Bone Bone Bone ......

A skull rolled on the greasy black floor, and although most of the face was covered in hair, a pair of exposed eyes were fierce and unwilling, and the blood stains had completely dried up where the neck and body had been cut off, and the edges of the flesh were curled hard.

Zhu Qi opened his eyes, and then slowly closed them again, Xiongfeng... In the end, he didn't listen to his own orders.

This feeling is very complicated, both joyful and heartbroken, and the feeling of loneliness and helplessness continues to spread from the bottom of the heart.

Is it bad to be alive? Why are you so persistent......

"You'll see another one later." The footsteps are from far to near, and Zhu Qi knows who is coming without opening his eyes.

Wu Qi moved over a chair and quickly stroked it twice with his sleeve, Li Desheng paused for a second, but still chose to sit down.

"Yun Qi was also arrested by you." What Zhu Qi said was an affirmative sentence. If Yun Qi chose to escape, with Dashun's current strength of sea ships, he would definitely not be able to find him so quickly.

Li Desheng shook the python robe on his body noncommittally.

"Fifteen?" Zhu Qi's pet name has been ranked since the beginning of the year, and fifteen is the second tiger he raised.

Li Desheng's chin was slightly tilted towards Wu Qi.

"The subordinates originally wanted to add a foot mat to His Highness, but I heard the master of the nitrate skin say that the food of this tiger was too poor before, and the hair fell out badly..." ”

Zhu Qi knew that this was the other party deliberately insulting himself, but he was the king and the loser, so he admitted it. Now he has become a prisoner of the enemy, and the day is precarious, not to mention the beast who can't speak at the fifteenth.

"Zhu Qiye should be very accustomed to living in this place." Li Desheng looked at each other playfully, quite satisfied with the "hospitality" that Zhu Qi received every day.

The place where Zhu Qi is now locked up is the place where he often used to hide when he was the shadow of Emperor Jianlong.

"I didn't expect to be able to revisit the same place in my lifetime." Zhu Qi kept his eyes closed, as if Li Desheng was not worth his eyes to see.

"I'm very curious, how can that little girl~ look so much like the daughter of the lonely king?" Like Li Desheng, he has doubted countless times that the Zhu family gave birth to several daughters back then, and even the Zhu family himself does not know. If it is really the daughter of the lonely king......

Zhu Qi didn't move or answer.

Seeing him like this, Li Desheng didn't have the patience to wait any longer, stood up and sneered, "It's not the master's daughter anyway." "As for whether she will be a skinny horse when she grows up, it is not a sin created by her father.

"Ho-ho... cough, cough, cough..."Zhu Qi's laughter quickly extended into a cough, "It's not your daughter, but it's your niece." Ha ha... "Anyway, it's all your Li family's children!"

Li Desheng froze suddenly, but immediately returned to normal, "You will be able to see them (Zhu Qi's subordinates) soon, but if Concubine Cen knows underground, her son was killed by you......"

It wasn't until he could no longer hear the footsteps of Li Desheng and Wu Qi that Zhu Qi opened his eyes again, he didn't believe that Li Wenjin would really kill Li Wenrui!

But what if...... Then he is dead and has no face to see Xiu Yu!

******

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty's ......"

Compared with Zhu Qi, Li Wenrui's treatment is obviously much better.

A large part of Emperor Tai's illness in the future comes from the heart, and the emperor hesitated about how to deal with this sixth brother.

At first, I wanted to cut him with a thousand knives, but after all, this person was his younger brother, and he had been fighting and accompanying him for so many years. He also has several sons, and he doesn't want to leave a bad example for them.

Forever get rid of the aftermath or be degraded to a lifelong confinement of the people, Emperor Jingtai is very entangled.

The attitude of the ministers is also very ambiguous, to put it bluntly, this is also the emperor's family matter, and everyone is unwilling to be the "rafters who come out". Zhu Qi naturally can't be spared, as for Prince Xian... You are the emperor, you have the final say.

"Wen Rui, whose family is that child?" Emperor Jingtai hated Li Wenrui the most, that is, he attacked a few children, how could he do this uncle and grandfather!

The once tall and handsome Prince Xian now looks haggard, his face is full of scruffy beard, the bags under his eyes are drooping, and the whole person looks very decrepit.

"It's... It's ......" Li Wenrui found it difficult to speak, if he told the truth, would the imperial brother hate himself more?

"Is it the seventh?"

Emperor Jingtai guessed, except for the seventh child, no son's heir is as big as the daughter of the Sheng'er family.

Li Wenrui nodded with difficulty.

