Chapter 80: The Pillar of Shame

The court was silent, waiting for Qi Yuan to pronounce the verdict on this woman's crime, and even the sixth prince Qi Yun didn't dare to speak out. It's just that one thing is certain is that she won't die, her royal brother won't kill her, and the pain of flesh and skin is definitely inevitable.

Falling snow is also quietly waiting for the judgment, her face is not wavering, she only hopes that this day will come soon. If she doesn't die, it's time to fight back, and she doesn't want to be slaughtered anymore. She is very beautiful today, such a beauty is enough to tug at every man's heartstrings, and such calmness is enough to pull everyone's nerves.

No one interceded for her, she didn't want the mercy of others, and the sixth prince wanted to speak but was rejected by Luo Xue with a look. No one knows what kind of judgment she will usher in, she and Qi Yuan are eye-to-eye, love and hate.

All the previous things came to her mind one by one, how could she forget his kindness to her?

Qi Yuan has been waiting for her to beg for mercy, but she was so stubborn that she didn't even say a word, and she gave her opportunities to show weakness again and again, but she let the opportunities pass away again and again. She has her dignity, and he has his majesty, which no one can infringe on.

"Open the dry building and erect the copper pillar!"

In just one sentence, the entire court was shocked, and the dry building was a tall building at the main gate of the palace. It is not only an arrow tower, but also a place to receive punishment, and a copper pillar stands on the dry tower. This bronze pillar is a pillar of shame erected since the founding of the country, this pillar is five meters high, and the column body is engraved with the picture of the eighteen layers of hell torture.

And this pillar faces the imperial capital, as long as people passing by from the root of the imperial city can see this pillar, and there are very few people who have been brought to this pillar to be tortured for hundreds of years. Most of the people who can climb this pillar are not mortals, this pillar is actually for royals, and once a member of the royal family commits a crime or makes a mistake, they will be taken to the dry building.

The people who were taken to the dry building were also branded with a disgrace from then on, and there was no way to continue living in the royal family, and they were either demoted or exiled. Once exiled, it is difficult for many people to continue to survive, and they are not even as good as ordinary people outside.

At this time, someone came out to speak, and he said: "This woman is not from Qi State, and she is not qualified to go to the pillar of shame at all. ”

Hearing the words "Pillar of Shame", Luo Xue was not surprised, and she didn't care about any reputation on her back.

Qi Yuan became angry, and said loudly: "Why is she not a person from Qi State, she is a person from Qi Country when she marries into Qi State, why do you have so many reasons and rules? This is a state affair and my Qi Yuan's family affair, how do I deal with her, can you control it?" Qi Yuan's heart was already unhappy, these ministers became more and more uninteresting, and seemed to forget that he was the king of this Qi country.

This sentence really worked, and the ministers didn't dare to make a sound, and someone shouted: "Open the dry building, raise the pillar of shame." ”

The people in the palace were all talking about the Pillar of Shame when they heard it, and everyone was guessing which prince or princess made the mistake, but everyone didn't guess that it was the snowfall. A forbidden army entered the palace, but was stopped by the sixth prince, he said: "Let her go by herself, all dodge!"

The emperor also signaled for her to go by herself, the forbidden army led the way in front, and Qi Yuan also followed out of Jianhe Palace.

"Strike!"

After speaking, the civil and military retreats all followed to the Qianlou, according to the last time the person was taken to the Qianlou, it has been 120 years.

When Qi Yuan said that he wanted to take her to the dry building, he had already tacitly agreed that she was his person, and this matter could not be changed. Hundreds of officials could not stop it, and one hundred and twenty years later, the pillar of shame was raised again, and this news alarmed the entire imperial capital.

The palace Chinese martial arts meander towards the palace gate, like a giant snake, and every step of the falling snow feels that the shackles in his heart are lightened again.

Suddenly the bell in the court was remembered, it was the sound of a "bell", and the whole court could hear it. This is the sound that must be sounded when the pillar of shame is raised, and when other major events happen in the palace, it will sound the alarm bells.

Falling Snow doesn't know if she dies on the pillar of shame or what, she treats this sound as if it were a death knell, and if this is the death knell then her countdown begins. In front of the falling snow, a copper pillar was erected on a city tower, and the copper pillar still shimmered in the sun.

This is the second time this bronze pillar has been raised after one hundred and twenty years, and the last time the person on this bronze pillar was when the third emperor of Qi was on the throne of King Lian, and his son was tied to this bronze pillar and punished with a hundred lashes after the failure of forming a gang. In the end, the prince was exiled and later died in exile.

This story is definitely not known, but it is clearly recorded on the pillar of shame, and everyone who is taken to the dry building must go to see the story on the pillar of shame. Let these people know how the previous ones were brought up, and the snowy feet stepped on the stairs.

Those civil and military officers can't go up to the dry building, Qi Yuan and the six princes went up to the dry building, which is the first building of the palace of Qi State. From the top of the building, you can see Kyoto in front of you, and at the foot of the Imperial Castle is a flowing moat, and beyond the moat are people walking back and forth.

When the pillar of shame was raised, the people outside the city gathered outside the moat, and they began to talk about it.

"One hundred and twenty years later, the pillar of shame has been raised in the palace, and any member of the royal family has made a mistake?" the people began to judge, and many people were very happy because they could meet the holy face today, and the Son of Heaven would appear on the dry floor.

Luoxue didn't know what the people outside the city were talking about, but she had already heard the noise outside in the palace, and she was getting closer and closer to the castle tower. The huge shadow of the copper pillar covered her eyes, and a cold air emanated from this copper pillar, which finally made Luoxue shiver.

"I don't know, it's been a hundred and twenty years since the pillar of shame has been raised, and the emperor will personally give the whipping. Someone answered.

The figure of the Son of Heaven was the first to appear in the city tower, and his upright figure, handsome face and majestic aura emanating from his body caused a commotion. At this time, someone recognized the Son of Heaven, and he said: "It turns out that the man who rode a horse in the imperial capital last year is the king today, is the woman next to him his concubine?"

"Yes, it seems to be? A man and a woman were a natural pair that day, it turned out to be the king and his favorite concubine!"

Hearing this, Qi Yuan remembered the scene when they went hunting last year and the two rode through the imperial capital. She was as beautiful as she is today, and when she saw the lantern, he bought it without hesitation.

Who would dare to say that it is not love?

The figure of Falling Snow appeared, and she was dressed exactly the same as when she went hunting that day, and when she appeared, the crowd stirred again. Someone pointed to Luoxue's thin figure and said, "It's her, the one who rode a white horse in the imperial capital that day turned out to be the imperial concubine." ”

Dressed in a pear flower robe, his long hair hangs down like a flowing waterfall, and his complexion is as pure as a fairy, and his temperament is elegant. A pair of white jade hands, her eyes are like blue water, and she is like a tree full of flowers when she stands.

"She is the imperial concubine and the princess of Zhaoping of Yunshang. Someone in the crowd said again, but the eyes of these people never left that elegant figure, and the person to be judged today turned out to be Princess Zhaoping of Yunshang.

The original anger of those people turned into nothing when they saw this woman with outstanding temperament.

"Ring the bell!" There was a shout from the dry tower, and the sound then reached the bell tower, only to hear the bell ringing.

Luoxue stood in front of the copper pillar, on which was the torture map of the eighteen layers of hell, and then there were a few "card rubs" and four locks appeared on the copper pillar.
