Chapter 92: The Father and the Son
Zhou Yong staggered back a few steps, his expression pale, as if he had heard some desperate news. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The guard, on the other hand, looked at him with sympathy and pity, and turned away. In the eyes of the guards, this Ouchi commander, who has always been arrogant and arrogant by virtue of his family status, is afraid that it will be over, and he will openly flout the law, and he, including the family behind him, will have to bear the wrath of His Majesty.
Zhou Yong stayed there in a daze, and there was only one voice echoing in his heart: "It's over, it's over, I made a mistake, Your Majesty doesn't have such a mind at all......"
At this time, Li Taizhong, who was sitting in the center of the official platform, suddenly stood up, looked at Zhou Yong, who was lost in disgust, and said in a deep voice: "When the time comes, someone comes, execution!" ”
He spoke quickly, as if he didn't want to wait any longer, just wanted to get it done as soon as possible.
As the words fell, he threw the token. The wooden token swirled in the air and finally landed on the stage with a crisp sound. In this silent environment, it is unusually clear.
It's like a whisper of death, and it's like a soul hook from Hell Yama......
The two executioners walked towards Chen Ce naked, holding steel knives in their hands with fierce expressions.
The whole scene was solemn and solemn.
Suddenly, a light rain began to fall, like heavy snow a few days ago, which quickly lowered the temperature of this early morning. The cold wind suddenly rose, blew away the rain that drifted down from the sky, and blew towards the banner on the official platform. The rain gradually rippled, wetting the ground and drenching the people, and a large curtain of rain fell from the sky.
Everyone looked at each other, and they could only vaguely see the long reflective knife in the executioner's hand.
Li Taizhong stood with his hands in his hands, quietly watching the executioner impatiently drag away the body of the middle-aged man, and then straightened Chen Ce and stood with a knife.
There was a flash of grief, a hint of guilt, and more determination in his eyes.
The people in the audience have already made an uproar again. If it turned out that it was only a part of the people who shouted grievances for Chen Ce, then now it is the anger of more and more people, water can carry a boat, and it can also overturn a boat, if the official can't get along with the people, then the people will naturally no longer believe in the official.
For example, this time, some people actually don't have a good feeling about Chen Ce, after all, Chen Ce is just an ordinary person, and it is impossible to completely show favor to everyone. But Zhou Yong's previous behavior angered all the people, making them completely stand on the opposite side of those who are now in power.
They have become paranoid about believing that the Tang Emperor is going to do something to their people, so they are angry, they are against, they are fighting!
Countless voices converged into one sentence: "Chen Ce is not guilty!" ”
And Chen Ce has become the only fulcrum to maintain the relationship between the two, and once it is not handled carefully, it will cause a monstrous disaster.
Some people may say that it is just some ordinary people, and no one in power will care about that small part of the voice. But don't forget, thousands of miles of embankment collapse in an anthill, and even the smallest ant will overturn the elephant one day.
Li Taizhong knew very well, so he looked at the audience coldly, with hesitation in his eyes, he knew that if he didn't handle this matter well, then what was waiting for him would be dismissal or even accountability.
Until he thought of a voice, a nightmare sound that rang in his ears day and night. Li Taizhong's pupils shrank, his eyes gradually became firm, and he shouted loudly: "Cut!" ”
"Slash!" The officials behind him shouted in unison.
"Slash!!" The executioner also shouted.
"Cutting !!" All the guards looked solemn, raised their guns and stood respectfully, solemnly announcing it like the most just verdict in the sun.
For a time, the world was silent.
The noise of the people was also suppressed at this moment, and only the roars of the guards could be heard in the whole world, and even the rain in the sky seemed to be shocked, and it seemed to have stopped for a moment.
They said, "Chop! ”
The executioner roared, raising his hand and slapping his face away from the rain that had soaked his eyes. He trembled, constantly shaking the fat on his body, ugly and excited. With a fierce look in his eyes, he slowly raised the steel knife in his hand and slashed down.
At that time, the sky was already slightly shining, and the blade he raised was shining with a sharp luster, like the most righteous light in the world.
Out of thin air.
The people watched in amazement.
The officials on the stage also watched all this in shock.
Chen Ce closed his eyes slightly, but his heart was quiet at this time.
In the previous ten days, he had grief and resentment, because the people were excited about his actions, because of the appearance of the middle-aged man, and because of Zhou Yong's arrogance, he really let go of everything until the eve of death.
What comes to mind is not the scene of the high school champion that year, nor the spring breeze that climbed to the top of the people, but the harmony and beauty of the family getting together, this kind of life, I really miss it......
That's it, that's it, what can be done if providence is like this...... It's just, why doesn't it hurt at all?
Chen Ce barely raised his head, although the injuries all over his body made it take him all his strength to move at all, he still wanted to see what was going on.
What appeared in front of him was an emaciated figure.
Although it was still dark, in the midst of the rain, he could see who this figure belonged to, and he couldn't help but have a trace of tears in his dry eyes.
"Gu Yu ......," he said tremblingly.
The one who appeared here at the last moment to save Chen Ce was Chen Guyu, who rushed back from the front line, his son Chen Ce, Chen Guyu.
Chen Guyu slashed his sword and cut the executioner's neck in that instant. The executioner fell to the ground with a bang, and it was the young man in front of everyone who appeared in front of them.
The boy was dressed in simple clothes, although it was a winter morning, the cold wind was still howling, and the rain was falling on his clothes, but the boy did not seem to feel the slightest cold.
His fingers were long, and he was holding a sword, the blade of which was cold and cold, and a few drops of blood were gently dripping, mixing with the rain on the ground, rippling into the distance.
