The scorching sun was in the sky, splashing the world with its dazzling sunlight, no cloud in the sky, and the ground was dazzling.
Even with the scorching sun and the scorching heat, the Imperial Capital was still full of people.
It was about noon, and there was a large crowd of people in front of the front gate of the Palace because this was the place where the execution of the criminals would be shown to the public.
For decades, the Northern Yan hadn't had such a shocking event as public execution announcement.
Naturally, the people wouldn't want to miss to see with their own eyes this extremely cruel, bloody and topical event.
Most of the people brought their whole family there, dragging their mouths, even if they were sweating profusely, they would have to wait until that important moment.
This time, hundreds of Imperial Guards were dispatched to maintain order and to keep the onlookers outside.
Gradually, more and more people discussed.
"Do you know what are the heinous crimes that Master Wan Fang and Master Wang Tao committed?
This public execution is too cruel."
"Lower your voice, if the Officials and Soldiers hear you, you might be beheaded."
"They must have committed an unforgivable crime, just like a crime punished with decapitation and five-horse splitting, like treason or worse."
"But Master Wan Fang and Wang Tao were just small Officials of the Military Supervisor Facility.
How could it be possible to rebel?"
"Who knows? I heard their whole Clan, with hundreds of people from the nine generations, will be wiped off."
"If you don't cut the grass and remove the roots, it is inevitable that someone will come back for revenge in the future."
"Do you think the Imperial Court judged it wrong?
If you kill someone with wrong assumptions, wouldn't so many people die unjustly?"
"Even if it's a mistake, do you think the Imperial Court would admit it?
Besides, Master Wan Fang and Master Wang Tao were at the top of the Military Supervisor Facility.
Wouldn't their crimes be related to it?
Just imagine what their crimes could be."
Someone felt awe-inspiring after hearing this.
The people who were talking were in piles and clumps, swaying like a tide.
Some people watched and listened to the discussion with insight, and when they mentioned it, many people understood how damn Master Wan Fang and Master Wang Tao were, and they all fell silent.
The Soldiers cleared the way, and the people let out a passage and saw a glamorous carriage slowly driving in and stop.
Everyone looked forward to seeing the peerless style of the Prince Regent.
One person came out and stood proudly on the shaft of the carriage, looking down at all beings, with a squinting posture and a terrifying demeanor, as if he was the King of thousands of people and the Master of all living beings.
The common people saw from a distance the beauty of the man who excelled the world and the man's breathtaking arrogance.
Longing for his figure, most people's eyes were fanatical and worshipping.
He was the god-like man who saved the Northern Yan Country, that could not only protect everyone's family and defend the Country, but also administer the Country and make it prosperous and peaceful.
Suddenly, there was another person beside the Regent, who seemed to be the Straw-Bag Prince.
The Crown Prince was handsome and elegant, with bright eyes and white teeth, and a good skin.
Although his appearance was beautiful, he was still a Straw-Bag Prince after all!
With the Regent standing next to him, the difference was evident:
one was the earth and the other was the sky, which was totally incomparable.
When Murong Ci saw him get out of the carriage and walk towards the execution ground, she followed.
There were so many people who came to watch today, and the crowds were so tight that they almost couldn't get in.
In the middle of the execution ground, there was the executioner that was holding a big knife, and patiently waiting for the prisoners to arrive.
