In order to prevent the prisoners from saying anything treacherous before death, each person's mouth was stuffed with hemp nuts and tied with a rope.
Lin Qi walked to Duan Jin first and bowed slightly, "Brother Duan, and younger brother Lin Qi, are here to give you a ride."
Duan Jin's eyes widened, but it was not Lin Qi who was staring at him, but the young servant next to him... Isn't this his younger brother Duan Yu? He is obviously dead, why is he here!
"Brothers, can you untie the ropes in their mouths and drink the last bowl of wine?" Lin Qi begged the executioner next to him.
"Well, it's okay to untie the rope, but you can't say anything." An executioner untied the rope from Duan Jin's mouth, caught the walnuts he spat out, and walked away.
"Woooooo!" Duan Jin wanted to speak, but because his mouth, tongue, and cheeks were all numbed by the walnuts, he couldn't speak at all.
"Brother, after drinking this bowl of wine, you can go in peace. I will bury your bodies, and we will be brothers in the next life." Duan Yu poured a bowl of wine, handed it to his mouth, and whispered against his ear. Whisper.
"Woo!" Duan Jin nodded repeatedly, drank a bowl of wine in one go, and burst into tears.
In full view of everyone, Duan Yu couldn't say another word to him. He just said goodbye with his eyes, and then poured a bowl of wine for each of the other three brothers.
When it was Zhang Yu's turn, Duan Yu whispered in his ear again, "General Zhang, I know you have an outhouse in Fengyang Mansion and a son. Lin Qi has helped me find them. Don't worry. Go ahead and I will take care of it."
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" Chang Yu's gloomy eyes suddenly lit up, and he kowtowed to Lin Qi on the ground so hard that his forehead bled!
"Master Xu, I will take good care of your family, so you can go without worry." When it was Xu Wenchang's turn, Duan Yu quietly explained a few more words.
But for others, they only communicate with eyes and never speak again.
"Who is this young man?" Shao Wenzhao, who was sitting in the warm tent on the execution platform, looked at Lin Qi and asked.
"It's Lin Dongyang's son Lin Qi." Zuo Sizhong, the fat man next to him, said, "I didn't realize that he is really responsible at such a young age."
"Haha, how can Lin Dongyang's son be an ordinary person?" Shao Wenzhao said, "Sonies like Duan Fengnian are just like dolphins."
"Master Shao, I really don't know what the emperor is thinking? Lin Dongyang is still in Jinyiweizhao Prison, but he has allowed his son Lin Qi to participate in the Jinke Examination." Zuo Sizhong whispered.
"Don't talk nonsense about this. Your Majesty, the old man...who is here?" Before Shao Wenzhao finished speaking, he saw several fast horses galloping towards him and stopped on the sidelines.
The leader dismounted and walked to Chen Ming, Li Toyota and the others to talk.
"This is Langya general Duan Qiyun." Zuo Sizhong said, "I heard that he also made a lot of achievements this time and was highly appreciated by the young prince and Xiaohou. Haha, he is also a smart man who understands current affairs."
"It's true to know the current affairs, but it's not necessarily smart." Shao Wenzhao smiled slightly, meaningfully, "Who among the smart people is willing to go to the countryside in such a cold weather? They are all staying at home."
"That's right." Zuo Sizhong also smiled, "Nothing that should have come came, and what shouldn't have come did."
Duan Qiyun really shouldn't have come. He missed his old friendship and took a huge risk to personally come and see everyone off for the last time.
But Duan Jin, Changyu and others hated him so much that no one would drink his wine and even spit in his face, which made him somewhat embarrassed. He reluctantly walked around and came back angrily.
"General Duan, you really shouldn't have come." Chen Ming said, "Their mouths are obviously numb, otherwise they would still have harsh words to say."
"Just scold them. I won't care about the dying people. I'm just here to find some peace of mind." Duan Qiyun sighed, "At least I helped them collect the bodies. After all, we worked together once before."
"Everything you, General Duan, shouldn't have come, why can't you see any of the ones who should?" Li Fengtian said, "This really shows the warmth and coldness of people, and the world has become cold."
"Master Li is talking about..." As soon as Wu Fazheng's words came out, he felt something was inappropriate and quickly shut up.
"It's a cold day, Mr. Li, please stop saying a few words. If you eat the cold wind, your stomach will hurt when you go home, and you won't be able to eat anything delicious during the Chinese New Year." Chen Ming said with a smile.
While several people were talking, they suddenly saw another person galloping towards him. Looking from a distance, they recognized him. Isn't this Mr. Sun Zhisun from Fengyang Palace?
You are really talking about Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here. Just now Li Fengtian was talking about the warmth and coldness of human relationships, and he was talking about King Fengyang!
No matter how you say it, Duan Fengnian was once your confidant. There is nothing wrong with the law not being merciful, but there should be mercy outside the law. Now that his entire family has been executed, even if you send someone to take a look, it still means the same thing. .
Lin Dongyang is in prison, and he sent his son here. Duan Qiyun is Langya's general, and his identity is so sensitive, but he is here. You are the prince, the emperor's biological son, but why should you avoid suspicion? What bird are you afraid of?
However, Sun Zhi was sent anyway, which was somewhat popular.
Sun Zhi came directly to the prison, and Shao Wenzhao also recognized him. Although he was only a man in white, everyone knew that he was deeply trusted by King Fengyang, and he was a complete confidant.
So when I saw him saluting in the audience, I stood up and returned the salute slightly, "Mr. Sun, this is..."
"Master Shao, I would like to come and see the Duan family members off, is it convenient?" Sun Zhidao.
"Excuse me, sir." Shao Wenzhao said.
"Thank you, sir." Sun Zhidao.
He didn't say that he was sent by Li Feng, and Shao Wenzhao didn't ask.
But it probably wasn't sent by Li Feng, because if it were, Sun Zhi would definitely say that he was ordered by the prince...
Duan Jin and others also knew Sun Zhi, and when they saw him coming, they had very complicated expressions on their faces. Sun Zhi didn't bring any wine, and he didn't say anything. He just cupped his fists and handed his hands to everyone in order to see him off.
Suddenly I heard someone shouting that it was two o'clock in the afternoon, and there were people waiting, so quickly retreat!
Sun Zhi didn't have time to say goodbye one by one. He handed over to the remaining people and turned around to appear, looking very lonely.
"Mr. Sun, if you just say this, you will need an operation. After a while, the head will fall to the ground, blood will flow into the river, and the scene will not look good. I think it is better for you, sir, to take the first step." Chen Mingdao.
Sun Zhi shook his head slightly, his gaze resting on Lin Qi, showing a hint of surprise.
"Mr. Sun, long time no see." Duan Qiyun recognized him and took the initiative to greet him.
"General Duan is here too?" Sun Zhi nodded slightly to him and said nothing more.
At three quarters of noon, the executioners who had been waiting for a long time began to execute the execution. Because the mouths of the people who were beheaded were all numb, there were no screams or whines.
There was only the north wind blowing, and only the splash of blood could be seen, and the painful clicking sound of the knife on the neck could be vaguely heard.
In just a quarter of an hour, dozens of prisoners were all missing their heads, and the white snow turned red...
