Twenty-six
Ling Junyan was taken to the execution ground by the crowd without even being tried. When the people heard the news, they rushed in just to catch a glimpse of the monster.
The rotten vegetable leaves were already prepared, but they were stopped by the police a hundred meters away. They couldn't even see what they looked like, let alone throw them over.
"Look at his figure, he is a young man." asked an old lady carrying a vegetable basket.
"Monsters don't age, so it's normal for them to look young. Don't worry about it, just watch."
At this moment, Ling Junyan was tied to a pillar, surrounded by a group of officials. He glanced at them indifferently, as if waiting for someone.
"You bold monster! How dare you bring disaster upon the people? Your crime is unforgivable. This county will execute you on the spot today!"
The county magistrate sat opposite him and gave an impassioned speech, but Ling Junyan didn't want to pay any attention to him.
Seeing that he was not afraid at all, even though he was dragged here to take the blame, the county magistrate felt annoyed.
"You are indeed a demon. You are not afraid of execution, but things are different now. You are bound with demon-binding chains specially requested by this county. I guarantee that you will not be able to escape."
This county magistrate really put on a full show, even bringing out the demon-binding chains.
But Ling Junyan remained silent.
The county magistrate gritted his teeth and said, "Execute!"
"etc."
A deep voice sounded, Ling Junyan looked in the direction of the voice and thought to himself: It's finally here.
When the county magistrate saw the newcomer, he instantly stood up, took a few steps forward to greet him, and said respectfully, "Why are you here, Your Excellency the Prefect?"
The man known as the prefect glanced in Ling Junyan's direction and said, "Of course, I'm here to see if the so-called monster really has three heads and six arms."
After saying that, he walked straight over. The county magistrate raised his hand, but it was difficult to stop him.
Ling Junyan watched the man getting closer and closer. Upon closer inspection, he saw that the man had thin eyebrows, a pair of uneven eyes, and a mole near his mouth that was hard to ignore.
Ling Junyan recalled carefully and found that he was indeed somewhat similar to the man in the court, so he roughly knew the answer in his heart.
The prefect stopped in front of Ling Junyan. He was half a head shorter than Ling Junyan, but very arrogant. He looked at him with a scrutinizing attitude, and the difference in the size of his eyes became more obvious.
"It seems that monsters are not that great after all. I really thought I was invulnerable, but now I've been captured."
He smiled, and at this time Ling Junyan also looked him up and down, with a slight curl of his lips. That contemptuous look finally irritated the prefect.
But before he could say anything, Ling Junyan spoke first, "Are you finally willing to come out?"
Upon hearing this, the governor swallowed back what he was about to say and returned to his arrogant look.
"Hearing this, you know me?" The governor was somewhat surprised.
But he was slapped in the face the next second.
"That's not the case. He was just a bastard who was recognized because of his slight resemblance. You are not worthy of knowing him."
"you!"
"Is that county magistrate also your man?" Ling Junyan interrupted him again.
As a result, the prefect was led astray again, "Just him? He's just an idiot, how can he be on the same boat with me?"
"Then I'm curious about who's on your ship."
"Guess what, but does this matter to you now?"
"Then, who do you plan to make emperor next?" Ling Junyan just kept asking regardless of his answer.
The prefect raised an eyebrow, not knowing what he was trying to do, "Guess."
Ling Junyan stared at him with scrutiny, and said slowly and quietly, "Eleventh Master?"
The prefect smiled crookedly.
At this time, a certain palace.
"A-choo!"
The person lying in the rocking chair rubbed his nose and said, "It's not cold."
Then he stretched out his hand and felt it again, "No wind."
Then he glanced around and said, "There's no cat...why is it sneezing? Someone, come!"
At this time, a maid came up to him, "Prince."
"Hurry up and find me a doctor from the palace. I haven't had enough of my good life yet, and I can't let anything happen to my health."
"Yes." The maid retreated.
And this man who has everything provided for him is the legendary Eleventh Prince, the only brother left in the capital by Ling Junyan.
After giving his instructions, Lao Shiyi lay back down. It was a beautiful day and it felt so comfortable to bask in the sun. After a while, he suddenly felt as if the sun was blocked.
As soon as I opened my eyes, I said: !!!
In broad daylight! The assassin came flying over, sword in hand.
"Ahhh!"
Old Eleven was so frightened that he fell to the ground instantly. Seeing the assassin was about to reach him, his body froze in mid-air and fell in an arc, and happened to fall in front of Eleven. Damn it.
