and eating in silence, she simply quietly put food on her plate. Although she had many questions in her heart, she held them back.Not until he had finished his meal, did he let the camp follower clea...Once they realized what was happening, the crowd all fell to their knees with a resounding thud.
For inside the package was not…but the Prince's...head!
The emperor even retreated two steps in a row, seeing the two halves… He shuddered all over, his eyes bloodshot!
Lin Qingwen's face turned pale, and he kowtowed repeatedly, "Your Majesty! I deserve a thousand deaths! I deserve a thousand deaths! I deserve a thousand deaths!"
The emperor's eyes were bloodshot, his whole being radiating an eerie and terrifying aura. After a moment of silence, he commanded, "Bring Lin Qingwen to me! I want him dismembered into five pieces!"
The emperor had personally witnessed Lin Qingwen beheading Pan Shu...
At this moment, he wished he could tear Lin Qingwen to shreds with his own hands.
But after the emperor's order, those soldiers and Imperial Guards all cried out, "Your Majesty, please forgive us. Your Majesty, please forgive us."
After everyone had shouted a couple of times, the deputy commander of the Imperial Guards quickly spoke up, "Your Majesty... Commander Lin was also unaware. But Your Majesty, the person who truly killed the Crown Prince wasn't Commander Lin, I beg you to see through this."
Hearing the deputy commander speak, others chimed in as well, "Please, Your Majesty, see through this."
The emperor's face was ashen, his resentful gaze fixed menacingly on Lin Qingwen kneeling on the ground. His eyes burned with a fury that seemed to want to devour him alive.
He forced himself to calm down, telling himself to endure, at least until all the Northern Border army outside the city was slaughtered. Only then would he dismember Lin Qingwen into five pieces.
But he caught a glimpse of his son's...
He could no longer contain himself. His voice rose, “Bring him here! Take Lin Qingwen and dismember him into five pieces immediately! Wipe out the entire Lin family!”
The Emperor's words were like a bolt from the blue, exploding in an instant. At this critical juncture, the Emperor wanted to execute the Commander of the Imperial Guards
Suddenly, the soldiers' voices trembled as they spoke, "Your Majesty, absolutely not!"
Lin Qingwen would not say anything about his own execution, but the Emperor's order to exterminate his entire family... this was something Lin Qingwen could not accept.
He did chop the prince's head in half, that much is true, but the person who truly killed the prince wasn't him.
How could the Emperor be so heartless He's been loyal by his side for so many years.
"You... you dare to defy the Imperial decree Don't you get down here at once!"
When the Emperor saw that they were all kneeling and no one was moving, he became even more furious and trembled with anger.
A group of soldiers hurriedly bowed, "Your Majesty, please reconsider. Your Majesty, please reconsider."
"Do you dare to ask me to reconsider"
The emperor suddenly drew his sword from the soldier beside him and charged towards Lin Qingwen without a word.
Just then, Mo Junyi glanced at An Xuetang, who nodded slightly.
Mo Jun Yi was about to shoot the arrow in his hand, accurately piercing the emperor's arm on the imperial palace.
The emperor hurt his hand, and the sword in his grip fell to the ground. He was so frightened that he collapsed onto the floor, a rather comical sight.
"Protect the Emperor!"
Lin Qingwen heard the noise and looked up. Seeing the emperor injured, he shouted urgently.
"Immediately, he rushed to the emperor's side and exclaimed, "Your Majesty, if you wish to kill me, do so! But Your Majesty, I implore you, allow me to defeat the northern army first. With this achievement, I will secure the safety of everyone in my family, the Lin clan. If your Majesty desires my death, I shall not shirk my fate." "
Lin Qingwen felt that his terms were already very good. With the northern army constantly pressing to invade the imperial city, as long as the emperor agreed, with so many soldiers present and hearing it, the emperor would definitely keep his promise afterwards.
It is a pity that after so many years by the emperor's side, he still does not understand this emperor of theirs.
I saw the emperor's eyes were fierce. As soon as Lin Qingwen finished speaking, the emperor, with his uninjured hand, quickly picked up the sword in his hand and plunged it fiercely into Lin Qingwen's chest.
Everyone was startled and cried out, "Your Majesty!"
The emperor's sinister eyes stared at Lin Qingwen, gritting his teeth and saying, "You dare to bargain with me Who do you think you are Are you qualified to bargain with me"
After saying that, the emperor glared angrily at the deputy commander standing beside him, “Don't you dare delay! Take them down immediately! Anyone who defies my order will be executed!”
"!"
Everyone was shaken to their core by the emperor's roar.
Lin Qingwen clenched his fists. He remained silent for a moment, then, as the deputy commander was about to come over and grab him, he raised his head and stared fixedly at the emperor:
"Your Majesty, for my mistakes, I am willing to take the full responsibility. Please, Your Majesty, do not punish the innocent."
"Do you dare say that I slaughter innocents"
The emperor, furious, spat out, "Even if I am slaughtering innocents wantonly, so what I am the Son of Heaven! I can slaughter innocents as I please. Who can stop me"
In the city, An Xuetang and the others listening to the emperor's roar, all smirked.
An Xuetang looked at Mo Junyi, "Ziling, your method is good. It's useful to bring Pan Shu's head. This emperor has indeed completely lost control."
Mo Junyi smiled, "Mother, the most important thing for an emperor is to have heirs. I've already received news that the emperor of Dayue has long since lost his fertility. Moreover, his other child is not only disabled but also a disabled person who cannot bear children. So when Pan Shu died, he must have felt like the sky was falling!"
An Xuetang raised an eyebrow, "The emperor's position has no heir, hahaha, wouldn't the emperor think the sky is falling"
"Mother, are you really going to save Lin Qingwen"
An Xuetang nodded slightly, "Saving him, he's the commander of the Imperial Forest Army. He can help us solve a lot of things afterward."
"Very well, then I shall save him."
After finishing his sentence, both An Xuetang and Mo Junyi simultaneously looked towards the city wall.
At this moment, Lin Qingwen had been captured by the deputy commander, but an unwilling expression appeared on his face.
He was indeed unwilling to accept this, his eyes swept across the bloody head on the ground, then looked at the emperor, "Your Majesty! I did not directly kill the crown prince."
"I don't care!"
The emperor was furious and wished Lin Qingwen dead right away!
"Your Majesty, do you truly disregard any semblance of face"
"What are you still doing"
The emperor was impatient and didn't want to keep Lin Qingwen any longer, but in order for him to feel the agony of being dismembered by five horses alive, he didn't continue to stab him with his sword at this moment.
The deputy commander and other soldiers had something they wanted to say, but seeing the emperor like this, they dared not speak.
Just then, Lin Qingwen suddenly struck with his palm, sending the deputy commander flying to the side. He then used light kung fu to leap to the city wall.
All the soldiers instinctively pointed their swords and guns at him. Though they felt it was wrong, how could they disobey the emperor's command
Lin Qingwen drew his sword and sneered, "Your Majesty, this is what you forced me to do."
After he finished speaking, he suddenly attacked and began fighting the soldiers protecting the emperor.
In Lin Qingwen's view, he only had one option left: to kidnap the emperor. He needed to save his wife and children first, and then flee with them to live a new life far away.
How can one man possibly stand against so many soldiers and the Royal Guard
He was stabbed several times, clearly out of strength. As he was about to collapse, a voice came from below the city wall:
"Lord Lin, this young master can save you and everyone in the Lin family. If you trust this young master, just jump down. This young master's people will protect you."
