Chapter 198: Execution? Endless entanglement! [Subscribe]
Sudden incident
Wei Hong obviously also noticed something was wrong!
He narrowed his eyes and became alert subconsciously. He couldn't help but ask the middle-aged executioner next to him: "Uncle Liu, what's going on? Aren't they sent to the Jiaofangsi?"
"These are the wives and concubines in the Sixth Prince's mansion!" The middle-aged executioner reminded.
Wei Hong immediately understood the deep meaning of it.
If it were the wives and daughters of ordinary criminals, they would definitely be sent to the Jiaofangsi as slaves.
But who dares to send the wives and concubines in the Sixth Prince's mansion to the Jiaofangsi? Not to mention that it is easy to be criticized as insulting royal relatives, and secondly, no one dares to let these women really receive guests.
In addition, most of them have extraordinary identities and are constantly involved with the families of important officials in the court!
If they are humiliated at will, they will definitely be criticized, so it is better to behead them in public, so that there will be fewer dirty disputes.
But they have special identities!
It is not so easy to behead them.
Wei Hong had obviously noticed that the malicious gazes from the audience were gradually increasing, as if as soon as his butcher knife fell, someone would dare to take his life.
"Haha!"
Wei Hong was not panicked at all.
He prepared slowly, first taking a sip of strong liquor to spray away the blood on the ghost-headed sword, and then dragging a woman directly to the guillotine.
"I'm sorry!" Wei Hong said expressionlessly.
"Haha!" The woman said coldly and contemptuously: "Take away your dirty hands, are you a stinky bug worthy of touching me?"
"If it was before, I really was not worthy of touching you noble ladies." Wei Hong raised his eyebrows and teased: "But now, even if I peel you off and behead you in public, no one will say a word, believe it?"
"You dare?"
The woman was so angry that her heart was heaving up and down, and her pretty face had already flushed with anger.
"Don't worry!" Wei Hong said casually: "If someone robs the execution ground later, you may still have a chance to survive. You can try to kill me then."
"Haha!"
The woman sneered and said no more.
But there was a hint of hope in her eyes.
Wei Hong smiled and raised the knife silently.
Laugh, it's more interesting to laugh more.
It will be more comfortable to have hope and then despair.
"Shua!"
When the knife fell!
The remnants of the Sixth Prince hidden under the stage finally couldn't help it. A loud shout sounded below, and then a large number of black-clothed people appeared from all directions of the execution ground.
"You dare, bastard?"
"Kill, save the princes and princesses!"
"Kill!"
"Puff puff puff!"
The surroundings were full of swords and shadows, and many soldiers of the patrol camp were beheaded on the spot. Hundreds of martial arts masters emerged from around the execution ground, scaring the surrounding people to flee in panic.
In an instant!
Seven or eight locust stones were shot at Wei Hong from all directions.
At the same time, various hidden weapons were also shot at Deng Haisheng and others. It was obvious that the remnants of the Sixth Prince hated these executioners so much that they were merciless.
In a flash!
Wei Hong snorted coldly and kept his knife moving. He cut off the woman's head in a flash, leaving her eyes full of hope, excitement, reluctance, shock, and then death with eyes wide open, as if she had just dreamed.
And then he shook his body!
The ghost-headed sword in his hand danced with amazing knife light.
"Ding Ding Ding!"
Seven or eight locust stones that hit him were either dodged or knocked away. None of them could hurt him at all.
Even the few locust stones he knocked away accurately intercepted the darts shot at Deng Haisheng, saving him easily.
"Master Deng, hide well!" Wei Hong reminded in a low voice.
"You should get out of the way too!"
Deng Haisheng rolled and crawled to the side to avoid the disaster, his face showing relief and horror after surviving the disaster.
He knew very well that if Wei Hong had not taken action just now, he would have been in trouble.
Didn't you see that the other executioners had already fallen in a pool of blood?
The soldiers of the patrol camp around the execution ground suffered heavy casualties, and the scene was bloody and terrifying. It can be seen that in order to capture the princes and concubines in the execution ground, the remnants of the Sixth Prince's party probably put all their remaining strength into it.
"Hehe!"
Wei Hong sneered and stepped aside to avoid getting involved.
This turmoil was clearly a conspiracy set up by the new emperor. Whether the Sixth Prince was willing or not, beheading his wives and concubines in the street would force the other party to send people out to rescue them, otherwise how could he raise his head in the future?
It is rumored that the Sixth Prince was not at peace after escaping from the Divine Capital, and he was still flirting with several other rebel kings. How could the new emperor sleep peacefully in this way? It would be strange if I didn't take the opportunity to teach him a lesson!
This time on the execution ground was destined to fail.
The Sixth Prince fled the capital like a lost dog, and he couldn't even save his own wives and concubines. It was probably a heavy blow to those who depended on him, so the new emperor must have deployed heavy troops around him.
However, in order to lure out all the thieves!
These ambushes naturally did not take action immediately, but let the situation become serious, and let the soldiers of the patrol camp suffer heavy casualties.
Seeing that the people in black were about to rush to the execution ground, Wei Hong couldn't help but frowned. He naturally didn't want to have a head-on conflict with these people.
After all, the contest between the new emperor and the Sixth Prince, why should he work hard?
But the remnants of the Sixth Prince's party obviously hated him as an executioner. After all, the head of a prince's wife was still on the ground. How could they turn a blind eye to it? Naturally, they wanted to hack him to death immediately.
If the new emperor's ambushes took action later!
Wei Hong must have to confront these people.
"Two in the Refining Organ Realm, seven in the Refining Bone Realm, and the rest are all in the Refining Blood Realm and Refining Skin Realm. Wow, it's luxurious!"
"But if I want to leave, I'm afraid they can't stop me!"
Wei Hong was full of confidence and not afraid at all!
On the surface, he was just a butcher and executioner in the Refining Skin Realm. If he really wanted to kill people everywhere, he would definitely cause more trouble. It would be better to find a chance to escape.
But just as he was about to withdraw!
The ambush troops arranged by the new emperor finally came out.
The mighty golden armored imperial guards blocked the streets in all directions, and they shot with strong bows and crossbows without any greeting.
"Puff puff puff!"
One after another, the men in black fell in a pool of blood.
These are all the special crossbows for the imperial guards. It is said that they are made of rare materials and monster bones. The production method is the highest secret of the Great Zhou. Each one has the power to easily kill the peak of the Refining Bone Realm. When they are gathered together, even the Refining Organ Realm will be terrified.
With such a powerful weapon, the imperial guards didn't even need to do it themselves!
They only needed to aim and shoot continuously to kill most of the thieves, and the rest were just struggling to survive.
At this time!
The master hiding in the dark, the remnants of the Sixth Prince, finally couldn't help but move.
This was a skinny hunchbacked old woman with a cane in her hand. She came out of a nearby teahouse like a ghost and rushed to a charming female prisoner below the execution ground without hesitation!
Obviously, this person was their target!
The other female prisoners were still just abandoned pawns!
