Although he has prevented the fifth prince from rebelling, he has colluded with too many people over the years, and there are indeed many remaining forces under his command.
The emperor was so busy that he was dizzy, while the queen stayed in the palace to rest, thinking about it, she was very sad.
When Du Yang was being taken to the execution ground, Du Baili took the initiative to visit him.
He was tied to the same position where Du Qianyi was tied before.
But he was much calmer than Du Qianyi at that time.
I heard that he was quiet and kept quiet. The emperor even specially sent a group of imperial guards to surround the execution ground inside and outside. It was obvious that he was really murderous.
Naturally, Liu Shengsheng and Nan Muze also went to see it.
Although this time, there were not so many people watching the fun.
Du Yang remained quiet until he was beheaded.
No one could tell anything from his expression.
That kind of indifferent expression, as if he had seen through everything, but also seemed to have lost his desire for life.
In fact, Liu Shengsheng felt empty in her heart.
She didn't know what she was thinking. Deep down in her heart, she might have sympathized with Du Yang.
But then I thought about it, if he hadn't died, maybe I would have died in his hands long ago...
It was a little unexpected that Du Tingyun came back.
Just before Du Yang's head fell to the ground, he rode a fast horse and rushed in this direction crazily, "Save someone under the knife..."
But there is no reason to take back the fallen knife?
Du Yang died after all.
Du Tingyun's painfully twisted expression could be seen from a distance.
He rushed to the execution ground crazily and kicked the executioner to the ground, "I told you to save someone under the knife! What have you done? He is the fifth prince! How can you kill him!"
The executioner knelt on the ground tremblingly, not daring to say a word.
The surrounding soldiers all recognized Du Tingyun, and no one dared to speak at this moment.
Instead, a guard hurried forward and said, "Your Highness, this is the Emperor's order! His Highness the Fifth Prince not only rebelled, but also almost killed the Emperor and the Queen. He deserved what he deserved!"
Du Tingyun blushed angrily, "Impossible! There must be a misunderstanding about this matter! The fifth brother is so innocent, he can't do such a thing!"
From the moment they returned to the capital, the people in the city were talking about the fifth prince's rebellion.
He also said that he was about to be beheaded.
Du Tingyun was really panicked. Although he didn't know what happened, he knew very well that the person who was going to be beheaded was his brother!
He had no way of watching his brother be beheaded before seeing the truth with his own eyes!
I wanted to come and stop it, but in the end it was too late...
He didn't even dare to look at the bloody scene, and the heartache made him unable to breathe.
Suddenly seeing Liu Shengsheng in the crowd, he staggered over and ran over.
"Shengsheng! Are you here too? Why didn't you stop them just now?"
Liu Shengsheng, who originally planned to return to the palace, had no choice but to stop and looked back at him helplessly, "Brother, on the way back, didn't anyone tell you everything that happened in the palace?"
Du Tingyun said with an ugly face: "Yes! They said that the fifth brother had rebelled, and also said that he wanted to kill all of you, but this is obviously impossible!"
"Fifth brother has always been the most innocent one among the brothers. He can't do such a thing at all, and he doesn't have such a brain. He must have been slandered by others. There must be someone behind him! How could you not find out? The truth of the matter is, just kill him? We are a family! He..."
"Brother!" Liu Shengsheng interrupted him helplessly.
Du Tingyun felt bitter, "I can't believe it, Shengsheng, have you really found out?"
"I asked you, are you mentally ill? How did a person like you become the prince? He wanted to kill his biological parents. He did such unscrupulous things, and you still did it? Can you speak for him?"
Yichen, who was following behind, cursed on the spot and said angrily:
"The emperor and the queen are not fools. How could they behead their sons if they didn't have complete evidence? It's clear that there is evidence!"
"And not only do we have evidence, we watched him arrest us. We also heard his voice with our own ears. He even sent many people to assassinate you!"
Having said this, Yichen raised an eyebrow at him very provocatively, "Didn't you notice anything wrong on the way back? It's impossible, right? You have the ability to escape from those killers and escape, but you don't have the brains Think about what happened to you? How can you be a prince like this?"
"How dare you talk to me like this?" Du Tingyun was furious.
Yichen crossed his arms and said, "Do you care whether you are the prince or the emperor? My only master is my girl! If you accuse my girl in front of me, who will you be blaming if I don't criticize you?"
"you……"
"What are you, you don't have eyes? This is the country where you left the country, and my girl not only saved the country for you, but also protected your parents and brothers. If you don't thank my girl properly when you come back, forget it. I have the nerve to come and ask, do you have water in your brain? Oh, no, your brain should be completely filled with water!"
"Yichen."
Liu Shengsheng said helplessly, this boy's courage is getting bigger and bigger now.
Fortunately, as soon as she opened her mouth, Yichen immediately shut her mouth and then obediently stepped aside.
Of course, when he left, he glared at Du Tingyun fiercely, his eyes full of disgust.
Du Tingyun took a breath and forced himself to calm down.
As a prince, he was really angry when a servant retorted like this.
But this is Liu Shengsheng's servant after all. Thinking about Liu Shengsheng's protective character, Du Tingyun did not blame Yichen in the end, but said with sincerity: "Brother is not here to blame you. Brother just feels that he has died during this period." too many people."
"Brother, there is no need to thank me."
Liu Shengsheng said this calmly.
Du Tingyun's lips twitched, "Shengsheng..."
"Those damn people helped big brother solve it in advance, and they really saved big brother a lot of trouble. But big brother doesn't need to thank me, it's just a little effort."
After saying that, Liu Shengsheng held Nan Muze's hand and left there casually.
Du Tingyun was a little angry, "Shengsheng, you..."
"If the prince has anything to say, you can go back to the palace and say it. You just came back from outside, so don't embarrass yourself here." Nan Muze spoke mercilessly, his tone full of indifference.
Seeing that he had opened his mouth, Du Tingyun still had nothing to say, so he could only reluctantly shut his mouth, and then followed them back to the palace.
As soon as he returned, he met the emperor.
But he never thought that he would be scolded as soon as he entered the imperial study room.
"How do you expect me to leave the country in your hands with confidence? You don't do anything that I should do, and you do everything that I shouldn't do!"
"I thought you could learn a lot by going out, but instead you lost all your brains by going out. Is rebellion a child's play? Do you think I can do it for no reason? Killed his own son?"
