No. 1 Girl in the Imperial City

Chapter 343 Before Execution (Part [-])
"Sister." Behind Cui Zheyu, Cui Ziying's voice sounded, with a hint of worry.

Only then did Cui Zheyu look away, turned around and smiled at his younger brother, "What's the matter? The prison van has passed by, you really don't want to go and see it?"

Cui Ziying carefully looked at the beautiful woman in red in front of him. When he was in the Qi tribe, he wished to tear Yu Chen's corpse into thousands of pieces every day.But now, when Yu Chen is really about to be taken to the execution ground, what he cares more about is his only relative in this world, his sister.

When Cui Ziying came back this time, she obviously felt that her sister had changed a lot compared to before, and such a change was not so pleasant.He also knows that after going through those things, it is impossible for her sister to be the gentle and carefree sister she used to be, but he hopes that she can at least let go of these things and live her own life in the future.

Cui Zheyu raised his hand to support the coral hairpin in his hair, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, today is a good day. Shall we go visit the graves of our parents in the afternoon?"

"En." Cui Ziying nodded.

Yesterday, when what happened to Yu Chen was made known to the world, it also washed away the grievances of the Cui family back then.Although Old General Cui still had the fault of not being strict with his subordinates and being ignorant of people and leading wolves into his house, it was much better than being suspected of being in collusion with Yu Chen when he was clearly killed in battle all these years.

At least they can move the graves of their parents back to their ancestors and set up a monument openly.Cui Ziying's current body can no longer be a general, but in the future he can still take the imperial examination and enter the court as an official.

After discussing with the Cui siblings, they still decided not to move the grave for now.

Parents have been buried for many years, so there is no need to disturb their quietness.If Cui Ziying can make contributions in the future and restore the glory of the Cui family, it will not be too late to relocate the grave.

"Ziying, it's my sister who is sorry for you." Thinking of this, the smile on Cui Zheyu's face gradually faded.In the final analysis, the Cui family has fallen into this state because of Yu Chen, and Yu Chen was her former husband.

Cui Ziying shook his head and said, "If sister said that, wouldn't daddy be sorry for you? If daddy didn't value Yu Chen, he wouldn't let you marry him. Besides, daddy and I are the ones who get along with him the most, neither of us It can be seen that he..."

Yu Chen hid it too deeply, none of them could see that such a person would be a secret agent with evil intentions.

The Cui family's catastrophe is probably fate, and no one can blame them.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore." Cui Zheyu didn't want to mention these things on a day like today, and said with a smile: "Let's go to the execution ground."

Cui Ziying hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Is my sister really going?" Yu Chen was not sentenced to ordinary execution, but Ling Chi.

That scene would never make people feel comfortable, Cui Ziying was a little worried.

Cui Zheyu said lightly: "There is a beginning and an end, I'd better give him a ride myself."

A little closer to the execution ground, Luo Junyao and the others were also crowded in the private room of the tea house.The prison van hadn't arrived yet, but the streets outside were already buzzing with people.

From their place, they could see the execution ground in the distance. This place was not a good place to drink tea in the past, but now it is indeed full of guests and hard to find.

Qin Yao'er lay by the window and stretched her neck to look at the end of the street. Wei Changting, who was sitting inside, couldn't stand it any longer, and couldn't help but said, "Xiao Qin, how about looking at the time? Even if you break your neck, I can't come now."

Qin Yao'er turned her head dissatisfied and said, "The prison is not far from here, why is it so slow?"

Wei Changting laughed and said with a smile: "Do you understand walking around the streets? Swim slowly, you don't just take whichever road is closest."

Qin Yao'er just sat back, looked at Luo Jun again and said, "Princess, let's go to the execution ground. The lord is going to be imprisoned in person today, you can sit beside him." Then she can also stand in a place.

Luo Junyao smiled and said: "How about I put you next to the execution platform?"

"Okay, okay." Qin Yao'er was overjoyed, she hadn't seen Ling Chi with her own eyes yet.

Everyone in the private room was speechless, Wei Changting pointed at Qin Yao'er and said with a smile: "Princess, don't listen to her, she is very timid, if she can't cut twice, she will be too scared to look at it." Several people in the room I couldn't help laughing, Qin Yao'er was so angry that she almost wanted to

I want to give Wei Changting some poison to taste.

It will take some time for the prison van to pass by, so Luo Junyao chatted with Wei Changting about other matters, "I heard that the Marquis of Lingchuan has agreed to leave the southern border of the town? When are you leaving?"

Mentioning this, Mr. Wei also felt a little sluggish, he had just been punished by his parents' mixed doubles.Although he was secretly happy that no one would force him to marry after the two elders left, but it was really painful to hit him with the ruler.

Besides, he didn't ask him to go, why didn't he confront Xie Yan if he had the strength?
Don't think he didn't see it, the old man looked reluctant on the surface, but he was quite happy in private.

Xie Yan is right, how can a person with some ability be willing to spend the rest of his life at home at this age?

