Chapter 100
: The person left under the knife
Seeing that the beautiful woman in blue and snow-skinned said something "out of her will" in her mouth, Wang Jinglong was already in tears. He said that she was sad, but he did not dare to speak out in a blunt way. He couldn't help but feel secretly happy. He immediately put on a heart-to-heart expression and said sincerely: "
Miss Su, Wang came here today to rescue the girl from the fire pit. The girl was insincere, but she still believed it? Miss must not suspect that she was sincere and dare not hide it from Miss Su. Today, the three departments will be tried, and Ni Qian, the Imperial Heaven Supervisor, has already issued a great punishment. The emperor issued an order that Yang Ling and the four of them will be killed at Caishikou at noon tomorrow. Haha, the girl should not be afraid of him anymore."
Yu Tangchun was like a bolt from the blue when she heard the news. She took a few steps back, and was so shocked that she lost her face. She said in a trembling voice: "What are you... what did you say? Lord Yang... he is going to be beheaded? I don't believe it! No! I don't believe it!"
Seeing her frightened, Wang Jinglong couldn't help but show off and intimidate: "Wang is absolutely silent! Not only is Yang Ling going to die, but the whole Yang family may not be safe. The girl is beautiful and beautiful, and her country is beautiful. Are you not afraid of being regarded as an official slave and being sold to the Jiaofangsi to suffer?"
Su San's mind was thunderous, but Yang Ling was about to be asked tomorrow, and he couldn't answer at all. Seeing that Yu Tangchun's face was as dark as the color of earth, his lips were trembling and had lost their blood. He even scared her as he was talking heavily, and quickly relaxed his tone and comforted him: "But Miss, don't be too scared.
Wang has been obsessed with the lady since she met her, and she can't forget it. How could she bear to watch the lady suffer so much? Miss Su, Yang Ling hired you as a concubine, but she concealed her identity as a slave. It can be seen that what she likes is just your appearance. How could she have any true feelings for you? Haven't the lady woke up yet?"
He sighed casually and said calmly: "You are a beautiful lady, why are you a thief?"
Yu Tangchun felt a sudden heart. The prince obviously knew a lot of inside story. He said this just to save me. If the emperor really wanted to add all the Yang family to the Jiaofangsi, what way would he do to save people? Could it be that he had some other idea?
What a person Yu Tangchun is? He laughs in front of people and sheds tears behind his back. He is the best at hiding his doubts in his heart. He immediately snatches up and cries on the ground and says, "Hongfu runs at night, Luzhu falls from the building. We miserable women are just asking for a affectionate husband for the rest of our lives. Yang Ling is not a good man. I hope the young master will be merciful and save the maid!"
Wang Jinglong was overjoyed and hurriedly stepped forward to help her up and said, "Miss, why should I be so polite? Wang can get Miss "Green Xiaoshao.com" and the good night of explanation is that it is a matter of no need." As he said that, he couldn't help but gently pinched Yutang's pink and soft white wrist.
Yutang's face turned red, and he retracted his hand with a whisper, saying in a low voice: "Young master, don't do this, this is in the Yang family."
When Wang Jinglong heard that the Yang family had already had an external heart for Yang Ling, he couldn't help but be happy: "This mighty mansion will be turned into ruins in an instant, and the Yang family will no longer exist soon. Why should I worry about it? As long as the lady nods, she will be the jade man in the Shangshu Mansion."
Yu Tangchun said with concern: "But... Yang Ling is very respected by the emperor. How could he kill him if he says he kills him? Besides, if the emperor ordered the Yang family to be slaves, why would the young master... save me?"
Seeing her suspicion, Wang Jinglong even believed that she was in a hurry to leave the Yang family and found another supporter. He hurriedly said, "This is easy, you just need to follow my arrangements and I will keep you safe."
Wang Jinglong knew that Yang Ling would die tomorrow, and who else in the Yang family took it in his eyes. This time he entered the house, he was arrogant and arrogant. In his heart, the woman who came from a happy scene only knew the pros and cons, so how could she have feelings? He said that Yu Tangchun would definitely want to be his concubine based on his own conditions.
In a state of pride, he told the plan of the beauty who had surrendered to him. Yu Tangchun gritted his teeth and said shyly on his face: "So, Su San thanks the young master, and Su San lets everything be arranged by the young master."
