And Dongfang Qing, who was feared by foreign envoys.
The seats were arranged, and the guards said "please" twice but remained unmoved.
Instead, he walked towards Baili Feiyue on the execution platform.
As he walked over, Butler Bai, who had been following Dongfang Qing, was already feeling distressed. He couldn't wait to open the umbrella in his hand and hold it over Baili Feiyue's head to block out the scorching sun in the sky.
Baili Feiyue raised her eyebrows and gave Butler Bai a strange look.
She didn't expect that the person she helped casually was actually someone close to Dongfang Qing. However, she had never seen this old man around Dongfang Qing before.
This is not the most important thing. What is important is what does this old man's expression of heartache and excitement, as well as his respectful eyes, mean?
And Dongfang Qing, a man who seemed to have walked out of a Jiangnan ink-splashing painting, had emotions in his eyes that Baili Feiyue could not understand.
"Miss Ling San, I'm sorry, I'm late."
Baili Feiyue: “…”
That's what!
This attitude!
So, this is the method to save her that he mentioned in the prison of the Ministry of Justice?
That so-called method that she will know whether to agree or not when the time comes?
Narrowing his eyes, he said, "Master Dongfang, His Highness the Seventh Prince, although we have had some misunderstandings, we don't have any deep hatred. I really don't understand, what do you mean?"
Butler Bai, who was standing next to Dongfang Qing, was so anxious that he almost scratched his ears and cheeks, and swallowed the words in his throat.
Your Highness must have a reason for waiting until this time to come and saying such things.
He also cannot rely on the respect His Highness holds for him and act without regard for the importance of the occasion.
Dongfang Qing's lips curled slightly, "You think too much."
How could she not think too much?
This really doesn't match the perception and impression Dongfang Qing has given her.
First of all, she didn't expect him to come to the rescue.
Besides, is this saving her?
Before she dies, there will be a romantic rumor about her, making people think that she is fickle!
Under Baili Feiyue's inquiring gaze, Dongfang Qing walked towards the position arranged by Emperor Jing.
As for Butler Bai, who was following him, he followed him and tried very hard to divert his gaze away from Baili Feiyue.
Everyone present had all kinds of thoughts in their minds because of Dongfang Qing's words and attitude.
Especially those foreign envoys.
The most favored prince of Xiyue Kingdom actually seems to have a good relationship with Ling Jing?
Just as the foreign envoys were feeling uneasy, Emperor Jing spoke up, "Is the Seventh Prince here to see Ling Jing off for the last time?"
"No," Dongfang Qing raised his eyes, his dark eyes were unfathomable, "I am here to discuss the marriage between Dajing and Xiyue."
What!
Dajing and Xiyue are going to get married?
This is what they fear and worry about the most!
When the anxious foreign envoys heard this, they no longer cared about anything else. Their breath was hanging in their throats.
"Marriage?" Emperor Jing was a little puzzled. "What does the Seventh Prince mean?"
"Literally, the two countries are as friendly as Qin and Jin."
Emperor Jing smiled, "Although it is not appropriate to discuss this matter at this time and place, it is indeed a great joy. I just wonder which prince or prince of our Great Jing has your princess Jingli taken a fancy to?"
Dongfang Qing tapped the edge of the chair with his slender fingers. "It's not Jingli who is marrying in Dajing, it's your country's woman who is marrying in Xiyue."
When the foreign envoys heard this, they relaxed a little.
Does this mean that the Xiyue Kingdom also has bad intentions?
Emperor Jing frowned slightly and lied with his eyes wide open, pretending that he didn't know about Princess Mo Li. "The Seventh Prince has been in my Dajing for a long time, but he has never shown any intention of asking to marry any princess or noble lady of my Dajing. I wonder which one the Seventh Prince wants to marry now."
"General's Mansion, Ling Jing."
"Hiss~"!
There was a very noticeable inhalation of surprise.
The expression on Emperor Jing's face had completely changed at this moment. "Seventh Prince, this joke is not funny at all. Putting Ling Jing's past aside, she is now a criminal who is about to be beheaded!"
Dongfang Qing's thin lips showed a tiny arc, "It would be more beneficial to your country if Ling Jing was married to Xiyue alive than if she was killed, isn't it?"
"I don't understand what the Seventh Prince is saying."
Dongfang Qing smiled slightly but said nothing more.
He didn't say much, and Baili Feiyue spit in her heart.
Dongfang Qing is really cunning.
As expected, a court official immediately gave the Emperor a way out, "Your Majesty, I think that although Ling Jing committed a serious crime that is unforgivable, if she marries to Xiyue, it will make the two countries more friendly. It can be considered a great achievement and can atone for her sins."
Someone immediately agreed.
Not only did they cooperate, but some of the people who had previously shouted for war and killing also began to murmur.
"Indeed, Ling Jing is dead, and she is a laughing stock for these foreign envoys. If she were to marry to Xiyue Country, with Xiyue Country's strength, once the marriage with Dajing is made, there is no need to intervene in the siege of the southern border, and they would not dare to cross the line easily..."
"But for someone like Ling Jing, it's hard to get rid of the hatred in my heart unless she dies!"
"You're out of your mind. If we don't want a marriage, people like her must be killed. If we want a marriage, then of course let her go!"
When the Princesses of Ling who were in the teahouses on the street saw this, they were filled with hatred.
Ling Jing, this bitch, why is there always someone to help her every time she is in a life-and-death situation!
Why!
How could a figure like the Seventh Prince of Xiyue Kingdom be interested in a second-hand junky thing like Ling Jing?
Is God blind, or is the Seventh Prince of Xiyue Kingdom blind?
The court officials were still continuing, and the foreign envoys occasionally made a sarcastic remark, but deep down they were afraid that they would really get married.
Of course, in addition to those who were wondering whether the marriage would be harmonious or not, there were also those who were wondering why Dongfang Qing specifically sought out Baili Feiyue.
"I have vaguely heard that Ling Jing and the prince of Xiyue Kingdom have had an affair before. Seeing it today, it seems that it is not completely groundless."
"What's so strange about that? Her mother's identity was revealed these days. Don't you know that she is a prostitute who came from a brothel. Naturally, her daughter will be as unruly as she is...ah!"
But I didn't expect that even though many unpleasant things had been said before, nothing happened.
However, before the man could finish his words, he covered his mouth and let out a scream.
Blood immediately gushed out from between his fingers.
Not to mention others, even Butler Bai beside Dongfang Qing was so shocked by this scene that he forgot to breathe.
However, he also wanted to tear the person who spoke foul language into pieces!
Baili Feiyue's gaze, which had originally seemed to be aloof from the matter, was now chillingly cold.
"Don't challenge my bottom line. Before I die, I don't mind dragging a few more people down with me."
The man was still howling miserably, and the people around him almost simultaneously took several steps back, trembling.
I covered my neck and throat because I was close to the person who spoke before me.
I was so frightened that I almost lost my body and soul.
This is close.
For those who are far away.
This is really a surprise.
This was something many people present had not expected.
The most terrifying thing is that with so many guards present, no one saw how she did it!
Emperor Jing's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and he was furious like thunder!
"Ling Jing!"
He turned to the guards and said, "Capture her for me!"
"You never change despite repeated admonitions! You are so bold and cruel even when facing death! Capture you! At any cost!"
At all costs!
This is a death order!
With a loud bang, Baili Feiyue was surrounded by a large group of absolutely expert guards.
The atmosphere at the execution ground, which had been somewhat relaxed due to Dongfang Qing's arrival and the mention of marriage, became tense again.
On the verge of happening!
