It has been 20 days since Shen Zhaoxue was robbed from prison. Today is the second time Sima Yun's family has been interrogated by the court.

Sima's family has been generals for generations, and Sima Yun's company Ma Chong is the founding hero. Such a family, but because of an unforgivable mistake, the whole family was killed.

General Sima Yun, who used to be heroic and heroic in the past, has lost his former heroism when he reappeared in the court, his cheeks are sunken, and his whole body is thin and thin, but there is indeed a stubbornness in his eyes.

Sima Boyi had messy hair and a messy body. Some officials who were not used to seeing him covered their noses on purpose to express their disgust.

Sima Boyi didn't think so, but gave them a disdainful look.

Hmph, it's still so dragging when you're about to die.

Prime Minister Xing Shilin couldn't understand Sima Boyi's behavior very much, and wished that the Holy Majesty would order him to be executed now.

Xiao Qi also started the second interrogation of Sima's family under pressure. It was said that the interrogation was nice, but in fact it was just a discussion among everyone on how to deal with it.

"I feel that the further trial of the Sima family needs to wait until the escaped criminal Shen Zhaoxue is caught. What do you think?"

"Your Majesty, it's absolutely impossible. Now the people are very concerned about how the imperial court will deal with the Sima family. If they don't deal with it any longer, they may lose popular support and cause turmoil." Xing Shilin stepped forward and said.

"The Prime Minister is right. No matter whether the fugitive Shen Zhaoxue is caught or not, the Sima family's crime of deceiving the emperor cannot be erased. The immediate priority is to prevent future troubles forever. Warming the hearts of the old people is the only way!"

"The minister also feels that he should be executed as soon as possible!"

"..."

After a while, many people stood up one after another and expressed the same views as Xing Shilin. Sima Boyi sneered, these guys, when he was so successful, they all fawned on him, and when he was in trouble, they turned against Debi Anyone is fast.

"Your Majesty, we can't drag on any longer."

Xiao Qi raised his forehead irritably. Aren't these people trying to force him to make a decision in a disguised form? Now he has no choice but to use expedient measures to temporarily stabilize these ministers.

"Ten days later, ask to be cut at noon."

"Criminal Sima Yun has a word!" Before being dragged down, Sima Yun suddenly spoke, and the officers and soldiers who were holding her let go of her in an instant.

"Go ahead."

Sima Yun's eyes were calm, and his side face was particularly resolute, "Zhaoxue never knew about this matter. It was the guilty minister who deceived her all the time. She was thinking of old love so she didn't tell the truth. I hope His Majesty can forgive me and deal with the guilty minister. Yes, spare Zhaoxue's life."

As long as the Holy Majesty and the court don't pursue Zhaoxue and let her live outside, then her death will be a pity.

Xiao Qi was stunned, and hurriedly said, "Zhen... free to consider, take it down."

"Your Majesty, you must not listen to that Sima Yun's bewitching words to confuse the crowd..." Xing Shilin wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Xiao Qi.

"Retreat."

The decree of the early court today was quickly announced on the bulletin board in the capital, and the news that Sima's family would be executed in ten days' time quickly spread throughout the city.

"What a good general. He has served the country loyally and made so many military exploits. If he says he will kill him, he will kill him. What a loss."

"Zin, there is no way, who let her be a daughter, the crime of bullying the king is a serious crime of beheading!"

"Actually, except that my daughter became a general, she didn't make any big mistakes."

"Who said no? She also married the Third Miss of the Shen family. Can a woman marry a woman? Isn't that a mess?"

"..."

Since Mr. Huo took over the affairs of the training ground, he has strictly disciplined the soldiers under him every day, hoping that they can quickly get out of the obedience of the previous general Sima Yun. With a gloomy face, he had no choice but to go forward and interrupt Mr. Huo.

"What are you doing?" Master Huo was very impatient.

"My lord, there will be something to report at the end."

"What's the matter, don't you see that the officer is busy training?"

"Yes..." Xue Jian looked at the soldiers under his eyes, and everyone stared at him with countless pairs of eyes. "The Holy Majesty has issued an order. General Sima will be executed at noon in ten days."

The voice fell, and there was an uproar.

The soldiers complained about this one after another, except that it was a woman, the general led the soldiers and fought well, so why would such a person be killed as soon as he said it.

Master Huo was a little displeased when he saw this scene, "Xue Jian, what are you talking about? Is bringing this kind of news to the training ground to disturb the morale of the army?"

"My lord, forgive me, the end will be just..."

Master Huo waved his hand, "Let's step back first, and Sima Yun will no longer be mentioned in the army."

"Yes, my lord." Xue Jian could only retreat silently.

When Wei Xue came back from hunting, she carried a few wild rabbits and threw them on the ground. Sima Yuxi couldn't help being startled when she saw the bloody scene, "You're back."

Wei Xue didn't look very energetic, she pulled out her chair and sat down, poured herself a glass of water to drink, "The imperial decree has come down, ten days later, I will ask you to kill me at noon."

