Chapter 609: The Execution Ground
Time passes minute by minute.
The huge execution ground has changed from being empty to now crowding more than 100,000 people.
This includes tens of thousands of miners in the coal mines, hundreds of snack bar employees, and thousands of people in paper and book factories.
In addition to these 20,000 Qin Ming's employees, the other more than 100,000 people are all scholars and ordinary people.
In fact, there should have been more people, but the place is so big that it can't accommodate it.
Just like that, the surrounding streets are still crowded with people.
The weather is getting warmer, and the sun overhead is slowly reaching the middle.
At this time, in the distance, there were officers and soldiers opening the way, Dali Siqing and Shuntian Mansion Yin himself both sat in their respective carriages, and entered the field with the officers and soldiers.
Behind them, there were thousands of officers and soldiers, escorting these dozens of prisoner carts, and in each prisoner cart, there were several prisoners.
They were the two hundred bandits, and dozens of clerks and dozens of people in the newspaper department.
Their faces were expressionless at the moment, and none of them showed a look of fear.
And the surrounding people did not throw rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves like they did with the prisoners in the past.
Because they know that these people should not be executed.
The huge execution ground, with more than 100,000 people, was very quiet.
Everyone stood quietly and watched quietly.
When several officials arrived in the middle of the execution ground, got up to the high platform and sat down, dozens of prisoner carts were opened, and 300 prisoners were brought out and stood on the execution ground.
Immediately afterwards, another group of officers and soldiers opened the way, and soon, the carriage of the right minister appeared, also arrived on the high platform, and sat on the main seat.
His face was not good-looking, because he found that there were many more people coming today than he had imagined.
And he also realized that in the face of so many people, it was impossible to use soldiers and horses.
"Xiangye, there are so many people today...... The lower officials are under a lot of pressure......" Shuntian Mansion Yin spoke.
The right minister snorted: "There is a true phase, what are you afraid of?" ”
As he spoke, he looked around and said, "Little princess...... Didn't come? ”
"It doesn't seem to be, but she may not be able to come, and the eldest princess will definitely stop it." Shuntianfu Yin said.
The right minister nodded and said, "The eldest princess blocking the little princess, it's not a big problem, without the little princess coming, we have a lot less pressure." ”
……
Outside the Dark Web!
At this moment, the little princess got up, took the six Shangshu and the directors of the Dark Web Division out of the gate together, and prepared to get on the carriage and go to the execution ground.
However, just then, Princess Celestia's carriage happened to come by.
The little princess frowned slightly, knowing that it was not good.
Then, the eldest princess got out of the carriage, looked at the little princess with a smile and said, "Third sister, I heard that you are in the Dark Web Division, so I came to look for you." ”
The little princess snorted: "What are you looking for me to do?" ”
"Isn't this tomorrow Women's Day, I thought, we have to prepare gifts for the queen mother, so come to you, go to the second sister's house together, and think about what we prepare for the queen mother." Princess Celestia said with a smile.
The little princess pouted when she heard this: "I have prepared it for the queen mother, eldest sister, you can discuss it with the second sister yourself!" ”
So saying, she was about to get into the carriage.
Seeing this, the eldest princess said, "Wait a minute, the third sister is in such a hurry, where are you going?" ”
"Eldest sister, didn't you ask knowingly?" The little princess said.
"Hehe, it's going to the execution ground, right? That place is overcrowded, and it is a place of head-killing, how can you, as a noble princess, go? If you go to such a place, won't it make your father and queen mother angry? ”
The little princess snorted and said, "I don't have to worry about this, because no one will be killed in today's execution ground." ”
Celestia still smiled and said, "I think someone will be killed, definitely!" ”
"I said no!" The little princess is-for-tat.
The eldest princess sneered: "That's better, let's make a bet." ”
"Okay, I'll bet that no one will die in the execution ground today!" The little princess said.
The eldest princess just smiled and said, "But you, you still can't go to the execution ground, as your eldest sister, I think I can still manage this." ”
The little princess looked at the eldest princess and said, "No, you can't control me!" ”
With that, she got into the carriage.
The eldest princess's face sank, and she said to her subordinates behind her: "Stop the little princess's carriage, resolutely not allow her to go to a place like the execution ground, and send her back to the palace." ”
The little princess poked her little head out of the carriage and said to everyone in the Dark Web Division: "Whoever dares to stop this palace will take it!" ”
Many secret guards in the Dark Web Division immediately drew their swords, hundreds of secret guards guarded around the little princess's carriage, and the six Shangshu and the five directors and adjutant Yu Ze also rode on horses and followed around the little princess's carriage.
The little princess glanced at the eldest princess and said, "Eldest sister, I'm afraid these dozens of people you brought can't be relied on by the little sister." ”
The eldest princess's face was not good-looking, and she said: "Third sister, you have changed, in just a few days, you have become so strong, are you still the gentle, cute, well-behaved and obedient third sister before?" ”
"Eldest sister, you are no longer the eldest sister you used to be, from the beginning when you dealt with Qin Ming, from the moment Qin Ming was my concubine, you have changed to me."
The little princess said, and sat back in the carriage.
At the same time, the voice continued to remember: "No matter when, I didn't think about hurting my two sisters. But you had people at the gates of the city and almost killed me with an arrow.
At that time, Brother Qin Ming wanted to kill you. But, I stopped because I still treat you as a big sister. It's a pity that under your desire for power, I'm afraid you have given up family affection. ”
"Third sister, what do you mean by that?" Princess Celestia suddenly roared.
The little princess was in the carriage, and said in a flat voice: "I don't care about what you did before. But what you're doing now, I have to stop. And what exactly you are doing, you know in your heart.
I remember a long time ago, my father said it. He will give us as much as he can to our sisters. But what he can't give, we must not want.
And you're trying to get what your father couldn't give you. You have been deceived even if you do not hesitate to hurt your loved ones. And I'm going to stop you! ”
After saying that, the carriage drove slowly.
The eldest princess was stunned in place, and on the side, her subordinates asked, "Eldest princess, do you want to do it?" ”
The eldest princess shook her head: "There are so many secret guards, you can't force your move, just let her go." My sister has indeed changed, she has always seen it very clearly......
It's a pity that no matter how much she understands, she can't change anything. Without Qin Ming, what can she do if she goes to the execution ground? It's just that you can see the results with your own eyes. ”
With that, she also returned to the carriage and said, "Go to the execution ground!" ”
……
On the side of the execution ground, Qin Ming was already full by the window on the third floor, sitting on a chair, looking at the execution ground in the distance.
"It's noon!" Luo Ziyi spoke.
Qin Ming nodded slightly and said, "Get ready, we may be on the stage!" ”
At the same time, on the execution ground.
The right minister stood up and said, "Noon has come, and today, on the execution ground, three hundred people will be executed." Forty-five of them were involved in the poisonous food in the snack bar, and after investigation, they deliberately harmed others and were sentenced to death.
Another 53 people were sentenced to death for participating in newspapers to propagate arbitrary discussions about government affairs and smear officials. The remaining 200 people were investigated as bandits in Heishizhai, so they were punished together and sentenced to death.
The above, all verified, respectively by the Dali Temple, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Shuntianfu investigation, by the Prime Minister issued an approval. Now, the hour has come, the prime minister himself supervises the beheading, executioner, prepare! ”
As he spoke, the right minister took out the order and was about to drop it.
