Ling Xueji gritted her teeth in hatred, "This empress has so much power, why don't she just ascend the throne! What's going on!"

"Now she has internal troubles and troubles again, and the right time, place and people are not the same. Calculated, she is not much better than us." Wei Yueyan explained and suddenly felt a strange pleasure from the bottom of her heart. Pleasure|feeling is probably called schadenfreude.But he was quickly stared at by his wife.

"If the plan is not well formulated, Chang Hou will not dare to act recklessly. Killing the king is as easy as hell. Once the emperor dies, Chang's series of plans must be completed before the court elects the crown prince as emperor."

Wei Yueyan explained here that he suddenly felt something connected for a moment, but it disappeared soon.It was Ling Jiang who was on the side who connected the string for him, "We were not sure whether His Majesty was alive or dead, but as usual, looking at it now, the answer is already obvious."

Everyone was startled when they heard the words, this was indeed a blind spot that they hadn't considered before.All along, they only thought that Emperor Yulong was no longer a threat to Empress Chang, so this factor was not considered in the plan, but since Empress Chang is still afraid of this, it is enough to show—

Emperor Yulong is still alive.

Ling Jiang suddenly got up and started to walk out, but was called by his daughter.

"Where is Daddy going?"

Ling Qiufan watched in bewilderment as Ling Jiang took out a brocade bag embroidered with dragons and painted gold from the ebony box he brought with him, and after the knot was untied, a dazzling yellow gold medal was revealed.

"This is……"

When Ling Qiufan was still carefully deciphering the words on the gold medal, Wei Yueyan recognized it first, her voice almost trembling, "Token for avoiding death?! Father-in-law, you actually have a token for avoiding death!"

The gold medal for avoiding death is the meaning of avoiding death. This token shows that even if there are 1 people who are unwilling, they must let them go obediently.Everyone was overjoyed, only Ling Qiufan was still a little unsure, "But daddy, now that the emperor has been imprisoned, is this gold medal for avoiding death still valid?"

"That's natural." Ling Jiang replied decisively: "This gold medal was bestowed by Emperor Yulong himself. The so-called king is not joking, even if he is imprisoned now, as long as the gold medal is still there, and he is still alive, the promise still counts."

Ling Jiang's words fell to the ground with a sound, and he firmly knocked the hesitant nails on everyone's hearts one by one, "Even if Empress Chang doesn't want to, she can only follow the holy will. After all, she is just a queen now."

On the eve of leaving Beijing that year, Emperor Yulong bestowed this gold medal for avoiding death.

But at that time, his old friend was dead, the Qu family was overthrown, and he had already resigned his official position and was about to go to Wu County. With the gold medal in his hand, who could he save?It's nothing but sarcasm.

Ling Jiang sighed, "Now it seems that there is a cause and effect in everything, and everything changes, and there are some arrangements in the dark."

***

The four-clawed golden dragons are either coiled or flying, and the exquisitely carved screens are lined up a foot wide.The characteristic of golden nanmu moving from place to place and changing scenery is brought into full play under the weak candlelight, and the brilliance flows in the half dark and half light, and in the dark room, the whole throne platform seems to be shining.

But what was incompatible with it, on the throne platform where the dragon chair was originally placed, was a coffin that was extremely eye-catching horizontally. Although it was also made of golden nanmu, it had an indescribable weirdness.

After Chang Hou walked to the throne platform, she found what she was looking for from the gap between the screen and the wall.

The dragon robe was crumpled and stuck to his body, and the imperial crown rolled aside and no one picked it up. If you didn't look carefully, you would not be able to recognize that the huddled one was Emperor Yulong, the Great Xia Supreme.

"Absurd...absurd..."

He muttered to himself and tied it to the jade hairpin that lifted his chin, the cold touch was like a letter spit out by a poisonous snake, lingering on the soft flesh.

"Ridiculous?" Chang Hou seemed to hear something funny, and even the jade hairpin she was holding trembled slightly with the movement of her body.Emperor Yulong's eyes widened in horror, and he could not see the sun for dozens of days and nights. He was accompanied by only a ostentatious throne and a resting place after his death, and a series of "favorable treatment" specially arranged for him. The emperor's spirit has been damaged to the point of being extremely fragile, as if he would snap if he breathed heavily.

But Chang Hou remained unmoved, stepped on this slender and sensitive nerve, and had to crush it twice.

"Why don't you think it's absurd when you forcefully marry the daughter of an enemy country? Why don't you think it's absurd when you listen to the slander and kill Zhongliang? Why don't you think it's absurd when you give a female wife as a minister to balance the power in the court and make them lose both?" Why don’t you think it’s absurd when you know that people have rebellious intentions and give him Yugui for dispatching troops? …Absurd? Hah.”

Chang's back fingers are pressed hard, and the pointed end of the jade hairpin is pushed in again. The deep voice wants to exhaust the inner substance. The dry and hoarse fleshy hissing sounded in the dark room with a heavy breath. "In the whole Great Xia, the most ridiculous person... is you, the Holy One."

"I, I want to tear you into pieces!"

