Chapter 193: Escorted to the Execution Ground
Chai Yan was overjoyed when he received the news, so he told the world that Chai Yi and three others had confessed. The three of them intended to rebel, colluded with each other, bribed the imperial court to order officials, deceived the emperor and violated the emperor, and immediately ordered the three of them to be beheaded in three days! No one from the court dared to stand up and plead for mercy.
At this time, Chai Qian also arrived in Kyoto. All the way they heard about Chai Yi’s rebellion. Most people still thought Chai Yi was wronged. As they got closer, the news about Chai Yi also made progress. When he arrived at the palace, he learned that Chai Yi would be asked for the death three days later.
In the back garden of the palace, Chai Qian met Chai Yan here.
"My brother, please see the emperor!"
"Second brother, please come up!" He looked at Chai Qian deeply, and Chai Yan said, "I guess the second brother has heard about the sixth brother, right? The sixth brother's intention to rebel is something I didn't expect. I am also in a difficult situation when facing such a problem. The nine ministers of the sixth ministries unanimously agreed that they should be beheaded and displayed to the public. I am the emperor of the world. Even if the sixth brother knows the law and breaks the law, I can't save him! I can't tolerate it! Second brother, do you understand my pain? Over the past few days, my father has come to me to excuse the sixth brother for his crimes. But as the emperor, I know that I must not do that! Otherwise, it would be a foolish monarch who would be infatuated for thousands of years!"
"So what the emperor means..." Chai Qian asked with his eyes narrowed, but he had already figured it out in his heart.
"Oh!" Chai Yan sighed and said, "The world is not peaceful now. Many officials have submitted memorials and wrote a copy of you, saying that you are also suspected of collusion between He Liudi. You were originally going to send you to Beijing for investigation, but I believe you! Second brother will hand over the border military power to me first! When the peace comes, the second brother will take office immediately! What do you think?"
"Hahaha!" Chai Qian couldn't help laughing, and then said solemnly: "I'm afraid that the emperor is the soldiers in the border, and I'm the one who will die next? After you are killed by you, I'm afraid that the person who will die next! Or I will definitely die if I hand over the military power! Unfortunately, the military power was not brought by me, and your wishful thinking was good! But you can kill me! But you can't get the 200,000 soldiers in the border!"
"You..." Chai Yan was angry by Chai Qian's words. Unexpectedly, he showed up with him directly, "Chai Qian! Do you think you can't do anything to you if you keep the military power at the border? I have a army of 500,000! Do you think I will take your mere 200,000 troops seriously?"
Chai Qian smiled and said, "Of course, the emperor will not be afraid of my 200,000 army, but I don't know if the emperor is afraid of the Jin people's golden swords and iron horses? As far as I know, the Jin people are ready to go south, with a total of 800,000 army! As long as the Turks are captured, the next target is the Great Zhou! This news is conveyed from the Turks! The Emperor should not know! If the Great Zhou fights a civil war and there is no one to guard the border, the Jin people can easily invade. Even if you successfully quell the border rebellion, you will also be greatly damaged! By then, the Great Zhou energy is coming and not far from destruction. The foundation of the Great Zhou for more than ten years will be defeated in your hands. If you want to be famous in history, you can only dream! And you can only leave a devil for thousands of years!" This was naturally Chai Qian coaxed Chai Yan, but what he said was so high-sounding that Chai Yan believed it!
"Shut up! Stop talking!" These words deeply stimulated Chai Yan. He always wanted to become an emperor of a generation and be respected by thousands of people, but if he really followed Chai Qian's words, the foundation of the Great Zhou would really be defeated by himself.
"Okay! Very good!" Chai Yan was furious, "I can't kill you! But I can make you live worse than death! I can't get the 200,000 army, and you can't get it either!"
"Where are you here! Detain King Liang! Eat every six days! Water every three days! I want to see what you can live! I want to let you watch Chai Yi die at my hands with your own eyes!" Chai Yan said with a dark face.
Chai Qian bit his lip and just looked at him, but did not speak, waiting for someone to take him down.
Three days later,
Hundreds of Dali Temple yamen run to the entrance of Caishikou, Kyoto, surrounded by mule carts that imprisoned Chai Yi and the other two. The three of them looked pale, their hands and fingers were covered with blood and flesh.
Caishikou is a downtown city. People from all over the country pass by here, enter the Kyoto gate and the inner city of Kyoto, and most of them pass by here.
Many people watched. In the past, prisoners would prepare rotten eggs and uneasy vegetable leaves to kill them, and gathered here to greet the prisoners, but this time they did not. They were just watching.
Chai Yi and the other two were taken out of the prison car and pushed to the beheading platform set up at the T-junction. Chai Yi raised his head and squinted his eyes to look into the distance. After the heavy rain last night, the branches and leaves of the two rows of locust trees were as green as new. Looking north, you can see the majestic Xuanwu Gate from afar. Chai Yi was staring at everything in front of him. At this time, he saw an extremely familiar figure from the crowd. The man was smiling at him and gave himself a reassuring look.
Today, the person who was killed was His Highness of the King of Qi from the Great Zhou Empire. Moreover, the case was very exciting, so the prison officer was personally taken by Bao Zheng, the Minister of Justice and the First-rank Master. Seeing that noon was approaching, Bao Zheng picked up the red pen from the tin pen holder and hooked the slaying sign. He threw it down and said, "The time has come, behead!"
Chai Yi was a famous figure in the capital, and countless people came to see him off. Hearing the word "Slaying", the crowd couldn't help but feel a stir. Suddenly, he cried and shouted, "Prince!"
Chai Yi's body shook and looked into the crowd in the sound. He saw a strange girl wearing white clothes, and was stopped outside the crowd by soldiers with guns. She was struggling to squeeze in, and there were many people next to her who helped her push the spear. Chai Yi's lips trembled and said tremblingly: "Girl... are you? Chai Yi doesn't know you?"
The girl said, "You have told me the myth of the White Snake and promised to come back and give me a title!"
He knew who the girl was! At this moment, Chai Yi's tears fell. After looking for a long time, he closed his eyes and shouted loudly: "Go back! I will definitely give you the reputation! But it's not now! Don't cause me trouble!"
The girl is Wei Nishang, who is good at using disguise!
When the people next to him saw Wei Nishang being blocked outside, they immediately started to clamor: "Let them meet, sir, let the couple meet!"
Li Cheng next to him was furious and said to Bao Zheng, the Minister of Justice who was imprisoned, who was imprisoned, "It's time for you to ask for the execution!"
"Oh! Otherwise, let them meet?" Bao Zheng thought for a while and said. To be honest, he didn't believe that Chai Yi would rebel.
Li Cheng immediately refused and said, "No! When the time comes, the emperor will hear the news that the head of King Qi has fallen! The emperor is watching not far away! Hurry up and start!"
Seeing the crowd, Bao Zheng frowned slightly when he heard Li Cheng say this. It was not that he didn't want to, but that the emperor had his fate and could not disobey him. He could only say: "Behead!"
call.
