"According to the laws of Great Xia, Princess Yuehua has done something that is against the moral code and has killed several people, including some students who have passed the imperial examinations. She should be beheaded immediately and displayed to the public!" Lord Wei said in a serious and resounding voice.
"Princess Yuehua is supported by the people, but she did such a cruel thing to harm the people. This must not be tolerated!"
"Those students who were brutally murdered will become pillars of our country in the future. This act harms the people's livelihood and the country! Your Majesty, please execute them immediately!"
"As long as Princess Yuehua is alive, the dead cannot rest in peace!"
Civil and military officials all requested Emperor Yuan to execute Princess Yuehua and her daughter, and it would be best if they beheaded them in public!
Princess Yuehua burst into tears and kept shaking her head, obviously begging for mercy from Emperor Yuan.
Princess Wen'an looked at Liu Yan and asked with tears in her eyes, "Have you ever liked me?"
"No, never! Every moment I spend with you, I feel extremely disgusted!" Liu Yan said mercilessly.
"Haha~" County Lady Wen'an laughed at herself, "It's really hard for you to play with me for so long."
"Liu Yan... I'm sorry..." Princess Wen'an said as she pulled out the hairpin on her head.
“Hide quickly…”
Before Liu Yan could finish his words, Princess Wen'an inserted the hairpin into her heart.
She slowly leaned to one side, "Liu Yan, I really... like you. If... if we..."
She died before she could even finish her words, without even closing her eyes.
Liu Yan didn't react at all and looked away indifferently.
Emperor Yuan retracted his gaze and said expressionlessly: "Princess Yuehua disregarded the law and killed innocent people. This is a heinous crime and she should be beheaded immediately.
But because of his special status, beheading him publicly would damage the reputation of the royal family, so he was given a cup of poisoned wine and his body was left intact. "
The Left Prime Minister, Lord Wei and others felt that under such dire circumstances, a private execution was particularly inappropriate, and they wanted to once again request Emperor Yuan to behead Princess Yuehua in public to show justice!
But Emperor Yuan did not give them a chance to speak, and said directly: "I have made up my mind, my dear ministers, there is no need to say more. Come, bring the poisoned wine."
Upon hearing that Emperor Yuan was going to execute Princess Yuehua in the hall, the civil and military officials said nothing more.
Not long after, Li Fuquan brought up a eunuch with a pot of poisoned wine.
At this time, Su Yuan pleaded, "Your Majesty, can you allow me to see Princess Yuehua off for the last time?"
Emperor Yuan looked at her in silence for a moment, then waved his hand and agreed.
Then, Su Yuan walked over with the poisoned wine.
She took out the handkerchief that was blocking Princess Yuehua and sneered, "Have you ever thought that this day would come?"
Princess Yuehua glared at Su Yuan fiercely, then looked at Emperor Yuan and begged for mercy, "Brother, Yuehua knows that she has committed a heinous crime and is unforgivable.
Yuehua is willing to serve the Buddha for life, pray for Daxia, pray for the people, and pray for the dead. I beg my brother to spare Yuehua's life!"
Emperor Yuan listened to Princess Yuehua's plea for mercy with a blank expression on his face and no fluctuation in his eyes. He looked at her coldly, as if he was looking at a stranger.
Su Yuan was afraid that Emperor Yuan would be soft-hearted, so she immediately grabbed Princess Yuehua's chin and said fiercely, "You killed so many people, and you still want to live. Aren't you afraid that they will come to claim your life at night?"
"You must die today!" Su Yuan said as he poured the poisoned wine in his hand into her mouth.
Princess Yuehua struggled desperately, and some wine spilled on her clothes.
After a while, her face turned blue and purple, her body began to twitch, and her eyes gradually dimmed.
Princess Yuehua slowly collapsed to the ground, then crawled twice towards Emperor Yuan before she died.
Jiang Yueyang looked at the fallen Princess Yuehua and asked suspiciously: [Little melon, did His Majesty tamper with the wine? ]
[Why do you ask this?] The system is puzzled.
[Hmm... don't people who die of poisoning bleed from all seven orifices? But you see, after Princess Yuehua drank the poisoned wine, not a single drop of blood flowed.] Jiang Yueyang raised his hand and pinched his chin, very suspicious, [Is she really dead?]
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked at Emperor Yuan with suspicion.
Emperor Yuan: “!!!”
He didn't do anything!
Just as he was about to question Li Fuquan with his eyes, the system replied: [According to my scan, Princess Yuehua is indeed dead. There is no bleeding, it may be poison. ]
[Really dead? ]
【It is impossible to die any more.】
[No need to attack twice more?] Jiang Yueyang was still a little worried.
System: […Host, can you trust me a little? She is really dead! ]
Jiang Yueyang smiled awkwardly and stopped questioning.
"Report..." A joyful and urgent voice suddenly came from outside, and everyone turned their heads to look outside.
As the sound got closer, a guard ran into the hall.
Before he even knelt down, he couldn't wait to say, "Your Majesty, General Lu has sent a good news report, General Feng has been successfully rescued!
In addition, our army defeated the Eastern Turks, captured countless enemy soldiers, and seized a large amount of food, fodder, and horses!"
As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar in the hall, and all the civil and military officials were delighted!
Emperor Yuan was delighted. "Great! Great! Pass on my order. When they return triumphantly, I will reward them handsomely!"
"Your Majesty is wise!" all civil and military officials shouted.
Seeing that Emperor Yuan did not ask about Lu Yunting and the others' situation, Jiang Yueyang hesitated for a moment and then walked towards the imperial guards.
She asked in a low voice: "Um, Brother Imperial Guard, did the victory report say that anyone was injured?"
"No." The imperial guard replied in a low voice.
Jiang Yueyang breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that. She was glad that no one was injured.
Emperor Yuan stood on top and took in everything. He smiled helplessly and shook his head.
After the joy, today's morning court ended.
Jiang Yueyang walked outside happily, but someone grabbed her arm after she took only two steps.
She looked back and found it was King Yan.
"Is there something wrong, Your Highness?" Jiang Yueyang asked puzzledly.
King Yan asked in silence, "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine. What could happen to me?" Jiang Yueyang felt that he was a little bit puzzled.
Seeing her reaction, King Yan couldn't help but roll his eyes, "Jiang Yueyang, don't you think you forgot something?"
Hearing him ask this, Jiang Yueyang couldn't help but tilt his head and think, "Did I... forget something? Nothing?"
At this time, Kong Jijiu walked past them like a ghost and said the three words "Supervision Office" in a light voice.
Hearing the words "Supervision Department", Jiang Yueyang suddenly remembered what she had forgotten and smiled at King Yan embarrassedly.
King Yan: "You remember?"
"I...I didn't forget." Jiang Yueyang argued, "I was just teasing you on purpose just now."
"Hehe~" King Yan looked like he was asking, "Do you think I believe it?"
"Okay, okay, let's go. They must be getting anxious waiting." Jiang Yueyang turned around and walked out.
Today, the Supervisory Department is officially launched, and Jiang Yueyang, the chief officer, needs to be present to meet everyone.
"Jiang Yueyang, what can your brain remember?" King Yan quickly chased after him.
"Your Highness, I will remember you!"
