Chapter 367: The Eve of the Execution
Late at night, the bedroom of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
On the bed, King Li Dan and the princess were sleeping soundly, but the princess seemed to be sleeping a little unsteadily and had nightmares.
The princess's dream: On the execution ground, Tianbao was escorted to the guillotine with his hands tied and shackled on his head.
Tempo cried out in terror, "Help me, save me......"
Outside the execution ground, the princess was in a hurry and shouted, "Don't kill my son, don't, don't kill my son...... crying and ran over, but was stopped by the soldiers......
Tianbao struggled and shouted, "Wronged, I wronged, save my ......" but was held down by the soldiers, unable to struggle......
The warden took a token, groaned slightly, threw it down and shouted, "Slash."
The princess exclaimed, "No, don't ......," but was stopped, and watched as the executioner pulled out the slug and sprayed a mouthful of liquor on the broadsword...... Raised the broadsword with a swipe on the ground...... In the exclamation of the princess "Longji", he slashed down with a knife......
"Longji", the princess woke up with a shout, sat up, covered in cold sweat and frightened......
Li Dan was awakened, sat up and said, "Madam, what's wrong with you? Such a sweat ......."
The princess looked around in horror and said hurriedly, "King Xiang, where are we, where are we?"
Li Dan hurriedly got up and went to the table to light the candles, and came back and said, "What's wrong with you, this is the Prime Minister's Mansion."
The princess was puzzled, "Prime Minister's Mansion?"
Li Dan nodded and said, "Yes, what's wrong?"
The princess suddenly realized, and then felt sad in her heart, leaned on Li Dan's arms and cried: "King Xiang, the concubine is so scared, King Xiang......
Li Dan comforted: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I'm here."
After a while, the princess calmed down a little and said carefully, "Are you having a nightmare?"
The princess nodded and said, "I dreamed of our godson Tianbao."
Li Dan was surprised, "Tianbao?"
The princess nodded and said, "Well, I dreamed that he was escorted to the execution ground by officers and soldiers...... and said urgently, "King Xiang...... The concubines are really scared, King Xiang."
Li Dan comforted: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, it's just a dream, not real......
The princess wondered, "Not really? However, when the concubine heard him shouting for me and shouting for help, the concubine was really scared...... King Xiang, Tianbao will be beheaded tomorrow, you hurry up and find a way to save him, the concubine begs you."
Li Dan sighed and said, "Madam, it's not that I don't want to save it, it's really powerless." A sigh......
The princess was disappointed for a while, and wept and said, "Tianbao...... My poor Celestial ......."
Li Dan couldn't help but feel gloomy for a while......
The day will be dawn, and the prison of the Criminal Department of Luoyang, the capital.
In the deserted cell, Zhang Laosan was curled up and lying in the pile of firewood and grass.
At this time, Zhang Laosan suddenly covered his stomach and struggled and groaned, crawled to the cell door with difficulty, and shouted urgently: "Help, help...... and foam kept spitting out foam......
Finally crawled to the cell door, spasmed, struggled a few times, and did not move, and foam continued to bubble out of his mouth......
At this time, two jailers ran in when they heard the sound, and they were shocked when they saw this, and Jailer A hurriedly leaned down to sniff and was shocked.
Jailer B hurriedly said, "How is it?"
Jailer A hurriedly said, "He's dead."
Jailer B was surprised, "Dead?"
The jailer hurriedly said, "You are guarding here, and I will go and tell your lord immediately." As he spoke, he ran away.
Jailer B looked at Zhang Laosan's death in horror and was terrified......
In the second half of the night, the mortuary of the Criminal Department in Luoyang, Beijing.
Zhang Laosan's body was parked in the middle, the lower half of his body was covered with a layer of white cloth, and he was checking the corpse, Lord Chen and the little official were watching from the side, and everyone looked solemn.
After a while, he took out a silver needle from Zhang Laosan's mouth, looked carefully, and saw that the tip of the silver needle was pitch black.
Everyone was shocked, and Master Chen hurriedly said, "What's going on?"
He hurriedly bowed down and said, "Lord Hui, this proves that this person died of poisoning."
Master Chen was surprised, "Poisoned?
How is this possible, the prisoner in the prison eats the same kind of food, and what he eats is strictly examined, how can he be poisoned?"
