Chapter 170: Fearful
The Seventh Prince walked to the door with a snort, and before leaving, he glanced at the dinner plate on the ground, and kicked all the two dishes and one soup to the ground with a very unhappy kick.
An evil smile leaked from the Seventh Prince's face, and then he turned to Tuoba Heng and said, "Hmph! People who are going to die, why are you eating so good!! ”
After the Seventh Prince said this, he secretly thought in his heart, this is what will happen if you don't tell me the whereabouts of 100,000 elite soldiers.
After the Seventh Prince finished bullying Tuoba Heng, he still felt unhappy in his heart, and walked at the door for a while, he was restless, and he was still a little afraid for a while, if the prince's people came to ask, what if Tuoba Heng told them?
The Seventh Prince walked to the door of the dungeon and ordered his henchmen to keep an eye on Tuoba Heng before he was beheaded, and to report any changes to him.
The guards answered, and the Seventh Prince straightened his waist with confidence, put his hands behind his back, and walked out with a virtuous look.
Tuoba Heng had been arguing with the Seventh Prince for a while just now, and now he got up and really twisted his waist, and he felt a lot more relieved in an instant.
Tuoba Heng was helpless, looking at the food falling on the ground, this may really be the last meal he can eat in this world, Tuoba Heng thought about it and walked over, squatted down and picked up the roast chicken, he patted off a little dust on it, and then tore off the chicken wings and ate it.
Since it's the last meal, it's natural to eat a little more before heading on the road.
Tuoba Heng is not the kind of person who likes to abuse himself, everything is so unacceptable, just like the Seventh Prince, once he can't get it, he will only shout.
It wasn't long before four or five guards came to the door of the cell, and they were the ones who escorted Tuoba Heng to the execution ground, and one of them still had a clip in his hand.
The guards opened the cell door and walked in, and one of the guards put the chained clip on Tuoba Heng's head and fastened his hands to the clip.
After fixing the utensils on his body, the guards walked out of the cell with Tuoba Heng.
"Let's go, now is the way to the execution ground." A little guard who often bullied Tuoba Heng said.
Tuoba Heng didn't pay attention to it, everyone knew about it, and it was just a death for him.
Tuoba Heng was mentally prepared, so he would not feel scared in the face of everything outside.
Walking on the hollowed-out prison car on all sides, Tuoba Heng accepted the gaze of the people all the way towards the execution ground.
At this moment, Su Cimo and Chen Feng were dressed up in disguise and mixed on the periphery of the execution ground, they were waiting for the people sent by His Royal Highness the Prince, and they were also waiting for Tuoba Heng to appear.
"Prime Minister Su, have you really negotiated with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" Chen Feng frowned slightly, and said with a look of unease about her.
Chen Feng looked at the execution table over there, but there was no one on the stage, not even the prison officer.
Su Cimo looked at the location of the entrance with a slightly nervous expression, and then turned his eyes to Chen Feng and said, "Naturally, it has been negotiated, if the prince refuses to make a move, then Tuoba Heng can only die." But I'm sure the crown prince won't sit idly by. ”
When Chen Feng heard this, he immediately knelt down on one knee and saluted Su Cimo.
"Chen Feng apologized to you on behalf of my master, thank you for saving your life." Chen Feng said with a sincere look.
Su Cimo was speechless, and immediately pulled Chen Feng up.
"Our dress is just to make people not see, why can't you see it at this time, don't engage in these etiquettes between monarchs and ministers, let's hurry up and see if Tuoba Heng is here." Su Cimo said.
After a while, a carriage with a gold silk curtain slowly drove over, and along with the carriage came a convoy and countless pedestrians who were watching the excitement and follow them.
On a prisoner cart in the convoy, Tuoba Heng was brought over with shackles, accompanied by many escorted guard officers, all of whom looked majestic with big knives on their waists.
When Su Cimo saw this scene, her heart became more and more anxious, and she was so angry that she stomped on the ground.
Prince, Prince. But don't lie to her, if the prince deliberately promised her yesterday and didn't do anything today, then she would suffer.
Su Cimo thought about it, took out the death-free gold medal from her sleeve cage, she held the death-free gold medal tightly in her hand and raised it, leaking a small slit in the corner of her clothes, Su Cimo looked at the death-free gold medal with a firm look.
Su Cimo secretly made up her mind that if she didn't see the prince's people act for a while, then she would personally take out this death-free gold medal to save Tuoba Heng.
Although Tuoba Heng asked her not to use it, Su Cimo always felt that if he didn't save Tuoba Heng, even if he left this death-free gold medal, it might not be useful in the future.
Soon the prison officer read a passage of approval, which roughly explained that Tuoba Heng, as the third prince, was jealous of the prince's virtue, and deliberately injured the prince seriously, and now the emperor gave him the death penalty and immediately executed.
The noon sun shone straight down, shining on Tuoba Heng's clear and miserable face, which looked a little distressing.
Tuoba Heng looked outside the field, but saw that there were many people in black robes walking around outside the field, and the way they moved was gradually getting closer and closer to him.
