Xiang Ye's fall was not light, Li You hurriedly walked into the room, ran to his side and leaned down to look, seeing him grinning teeth and humming on the couch with a painful face, Li You slightly relieved himself and turned back to Meng Su and said, "What are you doing here?" Xiang Zhuangshi has just been seriously injured, if you fall like this again, aren't you afraid of throwing him out of three long and two short? ”

Meng Su lowered her head in embarrassment and pursed her lips, she knew very well that she was too excited and made a mistake after hearing that Zhao Tong was going to frame Li You, so she didn't defend herself, she just stood aside like a child who had done something wrong.

Seeing Li You, Xiang Ye believed the sentence shouted by Meng Su, 'It took a lot of time for Lord County Shou to rescue you', and he reluctantly squeezed out a smile at Li You and said, "My lord, I don't blame him for this." ”

It was good that he didn't say that, but as soon as he said this, Meng Su suddenly felt even more embarrassed, his cheeks flushed with shame, and he almost didn't dig a hole in the ground.

"My lord, Zhao Tong wants to force me to make a false confession...... Xiang Ye glanced at Meng Su, turned his face to look at Li You, as soon as his words came out, Li You hurriedly waved his hand to stop him.

"Xiang Zhuangshi, you know all the lower officials you want to say, you can recuperate with peace of mind, and when you are healthy in a few days, the lower officials have one more thing they want to ask you." Li You pressed his hands on Xiang Ye's shoulders and looked down at him, from Li You's eyes, Xiang Ye could see an inexplicable trust, which was a kind of trust that should not be shown to a person who had just known him for a few days.

He didn't know what Li You wanted to ask him to do, but from Li You's expression, he could feel that what Li You wanted to entrust him this time must be very important, even more important than solving the cancer around Zhao Tong.

Li You didn't say what he wanted to entrust Xiang Ye with, and Xiang Ye naturally didn't want to ask, the two just looked at each other and smiled tacitly. Li You gently patted Xiang Ye's shoulder and said, "Xiang Zhuangshi, take care of your recuperation for some time, remember not to move at will, don't leave the root of the disease." ”

After visiting Xiang Ye, Li You gathered a group of Qin troops and escorted the warriors captured from Zhao Tong's mansion towards the city square.

It is said to be a square, but in fact it is just a large open space, which is a temporary school yard and a point general platform during the war, and when there is no war, it is a place of execution for criminals.

After learning the news that the county guard personally escorted the prisoners to the square, many civilians opened the doors and walked out of their homes, and the depressed Xingyang City became lively for a while.

More than a dozen of Zhao Tong's courtyard warriors were raised from their cells by the Qin army. When they walked out of the cell, they still had illusions in their hearts, fantasizing that Zhao Tong would come forward to help them up and down and rescue them. But the closer they got to the square under the escort of the Qin army, the more uneasy these warriors felt in their hearts.

When the soldiers of the Qin army pressed their shoulders and made them kneel on the square, and the people around them pointed at them and didn't know what to say, they realized that it was not Zhao Tong who came forward to save them, but that their time had come.

"Lord Gunden's life!" A timid warrior knelt on the ground, and when he saw the executioner walking towards them with a short sword in his hand, he hurriedly shouted: "Those people are really not caught by the villains, they are all Zhao Tong, he instructed us to do it!" It was he who wanted those people to confess that the county guard colluded with the robbers to plot rebellion, and wanted to frame the adults, but the villains just obeyed their orders, and the adults spared their lives! ”

After the warrior shouted, Li You frowned, and beckoned to an officer beside him with some impatience, and after the officer approached, he whispered something in the officer's ear, and the officer nodded and walked towards the warrior.

"Good you cunning traitor!" The officer approached the shouting samurai, raised his hand and shook his big mouth, glared at him angrily, and said, "When death is imminent, you still want to deceive the county guard!" Who is Zhao Gongzi? How can he do the kind of stuff you say? When you do evil, you see that the death penalty is inevitable, and you want to frame Zhao Gongzi before you die in exchange for a chance to live, which is really hateful! ”

The warrior was slapped in the face, and he still didn't understand why he was beaten, and looked at the officer with a face full of grievances and said: "Master Jun, please help the villain to say good things in front of the county guard, I was indeed instructed by Zhao Tong to arrest those people, the villain is willing to testify against Zhao Tong for the county guard, and I hope that the villain will spare the villain's life!" ”

The officer sneered twice, didn't speak again, didn't slap the samurai again, just turned around and walked a few steps back, and shouted to the people around him: "Fathers and elders, a few days ago, the county guard found a private prison in Zhao Tonggongzi's mansion, and some fathers and elders were imprisoned in the prison. Now this thief not only does not want to repent, but spurts blood, wanting to drag Zhao Gongzi into the water, his intentions are sinister and the crime cannot be punished! Your Excellency has an order to immediately show the heads of these thieves to the public to seek justice for the detained and mutilated fathers! ”

As soon as they heard that these warriors were going to be beheaded, the onlookers suddenly boiled, and many people began to discuss each other, and the topic of discussion was nothing more than whether Zhao Tong really wanted to frame Li You.

