Chapter 272: Presumptuous
I practiced the disguise technique, and the minutes and seconds passed, and soon, the sky gradually brightened.
At this moment, in this imperial city, early in the morning, Dong Jichun and the others, under the emperor's instructions, quickly rushed to the palace prison!
At that moment, the cell head and those jailers who were in charge of guarding the prison all looked very indifferent, as if nothing had happened, but in their hearts, there was some secret nervousness, because last night, they received a surprise attack, and all the jailers in the entire prison were unconscious for half an hour!
It was a big deal, but when the cell boss and the jailers woke up and counted the prisoners in the cell, they found no suspicious signs, and no prisoners escaped! After all, if the emperor knew about this matter, it would be a crime of dereliction of duty and he would be beheaded!
"Tsk, Wu Bohou, who was still infinitely divided yesterday, is now like a dead pig, it's really interesting, haha!" Soon, when he arrived at the cell, Dong Jichun looked at 'me' who was unconscious in the cell, his face was very proud, and after entering, he kicked it and found that 'I' didn't react. He sneered and ordered his men to drag me out!
A few minutes later, 'I' was taken to the royal execution ground!
At that moment, when 'I' was put on the beheading platform, everyone's eyes also converged, and their expressions were complicated, some sympathetic, some unbearable, and some indifferent!
As for the emperor sitting on the dragon throne, his face was also deep, and at the same time, his eyes revealed a trace of anger! Obviously, the night has passed, and the emperor has not extinguished the fire!
Only the crown prince Huang Xin, who was standing beside the emperor, was full of complexity and worry at the moment, seeing that the time for execution was about to come, Huang Xin took a deep look at the 'me' on the execution ground in the distance, and pleaded with the emperor: "Father, please think again..."
Before this, Huang Xin was very anxious when he learned about my situation, and he didn't know how many times he pleaded with the emperor last night, but the emperor never let go, not only that, but also scolded Huang Xin for this.
In the face of the emperor's resoluteness, Huang Xin originally gave up pleading, but seeing the situation in front of him, Huang Xin still couldn't bear it, after all, as a master, I taught him a lot of things in the previous time, so Huang Xin, who is kind-hearted, still doesn't want to see his master die in front of him! Although the master made that kind of clothes for his mother, Huang Xin still felt that the master was not guilty of death.
"I have already told you very clearly before! Do you really not understand? As the emperor, I must make a statement, if I take back my destiny now, how will the whole world view me? Also, now that you are the crown prince, you must also be like me, with clear rewards and punishments, and you must not have the slightest mercy, otherwise, you will not be able to establish the emperor's authority!"
At that moment, without waiting for Huang Xin to finish speaking, the emperor snorted coldly and interrupted Huang Xin's words! In the end, he glanced at Huang Xin, his eyes flashed with a stunning gaze, and said coldly: "If you have this kind of woman's heart again, I have to consider whether it was a wise decision to make you the crown prince before!"
"Son. Erchen understood!" Huang Xin was covered in a cold sweat when he heard this, especially when he felt the strong oppressive force permeating the emperor's body, Huang Xin's heart trembled, and he didn't dare to intercede for me rashly!
Master, I'm sorry, I did my best!
While bowing his head to the emperor and responding respectfully, Huang Xin's eyes also glanced at 'me' on the execution ground, and said with a trace of sadness in his heart!
However, at that moment, Huang Xin didn't notice at all that the 'I' who was pushed on the beheading table was motionless at the moment, as if dead, although the figure and face were the same as me, but that decadent and paralyzed appearance was not the real me at all, and the negative temperament I possessed.
"Your Majesty, the hour has come!"
At this time, Dong Jichun, who hosted the execution, saluted the emperor and shouted respectfully!
The emperor nodded, his eyes revealing a trace of murderous intent and coldness, and he raised his hand to signal!
Suddenly, at the emperor's suggestion, Dong Jichun stood up, unfolded the emperor's edict in his hand, and read it out loud to the surrounding civil and military officials, as well as those Praetorian Guards, and guards: "The rebel minister Lin Bai, vainly accepted the heavy responsibility of me, during the period of the palace and the prince's teaching, he lacked virtue, rebelled, and talked about the cholera palace with strange words.
When he read this, Dong Jichun's face was full of respect, revealing a hint of a sinister smile, which even urged the internal force, and the voice spread throughout the entire execution ground!
"Slash!"
After reading it, Dong Jichun put away the emperor's edict and shouted at the executioner on the beheading platform!
Swish... Poof!
In an instant, as soon as Dong Jichun's words fell, the executioner let out a low shout, and the giant axe in his hand swung down suddenly, and suddenly, with a blood line spurting high, the head of 'Lin Bai' kneeling there flew out
