Chapter 125: Sophia's Trial
At noon, the city looks more majestic and magnificent in the sun, the air of the city echoes with the sound of boiling people, and countless people gather on the street to slowly swell forward, as if holding a grand celebration.
Zhang Tian, dressed in a magic apprentice suit, mixed in the crowd, lowered his head so that people couldn't see the face in his hat clearly, and followed the flow of people to the palace square in silence.
He quietly listened to the warm and joyful discussions around him, and the sneer on the corner of his mouth became thicker and thicker, today is really a good day to watch the head killing, but he may be about to disappoint them.
"There are so many viewers who come to see the number one beauty in the principality today. ”
"Wait a minute, it's a beauty without a head. ”
"You haven't heard yet, the first beauty of the principality has been broken by Princess Sophia!"
"Oh, no, that's not a pity. ”
"You'll see later, that's what my relatives in prison said. ”
"Hey, the beauty is broken, what else is there to see. ”
"Maybe you can see something more exciting, maybe Princess Sophia wants everyone to appreciate the beautiful body. ”
......
Zhang Tian stared coldly at the few idlers with lewd smiles on their faces, if it weren't for saving people and not startling the snake, he really wanted these people to shut up forever.
He couldn't do it now, but he stayed with them, consciously or unconsciously, and it took a long time to follow the crowd and finally come to Palace Square.
The Imperial Palace Square was surrounded by Imperial City guards, ordinary pikemen carrying iron spears to block people, and there were people dressed as warriors in the square, and the crowd did not dare to be too chaotic under such a powerful force town.
In the center of the square, a high guillotine was erected, and the strong man looked at the crowd with a cruel smile, as if he was very proud to be able to cut off the head of a noble beauty with his own hands.
Zhang Tianming waited in the crowd for a long time, and suddenly heard the sound of luxurious music in the palace, which made people feel a sense of dignity coming to their faces. The square fell silent in an instant.
His expression moved slightly, this kind of music was very different from the blowing and blowing of the grass platform team invited by the villagers when he was celebrating the New Year in Lijia Village, Shenzhou, and his mood was somehow a little nervous.
The gate of the palace slowly opened, and from inside came a large group of elite royal guards, and in the middle were three women dressed in aristocratic costumes, and countless people in the square quickly confirmed that they were the last members of the Fuman family.
"Look, the beautiful woman on the far left with a scar on her face is Miss Alice, and although her face is ruined, her figure is still very good. ”
"The older beauty in the middle is the Lady of the Fuman family. She really looks like a girl. ”
"Hehe, when the beheading is over, I will definitely collect the bodies of the three beauties, and I will have the capital to boast to others in the future. ”
......
"My poor Alice, you are so young. You shouldn't suffer with your family. The noblewoman who was supported by her daughter and Thea in the middle said sadly.
"Don't say that about Mommy, if it weren't for this face of mine. The family will not cause disaster because of this. It's me, I'm not the Undulman. Alice shed tears of self-reproach again, and her expression darkened.
"My child, you are as beautiful as the god Nas, and you are a treasure to me and the head of the family, don't blame yourself like this. The lady raised her hand in regret and gently stroked the scar on Alice's face.
"It's not fair. Obviously, His Royal Highness Ari is coming to pursue Miss, and now these tragedies are happening because of Sophia's jealousy, but no one has come out to help us with justice. Thea on the side cried and shouted.
"No one cares about this, and there are people from Sofia all around. Let's save some effort. Alice sighed faintly.
The three of them clasped their hands tightly, and suddenly talked about the interesting things they had in the family territory, and gradually their emotions were no longer so low, and they came to the moment when they were waiting for the verdict to be pronounced on the guillotine.
Zhang Tian saw the three Alices and was about to go out to save people, but he heard another burst of passionate music in the palace, and saw a large group of people appear on the balcony high in the palace.
There was a cheer from the people in the square, and he knew that it was the emperor of the principality who had come out, as if he had to make a final judgment.
Zhang Tian felt that the Fuman family was more or less a prestigious family, maybe this emperor could find out the truth and Alice's innocence, so he pressed the plan to save people immediately, and listened to what the emperor said first.
The reason why he stopped waiting for the emperor to speak was because the drama he watched the most when he was in Shenzhou was about the emperor's private visit, and in the end, all the good people were wronged, so there was some expectation in his heart.
There are soldiers and samurai everywhere, and there are countless masters, and it is better to wait and see if there will be a miracle.
Surrounded by a group of ministers, the Emperor walked to the balcony, cleared his throat and said in a majestic manner, "Ladies and gentlemen, today I pronounce the punishment of those who have committed the crime of collaborating with the enemy, and since they have also committed the crime of assassinating the Tes, it is decided that they will be immediately beheaded!"
There was a pause in the square, and suddenly there was a clamor of cheers like a rising tide, and everyone was praising His Majesty's wise decision, as if Alice were the three sinners.
The Emperor raised his hand, and the cheers quickly fell silent, and then he asked with satisfaction, "Lady Volman, Alice, do you have any other words?"
Alice and the three of them looked at the crowd around them who couldn't wait to watch the beheading, and then looked at the expressionless emperor ministers, and sighed helplessly.
"Well, if there is nothing to say, then the criminal law will be enforced. The emperor raised his hand majestically.
The executioner walked over and looked at the three girls with a happy face, thinking about who would be beheaded first.
"Wait. While everyone was waiting to see who would be beheaded first, an old voice suddenly sounded.
The emperor looked at the spectator stand in the square in disbelief, and said with a somewhat unhappy face, "If Dean Bert has anything else to say, let's wait until the execution is over." ”
"No, Your Majesty, I ask you to pardon Alice, for all these charges have nothing to do with her. Bert slowly stood up from the stands and said, looking at Alice with a look of pity on his face.
Alice did not expect Dean Bert to speak for herself, and looked at him gratefully, but immediately lowered her head again.
"Dean Bert, please save my child for the sake of the past, she is innocent in this incident. The lady grabbed Alice's hand and shouted to Bert.
Regardless of the fact that she was about to go to the guillotine, she asked Dean Bert for help, "Lord Dean, please help Miss Alice, she really doesn't know what the head of the family has done, and she doesn't know about Tes's affairs, please believe me." ”
Bert said to the Emperor again, "Your Majesty, don't kill the wrong good people, Alice is a simple good boy, and it is absolutely impossible for her to participate in those crimes." ”
The Duchy Emperor touched the gray beard in embarrassment, in fact, he already knew that the Fuman family was not guilty, but the princess of the upper kingdom pointed out that she would not let Alice and the others go, so she hesitated for a long time.
The square was silent, and the executioners stopped the execution, all eyes on their emperor, waiting for the final decision.
The emperor felt that he had killed an innocent noble girl like this, and he was also very unhappy in his heart, and he didn't want to offend the princess of Shangguo, so he couldn't help but look behind him.
I saw Sofia, who was dressed in full costume, smiled and slowly stepped forward, and said politely to the Duchy Emperor, "Your Majesty can consider executing the first evil, Alice and I are very good friends, I really don't want her to be implicated and die like this." ”
Ari looked at Sofia in surprise, not knowing what the princess wanted to do, but at the thought of the wound on Alice's face, he shook his head gloomily.
The Duchy Emperor breathed a sigh of relief, and finally gave an account to Dean Bert.
But Sofia added, "Alice no longer has family protection, so it is better to be my maid, she will be well taken care of." ”
A trace of unbearability flashed on Ari's face, and Sofia clearly wanted to torture Alice, but she didn't say anything.
The Duchy Emperor nodded, "Princess Sofia is really merciful, and I will pronounce the final verdict." (To be continued......)
