The eighteenth year of Hongwu!
Beiping Prefecture, Chaishikou.
The crowd's voice was boiling, mixed with screams.
Guo An stood with a pale face among a group of officials wearing green robes and official uniforms. He looked at the beheadings in front of him, his face full of discomfort but he didn't dare not look away.
On a wide piece of land in front, there was a row of prisoners kneeling in white linen clothes. They all had thick shackles around their necks. They knelt feebly on the wooden pillars and supported them with all their strength.
Each of these prisoners looked desperate, their clothes were ragged, their bodies were stained with blood, and there was no good skin anywhere.
In fact, many prisoners opened their mouths wide, but did not make any sound.
It can be seen that these prisoners have no teeth in their mouths, and some even have half of their tongues missing!
"How miserable!"
Guo An shuddered subconsciously, but did not dare to close his eyes.
Because, behind these officials, there was a group of fierce-looking soldiers, staring at them eagerly the whole time.
If they dare to be lazy and not take a good look, they will be like those unlucky officials in front of them, being held up by soldiers one by one and watching only a dozen steps away from the beheaded criminals.
Guo An could see that the feet of those officials were already slightly damp!
On the other side, it was surrounded by people wearing various clothes.
Completely opposite to the expressions of officials like Guo An, some of the people's faces were full of sorrow, while others were happy that their great revenge had been avenged.
"cut!"
Suddenly, with a loud shout, the executioners in the field waved their machetes. Before the prisoners had time to struggle, the swords flashed, and a series of heads flew up, while the corpses fell to the ground helplessly.' A string of blood stains spurted out.
Immediately, a group of soldiers on one side came forward expressionlessly, carried away the corpses, and sprinkled some plant ash on the ground.
Then, a group of prisoners were taken in again.
…
"Ugh~"
After two rounds, Guo An felt very uncomfortable and his stomach began to churn.
Similarly, as the heads rolled down one by one, the officials beside him also turned pale, and some even vomited directly at their feet!
This is real!
Seeing this scene, Guo An finally believed that this was not the filming scene of a large-scale costume drama, nor was it a prank show playing tricks on him!
He really and truly traveled through time inexplicably after taking a nap!
Then, he was brought here to watch the beheading in a daze!
At the same time, a memory also emerged from the depths of Guo An's mind.
His original name is also Guo An, his father is Guo Zhongshi... and his ancestor is a particularly powerful technology superstar, Guo Shoujing!
...Guo Shoujing?
It is now the eighteenth year of Hongwu, the year when the Guo Huan case broke out, and the place where he is standing now is the execution ground of Beiping Prefecture?
The King of Yan, Zhu Di, supervised the execution. As for the execution site, it was the officials found out in Guo Huan's case. Among them were Guo An's direct superiors, the county magistrate and the magistrate of Wanping County?
The more he thought about it, the paler Guo An's face turned.
"All you officials should open your eyes wide and watch carefully. This is what you will end up if you are eating my salary from the Ming Dynasty, but you don't want to be loyal to the emperor and serve the country, and you only want to corrupt officials and prey on the common people!"
Suddenly, King Yan Zhu Di, who was wearing a purple uniform, looked towards Guo An and shouted sharply.
Suddenly, Guo An shivered subconsciously.
Similarly, all the officials beside Guo An quickly bowed their hands to Zhu Di and said yes.
In this way, it was not until midnight in the afternoon that Guo An escaped this torture. With the support of his attendant and bodyguard Guo Erniu, he stumbled all the way back to his home where more than a dozen large chun trees were planted.
"Uh-huh..."
As soon as he entered the courtyard, Guo An hugged a chun tree and started spraying it out.
"Master?"
Behind him, Guo Erniu's face was full of worry. He was about to step forward, but he smelled an unbearable smell, and a trace of confusion flashed on his honest face.
"Ugh...go get me some water!"
"Yes, Master!"
Guo Erniu's face lit up and he ran towards the house.
Under the chun tree, Guo An was still retching.
…
At night, Guo An's mind was still filled with the mountains of heads and corpses he saw during the day.
Early the next morning.
As soon as the sky turned gray, Guo An was woken up by Guo Erniu from outside.
Opening his eyes and being stunned for a long time, Guo Ancai had no choice but to accept the reality of time travel and slowly got out of bed.
Then, with the help of a maid, he put on his official uniform.
However, just after washing up, Guo Erniu hurriedly urged: "Master, you don't have time to have breakfast, you need to go to Chaishikou to order Mao!"
"Why go to Chaishikou?"
Enduring the hunger in his belly, Guo An asked with a puzzled look on his face.
Guo Er Newton looked at Guo An with horror on his face, "Master, are you suffering from hysteria? The corrupt officials in the Beiping Mansion have not yet been killed. According to King Yan's order, before all the corrupt officials in the Beiping Mansion have been killed, all the corrupt officials in the Beiping Mansion will be killed." Officials have to go and watch!”
"Still going?"
Thinking of the hellish scene of Shura yesterday, Guo An couldn't help but widen his eyes with sorrow on his face.
When he returned from Nachaishikou yesterday, he vomited all night and had nightmares all night.
And now tell him that he must go to the execution ground on time today to watch the beheading!
Guo Erniu looked up at the sky, his face became more anxious, and he urged again: "Master, there is no time. If you don't go, you will miss the time. Not only will you be slapped by His Highness King Yan, but you will also be inspected. Censor, come up and play!"
Guo An also subconsciously thought of the consequences of being late in front of Zhu Laosi. With a bitter look on his face, he hurriedly walked out.
Going to work is like going to the grave!
It has been a tough journey. Being an official in the Ming Dynasty is definitely not as good as his previous job in 1996!
Fortunately, the Chunshu Hutong where Guo An lived was not far from Chaishikou, where the execution was carried out. Guo An finally arrived before Zhu Di and successfully executed the execution.
Afterwards, he stood quietly in the corner, waiting for Zhu Laosi to escort the prisoners to behead them!
After a while, I couldn't hold back my curiosity and looked up everywhere.
Around him were the same familiar faces from yesterday.
However, these officials all had dark circles under their eyes and looked depressed. It was obvious that they had not had a good rest last night.
Opposite the officials' viewing area, a group of ordinary people had arrived early, and they were all full of expectations. There were no family members of the prisoners?
Guo An couldn't help but be a little confused!
"His Royal Highness King Yan is here!"
Just as Guo An was looking around, a loud voice came over.
All the officials around him trembled, bowed their heads quickly, and turned to salute in the direction of the sound very skillfully.
"Welcome to His Highness King Yan!"
After the ceremony, Guo An was free and secretly raised his head to see Zhu Laosi.
Yesterday, all he could think about were the heads and the bloody corpses, and he didn't even think about looking at Zhu Laosi.
At this moment, King Yan Zhu Di was also looking at the remaining half of the officials in the Beiping Mansion with evil eyes, so that Guo An could see his face.
So, by coincidence, just as Guo An raised his head, he met directly with a young man wearing a purple-red robe, with an angular face, purple-black skin, a thick black beard under his chin, and bright eyes. Make eye contact.
"Is this Zhu Laosi? His appearance can only be said to be average, not that impressive? As for his black beard, he doesn't have that much, and it doesn't match the 'beautiful mustache'..."
Suddenly, Guo An felt a chill in his heart and came back to his senses.
I found that there was a hint of anger in Zhu Laosi's eyes!
Only then did he remember the location and situation he was in now, and he felt panicked and quickly lowered his head.
"It's over!"