Emperor Yulong's eyes were red, and he tried to support himself with both hands but fell back heavily.The severely shriveled sleeve robe was like a bird that had lost its life, sliding down into the sky with the scattered feathers on its body.

Out of the corner of Chang Hou's eyes, Chang Hou caught a glimpse, and the corner of his mouth was already raised, "Are you so resistant? Even if your tendons are broken, you still have to try your best to get out of that coffin."

Daxia's clothing all have specifications, the cloth width is limited by the specifications, but the Dulong robe is not limited.Because the emperor's clothes pay attention to "seamless clothes", the dragon robe made by the special machine tool is not easy to draw, and if you want to hook the dragon robe into such a miserable appearance, it is definitely impossible to do it according to the usual operation.Only when Emperor Yulong pulled out the coffin with all his hands and feet, could he be cut into pieces by the sharp spikes on the coffin.

She knelt down and watched with great interest the majestic emperor who once sat upright in the hall shivering like a child who had been abused. She couldn't help but have an imperceptible hint of favor in her tone, "What's the matter? You are the king. , The king will sleep in such a coffin for a hundred years, I just let you rest early, isn't it good?"

The throne platform is made of golden nanmu, which is the same as that on the Golden Luan Hall. It is supreme and honorable, and you are still the king of Daxia.It's just that there are no officials worshiping in front of the throne, and the palms that once held the jade seal are empty.

You think you are in control of the supreme power of the Great Xia Dynasty, but you are actually just the nearest slave who crawled under this temptation. You have been manipulated by power and enslaved by power all your life.

"How? Is it good to feel like you can only watch with your eyes open, but you can no longer control it?"

Emperor Yulong's dry lips began to vibrate undetectably, and gradually the trembling became more and more obvious. He whimpered in his throat and didn't know what he was saying. Chang Hou frowned slightly and leaned forward to listen carefully. The yelling rang in her ears, shaking her whole body backwards.Empress Chang, who was still in shock, suddenly got up, raised her hand and stabbed the jade hairpin directly into Emperor Yulong's thigh, Emperor Yulong trembled and continued to howl, and the long-handled jade hairpin fell one by one following Empress Chang's anger... At this moment, a Silently, the figure sneaked into the dark room and knelt down beside Chang Hou, a scorpion with a hooked tail on its neck beating slightly with breathing.

"The former prime minister, Ling Jiang, held the gold medal to avoid death and asked to see him outside the hall."

The jade hairpin that was about to fall again froze in the air, and a cold look flashed in Chang Rongke's unbelievable eyes.

***

Standing outside the palace gate in the night, Ling Jiang waited for a death knell that resounded throughout the imperial city.

Then Prime Minister Ling was in a mess amidst the [-] death knells that followed. A servant stumbled over, panting like a cow and sounding like a gossamer, "Your Majesty is dead!"

The emperor collapsed, and the death knell sounded thirty thousand.

The mighty momentum resounded throughout the world, leaving a deep shock and—sequelae—in the hearts of the people of Jinling.

When Qu Quan was brought to the execution ground, the bell was still ringing all night in her mind, so that she didn't hear clearly what kind of bullshit the old men at the prison were talking about.

It's terrible, no one will be allowed to sleep for the last night, and death row prisoners have human rights!You bastards!When I'm in prison, no one cares about Xia Lv! !

Qu Quan's heart roared amidst the bells ringing one after another.

***

On the execution platform, Wei Yueyan was also in a bad mood. Before Ling Jiang came back, they heard the death knell, and the last hope was lost in the [-] death knells.Right now the number of government soldiers is not enough, it is too reckless to forcibly force the palace, so the preparation for so long must not be repaid here, but it is not easy to let Qu Quan survive until noon.

What's worse is that Qu Quan has no, no, knowledge, or affection for all of this!

The reflection on the sundial moved little by little with the change of the sun, and the scorching sun approaching noon scorched the restless heart inch by inch, and it was less than a quarter to three o'clock in the afternoon.

People on the execution platform are still having headaches, but those on Xingtai are beginning to be dishonest.

Then Wei Yueyan heard a voice that made her even more dizzy.

"General Wei, did you not sleep well?"

He was so haggard that he didn't forget to mix some jokes into it, and he didn't need to look to know who the source of the sound was.

Wei Yueyan raised his eyes in disgust, and replied very shamelessly: "Qu Dashangshu is very energetic, and when he is about to die, he still has the leisure to tease others."

Qu Quan smiled and turned his head away and then turned around, the smile still remained on the corner of his mouth.This smile was so shallow that Wei Yueyan was stunned for a moment, Qu Quan's hands were tied behind his back, his black hair had obviously been taken care of, but he was brutally treated on the way to Xingtai, so he was still a little messy.The sun shone warmly on the slightly messy temple hair, fainting the edge of the orange gold, and everything suddenly returned to the past, and back and forth were nothing more than daily bickering in front of the Golden Temple.

Somehow, he added another sentence: "I don't know if there will be people like you in the future."

