Three hundred and eleven, put to death
When Zhang Xiaotian died, Zhou Yunxi was taken to the execution place by Xu An in disguise, the place was in the vegetable market in the east of the city, it was dirty and messy, and there were some dried blood stains around it, and there was also a faint smell of blood.
This place is the place where death row prisoners are executed, and even if there is rain, there is no way to cover up the smell of blood, and there is no way to completely wash away the blood stains here.
In this regard, the people are not surprised. If it weren't for the fact that the person to be executed today was the prime minister of the dynasty, they would not have exchanged heads and whispered to each other.
"Is the emperor really willing to do it?"
Zhou Yunxi was a little unconvinced, although she tricked Zhang Xiaotian in front of the emperor, she would definitely not let the emperor kill Zhang Xiaotian. So there must be other causes.
"You don't know?"
Hearing Zhou Yunxi say this, Xu An's face was a little surprised. Seeing that Zhou Yunxi was still at a loss, he sighed leisurely, unable to tell what his emotions were.
"The Prime Minister's Mansion discovered the dragon robe and the crown, and the affairs of the eldest prince and the second prince have been related to the prime minister." Xu An's eyes looked at Zhang Xiaotian, who was kneeling on the ground, embarrassed, "You also know that the second prince is dead, the eldest prince is disabled, even if the emperor wants to protect Zhang Xiaotian, how can the courtiers agree?" ”
"The emperor didn't investigate thoroughly?"
Zhou Yunxi knew that Zhang Xiaotian was smart, so the dragon robe and the crown would be found to be definitely not Zhang Xiaotian's own carelessness. In this way, it is not difficult to guess who did it.
She could guess something, how could the emperor not be suspicious? What's more, the emperor has trusted Zhang Xiaotian for so many years, how could he so easily condemn Zhang Xiaotian to death?
"The emperor is the most ruthless." Xu An smiled when he saw Zhou Yunxi's face like this, his eyes were a little dark, "That's a dragon robe, not something else, how can the emperor tolerate someone who has the intention of usurping the throne?" Moreover, Zhang Xiaotian killed several court officials and concubines back then, how could those adults let him go? ”
This remark made Zhou Yunxi speechless for a moment.
"It's noon! Execute! ”
With a high shout, the executioner lifted the wine jar resting at his feet, poured it violently, and then sprayed wine at the big knife, and the knife fell to the ground.
Such a scene made Zhou Yunxi close his eyes, don't look over, and make it clear that he doesn't want to look at it anymore. Seeing her like this, Xu An didn't say much, and he didn't mean to stay for a long time.
I saw her reach out and hold Zhou Yunxi's arm, and said softly: "Let's go, let's go back." ”
Xu An's indifference made Zhou Yunxi a little surprised in her heart, as far as she knew, Xu An was just a medical girl who was placed in the Tai Hospital to study and had the name of Miss Qianjin.
It stands to reason that the sight of Zhang Xiaotian's head falling to the ground, even if Xu An is not afraid, should not be so indifferent. Xu An seemed to notice Zhou Yunxi's eyes, so he smiled.
"How could the prince leave useless people in the palace." Xu An's voice was very soft, she was Chu Ci's person, and Lord Xu didn't know about this matter, "I used to enter the palace to check my brother's affairs, and I didn't have any skills, how could I survive until now." ”
"It's me who is narrow-sighted."
Zhou Yunxi understood this as soon as he heard it, so he laughed.
Yes, although Chu Ci looks harmless, no matter how you look at it, he doesn't want to be a person who can do 'good deeds' for nothing. Since Xu An has something to ask for, Chu Ci naturally has a calculation.
In this way, Chu Ci will not lose money.
"Zhang Xiaotian is really dead?"
Xu Ning was sent to the door of Xu's house by Ling Xiao, after all, An Yu is not suitable to come over now, and if Zhou Yunxi does not have a trusted person by his side, it is not very convenient to be in the Xu family. Hot search
And when Xu Ning saw Zhou Yunxi, he had been waiting in front of the gate of the Xu family for a long time.
"Aning?" Zhou Yunxi was a little stunned when he heard Xu Ning's voice, but after a while, he calmed down, "Who sent you here?" ”
"Lingxiao." Hearing Zhou Yunxi ask, Xu Ning also replied cleanly, "Miss, Zhang Xiao Tianguo's real head has landed, is there any possibility of survival?" ”
"What do you say?"
Zhou Yunxi squinted, and saw that Xu An left by himself after entering the Xu family, and there was no one else around, so Zhou Yunxi hooked the corners of his lips.
"A-Ning doesn't understand."
Xu Ning couldn't figure it out, she didn't see Zhang Xiaotian die with her own eyes, and she didn't know the inside story of the matter, at this time Zhou Yunxi's face was so unpredictable, Xu Ning was somewhat unclear.
"When Zhang Xiaotian died, it was too quiet."
Zhou Yunxi's voice was very soft, but Xu Ning could hear it clearly. How could a person like Zhang Xiaotian be willing to wait for death? Even at the last minute, he should have struggled.
Too quiet, of course, suspicious.
"I heard that Jin Liu is being locked up in the Hou Mansion dungeon?" Zhou Yunxi thought for a while, "What is Sister Yu going to do?" ”
"Torture him." Xu Ning only sighed lightly when he heard Zhou Yunxi ask about An Yu, and his face looked a little distressed, "I haven't eaten and slept well for several days in a row, and I haven't even drunk much water, and I spend every day in the dungeon with Jin Liu, and the dungeon is not a roar, and it can be seen that Sister Yu's appearance seems to have nothing to do." ”
"What about Qin Yi?"
Zhou Yunxi had expected that An Yu's mood would be wrong after all, but at this time, she had no way to return to the Hou Mansion, so she couldn't calm An Yu down. Now there is only one Qin Yi in the Hou Mansion who can persuade An Yu.
"Sister Yu eats and drinks water because Qin Yi is staring at it, if Qin Yi is not there, she will not move." Xu Ning said and sighed lightly, "I went to see Jin Liu's guy before I came, and every good place on his body." ”
"This is what he owes to the An family."
Hearing Xu Ning say this, Zhou Yunxi only snorted coldly.
In any case, Jin Liu was indiscriminate, and he directly destroyed the An family without even evidence, which is absolutely unreasonable.
Of course, Xu Ning knew it in his heart, so he didn't refute it at this time. The reason why she mentioned Jin Liu's situation was only because she was worried about An Yu's state.
If An Yu's body was really dragged down because of Jin Liu's matter, the gains would naturally outweigh the losses.
"Sister Yu also told Jin Liu that the son of the Xu family hates all the Jin family, including Jin Liu." Xu Ning lowered his voice when he thought of that, so as not to be heard by others, "Jin Liu, now, is also going crazy." ”
"The promise was never said—"
Zhou Yunxi's words stopped as soon as he spoke, and he was stunned for a moment. An Yu must have done this to torture Jin Liu, as for how to make Jin Liu believe...... Zhou Yunxi suddenly remembered the jade plate he had given to An Yu before.
If you think about it carefully, it should be with that jade card.
"That's it."
Zhou Yunxi thought that he had never mentioned going to Jin's house until the beginning of the promise, so he dispelled the idea, if he knew about Jin Liu's matter after the promise, it would not be too late to talk about it.
