Li Xuan's eyes were carefully observed in the crowd, he believed that Xiao Lingwei must be here, but there were too many people around, Xiao Lingwei must have been disguised, he looked at it for a long time, but he didn't find Xiao Lingwei's figure, and he couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

There were archers all around the execution ground, as long as Xiao Lingwei appeared, those archers would shoot her, and he had overheard the emperor's words outside the palace: "Don't care about those people, as long as you can kill Xiao Lingwei, it doesn't matter how many people die." ”

He looked at the people crowded around again, many of them came to see the excitement without knowing the truth of the matter, and some of them knew something about the inside situation with complicated expressions, but they were completely unaware that danger was around them.

What should he do?

Suo Meng stepped forward to remind him: "Your Highness, the hour is almost up. ”

Li Xuan looked at the sky, and then said: "Death row prisoners also have human rights, let their sons go and say goodbye to them." ”

Suo Meng was quite puzzled by the word "human rights" in Li Xuan's words for a while, but after a little pondering, he understood. After thinking about it, this request was very legitimate, so he rushed to Xiao Lingfeng and Xiao Lingyun and shouted, "You two, go and say goodbye to your parents." ”

With permission, Xiao Lingfeng and Xiao Lingyun quickly rushed to the execution platform, knelt in front of Xiao Linhui and Yang Huijun, and cried: "Dad, mother, I'm sorry, it's the child who is incompetent." ”

When Xiao Linhui and Yang Huijun saw the two of them, their noses were sore, and tears flowed down.

"Good boy, I don't blame you, don't blame yourself."

Tang Jiaojiao and Kang Chuchu next to them and the two children shouted to them, and they knelt over again, each hugging the child and crying.

The painful scene of them hugging their heads made the people around them sad, and some soft-hearted people cried along with them.

Suddenly, there was a cry at the execution ground, miserable and miserable, so not sad.

Suo Meng was upset when he heard this, and shouted loudly: "Don't cry, pull them away, it's time to execute." ”

The two guards immediately walked towards the execution platform, but Li Xuan shouted: "Stop, the hour has not yet come." ”

The two guards stopped and looked at Suo Meng.

Suo Meng looked at the sky, endured it in his heart, waved his hand at them, and motioned for them to go back.

"Stop, someone."

"I'm a descendant of the Xiao family, and I'm here to bring something to eat to Lord Xiao."

A woman dressed in a turquoise dress appeared at the execution site carrying a food box and was stopped by the guards.

The guard waved away: "Let's go, let's go, no food is allowed here." ”

"But..."Yahuan was very persistent, and wanted to rush in with the food box, which immediately aroused the vigilance of the guards.

They drew their sabers, surrounded the maids, and scolded, "Go back quickly, or don't blame us for being rude." ”

"Wait."

Pingfu walked over and said to the guards, "Your Highness has an order, let her in." ”

The guards hesitated, but finally put away their sabers and let them in.

Pingfu led Yahuan to the torture platform, and asked in a low voice, "Miss Lanxiang, why are you here?" ”

Lan Xiang whispered: "Miss asked me to come..."After speaking, he suddenly realized that Pingfu was no longer the Pingfu of the past, he was the one who came to arrest the fourth prince of the master, and immediately closed his mouth.

"Miss Xiao is here?" As he spoke, Ping Fu raised his head and looked around, trying to search for Xiao Lingwei's traces.

Lan Xiang said: "I'm talking about the eldest lady - and the prince and princess asked me to come." ”

Ping Fu glanced at her, who are you fooling, Xiao Hui's relationship with Liufang is not good, how can she send someone to deliver food, but she just doesn't trust him.

He knew that now the people of the Xiao family would no longer trust the master as before, let alone tell the truth to the master's person, that is, to him.

Pingfu didn't expose her, didn't ask any more, and silently led her to the execution platform.

"If you have anything to say, say it quickly, the hour is coming." After Pingfu finished speaking, he left the space to the people in the sixth room of the Xiao family, and went back to report to Li Xuan.

Seeing Lan Xiang, Yang Huijun was very surprised, Lan Xiang was sent by her to escort Xiao Lingwei away, at this time, she subconsciously looked into the crowd.

Although it was densely packed with people, she couldn't find Xiao Lingwei, but she knew that Xiao Lingwei must be here.

She was anxious, and she didn't forget to lower her voice: "Why are you here?" Weiwei, is she here too? ”

"Hmm." Lan Xiang took out the food in the food box, lowered her head and pretended to put the food seriously, but in fact, she said quickly: "Miss has drugged the dish, as long as you eat it, you will soon faint, causing the symptoms of fake death, and when the time comes, Miss will find a way to rescue you." ”

What the?

Xiao Linhui and Yang Huijun heard it clearly, and both of them showed surprised expressions at the same time.

"Sir, madam, the slave is incompetent, so I can only cook some food, so that you can eat enough and go on the road." Lan Xiang spoke loudly.

Xiao Lingfeng and Xiao Lingyun on the side also heard Lan Xiang's words clearly, the two glanced at each other, and there was a look of surprise in their eyes, if this is the case, then the father and mother will be saved.

Thinking of this, they helped bring some food to feed their wives and sons, while Lan Xiang waited on Xiao Linhui and Yang Huijun.

Suo Meng stood on the stand, looking at the execution platform for a while, looking at the crowd below, and then looking at the sky, urging Li Xuan: "Your Highness, the time has come, it's time to execute." ”

Yang Bohan suddenly spoke up: "Prisoners are also human beings, can't they be fed before they are executed?" ”

Suo Meng shot back: "Your Majesty has a decree, and the execution must be carried out at noon, does General Yang want to resist the decree?" ”

Before Yang Bohan could speak, Li Xuan said: "The law is nothing more than human affection, let them finish it first." ”

Seeing that Suo Meng was about to speak, Li Xuan looked at him with a cold face: "All the consequences, this prince bears it." ”

Suo Meng opened his mouth, but finally didn't say anything and stepped aside.

At this time, Li Yong suddenly appeared at the execution ground.

He walked up to the stands and asked, "The hour has come, why don't you still be punished?" ”

Suo Meng took the opportunity to complain: "It was His Royal Highness that refused to allow the execution. ”

Li Xuan glared at him, arched his hand at Li Yong, and said, "Big brother, I want to wait for them to finish eating before executing." ”

"People are going to die, what are you going to eat?" Li Yong commanded loudly: "When the hour comes, the execution will be carried out." ”

"Wait." Li Xuan's face was very ugly, and after he hurriedly shouted to stop, he looked at Li Yong expressionlessly: "Big brother, I am the prison officer." ”

Li Yong glanced at him, "When the hour comes, but you don't give the order, do you want to disobey your father's will?" ”

"Of course not..."

"Since it's not, let's execute it." Li Yong's attitude was very strong, and he put on an appearance that if you don't give an order, I will give an order, so that Li Xuan has no objection.

But between the lightning and the flint, Li Xuan thought of an excuse again, he said: "Xiao Lingwei hasn't appeared yet, if you give the order now, wouldn't it be in vain?" ”

Li Yong looked at him like an idiot: "If you don't give an order, how can Xiao Lingwei appear before the critical moment?" ”

“......”

I thought it was a good excuse, but I didn't expect it to be vulnerable, Li Xuan had no choice but to take out the token and say loudly: "The time has come, execution." ”