The surrounding guards seemed to want to step forward, but suddenly there was a feeling that if they went up, they would definitely die a miserable death, and the young man seemed to have the demeanor of a grandmaster, exuding an invisible blazing light, which made people dare not look directly.
The atmosphere froze.
Although there were a few assassins who had attacked before, it was only done in the shadows, and only a few people knew about it. And now, in front of tens of thousands of people, a young man came out of the sky, and the executioner was assassinated at the moment of execution, and the blade was stained with blood, forcing back a group of guards.
This is a robbery of the law, and this is a blatant provocation of the dignity of the ancient Tang law!
"Who's coming?"
"There are assassins!"
Finally, someone couldn't help it, and an official on the stage shouted in horror.
Chen Guyu ignored it, he looked at Chen Ce quietly, tears fell from his eyes, and he suddenly fell to his knees: "Dad, Dad, you have suffered!" ”
Chen Ce groaned, an ugly smile appeared on his face full of wounds, and he finally reluctantly spoke: "You're still alive, okay, okay...... You...... Shouldn't...... I shouldn't have come back! ”
Chen Ce was very happy, because Chen Guyu did not die after all, he survived the annihilation of the whole army, but he shouldn't come back, Tang Huang is definitely not a good person.
"No!" Chen Guyu shook his head: "You are my father, no matter what crime you have committed or you have been wronged, I will not allow you to be treated like this!" Whoever dares to do this, I will destroy him all over the place! ”
The boy roared angrily, half-kneeling on the platform, as if there was some color around him, making the rain look dull.
Chen Guyu looked at the wound on Chen Ce's body, there was a monstrous anger in his eyes, he pursed his lips, and with a movement of his mind, a ray of light came out of his hand and slowly wandered on Chen Ce's body.
Chen Ce only felt a sense of comfort on his body, and finally had the strength to raise his head: "You...... You go! Find a place to hide...... Don't let anyone get caught...... You...... Assaulting a prison ground is a capital offense! Walk...... Come on! ”
"Capital offense?" Chen Guyu looked at the palace coldly: "I'll kill him first!" ”
Because of the growth of strength and the breadth of his vision, the imperial city that he used to fear and yearn for was just a small place in his eyes at the moment, and he had a broader world in his heart.
As for the reverence for imperial power, it is no longer there, and the emperor who overthrew the Tang Dynasty has indirectly died in his hands, not to mention that this time it was the Tang Emperor's misjudgment of his father, and he was already dissatisfied in his heart.
Hearing Chen Guyu's words, Chen Ce was stunned, and hurriedly shook his head and said, "You kid...... Let's go! I know you're good at swordsmanship, but ...... The power of imperial power is definitely not something you can imagine...... Let's go, let's go...... Leave me alone! ”
After a few words, Chen Ce was already exhausted and out of breath. The light of that method only soothed his wounds, and now he was so excited that he took a few breaths, and finally could only shake his head incessantly.
Chen Guyu didn't say anything, just clasped his father's hand and said solemnly: "Dad, I will make those people pay the price!" ”
Chen Ce sighed, helpless.
Perhaps, son, has really grown up and knows what to do......
Chen Guyu looked at his father who seemed to be old all of a sudden, and he felt very uncomfortable, but some words could only be said after the fact, and he could only give his father a reassuring look.
Chen Guyu saw the bloody wounds on Chen Ce's body again, the nails that had been stripped off to bloody flesh, and his heart ached.
When I was a child, my father often used his big hands to grasp his little hands to play everywhere, sometimes rubbing his hair, sometimes hooking his nose, causing laughter.
He once bought rock sugar gourds at roadside stalls, smiled at himself and ate them, and once carried himself up to his neck as a horse, without the majesty of a prime minister.
Because of his mother's early death, he once said that he would be with his father for the rest of his life, take care of him, care for him, accompany him, never let him be alone, and always let his father hold his hand......
Only now, Father...... Will he still be able to hold himself unharmed?
Chen Guyu stood up, tightened the sword in his hand, and there was a thousand cold ice and monstrous anger in his eyes, which could freeze people's hearts and incinerate everything.
Any obstacle will be destroyed......
The official on the stage was still shouting, urging the guards to take down the Assassin.
Chen Guyu looked back and grinned sarcastically. The next moment, the sword in his hand was gone.
The officer didn't say anything more, a sword had pierced his chest, killing him with a single blow, and the color in the official's eyes gradually dimmed.
He never thought that he was taking the opportunity to curry favor with Fu Yin, but how could he end up dying. Also, how dare he kill someone in public, kill an incumbent court official in public?
Finally, after many people died, the first Gu Tang official also lost his life because of the beheading of Chen Ce.
While the officials on the stage were shocked and frightened, the people in the audience cheered.
Because in the eyes of the people, all Zhou Yong's actions just now were decided by their officials, even the emperor who lived in the deep palace, if the officials wanted to kill the people, then the people would naturally have to resist.
Hearing the cheers of the people, Chen Guyu turned around and bowed deeply, although he didn't know why the people gathered here, but he knew that it was these people who put deep pressure on those officials.
"Hmm, that seems to be Chen Xiang's son?"
"Chen Xiang's son, I heard that isn't that a gentleman?"
"Fart, you were deceived, someone framed you, how could such a top-notch character as Chen Xiang give birth to a bad talent!"
Chen Guyu listened to the words of the people and couldn't help but feel a little trance. It was obviously not long ago, but in his heart, he felt that a long time had passed, the madness of the Yugu Mountain Range, the killing of the Tang Dynasty, the confusion of the illusory world, and many things that had happened recently made him feel like time had flown by.
and King Liang, he can have such means to rebel against so many people to frame his father, why did he create his own rumors to fight it in the past few years, now it seems that this is just a very low-end incompetent approach.
