When Ye Kai was finally forced to walk off the platform and disappeared into the crowd, Chu Hanqian held back the tears that were about to gush and tightened the dagger hidden in her sleeve.

She is so beautiful that whenever she walks on the street, she will attract people's eyes, whether envious, jealous or provocative. So in order not to attract people's attention, she chose a black veil and covered her face today.

Her thoughts were guessed, and the moment she exchanged glances with Ye Kai, her thoughts were guessed by Ye Kai. So Ye Kai could only keep shaking his head. He didn't want her to take risks, he didn't want her to make unnecessary sacrifices, he just wanted her to be safe, so he would be at ease when he left.

Chu Hanqian's body was trembling constantly. She felt that she could no longer control herself. The dagger seemed to have life, constantly urging Chu Hanqian to let the knife be unsheathed.

"I'll try it once, no matter whether it works or not!"

As soon as Chu Hanqian moved, someone behind her held her shoulder.

"Senior sister, once you take action, the consequences will be that the loved ones will suffer and the enemy will be happy!"

"Wantong, I..."

Qi Wantong signaled not to communicate too much, and the crowd had already begun to flow, because all the prisoners were arranged on the underworld platform, and the people were rushing towards the edge, all wanting to get the best position.

A total of 37 prisoners fell to their knees on the platform, and did not seem crowded. Shen Qianji and a group of prison officials stood at a staircase above the platform, and read out the criminals' crimes in front of everyone. Judging from this crime, these people were really guilty and had more than enough death. Beheading their heads was already favorable to them, otherwise they would have to use Lingchi to relieve their anger.

When Shen Qianji finished reading the crime, the scene was still silent, no people applauded or cried, but they just watched quietly and waited.

Shen Qianji did not take the reaction of the people seriously at all. His task was to ensure that all these people were executed. Of course, it would not be a bad thing if some suspects were involved on the scene. As long as they dared to take action, he would be confident that he would be able to catch all of these people in one go. Shen Qianji looked up at the people who had been installed around him, and felt quite calm.

The prisoners would no longer shout out loud or cursed or harsh words when they were gagged. Shen Qianji and the others had nothing to say. They were just footstones on his way forward, and they should be discarded after they were used up.

The prisoners knelt on the cold ground, and their limbs became numb after being tied up for a long time. They all knew that this discomfort would not last too long, and they would soon be relieved. But in fact, it is really relief? Will someone wash their grievances in the future? Is their reputation so indifferent? Are they going to become victims of the struggle?

There was no Xiao Moyan among these thirty-seven. At this time, he was being detained in the prison of the Ministry of Justice, and Yan Keran stood opposite him.

"Why are you leaving me alone?" Xiao Moyan asked first after a long silence.

"I beg the Emperor, even if it's you

The crime is convicted and life is left.”

"Crime? What are my crimes?"

"Moyan, this is to eliminate dissidents, can't you still see that? If you want to accuse someone of crime, who can clearly explain it?"

"I don't plead guilty! I hope I will be taken to the execution ground at this time, and I will die with my senior brother and others, so as to stay in this dark dungeon!"

"Your life was only kept by me begging the emperor. If you don't cherish it, I will cherish it! I can only save one person, I can only choose you. You are my playmate since I was a child, you are my classmate for seven years, I know your innocence, I can't watch you die!"

"What about Senior Brother Liao? What about Senior Brother Ye Kai? And those classmates who are also from the same background and discharged from the hospital? Can you watch them die?"

"I can only choose to give up on them than to see you die. Moyan, admit your fault, and then swear allegiance to the emperor, you still have the chance to get out of prison."

"When did I betray Daliang? I am loyal to this country, not any monarch. Besides, he should be very clear about how the emperor ascended the throne!"

"Silently speaking! You have the truth in your heart! You uphold the teachings of sages! You are dedicated to planning the country! So what? You are now imprisoned and you cannot save yourself. How do you save the people? How can you prosper? What you expect is just your own fantasy, you have no life left, so how can you talk about your ambitions!"

"Ke Ran, did you forget what we studied in the academy? After entering the officialdom, why did you become so unrecognizable? I almost couldn't recognize you. The original Yan Ke Ran was not like this!"

