Chapter 5 The Lady of the Marquis
Song Bing didn't know why he let Ye San (Ye Chuchu) get close to him.
He knew that no matter what he said now, the emperor wouldn't believe him.
Given how intimately he rode back on the same horse as Ye San (Ye Chuchu), no one would believe they weren't close.
Words can be deadly; Ye San's words meant that she was definitely not going to survive.
After all, if she were alive, more and more people would follow her example.
The Emperor will not allow such a thing to happen.
Imperial power is inviolable...
It doesn't matter that Ye San (Ye Chuchu) is dead, but he has just won a battle and has a bright future ahead of him, but she has implicated him.
One wrong step leads to another.
If only he hadn't saved Ye San and taken her back to the capital, none of this would have happened.
Ye Chuchu is still unaware of the extent of the harm caused by her words.
She thought that by associating herself with Song Bing, the Emperor would spare them because of Song Bing's recent military achievements...
Song Bing wasn't the only one who won the battle and made contributions; there were others as well.
The emperor could not spare Song Bing just because he won a battle. Otherwise, if others won battles and made contributions in the future, they would also disregard the imperial authority, which would be terrible.
Finally, the emperor ordered the execution of Song Bing and Ye Chuchu.
Song Bing was already mentally prepared and was not surprised by the emperor's actions.
However, Ye Chuchu was shocked.
Ye Chuchu looked at the emperor above in disbelief and shouted, "General Song won a great victory and made great contributions. How can Your Majesty kill him?"
Can the emperor just kill a general who has won a battle and made great military achievements? Isn't it usually possible to exchange military merits for one's life?
Pei An and Luo Xi, who were watching the drama unfold, were speechless.
Huh? Why not?
Even if Song Bing had made military achievements, he still could not disregard the imperial power.
Equality for all? It would be strange if the Emperor let them off the hook.
Also, is Ye Chuchu just throwing caution to the wind? Does she think she's going to die anyway, so she dares to speak to the Emperor in that tone?
She's probably going to die a horrible death.
Everyone: "........."
Why? Because of what she said.
Wasn't General Song implicated because of that one sentence she said?
How dare you say that everyone is equal? Isn't that just courting death?
Song Bing: !!!
He stared at Ye Chuchu with a cold gaze.
He was sentenced to death because of her...
He felt that he must have a grudge against Ye Chuchu.
Otherwise, how could she say that everyone is equal in front of so many people?
She definitely wanted to drag him down with her.
He was stupid to give her that opportunity.
The emperor's eyes grew cold, filled with murderous intent.
Ye Chuchu's behavior clearly shows that she truly believes in equality for all.
Also, what was her tone of voice? Was she questioning him?
How dare she, a commoner?
It seems she doesn't take him, the emperor, seriously at all.
The emperor had no intention of wasting words with Ye Chuchu.
He felt that Ye Chuchu talked too much, and he didn't want to listen to what she said, so he had someone cut out Ye Chuchu's tongue so that she couldn't speak.
Finally, he ordered her to be torn to pieces.
As for Song Bing, he was beheaded and died...
