Over the past half month, there have been constant disturbances in the imperial court, but the weather has been surprisingly good, with the sun shining brightly every day.

It is still a sunny day today, and the sky is so clear that there is not even a cloud in the sky, it is pure blue.

The Caishikou was crowded with people watching the excitement, just as lively as the day when the Wei family army returned to the city.

It’s just that the Wei family was in great glory that day, but today the Wei family is kneeling on the ground at the execution ground.

"I never thought that the former crown prince was killed by Wei Tiankuang in collusion with Northern Qi. Although it has been more than ten years since that incident, I still vaguely remember how good the former crown prince was."

"Yes, I didn't believe it when they said the former crown prince was colluding with Northern Qi. The Wei family was in control at the time, and anyone who spoke up for the former crown prince would be arrested and beaten."

"Go to hell! Traitor!"

Someone shouted, and the people followed suit.

"Traitor!"

"kill him!"

Eggs and rotten vegetable leaves were thrown onto the execution platform.

In a private room facing the window of a restaurant in the distance, Cheng Jiuyuan and Jiang Miaoduan were standing in front of the window.

Jiang Miaoduan came back specially today. She wanted to see Wei Tiankuang's head fall to the ground with her own eyes.

She clenched her hands tightly and looked a little nervous.

"Yuan'er, how long will it take?"

"Two quarters of an hour."

At this time, the executioner stood up and read out the charges against the Wei family.

The executioner spoke at a moderate pace and read for nearly fifteen minutes.

"The time has come, execution!"

The executioner's sword shone with a cold light, and at the moment it fell, many masked men flew out from the crowd.

"Someone is robbing the prisoner!"

The soldiers, civilians, and masked men were in chaos.

The people who came were all experts, and the officers and soldiers were afraid of hurting the civilians, so they were somewhat restrained. When they saw Wei Tiankuang's rope was untied, they were about to escape.

"Yuan'er! Hurry! Stop him!" Jiang Miaoduan stared at Wei Tiankuang and shouted.

Before she finished her words, Cheng Jiuyuan flew out of the window with a veil covering her face.

At the same time, in another restaurant, Chu Ze and Chu Heng also flew out.

Three figures moved very quickly in the crowd, and the masked man suffered a lot of losses instantly.

"Hurry! Protect the general and go first!" the masked leader shouted.

Cheng Jiuyuan turned around and immediately ran straight towards Wei Tiankuang.

Wei Xiangming held up a sword to stop Cheng Jiuyuan and shouted, "Take my father away first, leave me alone!"

The corners of Cheng Jiuyuan's lips curled up slightly under her veil. She moved her waist and instantly grasped Duan Sheng in her hand.

After just a few moves, Wei Xiangming couldn't resist anymore.

Cheng Jiuyuan stabbed Wei Xiangming with a sword and kicked him to Wei Tiankuang's feet.

When Wei Tiankuang saw his son being shot by an arrow, his eyes turned red and he said, "Kill her!"

A group of men in black rushed towards Cheng Jiuyuan.

There are a large number of masked men, and each of them is very skilled in martial arts.

These should be all the secret guards of the Wei family.

Cheng Jiuyuan's sword dance left afterimages, and she occasionally sprinkled a handful of medicine powder or a silver needle, and the masked men fell one by one.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the leader of the secret guards immediately came to Wei Tiankuang and said, "General, let's go!"

As he said this, he grabbed Wei Tiankuang and flew into the air.

Cheng Jiuyuan danced with the sword in one hand to fight against other secret guards, and released Biluo with the other hand. Biluo instantly entangled the feet of Wei Tiankuang in the air.

At this moment, Chu Heng dealt with the last masked man in front of him and flew into the air.

"Suffer to death!"

One sword!

Just one sword!

Wei Tiankuang's head fell from the air, and his body was still in the hands of the leader of the secret guards.

Cheng Jiuyuan curled her lips and smiled at Chu Heng, then retracted Biluo and disappeared behind the overlapping eaves.

"Wei Tiankuang is dead! Give up resistance!"

Chu Ze rushed over to deal with the leader of the secret guards, and left the rest to the officers and soldiers.