"If the poison wasn't in prison," he thought, "it's possible that he was poisoned before he came in, and it's only now fatal."
Lord Chen was taken aback.
In the second half of the night, the study of the Criminal Department of Luoyang, the capital.
Lord Chen and the little official were discussing something.
Master Chen wondered, "What do you think about this?"
The little official bowed down and said, "My lord, it seems that someone must have deliberately poisoned him in advance, in order to prevent this Zhang Laosan from continuing to speak."
Master Chen nodded and said, "Well, this official also thinks so, so who do you say is this poisoning and murder?"
The little officer pondered, "...... For a while, I really couldn't figure out who would poison and kill people."
Master Chen was surprised, "Even you can't think of it?"
The little official pondered, "My lord, it seems that this case is not simple."
Lord Chen said bitterly, "I also know that it is not simple, but you said that now such an important person is dead in the prison of the Criminal Department, how do you say that this official will explain to the emperor?"
The little official wondered, "My lord, didn't you say it just now? The poison in this prisoner was before entering the Punishment Department, but it just happened to occur in the Punishment Department, which has nothing to do with you at all, at most, the emperor will only blame you for a crime of negligence."
Master Chen was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized: "Yes, why did this official forget this, what does the poison in this prisoner outside have to do with my criminal department? Hey, I'm really confused."
The little official laughed, and Lord Chen said, "Since this matter has nothing to do with my criminal department, then you should hurry up and draft a notebook, and this official will report to the emperor tomorrow."
The little official hurriedly bowed and said, "It's my lord." After a moment's thought, he said, "Your Excellency."
Master Chen wondered, "What's wrong?"
The little official reminded: "Although this matter has nothing to do with adults, but my lord, I am afraid that this case will still have to be investigated by our criminal department in the end."
Master Chen was puzzled, "Check? Just investigate, there are so many people in the Criminal Department, are you afraid that you won't be able to find out?"
The little official hurriedly said, "Yes, my lord said yes."
Lord Chen stretched his waist, yawned and said, "Hey, I was woken up in the middle of the night and was sleepy, okay, then the next thing will trouble you, this official will go and make up for sleep first." As he spoke, he walked outside.
The little official hurriedly bowed down and said, "Send it to the adult." Respectfully send Master Chen out......
In the second half of the night, the capital Luoyang Shilixiang.
Sister Xiu's room, Sister Xiu pushed the door out, walked to the corridor facing the courtyard, leaned on the railing and looked into the courtyard, feeling depressed......
At this time, she saw the green girl's room open with a "squeak", Sister Xiu looked back, but saw the young girl pushing the door out of the door, and the two looked at each other in surprise.
After a while, the two stood by the railing, and Sister Xiu sighed, "I really don't know what tomorrow will bring?"
The young girl said, "I'm ready, even if I want to wash the entire execution ground in blood, I will save him."
Sister Xiu was taken aback, hesitated and nodded, "If I really want to come this far, I won't hesitate."
The young girl nodded, "Yes."
Sister Xiu thought for a while and said, "But I really don't want to come this far and hurt the innocent too much." In a blink of an eye, I saw that Aixue's room was still lit, and I was stunned......
At this time, I saw the door of Lux and Xiaoyu's room creak open...... The four of them looked at each other in surprise......
At the side of the railing, Sister Xiu was surprised: "You ......."
Lux said sadly: "Tianbao, he will go to the execution ground tomorrow, how can we sleep."
Sister Xiu was gloomy for a while, pulled Xiao Yu and said, "Don't worry, we will definitely rescue Tianbao."
Lux nodded and said, "Well, Tianbao, he will be fine."
……
In Aixue's room, Aixue opened the cabinet, was packing up her clothes, took out a Tianbao dress, saw a patch on it, was stunned, and stroked the clothes
Serving, I can't help but fall into the memories:
One day, in the room, Ai Xue was packing up her clothes, Tianbao was reading a book at the side table, Ai Xue took the dress, saw a hole, took it and said, "You see that this dress is so old, and it has a hole, it is better to throw it away."
Tempo wondered, "Really? I'll see." After looking at it, he said, "It's not that old, I can wear it for a while if I fill this hole."
Aixue nodded and said, "Then I'll help you make it up."