Sima Yuxi was so startled that the kitchen knife in her hand slipped and almost hit her own toe, so Wei Xue quickly rushed out to catch it, and sternly reprimanded her, "What's wrong with you, so careless?"

"You mean, uncle's family will be beheaded in ten days?"

Wei Xue nodded, "It's not too late, it seems that we have to hurry up and formulate a rescue plan."

Sima Yuxi nodded, "I brought a lot of money with me when I went out. If you have a way, you can recruit more mercenaries in the rivers and lakes, and with more manpower, the chances of winning will be better."

Naturally, this matter quickly spread to the harem. Su Changjin went to Xiao Qi's study to look for him, but at this moment he was also worried about whether Sima Yun's family could be kept safe for ten days. He is unwilling to do this, but his identity is the emperor, so he cannot disregard the public opinion, but if Shen Zhaoxue's identity is really his imperial sister, then even if he disregards the opposition of the world, he will temporarily protect the family of Sima Yun life.

"Your Majesty, is there anything my concubine can help you with?"

Xiao Qi stretched out her hand to pull her over, and patted her hand, "Do you think I did the right thing today?"

Su Changjin pursed her lips and smiled, "Your Majesty did nothing wrong. The concubines also know that the order to execute the Sima family is due to the pressure of the ministers. Your Majesty's true heart is not like this."

"Under the world, you still understand me." Xiao Qi paused and said, "I'm just delaying time. When the moment really comes, I will definitely find a way to keep people under my sword."

"Well, it's better to be cautious. After finding the eldest princess, I will listen to the eldest princess's opinion, and it will not be too late to deal with it." Su Changjin said.

In the past 20 days, Shen Zhaoxue's body has recovered more than half, and walking is no longer so uncomfortable. In addition, Aqiu will accompany her for a walk in the nearby garden every day, but the more so, the more restless her heart becomes. Come down, she wants to leave here, she wants to see the general, she doesn't want to stay here and live this kind of life.

Even if she goes back, she will die. To die with the one she loves is also a kind of gift to her, and it is better than hiding here all the time.

It's just that Shen Zhaoxue hasn't seen her for a while since she inadvertently broke into that person's room that day, and she hasn't come here either. Shen Zhaoxue has no chance to talk to her face to face about leaving.

On this day, Ah Qiu walked with her as usual, Shen Zhaoxue pulled her away on the grounds that she wanted to drink water, and walked towards the gate of the villa alone. It can be regarded as finding out the direction and position of the gate. Sure enough, there are guards at the gate. Seeing Shen Zhaoxue approaching, they couldn't help but draw their swords to stop them.

"Get out of the way, I'm going down the mountain."

"Sorry we can't get out of the way."

"You... Your leader said that I'm allowed to go down the mountain when I'm healed." Shen Zhaoxue lied casually, but the masked man seemed to have said so.

The gatekeepers looked at each other, "Sorry, no one is allowed to go down the mountain without the handwriting of the leader or the elders of the villa."

It seems that there is really no way?Shen Zhaoxue hesitated.

"Then can you tell me where your leader is now?"

After getting the location information, Shen Zhaoxue decided to go to her personally and have a good talk, hoping that she would let her go.

Coincidentally, at this time, there was a meeting among the senior members of the Qiqing Gang, and Shen Zhaoxue just pushed the door open without any precautions. As a result, all eyes in the hall were on her, and Shen Zhaoxue was completely dumbfounded. She didn't seem to come at the right time, and she bowed in embarrassment. When she was about to step back, the elder on the side stopped loudly, "Stop."

At the same time, Ye Qing, who was sitting on the high seat in the middle, was wearing a new mask, and his face under the mask was not very good-looking. She was not angry at her sudden intrusion, but she was worried that letting these elders see her would be detrimental to Zhaoxue. .

Shen Zhaoxue noticed that the mask on her face seemed to have changed, maybe it had something to do with the last time she pulled it off and broke it, and suddenly felt a little ashamed in her heart.

"Where did this wild girl come from, so unruly!"

"you do not say."

"This is the woman that the leader brought back from outside a while ago."

"..."

At this moment, a leader of the second elder in the gang stood up and spoke after receiving the command from the eyes, "Guild leader, the discipline in the gang is strict, shouldn't someone who trespasses like this be shot and killed?"

Ye Qing made a metaphorical face, propped his chin with one hand, and bowed his leg on the chair.

Seeing that she hadn't spoken, one of the second elder's subordinates was impatient, and he drew out his sword and stabbed at Shen Zhaoxue. Before he spoke, Shen Zhaoxue felt a sharp and fast wind passing by her eyes, Then for some reason, the person who wanted to kill him just now fell into a pool of his own blood, without breath, and his death was extremely cruel.

Ye Qing knew very well that the Second Elder's action was nothing more than trying to give her a bad impression, but her actions have already shown her attitude... No one can touch a woman who wants to touch her.

Shen Zhaoxue was so frightened that she didn't recover for a long while, Ye Qing went up to hold her hand and walked out, arrogantly joking and completely ignoring those people, until he was about to walk out, he threw a few words to everyone in the hall The word, "The meeting is adjourned."

Short but powerful.
