Chapter 65 Tribulation Field (two chapters in one)
The emperor looked at Shen Zhong with hatred in his eyes, he never understood that he had never treated Shen Shen badly, why did Shen Zhong do this.

But there is no need to pursue these details now, if you have already done it, you have to accept the result.

The emperor sighed, closed his eyes and said in a deep voice.

"Heavy, ask to be killed at three quarters in the afternoon three days later!"

Above the court hall, all the courtiers were silent.

After understanding the whole story, they dared not speak out, and no one dared to intercede for Shen Chong.

And none of them will intercede for Shen Chong. It's not that they are not careful, but they are all just fighting internally and never involve the enemy country.

They also showed contempt for a person like Zhong Zhong who had no bottom line, and refused to open his eyes to look at him.

The emperor was angry, and when the matter was settled, he watched the guards bring Shen Shen back to the dungeon, and without saying anything, he announced his withdrawal from the imperial court, and only let Chu Yao follow him to the imperial study.

Seeing that the emperor loved Chu Yao so much, although the people in the court were slightly dissatisfied, they did not dare to comment on the emperor's decision.

Then several people walked out all the way.

Chu Yao followed behind the emperor, only to hear the emperor ask, "How is Zhaohua?"

He hadn't seen Zhaohua for several months, and the emperor missed her very much, and wanted to find out Chu Yao's attitude towards Zhaohua, so he asked.

Thinking of Jiang Yue, Chu Yao smiled, and there was a little nostalgia in his eyes, "It's good, the people love her so much, she should be able to complete the task this time."

The emperor nodded, and his mood improved a lot because of this matter.

Chu Yao thought of his master Jing Zhong, and said to the emperor, "Your Majesty, I have something I would like to ask the Emperor to agree to."

After Chu Yao finished speaking, he knelt down in front of the palace people, clasped his fists with both hands, and had a sincere attitude.

The emperor had never seen him behave like this before, so he said, "This time you caught the heavy one, and you deserve it. If you have anything to say, just say it."

Then he helped Chu Yao up.

"The last time I went to visit Ningguohou's mansion at night, I didn't find anything. This time, Shen is already in the sky prison. I want to take Jin Yiwei to search again to see if I can find some clues."

Knowing that Chu Yao had always felt guilty towards Jing Zhong in his heart, the emperor actually felt the same about himself, so he took a deep breath.

"Go ahead, there is no need to ask for instructions on this matter, I am also ashamed about the miracle doctor Jing."

Although the emperor said so, but Chu Yao thought that since he was an official, he could no longer act recklessly like before, asking for instructions in everything, this is the basic principle and respect for the emperor.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." He shook his head, "The emperor is the emperor, and the minister is the minister. The positions cannot be reversed."

Then he turned his head and left. In less than half a moment, Chu Yao took Jinyiwei to Ningguohou's Mansion. He carefully screened this group of Jinyiwei, so there must be no spies.

Standing in the lobby of Ningguohou's Mansion, Chu Yao raised his hand and made a gesture, and the guards in Jinyi knew what they were going to do, and headed towards various places in the mansion.

He went to the study room in person. Generally speaking, the study room is the most important place in each mansion. Outsiders are generally not allowed to enter, and there are the most secrets in it.

In the study room, the imperial army led by Eunuch Li had searched through it. When Chu Yao went, the floor was in a mess, all valuables had been confiscated, and there were only four walls.

He patted along the wall, and there was no hollow on it, so he couldn't help frowning.

Jin Yiwei also searched the room one after another and came back, shaking his head at Chu Yao.

A trace of powerlessness rose in Chu Yao's heart, and he thought: It seems that the master is not in the Ningguohou's mansion, and they locked him up elsewhere. I am afraid that only Shen Chong knows the location.

"You go back first."

Chu Yao walked towards Jinyiwei, and then walked towards the prison alone.

In the dungeon, the chains on the prison door rang.

Before the jailer arrived, a numb voice came first, "Get up, after this meal, you won't be hungry on Huangquan Road."

This was not the first time he had given a meal of severed heads, but it was the first time he had given such a large meal of severed heads.

Shen Hou, that was once an unattainable big man, but now he is wrapped in coarse cloth and chained.

People, I still can't mix well.

Little people think like little people, and big people think like big people.

But who knew that a big man like this, who has power and wealth, is not satisfied, and he still thinks about treason and fighting against the country, and he doesn't know what he thinks in his heart.

If he ended up in this state, he deserved it. He didn't spit into the bowl, he was kind, the jailer thought in his heart, looking heavy, without a trace of respect in his eyes.

