The old woman became crazy and seemed to be a murderous ghost.
The guards who were originally protecting the emperor saw this scene, quickly drew their swords, and stopped in front of the old woman.
But when the woman looked at the emperor who was so close, and then stared at the coldly shining sword in front of her, her eyes suddenly became sad.
She smiled sadly, and without hesitation, she hit the sword, her miserable face full of determination.
The guard failed to hold back in time, and for a moment, the blood spurted from her neck sprayed all over the ground.
Everyone screamed in fright, and even the emperor stood up from his chair.
"No need to stop me!"
After the emperor gave the order, the guard took back his sword. The old woman had fallen to the ground, but she still crawled towards the emperor's direction.
The blood soaked her clothes, but this was the first time she felt that she was so close to her daughter, so close that she forgot the pain in her body, and a satisfied smile appeared on her face.
Ji Wanrong was really shocked by the old woman's heroic actions. She hurriedly summoned a bandage from the space and wanted to bandage it for her, but she refused.
She raised her head and looked at the emperor, her mouth moving open and closed.
The emperor slowly approached her and heard blood gurgling in her throat. Her hoarse voice seemed to be squeezed out of the blood.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me for being rude. Old lady, I am a pariah. Because of this murderer, everyone around me has died. Even if you want to steal my whole family, I am not afraid..."
She spoke at the top of her lungs, but because of the injury to her neck, her voice was as thin as a mosquito.
Her life was flowing out of her body like her blood.
"I just want to ask, Your Majesty, is my blood the same as yours? Does the blood of the untouchables have temperature and smell? Does the blood of us untouchables flow the same as the blood of the royal family and nobles?"
The old woman's words almost made everyone shed tears, and the scene was so emotional that there were cries outside the door of Jingzhao Mansion.
The emperor looked at the old woman's increasingly pale face, her crazy look, and remained speechless for a moment.
"Your Majesty! Is my daughter a human being? Is my daughter raised by her biological father?"
"Where is she? Even if it's just a corpse, let me know where she is. Will it be cold!?"
After she almost roared, she rolled her eyes and fainted.
The emperor lowered his head, looked at her silently, and then closed his eyes slightly.
"I'm sorry for you."
Ji Wanrong looked at the person who was almost lying in a pool of blood and rushed forward to treat him. At this moment, all the people outside the court knelt down.
Not only the people outside the court, but also the entire street outside Jingzhao Mansion knelt down.
Everyone in the capital is paying attention to today's case, and they know the details of the case through word of mouth.
Almost everyone in the capital walked out of the house, some were elderly people on crutches, or some were young women holding their infant children. Everyone was kneeling in the vast night.
All the people begged for orders.
"Please, Your Majesty, give justice to the common people!"
"Please, Your Majesty, give justice to the common people!"
The sound was so deafening that even Ji Yunyao, who was unconsciously recovering from his injuries on the bed, rolled down from the bed.
She was very confused and called the maid to ask about what was going on outside.
When Ji Yunyao heard the maid's explanation, her whole body froze. She used all her strength to hold the maid's hand and get up from the ground.
By the time she trudged out, her lips had been bitten so hard that blood oozed out.
On the other side of the court, it was still the same tragic scene.
Shi Heng took a deep breath, stepped forward, and knelt down in a pool of blood, letting the old woman's blood stain his ivory robe.
"Your Majesty, a humble minister is not capable enough to hold a big position. I have resigned and returned to my hometown. Please ask Your Majesty to handle this matter."
The emperor stood silently for a long time, listening to the sounds coming and going in his ears, one after another, all calling for injustice.
"It's because I have failed to discipline you properly. In the future, I will issue an edict of sin to everyone in the world."
After the emperor said this, he closed his eyes tightly again, and the words were swirling in his throat, as if it was extremely difficult to even say them.
"As for the King of Chu——"
"The emperor broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people, so he followed the laws of Beili and arrested the king of Chu."
"...Shi Heng, come on...just do whatever you want..."
Every word the emperor spoke was extremely difficult, as if he had exhausted all his strength.
After he said this, he seemed to feel his eyes go dark, and almost stumbled down. Eunuch Gao was so frightened that he hurriedly held his hand.
The emperor sat straight on the chair, with the Queen's cries in his ears. He raised his head slightly and looked at Eunuch Gao, his eyes seemed to be wet.
"Xiao Gaozi, did I do something wrong?"
Listening to the emperor's question, Eunuch Gao didn't dare to say anything else. He just shook his head: "Your Majesty, you are right. You don't know about it at all, and it's not what you thought!"
As soon as the emperor's order came, Shi Heng no longer looked listless and ready to retire and return to his hometown. He stood up from the ground very excitedly.
Then he calmly commanded the people from Dali Temple he brought to take Mo Junfeng into custody.
Ordinary officials, no matter how selfless they are, would not have the guts to directly detain a prince in front of the emperor.
But the person who was interrogating the case was Shi Heng, which was unusual. The people under him listened to Shi Heng's instructions, stepped forward directly, clamped his hands behind his back in front of the emperor, and then brutally beat him His handsome face was pressed to the ground.
This was the first time in his life that Mo Junfeng had been humiliated like this. He was so angry that his eyes turned scarlet, and his dark pupils were fixedly staring at Ji Wanrong's face.
Mo Jiecheng moved slightly, blocking his view.
But the people below didn't care whether he was angry or not. They put handcuffs and shackles on him in accordance with the method of dealing with death row prisoners. Then they lifted Mo Junfeng from the ground and pushed him to the court arrogantly. Walk outside.
The chains collided and made a crisp sound.
The people present saw that His Majesty the King of Chu had become a prisoner at this moment. Everyone knelt on the ground spontaneously, looking at Ji Wanrong and Shi Heng with stars in their eyes.
"God's law is clear! God's law is really clear!" Mr. Bao knelt in front of everyone, his eyes were red and swollen from crying.
After Ji Wanrong bandaged the wound of the old woman at hand, he looked up at Mo Junfeng's thin and lonely back.
The shackles holding the condemned prisoners were probably so heavy that Mo Junfeng's back was bent under the pressure.
He has long lost his dignity.
Everything was settled, and Ji Wanrong finally breathed a sigh of relief at this moment.
As long as Shi Heng can find the moss on the carriage wheels, and then go to Liuhua Lake under Mo Jiecheng's hint and find the bones buried underground, everything will come to light.
But who would have thought that at this moment, a loud female voice came from outside the courtroom.
"Mom, my daughter is here..."
This female voice caught everyone present by surprise.