She used to do business of laughter and laughter. She felt unhappy in her heart and could pretend to be happy on her face. At this time, she wanted to deceive him. Her deceitful charming voice was extremely charming. When Wang Jinglong heard another meaning of "let the young master arrange it", she immediately thought of the other meaning of "let the young master arrange it". Her soul flew up and she wanted to take this stuttering little beauty home immediately.
Such a beautiful woman with a weak body... By the way, there is another one. Wang Jinglong hurriedly said: "By the way, the girl Xuelimei who was redeemed with you, I don't know if she is determined to escape from the fire pit. If you two come forward, it will be even more credible..."
Yu Tangchun really wanted to slap this shameless person. Thinking of Xuelimei's bad temperament and hiding her joys and anger, if she came, she would inevitably be seen through. Yu Tangchun hurriedly said, "Xuelimei is very favored by Lord Yang, and I'm afraid she may not be willing to follow the young master. The maid is not sure. The young master is so impatient. If she says to her in advance, what if the news is leaked..."
Wang Jinglong hurriedly said, "Miss is thinking about not saying it anymore. If she doesn't know the current affairs, she will take it upon herself." Wang Jinglong said, but he was secretly proud in his heart. He only thought that Yu Tangchun was competing for favor. The girl was also pretty and had a unique beauty like cold plums. Since he had the opportunity to take it back to the mansion with righteousness, he was a little reluctant to let it go. He just wanted to wait until the Yang family broke the family tomorrow before he could share half of the contribution of Yu Tangchun's treacherous and bring her back to the mansion.
Wang Jinglong told Yu Tangchun in detail about the plan he planned. Seeing that the old butler had been shaking outside the hall several times, he was afraid that he would be suspicious, so he had to say goodbye and go home to slander Yang Ling.
Yu Tangchun called the housekeeper to send Wang Jinglong out. She turned around and hurriedly walked around the middle hall when she saw Xue Limei standing behind her pink face. When she saw her coming, Xue Limei didn't say anything, and slapped her in the face, which made Yu Tangchun stunned.
Xue Limei sneered: "I have been with your sister for many years, but I am not as cruel as you! Hong Fu runs at night, Lu Zhu falls from the building? Bah! They are the strange women in the dust, and you Su San deserve to compare with them?
Get out! Get out, if lord is really irrescue, I, Xuelimei, can't even hang myself and beg for death. I will accompany him on the road to the underworld. You can enjoy your glory and wealth. If you want to stay and frame lord, don't blame me for turning against you."
Yu Tangchun touched the five finger marks on her face and smiled bitterly: "When will you change your temper? Fortunately, I saw that hypocrite today. If it were you, once someone said unfair to the master, you would have already had a good time. Can you still get this news? Hurry! Go back to the back hall and talk about it after seeing the wife."
Xue Limei was pulled back to the back hall by her, so she had saved the taste. Yu Tangchun had no time to explain to her. She hurriedly told Youniang about the news that came from Wang Jinglong. When Youniang heard that her husband was going to be asked tomorrow, her body shook and almost fainted. Gao Wenxin saw that her face was stagnant, and she hurriedly supported her. She pulled out two golden needles from her sleeve and stabbed her behind her neck a few times, and called out anxiously: "Madam, I'm so panicked. Now that the lord is waiting to die, how can I think of a way to live?"
Although Han Youniang loved Yang Ling very much, even if she sacrificed her life, she would not want him to be hurt. However, the emperor's life was killed. In her heart, she could not think of anyone else in the world who could save him.
She was determined to go out to prison to save people with her martial arts skills. Although she knew that the hope was slim and she could die with her husband. But what should she do with her father and three brothers in the tomb? If she did this, wouldn’t it hurt them to die together?
Han Youniang was worried and could not do anything with strength. Two lines of clear tears were rustling and kept flowing down.
Yu Tangchun said panic: "Wang Jinglong wants to frame the young master's reputation and let his brother harm others with confidence. We can punish him for this matter, but the emperor will not pardon the adults because of this. What can we do with a woman?"
Xuelimei said angrily: "Why can't you save us? We are the ones we want from the Marquis of Shouning. Marquis of Shouning even had three points of fear. The Lord has cured us and he has brought us out? Sister Wenxin is an imperial offender. No one said he can't save us, but he has found a way to save us? Now that the Lord is in trouble, we women can only sit here and cry to death? If we don't think about how to have a way? If I want to learn, I will learn to beat Liang Hongyu and beat drums to help my husband, and I will never learn to be a lush bead and will only fall to show my ambitions."
