Chapter 147: Killing Chickens and Monkeys
A group of singers and dancers retreated, and the Hall of Heroes became unusually quiet, when eight wrestlers walked in carrying a huge fine iron cage.
There was a foul smell of blood coming out of this huge cage, and although it was separated by a black baffle, everyone could guess that it should contain some kind of powerful bloodthirsty beast!
"The widow is the founder of the country, and you are the founding ministers, at this celebration banquet, it must be to let everyone drink happily, so the widow came up with a little game to cheer up all Aiqing, I hope you can guess what is in this cage!
Everyone was nervous when they heard this, because now that there is such a big movement, it is definitely not a fun game, and maybe it will kill people!
"Zhen Guogong, guess first?" the emperor asked with a smile at Li Zhifan.
"Wechen is already drunk, so let's let the others guess. Li Zhifan didn't mean to play the game at all, because from the time this huge cage was carried into the palace, he had already sensed what was inside.
"Since Zhenguo Gong is a little drunk, let's start with others, can anyone else guess it?" the emperor asked everyone again.
Everyone looked at each other, no one knew what kind of medicine was sold in the emperor's gourd, so naturally no one dared to take the lead in speaking.
At this time, the emperor smiled again and said, "Since everyone doesn't dare to guess, why don't you go in and take a look, Taiwei Hong, why don't you go in first and take a look?"
"The old minister is old, his legs and feet are inconvenient, just now the old minister thought about it, and finally judged one or two, the old minister felt that this cage was locked up with a fierce beast! I don't know if the old minister can guess right?" "Taiwei Hong doesn't dare to enter the cage, if he really goes in, maybe he will die!"
"Haha, I didn't guess right! Taiwei Hong still wants to punish a glass of wine!" said the emperor with a smile.
"The old minister has the order! Thank you for the emperor's reward!" Taiwei Hong hurriedly raised his wine glass and drank it all, and his hanging heart finally relaxed a little.
Everyone saw that Taiwei Hong was safe, and thought that if they didn't guess the things in the cage, they might be worried about their lives, so they guessed at this moment.
"Emperor Qi, Weichen thinks this is a first-grade spirit beast!"
"Emperor Qi, Wei Chen thinks that this is not only a first-grade spirit beast, but also a more ferocious first-grade spirit beast!
"Emperor Qi, the old slave thinks this is a Xuantian python!"
“......”
After a while, the hall was full of chatter, and everyone talked about what kind of beast it was.
"Haha! It's all wrong! You Aiqing must punish yourself three cups this time! If no one can guess, the widow will reveal the real answer!" After the emperor finished speaking, he clapped his hands, and the great eunuch Hu Sen hurriedly ordered eight wrestlers to open the baffle!
A creaking sound sounded, and at this time, everyone saw some stumps and broken arms hanging in the cage, some were still dripping blood, and there was a very strong smell of blood.
On the floor of the cage lay two people stained with blood, but these two people had already lost their limbs, and the stump hanging above the cage was cut off from these two people!
When everyone saw this scene, they gasped in fright, because this kind of method was so cruel! The Chinese Empire had not had this kind of capital punishment for thousands of years!
"Do you know the two people in this cage?" the emperor asked with a smile.
Everyone was silent, wondering which unlucky guy had been cut like this?
Seeing that everyone didn't speak, the emperor continued to smile and said, "A long time ago, there was a punishment in the empire called Renbi, and the widow has always wanted to see what the legendary Renbi looks like, so he let the eldest princess and the queen of the previous dynasty perform it, I don't know if this satisfies everyone?"
When he heard this, the audience was silent, who would have thought that the emperor would do such a cruel thing on the first day of his accession to the throne!
At this time, an old man stepped forward tremblingly and said, "Your Majesty! With all due respect to the old minister, this kind of capital punishment will hurt Tianhe! Moreover, the eldest princess and the queen are both golden branches and jade leaves, so they should be given to death with royal etiquette!"
"Hehe, Lord Shangshu is really knowledgeable, and he thinks so thoughtfully, but the widow just wants to see what the capital punishment was like before, since Lord Shangshu thinks that these two people are golden branches and jade leaves, then he can only let Lord Shangshu do it for him! Hu Sen, the widow really wants to see what it looks like after the eight pieces are dismantled. The emperor said with a smile.
"The old slave obeys!"
Hu Sen immediately ordered eight wrestlers to capture Lord Shangshu and prepare to dismantle him in eight pieces!
"Unreasonable! You will make people angry like this! Everyone will be punished for the chaos and thieves! The old man is afraid that you will not succeed!"
Lord Shangshu was originally an old minister of the emperor of the previous dynasty, and changing the dynasty overnight could not change his heart, he originally wanted to hold back, and when the time came, he waited for the opportunity to move, but he didn't expect to provoke himself to a disaster!
"Hehe, the widow is the Son of Heaven, and all the decisions of the widow are the will of God! You deceive the king, you are the rebellious minister and thief who everyone will be punished, right? What are you waiting for, immediately dismantle this person into eight pieces!" the emperor shouted loudly.
The eight wrestlers are not ordinary first-grade bloodline masters, these are the strongest eight people selected from the Black Dragon Guard, and there are really few people who can defeat these eight wrestlers on the scene!
Although Lord Shangshu is a second-grade bloodline master, he usually cultivates himself and does not know how to use the power of bloodline to fight with others.
For the emperor's cruel practice, everyone actually knows that in this turbulent situation, it is also very necessary to kill chickens and monkeys!
"Hu Sen, let people carry the cage down, these two women should be fed well, and they will be fat and fat! When the widow sets foot on Ziyun Mountain, he will sacrifice the two of them to the sky. The emperor said with a smile.
"The old slave obeys!"
Hu Sen immediately asked eight wrestlers to carry the cage away, but at this time, Li Zhifan suddenly said, "Forget it, killing people is not enough, Weichen can't see this kind of thing, let's give them a good time!"
After Li Zhifan finished speaking, he waved his hand, and a ball of Vermilion Bird Divine Fire wrapped the fine iron cage and burned it, and in the blink of an eye, the cage and the two women inside were all burned to ashes.
The emperor looked at Li Zhifan with a smile, and then said, "Zhenguo Gong is really a bodhisattva, I heard that the queen and the eldest princess of the previous dynasty were very hostile to Zhenguo Gong, but I didn't expect that in the end, it was Zhenguo Gong who helped them get free!"
"Your Majesty, Weichen is not strong enough to drink, he is dizzy at the moment, and his brain is not very clear, if there is any offense, please forgive the emperor, Weichen will retire!"
After Li Zhifan finished speaking, he took Ye Wentian and Li Chengfeng away, and as soon as the three of them left, Bai Qiu on the side looked stupidly at the sky above the hall and muttered, "It's a pity that such a good soul is a pity!"