Before he could react, he suddenly heard some noise. He looked up and saw many crossbow arrows coming out from all directions. He was stunned.
Then a figure teleported in front of him, took out a piece of fine cloth that he had gotten from somewhere, and then he started spinning around, and all the crossbow arrows fell to the ground.
With smooth movements, he threw the cloth aside, turned around and swung out countless darts. Some of the men in black lurking on the roof were knocked down, while others fled in panic when they saw that they could not succeed.
For a moment, the surroundings became much quieter.
The man took a breath and turned his head to look, "Your Majesty..."
Hey? Where are the people?
"I... I can't see. What is that? Take it away!"
The cloth was really big, it wrapped around Old Eleven completely. From the outside, you could see how hard the person inside was trying to break free.
The man panicked and quickly rescued Old Eleven from the cloth.
After regaining his sight, Lao Shiyi instantly collapsed to the ground.
The man said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Your Highness. I didn't mean to do that."
Old Eleven glanced up at him in a messy manner, "Hey, I remember your name is Yun Shi, right?"
"yes."
The Eleventh Old Man nodded and held out a hand for him to help him up. After being helped up, he looked at him and said jokingly, "If you weren't here, I would have thought that the Emperor wanted to kill me."
Yun Shi lowered his head slightly: "Your Highness, please be careful with your words."
The Eleventh Elder waved his hands and said, "Oh, I was just joking with you. My brother the Emperor won't blame me."
After saying that, he looked at the corpse on the ground. He hadn't recovered yet, and now the aftereffects were coming on, and his stomach was churning.
"vomit…"
"Your Majesty!"
…
On the execution ground, the prefect chuckled and said, "That's hard to say."
Ling Junyan smiled calmly. At this moment, he had asked everything he wanted to know.
"If I were you, I would hide myself well and never reveal myself until the last moment."
Listening to his words, the prefect suddenly felt uneasy, and this uneasiness made him feel panic.
He was actually afraid. At this moment when everything was about to be finalized, he was actually afraid.
So he began to compete secretly with himself deep in his heart, while appearing neither humble nor arrogant on the surface, but after a while, he could no longer pretend.
He raised his hand and grabbed Ling Junyan's neck.
The county magistrate who was standing far away was shocked when he saw this. He was far away and didn't know what they were talking about. He didn't expect the prefect to be so excited.
Over there, the prefect glared at Ling Junyan and said fiercely, "My Lord, if I were you, I would not anger someone who could threaten my life."
Although the feeling of suffocation made Ling Junyan very uncomfortable, he still showed disdain, which made the prefect even more forceful. At this moment, he really wanted to kill this arrogant emperor directly.
A sly smile gradually appeared on his face, but the next second...
"Bang!"
Ling Junyan felt the force on his neck suddenly disappear, then he coughed violently a few times and then looked up.
The prefect's expression was frozen, with a large bloody hole bursting out between his eyebrows. At the same time, his waist was thrust forward, and a crossbow arrow pierced his body from behind.
The two injuries occurred almost simultaneously.
Ling Junyan stared at the bloody hole until the prefect fell to his knees and lost his life.
The loud noise scared the crowd away. No one had ever heard such a sound before, and the unfamiliarity made it even more terrifying. The county magistrate was torn between wanting to turn left to appease the people and wanting to turn right to escape. He remained in his position.
Then, a lot of people suddenly rushed into the execution ground. It was obvious that it was arranged by Ling Junyan.
At this moment, Ling Junyan turned his head and saw Yun Qi standing in the chaotic crowd, holding up the "truth" that he had not had time to put down.
Ling Junyan's pupils shrank slightly. He wanted to call out his name, but he couldn't.
Yunqi only looked at him for a second before his hands began to tremble.
It's not for any other reason, I just can't control it.
Something is wrong, very wrong!
Then, the "truth" slipped out of his hand, turned into powder and disappeared before it even hit the ground.
Yun Qi immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.
I knocked, and there is no mention of cheating being able to backfire...
He looked towards Ling Junyan with great effort. The other party had been rescued by his men and was coming this way. In any case, he was finally relieved.
However, this made him understand: If you are not lucky, don't try to cheat!
Then, he fell to the ground.
The speed was so fast that Bai Yi, who was fighting against the officers with an iron shovel, didn't have time to react.
When he noticed it, the person had already been carried away by Ling Junyan.