Xuelimei has always been a maid in the Yang family, and a maid is not a maid, and a concubine is not a concubine. However, as soon as she said this, she clearly regarded herself as Yang Ling's concubine. After she finished speaking, she saw that the three of them looked at her with strange eyes. She couldn't help but blush and said embarrassedly: "Sister Young Mother, my life is here, I..."
Han Youniang sighed sadly: "How can I not know your thoughts? But my husband can't save me anymore. I am his wife. I should share his life and death with him and never leave me! You are nameless in the Yang family, so why bother with this? I'm going to withdraw money this morning. You guys will take it away quickly. And Sister Wenxin, you can escape too. When my husband is beheaded, even when you die, I'm not afraid of instigating you to offend the emperor."
Yu Tangchun blushed and said, "Sister Young Mother, if you are determined to die, Su San is willing to live and die with you... but... Is there any hope? What if the complainant is willing to redeem the confession?"
Gao Wenxin shook his head and sighed, "Don't think about it anymore. He is not a crazy person. How could he be... crazy... crazy?" Gao Wenxin suddenly felt his heart moving when he said this, and his eyes muttered a little strangely.
Xuelimei said anxiously: "Then ask the emperor to go to the tomb to investigate. Two days ago, Lord Qian came to the mansion to report the news. Didn't he say that we should wait with peace of mind and say that the matter on the tomb is seamless and there is no evidence? How could the court be afraid that if it touches Feng Shui, it will not be tested, and it will be killed based on personal confessions? Let's go to sue the emperor and ask the emperor to send someone to Tailing to inspect it!"
Yu Tangchun said: "This is the only way to live in death, but... how can we get into the Forbidden City? We can't see the emperor at all!"
At this time, Gao Wenxin suddenly said, "If I were to see that witness, I would have a way to make him...make him crazy. If the words said can't be used as evidence, just how can I see him? Besides, Lord Yang will be...it's going to be...it's too late tomorrow."
Han Youniang was revitalized by what they said. She suddenly remembered what Yang Ling asked Qian Ning to tell her, and couldn't help but feel excited. She said to Yu Tangchun and the other two: "These can be planned slowly, but the most urgent thing is to stop the execution. Youniang already had an idea in her mind. Maybe she could force the emperor to retrial, but this method was very dangerous, and it might be that the emperor was furious and immediately chopped our heads. You... are you really willing to stay?"
The three girls nodded heavily, without any hesitation in their expressions. Han Youniang stood up with tears in her eyes and bowed to the three of them. Gao Wenxin and the other two hurriedly knelt down and returned the salute. Gao Wenxin said, "Madam, don't do this, we can't afford it."
Han Youniang smiled with tears in her eyes and said, "Xue'er is right. For my husband, even if there is a glimmer of hope, I should strive for it. For my husband, I have resisted the imperial edict, and I, a woman, cannot sue the emperor? The three of you will never leave me when my Yang family is in such a disaster. Youniang thanks you on behalf of you. If you don't abandon me, Youniang will be sisters with you, and from then on, we will share good fortune and good fortune!"
The three girls looked at each other and kowtowed deeply as the young lady kowtowed. The sky was filled with rainy lights flashed suddenly, and then a huge thunderclap sounded, shaking the window frames.
The Ministry of Justice Tianlao is divided into two parts, the south and north offices, and there are two corner gates from east to west. The prisoners are released or passed by the court, and they are also called Qinglong Gate. The prisoners are executed and go to the West Gate, also known as the White Tiger Gate. Yang Ling did not know this rule, but the Minister of Works Li Duo and Ni Qian, but Dai Yi knew it, so as soon as they were taken out of the West Gate, the faces and legs were weak.
When he arrived at the lobby of the prison hall, he knelt down and listened to the imperial edict. The officer asked for his name, age, origin, and when he found out that his true self, Yang Ling realized that the deadline was up. Dai Yi and Li Duo were both cruel characters, and Yang Ling also knew that there was still a way out for his life without recruitment. He would undoubtedly die if he recruited him. Therefore, when he was punished, he gritted his teeth and refused to resist. He only hoped that the Jinyiwei would find evidence to force several ministers as soon as possible, and at the same time, the spread of rumors alarmed the Shengting and made him feel scrupled.
