercely.

When the envoys from other countries witnessed this scene, they all looked at each other in amazement.

Some envoys whispered to each other, "These Japanese people must be so bold as to stir up trouble in the Tang Dynasty and do such a shocking thing."

Some envoys raised their lips slightly, a glint of gloating in their eyes: "Hehe, now we're going to have some fun. I'm afraid Japan will be reduced to ashes in the wrath of the Tang Dynasty this time, and suffer the consequences of its own actions."

At this time, Matsushita Arita was already stunned, with a blank look in his eyes.

His mind was in a mess and he couldn't figure out why things took a turn for the worse in such a short time.

Everything was going smoothly just now, and His Majesty was quite kind to me. How could the situation change so suddenly in the blink of an eye, and His Majesty was personally tracking down the murderer?

Moreover, the murderer's spearhead was inexplicably directed at his own side.

Wasn’t it Watanabe Sora who was looking for the murderer just now?

He is now filled with regret.

His legs were weak and he could hardly stand, but he still had a glimmer of hope in his heart and wanted to plead with His Majesty.

"Your Majesty..."

But just as he uttered a word with difficulty, Li Chengqian's eyes shot straight at him, staring at him intently, forcing him to swallow back the rest of his words.

Li Chengqian didn't even bother to look at him. With a stern expression, he ordered Zhang Xianhuai, "Xianhuai, drag this man away and cut off his tongue. Arrest all the Japanese in Chang'an tonight. Don't let any of them go."

"How can I allow others to trample on my great Tang Dynasty at will? I will not allow anyone to threaten my safety."

"Anyone who offends the majesty of the Tang Dynasty will pay a heavy price."

Every word in these words was as precious as pearls, and each word was full of the majesty of the emperor, which made everyone present silent.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Zhang Xianhuai accepted the order and raised his hand slightly.

A group of well-trained Jinyiwei quickly poured out from both sides of the hall.

They moved in unison, took a few steps forward and lifted up Matsushita Arita, Watanabe Sora and other Japanese people.

Matsushita Arita struggled desperately, trying to break free from the Jinyiwei's restraints.

His weak strength was like an ant trying to shake a tree in front of the Jinyiwei.

Matsushita Arita could only utter a few weak cries in despair: "Your Majesty, spare me, Your Majesty, spare me..."

The voice echoed in the silent hall, sounding particularly miserable, but failed to arouse anyone's sympathy.

As the Jinyiwei dragged the Japanese out of the hall, the two Jinyiwei who were left behind quickly took out a rag, wiped the bloodstains on the ground clean, and then left quietly.

The hall fell into deathly silence in an instant.

Li Chengqian slowly glanced at the crowd, and a faint smile returned to his face.

The smile didn't reach his eyes, making it hard to tell what he was really thinking.

"Everyone, there's no need to be so nervous. Today is the New Year's Day celebration, and it should be a day of joy and peace."

"I believe that the envoys from all countries have seen everything Japan has done, and they see it clearly."

As he spoke, he raised his hands slightly and made a soothing gesture.

"I hope that envoys from all other countries will learn from this and avoid repeating Japan's mistakes."

"Befriend the Tang Dynasty and share the blessings of a peaceful and prosperous era"

"To be an enemy of the Tang Dynasty will surely lead to eternal damnation."

"I hope you will take care of yourself."

Upon hearing this, the envoys from various countries stood up in fear and trepidation and saluted Li Chengqian to express their loyalty.
