dead.

Then their discussion just now would be meaningless.

There is no need to think about conviction, and there is no need to worry about being implicated too much. It seems that a heavy burden has been lifted off.

Yes, death is the simplest and best outcome.

He's dead and everyone is fine.

"Since the thief has been put to death, let's investigate the accomplices responsible for tonight's thief. The guilty will be punished, and the meritorious will be rewarded." The queen said, looking at the courtiers, "As for rewards and punishments, there are laws. Please discuss them according to your responsibilities."

The courtiers responded in unison.

The sky gradually brightened, and the night that shrouded the imperial city faded away. Last night's artillery fire, dead bodies, blood, grief, and terror were displayed one by one between heaven and earth.

In fact, the capital had already been awakened. First, there was the confrontation between the garrison running on the street in the middle of the night and the city defense, and then there were the two cannon shots in front of the imperial city, which shook half of the capital.

Even though she was hiding in the cellar, Li Mao's wife still screamed and hugged the children tightly in her arms.

At the same time, other people shouted that the earth was shaking, the earth was shaking, and the lights in half of the city were lit up, but those who rushed onto the street were quickly blocked back.

The streets were filled with garrison troops.

"It's not an earthquake. Please stay home and don't go out."

The stunned people looked at the gleaming armor and weapons and dared not say anything more. However, as people in the capital, they had keener perceptions than people in other places, and they probably guessed what was going on.

The sound of horse hooves outside the door became more and more loud, and as the door was knocked open, the servants in the yard were not as panicked as expected. They were all neatly dressed. Although they were trembling, they were not panicked.

The garrison soldiers were stunned.

"Sure enough, they are worthy of being part of the Prime Minister's family. They are a bit more generous than other families." One of the garrison soldiers couldn't help but say.

However, if you don't act as a good husband and insist on being a thief who murders the monarch, you are really doing your own evil.

The leading military general Shula unfolded the imperial edict in his hand.

"...Chen Shao has been executed for his rebellion, and his family has been confiscated..."

The red and green drapes in the backyard have long been taken down, the door of the house is wide open, and Mrs. Chen is sitting inside in a formal dress.

A servant girl rushed in hurriedly.

"Madam, madam..." They staggered on their feet, their voices choked with sobs, and they knelt down as they stepped on the corridor.

Seeing this, Mrs. Chen knew it. She stood up and walked towards the white silk hanging that had already been hung without hesitation.

"Madam..." the servants cried and rushed to hug her legs.

"What are you doing?" Mrs. Chen raised her eyebrows and yelled, "Can't you even save the last bit of face? These garrison troops all know that if someone like us commits an offense, the women will hang themselves. If

Without permission, they will break in soon. Are you willing to watch me be confiscated as a slave in a prostitute camp?"

For those who have committed crimes, it is a great mercy for women to have the opportunity to commit suicide with dignity.

People live a busy life for the sake of wealth and honor in life, and also for the dignity and honor when they die.

Being able to die with dignity is also a blessing.

"Mother!"

Chen Danniang's shout came from outside the door, and along with the thumping of footsteps, people rushed in, hugged Mrs. Chen who was standing on the stool, and burst into tears.

"Mother, don't you want Dan Niang anymore? Mother, don't you want Dan Niang anymore?"

Mrs. Chen's tears suddenly fell like rain, and the servants fell to the ground and cried loudly.

"You, you wait for the little lady to go on her way." Mrs. Chen cried.

The servants and women cried loudly.

"Slaves can't do it."

Mrs. Chen then reached out and pulled her belt.

"Danniang, don't be afraid, mother is with you." She said and put the belt around Chen Danniang's neck.

Chen Danniang cried loudly. Although she was young, she vaguely understood something.

"Mother, I'm not afraid." she cried.

It would have been better if she didn't speak. When she spoke, Mrs. Chen's hands shook so much that she couldn't hold her belt.

"Oh my god." She covered her face and cried loudly, "What evil did she do in her previous life?"

I'm crying here, and the footsteps are noisy outside.

"Everyone stand up, don't move around, don't get involved." Accompanied by shouts.

Mrs. Chen's face turned pale and she couldn't wait any longer. She gritted her teeth and pulled in the belt with force.

Chen Danniang shouted, her face turned red and she reached out to grab the belt around her neck.

The soldiers rushed in, rushed over and snatched the belt from Mrs. Chen's hand.

Chen Danniang fell to the ground and coughed violently.

"Please," Mrs. Chen shouted and knelt down in tears, "let her go away innocently."

After saying that, he kowtowed.

"Let her go away innocently."

Don't act like a prostitute, don't fall from wealth and prosperity into the quagmire, let everything stop in the best moments of your life.

The soldiers had seen this kind of scene many times, and they didn't have any expressions of sorrow and sigh, and they drove away numbly.

"Let's go, let's go," they said.

The servants were driven out staggeringly, and Mrs. Chen had to help Chen Danniang get up.

There are thousands of ways to die.

Mrs. Chen thought silently and stopped crying. All for the sake of dignity, leaving this trace of dignity.

"I want my bow."

They had already reached the front yard, and Chen Danniang suddenly broke away from her hand and ran back.

The soldiers immediately gathered around and pointed their swords and guns at Chen Danniang.

"Danniang." Mrs. Chen shouted and rushed over to catch her, her body trembling.

If you run around at this time, you will be killed on the spot.

Thinking of this, she smiled bitterly.

It's all death anyway, and it doesn't matter if you die like this.

In fact, he doesn't want to die.

"Danniang." She hugged Danniang and cried, "Don't run around, this is no longer our home, there is nothing belonging to us."

"Mother, I want my bow. You said it before. Sister Cheng gave me the bow and you want me to hold it properly." Chen Danniang cried, reaching back and saying, "I want to hold my bow."

The general standing in the courtyard suddenly came over.

"What does the lady want?" he asked.

Mrs. Chen looked at the general with some vigilance.

"I don't want anything." She held Chen Danniang in her arms and said.

"My bow." Chen Danniang struggled out and shouted, "This is the bow Sister Cheng gave me."

The general said.

"Then go get it." He said.

Mrs. Chen was stunned for a moment, but Chen Danniang was so happy that she ran away.

"Little lady," the general shouted again, "take it carefully and don't lose it. When someone comes to ask you for it, it won't look good if you can't find it."

Chen Danniang turned around.

"Of course not, I won't lose it," she said.

But here Mrs. Chen finally understood something, covered her face and knelt down and cried loudly.

There was a sudden commotion outside Chen's house.

"Stop, don't come any closer." The officers and soldiers shouted, pointing their weapons at the approaching woman.

Chen Shiba Niang stopped.

"What's wrong with His Royal Highness?" she asked, looking at the officers and soldiers with a pale face.

No one answered her.

"What's wrong with His Royal Highness?" Chen Shiba Niang shouted sharply and rushed over again, "What's wrong with my father?"

The officers and soldiers thrust their swords and guns in without hesitation.

The servant girl next to Chen Shiba Niang screamed in fear and stretched out her arms to hug her tightly. There was only one finger away from the tip of the gun.

"What's wrong, Your Highness?" Chen Shiba Niang didn't notice at all and still shouted.
