During the ten years of Mingde in the Great Xia Dynasty, he controlled the government, formed cliques for personal gain, engaged in corruption and extravagance, and assassinated the late emperor...
The eunuch Yun Shu of the Wei clan, the son of a prison official who had committed eighteen major crimes, was signed by everyone from the government and the public to participate in the performance. The young emperor was furious and immediately ordered people to arrest him and throw him into prison.
The prisoner Wei Yunshu confessed to all his crimes, and his only request was to exchange the immediate punishment of beheading for Ling Chi. Everyone in the world was greedy for life and feared death, so Wei Yunshu continued to report, and the young emperor finally agreed.
The crimes committed by Wei's prisoners are too numerous to be recorded. On the day of execution, thousands of people rushed to watch, and the people hated him deeply. Every piece of his meat was eaten by the people.
——"History of Mingde in Daxia·Biography of Cheng Chen"
Regarding the deeds of Wei Yunshu, there are only a few short sentences in the "Biography of Renchen". Later generations only know that there was such a eunuch and eunuch during the Mingde period of the Xia Dynasty. He was completely bad and could not stand up to Mingde.
Emperor, I cannot do justice to the people of Li. In short, I have committed a lot of crimes. But they can't tell what the specific crimes are. Not only can future generations not be able to tell, but even the current people can't tell.
They just knew that the eunuch named Wei Yunshu was a bad guy. He had intercepted the taxes that should be exempted and exempted. He had embezzled the money that should be paid to the families of the sergeants. He was also responsible for the epidemics that had been spread before...
"Listen, this is public resentment, right? It's really scary."
In the prison, the Imperial Master was sitting on the main seat, looking at the inhuman figure hanging on the torture rack, and showed a satisfied smile.
"Wei Yunshu, Wei Yunshu, tell me why you are doing this? Have you ever committed any of the eighteen deadly sins? You haven't. Not only do I know this, but His Majesty also knows it, and everyone in the civil and military dynasty knows it, but will they stand up and say it?
How is it possible?! Isn't this the best time to put all the blame on you? Listen, there are even things like bullying men and dominating women. You are really bad, why are there so many
Why don't people like you? I see that there are so many officials in the government and the public, but not one of them intercedes for you, which shows how unpopular you are. Tsk, tsk, tsk, I can't bear it anymore."
Wei Yunshu was covered in blood, but only one face was intact. This was exactly what the Imperial Master wanted. It would be such a pity to destroy such a beautiful face. Even when the execution was held later, we could not do anything to this face.
ah.
Hearing the words of the Imperial Master, Wei Yunshu did not waver at all. He just looked up at the small window of the cell and observed the sky outside through the small window. It was almost dawn.
Seeing that Wei Yunshu remained silent and the Imperial Master didn't care, he seemed to be trapped in his own memories, venting the emotions that had been accumulated in his heart for a long time.
"I really find it strange that people like you, people like you, who are obviously superior and have been lacking anything since birth, can't they live their own lives well? You have to save this one and that one. His Highness the Crown Prince is
In this way, the same is true for you. Do the ignorant people outside really know the benefits of defeating Rongdi? They only know that under the leadership of your great Majesty, they defeated a foreign nation thousands of miles away. They are not frontier people, how could it be possible?
Knowing how terrible Rong Di is, how can you know what it feels like to be trampled on and ravaged? But do the people you save know how good you are? Even if they really know, do they know the suffering you are suffering now? Can they save you?
Are you in fire or water? They can't!"
"Did you hear Wei Yunshu, they can't. So I'm curious, do you regret it?"
The Imperial Master stepped down from his seat and walked to Wei Yunshu. Looking at him covered in blood, he showed a sincere expression of confusion. Wei Yunshu didn't mind his expression. He just looked at the gradually brightening light and suddenly remembered
An old thing from long ago.
"The late emperor was actually a very smart man, and he was very skilled in the art of controlling and balancing the court. However, he did not love this country or his own people. In his eyes, he was the only one."
"When the Wei family was destroyed, I had just been castrated. The late emperor summoned me, and he asked me, 'Why do you still want to live like this?'"
"I said."
Even now, Wei Yunshu still clearly remembers the scene of that day. There is an unparalleled light in his eyes. This light has never disappeared from the beginning to the end, no matter how the world changes and whether suffering follows him or not.
"I said, 'I want to pacify the Rong and Di, bring order to the world, and restore peace and prosperity to the people of the world.'"
"Then, the late emperor gave me the opportunity and also put shackles on me. In order to achieve this goal, I have done many things in my life. Some are good and some are bad... I am not a good person, nor do I have a clear conscience. I
This half of my life is just for this one thing. If you ask me, do you regret it? No regrets. Even if I had to do it over again, I would make the same choice."
After hearing this answer, the smile on the Imperial Master's face froze for a moment, then he looked at Wei Yunshu coldly, then sneered and walked towards the cell door.
"Then I'll see how you endure this punishment of being cut into pieces without any regrets."
Hearing the footsteps gradually leaving, Wei Yunshu looked at the sky and calculated the time. In three days, at least three days, the result of this war should be spread to the imperial capital. After decades of planning, the final result still wanted to be heard by himself.
Hear it. If he dies, who can ensure that there is really a so-called soul? No matter when it comes, Wei Yunshu will always be Wei Yunshu. Even if he looks glamorous on the surface, he will never allow anything to go beyond his expectations.
"Bang bang", the cell door opened, and the jailer walked in with torture tools. Wei Yunshu took a look at the Buddhist beads hanging on his wrist. In the dimly lit prison, those carefully carved beads seemed to be glowing. He slowly closed the door.
Lifting his eyes, Wei Yunshu revealed a gentle smile.
"Changsheng! Stop! If you keep running like this, you will become disabled!"
Because he ran too fast, he crashed into a big tree. The tree exploded into sawdust. Changsheng himself was also hit black and blue, and his leg bones also made a dangerous clicking sound. Changsheng's face was expressionless.
He climbed up from the ground with an expression on his face, straightened his leg bones, and then continued running forward.
Anyway, she won't die, it's just this level of injury, it's just this level of injury, it's completely bearable.
Before this, the Yuanji Impermanent Carp had already tried to come out of the Changsheng Dantian, but as soon as the tip of its tail was exposed, the sky thunder struck down neatly, directly chopping out the place where Changsheng was at that time.
A huge pit with a radius of dozens of feet! Everything was destroyed wherever it went.
Therefore, Changsheng can only go on his own. But, is it really too late?
If you can come in time, you must come in time! Because...
"I gave him a string of Buddhist beads. As long as he is not fatally injured, it can keep him alive for a few days. Even if something happens to him, the court will have to go through a proper criminal trial process, and the execution will have to be during the autumn harvest at the earliest.
"
Having said that, in fact, even Changsheng himself doubts this time. Wei Yunshu is not a simple ordinary official. Once he shows his weakness, his enemies will bite him like a madman. Now, the only hope is Wei Yunshu himself.
.
Don't give up, Wei Yunshu, don't give up! Don't let me look down on you!
When reading these chapters, I always feel very complicated...
