The servants working in the Princess's Mansion have all been trained to be obedient, quiet, strong in execution, swift and resolute, and incredibly fast.
After Xie Xuan heard the instructions, he didn't ask any more questions. He received the order and went to call the guards.
Three hundred soldiers from the princess's mansion gathered at the gate in an instant, waiting for Su Fengyi's order.
Xie Xuan led a snow-white Dayuan horse and said:
"Your Highness, please mount your horse."
Su Fengyi, who was still looking for a carriage at the door, was suddenly confused.
She can't ride a horse.
The book's setting for the eldest princess is that she was taught riding and archery by the founding emperor since she was a child. When she travels, she always wears riding clothes and carries a bow and arrow. She only rides a horse and does not like to ride in a carriage.
So she should not only be very good at riding a horse, but also be able to shoot an arrow through the air from a hundred paces away, and be very good at riding and shooting.
But when it comes to archery, Su Fengyi, who came through, is even worse.
The character is about to collapse.
While Su Fengyi was hesitating, Xie Xuan had already handed her the reins.
The maid Dangui skillfully helped her equip herself with a sword and bow and arrow, just like the princess did every time she went out.
Is this horse something I must ride?
Su Fengyi was in a difficult situation and had to take over the reins.
Unexpectedly, the moment she got the reins, a very mysterious force suddenly flowed through her body. Before she could think about it, she had subconsciously climbed onto the horse.
The movements were natural and smooth, and no one noticed anything unusual.
Was it the original body's muscle memory that came into play? Or was it the setting in the book that was at work?
It’s better not to be a book setting!
As the villain in this book, Su Fengyi cannot compare her setting with the protagonist.
In the book setting, what is the most powerful and unsolvable thing that makes even the most powerful villain have to admit defeat?
That is naturally the halo of the protagonist.
If the male protagonist, a vassal king, possesses a powerful weapon like the protagonist's halo, then anyone who touches him will die.
As a villain, it would be very disadvantageous for Su Fengyi to go against the male protagonist who has the aura of a protagonist.
The best plan for now is to rescue General Shen as soon as possible, nip the male protagonist's rebellion in the bud, and not give the protagonist a chance to appear.
What kind of protagonist is it if he can't even appear on the stage? He's just a passerby, and a passerby doesn't have the aura of a protagonist.
The logic is sound, perfect.
Thinking of this, Su Fengyi quickened his horse, and, escorted by his personal guards, a group of several hundred people rushed to the execution ground.
The eldest princess always rides a horse in the streets in an arrogant and domineering manner, making quite a noise, and the people in the capital are used to it.
As soon as they heard the noise on the street near the Princess's Mansion, pedestrians and vendors all avoided it, fearing that they would run into this Rakshasa. Otherwise, even if they were injured, disabled or killed, they would just consider themselves unlucky.
The journey was smooth and unimpeded until they were almost at the execution ground, when suddenly a group of people ran towards them in panic, shouting:
"Killing! Killing!"
From the execution ground came the shrill and fierce shouts of the eunuch supervising the execution:
"What are you still standing there for? Are you waiting for the prisoner to be kidnapped? Kill the prisoner! Do it now!"
Several masked men in black fought with the guards at the execution ground. The executioner raised his butcher knife under the scolding of the eunuch supervising the execution.
It was obvious that some colleagues also came to rob the execution ground and beat Su Fengyi to it.
The men in black and the guards suffered casualties. Because of the deaths, the people who were originally watching the execution dodged and ran, pushing and shoving each other, and screamed as they rolled towards Su Fengyi's team.
Along with the crowd, there were also wine, food, and all kinds of drinks that fell along the way and were trampled into a mess by the crowd.
These were brought voluntarily by the people to see General Shen off.
Before a prisoner is beheaded, the executioner will usually allow his family to send him some food and drink. After eating the last meal, the prisoner will die well and be ready for his reincarnation.
The Shen family has been guarding Xuanfu since Taizu. Three generations of the family have guarded the border for the country and have a very high reputation among the people.
Justice is in the hearts of the people. The Shen family was wronged, so it is only natural that the people spontaneously sent food and drink to General Shen to see him off.
Because of this, although the eunuch in charge of the executioner kept yelling at the executioner to do it, the executioner raised his butcher knife and put it down again, put it down and raised it up again, hesitating and refusing to do it.
