In the autumn of the fifteenth year of Yuanqing, as soon as the white dew fell, the cool breeze came.
There was a crowd of people outside the Meridian Gate in the capital. They all stretched their necks to stare at the guillotine and discussed something.
"What crime did Prince Chen commit? Why were hundreds of people executed for no reason?"
"I heard that Prince Chen wanted to rebel, but was suppressed by the Crown Prince."
"Alas, he doesn't even cherish this immense wealth and instead attempts to usurp the throne. He truly deserves death."
"Yes, it's a pity that there are so many old and young people in this mansion."
“…”
Xu Wanyan, lying on the wood, listened to all kinds of slander against Prince Chen's Mansion and cried for help in despair.
However, her mouth was stuffed, her hands were tied, and she could only kneel on the guillotine and whimper weakly.
A line of tears rolled down from the corner of her eyes, as if she was unwilling to accept her fate.
Xu Wanyan didn't understand why her life was so miserable. Since she was a child, her mother had died and her father had no love for her. She only moved out of the side courtyard after she reached the age of 15.
For the sake of her sister, she married the notorious Prince Chen, Xiao Jingming.
There was not a day that she didn't worry about being killed by Xiao Jingming. Now, before she even waited for Xiao Jingming to come back, she was going to be implicated and beheaded?
She couldn't die, she was innocent.
"The Crown Princess is here, the Crown Princess is here."
There were footsteps in the distance, and the people under the guillotine consciously made way.
At this moment, a beautiful woman walked out of the sedan chair. She was wearing a hairpin with a pattern of "Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix" on her head and a long skirt embroidered with a bright red phoenix.
Looking closely, she was somewhat similar to Princess Chen on the guillotine.
Yes, the Crown Princess and Princess Chen are both daughters of the Xu family, but one will be in a high position in the future, while the other will soon die.
"Your Highness pays homage to the Crown Princess. May Your Highness live a thousand years, a thousand years, a thousand thousand years!"
"I pay my respects to the Crown Princess. May your Majesty live a thousand years, a thousand years, a thousand thousand years."
Xu Wanqing looked at all this with pride. She had finally become the Crown Princess admired by everyone.
And her sister Xu Wanyan not only had to marry Prince Chen for her, but also had to be wiped out by her.
Xu Wanyan struggled violently, tears of excitement flowing from her eyes. Her sister is here, her sister is here to save her.
Xu Wanqing looked at her miserable appearance and raised the corner of her mouth, "I want to talk to her."
"yes!"
The executioner took the rag from Xu Wanyan's mouth and quickly stepped aside.
"Sister, please save me. I didn't commit treason."
Xu Wanyan seemed to have seen a savior and begged desperately.
"younger sister"
Xu Wanqing squatted down, approached her, and said with regret: "Sister, it's not that I don't want to save you, but..."
"And what?" Xu Wanyan was a little confused.
Xu Wanqing smiled, pinched Xu Wanyan's chin, leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Because I am the one who sent you to your death."
"What?"
Xu Wanyan widened her eyes, unable to believe what she heard.
"No, it's impossible, sister, how could you..."
Xu Wanyan couldn't believe it. Her sister had been so nice to her ever since she took her out of the side hospital.
"Don't believe it?"
Xu Wanqing looked him up and down mockingly, then said contemptuously, "Now, you are about to die, and I don't need to hide it from you. Prince Chen didn't rebel, but he blocked the prince's way. And you blocked my way, so you can only die."
"Xu Wanqing, you are so vicious. When have I ever offended you that you want to hurt me like this?"
Xu Wanyan violently shook off Xu Wanqing's hand and roared with red eyes.
Xu Wanqing was not angry. "You didn't offend me, but your mother's dowry is too tempting. Do you know? If it weren't for your mother's dowry, I wouldn't be able to become the Crown Princess. Speaking of this, I have to thank you."
"My mother's dowry?"
Xu Wanyan murmured to herself, what does this have to do with my mother's dowry? Didn't she already give the dowry to her sister?
"Huh! The Su family is so generous that they actually gave such an important thing to their daughter as a dowry. Unfortunately, my father only has my mother in his heart, and he told my mother the secret."
Crown Prince Xiao Muchan said that Su Feng's dowry was the key to his ascension to the throne, so she could only kill anyone who stood in her way.
"Also, I arranged for you to be bullied and ridiculed before, and it was also my plan to marry Prince Chen. Originally, I should have married him, but I knew he was a murderer and the Crown Prince wouldn't tolerate him, so I coaxed you into going."
"you!"
Xu Wanyan stared at Xu Wanqing with red eyes. She was really blind. All these years, she had always treated her as her own sister. She never expected that her miserable life was caused by her.
"You never considered me a...sister?"
"Sister? You don't deserve it. If I didn't think you were useful, I would have drowned you when you were born. Now, you have died a worthy death. With more than a hundred people from Prince Chen's Mansion accompanying you, you didn't suffer any loss. Go and reunite with your short-lived mother."
"Bitch, bitch, you will die!"
"Hate me, don't you? Unfortunately, you have no chance. After today, there will no longer be Prince Chen's Palace, nor will there be a Princess Chen in this world. By the way, I also heard that Prince Chen has never touched you. Is this true? Hahahaha"
Xu Wanqing's unbridled laughter made Xu Wanyan completely lose her mind and she directly hit her head.
"Come and protect me, come and protect me!"
"ah……"
Amidst the chaos, Xu Wanqing was knocked off the guillotine.
Xu Wanyan was once again pressed hard on the guillotine. She clenched her teeth and didn't even notice the blood in her mouth.
If, if it happens again, she will definitely take revenge on Xu Wanqing and make her taste all the suffering she has endured in this life.
When Xu Wanqing stood in the distance with messy hair and torn clothes.
Xu Wanyan stared at her with the most hatred in her life, wishing she could tear her into pieces.
"Lingchi, Lingchi, cut Xu Wanyan into pieces! Cut her into pieces!"
Xu Wanqing no longer cared about her image at this moment. She pointed at Xu Wanyan with trembling hands, and every word she said was heart-wrenching.
"Yes, I obey your command!"
The scene just now was so thrilling that the Inquisitor was frightened to death.
Now, whatever the Crown Princess says is what she will be cut into pieces...
"Someone, bring the torture instruments!"
The onlookers looked at the shining knives flashing with cold light and couldn't help but step back.
It was too cruel, but they didn't dare to say it.
"Execution!"
When the knife cut through Xu Wanyan's flesh, she finally came back to her senses from her recent anger, and the piercing pain made her face distorted.
"Xu Wanqing, you will not die well!"
"Xu Wanqing, you will get your comeuppance sooner or later."
"Xu Wanqing, even if I become a ghost, I won't let you go!"
“…”
"Hurry, move faster."
The judge looked at Xu Wanqing's face and urged her in a low voice. If she continued to curse like this, it would be difficult for him to explain to the emperor and the prince.
"Hahaha, one thousand eight hundred and eighty-eight knives, Xu Wanyan, didn't you say you wouldn't let me go even if you became a ghost? But, I'm still alive and well, and I'll be the mother of the country in the future. And you, you're just a lonely ghost."
"Find a mass grave and throw it away to feed the dogs."
"yes!"
