In a teahouse on the street, Liu Yiping stood at the window and looked at the commotion below with a mocking look on his face.
He noticed Zhou Yu struggling with the police, and a few glimmers of light flashed in his triangular eyes.
"That young lady, is she Liang Xiping's wife?"
The subordinate looked in the direction Liu Yishan pointed and nodded: "Yes, Master."
Liu Yishan licked his lips and said, "Tsk tsk, I didn't expect that Liang Xiping has such a beautiful wife."
Having been with Liu Yishan for many years, how could his subordinates not know what he was thinking now?
He carefully reminded him, "Young Master, Lord Liu told you a few days ago to keep a low profile recently... The whole city knows about what happened before."
You can tell by the reaction of these people when Liang Xiping and others were about to be executed today.
If it weren't for Lord Liu's protection, how could this matter have been suppressed so smoothly?
Liu Yishan responded absentmindedly, but didn't care much.
His uncle is the Jingzhao Yin, who dares to touch him?
Aren't Liang Xiping and Ma Youjiang, two people who overestimated their own abilities, about to lose their lives now?
Liu Yishan stared at Zhou Yu and smiled evilly. When that girl became a widow, he would be able to play with her as much as he wanted.
Fearing the intimidation of the officers and soldiers, the people dared not make trouble anymore.
The dozen or so people in mourning were taken under control, and the prison van continued to head towards the vegetable market.
The sun in late autumn is dazzling and slightly cool.
There was constant crying at the execution ground, and some people also wiped their tears silently.
Liang Xiping was forced to kneel on the execution platform, his red and sorrowful eyes staring at his wife who was crying bitterly not far away.
The executioner glanced at the sky impatiently. It was still a little before noon, but he was too lazy to wait any longer.
Killing early or late is still killing, what’s the difference?
He drew his command arrow and threw it down: "The time has come, execute!"
Zhou Yu cried so hard that she fainted.
Liang Xiping, who had been looking at her, had trembling lips and a tear fell.
I heard Ma Youjiang say, "Brother Liang, I have no regrets as long as you accompany me on the road to the underworld."
Liang Xiping turned to look at him, smiled with tears in his eyes and said, "I only regret that I met Brother Ma too late. I hope we can still be brothers in the next life!"
Two executioners came over with knives in hand and pulled out the wooden signs behind them.
Liang Xiping took a last reluctant look at his wife and slowly closed his eyes.
Raising the knife, the sharp blade reflected the dazzling sunlight.
The blade falls——
"call out!"
Two streaks of light flew past.
Liang Xiping, who was waiting to die with his eyes closed, suddenly heard the sound of ping-pong. People outside the field saw the executioner suddenly hugging his arms, throwing away the knife and screaming in pain.
He opened his eyes in confusion and was shocked to see that the executioner's wrist was visibly swollen and soon became like a steamed bun.
"The Emperor has ordered that there are still doubts in Liang Xiping's case. The execution is suspended and he is temporarily detained in the Heavenly Prison awaiting trial!"
As a loud and majestic voice resounded throughout the venue, two men dressed in dark brocade robes appeared on horseback at the execution ground.
Liang and Ma were stunned when they heard this, and then looked at each other in surprise.
The emperor actually sent people to rescue them. Could it be that their affairs have already reached the emperor?
The executioner looked worried, but he saw the imperial tokens in the hands of the two men.
The emperor's order?
but……
Thinking of Lord Liu's instructions, he said, "The evidence against these two people for murder is solid, and there is no doubt about this case.
You two can go back and report to the Emperor that this was a case personally tried by Jingzhao Yin Liu, and there can be no mistakes."
Wan Chao sneered. He wanted to use Liu He to intimidate him?
His eyes were cold and stern: "You dare to question the order of the emperor?"
At the execution ground, a group of Western Factory men dressed in flying fish uniforms suddenly emerged and surrounded the executioner and others.
Each of them had a blank expression on their face, revealing a cold murderous aura.
It seemed that if they dared to stop them again, they would be beheaded in the next second.
The executioner swallowed and fell silent.
Wan Chao directly ordered people to take Liang Xiping and the other two away.
In less than half an hour, Wan Chao came back to report.
"Your Majesty, Liang Xiping and the other two have been rescued and sent to the West Factory prison."
Their charges have not been cleared yet, so they cannot be released.
Zhao Xin nodded in satisfaction and closed the half-read book.
"That's good, I'll go meet them."
Liang Xiping is a character who turns the plot around, so Zhao Xin certainly values him.
In the Western Factory prison cell, Liang Xiping and the other two were still a little dazed when they kowtowed to the emperor.
In just one hour, they who were originally going to be beheaded not only survived, but also saw the holy face with their own eyes.
"My two beloved ministers, please stand up." Zhao Xin said gently, "I learned about your affairs from Kou Huairen.
Since you have been wronged, I will definitely clear your name."
The two men came back to their senses, and the emperor's words made them excited.
The emperor had just ascended the throne. Previously, we only knew that he did not care about state affairs and allowed the Cui family's treacherous clique to do evil.
But after this battle, they have changed their views on the emperor.
Cui Cen's confidant, Jingzhao Yin Liu He, was able to control everything in the capital, and he didn't care at all even when the people were angry.
How could the Emperor not know this? I'm afraid he just can't deal with them right now.
But the emperor is willing to rescue them now, which means he must care about them.
Ma Youjiang said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for trusting us.
Your Majesty, I have found out some information before that Liu Yishan and his father have been selling illegal salt for profit.
He also helped Liu He buy and sell official positions to make money. Liu Yishan had an account book at home that recorded the names of people who bribed him.
Before I could find the account book, Liu He framed me and put me in jail."
When Zhao Xin heard this, he was pleasantly surprised. This news came at the right time.
He instructed Wan Chao:
"You must immediately take people to Liu Yishan's residence and arrest him for intentional homicide and framing an imperial official.
Search the Liu Mansion and find the account book!"
There is solid evidence that Liu Yishan killed several people, so there is absolutely no problem in arresting him on this basis.
"I obey the decree!"
Seeing the emperor so decisive and straightforward, the two felt comforted and were ready to submit.
Through their experiences these days, they have seen the darkness of officialdom.
The Cui family had absolute power, and even under the emperor's feet, Liu He dared to be so presumptuous.
But after meeting His Majesty and talking with him, I found that he was a wise monarch.
They suddenly felt hope for the future of the Qin State.
Zhao Xin used his eyes to judge people and saw that the loyalty of Liang Xiping and the other man was 70.
But I didn’t hear any notification sound indicating that the plot reversal was successful. Perhaps it will only be considered successful after both of them are acquitted?
But this is only a matter of time, anyway the purpose of this trip has been achieved.
Knowing that the execution of Liang Xiping and the other man was suddenly interrupted, Liu Yishan was confused and annoyed. He returned home and asked his father to find his uncle to quickly deal with the two troublesome guys.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he returned home, a group of Western Factory soldiers broke in.
Seeing this, Liu Yishan glared and shouted angrily: "How dare you trespass into the Liu Mansion?!"
Wan Chao coldly ordered: "Capture Liu Yishan!"