"The original Yan Keran is dead! After my father was killed in the Qianyuan Palace transformation, Yan Keran has already followed him! Have you ever felt the loneliness of the mansion from the crowded carriages to the deserted doors? Have you ever experienced the embarrassment from everyone's competing to the lack of people's interest? Have you ever understood the blood and sweat that you have to pay to maintain the glory of the family? Have you ever experienced the sadness of pretending to be strong in front of others after licking your wounds alone? I have tasted it one by one in the past two months! Fortunately, the emperor has a green eye and has not blamed me, but has promoted my official title."

Xiao Moyan sneered: "You finally said the key point. Should I call you Commander Yan now?"

As if he had done something bad and was exposed, Yan Keran was at a loss, although his purpose today was not to show off his official position to his former friends.

"Moyan, even if you are indifferent to fame and fortune, you have to consider your family! Before I came, Ling Zun came to ask me for help, hoping to save your life. Your Xiao family is a single descendant of three generations. If it is broken in your hands, what are your faces to meet the ancestors?"

Xiao Moyan stood up and knelt down and kowtowed to Yan Keran. This scene made Yan Keran extremely frightened. He retreated repeatedly and asked, "What do you mean?"

"I apologize to you for my dad!"

"You!" Yan Keran was so angry that she couldn't speak.

"Go back, all the blame is pushed to me."

After Xiao Moyan finished speaking, he sat back to the corner alone, closed his eyes and stopped looking.

Yan Keran. When Yan Keran left angrily, he still opened his eyes and seemed to see the scene on the underworld platform through the thick wall.

Four executioners stood behind the prisoner, raised the ghost-headed knife high and fell down quickly, and could hear the sound of bone breakage and the sound of blood splattering. If there was anything more terrifying than being beheaded, then there would be nothing more to wait for beheaded. Such a bloody scene happened in front of you, and the next moment it was my turn to lift the knife down. If it were anyone else, I wouldn't be calm in my heart.

Four executioners all went on the battle, with skillful movements and high efficiency. One stick of incense has already brought sixteen prisoners to the underworld.

When the executioner walked behind him with a bloody ghost-headed knife, Liao Zhen straightened his body and stared at Chen Qianji. He wanted to laugh, but because he was gag, he laughed very insignificantly. He was born as a human being, and he should have walked openly enough at this moment.

The ghost head raised the sword and the blade slashed. After a moment of pain, there was complete nothingness. Liao Zhen's head rolled to the ground, and Chen Qianji's face had no expression.

Chu Hanqian felt that there were millions of ants chewing on her body. She wanted to kill her from the crowd immediately and directly subdued Chen Qianji even if she couldn't save everyone, she would kill her soon.

Although Qi Wantong used all her strength to hug Chu Hanqian, she was still worried that this senior sister would suddenly rush to the underworld platform, so the task assigned to her by Ye Kai would be a complete failure. At that time, the two of them were likely to become ghosts under the sword together.

Ye Kai had already locked in Chu Hanqian in the crowd. His eyes contained thousands of contents. Almost all of them were the last sentence: Don’t do stupid things, live well!

When the executioner walked behind Ye Kai, it was the moment when Chu Hanqian's full strength reached its peak. As long as Qi Wantong let go, she would jump onto the underworld platform immediately. Ye Kai's eyes kept suppressing Chu Hanqian tightly and did not give her any chance to take action.

He smiled, with tears in his smile. As his head rolled down, the crystal tears flew out, and the light shone in the tears. It was the past of Ye Kai and Chu Hanqian. One of them was a street gangster and the other was a girl sold to a brothel by his parents. They supported each other to get rid of their unbearable past and entered the academy to gain a brand new life.

Twenty years, how many twenty years of life are there, and the most important twenty years of their lives are spent together. Ye Kai frequently expressed his affection for Chu Hanqian, but Chu Hanqian never responded positively. In other people's eyes, Ye Kai was not worthy of Chu Hanqian's beauty. In fact, only Chu Hanqian himself knew that his dirtyness was not worthy of Ye Kai's infatuation.

She regretted it very much, regretted not agreeing to Ye Kai, even once, at least they will not leave any regrets now. Unfortunately, time will not give people any chance to go back on their word, and missing it is a lifelong mistake.