Chu Ze and Chu Heng stood side by side, looked in the direction where Cheng Jiuyuan disappeared and asked, "Do you know that girl?"

He recognized it; it was Cheng Jiuyuan.

He knew that Cheng Jiuyuan's kung fu was not weak, but he didn't expect it to be so strong.

And Chu Heng.

Just now, Chu Heng killed Wei Tiankuang with one move, which was really terrifying.

Although Wei Tiankuang is nearly seventy years old, he is a general who has experienced many battles, so his kung fu is naturally not weak.

"do not know."

Chu Ze turned around, his eyes full of suspicion.

"Fifth brother is really a hidden talent. He killed Wei Tiankuang with just one sword."

"It was because of that girl who trapped Wei Tiankuang's feet just now that I succeeded." Chu Heng said gently.

Although Chu Heng still looked harmless, Chu Ze was already very wary of him.

"It's finally over. Let's go to my house and have a drink."

The aftermath of the execution had been cleaned up, with only two civilians slightly injured.

Wei Tiankuang's death did not cause much sensation.

Life goes on as usual, and there are only about ten days left until the Chinese New Year. Lanterns and couplets can be seen everywhere, and the streets are full of people buying New Year's goods or gifts.

Everyone's face is filled with joy as the New Year is approaching.

The once powerful and prosperous Wei family has become a thing of the past after today.

In the private room, Cheng Jiuyuan raised his wine glass and said, "Congratulations, Master, your revenge has been achieved."

Jiang Miaoduan drank the wine and smiled happily: "My wish has been fulfilled. From now on, I just hope that everything goes well for you."

"Yes. Master, the New Year is coming and the academy will be closed for half a month. What are your plans, Master?"

"I'm going to go out for a walk."

"I was thinking about celebrating the New Year with Master, but it would be nice for Master to go for a walk. There are many beautiful sights in the capital and its surroundings."

After seeing Jiang Miaoduan off, Cheng Jiuyuan returned home.

Sitting in the carriage, one could hear people talking about the thrilling scene at the execution ground today.

"You didn't see how powerful that female hero was. Swoosh! She was like a fairy from heaven flying down, and she killed Wei Xiangming with one sword. Seeing that Wei Tiankuang was about to escape, her silk ribbon seemed to have eyes, and it entangled Wei Tiankuang's feet..."

Through the gap in the car curtain, Cheng Jiuyuan smiled as he watched the man talking and gesticulating exaggeratedly.

In Prince Rui's Palace, Chu Ze and Chu Heng sat opposite each other, with exquisite side dishes on the table.

"Come on! Today is a good day, we deserve a drink!"

The two clinked their glasses and drank it all in one gulp.

"You and I, brothers, have joined forces to do something great." Chu Ze personally filled the glasses for both of them, his tone cheerful.

"What are your plans next?" Chu Ze asked tentatively.

"What plans can I make? I'll just live my life in my small office in the Ministry of Personnel." Chu Heng said indifferently.

"Then, what if Father doesn't allow it?"

"Brother, you are meaningless now,"

Chu Ze smiled and said, "Okay, let's not talk about that, let's just drink today!"

The two of them drank several cups in succession, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious, with a sense of brotherly friendship.

At this time, Buddha's Hand came in and said, "Your Majesty, there was a fire in the clan residence, and the prince is dead."

Chu Ze smiled unchanged, raised his hand and said, "Go down."

"Yes."

The smile on Chu Heng's face faded a little.

He was not sad for the prince, but was lamenting the false family affection of the royal family.

The brotherly affection and respect just now disappeared without a trace.

Chu Ze said softly: "Fifth brother, you don't have to think that I am cruel. I am a little reckless in order to achieve my goal. But fifth brother will not hinder me, and I will not use these methods on fifth brother."

This is a warning to him that if he gets in the way, he will do it regardless of the consequences.

Chu Heng raised his glass to hide the sarcasm at the corner of his lips.

Then it all depends on your ability.

This might be the last time the two of them could sit together and drink peacefully.

After today, everything will be different.
