Yan Cheng sighed and said: "I never thought that I could go back alive, I just wanted to admit this matter. Moreover, now that the matter is at this point, everything is meaningless. Why don't you refuse to admit it, Mr. Xia?"
After saying this, he closed his eyes again, lowered his head slightly, and refused to say another word.
When people heard these words, there was an uproar immediately...
"The special envoy of Yuelun Kingdom actually admitted this matter! The so-called righteous words of the Daqian woman before were really all lies!"
"Yan Cheng is a well-known loyal minister in the moon cycle. It is said that this person speaks a thousand pieces of gold and never lies! So, the truth is..."
"That's right, everything that Da Gan woman said must be false! She just shamelessly wanted to absolve herself! We... how could we believe her words before and thus doubt our own kingdom!"
"Hateful! The sanctimonious Dagan people are really hateful!"
The angry words almost drowned the entire execution ground in an instant. Anger, at this moment, all the goodwill people had towards the Dagan people disappeared in an instant, and all that was left was anger!
Xia Qianjie was silent, but in fact, no matter what she said at this moment, it was all in vain. Because this was the Motie Kingdom, not Daqian. The people in the Motie Kingdom didn't really believe her in the first place, and at this moment Yan Yanjie was speechless. Cheng Cheng's words have undoubtedly confirmed the fact that the Daqian Kingdom wants to take the initiative to provoke a war and assassinate King Motie.
"No meaning?" Xia Qianjie turned to look at Yan Cheng, who was bowing his head in silence, and said, "Your death is really meaningful!"
At first she didn't understand why this famous loyal minister of the Yuelun Principality would slander the Daqian Kingdom on his deathbed. But at this time, she already understood.
The Yuelun Principality is very weak and is close to the Motie Kingdom. If the Motie Kingdom wants to attack the Yuelun Principality in a rage, the Yuelun Principality will be destroyed in an instant.
But the Motie Kingdom did not attack the Yuelun Kingdom, but instead attacked the Daqian Kingdom. So from these things, it is not difficult to see that the Motie Kingdom's goal from the beginning was to attack the Daqian Kingdom.
The Yuelun Kingdom delegation led by Yan Cheng just happened to come to the Motie Kingdom at this time and became an unlucky guy who was involved. However, Yan Cheng's cleverness lies in his willingness to be such a person. Unlucky guy.
The powerful Motie Kingdom said that the Yuelun Principality's envoy was guilty, so he would plead guilty. Moreover, his guilty plea successfully helped the Motie Kingdom restore its reputation! In this case, Motie, who was not interested in attacking the Yuelun Principality, would Kingdom, naturally they will not attack Yuelun Principality!
The weak Yuelun Principality naturally has a way for the weak to survive. Xia Qianjie believes that maybe the cowardly king of the Yuelun Principality has sent people to prepare more gifts and wants to send his prince to Motie Serve as a hostage.
This kind of thing is not uncommon in history. In order to appease the anger of a powerful country, in order to protect its own country, and in order to prove that it has no rebellious heart, a weak country will always send its biological son to be close to itself. Serving as a hostage in a powerful country...
And Yan Cheng, a civil servant who was loyal to the Yuelun Principality and had many praises. He said he would never lie even if he promised a thousand pieces of gold. Finally, before his death, he told a big lie and used his lies to push the Yuelun Principality to an extremely safe position. .
Therefore, his death is not worthless, but is of great value to the Yuelun Principality!
Yelu Qilue, who was sitting on the high platform, had obviously thought of these things, so he smiled at the corner of his mouth, stretched out his hand and slowly pressed down to signal the crowd to be quiet, and then said to Yan Cheng: "Very good, seeing as you have a good attitude in pleading guilty. For your sake, I will let you live a little longer and let you watch the Daqian people die first."
Yan Cheng remained low and silent, not saying a word.
Yeluqi was a little bored. However, just when he was about to order Xia Qianjie's execution, Yan Cheng suddenly coughed violently. As he coughed violently, a large mouthful of blood spurted out from his mouth, and then Along with the blood, there was also a bloody tongue.
Yan Cheng's face turned red for a moment, and then turned from red to livid. He slowly lay on the ground and stopped breathing...
An executioner stepped forward to investigate in surprise and replied with a trembling voice: "Master Yelu! Yan Cheng is dead. He bit off his tongue and choked his lungs with his own blood, so he suffocated to death." .”
A loyal minister who was once famous in the Moon Lun Principality and claimed to never lie actually bit off his own tongue and choked to death. This incident seemed to contain some hidden meaning, but it was something that most people could not understand. metaphor...
Perhaps Xia Qianjie could understand this hidden meaning, so she looked at the body that had been left from the mouth and nose, and thought silently: "Yan Cheng was loyal to the Yuelun Principality throughout his life, but in the end he failed to be loyal to himself and did what he least wanted. He was ashamed of what he had done, which may be the reason why he wanted to lose his tongue... At the same time, his death also meant that there was no possibility that this case would be overturned, because he was the only one who could possibly prove it. Daqian is an innocent person..."