Alas~ Emperor Jingtai once again lamented that his son was too stupid, and he was sold and helped count the money.

Looking at his brother, who was becoming more and more like his father, Li Wenrui was in a trance for a moment.

Rui, originally his name, was taken by his father to seal his brother (I don't know what Emperor Jianlong thought at the beginning, the third son Li Wenjin was named Prince Rui), which is an unprecedented shame in the royal family and even Dashun.

For this reason, he had to write three times after his brother ascended the throne to ask the emperor brother to approve his name change.

"Brother Huang," Li Wenrui cried bitterly, "Brother Huang, my brother is wrong, Brother Huang..."

The desire to not get the right grows over time, and the desire for the throne has become the driving force to support his own survival.

Li Wenrui's forehead was bruised, and Emperor Jingtai helped up this younger brother who liked to oppose him since he was a child, "Anyway, what else do you want, I will satisfy you." "Of course, if it's a vain request, then don't mention it.

Li Wenrui was stunned, the imperial brother wants to kill me? He really won't let me go this time......

No, don't...... This cognition made Li Wenrui's brain collapse, what to do, how could this be!

"I'm your own brother, Zhu Qi ...... "He's lying to you, brother Huang, don't listen to Zhu Qi's nonsense, my mother is not that kind of person!"

"Zhu Qi said that he lied to you before." You will always be my own brother, but I can't spare you this time.

Li Wenrui sat paralyzed on the ground, repeating in his mouth: "It's over, it's over..."

"I won't be embarrassed by a few nephews and nephews." That's all I can do.

After speaking, Emperor Jingtai glanced at his younger brother deeply, and left without looking back, no matter how he knelt and begged and cried, his footsteps did not stop at all.

******

In the last dynasty before the Wanshou Festival, Emperor Jingtai finally personally "went out of the mountain" and announced in public that Zhu Qi and the rest of the party, colluded with Li Wenrui, the prince of Xian, to commit treason and rebellion, murder of the emperor's heir and other ten crimes, sentenced Zhu Qi to death, and the rest of the people were executed.

Prince Xian's lineage was all demoted to concubines, and three generations were not allowed to enter the court as officials.

As soon as the news came out, it caused a sensation in Beijing.

On the morning of the same day, Zhu Qi, Yun Qi and others were dragged to the upper street of the avenue. At noon, the entrance of the vegetable market was crowded with people who had come to watch the execution.

At the same time, Emperor Jingtai recruited all the members of the royal family and watched Li Wenrui be tortured at the noon gate.

The Zhongyi Marquis Mansion also dispatched all the staff, Qinglan and her family were not together, she was a political task, so she was closer to Zhu Qi and the others.

Cutting people on the battlefield and watching people being chopped at the entrance of the vegetable market are completely two concepts, and Qinglan at this moment is more afraid of imperial power in her heart.

The emperor was furious, and the corpse was floating for thousands of miles.

It turns out that this is not just a casual statement.

Zhu Qi was too old and his sebum was too loose, so in order to ensure that he survived to the last knife, the executioner had to feed him medicine after a while to avoid dying of excessive blood loss halfway.

Qing Lan's hands were shaking during the whole process, and she didn't know if Zhu Qike on the torture table had regretted it.

The Mansion of the Marquis of Zhongyi

After dinner, everyone hugged a cup of tea and sat around the round table to chat.

"Third uncle, does it have to be cut with a thousand knives?"

The reason why Pan Erniang asked this question was because she saw that Zhu Qi had been chopped for a whole afternoon, but he did not die.

The old general didn't see a smile all day, "It depends on what the boss ordered." ”

If it is said that you should cut carefully, so as not to let people die so quickly, then you will have a lot of knives, and people will suffer for a long time; If the boss wants to reward him with a good time, then it won't take a few knives, and people can suffer less for a while.

"That Zhu Qi, I didn't expect to be so old..."Pan Erniang was very embarrassed, they are so old, it's not good to do something, I have to provoke Prince Xian to rebel, it's really idle.

"Qingqing, you must be cautious in everything you say and do in the court." The old general instructed a few children, "There are also Xiaoyu and He'er, you will all have to eat this bowl of rice in the future, always remember the word 'Shendu'." ”

"Yes." The three children answered in unison.

Today's incident has a great impact on the entire Shu family, and when Shu Lao Er went home in the afternoon, he poured a few cups of hot tea to ease up.

"The emperor actually slaughtered his younger brother ......", and Shu Lao Er was difficult to understand both mentally and emotionally.

