25. Stone Lion (18)
"Princess," Master Bao said loudly, "The emperor did not issue an edict to give Miss Cui the death penalty, so Bao Zheng is not a protester." What's more, princess, you have to be forgiving and forgiving! β
"Hmph," the princess looked at Lord Bao coldly: "The words of this palace are what the imperial brother means." This slave of the Cui family is so bold that he dares to claim to be the fiancΓ©e of the concubine, this is the crime of defiling the royal family - shouldn't he be killed? β
"Princess," Cui Yi, who really couldn't hear others hurt his daughter so much, said: "If you really want to talk about it in detail, the little girl and that Liu Ying are in the first place, and you and Liu Ying are in the back, how can this be the little girl who is the emperor's concubine?" β
The princess's eyes widened in disbelief: "What do you mean by this old man?" Do you want this palace to be small? β
"Old man Cui," Liu Ying's eyes widened, "Don't slander this horse." It was your daughter who couldn't get married in the first place, so you wanted to rely on me with a dead face, and I didn't look down on her at all......"
"You ......" Hearing Liu Ying's words, Cui Yi pointed to his hand and trembled, but he couldn't say a complete sentence.
And Cui Yimei's tears also flowed, knowing in her heart that if Liu Ying said such a thing, no one would be willing to marry her again in this life......
Zhang Long clenched his fists angrily, and the dynasty next to him quickly pulled him and stopped him from making his next move.
"Bao Zheng," the princess turned the finger at Lord Bao again, "Didn't you hear what the colt said?" Why don't you give these two people to this palace? β
The princess's arrogance and Liu Ying's rudeness finally made Lord Bao unbearable.
Master Bao slapped the table and shouted, "Please punish him!" β
Lord Bao's words shocked everyone, even Yu Xiaoyu, who had been hiding by the side door, was startled. Zhan Zhao, Gongsun Ce, Wang Ma Zhang Zhao and others looked at each other, and at the same time said respectfully: "Your Excellency, ......"
"Why, didn't you hear what you guys said about the sunspots?" The princess sneered and looked at Zhan Zhao and the others, constantly urging a few people in her mouth.
"That's it," Liu Ying was holding the princess's arm beside her, her eyes were also wide, and her face was a villainous expression: "You are all deaf, aren't you?" Princess, it seems that I really have to mention it to the imperial brother: this Kaifeng Mansion should really send a few clever people......"
However, a few people in the lobby didn't seem to hear the words of the princess and Liu Yingyi, they just looked at Lord Bao, expecting that he would change his mind the next moment.
However, Master Bao always looked determined, and had no intention of changing his mind at all; In the end, Gongsun Ce could only give Wang Ma Zhang Zhao a look, and signaled them to do what Master Bao said first, and then find a way to make Lord Bao change his mind when the imperial punishment came up.
After receiving Gongsun Ce's hint, Wang Dynasty, Ma Han, and Zhao Hu all nodded, and only stood in the middle of the lobby with Zhang Long standing upright, looking at Master Bao motionlessly.
In the end, when Wang Dynasty and Ma Han saw Zhang Long, Zhang Long did not react at all, so he could only drag Zhang Long down.
It wasn't until the other three agreed that if Lord Bao was willing to change his mind at the last moment and insisted on killing the Cui family and daughter, then they would rescue the Cui family together, and Zhang Long and the other three walked into the lobby again with the imperial punishment.
Yu Xiaoyu saw again vaguely that Wang Ma, Zhang Zhao and the four of them walked up carrying something covered with a yellow dragon jacket.
The four of them placed the things in Zhou Zheng, and Wang Chao stepped forward to shake off the yellow dragon's sleeve, revealing the golden and shining dragon head inside.
Seeing this, Yu Xiaoyu remembered that the so-called "imperial punishment" was the famous dragon head guillotine, tiger head guillotine, and dog head guillotine in Kaifeng Mansion.
As soon as Liu Ying saw the majestic guillotine, she couldn't help but shrink behind the princess cowardly, and closed her eyes tightly: "Bao Zheng, let's hurry up and get rid of people." This thing looks weird! β
"Put Liu Ying on the mouth." Lord Bao's black face sank, and he said something that shocked the spirits of everyone in Kaifeng Mansion.
