Chapter 811 : Beg for mercy, keep people under the knife!

Two days later, the court.

It was just mid-September that winter just entered, but the temperature dropped sharply on this day and the cold wind whistled.

The sky was gray, as if it was going to snow.

There are few pedestrians on the road, and everyone is walking in a hurry.

No one dared to approach Caishikou at the end of Zhuque Street, and was surrounded by heavy troops early in the morning.

The prison cart passed by, and the ground was yellow, and the autumn leaves fell into mud in the cold wind.

Gu Yuqi was soon pressed onto the guillotine by two big and thick men, and her thin prison clothes swayed in the north wind.

"Kneel down!" The executioner kicked Gu Yuqi's leg bent, but he did not move at all.

"kneel……"

When the man raised his foot and kicked him again, Gu Yuqi's eyes slashed and screamed. Before he could react, he flew down from the guillotine directly.

"You—" The others suddenly clenched their fists when they saw this, "Go up and press him down and kneel down!"

"Forget it, forget it..."

When everyone heard this, they followed the old voice.

"I have met Mr. Kang." The people present immediately saluted.

"No need to be polite, get up." Jun Wenkang's voice was kind and looked at Gu Yuqi and said, "If he doesn't want to kneel down, he won't kneel down."

"Thank you, Grandpa Kang." Gu Yuqi bowed.

Hearing his name, Jun Wenkang couldn't help it and sighed quietly, "You shouldn't have come back."

He still remembers that more than ten years ago, Gu Changqing took this kid to his mansion for free.

When something happened to Anping's palace, he submitted several memorials to the emperor for pardoning Gu Yuqi, but unfortunately the emperor was determined to confiscate the house and destroy the palace.

When he learned that he was still alive, he excitedly lit a few sticks of incense on Gu Changqing.

But unexpectedly, in just a few months, he became a traitor and was sent to the Heavenly Prison.

He even didn't expect that their grandfather and grandson would meet again on the guillotine!

Emperor Xing wanted to kill Gu Yuqi himself and asked him to come to prison for execution. He was unwilling to do so, and in the end the princess convinced him.

Although cruel, he can still meet him this time.

It has been seventeen years since the child has grown up, and the shadow of Gu Changqing can be vaguely seen on his face.

How great would it be if the things that happened back then did not happen?

Looking at Gu Yuqi, Jun Wenkang couldn't help but sigh again and raised his foot back to his seat.

"What a great child, what a pity." As soon as he sat down, his younger brother, Prince Li, shook his head and spoke.

"Yes, if it weren't for the past, he would be a pillar of the court now. How could Changqing's son be bad?"

Jun Wenli looked regretful, "The king asked his minister to die, but he had to die. You and I have lived for most of our lives. Can you still not understand this matter in the royal family?"

"I understand it, but I really can't bear to watch this child die again." Jun Wenkang sighed.

"What, you have a way?"

Jun Wenkang shook his head, "The emperor is a stubborn person. It is useless for anyone to persuade him to do what he decides. I have been thinking about the past two days, but I have not thought of any way to save my life."

"It's a pity that boy Qinghan also died suddenly, otherwise he could have counted on this child."

"At worst, we two will join forces with the Minister of Justice and the Censorate to plead with the emperor?"

"Now, that's all."

The two were talking when a majestic voice suddenly came, "The emperor is here!"

"See the Emperor, long live the Emperor!"

"Flat!" Emperor Xing was covered in bright yellow, wearing a fox fur cloak, raised his arms, and looked down on the world with his eyebrows.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Emperor Xing lifted his robe and sat at the prison where he killed his eagle, and his eagle eyes locked Gu Yuqi directly.

Today is his death date!

"Your Majesty, you asked us two old bones to be executed early in the morning. We still don't know who the beheaded is?" Jun Wenkang stood up and bowed.

"Two uncles, don't pretend to be confused. Which of you doesn't know Gu Yuqi?"

"Gu Yuqi?" Jun Wenkang stroked his beard, "This name sounds a bit familiar, let me think about it..."

"Brother, this Gu Yuqi is the young prince of King Anping." Jun Wenli reminded him on the side.

"As soon as you remind me, I remembered it." Jun Wenkang said and looked at Emperor Xing, "I wonder what crime the boy of the Gu family committed?"

"He was guilty of treason!" Emperor Xing said sternly.

"Planning for rebellion?" Jun Wenkang said suspiciously, "Why didn't I know that he committed rebellion?"

Emperor Xing showed displeasure, "Uncle Emperor, are you really confused or pretending to be confused? Gu Changqing intended to rebel back then, and Gu Yuqi was just a fish that missed the net!"

"Your Majesty, it's better to..."

"Absolutely impossible!" Emperor Xing interrupted him sternly.

"Your Majesty, this child Yuqi is innocent. You might as well spare his life." Jun Wenli glanced at Jun Wenkang and continued.

"Uncle, I asked you to come here to be a prisoner, not to ask you to plead with me!"

Gu Yuqi turned his eyes to look at the two princes and bowed: "Thank you, Grandpa Kang and Grandpa Li, you don't have to plead for Yuqi, Yuqi is not afraid of death."

"This, alas..." Jun Wenkang couldn't help but sigh.

"Your Majesty, it's time for noon." Ye Cheng reminded Emperor Xing.

"Gu Yuqi is the remnant of the king Changqing, and he will die! The person is here to be executed!" Emperor Xing said as he threw down the order of execution.

"Your Majesty, think twice..." Jun Wenkang said in a hurry.

Emperor Xing didn't even look at it, his voice was cold, "Punishment immediately!"

After receiving the order, the executioner, who was big and thick, picked up his long knife, poured a sip of wine, and quenched it out.

The bright big knife suddenly raised and cut through the cold air.

Gu Yuqi stared at Emperor Xing without blinking, with sarcastic and disdainful eyes, but he was not afraid.

Emperor Xing's eyes were filled with murderous aura. After a while, he waited for his head to land. Let's see how arrogant he was!

Just as the big sword was about to fall, a stern and anxious female voice suddenly came, "Stay under the sword!"

The next moment, a pink figure hurried over, ran directly to the guillotine, and protected Gu Yuqi in his arms, "Father, keep someone under the knife!"

"You are so brave!" Emperor Xing was furious when he saw Jun Chujing.

"I don't care, I don't want him to die." Jun Chujing hugged Gu Yuqi and tightly.

"Come, pull her away!" Emperor Xing ordered sternly.

Looking at the executioner who walked forward, Jun Chujing said coldly, "I am the Ninth Princess, who dares to touch me?"

"Ye Cheng, go and pull the person away!"

Seeing Ye Cheng coming, Jun Chujing gritted her teeth and knelt down, "Father, I beg you, let Aqi go."

Jun Wenkang and Jun Wenli looked at this scene and were confused. What is this situation?

Could it be that Xiao Jiuer fell in love with the boy from the Gu family?

While thinking, Jun Chujing's voice came again, "Father, Jing'er likes him. If he dies, Jing'er can't survive. Please..."