"Your Majesty... The emperor is really powerful...... "Pan Erniang was also frightened, and for the first time she had the idea of returning to Weixian County to be a little common man. "Why don't we go back to Weixian." It's not bad to go back and be a rich man, open a small shop or something.

"Mother, the emperor is right about things and not people. As long as our family doesn't make mistakes, the emperor won't do anything to us. "That's where it goes, and it's scared you like that.

"That's it," Brother He'er "kindly" reminded Pan Erniang: "My sister will marry His Royal Highness Thirteen in the future." ”

Pan Erniang glanced at her daughter worriedly, "Or ...... "Mother will find you an ordinary family, the royal family is too scary, let's not climb high."

The old general stopped Pan Erniang's words, "Be cautious, there are some things that we don't have the final say. ”

Pan Erniang and Shu Lao Er glanced at each other, lowered their eyes and stopped talking.

******

The next day, Zhu Qi's torture continued. Qinglan was on the way to the execution ground and met Pei Qingzhi.

"Lord Shu."

Pei Qingzhi returned to the way she was when she first met, Qinglan secretly said a word of hypocrisy, and put on this posture of civil and military discord and clear class distinction in front of outsiders, pretending!

In other words, don't civil and military officials never interact? Or are they just pretending to be at odds on the surface, but in fact they are ...... in private? Forget it, why do you care about this.

"Master Pei." Qinglan also put on a posture of rejecting people thousands of miles away. As a subordinate official, she couldn't cross Pei Qingzhi, so she had to make a gesture, meaning to let Pei Qingzhi go first.

Pei Qingzhi slowed down, and he had the intention of walking with Qinglan.

"I heard that Guo Xiaoqing and Master Guo are the same junior disciples of Master Shu?"

The two of them were both riding horses and went in the same direction, and despite Hariran's best efforts to avoid them, the two horses came together side by side.

"Yes." Qinglan muttered in her heart, why are you asking my junior brother?

Don't blame Qinglan for conspiracy theories, although she has just entered the officialdom, after a few months of observation, these officials either don't speak, and there is not a word of nonsense when they open their mouths, they are all a kind of message or the transmission of attitude and position.

"It turns out that Master Shu is actually a high-ranking disciple of Ji Daru of the Dongshan Ji family, disrespectful ~ disrespectful ~ " Pei Qingzhi suddenly changed his tone and hit Qinglan "off guard".

Ji Daru and the Ji family's status in Jiangnan is second to none, and without knowing what Pei Qingzhi's "conspiracy" is, Qinglan had no choice but to fight haha. "General Pei has won the award, Qinglan is not ......" is followed by a large paragraph of humble words.

Pei Qingzhi was not annoyed, and asked Qinglan to help him introduce Ji Daru, saying how he admired Ji Daru since he was a child, and so on.

Qinglan didn't show it on her face, but she was even more puzzled in her heart, from junior brother to master, Pei Qingzhi must have "transmitted" some information through these two people, but he was too stupid to think of it at all.

******

“......”

Qinglan was woken up by a hot towel, and when she opened the corner of the curtain, she found that it was still pitch black outside.

"Miss," Mama Wei leaned over and said, "It's time to get up." ”

"What time is it?" It's still dark outside, are you too positive, Mama?

"Yin Zheng."

Next Olympics! It's only four o'clock!

"Isn't it going to be a little early?" Qinglan still wants to squint for a while, lack of sleep will make her energy unable to keep up all day, and her sister doesn't want to fall asleep on the way to the celebration.

"The general is already waiting for Miss."

......

Okay, Qinglan sat up slowly with her eyes half-closed, wrapped in the quilt, and Yijuan Yichan quickly handed over the toothbrush and mouthwash.

Mama Wei pulled a complicated bun for Qinglan, and asked Qinglan to say, anyway, she had to buckle a hat on her head, and it didn't make much difference what she looked like.

Putting on the ironed official uniform, Qinglan didn't even dare to use chopsticks, hey, drink porridge, anyway, I got up so early, and my appetite hasn't woken up yet.

The old general persuaded his granddaughter to eat some more meat mats, and the banquet only started at noon, and there were still three or four hours in between!

Qinglan couldn't swallow it, "Grandpa, I packed a few pieces of chocolate." "I'm really hungry, so take it out and pad it.

The old general didn't persuade again, and the two of them walked in the direction of the palace by one and one horse.

Today's "security check" level was raised again, and Qinglan swallowed two pieces of chocolate in a row, proving that this thing was not medicine but candy, and the guards were willing to let it go.

Worship parents, worship ancestors, receive congratulations from hundreds of officials, open feasts, watch performances, eat and drink until evening, this is the general process of the Wanshou Festival.
