296, panicked
As the time passed, the sun gradually reached the top of everyone's heads (noon), and the civilians and judges on and off the court felt the sweltering heat, and the impatient magistrates also felt that the time was almost up, so they prepared to read the edict and declare the crimes of the officials and others led by the Chancellor of the Exchequer!
"It's almost time, everyone is quiet!!"
As soon as the judge gave the order, all the people in the execution ground fell silent! Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info.
"Before the execution, I will first read out the latest edict on the imperial capital decided by His Majesty and His Royal Highness!"
"In the xxxx year of the history of the empire, the empire has been reduced from the original tax to ... In order to restore the peace of the people in the imperial capital! In the next five years, all shops and stalls opened by civilians will not have to pay taxes. At the same time, a special reporting department was set up in the imperial capital, which was directly responsible for the assassination department of the imperial capital。。。 All civilians can join forces with an official who has violated the laws of the Empire, and after being investigated and confirmed, they will be taken directly to the Imperial Capital Execution Ground for public execution。。。 Chin!"
The former Chancellor of the Exchequer xxxx and his henchmen, in recent years, have embezzled each other's financial revenues from the imperial capital, enriching their own pockets, and a huge amount of them, and now they have been investigated and punished, and all their family and personal wealth have been confiscated, and some of their accomplices have been exiled... The current former Minister of Finance xxxx and his henchmen are sentenced to capital punishment for the major crime of embezzling the imperial capital's financial revenues, and will be executed immediately!!"
"Start now!! "The criminal officer waved his hand, signaling that it was time to begin.
As the judge's hand fell in vain, the executioners waved their butcher's knives one after another, and the knives fell, blood flashed, and heads fell to the ground...
The hideous and frightened head rolled to the ground, which immediately frightened the civilians present, and everyone took several steps back, until a moment, they exclaimed with joy.
These corrupt officials are finally finished...
"By the way, the people of Okana Turtle Sun asked me to collect protection money two days ago! I plan to go to the Imperial Capital Report Office now and report him! Do any of you go with me?" a civilian suddenly shouted to the crowd.
"I'll go! The people of the turtle sun also found my wife to collect protection money!5 gold coins! That's my income for nearly a month~ They snatched it away, and Lao Tzu had to report Oka and his men!! "A civilian responded angrily!
"I'll go too, and so will I!"
"And me~"
"Take me! I'm going to report the oil merchant Jamal together!"
"Yes!
"Yes, report it together! Dare to sell me grain and oil at a high price... I can't sue him. ”
When it comes to Oka and the captain of the Imperial Capital Garrison, everyone hates them to the core! Not to mention that he allows his subordinates to collect a large amount of protection money from them, and he also colludes with the oil merchant Jamal to sell them grain and cooking oil at high prices, illegally making huge profits, and also planting and killing many innocent people, even they know this, and there is no reason not to report him!!
The commoners rallied and ganged up to the nearest Imperial Capital to report the news, and some of the officials and servants disguised as civilians heard the news... Especially when I heard that these lowly civilians were going to report their own adults, they were terrified, but they knew some of the crimes committed by their own adults... If their own adults are gone, they will inevitably be implicated.
In this regard, some of them chose to stop it, but they were beaten by the united civilian army, and some went to report to their own adults, but when they finished reporting and then returned, I am afraid they have all finished reporting~
And some clever servants, in the blink of an eye, chose to run away...
。。。
Chancellor Earnest's house
When Earnest received news from his servants, he was not surprised by the news that there were many civilians who wanted to report him, but he felt that there were quite a few people who wanted to report him...
It's just that His Highness and His Majesty Ollistin will really deal with him? This is a question, and he believes that His Highness will not be unaware, but knows better than himself! At this time, I believe that His Highness is also making a difficult choice? Should he keep him? Or let him die?
But it should be more likely that he will stay, right?
After all, he still has the exclusive supreme emperor tool handed down by the royal family... And if he assists His Highness with his ability, then if His Highness wants to become the first emperor of the ages, it is really a simple matter...
It's just that His Highness dares to believe him now? After all, he used to be blackmailing His Majesty and monopolizing power.
"My lord, the letters of several adults... One of Earnest's henchmen respectfully bent down and brought the urgent envelope he had just received on his plate.
"Hmm~ Got it. Ernest didn't check, waved his henchman down, and still sat comfortably on the sofa, enjoying the maid's massage.
"Won't you check it out, sir?" the henchman carefully placed the plate on the solid wood table in front of Earnest, then stepped back slightly, standing behind Earnest.
"I don't have to look at it, I know that it's the waste that wants me to save them, but I can't protect myself... Hahaha~" Earnest laughed with some emotion.
What will Your Highness choose?
But at the same time, he must also be ready to escape from the imperial capital at any time, although he didn't realize that he could escape from the hands of those highnesses, but everything had to be tried~ Anyway, when the time comes, it will be death...
"Ek!"
"Yes, sir!" the henchman respectfully bent over to Earnest's side.
"Where can the secret passage help me escape?"
"The secret passage extends all the way to the city controlled by the Anning Dao, my lord, you made the right choice back then... If it weren't for this secret passage, maybe we wouldn't have been able to escape the imperial capital... The henchman also has some emotion.
At the time he did not understand why the Lord would spend a lot of money to build a secret passage, but now he understands ... At the same time, his heart is also full of emotion.
The wisdom of adults, the prophets of the unknown, are beyond their reach.
"Even so, the secret passage may not be able to help us escape, after all, those few are not easy to mess with?If His Highness really wants to kill me, even if we flee to the ends of the earth, what is the use? We will definitely be caught up by them in the end!" Ornest said lightly, shaking the red wine glass in his hand, the bright red wine in it was particularly bright...
"What are we going to do?" the henchman was a little flustered.
"What's the panic? now we're waiting !! now," Earnest rebuked angrily, it's taboo to mess around!
"Waiting for His Highness's choice !!"
"Yes, sir!"
"Your Highness~ How will you choose?" Earnest muttered, looking lightly in the direction of Ollistin and the others leaving the imperial capital.