The executioner was obviously delaying, as he didn't want to be the criminal who killed a loyal and honest person. If he delayed any longer, the person might be kidnapped, and then it wouldn't be his fault.
Of course, the executioner didn't dare to delay too obviously, so he pretended to be stupid and said perfunctorily:
"Eunuch Gao, this won't work. It's not even three quarters past noon yet. If we execute him now, we won't be disobeying the order. Otherwise, let's wait a little longer..."
In order to avoid a pair of men in black and the guards at the execution ground who were fighting over, Eunuch Gao had hurriedly hidden under the table.
After hearing what the executioner said, Eunuch Gao was so angry that he wanted to ascend to heaven on the spot.
His godfather, the Ninth Prince of the East Factory, said that he must take the head of General Shen today.
If he was really kidnapped alive, the factory owner might want Eunuch Gao's head.
Eunuch Gao risked sticking half his head out from under the table, threw the signature token to the ground, and said viciously:
"The moment the token lands, the execution will begin immediately. If you dare to procrastinate or delay, I will chop you off too!"
The executioner had no choice but to bow to the prisoner, General Shen:
"General, I'm sorry, I'll wait on you on your way..."
When the scene was in chaos, General Shen Quan seemed oblivious to the chaos around him.
Shen Quan, courtesy name Hongxian, is 28 years old. He was formerly a second-rank general of the state, and is now a prisoner.
Although he was wearing prison clothes and shackles, and his appearance was shabby, he looked calm, with his back straight, and he was drinking leisurely from a jar of fine wine that a white-haired old man brought to his mouth.
He was so calm as if he was not at the execution ground but at home.
After finishing the jar of fine wine and satisfying his craving for alcohol, Shen Quan felt extremely happy and laughed:
"Good wine! Wonderful!"
Then he said to the trembling executioner:
"Come on, little brother, thank you. Hold the knife steady and give me a quick kill."
The executioner was in agony and looked sad. He raised the butcher knife again and was about to execute the man, but he heard a whistling sound in his ears. A feather arrow flew through the air and pierced his hair.
The executioner subconsciously touched the feather arrow on his head. He was stunned at first, then he thought, although only the hair was injured, it is still an injury, right?
It's not that we don't want to do our job as ordered, it's that we were injured by stray arrows and can't do it!
With sufficient reason, the executioner immediately howled:
"Ouch, ouch, ouch, I'm hurt! I'm bleeding! I'm dying!"
With a cry of "ouch", the knife was thrown away.
He uttered two "ouch" sounds and closed his eyes.
He cried out "ouch" three times and fell to the ground pretending to be dead.
Seeing that the executioner was so useless, Eunuch Gao gritted his teeth in anger, but he had no choice but to lie down under the table, looking around, and finally pointed at a young eunuch and said:
"You, go and kill General Shen!"
"Ah? Me, me?"
The young eunuch who was called was about to cry. He picked up the knife from the ground and dragged it on the ground, but he hesitated and dared not act.
Eunuch Gao was urging him to hurry up, so the young eunuch mustered up his courage and came closer. Just as he raised his knife, the general looked at him and smiled at him.
General Shen was a very powerful person, so it would have been better if he didn't smile. But his ordinary smile frightened the little eunuch who met his eyes. His legs went weak and his whole body was shaking like a sieve. How could he carry out his actions?
Even if he was asked to kill General Shen, he would not dare to do so even if General Shen was tied up tightly with handcuffs and shackles.
Su Fengyi, who was riding a horse, saw the young eunuch raising his knife, and shot another arrow, which hit the young eunuch's wrist.
The young eunuch screamed and fell to the ground. Not only could he not hold the knife, but he was also knocked unconscious by the heavy knife that slipped out of his hand.
Through these two arrows, Su Fengyi confirmed that she could shoot so accurately, and the setting of the princess's ability to hit the target from a hundred paces away was indeed working.
Eunuch Gao was enraged by the two arrows. He hid under the table, looked around, and kept shouting:
"Rebellion! Rebellion! Where did these thieves come from again?"
After a closer look, he found that the person who came was actually the eldest princess, and she brought hundreds of people with her. He was immediately overjoyed:
"Heaven will not let me die! With the princess here, Shen Quan will definitely die today! It's safe!"
Eunuch Gao rushed out from under the table as if he had found a savior, rolling and crawling, crying and laughing:
"Your Highness, Your Highness, help, help!"
