Chapter 1: The execution site is at Mao, and Zhu Di oversees the execution!
The eighteenth year of Hongwu!
Beiping Prefecture, Chaishikou.
The crowd's voice was boiling, mixed with screams.
Guo An stood with a pale face among a group of officials wearing green robes and official uniforms. He looked at the beheading in front of him, his face full of discomfort but he did not dare not look away.
On a wide piece of land in front, there was a row of prisoners kneeling in white linen clothes. They all had thick shackles around their necks. They knelt feebly on the wooden pillars and supported themselves with all their strength.
Each of these prisoners looked desperate, their clothes were ragged, their bodies were stained with blood, and there was no good skin anywhere.
In fact, many prisoners opened their mouths wide, but did not make any sound.
It can be seen that these prisoners don't have a single tooth in their mouths, and some even have half of their tongues missing!
"What a tragedy!"
Guo An shuddered subconsciously, but did not dare to close his eyes.
Because, behind these officials, there was a group of fierce-looking soldiers, staring at them eagerly the whole time.
If they dare to be lazy and not take a good look, they will be like those unlucky officials in front of them, being held up by soldiers one by one and watching only a dozen steps away from the beheaded criminal officers.
Guo An could see that the feet of those officials were already slightly damp!
On the other side, it was surrounded by people wearing various clothes.
Completely opposite to the expressions of officials like Guo An, some of the people's faces were full of sorrow, while others were happy that their great revenge had been avenged.
"Cut!"
Suddenly, with a loud shout, the executioners in the field waved their machetes. Before the prisoners had time to struggle, the light of the sword flashed, and a series of heads flew up, while the corpses fell to the ground helplessly.' A bunch of blood stains burst out.
Immediately, a group of soldiers on one side came forward expressionlessly, carried the corpses away, and sprinkled some plant ash on the ground.
Then, a group of prisoners were taken in again.
……
"Ugh~"
After two rounds, Guo An felt very uncomfortable, and his stomach began to turn upside down.
Similarly, as the heads rolled down one by one, the officials beside him also turned pale, and some even vomited directly at their feet!
It's true!
Seeing this scene, Guo An finally believed that this was not the filming set of a large-scale costume drama, nor was it a prank show playing tricks on him!
He really and truly traveled through time inexplicably after taking a nap!
Then, I was brought here to watch the beheading in a daze!
At the same time, a memory also emerged from the depths of Guo An's mind.
His original name is also Guo An, his father Guo Zhongshi... and his ancestor, a particularly powerful technology superstar, Guo Shoujing!
...Guo Shoujing?
It is now the eighteenth year of Hongwu, the year when the Guo Huan case broke out, and the place where he is standing now is the execution ground of Beiping Prefecture?
The king of Yan, Zhu Di, supervised the execution. As for the execution site, it was the officials found out in Guo Huan's case, including Guo An's direct superiors, the county magistrate and the county magistrate of Wanping County?
The more he thought about it, the paler Guo An's face turned.
"All you officials should open your eyes wide and take a good look at me. This is the fate of those who are eating my Ming Dynasty's salary, but do not want to be loyal to the emperor and serve the country, and only want to be corrupt officials and prey on the common people!"
Suddenly, King Zhu Di of Yan, who was wearing a purple-red uniform, looked towards Guo An and shouted sharply.
Suddenly, Guo An shivered subconsciously.
Similarly, all the officials beside Guo An also quickly bowed their hands to Zhu Di and saluted, saying "yes" repeatedly.
In this way, it was not until midnight in the afternoon that Guo An escaped this torture. With the support of his attendant and bodyguard Guo Erniu, he stumbled all the way back to his home where more than a dozen large chun trees were planted.
"Ugh~ vomit..."
As soon as he entered the courtyard, Guo An hugged a Chinese chrysanthemum tree and started spraying it out.
"Master?"
Behind him, Guo Erniu's face was full of worry. He just wanted to step forward, but he smelled an unbearable smell, and a trace of confusion flashed on his honest face.
