Chapter 158 Even the late emperor couldn't save you



The light word "kill" shocked everyone present!

Fang Zhengyi also felt that this was a bit too much. What was going on? Why did he kill people just like that? Just because he didn't love his people like his own children? This is so fucking ridiculous!

Even the experienced and prudent ministers were horrified.

Although Yan Guoan went a bit too far, the most he could do is to be reprimanded and demoted. Even if the most severe punishment is to demote him to a commoner, it would not be a death sentence!

However, after the ministers exchanged glances, no one spoke.

His Majesty was obviously completely disappointed and furious with Yan Guoan at this time.

A horse emperor emerged from a sea of ​​blood and corpses, killing countless people.

However, Emperor Jing was kind and rarely committed murder after unifying the country.

Perhaps because he was merciful for too long, many people have forgotten what kind of emperor Jingdi was.

Killing a mere Yan Guoan is really nothing to His Majesty...

Guo Tianyang waved his hand, and the factory guards on both sides who had been prepared stepped forward and grabbed Yan Guoan's arms.

Yan Guoan felt like he was struck by lightning, his mind went blank and he hadn't reacted to what was happening.

When he felt a sharp pain in his knees and knelt on the ground, he finally reacted. His face turned pale and he was shaking like a sieve. He looked at Emperor Jing in fear and said, "Why did you capture me... Why did you capture me... Your Majesty! What did I... do wrong?"

Emperor Jing looked at him coldly, then turned silently and looked at the plaque above the lobby.

The factory guards had already twisted his arms behind his back and were dragging him out.

Yan Guoan was so frightened that his soul left his body. He shouted, "Your Majesty! How can you kill a minister without authorization? How can you kill me without a judicial trial? I refuse to accept it! I refuse to accept it!"

Emperor Jing did not take any action.

Yan Guoan's eyes were full of bloodshot. He no longer cared about the severe pain in his arms. He wanted to fight to the death and roared, "Doctors cannot be punished! Your Majesty cannot kill me!"

"The whole nation is in chaos because of the wrongful killing of a minister. People are losing their loyalty!! Your Majesty, please think twice!!"

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty has a certificate of immunity from death granted by the late Emperor!!"

After hearing this, Emperor Jing suddenly took action.

He turned slowly and looked at Yan Guoan.

Everyone also breathed a sigh of relief for him, because he had a certificate of immunity from death, so it seemed that he would not die.

Your Majesty should also know that this action seems to be intentional.

"Wasn't the Iron Certificate of Immunity from Death bestowed upon your father by the late Emperor?"

When they heard Emperor Jing speak, the factory guards who were pulling Yan Guoan stopped.

Yan Guoan knelt down with disheveled hair as if he had been pardoned and kowtowed repeatedly.

Soon there were bloodstains on the ground.

He explained like a madman: "Yes! Yes! The certificate of immunity from death granted to my father by the late emperor?"

Emperor Jing sneered: "That was given to your father, how can you use it?"

The severe pain in his arms began to bite back, and Yan Guoan closed his eyes in pain.

How could this happen! How could this happen! What on earth happened?

"I..." Yan Guoan was speechless.

Emperor Jing walked up to Yan Guoan, looking down at him with indifference in his eyes.

"Nothing to say? No one can save you today... Let alone the iron certificate of immunity from death, even if the late emperor were here, he couldn't save your life. I say this!"

Yan Guoan burst into tears, his voice hoarse, full of despair: "Why! Why! Your Majesty, even if you want me to die, you must let me die clearly..."

Emperor Jing shook his head, turned around and looked at the plaque in the hall again.

"Fair and aboveboard. Fair and aboveboard, you are not worthy of sitting under these four words. You all remember this, there are too many places in the world that I cannot see, but the people will see for me."

"It rained heavily, sewage flowed all over the streets, and the people had nowhere to go. This is how you, Yan Guoan, love the people like your own children..."

"If you still don't understand, go ask the children who are drowning in the streets. Push them out and behead them!"

Yan Guoan wailed as he was dragged out, still shouting, "You can't kill me! I'm the top scholar of the dynasty!!!"

"I am a Hanlin..."

Before he could finish his words, Yan Guoan stared blankly at the six people kneeling in front of him.

They were exactly the people that Emperor Jing had met in the pavilion before.

The crowd was also crying and wailing when they saw Yan Guoan as if they had seen a savior.

The most familiar Su Rongxian is also among them.

When he saw Yan Guoan's state, his mood had sunk to the bottom, but he still shouted instinctively: "Master Yan, help us! Save us, what happened to Master Yan!?"

Yan Guoan opened his mouth, tears streaming down his face, but he couldn't speak. He couldn't help but turn his head away.

As a scholar, he instinctively did not want to show this face to others.

But under the fear of death, the words in his heart finally burst out of his throat: "I am innocent..."

The knife flashed.

Before Yan Guoan could finish his words, the head fell to the ground.

But his body was still kneeling straight, and blood was rising into the sky and then falling down, as if it was raining blood.

With just one clean blow, all of Yan Guoan's pride and honor were taken away.

When he left, he had no dignity at all, and even his body was submerged in the sewage. No one cared about his expression anymore.

The blood splashed on Su Rongxian's face, and at this moment he was finally heartbroken.

The dignified and high-ranking Lord Yan died just like that?

What crime was committed? What crime did I commit?

As the body fell, a bright red color appeared in the sewage...

In the lobby, Li Yansong and others shook their heads and sighed, glancing at Fang Zhengyi out of the corner of their eyes.

Your Majesty has indeed killed a minister without authorization this time. I wonder how much turmoil this will cause in the court without clearing up the punishment according to the law.