Tianbao said, "You work so hard, I'll just make it up myself." As he spoke, he stood up.
Ai Xue hurriedly grabbed and said, "Hey, I'm coming, what's so hard about this, this is what I should do as a lady." As he spoke, he went over and got a needle and thread.
Tianbao was helpless for a while, and hurriedly said, "You be careful."
Aixue looked for the needle and thread, and said without looking back, "Got it."
……
Tianbao sat at the table and continued to read the book, Ai Xue sat on the side and sewed carefully, and finally sewed the broken thread, happily picked it up and looked at it, but said entangledly, "Hey, it's ugly and dead."
Tianbao turned his head, took it and looked at it and smiled, "No, how can it be ugly?"
Ai Xue hurriedly said: "You don't come, it's ugly to die, give it to me, I'll tear it down and sew it again......" said and reached out to grab it.
Tianbao hurriedly said, "I really don't have to bother, I can wear it."
Ai Xue hurriedly said, "It's so ugly, how can I wear it, you give it to me."
Tianbao held Aixue's hand and said, "As long as it is sewn by you, no matter how ugly it is, in my eyes, it is the best."
Ai Xue said shamefully, "Hey, it's numb." Hurriedly withdrew his hand, but wiped the thorn on the side of the table, and exclaimed, "Ah." Cover your hands.
Tianbao was startled and hurriedly said, "What's wrong?" Pull the love of the snow hand.
Ai Xue hurriedly said, "My hand was stabbed by the thorn of the table."
Tempo was surprised, "Really? I'll see." As he spoke, he looked at Aixue's hand carefully, and said, "Found it, found it, I'll help you pull it out." Carefully help Aixue pull out the thorns......
……
Aixue held her clothes in her arms and stood in front of the cabinet in a daze, tears couldn't stop overflowing her eyes, and said sadly: "Tianbao, I miss you so much, Tianbao......
At this time, the door squeaked open, Sister Xiu, Qingnu, Lux and Xiaoyu walked in, and seeing that Aixue's expression was wrong, Sister Xiu hurriedly said, "What's wrong?"
Ai Xue said sadly, "Sister Xiu, I miss Tianbao so much." Leaning on Sister Xiu's arms and choking......
Everyone couldn't help but be gloomy......
After a while, everyone sat around the table, Ai Xue took the dress and said, "This dress is already very old, and it has a hole, Tianbao is reluctant to throw it away, saying that he can wear it for a while after repairing it, I helped him mend it."
Everyone was gloomy for a while, and Lux flipped through the clothes on the bed, wondering, "What are you doing at night? Do you want to wash it?"
Aixue said: "He hasn't changed his clothes for a few days, I want to pick out a good one and change it when he comes back tomorrow."
Everyone was stunned, and Lux hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, that's good, you don't have to look for it when Tianbao comes back, so Aixue, have you found a suitable one?"
Ai Xue shook her head and said, "I searched and searched, but I didn't find a suitable one, Lux, you can help me see which one is suitable."
Lux was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Okay, I'll help you take a look, I'll take a look." As he spoke, he walked to the cabinet and rummaged through, "Hey, there must be a suitable one for this cabinet, I'll take a look."
Ai Xue hurriedly said, "Be careful, don't break it."
Lux hurriedly said, "Oh, I see." Keep flipping.
Sister Xiu looked at Aixue and said worriedly, "Aixue, are you okay?"
Ai Xueqiang smiled, "I'm fine, I just want to find a suitable dress for Tianbao to wear."
Sister Xiu looked helpless for a while.
Lux flipped and flipped, and suddenly the golden bell rolled from the cabinet to the ground, and everyone was shocked.
Lux hurriedly said, "Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'll pick it up." As he spoke, he leaned over to pick up the bell.
At this moment, a burst of golden light flashed, and a rabbit appeared
The appearance of God happened to collide with the wrestler who looked up, and the two of them sat down on the ground with an "ah" scream.
The rabbit god struggled to his feet, and said angrily, "What the hell, hit me, hit me."
Everyone was shocked, and Lux covered his head and said in surprise: "Rabbit, rabbit god?"
The rabbit god was stunned for a moment, and said embarrassedly: "Hello everyone, I'm sorry, this immortal is late."
