Chapter 7
This breath of cool air twitched, and instantly made the shadow discover that there was another person here, Qin Shuo hurriedly took a few steps back and hid in the stable, but it had no effect at all, and the shadow instantly arrived in front of his eyes. The dagger was already up to his neck, but it stopped. At this time, Qin Shuo saw this shadow clearly!
She wore a mask, which looked like a woman from her hair, silver hair, and a black tightsuit that wrapped herself so tightly that she couldn't see anything at all, except for the silver-white eyes that the mask revealed! When Qin Shuo quickly finished reading these things, more than ten seconds passed, but this person still only used a dagger against his neck, but Qin Shuo vaguely felt a strange feeling, this person's murderous aura seemed to slowly fade down, and his sharp and cold eyes were slowly retracted, the man slowly withdrew his arm, Qin Shuo was surprised, but was interrupted by the voice of the guard.
"Mayor Mayor, Mayor Town!" the footsteps of several guards came quickly, and as soon as the man heard this, he jumped onto the outer wall in a few steps, looked back at Qin Shuo, and then turned his head and disappeared. At this time, the guards finally saw the mayor who fell to the ground, and Xue Jing also hurriedly followed, slowly helping the mayor who only had one breath left. Xue Jing shouted with tears in his eyes: "Father, father, who is it, tell me quickly!" Holding his father, Xue Jing was completely out of control, Qin Shuo walked out of the stable, and saw the mayor leaning on Xue Jing's cheek and said something softly, and then pointed at me, so he tilted his head and swallowed. Qin Shuo felt that his father should mean that Qin Shuo had seen the whole process and asked Xue Jing to ask Qin Shuo.
Qin Shuo slowly approached Xue Jing and saw that Xue Jing had slowly flattened the mayor and covered his eyes. Qin Shuo was about to open his mouth to tell him about the process, but Xue Jing stood up with a swish and said to the guards: "Arrest Qin Shuo for me, my father said that he colluded with outsiders to assassinate my father." As soon as these words came out, the two guards immediately rushed to Qin Shuo's side and set him up.
"What? No. Qin Shuo panicked all of a sudden, how could this be the result. "Your father was killed by a female assassin, I don't know him, I just ..... myself. Before he finished speaking, Xue Jing punched Qin Shuo's stomach, and Qin Shuo couldn't say anything in pain.
"Are you still arguing? Is what my father said before he died still false? That is, you, who are not satisfied with my approach on weekdays, not only have a grudge, but even collude with outsiders to assassinate my father. Everyone present can prove it!" Xue Jing roared loudly, his eyes bloodshot from excitement, not at all like he was joking. Seeing this, the guards didn't delay much, and directly threw Qin Shuo into the cage of the death row prisoner, waiting for the next development of the matter.
Qin Shuo, who was thrown into prison, quickly stood up.
"I didn't kill the mayor. Qin Shuo shouted hysterically, grabbing the iron bars of the prison and shaking it vigorously, but it was useless, the two guards looked back at him with a sneer and shook their heads, and left without saying anything.
And Qin Shuo still roared unresignedly, until he was tired of roaring, and after realizing that this was already an established fact, he finally gave up, sat in the corner of the wall with his head bowed, and no longer had any reaction. At the age of fourteen, he has just begun to mature mentally, and there is no way to accept this cruel truth, he still has a father who loves him more than everything, and that genius friend who needs him to pursue, and the future he looks forward to, and much, many more. All of this was inexplicably overnight and was about to disappear completely.
He became a murderer and assassinated an imperial official. The death penalty was inevitable, and at the thought of this, two lines of clear tears fell, but immediately, a wave of anger immediately took over his brain. Although he and Xue Jing have a lot of unhappiness with each other, most of them are childish conflicts between children, and there is no real hatred and hatred. But this time, Xue Jing did too much, this is a matter of human life, Xue Jing actually decided to let Qin Shuo be the scapegoat so hastily, and let the real murderer get away with it. "Xue Jing!" Qin Shuo roared out his last voice of the night.
