C108 Part1

....

Before the starting time, the execution ground at the front gate of the Palace was overcrowded in a large area with a large number of people and discussions flooded like a tide.

Compared with the previous execution to the public, the scale was even more spectacular.

The Imperial Palace Guards and the Elite Soldiers of the Capital Defense Department worked hard to maintain order to prevent people from getting in trouble.

On the monitoring stage, the Minister of the Ministry of Crimes and Justice, and the secretary of the Dali Temple, Master Gu Huai, were already sitting there, waiting for His Royal Highness and the Royal King to arrive.

They looked at each other with a worried look on their faces.

'Why did the Royal King and His Highness suddenly capture someone from the Southern Yue Kingdom?'

Early in the morning, as soon as they had arrived at the Court, they received an official document from the Royal Palace, which was indeed the seal of the Royal King.

They had hurriedly executed Master Wan Fang and Master Wang Tao to the public, and within three days, they were also hurriedly executing someone of the Southern Yue Kingdom, making everyone unprepared and in a chaos.

However, the Royal King had always acted like that:

Even when he wasn't moving, he was like a pool of stagnant water.

The hour was approaching, and the Royal King, His Highness, and the prisoner had not arrived yet, and they had to make sure there would be no accidents.

The people were eagerly looking forward to the execution of the mysterious man from a foreign country, to see what the person looked like and whether it was very different from ordinary people.

At this time, someone shouted:

"Here they come!"

With a single sound, tens of thousands of people looked over, and the Elite Soldiers from the Ministry of Defense and Military Forces slowly proceeded, clearing the way, and escorting the prisoner's carriage of the Ministry of Justice and Crimes.

There was a man wearing a gorgeous golden robe in the prisoner's carriage.

The golden color was extremely dazzling in to the sun, attracting all eyes, and the crowd's discussion became even more raging.

However, the foreigner prisoner wore a golden mask, and they couldn't see his face at all.

The people of the Imperial Capital were disappointed not being able to see what this exotic foreigner looked like.

The Minister of the Ministry of Crimes and Justice and the Dali Temple Secretary Gu Huai hurriedly led a group of subordinates to greet them, but they saw that only the Crown Prince and Shen Zhiyan got off the carriage, and there was no trace of the Royal King.

'Where is the Regent?'

Murong Ci strode towards the Supervisory Platform, and Shen Zhiyan followed behind.

The officers and soldiers escorted the foreigner prisoner of the Southern Yue Kingdom to the center of the execution ground.

At this time, the sun was venomous and the heat wave was soaring.

Because there were too many people watching the execution ground, it was even more sweaty.

But no one left, still discussing enthusiastically.

The glorious sunlight shone, and the huge guillotine gave out a cold white light, which made the people's scalp numb.

The foreigner prisoner knelt on the ground with his hands handcuffed, and the golden mask flowing with stinging golden awns, reflecting the sunlight.

Murong Ci's icy gaze swept away, wondering how many people of the Southern Yue Kingdom were hidden in the crowd...

The Dali Temple Secretary, Gu Huai, and Shen Zhiyan stood behind her, as she raised her hand, and the Ghost Guard, Wuying went forward and bowed to listen.

"Is everything ready?"

Her bright eyes were dazzling with a harsh glow.

"Everything is ready,"

he replied.

"Then it's time, let the execution begin."

She stood up and gave a sign.

The people of the Imperial Capital suddenly calmed down from their tense discussions, as they watched the two executioners raise the blazing guillotines, and the two officers and elite soldiers escorted the prisoner to the chopping board under the guillotine, making his waist face the sharp guillotines.

Many people held their breaths, some covered their eyes, and some turned their heads away.

Shen Zhiyan tensed up suddenly:

if anyone attempted to snatch away the prisoner, he would protect His Royal Highness up close.

Murong Ci looked forward to the next scene, and her eagle-like eyes swept back and forth.

The prisoner lay down, unable to move, and the two executioners were holding the guillotine, ready to press the guillotine together.

The bloody scene was about to occur, and the people were full of expectation, but half of them dared not watch it, because the execution by waist cut was way more cruel than the head decapitation.

The execution by waist cut was done by cutting from the waist of a person and because the organs of a person were above the waist, as the waist and body was cut off in two, they would still be sober and feel the pain and torture of being cut in half, and it would take a while before they died.

Indeed, this was the most terrifying and tragic execution:

The tortured person would clearly feel the painful torture, as their blood would slowly drain, and their mind would gradually get blurred.

It was a cruel and terrible process of experiencing death, and just thinking about it, made people shiver with cold sweat all over.

Just before the guillotine was pressed, two cold arrows flew silently and pierced the bodies of the two executioners.

Some of the officers and soldiers around the execution ground shouted heartbreakingly:

"There are assassins!"

Arrows hit the sky like a storm, and many officers and soldiers fell to the ground and died.

Murong Ci was smiling meaningfully,

'Very good, here we go!'
