MTL - My Parents Are Omnipotent-Chapter 403 captives enter the city
Same as when the little emperor entered the city a few days ago, this time Xie Yuan also gave the Empress Dowager a chance to be paraded through the streets.
He didn’t do this out of intention to humiliate, but if he hadn’t come to this kind of experience, in this ancient society where news was blocked, others would not know that he had captured the empress dowager and emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Only by creating a grand enough ceremony, can this news be spread across the country at the fastest speed by merchants, bodyguards, and rangers traveling from north to south.
However, unlike the little emperor who was directly carried by Pei Huaiyu and rode a horse, the queen mother and her party members, without exception, were all loaded into dozens of prison cars specially prepared by Pei Yuanjiang.
During this period of time, the people in the capital have gotten used to the stable capital under the control of the Xie family's army. Even because the Xie family has strict control over the capital, those **** can't make trouble, and as officials and soldiers, the Xie family all uphold the principle of treating the people. Qiu has no principle of committing crimes, so most of the people in the capital are regretting that the capital did not change its owner earlier.
When the party of the Queen Mother, who was actually in power in the Great Zhou Dynasty, was sent to the capital in a prison car, what they saw was the people who had been hiding in their homes tremblingly, worrying about their livelihoods, but after a few days, they all died. It looks like a different one.
They stood on both sides of the street, with curiosity in their calm faces and hope in their eyes. Even if they were stopped by Xie Jiajun with knives and guns and loudly said that this is not allowed, that is not allowed, they are still not afraid at all.
It is true that they all obeyed the rules and did not violate Xie Jiajun's request that this is not allowed and that is not allowed, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that they are very concerned about the matter of "As long as I obey the rules, Xie Jiajun will not hurt me" Convinced.
Unlike before, the people were as afraid of the officials and soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty as if a mouse saw a cat, a frog saw a snake, and a chick saw a yellow man who sneaked into the chicken coop.
This scene made the Queen Mother's party more and more aware that the Xie family was the winner who really won the hearts of the people.
In just a few days, the Xie family actually brought hope and peace of mind to the people in the capital. This is what they didn't want to do, and they didn't bother to do it. It was also what the courtiers who were framed by them wanted to do but failed to do. of.
The young queen mother sitting in the prison car with her eyes downcast neither looked around furtively like the others, nor did she take the curses of the people around her to heart.
She has maintained a deadpan expression since she was arrested, including her two brothers, no one knows what the former ruler of the Great Zhou was thinking.
Fortunately, the members of the Xie family are not interested in the thoughts of the Empress Dowager Zhou, they just need this woman to stop making trouble outside.
The prison van entered from the south gate of the capital, passed through the crowd, and entered the heavily guarded prison of Dali Temple along several main streets of the capital.
The prisoners on the car were all put into the cell, and then, Xie will send someone to interrogate them.
As for the little emperor who entered the city a few days earlier, he was placed in Xie Mansion Guest House by Xie Yuan, and Pei Huaiyu, who had a lot of kindness towards him, took full responsibility.
According to Xie Yuan's instructions, Pei Huaiyu treated the little emperor very well. Not only did he specially give him time to recuperate from his illness, but he also deliberately slowed down on the way back so that his body, which had taken so much effort to recover, would not become weak again due to the exhaustion of the journey.
In addition, Pei Huaiyu also had a thorough investigation with the little emperor in advance, and told him straightforwardly in words he could understand, as long as he listened to Xie Yuan well, Xie Yuan would definitely treat him well.
The little emperor liked Pei Huaiyu very much, the person who was the most gentle and kind to him in his life. After listening to Pei Huaiyu's advice, he carefully asked Pei Huaiyu, "If I am obedient, no one will scold me, make me hungry, Pinch me, hit me, smother me with a pillow?"
He counted the offenses he had suffered one by one with his fingers, and there was both timidity and hope in his voice.
Pei Huaiyu was heartbroken by his question.
You must know that this was the former emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Even if he was still young when he ascended the throne and knew nothing about it, even if the Great Zhou Dynasty had already shown a state of collapse and exhaustion at that time, he alone The emperor shouldn't be treated like this, right?
He held the little emperor's hand, and promised him seriously, "Yes, as long as you are obedient, you won't suffer any more."
"Then I'll be obedient." The little emperor who was completely raised and abandoned by his nominal mother, the empress dowager of the Great Zhou Dynasty, who didn't know anything about ancestral foundation, honor and disgrace of his family and country, made a promise in a second.
Then, he perfectly carried out his promise.
Beside the gate of the capital, Pei Huaiyu asked him to get out of the carriage, at least with him. Although the little emperor had never ridden a horse, he still handed him the hand to Pei Huaiyu with an obedient expression.
Pei Huaiyu carried him onto the horse and led him into the capital under the watchful eyes of the people in the capital.
Afterwards, the two arrived at Xie's Mansion and met Xie Yuan. Xie Yuan asked him to live in Xie's Guest House, and the child immediately agreed without hesitation.
At first, Xie Yuan wondered, isn't this the little emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty? Didn't they say they were already ten years old? Why do you still look so stupid?
It wasn't until Pei Huaiyu settled the child, and then turned back alone, and told Xie Yuan about the child's past experience, that Xie Yuan knew that the child was deliberately raised and abandoned by the power-hungry Empress Dowager Zhou.
He shook his head rather speechlessly, "Before I was worried that if he committed suicide and insisted on dying for the country, I would be criticized by future generations and force the young emperor to death. Now it's all right, the empress dowager helped us a lot gone."
It was rare to hear him speak harshly and sarcastically, Pei Huaiyu felt quite fresh.
You must know that Xie Yuan would never show his vicious side in front of Pei Huaiyu before.
He has been out of touch with him, and he no longer deliberately maintains a persona in front of him. Thinking about it this way, Pei Huaiyu thinks that Xie Yuan probably also regards him as his own person through and through.
This is really, gratifying.
When Pei Huaiyu was happy, he immediately worked harder. He arranged all the tasks Xie Yuan assigned to him in an orderly manner.
Not only the matter of taking care of the little emperor, but also a large number of royal family members who were brought back by Pingkang County King and others, Pei Huaiyu also sent heavy troops to send them all to the northeast of the capital, a total of three miles away from the capital, according to Xie Yuan's intention. Tongxiang County, which is more than a hundred miles away.
Tongxiang County is a medium-sized county that is neither rich nor poor. However, these royal family members did not live in the county seat.
For the convenience of monitoring, Xie Yuan designated a special area in Tongxiang County for them, right under the eyes of the Xie Jiajun stationed in Tongxiang County.
After they pass by, the Xie Family Army stationed in Tongxiang County will take on the heavy responsibility of guarding them.