The next morning, he sat alone in the cold cage after a sleepless night, and the footsteps of several people were heard not far away. Qin Shuo didn't want to look up, but soon heard a familiar voice.
It was my father! He was startled and immediately stood up. Seeing Qin Yu coming slowly, the guilt and fear in his heart occupied his heart. The guilt is that as a child, he may not be able to recover this seemingly ironclad fact because of his own reasons, and there is no way to accompany his father in the future. The fear is that he is about to face the execution, and he is very scared at this moment.
"Qin Shuo, my child. Qin Yu opened his bloodshot eyes, and his rough palm stroked Qin Shuo's cheek, erasing the two lines of tears that made his heart ache for him.
"Father, I...."Qin Shuo couldn't say any more. With his head down, he didn't know how to face his father.
"Needless to say, I know it all. Forgive my father for my incompetence, and my father will beg the consul again to let him take a closer look at this matter..."Not only Qin Shuo suppressed his emotions, but Qin Yu was the same, and the two lines of crystal tears couldn't stop falling.
"No need" Qin Shuo raised his head and looked at his father firmly, Qin Shuo knew the relationship between the consul and the mayor's family, and I am afraid that there was no room for maneuver in this matter. Besides, coupled with Xue Jing's provocation and fabrication of facts, I am afraid that the entire town of Miliam will feel that the mayor really killed himself.
"So what to do, I really can't just watch you being wronged to death, I can only do whatever I can to redeem it. Before the words fell, Xue Jing's voice came.
"Wronged?" Xue Jing walked in and glared at Qin Shuo's father and son angrily, "You said wronged?" Is what my father said when he left still false, although I don't know how he colluded with outsiders to assassinate my father, but it is an ironclad fact that he was involved. Xue Jing pointed at Qin Shuo's father and son and said firmly. As soon as Qin Yu saw Buda coming, he immediately knelt down in front of him.
"Young Master Xue Jing, please investigate this matter thoroughly, Qin Shuo will not be able to do such a thing. Xue Jing kicked Qin Yu down, ignoring his plea at all. At this time, Xue Jing's face was full of sinisterness, and Qin Shuo could hardly imagine that this kind of expression would actually appear on the face of a child less than fifteen years old.
"Father, don't beg him. Qin Shuo watched his father kneel for others for him, and his heart was like a knife.
"And a few of you, didn't I say he wasn't allowed to be visited?! If there is a next time, you will all fuck me off. Xue Jing pointed to the guards who accompanied him in and drank down. The two guards hurriedly said "yes, yes",
"Then what are you doing in a daze?" Xue Jing gave an order, and the two guards mercilessly put the struggling Qin Yu out. Xue Jing slowly walked in front of Qin Shuo and said.
"The consul's order has been given, and tomorrow is the day of execution, and I want you to pay with blood. Buda glared at Qin Shuo, but Qin Shuo had no desire to struggle at this time, turned around and said nothing, sat in the corner and closed his eyes. He knew that anything he said would be in vain.
At noon the next day, Qin Shuo, who was already in deep despair, was finally taken out of the prison, and when he went out, he saw his father kneeling at the prison gate, his eyes were red. He begged the guards to give him three minutes and Qin Shuo to say a few last words. Seeing this, the two guards saw that he was pitiful, so they let go of Qin Shuo. Qin Yu hugged his child tightly and said excitedly: "Child, it's all my father's fault, it's my father who is too incompetent." ”
Qin Shuo shook his head and said firmly: "Don't talk about father like that, you are the best father I have ever seen, the best father in the world, it is my own problem, don't blame yourself anymore." Blame it on Xue Jing!" Speaking of this, Qin Yu couldn't stop shedding tears, feeling full of regret and guilt.
Qin Shuo helped Qin Yu wipe his tears, and then knelt in front of Qin Yu. "Father, I'm sorry, I can't serve you anymore!" After saying that, he kowtowed heavily, and the guards also came directly to set up Qin Shuo again. Let Qin Yu cry and shout behind him, and finally took Qin Shuo to the execution table in the town square.
