"Really?"
"Everyone has been escorted out, how can we still have a holiday?"
"You can't secretly change people, right? In the past, those nobles from aristocratic families did many dirty things."
"I'm overthinking it. Over there, have you seen it? That couple is the victim. They are here to watch in person." Xu Huang stood on the temporary high platform and looked at the crowd of heads under the stage, with their ears lingering. There was a continuous discussion, his eyebrows were knitted, and his expression was slightly serious.
Following everyone's gaze, he looked at Chen Feng and his wife standing next to the high platform, nodded slightly to them, and then waved his hand.
Liu Cong and his accomplice were brought up.
"Look, it's those two who have killed a thousand swordsmen. Look at their clothes. It's obvious that they are not simple." Liu Cong was dressed in brocade clothes. In order to replace him, the entourage also wore Liu Cong's brocade clothes, although there were some It was dilapidated, but one glance showed that it was not clothes that ordinary people could afford.
The two men were brought up to the high platform with their arms twisted behind their backs by four big men, and they knelt directly in front of Xu Huang, facing the common people under the high platform.
Liu Cong had a piece of rag stuffed in his mouth and was still trying to make a final death struggle, whimpering and roaring in an attempt to make a sound.
On the contrary, the follower seemed to have accepted the reality, staring at the ground with dull eyes, his whole person lifeless.
Not far away, Mrs. Cai was standing on a two-story building. When she saw Liu Cong being escorted onto the high platform, she staggered back and almost fainted.
Fortunately, the maid on the side had quick eyes and quick hands and supported her. The maid's eyes were filled with disbelief at this time. This was the first time she saw Mrs. Cai looking so helpless and powerless.
"Madam, the second young master is really, really going to be... wuwu..." The maid tried her best to squeeze out a tear, but in fact she couldn't see much trace of sadness.
Mrs. Cai came back to her senses and looked at another two-story building across the street. Wei Gong was standing opposite with a group of scribes. It seemed that he felt her evil gaze. Wei Gong turned his head to look at her, and then Look back soon.
Mrs. Cai clenched her fingers tightly, her nails almost digging into her flesh. The pain in her palms told her that all this was true, that Liu Cong was really going to be executed, and that the conspiracy that she and her brother had been planning for several years would also come to an end here. It disappeared in a moment.
She didn't even know how to explain to Liu Biao and her younger brother Cai Mao when she went back. What she was thinking about at this time was not whether Liu Cong should die, but that if Liu Cong died, everything Liu Biao would inherit would be inherited by his eldest son Liu Qi.
What was abominable was that Liu Qi only had eyes for his deceased biological mother and had no respect for his stepmother.
"What a ruthless method, Mr. Wei, what a Mr. Wei... I will pay you back a hundred times a thousand times for today's revenge!" Mrs. Cai stared at Wei Gong, as if she wanted to eat her alive.
At this moment, the maid behind her suddenly exclaimed: "Ah!" Mrs. Cai's expression changed drastically, and she turned back to look towards the high platform.
Gululu...
"Cong'er! My Cong'er!" Looking at the falling heads, even if she had always regarded Liu Cong as a tool, Mrs. Cai could not help but feel sad at this time.
The people watching below and the spies hiding among them had different expressions at this time.
"Really cut him off. This Wei family is too cruel. He is from a family that doesn't even give him any face."
"Brother Li, I have a strong feeling that we have encountered a real problem this time."
"I feel the same, two brothers, let's go back as soon as possible to inform the chief. This Wei family is not simple. Whether it is the strict military discipline or the weird inner armor on their bodies, it is obvious that the Wei family has been planning for a long time. , don't get along easily." At the corner of the street, three men wearing bamboo hats looked at each other and had a brief exchange.
As soon as the leader finished speaking, another man looked at the expressionless Xu Huang above him in the distance and said in a deep voice: "Brother Li, Brother Hu, you two go to Washe first and wait for me for half a day. I have one thing that I have to do." I want to ask for confirmation."... The gate of the city.
The heads of Liu Cong and his entourage were hung high on ropes at the city gate. There are notices posted on both sides of the city gate, which contain evidence of the crimes committed by Liu Cong and his wife. The content does not conceal Liu Cong's identity at all.
There have been more and more refugees who have been unable to escape in the past few days, including some children of aristocratic families in the central and northern parts of Hedong.
After finally encountering a city, it is natural to enter the city for supplies and repairs. When they entered the city, they saw the heads on the city gate and the people gathered on both sides from a distance, so they immediately sent people to check the contents of the notice.
And when they learned that one of the two heads above their heads was that of Liu Cong, the second son of the Northern Army Lieutenant Colonel Liu Jingsheng, many people were so frightened that they turned around and fled, thinking that the county town had also been captured by the Baibo Army. Occupied.
Fortunately, it was just a false alarm. When they learned that the people guarding the city were the children of the Wei family in Hedong, everyone sighed that it was a false alarm.
However, I became more and more curious as to why Liu Cong's head was hanging on the city gate tower. When they learned that Liu Cong had just raped an ordinary woman and was sentenced to beheaded, some of the usually dandy children from the aristocratic family restrained themselves and immediately set off southward as soon as the supply and repairs were completed.
At the same time, Xu Huang's evil name was mentioned again. It had only been a few days since his glorious deeds of chasing down a thousand Baibo Army cavalry with one man and one ax, but now he had another ax cut off the head of Liu Cong, a descendant of the Han clan.
As expected, when these people continue to go south, Xu Huang's "evil reputation" will spread throughout the Han Dynasty.
However, there are good and bad reputations. Many rumors spread privately, that the Wei family had treasonous intentions, that Xu Huang was the executioner that the Wei family pushed to the world, and that there was a bigger conspiracy behind the Wei family.
You don't need to ask to know who else but Mrs. Cai would release these rumors at this time. It was hard for Emiya to say anything about this. Even if he knew that she was secretly spreading rumors and causing trouble, there was no way to arrest her without evidence.
Moreover, they had just killed Liu Biao's son. If they attack Mrs. Cai again, the blame that Wei and Wei Hao will face will be even more unpredictable.
At this time, Wei Gong and Xu Huang met an unexpected person. The moment he saw this person, Wei Gong once again sighed at Wei Cheng's strategizing.
Inner city, small courtyard where Emiya lives. Xu Huang looked at the man in front of him who had taken off his bamboo hat. He was stunned for a moment, then suddenly stepped forward... and hugged him.
"Hahaha, Brother Yang."
"Brother Xu!" The person who came was none other than Yang Feng, a fierce general under the command of the leader of the Baibo Army, Mrs. Guo, and a fellow countryman and friend of Xu Huang's.
At this time, Yang Feng was dressed like a farmer, and one could tell at a glance that he had sneaked into the city.
But Wei Gong and Xu Huang simply chose to ignore it, because Xu Huang came here specifically to wait for Yang Feng on Wei Cheng's orders.
Yang Feng also gave a puzzled expression: "Brother Xu, you seem to have expected that I would come to you?" Xu Huang laughed, and he was in a good mood when he saw his best friend again.
Nodding, he said: "Yes, my young master is very knowledgeable about things. He said that I only need to wait here for a few days before I can see you."
"Oh!" Yang Feng looked stunned.
