He was dead!
The thirty-two courtiers who had reported their illness were all dead and beheaded!
Who were these thirty-two black-armored guards?
All of them were Grandmaster martial artists, and each of them carried a brutal murderous aura. Their cold gazes made many of the courtiers look terrified!
"Who are you? How dare you kill an official of the Great Qin Empire? Are you trying to rebel?”
Marquis Wenzong was furious!
Thirty-two courtiers, all of whom were his direct descendants, had all been beheaded.
Although he knew that these thirty-two people were definitely the people of Empress Ying Yue, he still chose to attack them directly. After all, these people weren't part of the organization!
……
"It's not us who want to rebel, it's them!”
It was Cao Mo's voice.
He was also dressed in black armor. He slowly stepped into the hall, silent like a ghost.
……
"Hidden Fog Sect!"
"You're a survivor of the Hidden Fog Sect!"
"Very good! You escaped death, and now you dare to kill the officials of the Great Qin Empire. Men, take them down!”
Marquis Wu Zong shouted angrily!
However, the guards of Xianyang Palace did not seem to hear him. No one moved!
"Take us down?"
Cao Mo smiled coldly." We factory guards act with special permission from the imperial power. Who dares to touch us!”
After Cao Mo finished speaking, she completely ignored the two marquises and walked to the center of the hall. After kneeling and kowtowing, she said,"This subject, Cao Mo greets Your Majesty and the Cloud King. Now, all thirty-two people have been brought here. Your Majesty, the Cloud King, please accept them!”
Check and accept!
Cao Mo's cold and heartless voice caused the expressions of all the officials present to change.
The lives of thirty-two courtiers were like thirty-two goods in Cao Mo's mouth!
……
"The factory guards act with special permission from the imperial power?"
Marquis Wenzong repeated these words, his heart shaking!
After lying low for so long, the Cloud King and the empress finally showed their fangs.
……
"Not bad!"
Yun Xi nodded lightly.
……
"Dare I ask, King Yun, are the officials of the Great Qin not allowed to report their illness? If you report illness, you must die!"
"That's right!"
"Could it be that a special permission from the imperial power can kill the innocent?”
Facing the calm Yun Xi, the two marquises stood on the same side!
"Of course you don't have to die if you report illness!"
"Cao Mo, tell them why these thirty-two people died!”
Yun Xi looked at Wu Zong and Hou Wen and said indifferently.
"Yes, sir!"
Cao Mo grinned hideously." Inspector Zhao of the Patrol Division accepted 1.5 million silver coins as a bribe. He turned right into wrong and helped the former chief justice escape his punishment. He should be executed!"”
"Zhan Shi Manor's Deputy Zhan Shi Li sold the position of Zhan Shi Manor's Deputy Zhan Shi for 1 million silver. Buying and selling an official position, he shall be executed!”
“……”
"All the evidence will be placed in my Factory Guard Office. If necessary, you can submit it to the court!”
……
Cao Mo took out a book. The deeds of the 32 officials who had been beheaded were all recorded in it.
With every word he said, Marquis Wenzong and Marquis Wu Zong's expressions changed!
In the end, the two martial arts grandmasters were already panting and unable to speak.
After Cao Mo finished speaking, she stood there and looked at the officials with a faint smile.
The faces of every official that was targeted by Cao Mo turned slightly pale!
"Does anyone have any objections?"
Yun Xi smiled and said," No matter who has an opinion, you can say it!”
None of the officials present spoke!
Thoughts?
Which of Cao Mo's crimes wasn't a capital crime?
Now that he had taken action, he would be taking the lives of thirty-two officials. Who would dare to object?
What if they dug up dirt on him?
"Remember this!"
"This King doesn't care which of the Hundred Schools of Philosophy you belong to. You receive Great Qin's salary and live on Great Qin's land!”
"I'm not asking you to work hard, but don't suck the blood of Great Qin!”
"Great Qin can let you enjoy glory and wealth, but it can also take your lives!”
"Anyone else who wants to report illness, step forward together!”
Yun Xi swept her gaze across the court officials present, causing all of them to take a step back.
Cao Mo took out another book and grinned at the officials as if she was waiting for someone to stand up for her.
Sick?
The previous thirty-two people were a lesson for him!
What was the booklet in Cao Mo's hand?
Could it be that there were crimes against them?
Qianli was an official only for money. Which of them didn't have some dirt?
Normally, no one would investigate, so naturally, nothing would happen. If he was exposed in this situation, he would definitely die.
Marquis Wuzong and Marquis Wenzong's faces turned green and red.
First was Lu Si!
And now, there were thirty-two officials!
After today, all the civil and military officials in the court would have to think twice before going against the empress.
Killing people to establish their might!
The Cloud King and the empress wanted to use blood to stabilize the royal court!
"I have another matter to report!"
Cao Mo said calmly while the officials were still trembling in fear.
"Speak!"
Ying Yue slightly nodded and said.
"When the factory guards were investigating the Thirty-Two Sins, they intercepted a batch of voice transmission jade walls!”
Cao Mo clapped her hands as she spoke. Another black-armored guard walked in with a plate.
There was a large number of voice-transmitting jade walls on the plate!
Seeing these voice transmission jade walls, Marquis Wenzong and Marquis Wu Zong's faces turned pale!
"Our Hidden Fog Sect has some means to extract the contents of the previous conversation from the voice transmission jade wall!”
As Cao Mo spoke, her cold eyes looked towards Marquis Wu Zong and Marquis Wen Zong.
He could even extract the content of the conversation?
Marquis Wu Zong and Marquis Wen Zong panicked.
Cao Mo!
Hidden Fog Sect's remnant!
They were best at intelligence gathering and assassination!
The 32 officials of Great Qin had all been killed without any news.
The change of guards in Xianyang Palace was done so flawlessly. It was probably their doing.
To say that they really had such a secret technique, that was also very normal!
"Oh? What's inside?"
Yun Xi spoke again.
"From this information, we found out that the reason why the thirty-two courtiers reported their illness was because someone was secretly instigating them!”
Cao Mo said coldly.
"Who is it?"
"Marquis Wen Zong!"
Cao Mo's words were shocking, causing sweat to roll down the foreheads of all the officials present!
The thirty-two officials were just a cover!
The Cloud King's true target was Marquis Wenzong!