"The matter in southern Xinjiang is urgent, we can't wait until the New Year is over before leaving, we will be leaving in a few days." Wei Changting said.

Luo Junyao thought for a while, "Fortunately, the south is not too cold, and the road is not too difficult. The situation in southern Xinjiang is uncertain, and the Marquis of Lingchuan should bring more guards." If it is going to the north, it will be several times more difficult.

Wei Changting said with a smile: "Thank you, Princess, for your concern. Don't worry. The Zhen Guojun will escort my father into Southern Border. Soldiers and horses near Southern Border are also gathering at the border. Those people dare not act rashly. The prince speculates that the interior of Southern Border may It is someone who wants to be king and hegemony, but if we talk about an all-out war with Dasheng, it shouldn't be possible right now."

"That's good." Luo Jun shook his head and said, she knew the current situation of Dasheng, she really couldn't fight.

On the other side, Yu Chen in the prison car was a little dazed.

The surrounding noises and the things that hit him from time to time seemed to have moved away from him and could not affect him in any way.He stood in the prison car blankly, letting those things hit him, and letting all kinds of insults surround his ears.

At this moment, there is only one voice in his mind—my parents and the baby are waiting for you.

Yu Chen suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart, and then his head hurt like it was about to explode. Those words kept coming back and forth in his mind, and his whole body began to tremble.

He thought of the tomb next to Cui Liao's tomb, which was obviously an extra one.

Cui Zheyu once said that it was her own.

Yu Chen suddenly turned his head to see Cui Zheyu, but the prison van had already passed the teahouse, and Cui Zheyu had already disappeared.

Yu Chen couldn't help but struggled violently, the onlookers didn't know who was yelling in fright, "He wants to run away!"

The guards leading the prison van would naturally not allow the prisoner to escape in the street, so four guards with long guns on both sides stabbed into the prison van at the same time.

Yu Chen himself was seriously injured, and his current physical condition may not be comparable to that of an ordinary adult man. Four long spears were staggered in front of and behind his body, firmly fixing him in the prison car.

As long as he made another rash move, he might be regarded as trying to escape and killed on the spot the next moment.

Yu Chen didn't move any more, but still turned his head and tried his best to look in the direction of the prison van, but he didn't see anything after all.

No matter how long the journey was, there would be a time when the prisoner vans were finally sent to the execution ground when the sun was rising.

Today's execution is obviously unusual. After all, the regent is in person for the execution, and many courtiers and military generals have come to watch the execution.Except for old Mrs. Su and a few people who are still locked in the cell, almost all the officials above the third grade were present.

Some people even couldn't help thinking secretly, could it be that His Royal Highness the Prince Regent wants to kill a chicken for the monkey to see?
Xie Yan sat on the main seat, and on the left and right sides of him sat the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment and the Zuodu Censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.As one of the people who came to watch the execution, Luo Yun naturally sat on the side.

Seeing Yu Chen being taken to the execution ground in a mess, Luo Yun also shook his head silently.

He also had some dealings with Yu Chen back then, who would have thought that all of them would have been mistaken?

The generation of famous generals back then is now executed together with a few Xiaoxiao, and he deserves what he deserves.

Before the execution, the officials of the imperial court would also read the indictment of the person to be punished to the beheading officer, the officials watching the execution and the common people.

When it is time for execution, the execution can only begin after the body is verified.

It is said that the execution ground is full of grievances, and noon is the time of the day when the yang energy is at its peak, so the general execution is at three o'clock in the noon.

The official who read out the crime looked at it and found that it was still early, so he read the crime in a leisurely and leisurely manner.

First of all, the criminals in the Yao family extermination case, although many years have passed, and these few people are not the main culprits, but this case is complicated and involved, and it really takes a lot of time to read it.

Yu Chen was pressed and knelt on the ground, hearing the crimes of people who had nothing to do with him and the pleading and fearful voices of those prisoners.

Cui Zheyu's words were still echoing in his mind.

He tried his best to raise his head and looked around. There were crowds of people around him, and there were strange faces. Everyone stared at him with disgust and hatred.

she didn't come?Impossible, how could she not want to watch him die?

Finally, he saw that familiar face among countless unfamiliar faces.

She was dressed in red, and she was particularly dazzling in the crowd. On her left was Cui Ziying, and on her right was a strange young man.

That man was very handsome and young, he looked younger than Cui Ziying.

He was bowing his head and talking to Cui Zheyu, his young face was full of smiles.

Yu Chen was once young, so he naturally knew what that smile meant.

Just when Yu Chen's thoughts were in confusion, the official with a long voice finally finished reading the crimes of the previous few people, and began to read Yu Chen's.

"Yu Chen, a death row prisoner, was thirty..."

There was an uproar in the execution ground, just after hearing the name, the angry curses of the onlookers almost covered the official's voice.

Compared to the extermination case of the Yao clan, Yu Chen, a traitor, is obviously more hated.

Cui Zheyu, who was talking to the people around him, finally raised his head and looked at Yu Chen who was on the stage.