Yeluqili waved his hands expressionlessly and shouted: "The time has come for execution!"
Since Yan Cheng was dead, there was naturally no need to execute him again, and what Yelu Qiliao meant by the execution was naturally that he wanted the executioner to chop off Xia Qianjie's head.
The executioner obviously understood this meaning, so he raised the big knife in his hand without hesitation, and then chopped off Xia Qianjie's neck.
Yes, this time he did not hesitate at all, because he was already convinced that the Daqian woman in front of him was not only an assassin who killed His Majesty the King, but also a despicable villain who tried to use sweet words to destabilize people's hearts! So the executioner After this knife is applied, there will never be the slightest sense of guilt in my heart!
Yelu Qilue watched the executioner's sword about to fall, and he gradually felt a sense of relief in his heart, because he knew that although there were some twists and turns in today's affairs, it would eventually end perfectly... and more importantly, he The thing I have been most worried about has never happened. The terrible enemy who was told by the superiors that might come has never come...
However, at the moment when the executioner's sword fell, and everyone was quietly waiting for the hateful Daqian woman's head to fall, an extremely terrifying sonic boom suddenly sounded in the air.
Without any warning, a thick long sword with an ink-edged edge and a sharp blade instantly pierced the sky. With a hissing sound, it struck the executioner's long knife that was about to fall.
Click...
The broadsword directly shattered into several pieces due to the huge power of the long sword, and the long sword was inserted diagonally into the hard stone ground not far behind Xia Qianjie.
"Who...whose sword is this!"
"Who is so bold and dares to openly prevent Motie Kingdom from executing people in Yishui City!"
People were in great shock due to this sudden change. At the same time, an angry voice came from mid-air.
"I want to see who dares to kill my Daqian people today!" Qin Feng looked cold as he landed on the execution platform from the air and silently pulled out the sword stuck on the stone ground.
"Who dares to kill my Daqian?" Recalling the angry and domineering words of the young man, countless eyes fell on the young man holding the sword. Then, the shock in people's hearts gradually subsided, but a trace of fear rose. Confuse.
Because the boy is too young, and the childishness in his handsome eyebrows has not faded. It is undoubtedly difficult for such a young boy to believe that he has any powerful power.
And, if he does not have strong power, then what he has said can only be the angry words of a young man who was temporarily blinded by anger...
"Perhaps he is a fish that slipped through the net and stayed in Yishui City and has not been caught yet." People couldn't help but think this.
In fact, such a guess is reasonable. Daqian and Motie were friendly countries in the past, so the two sides naturally had many trade exchanges. As Yishui City is the capital of the Motie Kingdom, there will naturally be many merchants from Daqian in the city.
However, since the situation between the two countries became increasingly tense some time ago, all merchants of Daqian nationality in Yishui City were arrested... But in the eyes of ordinary people, the young man who rushed to the execution platform at this time, It is very likely that he slipped through the cracks of a certain Daqian Chamber of Commerce.
"It's you...Qin Feng!" Xia Qianjie said in disbelief.
Although they had been away for several months, she still recognized Qin Feng at a glance, because Qin Feng left a deep impression on her during the martial arts competition in the Fourth Academy. She still remembers that she was the one who gritted her teeth, even though she was heartbroken. Even though he was unwilling to do so, he still allowed this very talented guy to directly become the core disciple of Lingxiao Academy...
"Sorry, I only found out about your accident a few days ago, so I came too late." Qin Feng said in a deep voice, silently using his long sword to cut the ropes, bracelets and anklets tied to Xia Qianjie's body, and the one on Xia Qianjie's body was A shocking whip mark also appeared in Qin Feng's eyes at this moment, piercing into his heart, immediately making his mood even more painful.
"Why...you...came..." Xia Qianjie was still a little confused and couldn't figure out why Qin Feng came. But the situation in front of her obviously did not allow her to consider too many details, so she could only use Use the shortest possible time to consider the things that should be considered most.
"I'm here to save you." Qin Feng said softly, trying to make his voice softer, as if he was afraid of scaring the injured little flower.
However, what was unexpected was that Xia Qianjie, who had just had the rope removed from her body, slapped Qin Feng with her backhand.
Qin Feng was slightly startled, and almost instinctively reached out and grabbed Xia Qianjie's wrist, with a trace of confusion and doubt deep in his eyes.
At this time, Xia Qianjie was undoubtedly very weak and her face was a little pale, because not only had she been tortured a lot these days, but even the spiritual power in her body had been temporarily banned under the influence of drugs.
However, she was very angry at this time, and even because of her anger, her originally pale face turned blood red in an instant.
