The next day, noon.
Pei Qi was pulled out early and paraded through the streets.
Because it was heard that the person beheaded this time was a high-ranking official in the court, the people of the imperial capital filled the streets early. If there had not been a guard commander with high martial arts skills to clear the way in front, I am afraid that the beheading time would have been delayed.
On both sides of the street, people holding vegetables and eggs pointed at her, and from time to time they would throw things in their hands at her, landing on her face and body.
Pei Qi shook his head and drove away the rotten vegetable leaves hanging above his head. He rolled his originally empty eyes and closed them reflexively because of the sudden orange peel.
"Bah! I thought he was a good official. Since he instigated the prince to poison the emperor and murder the king, he deserves to die!"
"A woman still wants to be an official without looking at how much she weighs. Doesn't this reveal her secret?"
"Don't say that. No matter what, she helped eliminate the bandits in the floating village. It can be regarded as doing something good."
"What a good thing. I just pretended to be a nice guy just to show off to the emperor... I got the emperor's favor, but instead poisoned the emperor. Damn it."
Countless curses echoed in all directions around Pei Qi. She didn't know what kind of charges were written on the thin paper, and she didn't know what kind of charges Rong Qin had laid on her. All of this was just a transaction.
A deal in which her life was used as a bargaining chip in exchange for the Pei family, the mistress and the prince.
In just a few days, her relatives severed ties with her, her reputation no longer existed, and her right and wrong, good and evil in the eyes of the people were also completely messed up.
This is the feeling of being unable to argue.
Rong Qin, you are so cruel.
After passing the last corner of the parade, they reached the guillotine, and Pei Qi's empty eyes came back to reality.
In the crowd, a calm gaze fell on Pei Qi's face. Pei Qi raised his head and looked at him sharply, and was suddenly stunned.
Jiangling maple? He returned to the imperial capital?
When Jiang Lingfeng saw that she had noticed him, he slightly raised the corners of his mouth, put his index finger on his lips, and made a "shh" gesture.
The crowd at the guillotine was mixed, and it was full of Rong Qin's men. Their movements should not be too obvious, otherwise Rong Qin would definitely notice it.
Pei Qi also instantly understood what Jiang Lingfeng meant, quickly turned his head away, and swallowed unconsciously.
She was still worried.
Apart from the Pei family, Jiang Lingfeng was the only one who knew her daughter's identity.
Childhood playmates, teenage best friends, talk about everything.
But even so, his identity was the second highness of the current dynasty who was supposed to travel far away. If Rong Qin found out that he had returned to the imperial capital, he would regard him as a stumbling block and get rid of him quickly.
Is it really worth taking such a risk to save her?
Besides, even if she was rescued and escaped death, what could she do?
Should he live under Rong Qin's pursuit all day long, or should he depend on others and rely on Jiang Lingfeng's power to be an idler?
It would be better to just die and be done with it.
"Click——"
While thinking, Pei Qi's prison car was opened. Officers and soldiers held her arms on the left and right, and led her to the guillotine without giving any room.
The executioner with a machete on top was watching eagerly.
In fact, she has never been afraid of death, but has some regrets.
In this great river and mountain, there are still rebellious officials and traitors.
The world of constant strife has not yet settled down.
When will this prosperous age be as I wish?
Seeing that the time had come, Jiang Lingfeng in the crowd unfolded the folding fan in his hand and jumped up in front of everyone. Everyone saw a handsome young man with silver hair and white clothes, flying to the guillotine like an immortal and standing with his hands behind his back.
Such a scene made all the beauties feel shy.
Jiang Lingfeng waved his long arm, and a cold light suddenly appeared in the fan bone. Sharp silver needles flew out one after another, and struck the officers and soldiers around Pei Qi unexpectedly.
At the same time, countless masked assassins rushed out from all directions and surrounded the guillotine.
The people who were watching became restless because of the sudden change and fled in all directions.
"Oh my God, they are from Yumian Villa!"
Someone in the crowd shouted something, which made the minister who was supervising the execution turn pale with horror. He pointed at Jiang Lingfeng with trembling hands and couldn't believe it: "You... you are the owner of Jade Face Manor!"
Yumian Villa emerged from the sky five years ago and is still firmly on the throne as one of the four major rivers and lakes forces.
And the owner of Jade Face Villa is naturally the handsome young man in white, Jiang Lingfeng.
Everyone knows that the Second Highness of the Dasheng Kingdom, Jiang Lingfeng, has no intention of attending court. He has been missing since he left the country for a trip.
Some people speculate that he was attached to the beautiful scenery of the world and was willing to stay away from the royal family for the rest of his life; others said that he encountered an accident and died an unexpected death. But no one knows that the current Second Highness of Dasheng Kingdom is the owner of the Jade Face Manor in front of him.
Regardless of the shock of the supervisor, the officers and soldiers present were quickly eliminated by Jiang Lingfeng's people.
Pei Qi was also freed from the shackles, but the wounds on her body prevented her from even standing.
In order to prevent Pei Qiliu from having a back-up plan, Rong Qin simply picked on her hamstring, making her a useless person.
Rong Qin thought everything was as expected and he could get rid of Pei Qi smoothly.
Pei Qi stopped struggling and prepared to bid farewell to this world.
It's just that Jiang Lingfeng's appearance was a variable that no one could have guessed.
Seeing that Pei Qi was having difficulty standing, Jiang Lingfeng simply lifted him up and let Pei Qi lean into his arms to save some energy.
Turning his head, Jiang Lingfeng looked at the supervisor with a smile that was determined to win, and said provocatively: "You see clearly, it is me, the owner of the Jade Face Manor, and no one else, who robbed the court today. Go back and tell Rong Qin that this is the case." I will take him away first, and I will definitely visit him someday, so he should not be impatient."
"Well, after all, he is old and his health must not be very good. If he gets sick due to anger, will the gain outweigh the loss?"
puff.
Pei Qi couldn't help laughing.
Well, after all, Rong Qin is seven or eight years older than them, so he is indeed old in comparison.
But, is this guy really not afraid of Rong Qin’s revenge?
Hearing the laughter of the person in his arms, Jiang Lingfeng lowered his head and looked at the sad little face, and rolled his eyes helplessly: "Thank you for being able to laugh. If I had been a little later, you would have been separated. "
Pei Qi stopped smiling and tilted his head slightly: "Yes, it's good to have you."
"Huh, let's have some fun after saving a life." Jiang Lingfeng didn't want to see her heartless look anymore, and he also knew that it was not suitable to stay here for a long time. Rong Qin's people would catch up soon, so he just used Qinggong to take him with him. Pei Qi left the execution ground grandly.
The remaining subordinates are naturally responsible for the aftermath.
The chaotic execution ground has not calmed down for a long time, and Rong Qin, who is far away in the mansion, has his back molars broken.
Jiang, Ling, Feng!
I didn't expect you to dare to come back to the imperial capital and rescue Pei Qi!
Do you really think that, being far away in the world, there is nothing you can do about the truth?