"I don't know if there will be someone like General Wei in the future." Qu Quan greeted him with a smile, his amber eyes became brighter and brighter in the sunlight, "The cunning rabbit is dead, the lackey is cooking, I, Qu Quan, will die today." , How long will General Wei be able to enjoy himself?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was shocked.

It is said that people who are about to die have good words, but no one thought that Qu Dashangshu wanted to bring one with him before he died.

Wei Yueyan clenched his fingers in the corners of the case angrily, and his bones made a "clack" rubbing sound, which made all the officials on the surveillance stage tremble, fearing that Yan, who was on the battlefield, would block and kill gods and Buddhas. What did the prince do on this execution ground?Unexpectedly, instead of doing anything wrong, Yan Wang stood up with a smile like a flower, strolled leisurely to the execution platform in the prison area, squinted his long eyes and watched condescendingly for a while, "Qu Your Excellency's words are interesting, but this general can't understand. This general has just made great contributions to the court, and now he is shoveling out traitors for the emperor. Although it is not a great achievement, it can be regarded as fulfilling the duty of a minister. How can he become a big mouth The dying person in the middle?"

"You are asking the right person for this question." Qu Quan slightly moved his body and looked at his knees that were pinned down on the ground with some annoyance. And that's just me."

Wei Yueyan raised his eyebrows, "I would like to hear the details."

"Is it necessary to explain in detail?" Qu Quan saw the retarded expression on his face, "Look at me, don't you understand?"

Wei Yueyan stared blankly at Qu Quan from the head to the feet, then from the feet to the head, and suddenly punched a fist on the pillar of the execution platform, and the entire observation platform was shaken by this fist.

"Bold Qu Quan, when he is about to die, he dares to point fingers at Sang, scold Huai, and slander His Majesty!"

As soon as this remark came out, even the onlookers understood the meaning. Qu Quan's reputation is not uncommon in Jinling City. The innocent people who died in the bloody case sought justice, and then borrowed troops to reinforce Long Xi, guarding the border|border|country|land for Daxia, and indeed won a lot of good reputation.

It is really chilling for such a loyal person to be framed by a traitor and beheaded by the king.

Some boldly voiced their dissatisfaction immediately, and some people took the lead and the majority of the people stopped being silent, and one, two, ten, or hundreds began to protest one after another.

All the ministers in the supervision area couldn't sit still, and one of them directly took the case and yelled: "Shut up! Say one more word, and you will be punished as a crime of disrespect!"

Although the common people are afraid of crimes and punishments, they also know that the law does not blame everyone. People from several workshops in Jinling City are here today.Therefore, not only was this threat ineffective, but it was like boiling oil into a fire, creating a vast ocean of public opinion in an instant.

The officials had seen a lot of big scenes, but today the target of beheading was Qu Quan, whom they would not dare to touch in normal times, and the common people made such a fuss again, they could only turn their attention to Wei Yueyan for help.

Originally thought that Lord Hades would make some earth-shattering words, but he didn't expect that she would stride down the prison beheading platform in front of the officials who were looking at each other without saying a word? ? ?

The sun was falling on Wei Yueyan's face, half of Huarong was hidden in the shadow under the blue hair, and the other half was smiling brightly, so it really looked like the Shura of Purgatory they had passed on from mouth to mouth, blood flowed between smiles but not smiles Floating pestle, corpses piled into mountains.

"General Wei is wrong. How can I accuse Sang and scold Huai..." Qu Quan lowered his eyes and looked a little aggrieved.

"Oh?" Wei Yueyan sneered, "Master Qu, how else do you want to defend yourself?"

"Why do you have to go round and round when you scold the current saint?" Qu Quan tilted his head slightly, "I'm just scolding directly."

"Master Qu, what a sharp mouth." Wei Yueyan also followed her, "No matter how sharp your lips and teeth are, I don't know, is it worth this guillotine?"

Hearing the sound, Qu Quan raised his face, his amber eyes burst out with aggressive spirit, "Maybe the general might as well give it a try?"

After the words fell, Wei Yueyan's boots had already stepped on the edge of Xingtai, and he pressed the handle of the guillotine with one hand, "Master Qu's head is on the neck, I will cut it off!"

The beheading officer on the Xingxing platform didn't have time to put back the staring eyeballs, and the supervisor on the beheading platform jumped up in a row in fright, "General Wei, what are you doing-!!"

The sound of the last word disappeared in the sound of piercing metal breaking, Wei Yueyan flipped his wrist, and the knife on the guillotine table was removed by Wei Yueyan with the handle raised high——

The sun quietly leaves the middle sky, and falls on the delicate stone carvings, which has long been deflected;

The sound of horseshoes raising dust is faintly heard in the distance;

A group of officials who were stunned by the two people's glances and my words finally found the shadow needle on the sundial that had already pointed to the beginning of the future, and woke up one by one;

The cloud swallow with black feathers and long tail flew from thousands of miles away and landed on the Huabiao pillar, and joined the white feathered bird that had been waiting for a long time——

Qu Quan suddenly raised his head and shouted loudly: "If you don't move now, when will you wait!"

The sound is the same as the knife falls, and the arrows rain out!
