Chapter 219: Ling Chi is executed
Ten years of Daxia Mingde, he controlled the government, formed a party for personal gain, was corrupt and extravagant, and assassinated the first emperor......
The son of the official who committed the eighteen major crimes, the eunuch Wei Yunshu, was jointly participated by the government and the opposition, and the young emperor was furious and immediately ordered someone to arrest him and put him in prison.
The prisoner, Wei Yunshu, confessed to all his crimes, and his only request was to exchange the immediate punishment of beheading for Ling Chi. Everyone in the world is greedy for life and afraid of death, Wei Yunshu played one after another, and the young emperor finally agreed.
The crimes committed by the Wei prisoners are too numerous to mention, and on the day of execution, the people are empty, vying to watch, and the people hate it, and the people are vying to eat every piece of their flesh.
——"The History of Mingde in Great Xia: The Biography of Shechen"
Regarding Wei Yunshu's deeds, there are only a few short sentences in this "Biography of Shechen". The people of later generations only know that there was such a eunuch eunuch in the Mingde period of Great Xia, who was completely bad, not only could not live with Emperor Mingde, but also could not live with the people of Limin, in short, it was a lot of crimes. But they couldn't say what the crime was, not only for the people of later generations, but also for the people of the present world.
They just knew that this eunuch named Wei Yunshu was a big bad person, that he had intercepted the taxes that should have been reduced or reduced, that he had embezzled the money of the sergeant's family members who should have been beneficial, and that he had caused the epidemic that had been circulating before......
"Listen, this is a grievance, isn't it? It's scary. ”
In the middle of the edict, the national teacher sat on the main seat, looked at the inhuman-shaped person hanging on the torture rack, and showed a satisfied smile.
"Wei Yunshu, Wei Yunshu, tell me why are you doing this? Have you done the 18 deadly sins? You don't, not only do I know this, but Your Majesty also knows it, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty know it, but will they stand up and say it? How can it be?! Isn't this the best time to put all the blame on you? Listen, even bullying men and women has come out. You're really bad, why are so many people not used to you? I see that there are so many officials in the government and the opposition, and none of them have interceded for you, which shows how bad your popularity is. Tut-tut, I'm a little unbearable. ”
Wei Yunshu was covered in blood, but only one face was intact, which was exactly what the national teacher requires. It's a pity to ruin such a beautiful face, even if you are executed later, you can't do anything on this face.
Hearing the words of the national teacher, Wei Yunshu did not waver in the slightest, he just looked up at the small window of the cell, and observed the sky outside through that small window. It's almost dawn.
Seeing that Wei Yunshu was silent, and the national teacher didn't care, he seemed to be caught up in his own memories, and vented the long-pent-up emotions in his heart.
"I really think it's strange, people like you, people like you, who are obviously high up, who have not lacked anything since birth, can't live their lives well? You have to save this and save that. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is like this, and so are you. Do the fools outside of the outside really know the benefits of defeating Rong Di? They only knew that under the leadership of His Great Majesty, they had won a battle against a foreign race thousands of miles away. They are not frontier people, how can they know how terrible Rong Di is, how can they know what it is like to be trampled and ravaged? But will those whom you save know how well you are? Even if they do, do they know about what you are suffering now? Can they save you from fire and water? They can't! ”
"Did you hear Wei Yunshu, they can't. So I'm curious, do you regret it? ”
The national teacher stepped down from his seat, walked in front of Wei Yunshu, and looked at him covered in blood, revealing a sincere puzzled expression. Wei Yunshu didn't mind his expression, he just looked at the light that was gradually brightening, and suddenly remembered an old thing from a long time ago.
"The first emperor was actually a very smart person, and he was very good at controlling the imperial skills of the court. It's just that he doesn't love the country, he doesn't love his people. In his eyes, there is only himself. ”
"When the Wei family was destroyed, I had just been punished by the palace, and the first emperor summoned me, and he asked me, 'You have to live even like this, for what?' ”
"I said."
Even at this time, Wei Yunshu still remembers the scene of that day clearly, there is an incomparable light in his eyes, this light, from beginning to end, no matter how the world changes, whether the suffering is like a shadow, has never been extinguished.
"I said, 'I want to bring peace to Rongdi, clean the world, and restore peace and prosperity to the people of the world.'" ”
"Then, the first emperor gave me a chance and put a shackle on me, and I have done many things in my life to achieve this goal. There are good and there are bad...... I'm not a good person, and I don't have a clear conscience, I've spent half my life just for such a thing. Do you regret it after you ask me? No regrets. Even if I had to do it all over again, I would make the same choice. ”
Hearing this answer, the smile on the national teacher's face stiffened for a moment, then looked at Wei Yunshu coldly, then sneered and walked towards the prison door.
"Then I'll watch, how did you finish this torture with a thousand knives without regrets."
Hearing the footsteps gradually leaving, Wei Yunshu looked at the skylight and calculated the time, three days, the shortest three days, the result of this war should be transmitted to the imperial capital. After decades of planning, I still want to hear the final result with my own ears. If they die, who can be sure that there really is a soul? No matter what time it is, Wei Yunshu has always been Wei Yunshu, even if the surface is bright, but he will never allow anything to exceed his expectations.
"Bang", the cell door opened, the jailer walked in with the torture instrument, Wei Yunshu glanced at the Buddha beads hanging on his wrist, in the dimly lit prison, those finely carved beads seemed to be glowing. Slowly closing his eyes, Wei Yunshu showed a gentle smile.
"Immortality! Stop it! If you run like this, you'll be ruined! ”
Because he ran too fast, he hit a big tree, and the tree exploded directly into sawdust flowers, and Changsheng himself was also knocked all over the body, and his leg bones also made a dangerous clicking sound. Changsheng got up from the ground with a blank face, straightened his leg bones, and continued to run.
Anyway, she won't die, it's just this level of injury, it's just this level of injury, it's completely bearable.
Prior to this, the Yuanji Impermanence Carp had already tried to come out of the immortal dantian, but as soon as it showed a little tip of its tail, the heavenly thunder snapped and slashed down neatly, directly splitting the location of Changsheng at that time into a big pit with a radius of dozens of zhang! Everywhere they went, everything perished.
As a result, Changsheng could only rush by himself. But is it really too late?
If it's in time, it's in time! Because......
"I gave him a string of Buddhist beads, as long as it was not fatally wounded, it could keep him alive for a few days. Even if something really happens to him, the court will have to go through a proper criminal trial process, and at the earliest, he will have to be beheaded in the autumn harvest at the earliest. ”
That being said, in fact, even Changsheng himself doubted this time. Wei Yunshu is not a simple ordinary official, once he shows his decline, his enemies will bite him like a madman, and now, he can only hope for Wei Yunshu himself.
Don't give up, Wei Yunshu, don't give up! Don't make me look down on you!
When I coded these chapters, I always felt that my mood was very complicated......
Alas......
