Mu Siyu hesitated for a moment, then stood up and said, "Bring the cloak over here, I'll go take a look."
"Madam, we are going to kill those thieves today. It is very likely that there are still his accomplices in the capital. If they come to rob the execution ground, it will be very dangerous for madam to go like this, so it is better not to go."
"Even you can figure it out, do you think the officials of the imperial court know about it? The execution ground must be tightly guarded now. If those accomplices really show up, they can be sent away together. But the actions of the imperial court during this period are so
There are many places in the capital that have been sealed off by the government, and many thieves have been arrested. If there is anyone who survives, as long as there is nothing wrong with his brain, he will not be sent to seek death."
"I don't understand. Why does Madam still want to see the thief? That thief has caused us so much suffering! If Madam hadn't been clever, the entire city of Shanghai and North City would have been in ruins long ago, and I don't know how many people's homes have been destroyed."
"I have to see those people die with my own eyes before I can rest assured." Mu Siyu said, "Aren't they good at disguises? Before the execution, the officials who supervise the execution will verify their identity. I want to see clearly who the dead person is."
At the execution ground, the onlookers pointed at the condemned prisoners who were about to be executed. If there were not officers and soldiers guarding the execution ground, they might have thrown some rotten vegetable leaves or poured some water on them.
Mu Siyu was in the crowd and looked at Xiao Li, who was kneeling straight.
Xiao Li also met Mu Siyu.
He smiled wantonly, as if he was not about to be executed, but about to ascend the throne as emperor.
Lu Shaoyu was wearing official uniform, and his face looked more and more like Lu Yi's with a majestic look.
The young prison official was not worthy of the place where he died. The people looked at that handsome face that became more and more majestic, and their faces were filled with trust and admiration. After all, in just a few years, Mu Siyu's reputation has grown.
It was getting louder and louder, and Lu Shaoyu could be said to have unlimited fame in the capital.
Lu Shaoyu's fame is related to his official position and the cases he handled, rather than having a pair of parents who are always talked about. He has gained everyone's respect and recognition based on his own strength.
"It's two quarters past noon. Confirm the identity of the prisoner." Lu Shaoyu said.
The officer in charge of supervision checked everyone's identities one by one and checked their faces for a long time to ensure that there were no disguises such as human skin masks. After confirming, they reported the situation to Lu Shaoyu.
"Execution." Lu Shaoyu threw the execution card.
Xiao Li looked in Mu Siyu's direction.
The moment the sword was swung down, many images appeared in his mind.
Over the years, he had fallen into the hands of the couple again and again. In fact, it was not Lu Yi who made him unwilling the most, but Mu Siyu.
Finally, it's over.
Click! The knife falls and the head falls.
The head rolled far away and blood spurted out.
The people turned their heads unbearably.
Mu Siyu let out a breath: "This time it's really over."
"Madam, let's go!" Qingdai supported her.
Mu Siyu nodded, turned and left.
Lu Shaoyu had met Mu Siyu a long time ago and was worried about scaring her, but seeing that she didn't even frown, he knew that he was overthinking it.
His mother is more courageous than most men, but he is worried in vain.
"Sir, I have checked it and there is no problem."
"Then get rid of the body!"
"yes."
Fan Yuanxi woke up.
Ten days after Xiao Li and other thieves were sentenced to death, Fan Yuanxi woke up.
The civil and military officials were already discussing whether to appoint a new monarch, and if so, who could be appointed. They were about to decide on the candidate for the new monarch, but they didn't expect Fan Yuanxi to wake up.
"What do those old men want to do?" Fan Yuanxi sat on the bed, his voice hoarse.
"Your Majesty, don't pay attention to them." Qi Xiao said, "Now that you wake up, all their wishful thinking has been ruined, so no matter what they have planned, it will be of no use."
"Where's Prime Minister Lu?"
"This time we have solved their leader. The Prime Minister has found out a lot of information and took advantage of this opportunity to go around and eliminate the traitors."
"He can't sit still." Fan Yuanxi said, "I know better than anyone what the old men in the court are planning. It's a pity that Prime Minister Lu is only thinking about how he and his wife will live together after he retires and returns to his hometown.
Even if they want to help Lu Xiang ascend the throne, it depends on whether he agrees. If I were them, instead of helping Lu Xiang ascend the throne, I might as well help Lu Shaoyu. At least Lu Shaoyu is young and has not said anything about the marriage."
"Your Majesty, these matters have nothing to do with the Lu family. They are just some ill-informed ministers who have thoughts that they shouldn't have. I ask Your Majesty to take a closer look." Qi Xiao knelt down.
"I'm not so stupid that I can't tell the difference between good and bad." Fan Yuanxi said, "I can wake up this time, thanks to you. In addition, now that I have woken up, the news of the Queen's pregnancy can be spread."
"yes."
The emperor woke up and found out that the queen was pregnant. When the news spread, the people said that the little prince was born with blessings. It was precisely because of his appearance that the emperor, who had narrowly escaped death, came to his senses.
Lu Yi came back and brought many traitors with him.
The leader of the thieves has been eliminated, but the court did not kill all these little thieves.
"Empress, Princess Xuan wants to see you." Li Xiang walked in from outside.
Shangguan Jinxiu was reading a book and looked confused after hearing Li Xiang's words.
"What is she here for?"
After King Xuan disappeared, Prince Xuan's palace was under strict guard. However, no one paid much attention to Princess Xuan. After all, no one took her seriously either from King Xuan or from Liangguo.
"The servant has already said that the empress has rested, and she must pay her respects to the empress." Li Xiang said, "How about saying that the empress has gone to the emperor?"
"She wants to see me. She can hide away today but not tomorrow." Shangguan Jinxiu said, "Please invite her in!"
"This Princess Xuan has unpredictable thoughts..."
"I know." Shangguan Jinxiu said, "No matter what she says or does, I won't believe it. As long as I don't let her get close to me and don't eat anything she touches, no matter how many tricks she tries, it will be useless."
Fan Yuanxi, Lu Yi and others had discussed how to deal with the traitors and were about to review the memorial when they heard Eunuch Wang talking to several palace officials.
"Then Princess Xuan was not imprisoned in Prince Xuan's Mansion? Who let her out?" Eunuch Wang said.
"I heard that Princess Xuan said she had important news to tell the emperor. The general who was guarding her sent her to the palace for fear of delaying the official business. However, after entering the palace, Princess Xuan did not come to see the emperor. Instead, she went to see the empress.
"The palace man said, "The general was worried about something happening, so he wanted to report the situation to the emperor. The emperor was busy just now, and the general was waiting in the side hall. Father-in-law, why don't you summon me?"
