Chapter 75: She's Like Xia Yao
The wood was already in the boat, and the hope in Nangong Ling Feng's heart was replaced by despair. Kneeling there with his head held high, during the last period of his life, Nangong Ling Feng recalled the most about the battles with the Xia family.
Lin Yixiang sat in his seat, his eyes kept looking at Nangong Lingfeng, waiting for the time to come soon. No matter how brilliant the Nangong family was in the past, but after today, it can only be the past. The world is impermanent, and God always likes it.
Lin Yixiang's fingers kept beating on the table, and he raised his eyes to look at the sky from time to time.
Lu Zhiyao sneaked in behind them, it was the first time she came on this occasion, and she chose a corner where she could see the execution scene, there was no imaginary danger, and after a long time, Lu Zhiyao didn't see anyone passing here.
Lu Zhiyao looked at the back of Nangong Ling Feng kneeling there, and what made her feel ironic was that it was Lin Yixiang who was sitting in front of him.
When the time finally came, Lin Yixiang said impatiently: "It's time to execute." ”
Nangong Ling Feng laughed when he heard his words, the first time he knelt for so long, his legs were already numb, and his heart was calm.
"Lin Yixiang, you will be punished."
This was the first thing Nangong Ling Feng said after being silent for so long.
Lin Yinan also smiled softly when he heard the conversation between the two, stretched his long legs and moved lazily. After today, the two brave generals of the Xia Lai Kingdom will be a thing of the past, and the court will definitely undergo a lot of changes. Who can snatch a good position in the shortest possible time and replace those important vacancies, who can gain Lin Yixiang's trust as quickly as possible and become his confidant. In Lin Yinan's eyes, these will be interesting things.
"General Nangong, let's go." Lin Yinan said in a low voice, "If you can see General Xia, remember to tell him, there are people up there who miss him very much." ”
"Hahaha." Nangong Lingfeng laughed, "The meaning of the Eighth Prince's words, the old man really has to speculate and speculate!" ”
The executioners standing on both sides of Nangong Lingfeng had already begun to act, the air became solemn, and everyone's eyes were focused on Nangong Lingfeng.
The blade that flashed with cold light was raised, Nangong Lingfeng's head slowly lowered, and his hand was clenched into a fist.
In this life, he has endured hardship, he has been rich, he has held power, and he has enjoyed fame. If he has to say that there is anything he Nangong Lingfeng can't let go, then there is only Nangong Nuo'er.
The daughter who has been held in the palm of Nangong Lingfeng since she was a child, has been regarded as a daughter raised by her son since she was a child, and she must get it no matter what she wants since she was a child.
It was Lin Yixiang who sent him to the guillotine today, and this person was also the husband that his daughter had worked hard to snatch. He died, and the saddest thing was Nangong Nuo'er. Nangong Lingfeng was reluctant to let her die, but he was also reluctant to leave her alone in this world and suffer by Lin Yixiang's side.
Without the protection of the Nangong family, Lin Yixiang would no longer be kind to Nangong Nuo'er, this is a question that has been thought of the moment Nangong Lingfeng was imprisoned. Lin Yixiang is a man who will do anything for power, just like himself, and like the current emperor. Nangong Lingfeng admires such a person, but when this kind of person uses his means on himself, everything is not like that again......
When Nangong Nuo'er came to her senses and rushed to the execution ground, what she saw was the scene where Nangong Lingfeng's head fell to the ground.
Blood was sprayed out, staining the stone steps red, and staining the executioner's clothes red.
"Daddy!!"
Nangong Nuo'er's feet were weak and she fell to the ground during the run. Her screams covered up the bright low chirp of the morning bird, and her eyes widened in horror, looking at Nangong Lingfeng's body falling instantly, her head falling from her neck under the executioner's knife-swinging motion, and after rolling on the ground twice, she stopped not far from the corpse.
Such a picture deeply stimulated Nangong Nuo'er's nerves, that man was the person who loved her the most in the world! It was the countless times who smiled at her and told her that as long as there was him for a day, no one would dare to bully her!
Nangong Nuo'er lay on the ground, slammed the ground twice with her fist, and unconsciously burst into tears. Putting down the previous shelves and throwing away all the restraints, Nangong Nuo'er cried loudly, got up and continued to stagger towards Nangong Lingfeng. Rushing past the guards, she finally came to his side. With a hoarse voice, Nangong Nuo'er kept shouting "Dad" as if she was crazy, and sat there trembling on her knees, she picked up Nangong Lingfeng's corpse, and endured everyone's eyes, either pity or indifference. She was like a play, acting out the play alone for them to see.
Lu Zhiyao watched all this quietly, thinking that she would be happy, but she didn't.
The current Nangong Nuo'er is just like her, just a pitiful worm. No, it's even more pitiful than her. She at least still has Lin Yinan, but Nangong Nuo'er really has nothing left.
