Father can be an enemy country

Chapter 874

When Mr. Hu and others saw this, their eyes were about to burst, but they were beyond reach, and they all froze there for a moment. The common people felt the same way. They were all suffocated when they saw this scene.

At this critical moment, the classic line finally rang in everyone's ears:

"The Emperor has a decree to save people under the sword!"

Everyone looked around and saw more than ten horses galloping towards the execution ground. That sound was exactly what the horses shouted in unison.

Mr. Hu was extremely surprised when he saw this, and regardless of whether it was true or not, he shouted: "The emperor has a decree to save people under the sword!"

The official from Panyu County immediately followed suit and shouted: "The emperor has an edict, and the sword will save people!"

Then tens of thousands of people roared and roared. "The Emperor has a decree to save people under the sword!!!"

Xu Benya immediately turned pale and looked at Zhu Liangzu in horror. Lin Zhongmo's eyes flickered and he was not sure how to respond.

Ordinarily, one should stop shouting, but if the person who comes is just a messenger, who will he show himself to? He also hated Yongjiahou for nothing.

Zhu Liangzu would not be like these civil servants, afraid of wolves in front and tigers in the back. He waved his hand heavily to signal his son not to stop.

"Cut it!" Zhu Xian shouted sharply and thrust the tip of his sword into the executioner's back. The executioner endured the pain and said in a muffled voice: "There is an imperial edict and I am not allowed to chop..."

"Bullshit imperial edict!" Zhu Xian stepped forward, kicked the executioner away who was in the way, and raised his sword to kill his fellow Taoist.

However, those knights traveled three thousand miles day and night just to come to rescue people. How could he be allowed to succeed? There was a sharp whooshing sound in the air, and a crossbow arrow came and was nailed to his sword-holding hand!

"Ah..." Zhu Xian screamed, blushing on the spot, and the sword in his hand fell to the ground.

"Who? Who dares to hurt my son!" Zhu Liangzu was furious, and his soldiers raised their crossbows and aimed at the more than ten uninvited guests.

The arrow just now was exactly what they shot. The knight who took the lead was holding a small crossbow in his hand.

"I, I dare!" It was another person behind him who spoke. When the knights separated, everyone saw that it was a tall young man with thick eyebrows and tiger eyes.

Moreover, he wears a black gauze winged crown on his head and a blue robe on his body. On the robe, there is a group of five-clawed dragons on the front and back, and a group of five-clawed dragons on each shoulder. The four golden dragons are dazzling and eye-catching. Dare to stare!

"Is it the emperor who has arrived?" The common people couldn't help but talk when they saw that the robe on the young man was similar to the dragon robe in the play.

"How is it possible? The emperor is an old man, and this person is his son." Someone knowledgeable said: "Looking at the dragon embroidered on the chest of his dragon robe, he must be a prince!"

The common people guessed right, it was His Royal Highness the King of Chu who came. For this appearance, before entering the city, Lao Liu went to the river to wash himself and put on his uniform. Otherwise, how could anyone believe that he is a noble prince with a dusty body and only two pounds of dirt on his body?
  ~~
  The common people could all recognize him as the prince, let alone the three officials on the execution platform. They have all met His Highness King Chu, such a big prince, and they will never forget their meeting...

Lin Zhongmo and Xu Benya hurriedly came off the stage and knelt down to greet him. Zhu Liangzu's eyebrows twitched a few times, and he forced a smile. He laughed loudly and came down from the stage, clasping his fists and saying, "Oh, what kind of wind brought His Royal Highness the King of Chu to Yangcheng?"

"Haha, of course it's the evil wind blowing from Lingnan." Zhu Zhenpi looked at Zhu Liangzu with a smile and said: "The Marquis is so murderous that I can't stop shouting. I had no choice but to hurt Mr. Ling, you You won't blame me, right?" "Of course not..." Zhu Liangzu's beard trembled and he forced a smile: "The kid is blind and didn't recognize His Highness at the first time. He deserves to be shot with an arrow."

"Why, what do you think Marquis Yongjia means? If it weren't me who came, no one would be able to stop you and your son from killing Dao Tong?" Zhu Zhen sneered, then suddenly changed his expression and said, "Everyone was shouting 'The Emperor has a decree just now. You and your son dare to turn a deaf ear to the imperial edict. Are you preparing to rebel?!"

"Your Highness, you have misunderstood," Yongjia Hou felt sweat on his forehead. He had heard about Lao Liu's bad reputation for a long time, and when he saw him today, he was indeed well-deserved. No one can resist this big hat. He quickly explained forcefully: "Xie also saw it. Someone incited the people to revolt before. The general did not expect that His Highness came so coincidentally, and thought that someone deliberately shouted like this to add fuel to the fire."

"I don't dare to turn a deaf ear to the imperial decree because of the courage of the general." He said with a smile and said: "Please declare the decree now, the general will definitely comply with it."

How could Lao Liu have time to get the imperial edict, but this was not a problem for him. Then he heard him say confidently: "What this king brought was an oral edict, which has already been announced. Why, Marquis Yongjia doesn't believe it?"

"..." Zhu Liangzu cursed in his heart, as expected, it was the sixth man who was messing around. He could only say with an apologetic smile: "Don't dare. How dare you question His Highness?"

Only then did Lao Liu look a little brighter and said: "Don't worry, either today or tomorrow, the official edict will be sent to Guangzhou."

As he spoke, he glanced at the three of them and said, "The previous edict didn't say that people must be killed today, right?"

"No, no." Xu Benya quickly shook his head and said, "It's just that we don't dare to neglect it for a moment."

"Then it's over. Don't kill anyone today. We'll wait until the edict arrives." Lao Liu smiled and said, "You guys can't wait all night, right?"

"No, no, no." Fantai Naitai naturally shook his head.

Although Zhu Liangzu did not complain in every possible way, his arms could not hold his thighs, so he had to force a smile and said: "Then I will listen to your highness and escort the prisoner back to the prison."

"No need, he belongs to me tonight." Lao Liu shook his head and said: "Look at him half-dead. If he dies at night, who among you can afford it? Or I, the king, who is big and round, can withstand things better... …”

"Your Highness, this is against the rules..." Xu Benya said softly under Zhu Liangzu's eyes.

"What I say is the rule!" But I heard Lao Liuman saying domineeringly: "If you feel that you have violated any of the king's laws, I will change it."

"..." Xu Benya said in his heart, damn, how can this be a theory?

"Okay, Xu Jiantai, don't argue anymore, just listen to His Highness." Zhu Liangzu looked at Lao Liu with a smile and said to himself, you are cruel.

Xu Benya wants to cry but has no tears. Am I the one who wants to fight? I can't wait to find a crack in the ground and crawl in. I'm still fighting...

Lin Zhongmo then invited His Highness to stay at the Fantai Yamen to help him cleanse himself of the troubles. He thought that Lao Liu would refuse the offer, but in the end he agreed.

Lin Zhongmo had no choice but to quickly order people to go back, clean up the yard where he lived, make room for His Highness, and then quickly prepare the dinner.

Lao Liu turned his head again, clasped his fists to the people of Yangcheng and said: "Hello everyone, I am the King of Chu. On the order of my father, I have come to retry the case in Daozhi County. Can we talk about it?"
