His wrinkled old face was filled with anxiety.
Just as he had said, the Wuming Dynasty, which had been passed down for more than 200 years, had hundreds of thousands of miles of mountains and rivers and a population of ten billion.
There were millions of children born in the dynasty every day.
In fact, this number could even reach two million.
The Martial Emperor ordered the killing of all children born on the day of the Sky Demon. It was bound to shake the entire Wuming Dynasty and affect the billions of living beings in the world.
Perhaps, even the Wuming Dynasty's rule over this world might be shaken.
The white-haired minister's words also startled the other officials.
When these officials were awakened, they quickly knelt down and shouted,"
"Your Majesty, please retract the decree. The consequences of such a large-scale massacre are too serious. Even our Wu Ming Dynasty is finding it difficult to bear.”
"Your Majesty, if we only kill the children of the commoners, the harm of this Demon Slaying Token is not too great. With the powerful strength of our Wuming Dynasty, we can suppress all those who are dissatisfied.”
"However, among those aristocratic families, martial sects, and even officials in various places, there are actually some people whose children were born on the day of the Heavenly Demon. Are the children of these people going to be killed as well?”
"If the children of these people are killed equally, those people will definitely hold a grudge. At that time, the entire Wuming Dynasty will be unstable.”
"Your Majesty, please reconsider."
The Minister of Revenue among the civil and military officials immediately saw through the Demon Slaying Token that the rule of the Wuming Dynasty was truly shaken.
That was, the children of some people from the great clans, martial sects, and officials from all over the world were born on the day of the Heavenly Demon.
If the children of these people were killed according to the Martial Emperor's order, the consequences would be too serious.
It was so serious that it threatened the Wuming Dynasty's control over the world.
In fact, there might even be some rebellions happening in various parts of the Wuming Dynasty.
If Force Emperor slightly modified the decree to only kill the children of the poor, it would not be a big problem.
"Your Majesty, please retract the decree!"
"Your Majesty, please retract the decree!"
"Your Majesty, please retract the decree!"
All of a sudden, the officials shouted in unison, and the entire throne room echoed with their voices.
The voice that begged the Martial Emperor to retract the decree even reached the outside of the throne room.
Even the imperial guards, eunuchs, and maids who were busy in the rear palace heard the voice.
However, although these guards, eunuchs, and palace maids were all curious about what had happened in the throne room that made the civil and military officials shout in unison and beg the Martial Emperor to withdraw the edict, they were still curious.
However, no one dared to take a step closer to the throne room.
After all, the rules in the palace were strict. Any mistake would result in death.
If he wanted to live in the palace for a few more years, the most important thing was to control his curiosity.
。。。。。
Looking at these agitated civil and military officials who begged him to withdraw the imperial edict, the Martial Emperor who was sitting on the dragon throne slowly shook his head.
Then, Force Emperor said softly,"
"This decree to kill all children born on the day of the Sky Demon does not come from me, a Martial Emperor, but from the heavens.”
"Everyone, hurry up and follow the will of the heavens.”
After saying these two sentences, the Martial Emperor who was sitting on the dragon throne stood up, ignoring the reactions of the civil and military officials.
He walked straight out of the throne room.
The civil and military officials, who were originally agitated and pleading for the Martial Emperor to withdraw his edict, were stunned after hearing the Martial Emperor's words.
"This…"
All of the officials had their mouths wide open, but no one could say a word.
He could not even say a word.
It was as if there was a pair of invisible hands in this throne room that had grabbed their throats fiercely.
Even if they still had thousands of words to say, at this moment, they could only swallow them back into their stomachs unwillingly.
Even the white-haired old man, the chief minister of the cabinet who was known as the head of the civil servants, was shocked.
At this moment, he was just like the other officials. His mouth was wide open, unable to speak.
The reason why all the officials had turned into this state was because the Martial Emperor had left the throne room.
The two sentences that came out of his mouth.
Killing all the children born on the day of the Sky Demon was not the decree of the Martial Emperor, but the decree of the heavens!
Everyone knew that emperors and monarchs were the rulers of the world.
However, emperors and monarchs were also known as the Son of Heaven.