But these are all slow skills and cannot save the emergency. Ni Qian, the Imperial Heaven Superintendent, could not bear the pain. He grabbed a stick and used a slap to make him die. He had to endure the torture but had to be retaliated. However, he immediately resigned after the torture was stopped. This caused the ministers of the three corps to be furious. He ordered him to sign the confession during the punishment, and then he would not report it to the emperor directly.
Emperor Zhengde heard that someone had confessed, and these people really deceived the emperor and were furious and immediately ordered the four people to be beheaded. Liu Jin and others were extremely angry when they saw Zhengde, and they did not dare to plead for Yang Ling.
Hong Zhong originally wanted to expand the results of the battle and implicate a few more people to show the power of the Ministry of Justice, but the imperial edict was issued, so he had to reluctantly raise the four of them to prison, which also disrupted the Jinyiwei's plan, and the original method was too late to use.
Hundreds of yamen runners from the Ministry of Justice rushed to Caishikou in a mule cart that imprisoned four people. The four looked pale, their hands and fingers were covered with blood and flesh.
Caishikou is a downtown area. People from south to south pass Lugou Bridge, Guang'anmen, and Beijing's inner city, most of them have to pass here. Originally, this place was called Chaishikou, and the first celebrity killed here was Wen Tianxiang, the prime minister of the Song Dynasty who had been imprisoned in Dayuan Prison for four years and was not moved by the power of the glory, wealth and beautiful women.
Yang Ling and the other four were taken out of the prison car and pushed to the beheading platform set up at the T-junction. Yang Ling raised his head and squinted his eyes to look into the distance. After the heavy rain last night, the branches and leaves of the two rows of locust trees were as green as new. Looking north, you can see the majestic and solemn Xuanwu Gate from afar. Yang Ling sighed softly, and a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: It seems that the journey to the Ming Dynasty from the original was over early. He had only been alive for more than a year, and he didn't care much about his life or death, but he couldn't worry about his young mother's safety.
He did not regret the stupid things he did. He could not care whether the Ming Dynasty was destroyed or not, or whether the emperor was a foolish monarch. He did not have such a strong sense of historical mission. If he could change, he would change it. If he couldn't change, he would let it go. After all, prosperity is history, and decline is also history. In the era when he traveled through time, the Chinese had escaped from that period of suffering.
But he couldn't see many people living around him starving to death because of him. To him, these people were not ancient people, nor a miserable history on the pile of old papers. Those people were alive under his nose, and those pitiful people living at the bottom of society.
These people who are bitter and terrified with their faces facing the loess and backs on the sky provide people like him with rich clothes and food, just wanting to have their own food. If they have a little conscience, how can he do what will force them to death? Enjoy glory and wealth with peace of mind? If that is the case, he believes that even the young mother will look down on him as her husband.
Today, all the ministers in the court were killed, and the case was in great heat. The prison officer was personally appointed by the Minister of Justice and the First-rank Master Hong Zhong. Seeing that noon was approaching, Hong Zhong lifted the red pen from the tin pen holder, hooked the slaying sign, and threw it down: "The time has come, behead!"
Yang Ling is a famous figure in the capital. It is also said that he died tragically because he asked for his life for the people. Countless people came to see him off. Hearing the word "kill", the crowd couldn't help but feel a stir. Suddenly, a crying voice shouted: "Honor!"
Yang Ling's body shook and looked into the crowd in the sound. Han Youniang was wearing white clothes and was stopped outside the crowd by soldiers with guns. She was struggling to squeeze in. Gao Wenxin and Xue Limei were helping her push the spear. Yang Ling's lips trembled and said tremblingly: "Young Mom..."
At this moment, his tears also fell. After looking at him for a long time, he closed his eyes and shouted loudly: "Young Mother, go back, don't watch me behead you. Sister Xueer, Miss Wenxin, take good care of Youth Mother for me. Youth Mother, my husband is sorry for you, I can't accompany you for the rest of my life. My husband is sorry for you..."
He shouted to the sky and said, "But my husband can't choose either. He can't be both a martyr and a birthday star, and he can't be both a high-ranking official and a hermit. You and I come from the rooster. My husband knows what hard life the people live. He is worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth, but... he has made you suffer, young mother."
