Chapter 144 I have no regrets in this life

"I was a Jinshi in the Yinian year of the Song Dynasty and became a Jinshi in the second year of Yiguang year. With your Majesty's favor, I have been awarded the title for more than 20 years."

Song Yi burst into tears and bowed deeply again.

"From the magistrate of Changlong County in Lingzhou to the magistrate of Lingzhou Prefecture, I served in Lingzhou as an official for more than 20 years."

"For more than 20 years, I have kept in mind His Majesty's kindness, which has enabled me to serve in official positions, serve the court, and serve the people of Lingzhou. I have also kept in mind my original intention to be loyal to the Lord and protect the people. I will not forget it for a day."

"But God didn't treat me well and caused Lingzhou to suffer this disaster."

"One wrong thought led to today's catastrophe."

"Even if I have hard reasons, my sin is unforgivable."

"In the heaven above, I, Song Yinian, use this remaining life as a sacrifice. I ask God to have mercy on the people and forgive my sins."

"I will have no regrets in this life."

After the words fell, while everyone was still stunned, Song Yinian's skinny body, with energy burst out from nowhere, hit the stone pillar of the execution platform, and blood spattered on the spot in an instant.

After Lian Qinghui had just untied the shackles of Magistrate Song, he walked to Prince Ning to discuss the next thing with him. Before he could react, Song Yinian had already passed away.

Killed by hitting a pillar.

I don’t know how much strength I have accumulated and how much determination I have made.

"Master Song, Master Song!"

When the people reacted, they couldn't help crying.

Song Tanxi hugged her younger brother and burst into tears.

She was closest to the execution platform, and she was probably the first person to notice Magistrate Song's thoughts, but she said nothing and could only watch her father make this decision.

He studied hard for half his life and worked as an official for half his life.

At the beginning, I studied to change my destiny. Later, I joined the court and became an official for the responsibility and the ideal of being a scholar.

But God made such a joke.

Is Magistrate Song really right?

Of course he was wrong.

There was a severe drought in Lingzhou three years ago. When he reported the matter to the court but received no result, he also had a different idea.

I was lucky enough to think that if I waited, even if something went wrong, I would still have time to make up for it.

The result was such a tragic ending.

Once he wakes up, the most difficult thing for him is not to face the mistakes he made, what mistakes he made, and why he made such mistakes.

It was the collapse of his life's ideals. He had no face to face the people who were still willing to intercede for him and spare his life, and he had no face to face himself.

That's why I chose to end my life in such a decisive way.

Qing Hui looked at Magistrate Song's body and bent down to salute.

Prince Ning also followed with the officials who followed him and bowed to the prefect of Song Dynasty.

"Song Zhifu Gao Yi."

Qing Hui looked at the crying people below, knelt down and worshiped with his hands on the ground.

"I hope the sky will take pity on the people of Lingzhou and bring down sweet rain."

King Ning and other officials also fell down and worshiped.

It was past noon, but the sun was still blazing in the sky.

Qing Hui lay on the ground, a little nervous.

Your Majesty said that just praying for rain would be enough, but would her gesture be okay?

…

The wilderness on the outskirts of Lingzhou City.

Lian Xueyin stood in the open field. The ground was covered with cracked earth and dead weeds.

He looked up at the sky, and his glazed golden pupils seemed to blend into the light coming from him.

Suddenly, a hole seemed to be torn open in the sky by his gaze, and a tall shadow holding a green umbrella came from the void.

He stood in mid-air, lowered his eyes and looked at Lian Xueyin,

"Shigure has met your Lord."

"Your Majesty, you woke up a little early."
