Surprise! The boss of the last days, reborn before the engagement

Following his order, the executioner, holding a large knife, walked towards the guillotine step by step. A flash of despair flashed across Chu Yichen's eyes, but then he became calm again. He closed his eyes, as if accepting the judgment of fate.

The executioner raised his knife and slashed it. A flash of cold light passed by, followed by the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground. On the guillotine, there was blood everywhere. Chu Yichen's life ended there.

There were discussions among the crowd. Someone said indignantly: "It's what he deserves! People like him should be beheaded!"

Some people sighed and said, "It would be great if our Xuantian Kingdom didn't have these corrupt officials!"

More people are lamenting the difficult lives of ordinary people.

"Yes! We the people are having the hardest time."

On the second floor of the teahouse not far away, Chu Yiyi sat quietly by the window, her eyes passing through the crowd and falling on the figure that had lost its life.

"Ashes to ashes, dust to dust..."

Chu Yiyi murmured softly, as if she was praying for Chu Yichen and herself. She stood up and said to Qiluo and Qiuxin beside her.

"Let's go back to the Princess's Mansion! Mother and Uncle Chu have already returned to Jiangnan. They have left this place of trouble and should be able to live a peaceful and happy life."

Qiluo and Qiuxin nodded in agreement. They knew that although the young lady was in a complicated mood at the moment, she had already made a decision. Qiluo comforted her gently.

"Miss, don't worry! Madam and Mr. Chu are both good people, they will definitely be happy."

Qiu Xin: "Yes! Miss, let's go! There are still many things waiting for us to do in the Princess's Mansion!"

Chu Yiyi: "Let's go! Back to the Princess' Mansion."

It is said that in the imperial study of the palace, the emperor was reviewing memorials!

Li Defu quickly came before the emperor and knelt down to salute.

"Your servant pays homage to His Majesty. May the Emperor live long and long."

The emperor looked at Li Defu and raised his right hand.

"No need to be polite, just stand up! Have Chu Yichen and his nine clans been beheaded?"

Li Defu stood up and said respectfully, "I thank the emperor for his grace. The executioner just came to report that they have all been identified and beheaded."

Emperor: "Well, that's good... If you do something wrong, you should pay the corresponding price. Without rules, there will be no order.

Oh, I remember now, have you found the 50,000 soldiers that the counterfeit kept in Qingfeng Mountain outside the city? Have you subdued them?"

Li Defu wiped the non-existent sweat from his forehead.

"This servant doesn't know either! General Gu didn't come to the palace!"

At this moment, Eunuch Liu's voice rang out in time.

"Your Majesty, General Gu Chenming requests to see you."

The emperor finally smiled and said, "Summon him to see me. I'm looking for him!"

Gu Chenming walked quickly to the emperor and knelt down to pay his respects.

"Your Majesty, long live the Emperor!"

The emperor raised his right hand and gave a light support.

"My dear, please stand up. How is it going? How is the task I gave you?"

Gu Chenming didn't dare to stand up at all. He knelt on the ground with a trembling voice.

“Your Majesty, I am incompetent… The troops had been taken away by someone else… When I went there, I only found traces of the army’s life.

I don't know who has such great ability to subdue 50,000 troops. This is a threat to our Xuantian Kingdom! And it's so close to our imperial city."

Upon hearing this, the emperor was furious and looked at Gu Chenming with anger, shaking all over.

"How dare you! Who dares to stir up trouble under my nose? Come here! Where is the Royal Qingyun Team?"

Captain Qingyun: "I am here to see you, my master. Please give me your orders."
