When Yue Fei was taken to the execution ground in shackles, his expression was blank.
He had already become disillusioned with this court.
As the execution vehicle was used for the Dali Temple, the sunlight shone directly down, causing him to squint his eyes.
He was not sad, he just wanted to laugh out loud.
It's ridiculous that I was loyal to the emperor and served my country. I fought fearlessly on the battlefield time and time again just to conquer the Song Dynasty, but this is the outcome I got.
The people on the roadside have already learned about this matter through the publicity of some people.
The two sides of the road were crowded with people, all silent and with sad faces.
Some of these people migrated from the north and had heard of Yue Fei a long time ago and were grateful to him.
Even the locals were familiar with Yue Fei's name when they heard the battle reports of the great victories in the north again and again.
Today, Yue's army is famous all over the world.
Someone shouted "unjust", and a spark seemed to be inserted into the crowd, and suddenly a blazing flame burst out.
“Unfair!”
More and more people shouted in unison, and the voice spread far into the palace.
When Zhao Gou heard this, his face changed drastically: "What a bunch of unruly people!"
He did not regret it, but felt somewhat fortunate.
Yue Fei has such a reputation, he deserves to be killed!
Otherwise, in time, wouldn't the world only know Yue Fei and not the Zhao family? On the contrary, Qin Hui, who was in charge of supervising the execution, felt numb in his heart as he faced the hateful eyes of the crowd.
He cursed Zhao Gou to death in his heart.
This incompetent monarch was truly stupid. If he wanted to persecute such a meritorious official, he could have just sentenced him to death or made him "commit suicide out of fear of punishment" in prison. Why did he have to do it in public?
He had no choice but to ask Yang Cunzhong, the commander-in-chief of the palace, who was accompanying him, to keep a good eye on the people around to prevent anyone from rushing to the execution ground.
However, when Qin Hui saw that many soldiers who were maintaining order gradually looked sad, he suddenly had a bad premonition.
Yue Fei also heard the people's cries.
When he saw people trying to break through the human wall and approach him, he felt moved.
He had been disheartened, but now the blood in his chest was stirred and he suddenly felt that the past few decades of bloody fighting were not in vain.
"Yes, shouldn't I be loyal to these people?"
For a moment, the belief in his heart became clearer.
On the execution ground, the presiding judge read out the verdict on Yue Fei under tremendous pressure.
At Qin Hui's signal, the executioner approached.
"General Yue, please!" the executioner whispered.
His hand holding the knife trembled slightly.
He had killed many people with his ghost-head knife, but it was rare to see someone as good as Yue Fei.
If the court had not promised him a reward that would be enough to ensure his food and clothing for the rest of his life, he would not have wanted to get involved in this mess.
At this moment, listening to the cries of the people and seeing many people with sad faces and even crying loudly, he began to regret it.
After this blow, can I still leave Lin'an City with the money? However, the arrow is on the string and must be shot.
As the presiding judge said "behead", the executioner raised his sword.
Yue Fei was filled with grief and shouted: "The sun is bright, the sun is bright!"
The executioner didn't care about all that and chopped down with the ghost-head knife fiercely.
A cold light flashed in the air, and his ghost-head knife, which had been passed down for three generations and had chopped off countless heads, flew through the air.
Yue Fei's voice stopped abruptly.
Not only his voice, but he himself disappeared.
The executioner staggered and almost fell.
Seeing that there was nothing under the knife, he felt cold all over under the scorching sun and thought he had seen a ghost.
The presiding judge screamed and stood up, his face full of horror.
Qin Hui, who was supervising the execution, suddenly changed his expression, and his body swayed, and he actually fell off the chair.
He hurriedly climbed up, only to see the people around him cheering wildly.
"God has opened his eyes!"
"General Yue must be a god who has descended to earth, and now he has returned to heaven!"
Listening to these messy noises, Qin Hui swallowed hard.
Yue Fei disappeared before his eyes. This strange scene completely shattered his cognition.
Thinking of Yue Fei's bravery on the battlefield, an idea suddenly came to his mind.
Could this guy really be a god from heaven?
Did he frame the gods and kill them? It was all the fault of that tyrant emperor! Just when Qin Hui was unable to calm down his fear, he suddenly heard someone in the crowd shouting, "Kill these treacherous officials who murdered the loyal officials."
There were many responses.
The soldiers only symbolically blocked the crowd twice and just let the mob move towards the execution platform.
Many soldiers even turned around and looked at Qin Hui and his men viciously.
Qin Hui was horrified: "Are you all going to rebel?"
When Yang Cunzhong saw this, his expression changed drastically.
He was the commander-in-chief of the palace, in charge of the order of the execution ground.
However, it is clear that such things are beyond my control.
Seeing that many soldiers had pointed their spears at them, Yang Cunzhong's face turned grim and he drew his sword and moved towards Qin Hui.
"Prime Minister Qin, please lend me your head!"
After he finished speaking, he chopped with a knife.
“How dare you…”
As soon as Qin Hui finished speaking, he saw the scenery in front of him turned dark and a headless corpse fell to the ground, spurting blood.
The corpse looked particularly familiar, and just as he was thinking hard, his consciousness quickly faded.
Yang Cunzhong lifted up Qin Hui's head and shouted, "I have killed the traitor!"
Just as he saw several soldiers looking away following the sound, he suddenly felt a chill in his chest. It was a personal soldier who stabbed his heart with a spear.
"You evil villain, it was you who put General Yue in jail!" the guards shouted.
The entire execution ground was instantly thrown into chaos.
Ten minutes later, Yue Fei reappeared. The shackles on his body had been broken and he was wearing a set of green armor.
This was another Green Goblin suit that he bought with the fifty time-space coins he had recently collected from selling his property and borrowing some money from friends, except for the mask.
Looking at the messy scene, he was stunned.
Soon someone noticed him.
"General Yue!"
The man's voice attracted the attention of others.
The scene suddenly became quiet.
Yue Fei looked at the corpses of Qin Hui and others, and then met a series of burning gazes.
After a few seconds of silence, he bowed deeply to the crowd.
The crowd then began to speak.
Many people covered their faces and cried, and some even knelt on the ground.
"General, are you a god from heaven?" an old man asked.
Yue Fei shook his head.
"General, there is no need to be modest. We all know that you are the Wu Qu Star that God blesses the Song Dynasty, but some people are not lucky enough to enjoy it!" A middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes said in a deep voice.
"General, please leave!" someone else said.
"General, please go!"
When the urging voices came together, Yue Fei suddenly wanted to cry.
He suddenly felt that it was all worth it.
Wasn't it for these lovely people that we fought so hard to drive out the Tartars?
The emperor of the Zhao family and the other nobles in the court, are they worthy? They are just a bunch of parasites who have stolen the power of the people!
At this moment, his belief became extremely firm.
"From now on, I will only fight for China, for the people, and for all of you!"
After he finished speaking, he drove the flying skateboard and flew into the air.
