Helpless, Xiang Yu could only follow Li Er, Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Gong and the others into the palace.
Wherever they went, whether it was the imperial guards or the eunuchs, they all trembled and prostrated themselves on the ground, afraid that they would provoke the Heavenly Policy Army.
Every time they entered a palace gate, the generals of the Heavenly Policy Army would pause for a moment and then read out one name after another.
The imperial guards, eunuchs, and palace maids all cried and begged, but they were met with the sharp weapons of the Heavenly Policy Army.
It could be said that wherever the Heavenly Policy Army went, there would be a massacre at every palace gate.
Many people believed that a general's achievements would make a thousand bones wither. Then how many bones would be piled up under the throne of an emperor who had a coup?
"Doesn't it feel a little cruel?" Qin Qiong had unknowingly arrived in front of Xiang Yu and asked.
"Did those eunuchs from Fenghua Sect see that? They are the Crown Prince's men. Every time we Heavenly Policy soldiers come to the palace, they will deliberately make things difficult for us. If we are not careful, we will be framed by them.”
"There was once a brother who was slandered by them because one of the locks fell off. His appearance was untidy and he humiliated the court. He was beaten forty times with a solid stick and finally died.”
…………
Hearing Qin Qiong's explanation, only then did Xiang Yu know that this Imperial Palace actually hid so much filth.
Because these people were close to the Son of Heaven, they were arrogant and did whatever they wanted. It was a pity that they had encountered the Heavenly Policy Army, who would seek revenge for the smallest grievance. They had not forgotten the scores from the past.
Li Shiming's decision was to comfort the Heaven's Policy Army and also to eliminate all the unstable factors.
Of course, the Heavenly Policy Army's massacre was not completely irrational. Those palace servants who were decent and cautious had their lives saved.
Li Shi Min knew that Li Yuan must be in the Hall of Diligent Government, anxiously waiting for him.
However, he didn't directly go to see the tiger that had lost its teeth. Instead, he led a group of bloodthirsty Heavenly Policy Army soldiers and directly charged into the harem.
It could be said that the concubines in Li Yuan's harem were Li Shimin's mortal enemies.
All these years, Li Yuan had reprimanded and scolded him because these women had instigated, fabricated, and framed him.
They had accepted bribes from the Crown Prince and King Qi, colluding with them to kill Li Shimin. They were extremely vicious, so they naturally wouldn't let them go this time.
"Reporting, Your Highness the King of Qin, Noble Consort Zhang's bedroom is in front.”A young eunuch hurriedly ran over to claim credit.
"Yes, Zhang Liang, go ahead. You should know what to do, right?”Li Shi Min ordered Zhang Liang, who was ready to make a move.
"Please put it down, King Qin. I will not let you down. I will bring all the evil women who have colluded with the Crown Prince to justice.”Zhang Liang was overjoyed. It was finally his turn to show off.
Then, he brought his troops and hurriedly entered Noble Consort Zhang's bedroom.
Suddenly, a terrified scream rang out from inside."What are you doing? This is the Imperial Concubine's bedchamber…Ah…"
Miserable screams rang out from the bedroom.
Immediately after, Imperial Concubine Yin's palace was also slaughtered.
"Do you know why Du Ruhui lost a finger?”Qin Qiong asked Xiang Yu.
"A few years ago, Old Du rode past Noble Consort Yin's father's mansion. That Ah Shu Yin relied on the power of that b * tch Yin to beat Old Du up and even had one of his fingers chopped off.”
"And tell Old Du to pass a message to the Heavenly Policy Manor. From now on, the people of the Heavenly Policy Manor must dismount when passing by his mansion to show their respect.”
"After that, those people turned black and white upside down and confused right and wrong. His Majesty listened to the rumors and not only did he not punish the Yin family, he even called the King of Qin over and scolded him, saying that he indulged his subordinates and even dared to bully the royal family.”
"Now do you know why the King of Qin sent Du Xiang to Noble Consort Yin's chambers? That was to give him a chance to avenge his father.”
After Xiang Yu heard this, she remained silent.
A pitiful person must have something hateful about them. These imperial consorts had bent the law for personal gain, indulged their loved ones, and bullied men and women…How could they have thought that retribution would come so quickly?