Tuoba Heng frowned his eyes, as if he could see that something was wrong underneath.
The corners of Tuoba Heng's lips tugged slightly, and he chuckled at an angle that others couldn't see.
He knew that he would not be so alone, and if there were indeed secret guards below who were ready to rob the law field and rescue him.
But now the time is getting shorter and shorter, and the silence on the field seems to be heard when a pin falls.
The warden was waiting for the time to come, as long as the sun shone on the meridian pillar in the center, and the shadow that was knocked down formed a straight line with the shadow on the ground, then it was the time when he threw the token, that is, Tuoba Heng was about to be beheaded.
Su Cimo watched the time pass minute by minute offstage, and Tuoba Heng on the stage was a little overwhelmed by the sun.
Sweat slid down Tuoba Heng's head, and he was a little bored, thinking that those black-robed people would immediately come up to rob the Dharma field, but they didn't seem to be moved at all.
Su Cimo stomped her feet anxiously again, she frowned and looked at the position of the entrance of the field, but she still didn't see any sign of the half-point prince.
"Prime Minister." Chen Feng's face was full of gloom, and he glanced at Su Cimo.
Su Cimo shook his head and signaled him not to worry.
Soon, the shadow of the stone pillar and the shadow on the ground became a straight line, and when the supervisor saw this scene, he immediately reached out and gave the token with the word "chop" written on it.
The executioner on the stage spat the wine on the large knife that was more than a meter long.
Su Cimo saw this scene and walked to the front in a panic with the death-free gold medal.
Just as the executioner was ready for everything, holding the big knife in both hands, and preparing to fall, a voice suddenly interrupted his movements.
"Keep people under the knife!"
Su Cimo was taken aback, and he was about to say that he would keep people under the knife, but he was taken a step ahead by the voice outside.
She turned her eyes to look, but it was a palace guard riding a red horse, and he came to the prison beheading platform with the imperial list in his hand.
"The emperor has an order, although the crimes of the three princes are serious, there is still room for restitution, and he is now exempted from the death penalty and quickly returned to the palace to face the saint." The guard said, holding up the imperial list in his hand to show the warden.
The supervisor walked down the platform in a panic, and then took the imperial list with both hands, and saw that it was really the emperor's imperial seal, and before he had time to be surprised, the supervisor panicked and ordered someone to loosen the three princes on the stage.
Chen Feng and Su Cimo both had a look of surprise on their faces, the two glanced at each other, and then squeezed through the crowd in a panic, following the convoy all the way to look at Tuoba Heng.
Tuoba Heng was followed by some people in the city, and the people heard that the emperor had forgiven Tuoba Heng's crimes on the spot, and they were all a scene of laughter.
"Now it's good, the master's crime has been completely forgiven." Chen Feng said with excitement in his voice.
Su Cimo glanced at Chen Feng, he had never seen him so happy for so long, and he suddenly smiled from ear to ear.
"Okay, since your Royal Highness is fine, you go back and clean up first, and get ready to welcome him back to the house, and I'll take care of the affairs in the palace." Su Cimo whispered to Chen Feng.
Chen Feng nodded happily, but he still watched the convoy enter the palace before turning around and leaving.
Tuoba Heng has always wondered why the emperor would suddenly change his guilt at the last moment.
Finally, the carriage took him to the emperor's bedroom, and before Tuoba Heng could change into his prison clothes, he started to walk towards the emperor's bedroom.
But the eunuchs in the palace blocked Tuoba Heng's way.
"Third prince, please change your outfit and come again." The old man, who was served by a high-ranking eunuch, said.
Tuoba Heng opened his arm with one wrist, and then said: "Since the emperor wants to see me, it means that he will not dislike this outfit, get away!" Don't delay the hour. ”
When the old eunuch saw Tuoba Heng's face full of rebelliousness, he immediately didn't dare to stop him, but let Tuoba Heng enter the hall quickly.
As soon as Tuoba Heng entered the main hall, the emperor was pacing in the hall, not knowing what he was thinking.
Tuoba Heng suddenly walked in front of the emperor and knelt down on one knee and said, "The son thanked his father for not killing him. ”
As soon as the emperor heard Tuoba Heng's voice, he couldn't help but feel some distress rising in his chest.
He immediately smiled and said to Tuoba Heng, "Hurry up, please get up." ”
The emperor gave Tuoba Heng a seat, and he didn't say anything when he saw the prison clothes on his body.
"You must be curious about what is going on, so you dare to come to see me in a hurry." The emperor said meekly.
Tuoba Heng bowed his head slightly, and responded, "Yes." ”
The emperor smiled lightly and said: "I have really made you suffer in the past few days, and I was extremely unbearable, but there is a saying that a gentleman is difficult to chase after a horse, and as an emperor, I am examined by the eyes of all the people, so I gave an order to give you the death penalty, although I regret it in the following days, but it is too difficult to take back my fate." ”
Tuoba Heng was helpless in his heart, but he still pretended to be very obedient and nodded.
