C1 He Was in Prison
"Hua - Hua -" The crisp sound of metal clashing against iron chains came from the end of the street, drowning out the pouring rain. The entire Lin'an City seemed to have instantly become deathly silent.
The surrounding passersby followed the sound and saw that at the end of the road, a woman with unkempt clothes and unkempt hair, wearing heavy shackles, was walking with difficulty.
She wore a thick chain around her neck and was dragged by the soldiers to the chopping table. Her bare feet were worn down by the bluestone road, and long traces of blood could be seen.
"It was she who seduced the Crown Prince, causing him to be locked up." The sound of small discussions surged through the air like ripples.
"It's her! Isn't she the daughter of the current Prime Minister?"
"Don't you know? She is Prime Minister Lin's adopted daughter. In fact, her real identity is..." The passerby lowered his voice, "Princess."
The gossip seemed to have exploded into a spark. On the surface of the calm surface of the dark tide, someone picked up a rock and threw it at her.
The rain mixed with blood rolled down Lin Suiyue's hair and onto her dry and bloody lips. She lowered her eyes numbly. Her ragged clothes cut across her chest, revealing half of it... She stood in front of the chopping table and did not dodge or dodge.
"The prisoner knows his crime." A gorgeous and cold voice came from above, carrying a lazy alienation, causing the crowd to be slightly restless.
Hearing the sound, Lin Suiyue raised her eyelids and looked at the officials on the monitoring platform from afar. The curtain covered the platform in a half circle. The surrounding officials were all purple and black official robes. They sat in different positions and postures.
The one who spoke was Central Secretary, who was the most popular person in the court.
As the young man who had the power to rule the court, Central Secretary Nan Ang was the ideal lover of many girls.
At this moment, he was sitting in his seat. His purple and black silk robe was solemn and solemn. His long hair was tied up with a jade crown. He exuded an aura of nobility from his bones. No one dared to look him in the eye.
Lin Suiyue silently shifted her gaze away, and her gaze fell on the middle-aged man on the other side. He was her father, and also the person who had personally put her to death. He was the prime minister of the court, Lin Hua.
"His Excellency asked you a question!" The executioner suddenly kicked Lin Suiyue's leg and pressed her down into the muddy rain.
Lin Suiyue's blood red eyes stared at Lin Hua. With a compassionate light, she turned a deaf ear to Nan Ang's question.
"Kill her! Kill her!"
"Scumbag!"
"The remnants of the previous dynasty!"
... ""
The cries of the surrounding people were louder than the waves. Prime Minister Lin Hua had never paid attention to them. He did not even raise his head to look at her.
Lin Suiyue bit her thin lips and blood filled her thin jaw. She didn't believe... she didn't believe that her father personally sent her to the guillotine! He loved her, loved her, treated her like a treasure.
Seeing that Lin Suiyue did not say anything, Nan Ang narrowed his eyes. His handsome face was as cold as ice. He asked coldly, "Do you know your crime?"
Lin Suiyue did not seem to hear him. She still looked straight at Lin Hua. Suddenly, she said word by word, "Ten years of Shaohua. Father brought me to the temple outside the country. At that time, Suiyue was one year old. Fifteen years of Shaohua. Father taught me to use knowledge to make Suiyue take Wai State as her home. Suiyue used the word loyalty on her wrist. To show her loyalty, at that time, Suiyue was five years old."
She tore off her clothes and exposed her thin wrist to the eyes of the officials. On her white skin, there was a word loyalty on her wrist. Everyone sighed and gradually calmed down.
Lin Suiyue took a deep breath and shouted loudly. "25 years of Shaohua. Suiyue used herself as bait and worked together with her father to design a killing formation to lure the hundreds of survivors from the previous dynasty to kill them all. At that time, Suiyue was 15 years old."
"In the 28 years of Shaohua, my father was the future of his career. Yu Qian wrote a book about Suiyue and revealed Lin Suiyue and Princess's identity to the public. My father was rewarded with a hundred taels of gold and a hundred acres of land. His official position rose continuously and he became the Prime Minister. He was appointed to assist the Crown Prince, and Suiyue was sentenced to be beheaded. At that time, Suiyue was eighteen. " The more she spoke, the more serious her words became. Tears hung in her eyes and the corners of her lips sank slightly.
Prime Minister Lin Hua's beard trembled slightly. He looked at her with some excitement, but he still clenched his fists tightly without replying.
"Prime Minister, do you have anything to say to the prisoner?" Nan Ang looked at Lin Hua indifferently and humbly asked for advice.
Everyone knew that in the court, the Central Secretary faction led by Nan An had always been on par with the Prime Minister's faction. Now that Lin Suiyue had fallen into the hands of the Lin Family's mortal enemy, there was no way for her to live, and she would undoubtedly die.
Lin Hua's lips trembled violently for a moment before he finally said four words, "Sinful woman... deserve to be beheaded!"
With a "Zheng" sound, Lin Suiyue's heart shattered like a mirror. She staggered back a step and her heart ached as if it was being twisted by a knife. Ha... Haha...
Instead of being angry, she laughed. Tears fell from her eyes as she looked at this man who had raised her as a chess piece in the name of kindness. He found the right time to establish the crown prince and gave her away with righteousness. She was so foolish that she planned for him and went through life and death several times. He had really put in a lot of effort for the sake of his career.
A mocking smile suddenly appeared on Nan Ang's lips. He extended his slender fingers and threw down the Beheading Token. He coldly said a word, "Behead."
All the officials were slightly agitated.
"Kneel!" The executioner kicked Lin Suiyue's thigh and raised his saber.
Lin Suiyue's head was pressed against her thumb and index finger. Her eyes were red as she stared at Lin Hua, "I am guilty of taking Wai State as my home. I am guilty of recognizing Lin Hua as my father. I am guilty of not knowing what to do! If there is a next life, I will not let you go even if I become a ghost. "
The large blade fell mercilessly.
At almost the same time, a few invisible sharp auras swept through the air. A sharp sword pierced through the executioner's head with a whoosh.
"There's an assassin!" The guard suddenly cried out in alarm.
After that, an even denser rain of arrows shot down from the white brick houses, covering the sky like an airtight net.
"There's an ambush. Someone is robbing the prisoners!"
The officials fled in panic. Lin Hua was escorted out of the platform by the crowd to hide.
The man in black rushed to the platform and picked Lin Suiyue up. "Let's go!"
He dared to snatch her from his palm!
Nan Ang's handsome face sank and he jumped up from his seat. Almost at the same time, he grabbed Lin Suiyue's shoulder with the man in black.
The man in black swung his palm towards Nan Ang's face. Nan Ang dodged the fatal blow nimbly. Who would have thought that the arrow shot from the air would accurately hit Lin Suiyue's heart.
Since the man in black and Nan Ang each grabbed one of Lin Suiyue's shoulders, as long as they did not let go, Lin Suiyue would become a live target for the arrow.
At the critical moment, Nan Ang suddenly narrowed his eyes and suddenly let go.
The black-clothed man also attacked at the same time and kicked Nan Ang's shoulder. Nan Ang took advantage of the situation and went up. The carving knife in his sleeve grazed the black-clothed man's neck.
