In full view of everyone, Xiao Chuhe appeared alone at the execution ground without saying a word. Even Emperor Mingde on the stage chose to ignore him. He just took off his prince's python robe that symbolized his noble status and handed over King Langya.
Xiao Ruofeng's body was wrapped up, and the blood soaked into the python robe. Xiao Chuhe, who was wearing only a single piece of clothing, picked up King Langya and was about to leave.
"Do you know what you are doing?"
Emperor Mingde's calm voice sounded, and his tone was full of displeasure. Obviously, Xiao Chuhe's actions had made him angry.
"I once said that you are not allowed to leave the palace without my will, but you have repeatedly disobeyed me, and now you have taken off your python robe in public. Do you really think that I dare not deal with you?"
Emperor Mingde's words made everyone present nervous. Is it possible that the emperor will not only execute his biological brother today, but also his most outstanding son?
Lan Yuehou on the side quickly begged:
"Your Majesty, Chu He is King Langya after all... No... he is Xiao Ruofeng's disciple after all. This behavior is excusable. Please forgive me. Chu He, you are so shameless, why don't you come here quickly?
Can I apologize to His Majesty?"
Lan Yuehou obviously wanted to give Xiao Chuhe a step down. Your Majesty should know that King Langya has no objection. If Xiao Chuhe can kneel down and beg for mercy and explain the situation carefully, maybe your Majesty can be lenient.
Unfortunately, Xiao Chuhe turned a blind eye to their words and without saying a word, he turned and walked towards the rear. Two sword cultivators, Li Xinyue and Li Hanyi, stood on either side of him to protect him.
At this time, the guards and experts present were also hesitant. They looked at Emperor Mingde above, wondering whether to take action. Logically speaking, the actions of the three of them were to rob the law field, but King Langya was dead and was taken away.
The corpse shouldn't be counted, right? After waiting for a long time, I still couldn't wait for the emperor's order.
The emperor hesitated for a long time, and finally waved his hand and allowed several people to leave.
After they left, Emperor Mingde said to eunuch Jinxuan beside him:
"What happened to Jinxian? Didn't I ask him to stop the Chu River?"
Superintendent Jinxuan was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to answer the other party's question. He was also very curious. Jinxian was a half-step swordsman. Could it be that he was bribed by Xiao Chuhe?
What they didn't know was that in the palace, Duke Jinxian was lying on the ground, looking up at the sky, with a depressed look on his face. At this moment, he was even a little confused. He had been fighting fiercely with Xiao Chuhe, but he didn't know what was going on.
, fell down inexplicably, not even knowing how he lost.
At the same time, Xiao Chuhe carried King Langya's "corpse" and walked outside, but there was a constant flow of power in his hands, but no one noticed it because of his python robe.
On the same day, Xiao Chuhe and others held a brief funeral for King Langya. Since he was killed for treason, he was not eligible to enter the imperial mausoleum. Xiao Chuhe had to pay for a geomantic treasure land and bury him there.
.
At the place where he was buried, many people spontaneously burned incense and prayed for him.
In this way, the vigorous rebellion of King Langya ended with his suicide. Fortunately, Emperor Mingde was also kind, and this incident did not involve too much. King Langya's only son Xiao Lingchen was missing, and his subordinates were loyal to King Langya.
The Langya army also retreated one after another.
The matter of King Langya was finally settled, but the case against Xiao Chuhe was not settled yet.
In the past three days, many ministers have filed petitions to investigate Xiao Chuhe's rebellion against the decree. Failure to comply with the decree is a death penalty. Not only that, Xiao Chuhe actually held a funeral for the person who rebelled. This is a complete slap in the face of the Holy Emperor.
.With the help of thoughtful people, things have become more and more serious. Many people hope that the sixth prince Xiao Chuhe can be severely punished.
The emperor waited in the palace for three days, wanting Xiao Chuhe to give an explanation for what happened that day, but he did not receive Xiao Chuhe's apology letter. All he got was only a dozen words:
"I'm not wrong! Uncle Wang is not wrong either, it's you who are wrong!"
For this reason, Emperor Mingde was furious and directly issued an order to abolish Xiao Chuhe's status as the sixth prince and demote him to a commoner!
As soon as this decree came out, the world was shocked and countless people lamented. This proud man who had just topped the list of good jade was demoted to a mortal and even lost his royal palace.
Fortunately, I won a Xueyue Villa a few years ago, so I wouldn't have no place to live.
In the eyes of many people, there is no need for Xiao Chuhe to risk his wealth and wealth for a dead person. In their opinion, as long as Xiao Chuhe can hand over a plea note explaining the situation, even if the emperor will punish him, he will not
Demoting him to a commoner, after all, Xiao Chuhe had just exposed his cultivation in Xiaoyao Tianjing, and his reputation was flourishing, so he was the most likely candidate to become the prince.
But Xiao Chuhe not only did it, but also added fuel to the fire above, and did not repent. He even gave up his glory and wealth for the so-called justice.
Of course, while most people are mocking Xiao Chuhe, there are still many people who admire Xiao Chuhe's actions. After all, how many people in this world dare to do this?
A few days later, at a dock outside Tianqi City, Xiao Chuhe and Ji Xue came here in disguise. They wanted to say goodbye to someone.
There was a middle-aged man in civilian clothes in front of them. If there were any acquaintances here, they would definitely recognize him. This man turned out to be Langya King Xiao Chuhe who had committed suicide not long ago due to treason.
"Teacher, are you really not going to tell Xiaochen and the others?"
As early as when he was in the heavenly prison, Xiao Chuhe injected a stream of true energy into his body. Relying on this true energy, although King Langya wiped his neck, his life was still saved by Xiao Chuhe. This is why he used clothes that day.
The reason for wrapping his body.
After King Langya came back from the dead, he did not tell any of his cronies. Even his only son, Xiao Lingchen, was unwilling to tell him. Only the three of them in the world knew about this matter.
Xiao Ruofeng smiled freely and said:
"Hahaha, Xiaochen is used to being a playboy, it's time for him to grow up. Langya King Xiao Ruofeng is dead, and now I am just a commoner.
You are right. I should trust you and be able to deal with any crisis. I have worked for Beili for half my life, and it is time for me to venture into the world.
As for you, if you had admitted your mistake to your father that day, you would not have been demoted to a commoner."
Xiao Chuhe smiled and said:
"I'm different from you. I will only live according to my own wishes in this life. I will not be bound by the court or the world. The only thing that can restrain me is feelings!"
Xiao Ruofeng left very casually, and he probably won't appear again in a short time. Otherwise, the crime of deceiving the king will be confirmed.
This is also the best way Xiao Chuhe can think of, at least no one will die. Of course, if he is rehabilitated in the future, he may still have a chance to appear in front of the public.
After Xiao Ruofeng left, Xiao Chuhe looked at Ji Xue beside him and said:
"sorry to bother you!"
Ji Xue shook her head and said:
"There's nothing to thank you for. He is also my uncle. What are your plans next?"
Xiao Chuhe looked at Xiao Rufeng who had walked away, and after a while, he said slowly:
"The world is so big, I want to go out and see it!"
This time, he has already planned to leave Apocalypse City.
