The queen mother wants to go against the sky: General, please take your seat

Chapter 438 An Unusual Death

For a while, everyone was watching Yan Dongjin, and even the yamen servants who were chasing the female prisoner stopped. They were working as errands in Dali Temple, so they could naturally recognize Yan Dongjin.

"Master Yan?" Seeing that Yan Dongjin was stunned on the spot, Zhuang Zheng had no choice but to yell Yan Dongjin in a low voice, the country has state laws, the family has family rules, sympathy is not the reason for them to save the criminals in the execution ground.

No one knows why the female prisoner asked Yan Dongjin for help, not to mention the dim lights in the rainy night, the female prisoner should not be able to see Yan Dongjin's appearance clearly, even if she did, Yan Dongjin's appearance is good, but it is by no means impossible With an approachable appearance, how could this female prisoner hand over her child to Yan Dongjin?

The female prisoner's hands trembled violently, and the baby's loud cries became weak.

"Let's go back to the palace," Prince Rui turned to greet Yan Dongjin and said.

But at this moment, Yan Dongjin stretched out his hand to take the baby from the prisoner's hand, and looked up at Prince Rui with a dazed expression.

Prince Rui frowned immediately.

King Qi's face was completely gloomy, and he strode up to Yan Dongjin and asked, "What are you going to do?"

Yan Dongjin opened his mouth, as if he wanted to answer, but he really didn't think about how to answer.

The female prisoner didn't give Yan Dongjin any time to think about it. She had a pretty face and was still very young. The former lady suddenly stood up from the ground. King Qi's guards were about to step forward to protect her lord. But he saw the female prisoner lowered her head and rushed towards the stone pier beside her.

The stone pier is the cornerstone of the divine beast that suppresses the grievances of the dead in the execution ground. The six-sided corners were carefully polished by the stonemason. The head of the female prisoner happened to hit one of the corners. He fell under the stone pier, and his white brains mixed with blood flowed all over the floor.

Everyone looked at the female prisoner's body, but no one spoke, and no one blamed Prince Rui for being too cruel. If one day Qin Wang Li Qibing entered the capital and would be kneeling on this execution ground waiting to be beheaded, maybe they and their families would be the ones.

King Qi looked at the female prisoner and cursed in a low voice, but no one could hear the words clearly, turned his head and looked at Yan Dongjin again, and said coldly: "This king is asking you something, are you dumb?"

Yan Dongjin hugged the baby in his hand a little tighter, pursed his lips, looked at Prince Rui and said: "My lord, I want to take him away."

"What?" Qi Wang was angry, "Yan Dongjin, do you know what you are doing?!"

Yan Dong lowered his head as much as he could. This was not a gesture of confrontation, but it was not a gesture of retreat either.

"Come here," King Qi ordered, "Bring that little prisoner to me!"

The guards of Prince Qi's Mansion were about to step forward, and several guards from the Liaodong General's Mansion suddenly stepped forward to protect Yan Dong.

King Qi became even more furious, "What do you want to do? Are you going to rebel against Yan Dongjin?" Lord Qi asked Yan Dongjin angrily.

Yan Dongjin held the baby and did not let go, nor did he let the guards around him back down.

Zhuang Zheng didn't know what his young master Yan was going to do, but at this time, Zhuang Zheng had to stand on Yan Dongjin's side without any choice, regardless of whether Yan Dongjin's actions were right or wrong, looking back, it was right or wrong, they had The major general went to worry about it, but if Zhuang Zheng turned against Yan Dong at this time and turned to Qi Wang Li Qi, then Mo Sangqing would definitely not let him go, whether right or wrong, he would not let him go.

The Liaodong elite cavalry who followed them all took three steps forward, forming a confrontation with the guards of Prince Qi's Mansion and the servants of Dali Temple.

It's hard for King Qi to ride a tiger now, no matter how much Prince Qi can think about it, he can't imagine that Yan Dong will turn his face against him because of a child.

Zhao Jihuan stood beside his lord, drenched by the cold rain, but still sweated profusely. Looking at his lord's furrowed brows, Chief Guard Zhao said, relying on his acquaintance with Yan Dong: "Master Yan, do you recognize this family?"

Yan Dongjin shook his head.

Zhao Jihuan was choked all of a sudden, so what are you going crazy about, Yan Dongji?

King Qi said at this time: "The severe winter is over, what if I don't release this little death row prisoner today? You want to fight with me?"

Yan Dongjin still remained silent, his lips were tightly pursed, as if he refused to talk to King Qi.

Just when King Qi was about to fly into a rage, Prince Rui laughed suddenly, this laugh sounded a little helpless, and also a bit joking, King Qi looked at his imperial brother inexplicably, what's so funny about it?

Prince Rui covered his mouth and coughed, walked up to Yan Dongjin as if nothing had happened, glanced at the little baby being held by Yan Dongjin, and said, "Are you pitying him?"

Yan Dong responded: "Yes."

"Want to take him away?" Prince Rui asked.

Yan Dong nodded.

"Okay, for your sake," Prince Rui let go, "I will spare his life."

King Qi's anger was beyond words, and when he opened his mouth to shout out his dissatisfaction, Prince Rui looked back at him, this look was gloomy, with an unquestionable warning, King Qi closed his mouth.

"Bring this child, let's go." Prince Rui came back to his senses, his face was cold, but his eyes became gentle, he said to Yan Dong, "Or do you want to stay and see?"

"Thank you, my lord," Yan Dongjin thanked Prince Rui in a low voice, turned around holding the baby and got on the horse.

"Get on the horse," a captain ordered loudly.

The fine cavalry and the guards of the Liaodong General's Mansion all got on their horses neatly.

"Let's talk about it later." Prince Rui turned his head and whispered to King Qi again: "The action here needs to be quicker, is it possible to kill until tomorrow?"

King Qi didn't speak with a blush, he just looked at Yan Dongjin who was sitting on the horseback.

Prince Rui got on the horse, urged the horse and went forward.

Yan Dongjin hugged the baby and didn't look back. The female prisoner's family, the big family kneeling in the heavy rain, didn't look back at Yan Dongjin.The surviving child will no longer use their surname, and Yan Dongjin will never let the child know their family. In this way, even if the child can grow up, marry a wife and have children, but for them , this child is not able to continue the existence of their family blood, the female prisoner died in exchange for this child's life.

King Qi watched Prince Rui and Yan Dongjin's group walk away, then turned around with a look of hatred, and ordered to the left and right: "Why are you all looking at this king? Are these criminals going to stay until dawn before killing them?!"

Heads continued to fall on the execution ground, and no one knew how many floors would be scraped off the execution ground at dawn.

The concubine of the Qin Dynasty was put on the execution platform. The wooden stake was soaked in human blood, and her original color could no longer be seen. The concubine desperately wanted to retreat, but the servants grabbed her hair and pressed down hard. His face was stuck to the round wooden stake that was greasy because it was soaked in blood.

"That is the eldest concubine of Prince Qin's mansion," the staff whispered to King Qi on the execution platform.

King Qi sat with a gloomy face, without saying a word.

Nai Zishou raised the ghost head knife in his hand high, and then dropped it heavily. The concubine's head fell into the blood mud under the stake, and the blood gushed out from the cut, making the stake drink again. The death of the eldest concubine of Prince Qin's Mansion was really nothing special after a blood test.
