Shen Fei's aura was so powerful that Wu Zhao could barely lift his head.
She had never felt such immense pressure in her life.
Even when he ascended the throne and was attacked from both sides, he had never felt such pressure.
Shen Fei's words were like a thunderclap, shocking Wu Zhao's ears.
"Your Majesty, please be punished!“
Shen Fei shouted at Wu Zhao again.
Wu Zhao, who was panicking but feeling humiliated, shook his head.
"No…Shen Fei, you can't treat me like this. If you do this, you'll be letting down the previous emperor, letting down heaven and earth.“
Shen Fei waved the Emperor Striking Whip in his hand.
Dust flew into the air.
Once again, he said loudly," I am worthy of heaven and earth, worthy of the late emperor. Today, I will punish you on behalf of the late emperor. Your Majesty, please bow and receive your punishment!“
When he heard the word "bow".
An unprecedented sense of humiliation occupied Wu Zhao's heart.
The image in his mind suddenly appeared, which made Wu Zhao feel ashamed.
"No, Thief Shen, I won't!“
Shen Fei snorted coldly,"Since Your Majesty insists on not doing so, then this lowly official can only do it personally."“
Then, Shen Fei did not give Wu Zhao any chance to react. He wrapped a wisp of Connate Genuine Qi around Wu Zhao.
Then, Wu Zhao's entire body was suspended in the air.
Wu Zhao shouted desperately, but at this moment, all the officials in the hunting ground had left. The Thousand Machine Battalion had all died in battle. No one in the hunting ground could hear her cry for help.
Then, Shen Fei took out a rope and tied the Great Zhou Empress to a big tree branch.
"Thief Shen, if you dare to hit me, you will be punished by the heavens!“
Wu Zhao, who was tied to a branch, was completely flustered.
She never dreamed that she would suffer such a humiliating punishment.
At this moment, she really wished she could knock her head against the wall, but Shen Fei did not give her such a chance.
While Wu Zhao was still shouting desperately, Shen Fei suddenly whipped Wu Zhao's butt.
"Ah!“
A scream resounded through the surroundings.
Even the emotionless shadow guards could not help but turn their heads at this moment.
Without a doubt, this scene was not something they were qualified to see.
The whip was so powerful that Wu Zhao started sobbing.
On the other hand, Shen Fei did not feel guilty at all. Instead, he said with a fierce gaze,
"This lowly subject's first lash is to punish the Emperor for listening to slanderous words and favoring the Confucian scholars from Wenchang Academy who are disrupting the country's foundation.”
"The world calls me Shen Fei, the greatest traitor of the court. But Your Majesty should know that I have never been disrespectful to the late Emperor or Your Majesty. In the thirteenth year of the late Emperor's reign, I led three thousand cavalry to recapture the sixteen cities of Youzhou from the Tang.”
"In the 14th year of the previous Emperor's reign, the Darkhan Dynasty sent an envoy to our Great Zhou to request for a marriage alliance. Back then, the Han King requested for a marriage alliance with you, Your Majesty.”
" In the fifteenth year of the previous emperor's reign, he suddenly fell ill. Undercurrents surged in the royal court, and the external forces were in chaos. It was also me who used the power of wind and thunder to intimidate the royal court, causing the royal court to not dare to cause trouble. I alone and with my sword, I shook the northern border and captured the leader of the Dayuan Empire, causing the external forces to be wary and stabilizing the situation.”
"Moreover, in the sixteenth year of the former emperor's reign, the Third Prince stirred up trouble and colluded with the rebels in the East Camp to usurp the throne. It was this subject who discovered it in time and killed him in the cradle.”
"Your Majesty, do you think that the reason why the former emperor favored and trusted me was just because I knew how to bootlick? The former emperor's wisdom was unprecedented. The situation that His Majesty did not see, the former emperor had already seen.”
"After the death of the previous emperor, I was given the responsibility of serving as a minister and acting as regent of the Great Zhou Dynasty. My mission was arduous, and my power was monstrous. As a result, Your Majesty became wary of me and gradually alienated me.”
"However, Your Majesty used such a method to eliminate me. In the name of returning peace to the Great Zhou, will the Great Zhou really be at peace once I die?”
Shen Fei sneered again and shook his head,
"I can guess that with my death today, Your Majesty will definitely put Wenchang Academy in an important position and implement the strategy of governing the country with Confucianism. However, has Your Majesty ever thought that if you blindly govern the country with Confucianism and lack the rule of law, will the Great Zhou really prosper and glorify?”
"I don't expect Your Majesty to understand my painstaking efforts, but Your Majesty is unable to see my loyalty to the Great Zhou royal family. This makes me sad to death.”
At this point, Shen Fei's eyes were filled with tears, and his left hand that was holding the Emperor Striking Whip trembled violently.
Wu Zhao, who was sobbing, burst into even more tears.
For the first time, she wholeheartedly felt that she had made a stupid decision on this matter.
At this moment, Shen Fei muttered and sighed,
"Indeed, this subject does not have the right to lash Your Majesty. After all, this subject is not the previous emperor, but what is the reason for this subject to commit such a heinous crime today? What is the purpose of this subject taking out this Emperor Striking Whip today?”
"I just want to tell Your Majesty that in this world, if there is still one person who is truly for Your Majesty and sincerely hopes that Your Majesty will inherit the will of the previous emperor and unify the world, that person is me!”
At this point, Shen Fei's emotions broke down. He threw away the Emperor Striking Whip in his hand and suddenly started crying.
As she cried, she questioned Wu Zhao,"
"Your Majesty, at this moment, do you still think that I did something wrong?”
"Do you still think that you shouldn't be beaten?”