For such a result, Li You is very satisfied, after such a trouble, even if Zhao Tong wants to exonerate those warriors, he must not be able to excuse them, after all, the warriors on the execution ground are against the water He forcibly pressed down, Zhao Tong has to take care of some face.

But at the same time, after such a quarrel from the samurai, the civilians must have had a lot of disgust towards Zhao Tong. Li You has an extremely high prestige in Xingyang, and the civilians and troops in Xingyang trust him, in the minds of the civilians and the army, Li You is a god-like existence that can lead them to victory again and again, and anyone who wants to harm him, the civilians and troops in the city will not agree. Although there is no evidence to confirm that Zhao Tong secretly wanted to frame Li You, the testimony of the warriors will also make the civilians a little suspicious, so that Zhao Tong's actions in Xingyang will be concerned by the military and civilians of the whole city, and in the future, Zhao Tong, who was monitored by the military and civilians of the whole city when Meng Su left, will inevitably throw a mouse trap when he sends someone to chase her, and the possibility of Meng Su and Xiang Ye escaping safely is much greater than now.

"Kill!" After shouting to the civilians, the officer turned around and made a gesture at the executioner and shouted.

The executioner answered, and stood behind a samurai with his sword, and with a puff of blood splattered high, a head fell off the samurai's neck, and the bones rolled aside, and the headless body fell to the ground with a thud.

"Spare your life!" The samurai, who had previously shouted that it was Zhao Tong who had instructed them to do bad things, shouted again when they saw that their companions had been killed.

Li You frowned and looked at him with some disgust. The executioner raised his head, and when he saw Li You's eyes, he walked behind the warrior with great interest, raised his short sword high, and slashed at the neck of the warrior who was shouting loudly.

The samurai felt the wind rise in the back of his neck, and knowing that the executioner was moving at him, he quickly shrank his neck, and the short sword that he quickly cut did not hit his neck, but slashed at the back of his head.

With a "click", the samurai's hard skull was split open by the short sword, and blood splattered out. But the sword did not fatal wound him, and he screamed and struggled to get up, but his hands tied behind his back made it difficult for him to balance, and he was kicked to the ground by the executioner from behind.

After kicking him to the ground, two Qin soldiers stepped forward and grabbed him and forced him to kneel on the ground again.

A Qin soldier reached out and grabbed the warrior's hair bun and dragged him head-up. The samurai desperately tried to shrink his neck, but the bun pulled by the Qin soldiers pulled his scalp made him feel unspeakably painful. He howled loudly to break free from the soldier's hand that was holding his bun, and just as he was holding on to the soldier, there was a sudden sharp pain in the back of his head, and the executioner slammed the hilt of his sword into the back of his head.

The hilt of the sword slammed on the back of his head, and immediately knocked the warrior unconscious, and the Qin soldier who was holding his bun hurriedly pulled it hard, and this pull woke up the warrior who had just fallen into a coma, and he was about to let out a howl and shrink his neck, but he suddenly felt a chill on his neck, and a bloody head was suddenly thrown out by the soldier who grabbed his bun.

The blood-dripping head rolled and flew towards the crowd of onlookers, and the crowd facing the head suddenly flashed to the side with a scream, and the square fell into a brief chaos.

A Qin officer ran to the ground, still staring at the crowd with his eyes open, reached out and lifted it up, ran back to the square, and threw it next to the warrior's corpse.

After such a commotion, the crowd of onlookers unconsciously retreated, and no one wanted to be contaminated with the heads flying in the sky.

The samurai kneeling on the ground bowed their heads one by one, the shocking scene just now made them completely lose hope of survival, and the only hope they had left was that the executioner would be able to be more agile when they started, so that they would not suffer as much as the samurai when they died.

After a brief commotion, the square fell silent, and everyone except the samurai kneeling in the square held their breath as they watched the blood-stained dagger in the executioner's hand.

The executioner licked his lips to calm his mood a little. The Qin Dynasty's legal system was very harsh, and as an executioner, hundreds of souls died at his hands, but he had never encountered such a shocking execution scene as today.

Even if he was a prisoner in the past, he had never felt so uneasy as he did today, that samurai's desire to survive was too strong, and even a full-time executioner would feel a little uneasy to kill such a person.

Li You, who was standing in the square, twisted his face to the side, not looking at the corpses lying on the ground, he killed these warriors, in order to achieve the effect of knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger, he wanted Zhao Tong to understand that in Xingyang or he Li You had the final say, if he dared to make a move here that he couldn't accept, he would inevitably take tough measures.
