King Kang said with an unpleasant expression: "Your Majesty, Zhao Hao is not an ambitious person at all."
"If he hadn't become the prince consort, and if we hadn't reached a critical moment before the big move, with that kid's character, how could he have come out and done so many things?"
"Moreover, what he has done for the country is beyond what many people combined can do, and this is also well known."
"If you really want to execute him, it will make the heroes feel disheartened!"
"Don't you care about the impact at all?"
Jiang Wan'er shouted sternly: "I can't care about that anymore!"
"Uncle, Zhao Hao himself may not have any great ambitions right now."
"But, can the emperor uncle guarantee that he will always be like this?"
"Also, now that he's been targeted, even if he doesn't want to, what if someone forces him?"
"Forcing him to harm Dagan, who can stop him at that time?"
"Why not take this opportunity to solve this problem once and for all!"
"Now, what I lack is time. As long as I have enough time, I can sweep across all the countries and unify the nine provinces in one fell swoop!"
"When that time comes, I will be the only one who can be compared to others!"
"Uncle, isn't it worth it for me to do this for this goal?"
King Kang's expression was still grim, but he stopped talking.
He knew that no matter what he said, he could not change Jiang Waner's mind.
King Kang sighed, bowed, turned and walked out of the Pepper Room.
…
Zhao Wenxiang returned home and went to the study alone.
The whole person slumped in the chair.
He felt mixed emotions.
He couldn't believe that his son would really go this far.
Is this what it means to be too successful and thus threaten the ruler?
Is this what it means when the birds are all gone, the good bows are put away; when the cunning rabbit is dead, the running dog is cooked?
He really seemed to have aged dozens of years in an instant.
I have lost all my energy and spirit.
After a long time, he put on his robe and walked out of the mansion.
However, just as he reached the door, he was stopped by two guards who suddenly appeared.
"Master Zhao, His Majesty has ordered you to stay in the palace for three days."
Zhao Wenxiang stopped and looked straight at the two of them.
After a long time, he exhaled, turned around and walked back.
…
Sky prison.
Zhao Hao and dozens of his men were detained.
It’s still the familiar cell, and the same familiar smell.
Zhao Hao sat on the wet straw mat and gave a helpless smile.
It's really fate that plays tricks on us.
When I came to this world, I was in this heavenly prison.
Now when I am about to leave this world, I am still in the Heavenly Prison.
Could it be that this is also a kind of fate?
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
Zhao Hao and his guards were all escorted by a team of soldiers from the Heavenly Prison to the South Vegetable Market in the imperial capital.
When they arrived, Caishikou was already filled with people watching the fun.
Noon, the first quarter.
On the execution platform, Zhao Hao was alone, kneeling at the front with a sign stuck behind him.
It read: Collaboration with foreign countries will be punished by death, eight words.
Behind him were dozens of guards.
Zhao Hao turned around with difficulty, looked at everyone, took a deep breath, and said, "Brothers, Zhao Hao is sorry for everyone!"
"If there is an afterlife, we will be brothers again!"
One of the men said in a muffled voice: "Sir, let's forget about being brothers in the next life. We don't want to go through this again in the next life!"
Upon hearing this, everyone burst into laughter even though they were on the execution platform.
It seemed that he did not take the impending capital punishment seriously at all.
Zhao Hao took a breath again and said, "Brothers, it is Zhao Hao who is sorry for you..."
Before Zhao Hao could finish, the man said, "Sir, please don't say that. We followed you for money. We are giving you our lives!"
"Brothers, be prepared!"
Another person also said quickly: "Yes, sir, how you treat us, we brothers know it in our hearts. It's just one life. After 18 years, we will be heroes again!"
Upon hearing this, everyone expressed their opinions.
Seeing this, Zhao Hao's eyes turned red and he quickly turned his head away.
Noon, 2:30.
The crowd was suddenly separated, and Jiang Wan'er's carriage slowly drove over.
Zhao Hao's eyes suddenly narrowed and he also looked towards the imperial carriage.
He didn't expect that Jiang Wan'er would come in person.
Jiang Wan'er walked to the place where the execution was taking place and looked down at Zhao Hao.
Everyone present knelt on the ground.
Jiang Wan'er put her hands behind her back, her eyes fell on Zhao Hao, and she said in a deep voice: "Zhao Hao, you are colluding with foreign countries and colluding with Xie Daoxun, the prime minister of Wu."
"Today, I will execute you for betraying me. Are you convinced?"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Hao sneered and slowly stood up.
He took a deep breath and answered loudly: "Jiang Wan'er, it's already this time, why bother talking nonsense?"
"I ask myself, have I done my best for the court and for you?"
"At the beginning, Mubei City was attacked by the barbarian army so fiercely that the city was almost destroyed."
"It was me who invented the thunder bomb and helped the imperial court to reverse the situation. Not only did I successfully defend Mubei City, but I also completely crippled the barbarian army during the counterattack, causing great damage to the barbarian army."
"Afterwards, a once-in-a-century snowstorm hit the two northern states. It was me who persuaded those wealthy families to donate generously, helping them get through the crisis."