Now that this matter has been exposed, the ruling and opposition parties are in a state of abuse, contempt and indignation, and are in a heavy whirlpool without knowing about it.

He glanced at the jailer coldly, and sure enough, anyone would dare to step up and step on him when he was in a low place, but he didn't lose his temper at the jailer.

Now Zhong Chong is not as panicked and depressed as he was when he was in the court hall.

He appeared calm, as if he could see through life and death, as if he had enough strength in his hands.

Rolling up the coarse cloth cuffs, he sat calmly in front of the table, picked up the chopsticks, stuffed a piece of meat into his mouth, and chewed slowly and carefully.

The jailer's eyes were surprised. He had seen many people who were about to go to the guillotine, and he was the only one who didn't cry and wash his face with tears.

Just as the jailer was thinking, the cell door was pushed open again.

"Master Shen is very interested. This decapitated meal is so delicious." Chu Yao looked at Shen Zhong with interest.

He picked up the piece of meat on the table heavily, shook it in front of Chu Yao, then stuffed it into his mouth, and began to chew carefully.

"Once upon a time, I ate so much meat that I vomited, but there is no slice that compares to this one. It has a special taste."

Shen Zhong was not surprised by Chu Yao's arrival. He knew the purpose of Chu Yao's coming here, but Jing Zhong had already asked him to send someone back to Norway, and he didn't intend to tell Chu Yao. He was destined to come here for nothing.

"Oh? That's right, Marquis Shen is really open to it. I don't know if it will be like this tomorrow."

"I'll know then, let alone treat it as your meat. I think this meat is delicious in the world?" Shen Zhong looked at Chu Yao with interest, and said, he picked up another piece and stuffed it into his mouth.

Chu Yao didn't care about Shen Zhong's hatred for him, he was already a prisoner, what else could he do?
"It seems that Mr. Shen really hates me to the bone. That's right. Mr. Shen has been hiding for so many years and hasn't revealed it. I think he is quite confident in his own ability."

"But you just lost to me, do you know why?"

"Because you're impatient and smart, otherwise you wouldn't have hibernated for so long, but you were too impatient when you were about to hit the door, or maybe you underestimated Jiang Yue and couldn't kill her over and over again. You were impatient, She didn't hesitate to expose herself, but she caught her."

"If you can be an idle lord well and wait for the day when the time is right, I'm afraid no one will be your opponent."

"Is it too early to talk about winning or losing?" Shen Zhong said.

"Why is it so difficult for Master Hou to escape?" Chu Yao felt that there was something in the heavy words.

"Oh!" Laughed twice, looking at Chu Yao, "Master Chu stooped to come to the prison, I'm afraid it's more than that!"

"Say, where is my master?" Chu Yao's calm face was broken, and he asked sharply.

"Master Chu is able to come here, you must have searched the Ningguo Hou Mansion, you think I will die soon, and you expect me to tell you whereabouts?"

"I'm about to die, let Doctor Jing die with me!"

"If you want to find it, go to hell with me to find it!"

After Chu Yao finished standing up, he punched the heavy face.

……

In the harem, Empress Meng Yiyi stood on the pavilion in the middle of the lake, taking the tea from Rong Juan.

"Niang Niang, there is a result, ask to be executed at [-]:[-] noon."

Meng Yiyi's hands tightened slightly, she didn't expect that someone as treacherous as Shen Zhong couldn't deal with Jiang Yue, she was really lucky.

There was a hint of thought in his eyes.

She took a shallow sip, "Heavy, heavy, it seems that he is old and useless, a little girl can put him in this situation."

"I thought that with him fighting Jiang Yue, I would save my energy and benefit from the fisherman, but he really disappointed me. Anyway, some things, let me do it."

After finishing speaking, she whispered a few words into Rong Juan's ear.

Three days passed in a blink of an eye.

The heavy prison van was on the way to the execution ground.

The common people may not know the details, but they don't delay throwing eggs and rotten vegetable leaves. They may not know how much government food has been embezzled, and they are traitors, but they don't delay them.

He was escorted to the execution platform, and with him, there were five people who used to embezzle Mok official food.

Today they are no longer glorious, and their messy hair has no official prestige.

The sun is scorching like a raging fire, as if it wants to dry the filth of this world.

The surrounding officers and soldiers maintained order, their spears were shining brightly, and their faces were visible, and the red cherry blossoms were as bright as blood in the setting sun.

No one dared to do anything wrong, they just looked at these damned people blankly, and looked expectantly at the beheading token on the beheading stage!
The executioner dressed in red walked into the arena, holding a sharpened broadsword in his thick arms.

Beheading is really too light a punishment, it should be Ling Chi, and the body should be quartered.

