Chapter 31 I want to reward you
I don’t know how many cases of such favoritism there are.

Chu Chengye directly ordered the relevant officials to be executed, and all the others who used their positions in Dali Temple for public and private purposes were beaten fifty-fifty and imprisoned in the dungeon, hoping that they would also experience the feeling of being unjustly imprisoned and never see the light of day.

Countless people have died in vain at their hands, and now Zhou Quan, the culprit, is still being stubborn, claiming ignorance and injustice.

What he did as an emperor was a real failure.

An anger rushed straight into Chu Chengye's head, his eyes darkened, and his eyebrows twisted with murderous intent.

Chu Chengye snatched the sword from Cheng Sheng's hand and pointed it straight at Zhou Quan who was kneeling in front of him, and a cold voice sounded.

"Didn't you say that you were unjustly accused? Ask me who told me this? Then I'm telling you now, it's because of the woman you forced to death, and because of your unjust ghost who died in vain. They cry in my ears every day, You said you wanted me to execute you, but you said I would listen, or wouldn’t you say you didn’t?”

Zhou Quan looked at the tip of the sword so close in front of him and shook his head in panic.

"I can't find peace with those evil spirits, so of course I have to listen."

After finishing the sentence, Chu Chengye narrowed his eyes slightly, his dark eyes began to turn red, and his sinister eyes were filled with coldness.

He gently turned his wrist and gave Zhou Quan's neck a cut in front of him.

Zhou Quan's eyes widened and he fell to the ground, lifeless.

After Cheng Sheng realized that Chu Chengye had killed Zhou Quan, he hurriedly covered Cheng Jin's eyes.

As expected, Cheng Jin was already frightened.

Cheng Jin's breathing stopped, his pupils were filled with shock, and his heart was beating so fast that it almost jumped out of his chest.

Cheng Sheng's hand gently covered Cheng Jin's eyes and comforted him softly: "It's okay, it's okay, brother is here."

Cheng Jin's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he didn't even close his eyes. He couldn't tell what he was feeling in his heart, but tears fell down his cheeks.

Zhou Quan obviously dragged Cheng Jin to drown her just now. If Cheng Sheng hadn't arrived in time, he would be the one who would die now.

But now, Zhou Quan was lying next to him, and Cheng Jin didn't feel much relaxed and resentful emotion in his heart.

I just feel that human life is so fragile, and Chu Chengye took Zhou Quan's life so lightly.

She came in through the book, and knew that in this era, human life was like grass, Zhou Quan's life was like grass, the Cheng family's life was like grass, and so was hers.

Chu Chengye took the sword in his hand and asked Wei An to wipe it carefully before handing it to Cheng Sheng. Only then did he notice something unusual about Cheng Jin.

Is Cheng Jin so afraid?

After all, Cheng Sheng is also the deputy general in the military camp. Cheng Jin should be more aware of what he is doing. Why is he so afraid now?

Chu Chengye had doubts.

Chu Chengye did not expect that Cheng Jin was a young lady who had been raised in a boudoir since she was a child. How could she see such a bloody scene.

Immediately, Chu Chengye took off his coat, threw it over the Zhou Quan body, and said, "Okay."

When Cheng Sheng saw that the bloody scene was covered, he let go of the hand covering Cheng Jin's eyes and respectfully took the sword from Chu Chengye's hand.

"Your Majesty is still young and has never seen such a scene. Please don't blame me, Your Majesty."

Chu Chengye nodded, but he didn't think about it.

Chu Chengye only thought of Cheng Jin's scolding him as a tyrant and a blind person, but he forgot about it.

Chu Chengye looked at Cheng Jin. She didn't seem to have recovered from the shock. She just looked at one place blankly, her eyes unblinking. The corners of her almond-shaped eyes were stained with undried tears. She was as beautiful as a Frightened deer.

Cheng Jin also quickly adjusted his attitude and quickly put on a respectful look, "I am the coward." She understood her situation and the status of the Cheng family in Chu Chengye's eyes.

Now that Chu Chengye said that he would kill Zhou Quan because Zhou Quan's affairs disturbed his peace, then when she offended Chu Chengye and the Cheng family offended Chu Chengye, wouldn't they have the same fate.

What she had to do was to coax Chu Chengye into a happy mood and let her go, as well as everyone in the Cheng Mansion.

Cheng Yishou met Chu Chengye outside the door, and Chu Chengye asked him to return to Cheng Mansion first.

When Chu Chengye, Cheng Jin, Cheng Sheng and his entourage returned to Cheng Mansion, Cheng Yishou immediately sent someone to bring the evidence hidden in the mansion to Chu Chengye for inspection. Chu Chengye frowned as he looked at it.

Cheng Jin glanced at it and felt that Zhou Quan deserved to die.

[Oh, there are so many girls. Zhou Quan was in very good health during his lifetime. 】

[Hundreds of young girls are probably here to watch the emperor choose his concubine. 】

[That’s not right, this tyrant now only has her and Hui Guiren in his harem. 】

Chu Chengye raised his eyes and glared at Cheng Jin.

Cheng Jin's change of mood was quite fast. One second he was very frightened, and the next second he was here and he was the same as before.

Just as bold.

Cheng Jin noticed the gaze, touched his nose with some guilt, and looked away.

"Zhou Quan is dead. According to the emperor's wishes, what should be done with Zhou Quan's family members and the girls outside the city?"

"The Zhou Mansion and the money in the Mansion are returned to the treasury. Although Zhou Quan's affairs have nothing to do with their family members, failing to report the knowledge is also a serious crime. The family members are sent back to their hometowns, and the servants and maids will see how the government handles them. As for those girls..."

Chu Chengye was silent for a while.

Indeed, it is well known that those girls are being kept in an outer room outside the city. If they are sent home now, I am afraid they will not be treated coldly by others, but if they are not sent away, it will be a big deal if they are kept there.

[Don’t send those girls home. According to the current era, Tumo Xingzi can drown people. If you let them go home, I’m afraid it’s better to let them stay outside the city. 】

Chu Chengye heard Cheng Jin's thoughts and turned his head to look in Cheng Jin's direction.

"Rong Fei, what do you think?"

Cheng Jin shook his head reservedly, "Your Majesty, how do I know these things?"

Before Chu Chengye could stop asking her to say a few words, he heard Cheng Jin continue to speak.

"A woman's reputation is extremely important. Now if we want them to go home, I'm afraid they will be ignored by others. By then, it is estimated that many girls will not be able to bear the pressure and seek death."

Chu Chengye nodded, Cheng Jin really thought carefully.

"It's better to let them do some needlework and other things at the official offices in the city. This will keep them away from the gossips of outsiders, and also allow them to support themselves without having to rely on others."

"Okay, then do as you say."

The method Cheng Jin said is a good solution.

Seeing that Chu Chengye was about to pass on the order, Cheng Jin quickly stopped Chu Chengye.

"Your Majesty, wait a minute, although there is not much gossip in the officialdom, I still feel that the superiors of those girls should be selected from among the women, so that no bullying can happen."

Chu Chengye chuckled a few times and said, "Concubine Rong is so thoughtful, I want to reward you."
