Murong Yu took a seat at the supervision chair in front of the execution stage, and Murong Ci sat aside, to accompany him to watch the "good show".
At noon, he gave a signal to the Minister of the Justice and Criminal Department and the Secretary of the Dali Temple, and then the two ordered the guards to bring the prisoners up.
Not long after, everyone saw two prisoners being escorted by Officials and Soldiers and stepping onto the execution stage.
The daylight was dazzling, and reflected on the silver light of the big knives in the hands of the executioners, piercing the eyes of the people.
In fact, although Master Wan Fang was already dead, he still needed to be shown to the public for execution.
While Master Wang Tao, who was still alive, had already lost his thoughts, and his eyes were so hollow that there was no vitality.
The summer was scorching, and there was no wind.
Many people endured sweat and waited for the bloody moment.
Murong Ci glanced inadvertently at the audience and spotted the handsome white figure of Shen Zhiyan among the onlookers.
However, Murong Shi stood beside him.
As soon as Murong Shi saw His Highness looking at herself, she couldn't help being overjoyed.
Murong Ci quickly retracted her gaze, wondering about the strange combination of the two being there.
She turned her head to look at the man sitting in the superintendent seat beside her.
At this moment, Murong Yu's handsome face was like a snowy field, cold and biting.
With the scorching sun in the sky, she also felt hot, and suddenly thought:
'Will the Young Master in Golden Clothes come to watch this event in secret?'
Her gaze searched among the black crowd, but of course, even if he did come to watch, he'd definitely disguise himself.
The Ministry of Justice and Criminal Department stood in front of the people of the Imperial Capital, and then raised his voice to announce:
"Master Wan Fang and Master Wang Tao committed Capital Crimes of treason, and their crimes cannot be forgiven.
Today, the two will be shown to public execution and their nine generations will also be punished.
I hope everyone will take this as a warning and keep themselves safe."
The audience fell silent.
The Officials who stood there as onlookers bowed their heads in respect.
Murong Ci's heart fluctuated, and the deterrence of the public execution on the Civil and Military Officials was beyond doubt.
The Minister of the Justice and Criminal Department indicated to Murong Yu that noon had come, and Murong Yu gave a neat signal to the executioners, with a cold face.
After waiting for a long time, the two executioners slowly raised their swords.
The cold light of the swords was like snow, flashing like a meteor!
A puff of blood flew like a rainbow!
Two heads rolled to the ground, and the two prisoners immediately fell to the ground.
No young women and the faint-hearted dared not watch this cruel scene.
Then, the Officials and Soldiers picked up the bloody heads and hung them above the wooden frame.
They will be shown to the public for three days to demonstrate deterrence.
Murong Ci thought to herself that this scene and those two heads would become a recurring midnight nightmare for many people.
