Chapter 338: Public Execution
Chapter 338: Public Executions
Lin Xiaofu looked at the meat strips again, felt that the color was strange, and wondered: "This ...... It's not like beef......"
"Can you eat what kind of meat it is?"
Ling'er tilted her head mischievously and smiled, "Guess what? ”
Lin Xiao put the meat strips into his mouth, chewed them carefully, and said tentatively: "It's like ...... Sandwiched with lamb? ”
Ling'er smiled, cocked her thumb, and picked up another strip of meat: "Try this again, you can guess your ability." ”
As soon as he heard this, Lin Xiao was not convinced at the time, and hurriedly opened his mouth to eat, and said in his heart that you did it on purpose, right?
I, the No. 1 foodie in the special combat team, am I wasting my reputation?
Lin Xiao closed his eyes, trying to discern the taste, and suddenly shouted, "It's rabbit meat!" ”
"Good skills, good skills,"
Ling'er clapped her hands and praised, "Brother, you are really the champion among the diners." ”
Lin Xiao smiled proudly: "Guessed right? ”
"Well," Ling'er smiled like a flower and said coquettishly, "This is made by kneading the calf leg meat and free meat together, and it took me half a day's work." ”
Looking at Ling'er with a happy face, Lin Xiao was speechless again.
This ancient woman is really stupid, she thinks about everything for men, but I have to say that having such a woman is really a man's great happiness.
"Delicious, right? Then eat more,"
Ling'er smiled sweetly and said, "Brother, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of you in the future and raise you to be white and fat." ”
Lin Xiao suddenly choked, white and fat? Like words? What do you think about raising pigs?
Besides, if Lu Hua knew about this situation, he wouldn't know what to think.
Alas! It's better to be honest and take the initiative to send this hot potato to the school, so that she can be a companion with Lu Hua.
That's right, it's right to raise Lu Hua to be fat for nothing!
Thinking of this, the corners of Lin Xiao's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but smile......
……
The two of them were joking while eating, and as soon as they were full, they saw Situ Zheng coming in.
After asking, he had already eaten, and when he saw that he was wearing a long coat, Lin Xiao remembered that he was coming to be a bodyguard again and accompany them into the city on the street.
Ling'er hurriedly cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, Lin Xiao and Situ were sitting and chatting for a few words, and then they also changed into his green shirt, which was already a little old, and shouted to Ling'er that she was about to leave.
Suddenly, someone behind him smiled softly.
Lin Xiao turned his head and saw that Ling'er was dressed like a fairy, her skin was better than snow, her long hair was shawl, and her complexion was so beautiful that it was impossible to look at.
Lin Xiao couldn't help but be stunned when he saw this girl's rather luxurious clothes that he had turned out of nowhere.
After a closer look, I saw that there was a colorful ribbon tied in her hair, and against the background of the snow-white skin, it was even more brilliant and delicate, and listening to her laughter like a pearl, Lin Xiao was unconsciously very emotional.
This little girl must have been born in a big family before, if she hadn't suffered from the war, such a beautiful girl would have been like Feng Suqin, who was cared for and spoiled by her family and parents.
Under the misery of the poor creatures, the child was displaced, and he was reduced to a begging flower child along the way.
However, despite this catastrophe and fleeing all the way, she would rather go hungry than be reluctant to give up this piece of clothing, which is obviously very cherished.
……
At that moment, the three of them went out, because Ling'er couldn't ride a horse, so she had to walk around, Ling'er looked east and west, and was happy like a little white rabbit, bouncing all the way.
After about half an hour, the three of them came to the street in front of the palace, which was the place where the public execution of the big traitor was gratifying.
Although Guangzhou City is still under military control for the time being, Lin Xiao did not let the military come forward for some major civil activities, but was fully presided over by Lian Chengbi and his "Guangdong Mission Office", so even Lin Xiao himself is just an ordinary spectator today.
Just a dozen days ago, Lianchengbi, who remained in the rear, was still organizing the people's spring plowing and production, and at the same time collecting useful people everywhere, waiting for the recovery of Guangzhou.
According to Lin Xiao's intentions, he will be appointed as the governor of Liangguang, and will be fully responsible for the governance of the rear of the army, including the entire territory of Guangdong, as well as Wuzhou, Yulin and other places in Guangxi, and the governor's palace will be located in Guangzhou.
Although he had not yet received an official appointment from the imperial court, as soon as he received Lin Xiao's notice, he rushed to the court with people day and night.
Since there was no official appointment yet, Lian Chengbi did not have an official seal in his hands, so he and his subordinates temporarily acted in the name of the "Guangdong Propaganda Office" to strive to calm the people's minds as soon as possible and resume production as soon as possible.
According to the advice of Lian Chengbi and his subordinates, the top priority of this reassuring the people is to publicly suppress the big traitor Shang Kexi, as well as the few hardcore cronies under him.
According to Lian Chengbi's idea, only by executing in public can the people raise their eyebrows and puff up, completely remove the shadows and doubts in their hearts, and they can fully trust the captive army and resume production with confidence and boldness.
Considering that Shang Kexi's public grievances in Guangzhou were great, and not killing them was not enough to anger the people, Lin Xiao did not object and agreed to publicly execute a group of prisoners.
……
When Lin Xiao and the others arrived, the street was already full of people and bustling, and they all rushed to see the excitement after hearing the news.
In order to make it easier for people to see the faces of the criminals, a huge high platform was erected in the street, and hundreds of soldiers of the captives formed a large circle in front of the high platform, blocking the people who were watching the excitement.
After waiting for a short time, a prisoner cart slowly drove from the palace, and immediately, a soldier escorted the prisoners one by one to the high platform.
Lin Xiao looked from afar, there were more than ten prisoners in the first batch, all of them were men, and the first one he knew, it was the puppet Pingnan Wang Shang Kexi.
It's just that at this moment, Shang Kexi has already lost his hair and face, and he has completely lost the backbone that a military general should have, and he saw him wearing shackles and chains, looking old and unstable, and finally he was carried on the high platform by two soldiers.
Soon, a group of death row prisoners were pressed to the ground, the executioner stood aside, everyone in the audience held their breath, the scene gradually quieted down, and the exciting moment was coming.
The next moment, the executioner verified his identity, and someone took the verdict and read it out in public.
Although some of the wording is obscure, the people understand that these people are all traitors, and they slaughtered the city in Guangzhou last year, so they were filled with righteous indignation and scolding, and the anger in their eyes could literally burn these national thieves to death.
Without any delay, as the verdict was read, the prison officer gave an order, blood splattered on the spot, and more than a dozen heads fell to the ground at the same time, and the surrounding area immediately erupted into long-lasting cheers.
"Well killed!"
"Kill, deserve ......"
"Cut down all the national thieves and avenge the unjust death of their relatives!"
"Kill all the traitors, chop them up and feed them to the dogs!"
After the "main course", immediately after the "main course", a small official simply cleaned up the execution ground, and dozens of people were escorted up, but it was the family members of those traitors, and suddenly, dozens of heads fell to the ground.
According to the advice of Lian Chengbi and his subordinates, these dozen traitors should all be punished by the three clans, and the big traitors should be punished by the nine clans.
To be honest, Lin Xiao himself did not agree with this harsh system of joint sitting, but according to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, this is an extremely normal move.
Considering that what these people had done was really despicable to the people of the world, and that Shang Kexi had great public resentment in Guangzhou, he did not resolutely oppose it, but only suggested that the scope of some executions be narrowed and that only the main family members of these people be executed.