Taking advantage of the moment when the princess and Liu Ying were stunned, Zhang Long rushed forward with an arrow and directly pulled Liu Ying out from behind the princess.
Ma Han took Liu Ying from Zhang Long and threw Liu Ying directly to the ground. Immediately afterwards, Zhang Qian rushed over with the other three servants, put wooden chews in Liu Ying's mouth, stripped off his clothes, rolled him up with a reed mat, and tied him three times with straw ropes.
Zhang Long and Zhao Hu lifted Liu Ying, who was bound, up, walked to the front of the guillotine, and put it into the guillotine, with both ends equal.
At this time, Wang Chao turned inward with a straight face, holding the knife target in his left hand, pressing the back of the knife with his right hand, staring straight at Lord Bao on the seat.
Master Bao flicked the sleeves of his robe, twisted his neck, and shouted the word "execution" in his mouth.
"Hmm...... Hmm......" Liu Ying, who had already reacted, trembled his teeth and couldn't say a word; The princess hadn't even realized what was going on.
After Master Bao gave the order to execute, Wang Chao hurriedly turned his body vertically, and his arms were forced, only to hear a click, and Liu Ying was suddenly cut in two from his waist.
Zhang Qian and the other four officials hurriedly ran over, each tied a white cloth skirt around their waists, ran to the front of the guillotine, and first lifted Liu Ying's corpse up and hugged it.
Wang Dynasty, Ma Han and a few others hurriedly wiped the imperial punishment clean.
vaguely saw Yu Xiaoyu, who Liu Ying was cut in two, and suddenly felt a tumbling in his stomach, and quickly covered his mouth and ran out......
At this time, Cui Yimei, who clearly saw what had happened, had fainted; Cui Yi endured the nausea, supported his daughter Cui Yimei, and watched his son-in-law and son-in-law, whom he had loved for nearly two years, being cut in two, and wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes......
It wasn't until Liu Ying's body was held down that the princess reacted. Looking at the uncleaned bloodstains in the lobby, the princess pointed at Master Bao angrily: "Bao Zheng, you ......"
However, the grief and indignation in her heart still made the princess unable to hold it anymore and fainted directly.
Seeing that the princess fainted, the palace maid beside the princess hurriedly carried the princess out.
Yu Xiaoyu kept squatting in the corner of the wall, and the hazy scene in front of her kept appearing until Wang Erya found her......
"Sister Yu," Wang Erya patted Yu Xiaoyu's back with concern: "What's wrong with you?" β
"No, it's fine!" Yu Xiaoyu shook his head weakly, looking weak.
"Ah," Wang Erya looked at Yu Xiaoyu, who had a very bad face, and suddenly patted her head as if she understood something: "I know, Sister Yu, do you have a child?" I heard Wu's mother, and the cook in Kaifeng Mansion say that women become relatives, always vomit, and look very weak, that is, they have children......"
"What nonsense?" Wang Erya's words made Yu Xiaoyu come back to his senses, and he couldn't help but pout: "This kind of thing must not be said nonsense, be careful that Lord Zhan goes to Lord Bao to sue you?" Okay, let's not talk about that......"
Yu Xiaoyu grabbed Wang Erya's hand: "Quick, pull me up first!" β
Wang Erya smiled and pulled up Yu Xiaoyu: "I've never seen Sister Yu embarrassed!" β
"Hey," Yu Xiaoyu widened his eyes while walking side by side with Wang Erya: "Am I embarrassed?" I obviously haven't eaten in the morning, so I'm hungry, okay? β
"Sister Yu," Wang Erya's eyes widened in surprise: "Didn't you eat in the morning?" β
"No," Yu Xiaoyu looked aggrieved: "You all forgot about me, and I can't find the kitchen." β
"That ......"
"Forget it, let's lose weight!" Yu Xiaoyu smiled indifferently: "By the way, accompany me to see Xiao Ke." β
"But," Wang Erya pursed the corners of her mouth: "I just came back from the little girl!" I also heard that she was scared last night, so I went to see her? β
"Then come with me to have a look." Yu Xiaoyu said with a smile: "I'm alone, running around in this Kaifeng Mansion, and I'll be arrested as a bad guy again." It's not the same with you......"
