Chapter 300 You don’t know that you are wrong, but you know that you are going to die!
Li Shimin's words pierced Yin Fei's heart. In an instant, despair flooded her eyes like a tide.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! You must never act like this!"
Her mournful cry was filled with terror.
"Your Majesty, You'er is your own blood, how could you bear it?"
Li Shimin seemed not to hear anything, his eyes were as deep and bottomless as a cold pond. He just glanced at Yin Fei indifferently. His gaze was like an ice knife, cutting Yin Fei's heart and causing her dull pain.
Then, without looking back, he strode towards where Li Chengqian was.
Li Chengqian saw Li Shimin from afar and quickly stood up from his chair, saying respectfully, "Father, please take a seat."
Li Shimin nodded slightly, his expression full of majesty.
Several young eunuchs quickly and skillfully brought a throne and placed it slightly in front of Li Shimin's seat.
Li Shimin glanced lightly and slowly stretched out his arm. With a firm movement, he pulled the chair steadily to the same level as himself.
Seeing this, Li Chengqian raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a respectful smile.
"Thank you, Father."
After saying this, he did not sit down, but walked straight towards Qin Ruzhao with steady steps.
"Ru Zhao, where is my belt?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Ruzhao immediately picked up the belt with both hands and handed it to Li Chengqian carefully.
This belt is by no means comparable to ordinary fabrics. It is an important accessory on the ceremonial vessels of the Tang Dynasty emperor. It is usually hidden deep in the palace and can only be admired from afar by the public.
It is made of gold and copper and is carefully forged. It feels cool to the touch and quite heavy. It is carefully engraved with the sun, moon, stars, and auspicious mountain dragons and insects. Every pattern demonstrates the supreme majesty of the royal family.
Li Chengqian took the belt from Qin Ruzhao and shook it gently. In an instant, the belt made a crisp and pleasant metallic collision sound. The sound spread across the square, sounding the prelude to something ominous.
He lifted the belt high and let the heavy gold-bronze belt drag slowly along the ground, making a creepy dragging sound as it rubbed against the blue bricks.
When he passed by Yin Fei, he paused slightly, turned his head to the side, and looked at Yin Fei with ice-cold eyes, without any mercy in them.
Almost at the same time, dozens of young eunuchs quickly gathered around and grabbed Yin Fei tightly. Yin Fei struggled hard, tears and shouts intertwined.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you must not do this. He is your own brother!"
"Your Majesty, I beg you!"
"Please have mercy, Your Majesty!"
Her cries became more and more shrill, and her cries were full of blood. However, Li Chengqian had a heart of stone, his face remained stern, and he dragged himself to Li You.
Li You raised his eyes and stared at Li Chengqian, feeling a little dizzy for a moment. In a trance, he saw the awe-inspiring shadow of Li Shimin in Li Chengqian, the same majesty, the same inviolability.
But he still had stubbornness and unwillingness in his heart, staring at Li Chengqian intently.
"Li Chengqian, are you trying to kill me in front of my father?"
"Do you have the guts to do this? Aren't you afraid that history will record your brutal and evil deeds, leaving you infamous for eternity?"
Although his voice was trembling, he still pretended to be calm.
However, before he could finish his words, Li Chengqian suddenly swung his arm, and the belt in his hand came down hard on Li You with a whistling sound.
The force of this attack was so incredible that Li You was stunned for a moment, and at first his body was completely unconscious.
A moment later, it was as if tens of millions of sharp needles pierced his body at the same time, and the severe pain came like a surging wave. His whole body began to tremble violently and uncontrollably, unable to bear the sudden pain.
Before he could recover from the severe pain, Li Chengqian's belt fell down again like a storm.
The fear in Li You's heart finally broke out like a flood.
"Your Majesty, please stop fighting! Your Majesty!"
His voice began to choke.
"No, my Royal Brother, I already know I was wrong. My Royal Brother, I will never do it again. Please imprison me in the palace, just like you did to Li Tai. Please, my Royal Brother!"
He begged desperately, his eyes filled with fear.
Li Chengqian seemed to be deaf to his pleas for mercy, and his hands did not slow down at all, continuing to beat him mercilessly with one belt after another.
Li You's clothes were gradually stained with blood, a patch of crimson, and there was a clear dent in his ribs, which was a horrible sight.
After a while, Li Chengqian finally stopped his movements, perhaps because his arms felt a little numb and tired. He looked down at Li You, who was beaten all over and even spoke incoherently.
"Li You, Li You, I gave you the opportunity to mend your ways, but you squandered it without a care."
"Think carefully about what you've done. You were so arrogant and rude before, but now you're begging for mercy like this. It's really ridiculous."
"Besides, Li You, you still haven't realized where you went wrong."
"You don't know you're going to make a mistake, you know you're going to die!"
