07 Speak for each other
And when the city lord walked in front of the criminal, he looked up at this person, "Originally, in the face of the city assistant, the lord only punished you with life imprisonment, but I didn't expect that you really didn't have the slightest gratitude, since this is the case, then I have to behead you!" β
The person in front of him is the one who gave birth to him but abandoned him, but this person is now saying to himself that he wants to behead himself, how ridiculous, even if he has hated him every night for the past ten years, but he still hopes that the person in front of him will regret what he has done, and then repent of what he did cruelly ten years ago.
However, all this is nothing more than their own fantasies.
"Kill me? I remember that there was a decree in the royal city that said: All the ministers have the right to sue the lord of the city, and even if they offend the Holy Hearing, they will not be held accountable. Excuse me, on what grounds did you behead me? The hatred of the heart tore his heart apart and shattered.
The lord of the city closed his eyes and did not speak again, but a sad look appeared on his face, as if he remembered the past that he did not want to remember.
But I heard Kong Jing come over and said deeply: "This decree does exist, but it has been abolished ten years ago, since the young master was abolished, in order to prevent those young masters who are defiled by the blood of demons, this decree was abolished, I didn't expect that the entourage around Lord Josuke would forget about it!" β
Is this decree repealed in order to prevent the minister from interceding on my behalf? Do you hate me so much? So why gave birth to me?
"It's... Lord, you must not execute him, but he isβ" Yu Yao was a little overwhelmed to stop the development of events.
"This person is not qualified!" The scoundrel interrupted him, "If you want to execute me, I'll do it!" But do you think I'm going to be at your mercy like I was ten years ago? He held his sword as if he were about to break out of the city.
Ten years ago? The city lord couldn't help but be a little moved, he looked at the guard in front of him with a broken arm and beard, although his face was not impressed, but those eyes, those eyes with stubbornness and hatred, had such a familiar feeling. However, just for this moment, after he regained his anger, he completely abandoned the familiar feeling, and just said coldly: "Do you want me to do it myself?" β
Ning Lu, who was worried on the side, saw that the situation happened like this, she seemed a little panicked, she knew the personality of the gangster, stubborn and reckless, but in such a dangerous situation, such a stubborn and reckless would only bring him disaster, he grabbed the hand of the gangster, shook his head at him and signaled, the gangster saw Ning Lu like this, and knew that she wanted to ask for mercy, but how could he do this? How could they listen to her advice?
Kong Jing received the order, and let his subordinates surround him, and the gangster drew his sword and forced them back, and he faced Kong Jing, his eyes glowing with a cold cold light.
"What to do? Just watch him get captured and beheaded? Jielan didn't know why she was worried about the person in front of her, but she couldn't help but be afraid, afraid that he would be captured by Kong Jing, and then there would be no way to live.
"If you're willing to ask me to save him, I might as well consider saving him!" Qing Zhan deliberately reminded Jielan. It was as if as long as the woman in front of him was willing to bow her head in front of him and beg for mercy, he would be willing to do anything for her.
However, Jielan looked at him with great disgust, although she wanted to save that person, as long as she thought of asking for a request to the person in front of her who had been rude to her, Jielan was unwilling to speak. She gripped the Yanlin sword tightly and walked in the direction of the besieged criminals!
Would you rather save yourself than beg me? Qing Zhan frowned, looking a little lost, and he stood up and grabbed Jielan. Jielan looked back at Qing Zhan, a little puzzled and a little surprised!
Because it was the first time she had seen him with a hint of sadness.
However, he soon regained his arrogant and somewhat wicked smile and said, "What a gentle person, in that case, Benjun has no habit of forcing others!" He pulled Jielan behind him, walked towards the left front, and said, "It's really wonderful!" I don't know if this is an after-show that you arranged to welcome me, but if it is, it would be disappointing, I don't have the slightest interest in a show like yours! β
Yu Yao and Kong Jing saw that Qing Zhan suddenly came over to intervene, and they were busy stopping their subordinates who were still confronting the criminals, and hurriedly leaned over and saluted!