"Who would dare to arrest you?" Wang Erya slapped Yu Xiaoyu with a smile: "I'll go get you some food!" After you finish reading Xiao Ke, just go directly to me, you can't skip meals! β
"That'll do fine." Yu Xiaoyu nodded: "I'll go see Xiao Ke, and then go to your place to eat." β
"Xiao Ke," Yu Xiaoyu found Xiao Ke's room according to the instructions of the people in Kaifeng Mansion, knocked on the door casually and pushed it open: "I'm coming to see you." β
"It's Mrs. Zhan," Xiao Ke hurriedly smiled and pulled Yu Xiaoyu into the room: "Why did you come?" β
"It's nothing," Yu Xiaoyu shook his head, and then smiled at Mrs. Bao who unexpectedly appeared in the room: "Mrs. Bao is also there?" β
"Yes," Mrs. Bao nodded, "I heard that Miss Xiaoke is not feeling well, so I came to take a look at her." β
"Me too," Yu Xiaoyu said with a smile: "Xiao Ke, how is it, are you better?" β
"Actually, I'm fine," Xiao Ke scratched his head: "It's just that a person suddenly appeared in the room, holding a knife in his hand, and he was scared......"
"Then you have to take care of it!" Mrs. Bao patted Xiao Ke's hand: "Don't worry, you are in Kaifeng Mansion, we will definitely be responsible for it to the end." β
"No need, no need," Xiao Ke kept shaking his head: "Mrs. Bao, I'll follow Mrs. Zhan back to the restaurant in a while." β
"That's it," Mrs. Bao stood up: "Okay, you guys talk first, I'll go back first." β
When Mrs. Bao left the room, Yu Xiaoyu pulled Xiao Ke back to the bed.
"You stupid, you," Yu Xiaoyu leaned into Xiao Ke's ear and lowered his voice: "Why didn't you hurry up and agree to Mrs. Bao just now?" If you stay here, you will have the opportunity to meet Master Ma; How long will it take you to see him if you live with me? The building near the water gets the moon first, do you understand? β
Xiao Ke shook his head bitterly: "Forget it." There was an assassin in my room, and Big Brother Ma didn't even come to see me, I ......"
"I said," Yu Xiaoyu blinked, "Just because of such a thing, are you going to give up?" β
Xiao Ke lowered his head: "I'm just a little beggar with no father and no mother on the street." It's useless to think about anything, no one will like my ......"
Xiao Ke said, suddenly jumped into Yu Xiaoyu's arms and cried loudly.
Yu Xiaoyu gently patted Xiao Ke's shoulder, but as soon as he inadvertently looked up, he saw Ma Han passing by the door and looking curiously into the room when he heard the cry, and quickly pushed Xiao Ke away in his arms, raised his hands high, and shouted loudly: "Master Ma, I really didn't do anything!" It's really not like I made her cry......"
"I ......" Ma Han stood at the door of the room awkwardly: "Mrs. Zhan, I'm just ......"
"Okay, okay," Yu Xiaoyu waved his hand: "Master Ma, it's better for you to accompany Xiao Ke." I happen to have something to do, I'm going to go first......"
"Mrs. Zhan," looking at Xiao Ke with tears on his face and looking at him expectantly, Ma Han's face showed a helpless wry smile: "I still have ......"
"Okay, okay," Yu Xiaoyu hurriedly rushed out: "Master Ma, last night, Xiao Ke was so frightened that he was so scared that he cried; Mrs. Bao said, you can't let Xiao Ke stay alone, you can stay here with her more......"
After Yu Xiaoyu finished speaking, he ran directly past Ma Han, but crashed into Zhanzhao's arms.
Zhan Zhao lowered his head, looked at Yu Xiaoyu who was "throwing himself into his arms", and asked puzzledly, "What's wrong?" β
"It's okay!"
"Then come with me, I have something to tell you."
Yu Xiaoyu nodded, followed Zhan Zhao directly, and returned to Zhan Zhao's room in Kaifeng Mansion.
"Little Fish, about ......"
"Okay," looking at Zhanzhao's expression, Yu Xiaoyu had already guessed what Zhanzhao was going to say, and quickly interrupted Zhanzhao's words: "Lord Zhan, don't worry, I'm measured." I think, although Liu Ying has already surrendered to the law, there is still a trouble on the princess's side! You get busy first, I'm going back to the restaurant......"