Let the slices of meat as thin as cicada's wings comfort the people who starved to death.

Let those limbs be crutches on the road to hell.

Let that vicious head be a chamber pot, let him die, kill him!

The timid ones have already wet their crotches.

They don't want to die yet.

Seeing this appearance, Chu Yao asked Shen Shen, "Marquis Shen, do you regret it now?"

Zhong Zhong suddenly burst out laughing.

He looked at the heads of restless people in the audience, and turned to Chu Yao, "Regret? I never regret anything I do."

Then he pointed to those common people and said to Chu Yao.

"Look, they can't wait to drink my blood, eat my flesh, peel my skin, and constrict my tendons, but so what? I can still survive for thousands of years in the history books, but they have lived this life, and there are still people who will remember?"

"It's just an ant, and before noon, Master Chu concluded that I couldn't survive?"

Someone shouted, "Marquis Shen, here we come!"

Then figures with knives rushed out of the crowd one by one.

When the people saw this, they all panicked and began to crazily push the officers and soldiers.

Seeing this scene, Chu Yao suddenly woke up.

Yes, how could he lose? As a Norwegian spy who had been lurking for decades, how could he just admit defeat in such a high position.

He was afraid that someone would rob the court!
Chu Yao's face was gloomy and cold, and he took out the gold stabbing token: "All officers and soldiers obey the order, be sure to guard Shen Shen, and don't let anyone rescue him!"

In the chaos, more than a dozen knives were stabbed into the hearts of officers and soldiers.

Dozens of men in bamboo hats rushed towards the execution platform frantically. They staggered with each other. The long knives in their hands split every spear that was handed to them, and then handed them to the necks of the officers and soldiers, pulling them hard.

A Shura field had already formed on the stage, and the people near the stage were so scared that their faces turned pale. They could only scream and back away, but they were crowded by the people behind and tried to walk on the stage.

Stampede, screams, and cries all became one, and the scene was completely out of control.

Chu Yao frantically rushed towards Shen, but a man in a bamboo hat blocked his way with a horizontal knife.

"I've wanted to learn about the Chu family's Thirteen Killing Swords for a long time, Mr. Chu, please give me your advice!"

After finishing speaking, he stepped up from the ground, opened and closed the long knife in his hand, and approached Chu Yao in an instant.

Chu Yao didn't dare to push himself too hard, he leaned to the left, dodged a knife, stepped on his feet, bounced his body, and avoided the horizontal thrust!
At the moment of landing, the deadly thirteen knives were aimed at the opponent's throat.

The opponent drew his knife to block it, and the powerful impact hit the knife, shaking him back several steps.

"Thirteen deadly swords really deserve their reputation." The man in the bamboo hat put away his contempt.

Holding the knife in both hands, he slashed over frantically.

Seeing Chu Yao being entangled by the swordsman in a bamboo hat, the officers and soldiers lost to each other and fell one by one.

Now it has shrunk into a group surrounded by Shen Zhong, and there are very few intact ones.

At this moment, more than a hundred war horses rushed out of the alley, and more than a hundred people in bamboo hats killed them.

The knives and crossbows are well configured.

The war horses neighed and charged the crowd mercilessly. The leader was tall and strong, and the long knife in his hand kept slashing. Wherever he passed, his arms and legs were broken and his head was flying.

Blood was poured all over the ground, flowing slowly along the cracks in the bluestone bricks, and it was already close in the blink of an eye.

"Master Shen, please follow me and leave quickly."

Shen Zhong flew on the horse, sped away, turned his head and glanced at Chu Yao, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and said loudly.

"Lord Chu, I said that it won't be the last moment, so don't be too confident. I lost here, why not you!"

After speaking, he turned around and galloped away on horseback.

Seeing that Shen Zhong had escaped, the bamboo hat man at the side forced Chu Yao back with a knife, kicked a few steps in the air, and rode his horse hurriedly.

Seeing that they had gone far away, Chu Yao could only stop and chase after them with a cold look on his face.

Instead, go back to the palace and inform the emperor.

At this time, Jiang Yue didn't know that the capital was in turmoil. She was looking up to the sky, and saw dark clouds and strong winds.

Looking at the dam that was about to be completed, he frowned.

Xu Wen, who was also anxious beside him, looked worried, "My lord, it looks like it's going to rain, let's go back first!"

Jiang Yue glanced at him and shook her head, "No, going back at this time is tantamount to a failure. The flood will break out again, and the dam will be washed away again."

"But if it rains, the water in the river is so fast that we dare not go into the water at all! If the embankment is washed away, just start over again."

Jiang Yue frowned and thought...
