Chapter 197: Your Majesty is Dead!
Chapter 197 Your Majesty, I can’t do it anymore!
(Due to subsequent revisions to the article, the title was changed to: Execution at Lingchi)
Wang Yun kowtowed again and said slowly, "Really."
"Your Majesty, this is all a stupid thing I did in a moment of ignorance. I know that my sin is serious. I don't ask for your forgiveness. I only ask that your majesty can spare my wife."
On the dragon throne, every time he spoke, His Majesty's face turned darker, as if a storm was about to come, as black as ink droplets.
Wang Yun was like a child who had done something wrong. He lowered his head and kowtowed again and again, not daring to look at him.
He had been confused for many years. He used to think that it was for the glory and wealth of his daughters, but now he feels that death is a serious sin. All the sins he has done will eventually be returned to his daughters.
But fortunately, it didn't reach the point of murder and arson. If Wang Yinchuan hadn't persuaded him to pull back from the brink, he would have definitely participated in the imperial examination that would have broken the hearts of countless students.
It was Wang Yinchuan who pulled him out of the abyss step by step, preventing him from sinking deeper into the abyss. But even so, he had done too many wrong things. Those sins left by greed were like ants in the dam.
The group destroyed the foundation he had worked hard to build for many years in one fell swoop.
However, he does not regret what he did today. No matter how unbearable those things were, they were all his fault. Now that he has done something, he must bear it himself. This is a truth that even a three-year-old understands.
He has lived for so long, from an unknown person to a position above ten thousand people. He has suffered all kinds of hardships and enjoyed all kinds of blessings. His life can be regarded as a complete one. Therefore, he has no regrets. Fortunately, he admitted his mistake in the end.
As for being reviled as an eternal sinner.
"I have been an official for many years. Although I have done many wrong things, I have also worked hard. I hope that Your Majesty will spare them because I have also done some good things."
"You are calm and calm. I know you are a smart person, but if you plead for your father, it will be spared. I can remember your father's hard work and merit, and for the sake of this, I will spare you family members, confiscate the property, and demote you to common people.
, As for your father's death penalty, I have made up my mind and will never take it back again." The emperor said solemnly.
Wang Yun let go of himself, his fame and wealth, his wealth, his power and status. He was able to let go of everything, even if the world poked his spine and cursed him, and he was willing to be punished. However, he could not let go of his wife and children.
Tian Zihei looked at her with a stern face, "I still remember you."
The emperor's face was cold, as if he had no intention of letting him go.
"They have no idea what I have done. I have kept them in the dark. They are innocent. Your Majesty, those who do not know are not guilty. I beg you to spare their lives."
The thin paper was like a blade, scratching Wang Yun's old face, instantly adding a trace of blood.
"How can you have the dignity to pray for your wife's safety? When you did those things, did you ever think about the wives of countless ordinary people? Did you ever think about them pleading in the same way?"
However, he did not see His Majesty's dark gaze on the throne, as if a thunderstorm was brewing, and his face was ashen.
In the main hall, the petite body looked even thinner. In the empty main hall, he looked like a weak earthworm.
At this time, a eunuch suddenly called out with a sharp voice, "Your Majesty! Outside the palace gate, a woman claiming to be the daughter of Prime Minister Wang is asking to see you!"
Before he could finish speaking, His Majesty, who was full of anger, was extremely angry and suddenly burst out, "Come here, Wang Yun has committed a serious crime. He will be dragged out immediately and executed in Ling Chi. All the women in the palace will be sold off, and the men will be sent to the army!"
"No! Your Majesty, they are innocent, they are innocent!" Wang Yun's eyes were about to burst, and his eyes were instantly blood red, and he shouted hurriedly, "No, Your Majesty, I beg you!"
With a bang, he dropped the document in his hand to the ground.
Wang Yinchuan was dressed in plain clothes, with only a white jade hairpin on his head, like mourning clothes.
The imperial guards tied up Wang Yun and dragged him to the palace gate. Another group of imperial guards was about to lead troops to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
The emperor said gloomily, "Let her come!"
However, the guards who came in from outside took him into custody and tried to take him away.
"It's my honor to be my daughter." Wang Yinchuan said without being humble or overbearing.
However, he remained motionless, "I know that my sins are serious, so I don't interfere and ask for your forgiveness. I just ask your majesty to let them go. As long as I can let them go, I would rather suffer thousands of cuts and thousands of punishments. Please your majesty -
—”
Thinking of this, Wang Yun kowtowed again and said, "Your Majesty, I am willing to be punished for the crimes I have committed. Whether it is dividing the carriage with five horses, being executed in late morrow, or any other punishment, I am very angry."
So, it’s just that before I die, I have one more wish, that is, I hope that your majesty can let go of my wife and my still young daughter.”
Wang Yun knew who it was without even guessing.
The scenery of the past is long gone. Wang Yun now looks like an ordinary old man. Tears flowed from his cloudy eyes, and his triangular eyes were filled with blood, as if he was about to vomit and bleed.
"Long live my emperor." She said every word, but there was no fear or fear at all, only neither humble nor arrogant.
After saying this, he knocked heavily on the ground again.
But Wang Yinchuan just shook his head, "Your Majesty's guess is correct. I came here just because of my father's affairs. I probably guessed what my father said and knew that he listed the charges. Although the Prime Minister is me,
My father, however, I am not a foolish and filial person. I will not defend him for the mistakes he has made. If he makes a mistake, it is a mistake. My father must be willing to bear the responsibility for the sins he has committed."
"I am here to ask Your Majesty to consider that although my father has done many wrong things, he has never killed anyone or taken the life of an innocent person. Compared to others, the bribes he accepted were not large.
.However, my father also had meritorious service. He fought on and off at the border for ten years, and his hair became gray. Later, he became an official in the court. At the beginning, he did his best to clean up the officialdom and serve His Majesty."
"Your Majesty must have heard that when my daughter was born, my father personally took me with him to teach me. At that time, I already remembered my father's attitude in the officialdom, and my father's attitude towards the officialdom. I remember it.
It’s clear. All these changes started in the second year after my father became prime minister, that is, three years ago. In the past two years, he has never done anything serious or harmful.
He is just greedy for money and trying to win over the courtiers."
"Your Majesty, please remember my father's hard work and past achievements, and give him a chance to atone for his sins."