"It's offensive to let Shaojun see this fact at the feast, but for the sake of the city's decree, the last general can't take care of so much, but please forgive Shaojun!" Kong Jing replied unhurriedly.
"The lord of the city and the general say that this man has committed a crime?"
"Yes!" Kong Jing seemed to realize something and felt a little uneasy.
"But this gentleman doesn't necessarily, I think that this guard not only does not offend the city lord, but is defending the city lord, Chiyan City has such a soldier, but it is gratifying!"
The city lord and Kong Jing were obviously blushing with anger, but they didn't dare to attack in person.
"Shaojun said that this person is defending the master, but what is the reason?"
"I seem to remember that when the city lord and this general said that sword music is the voice of demons, I knew that it was disrespectful to the royal city to say this, if this monarch really investigates it, how can I easily forgive such a person who insults the king, but all the officials here did not say a word, only this person dared to come forward to stop it, if it weren't for the fact that there was still one person in Chiyan City who respected the holy music, how could this monarch really not pursue it, so I said that the city lord should praise this person, but is there a mistake?"
These words not only showed that the criminals were thinking about the safety of the city lord and Chiyan City, but also threatened them as Wang Cheng, so that no one in the palace dared to refute them, and even Kong Jing and the city lord did not know how to answer.
"A good sentence for the sake of the owner!" When the city lord said this, his eyes seemed to burst into flames, "Well, how can this lord blame such a loyal minister, and this matter will not be pursued!" β
Although he had been forgiven, the criminals felt that his hatred for himself had deepened, why did he want his mercy and let himself go, he couldn't help but sneer, and said, "No need, it's not for you that I stopped it..."
When the sinister wanted to refuse his forgiveness, he saw Jielan looking at him worriedly and shaking his head at her, and the sinner's suddenly broken heart suddenly had a trace of warmth, and he swallowed back his words, because this was Jielan's request, and he didn't want her to be embarrassed.
"Not what? What you want to say is not for the sake of the city lord, but for the sake of Chiyan City, right? Kong Jing wanted to seize this opportunity to make Qing Zhan unable to protect him, so as to provoke him to speak out about his disobedience later.
"Of course I'm thinking about Chiyan City, haven't you just heard Shaojun say that?" Although he was a little reluctant, he still fiercely returned to the air.
Ning Lu looked at the suddenly changed criminal, although happy, but even more sad, she looked at the woman in men's clothes on the side, and knew the answer, she seemed to really understand, in the heart of the criminal, that woman is irreplaceable, and herself, as if he was a poor fawn he picked up on the side of the road, and he was willing to follow him like a wagging tail and begging.
Qing Zhan thought that the criminals would not appreciate it, but fortunately, he finally changed his words, and he leaned close to Jielan's ear and whispered, "You interesting friend doesn't seem to be so stupid, I didn't expect my charm to underestimate you!" β
I don't know why, every time he helps himself, he should be grateful, but every time he gets help, his somewhat playful and frivolous words disgust him.
And when the criminals saw that Jielan and the young gentleman in front of him behaved so closely, they couldn't help but wonder what their relationship was? Why are we together?
But he couldn't ask that.
Seeing that the matter had subsided, Yu Yao hurriedly asked the city lord and the young monarch: "Now that this matter has been resolved, please come to the banquet and reopen the banquet!" β
The lord of the city glanced at the criminals, evidently still angry, as if a defeated lion had found an opportunity to take revenge and temporarily suppressed his anger, he returned to his seat and said to his ministers, "Have a feast!" β
Although the officials still had lingering palpitations, they still pretended to be calm and drank freely, and the sound of silk and bamboo also played in the pavilion, and the suffocating battle seemed to disappear in an instant.
And in this feast, it felt that only Jielan and Ninglu were so redundant, and the criminals looked at Jielan from time to time, Jielan felt his gaze, looked back, and smiled politely at him, and the criminals suddenly felt a trace of warmth in this cruel and ruthless city hall.
However, it was cold and condensed the sad heart of the deer!