Lu Zhiyao has always known that what Nangong Lingfeng gave to Nangong Nuo'er would definitely not be less than what Xia Zhenkun gave her. No one can afford to witness the death of their loved ones like this. In this battle between the Nangong family and the Xia family, there is no winner. They are just pawns of others competing for power, fighting each other, and finally dying at the hands of others.
Nangong Nuo'er was about to faint from crying, and some of the guards couldn't bear to look at it, frowning and lowering their heads. But there was one person who always stared at her calmly.
Lin Yinan glanced at Lin Yixiang beside him, looked at his cold and resolute side face into his eyes, and said slowly: "Nangong Nuo'er, after all, she is your woman." ”
After Lin Yixiang heard Lin Yinan's words, he glanced at him, pondered for a moment, and then walked in the direction of Nangong Nuo'er.
His arrival did not make Nangong Nuo'er's situation any better, hatred shot out of her teary eyes, Nangong Nuo'er gritted her teeth with hatred, and wanted to kill him with her own hands to avenge Nangong Lingfeng.
"Get out! Get the hell out of here! Nangong Nuo'er waved her hand to prevent Lin Yixiang from touching her, "I don't want to see you again, I don't want to see you again!" ”
"Enough trouble, it's time for us to go home." Lin Yixiang said indifferently.
Nangong Nuo'er tried very hard to show a smile, but she didn't do it. The corners of her mouth rose slightly and then quickly drooped again, she still held Nangong Lingfeng's corpse and refused to let go, no matter how Lin Yixiang pulled, she didn't stand up.
Lin Yinan looked at this scene and sighed, he stood up, and wanted to leave this place with a headache. But at this time, Lu Zhiyao, who had been hiding in the shadows, chose to walk in front of everyone.
The sudden appearance of Lu Zhiyao made many guards think that he was an assassin, and after being stunned, he surrounded Lu Zhiyao, but before he could do anything to her, he was shocked by the unhappy look on the face of the Eighth Prince who fell from the sky.
Lin Yinan is not a person who often looks at people coldly, and when he is really displeased, it means that he is really angry.
"What do you want to do to the Eighth Imperial Princess?" The elegant tone, but with a hint of murder.
Lu Zhiyao walked out from behind Lin Yinan, passed by him, didn't say anything, and walked towards Nangong Nuo'er and Lin Yixiang.
The guards stepped back, making way for her. Lu Zhiyao walked there with heavy steps, and Lin Yixiang hadn't made a move to knock Nangong Nuo'er unconscious.
Lu Zhiyao's appearance surprised both of them and made them feel weird. Lu Zhiyao smelled the strong smell of blood that made people sick, Nangong Nuo'er's body was already full of bloodstains, on his hands and face.
Lu Zhiyao took a deep breath, and then looked at Lin Yixiang with a firm gaze.
"It turns out that the two best women in the country of Charlais are all blind and have taken a fancy to you." Lu Zhiyao lightly opened his lips and said to Lin Yixiang in full view of everyone: "Seventh Prince, the Xia family does not owe you, and this time, the Nangong family does not owe you either." Once you have achieved a thousand bones, how does it feel to step on the bones of so many people under your feet now? ”
Lu Zhiyao's words were undoubtedly slapping Lin Yixiang in the face, Nangong Nuo'er never thought that one day Lu Zhiyao would stand up and speak for her, and Lin Yixiang didn't expect that Lu Zhiyao would be so disrespectful to the occasion, relying on Lin Yinan's support, he would act arbitrarily! And the most important thing is that the words that came out of Lu Zhiyao's mouth made Lin Yixiang think of Xia Yao irrepressibly. A feeling of déjà vu, words that déjà vu have been heard. There are some things he said to Xia Yao, and others shouldn't know about it!
Lu Zhiyao smiled arrogantly, and was taken away by Lin Yinan, who rushed over in a panic.
Lu Zhiyao didn't know what to say, she stood there facing the cold wind, tilting her head slightly, smiling coldly, her long hair was flying, and the corners of her clothes were flying, like the dead Xia Yao.
The appearance of the two was different, but at that moment, not only Lin Yinan saw it, but even Lin Yixiang and Nangong Nuo'er saw that she looked like Xia Yao.
So even the Eighth Prince, who has always been pampered and not shocked, panicked and scared. As if only his own secret had been revealed, he was worried, he was uncomfortable. He just wants her to be his woman, she doesn't have to be amazingly beautiful, she doesn't have to be talented, she just needs to stay by his side and be his woman! No one can snatch it, no one can take it away, and no one will have ill intentions towards her.
But just now, he clearly saw the amazement and longing in Lin Yixiang's eyes. This is something that Lin Yinan has been worried about all along, he understands her good, and he has always understood it. But even if she changes her appearance, Xia Yao is Xia Yao, and she will not become someone else.
"I knew that I shouldn't have brought you here." Out of the court, Lin Yinan said to Lu Zhiyao in a depressed mood.
Lu Zhiyao thought that Lin Yinan was angry that she came out to say that to Lin Yixiang, she was very childish, and she herself knew what to do, so she lowered her head weakly and listened to Lin Yinan's words obediently.
