Rebirth as Princess Jin again

The queen was waiting for news from Situ Yan in the palace, and Situ Yan quickly went to Zhaoming Palace.

As soon as she saw him entering the door, the queen immediately came forward and asked, "How is the situation?"

Situ Yan said with a rather ugly face: "My father sentenced me to beheading in public, and I have already been sent to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment. I'm afraid I won't be able to survive."

Situ Yan briefly told the Queen what happened in the Imperial Study Room. Although he did not hear the content of the conversation, he also had his own spies and knew the whole story.

It took the queen a while to calm down: "What should I do? If Wei Ying dies, how should I explain to my dead brother? My position as queen was supported by my brother with great effort. He got into trouble just to secure your position as the crown prince."

"Now that Wei Heng is dead, if there is no more Wei Ying, your position will be in jeopardy!"

"Yang Ming, you are this old guy. If he hadn't been the one who ruined Gu's plan and reported the matter to the father, the father would never have known about it!" When Yang Ming was mentioned, the prince's eyebrows surged with anger.

The queen clutched the armrests of the chair tightly, her face as cold as iron. After a long time, she said slowly: "Wei Ying cannot die. We must find a way to rescue him from the prison of the Ministry of Justice and send him to the border. If he dies, I will I will never have peace of mind for the rest of my life. Now that everyone in the Wei family has been killed, we must not get what they want."

Situ Yan's eyebrows moved: "The Queen Mother wants to rob the prison, but there are many guards in the prison of the Criminal Department, so this road is too risky."

The queen slowly shook her head: "We can use death row prisoners to die in the guard camp, as long as they are slightly disguised."

Situ Yan thought about it for a while, nodded and said, "My son, I will order someone to do it now. The queen can rest assured in the palace and wait for the news."

Weiying was imprisoned in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, and the news that he would be executed on a certain day spread throughout the capital. The people were overjoyed and rushed to tell each other.

The lost silver coins of the Su family were also returned, and Wang Hu officially took over the position of commander of the Kyoto Guard Battalion.

Naturally, the Jin Palace also received this good news.

Su Cheng came to Prince Jin's Mansion as soon as he came out of the palace. He smiled and said: "Your Majesty is so good at planning that he was able to persuade the county magistrate of Pingcheng to work for the prince. You must know that the magistrate of Pingcheng is usually very stubborn. I wonder how the prince persuaded him?"

Situ Jin looked at Su Ying and said, "This matter depends on the princess. If it weren't for her, this matter might not go so smoothly."

Everyone looked at Su Ying, and Su Ying smiled faintly: "Actually, it's because the son of the Pingcheng County Magistrate, although outstanding in literary talent, has suffered from heart disease since he was a child. I just made some medicine to help the heart disease and sent it to Pingcheng. He just stabilized his son's condition. Wang Jin is also a grateful person, but he is very principled. He promised to help us, but he had agreed in advance that he would never take bribes and bend the law. He also saw what we were planning. He was only willing to help us because no innocent people were harmed."

"Actually speaking, Mr. Wang is indeed a good official."

Situ Jinshen took it seriously and said: "If Wei Ying hadn't had bad moral character and always thought about making money and harming his life, how could he have followed our way? It seems that he brought it upon himself to give us the opportunity. If he were an official If people like Yang Ming and Wang Jin can fulfill their duties and make decisions for the people, then the world will be much more peaceful. In the final analysis, Weiying himself is too greedy."

Su Cheng nodded and said: "In the past few years in Pingcheng, I have learned that parents like Mr. Wang are indeed worthy of respect. But then again, will the queen and the prince really watch Wei Ying die with their own eyes?"

Situ Jin frowned and said: "The Queen and the Crown Prince are afraid that they may have some ulterior motives. Now that the decree is here, they will definitely not sit back and wait for death. I have sent people to watch the Ministry of Punishment day and night. I will never allow the Crown Prince's people to rescue Wei from the capital." .”

Although Situ Lin said that the Wei camp would be executed on a day, the date had not been set, which meant that there was still room for change in the Wei camp. However, Yang Ming did not give the other party time. Under the urging of him and other ministers, the date was finally set. Date of execution.

Finally, when the day of execution arrived, a prison van slowly drove out from the prison of the Ministry of Punishment. The man inside was unkempt and unkempt, wearing a white prison uniform. However, his eyes seemed a little dull, and he just stared at the crowd.

The prison car came out of the Criminal Department and was surrounded by people. Over the years, the Wei family has been extremely powerful. Although some people were not directly killed by the Wei camp, he was at least involved in the matter, so the people hated him.

The prison car stopped at Caishikou. Wei Ying was pulled out of the prison car and knelt on the execution platform. He looked confused.

The person in charge of this execution was Mr. Li from the Ministry of Punishment. After being identified, the officer came up and reported: "Sir, the prisoner has been brought here. It is indeed the guard camp."

In order to make sure nothing was wrong, Mr. Li stepped forward to check carefully. After confirming that the culprit was correct, he returned to the case and said: "Execution!"

Wei Ying's head was pressed on the beheading platform, and the sunlight shone on the executioner's sharpened knife. The white light reflected on Wei Ying's face. Wei Ying's eyes moved, and he looked at the crowd around him in disbelief. He whimpered and tried to speak, but no words came out.

Seeing the executioner holding up the extremely sharp ghost-headed knife, he struck hard at his neck. When the knife fell, the head fell to the ground and the body was separated.

The servants of the Wei family took the body back.

However, after the Wei family took the body back and examined it carefully, they found that the man was not disguised, but was undoubtedly Wei Ying himself. The Wei family hurried to the East Palace and passed the news to the prince. The prince was shocked and hurriedly entered the palace to meet him. queen.

When the queen heard this, she was extremely shocked: "How could this happen? Didn't you send someone to send the guard camp to Yancheng? Then shouldn't the people on the execution platform be the guard camp?"

The prince took the flying pigeon in his hand and handed it to the queen: "I just received this. Our people were ambushed outside the city. All our people were killed. The guard camp His whereabouts are unknown, I think it was this group of people who sent Wei Ying back to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, so the person on the execution platform is undoubtedly Wei Ying."

"Okay!" The Queen sneered again and again, and the next moment, she slapped the table with a heavy palm, and her delicate palms suddenly turned red: "Situ Jin had only been back for a few months, but his hand had already reached the Ministry of Justice, and the century-old foundation of the Wei family had been destroyed. In the hands of Yu Shuzi, if I had known that I should not have released him back to Jincheng in the first place, I should have killed him to death."

Situ Yan was also irritated and walked back and forth in the hall at this moment: "It's my fault that I underestimated the enemy. If more people were sent to escort the guard camp..."

The Queen stroked her stinging forehead: "It's too late to say anything now, but fortunately the Queen Mother and Prince Su are about to return to Beijing. We are not too passive. Half of the Wei family's roots are in the border areas. As long as Wei State If you still guard Yancheng, your position as prince will be untouchable, but we must be more careful in our actions in the future. The emperor has begun to be dissatisfied with the Wei family, so we must not act recklessly again."

The palace was clearly burning with fine silver charcoal, and it was as warm as summer, but the Queen and Situ Yan felt a coldness rising from the bottom of their hearts, spreading through their limbs and bones.
