Chapter 9 The Victim is the Tyrant Again
However, soon, another increasingly strong feeling of heartache came over her. It was not her emotion, but that of this body.
The original owner of this body was worried about his family.
The Liu family's family situation is similar to hers, with loving parents and a harmonious family.
In this era when men can have three wives and four concubines and when men are valued more than women, Liu Zhongyuan has only one wife, Madam Liu, and he dotes on his youngest daughter, Liu Zhiyuan.
Her whole family holds her in the palm of their hands, and Liu Zhiyuan has a very deep relationship with them, so she would risk being beaten to death to go to Xiao Yu to plead for mercy.
To be honest, on the way here, Liu Zhiyuan didn't have much of a feeling that the Liu family was going to be beheaded.
She was unable to empathize with the characters in a book, just like an audience member who accidentally entered the stage, with an intangible and invisible wall separating her from the actors on the stage.
When you read a book, do you think of yourself as the character in the book? When you play a game, do you feel sad when a game character dies?
Not at all, because for real people, none of that is real.
However, now, looking at the three faces in front of her that looked exactly like her parents and brother, and feeling the strong emotions in her body, she suddenly felt a sense of reality.
These are her parents and relatives.
They were wronged, tortured, and humiliated. They were incorruptible but were stigmatized. Now they were about to be beheaded. Liu Zhiyuan seemed to see his own parents and brother being killed, and his eyes instantly became redder.
My heart ached even more.
No, she couldn't just watch her parents die unjustly, she had to save them no matter what!
Seeing her sad expression, Madam Liu's heart was broken.
Even though she was about to be executed, she still comforted him softly, "Yuan'er, don't be afraid, don't be sad, just live well."
She wanted to touch Liu Zhiyuan's face and wipe away her daughter's tears, but her hands were shackled and she could do nothing.
Liu Changjia is the calmest among the three. Even his disheveled appearance cannot hide his handsome face and proud character.
His eyes darkened slightly. Since Liu Zhiyuan could appear here today, it meant that the Liu family's affairs did not involve her.
That's good.
As long as my little sister is fine, that's enough.
"Yuan'er, you must take good care of yourself in the future. Don't seek revenge for us, and don't go to the emperor to plead for mercy. Live a good life in the harem."
Seeing that noon was approaching, Liu Zhongyuan hurriedly said, "Yuan'er, now that father is gone, don't be willful like before, don't go against Concubine Chen, and don't mention us in front of the emperor. Just stay in the harem and live a quiet life."
His daughter's face was destined to bring disaster. Even if he did nothing, such beauty would probably attract jealousy. No one would protect her in the future. What would he do?
As I thought about it, tears welled up in my eyes.
Madam Liu's face was filled with tears. "My dear daughter, I won't be able to visit you anymore. You must eat well, dress well in winter, and take good care of yourself. Otherwise, I won't be able to rest in peace even in my grave..."
Liu Zhiyuan was heartbroken, but her eyes were determined. "Dad, Mom, brother, don't worry, I will definitely find a way to save you!"
"Absolutely not!" Liu Changjia's face changed drastically.
The current emperor is tyrannical and self-centered, and he hates disobedience the most. Once, the son of a minister accidentally offended the emperor with his words and was sentenced to death by burning with fire. The minister went to the palace to plead for mercy, but was implicated and beheaded as a result.
No mercy at all.
It can be seen that he is a complete tyrant. No one dares to say anything about his decisions. If Liu Zhiyuan goes to plead for mercy, he will probably end up in a miserable situation.
Absolutely not going!
Liu Zhongyuan was worried. "Yuan'er, noon is almost here. The Liu family's affairs are a done deal. There's no turning back. You must remember to stay out of this and not get yourself involved."
Liu Zhiyuan wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by the Dali Temple official in charge of supervising the execution, "It's noon, all outsiders should leave."
Two guards stepped forward and drove Liu Zhiyuan away. Liu Zhiyuan refused to leave, so his hands were held up and he was forcibly taken away.
Seeing her being dragged away, Liu Zhongyuan and others became excited and struggled to pounce on her, but were held down tightly by the guards behind them.
"Yuan'er, take care of yourself from now on!"
"Yuan'er, don't investigate, don't seek revenge, just live well."
"Yuan'er..."
Liu Zhiyuan struggled, but the body was too weak and she couldn't break free at all. In the end, she was dragged away in vain.
"Dad, Mom, Brother, I will definitely find a way to save you!"
The Dali Temple Minister sneered and said, "Save?"
Too late!
It's noon now. The Liu family is destined to die here today, with no chance of recovery!
He drew the death card and held it down, "Noon has arrived, execution!"
The executioner raised the butcher knife. Liu Zhongyuan and others closed their eyes unwillingly, but Liu Zhiyuan's eyes suddenly widened.
The next second, she reappeared in front of the Liu family, but someone was holding her arm and dragging her out.
Liu Zhongyuan and others struggled to rush forward, but were pushed back.
"Yuan'er, take good care of yourself from now on..."
Liu Zhiyuan, "..."
I just shifted into reverse in a hurry and casually moved the progress bar. I didn't expect it only went back a few seconds. What a mistake.
Seeing that she was about to be dragged down again, she pulled the progress bar back.
Everything went dark before her eyes, and she appeared in front of the Liu family. Liu Changjia looked at her with reluctance on his face.
"Yuan'er, you must take good care of yourself in the future. Don't seek revenge for us, and don't go to the emperor to plead for mercy. Live a good life in the harem."
It didn't take long. After another pull, she sat back on the carriage heading to the execution ground and staggered towards it.
This time there was plenty of time, so Liu Zhiyuan hurriedly tried to recall the original plot.
The Liu family's unjust case was just one of the insignificant incidents among the many atrocities committed by the tyrant Xiao Yu. There was no detailed record of it. In addition, she watched it on fast forward, so she was not impressed by many of the plots.
Even if I pulled my hair out, I still couldn't remember how the Liu family was framed. I only vaguely remembered that by the end of the book, the Liu family had not been rehabilitated, and the two million taels of disaster relief silver had not been found.
There is no clue at all and time is so tight, it is impossible to overturn the case for the Liu family.
The only solution now is to find a way to find Xiao Yu and see if he can plead for the Liu family, or even just give her some time to think of a solution.
Liu Zhiyuan glanced at the saved game file she had saved when she came out of the cold palace. In other words, the earliest she could go back to the cold palace was now. If she angered Xiao Yu at that time, the worst that could happen was that she would have to reload the game and start over.
Not afraid.
As she was thinking, the carriage had already arrived near the execution ground. Thinking of her parents and brother, she did not reload the game to find Xiao Yu, but went to see them first.