Yang Ling had good intentions, and no one could forgive his serious crimes, but the treasure she left at home was enough to protect Young Lady from being implicated. Now that she is doing this scene, the reputation of a good official who loves the people as much as her son will be retained. If anyone else wants to slander and frame Young Lady, he has to be worried.
Han Youniang cried, "Honey, you are not sorry to me. You are an open and honest man. This is the good husband in Youniang's mind!"
When the people next to him saw that the young lady was blocked outside, they immediately started to clamor: "Let them meet each other, sir, let them meet each other!"
Seeing the crowd of emotions, Hong Zhong hurriedly shouted: "Chun! Kill them immediately! Kill them all!"
The executioner walked up to the stage in red clothes, with his chest and belly, carrying a ghost-headed sword, walked up to them, knelt on one knee, and said politely: "I'll give you a greeting, please return to heaven!"
This is the privilege of officials, and ordinary people do not have such treatment. Han Youniang asked and asked for the beheading immediately when she heard this. She was anxious and did not care about the officers and soldiers' stops. She held the red tassel gun with both hands and raised her legs and kicked left and right. The two officers and soldiers were kicked in the weak part of their knees and could no longer stand and staggered back. Han Youniang immediately flew forward, jumped onto the platform, knelt down to Yang Ling, hugged him and cried.
Yang Ling smiled and said, "Young mom, don't cry, my husband... my husband..." He was trembling and speechless. Hong Zhong was anxious and angry. He suddenly stood up and pointed at the officers and soldiers and said, "Take me down immediately and behead my head immediately!"
"Let's go!" Han Youniang shouted, knelt down and turned around, shouting loudly: "My husband is wronged, please start a retrial! My husband is wronged!"
After hearing this, Ni Qian stretched his neck and shouted loudly: "I am wronged, wronged, I am wronged!" Dai Yi and Li Duo saw the opportunity, hurriedly followed him and shouted for wronged. When the people around him heard this, they burst into noise, and some shouted loudly: "Some people shouted for wronged, and they were suspended and retrial!"
Yang Ling just smiled helplessly and whispered: "Be good at young mother, my dear wife, don't anger the adults. Only when you live well can your husband... be at ease leaving!"
Li Duo and others were dissatisfied with the complaints in the court. Even Ni Qian said that the emperor had sent someone to dig the ground to find out the truth and falsehood. What's the use of calling for justice at this time? But he didn't know that these people were about to die, and the extreme fear in his heart, even if he found a reason to live for a while, he would have to earn it hard.
Hong Zhong sneered: "You have to regret it before the ink on the confession is dry? The prison officer will take someone to pull away the troublemakers. If you dare to make trouble, you will arrest me and execute the execution immediately!"
"Who dares to kill my husband?" Han Youniang knelt close to Yang Ling. If the executioner holding the ghost-headed sword was swung down from the air, the young lady would have to accompany Yang Ling to be chopped together.
Hong Zhong was furious and said to Cheng Wenyi, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice who was suppressing the scene: "I am sentenced to death by the imperial edict. If there are obstructions, I will be punished with the same crime. I will take down Yang Han immediately!"
Cheng Wenyi waved his hand and led four sword heads to the stage. He just saw Han Youniang breaking into the law and jumped onto the platform in one step. He knew that this woman had good martial arts skills, so he took four masters of the Six Doors.
Cheng Wenyi came to Youniang with a knife and sneered: "Madam Yang, please withdraw from the court immediately. I will not pursue your crime of disturbance, otherwise... you know the consequences!"
Yang Ling was so anxious that his eyes widened. He was pressed by the executioner and could not move. He was so anxious that he kept hitting the young lady with his shoulders and said anxiously: "Go away, go quickly, why should you accompany me to die? You mom, don't be stubborn, young lady!"
Han Youniang knelt on both knees, pulled out a scroll from her backpack with her back hand, raised her hands high above her head, slowly spreading in the air, covering Yang Ling and her own heads in the shadow. She stared at her stubborn eyes and said loudly: "My husband is wronged, he is accused. The civilian girl sued the emperor today, and only asked the emperor to send it back to retrial. If the civilian girl falsely accused, she would be willing to commit the same crime as her husband!"
Chapter completed!
