The most romantic little emperor

Chapter 708: The Sound of 3 Kills

Fan Wenhai watched every move in front of him with a terrifying look on his face.

Some officials were talking in low voices.

One official even suggested, "Master Fan, this is too cruel. It would be better to just behead him to avoid criticism."

Fan Wenhai glanced at the official and sneered, "Do you really want to disobey my order?"

"Your Majesty said to cut me into pieces, not even a single cut."

"If you really have the heart of a bodhisattva, why would you still be an official? Wouldn't it be better to just go to the temple and chant sutras?"

"If you dare say anything more, I will report this to His Majesty and have the Ministry of Justice investigate you thoroughly."

Upon hearing this, the official turned pale and didn't even dare to fart.

The other officials were so frightened that they trembled all over and dared not say another word.

After all, the Shangshu in front of him was famous for his cruelty. A few days ago, he killed those rebellious gangsters in the capital and made them flee in panic.

Who can guarantee that the knife in his hand will not stab his colleagues?

The most important thing is that he not only holds a high position, but is also highly regarded by His Majesty. There are even many rumors in the palace that his daughter will enter the palace to be His Majesty's concubine.

From that day on, he would truly become a member of the royal family, and entering the cabinet was only a matter of time. It would only take a word from His Majesty to confer him the title of Duke or Marquis.

Who would dare to offend him for an unknown prisoner?

Fan Wenhai ignored the opinions of others and shouted in a deep voice, "This time, our imperial guards will follow Lord Guo and go to Hedong to provide disaster relief according to His Majesty's order."

"Lord Guo and his men worked tirelessly to ensure the survival of the people of Hedong. They fought against the evil forces and refused to surrender to the thieves even until the very end."

"Now, Lord Guo is seriously injured, and the rest of the soldiers have all died in battle. No one survived!"

As he spoke, tears rolled down his cheeks, but he held them back and said indignantly, "And this vicious woman in front of me is the culprit who murdered Lord Guo and ordered her men to massacre 500 of my Great Xia's imperial guards."

"Those are five hundred soldiers, aren't they? They have five hundred families left behind! Their wives, children, and elders are waiting for them to return and reunite. It's a pity that they can never come back and will never see their loved ones again."

"Look around you. Many of those present today are relatives of fallen soldiers who came to witness the execution. Look at their sad faces."

"If we don't cut the thieves into pieces, how can we be worthy of those dead soldiers? How can we be worthy of their living relatives?"

"You said that she had committed such a great crime that angered heaven and man that His Majesty avenged Lord Guo and the fallen soldiers by having her cut into pieces. Is that right?"

The common people and the imperial guards present shouted in unison, "Your Majesty is wise!"

"Your Majesty did the right thing!"

"Such a vicious person deserves to be killed and sliced ​​into pieces with ten thousand knives!"

Fan Wenhai looked at the official who had spoken and said sternly, "Do you still think it's cruel? Now you understand what public outrage and public resentment mean."

The official's face flushed, and he knelt on the ground and pleaded, "Your Excellency, I am sorry for what you have done. I know I was wrong!"

Fan Wenhai snorted coldly, not even glancing at him, and continued, "Your Majesty has decreed that all citizens of Daxia, regardless of whether they are local princes, aristocratic families, or people from the underworld, who dare to rebel against the emperor will suffer the same fate!"

"As the Minister of Justice, I, Fan Wenhai, am in charge of the court's laws. I swear hereby that anyone who dares to rebel will be killed! Anyone who dares to aid and abet the tyrant will be killed! Anyone who dares to oppress the people will be killed!"

The sound of "three kills" was deafening, majestic and decisive, and many onlookers were frightened.

However, more people applauded and said, "Master Fan is a good official! Daxia needs officials like you who can speak up for the people!"

"Well said, Lord Fan, we support you."

"..."

Seeing the people's reaction, Fan Wenhai waved his hand with satisfaction and said to the executioner, "Continue. Show no mercy."

The prison officer who was carrying out the execution wiped the cold sweat from his palms, his hands were shaking, and thought to himself, how dare I!

A stick of incense passes.

The woman seemed to be unable to hold on any longer, blood was flowing, and dozens of pieces of her flesh were cut off. The pain she was in was self-evident.

The bloody scene made many people and officials start to vomit. Their fear of such torture and the court reached the extreme.

……

As soon as Li Shishi returned to Qin Hao's residence outside the palace, she received the news that the operation had failed.

She frowned and cursed in a low voice, "Fool, knowing it was a trap, you still tried to save people. How foolish!"

"Who are you calling stupid?" Qin Hao suddenly appeared behind Li Shishi like a ghost and laughed softly.

When Li Shishi heard Qin Hao's voice, her body trembled slightly and she almost collapsed to the ground.

She tightened her slender legs, put on a smiling face, and slowly turned around and walked forward.

She bowed slightly and said with a sweet smile, "Your Majesty, you are here!"

"Why didn't you let me know so I could burn incense and bathe in advance to welcome His Majesty."

Qin Hao's eyes were calm, as unperturbed as an ancient, frozen pond. He chuckled softly and said, "I just came out of the Guo residence. I haven't heard your voice for a long time. I just happened to stop by to see you."

Seeing that he did not delve into the question, Li Shishi felt relieved.

She gathered her hair from her forehead, stepped forward, and presented her beautiful face to the man before her. She covered her mouth with her hands and chuckled softly, saying, "Your Majesty, this is not difficult."

"I will change into a light and soft cloud dress right now, and then I will call Sister Luoxue Rushuang to accompany me. I guarantee you will be satisfied."

Qin Hao patted her plump buttocks through her clothes and said with a lewd look, "Why don't you go change quickly? I can't wait any longer."

Li Shishi pretended to be hurt and gently hit Qin Hao's chest a few times, saying, "Your Majesty, please wait a moment. I will be back soon."

After saying that, she threw a coquettish glance, twisted her waist slightly, and walked away slowly, leaving people with endless room for imagination.

Qin Hao watched Li Shishi's departing back, his eyes slightly narrowed, and he muttered to himself, "I want to see how long you will keep hiding this from me!"

Feng Lao, standing by, said respectfully, "Your Majesty, according to the Jinyiwei, Master Li did go to the execution ground just now. Her identity has been confirmed. I wonder when you will take action?"

"There is no rush for this matter. I want her to reveal her true colors and leave her nowhere to hide." Qin Hao said confidently, confident of victory.
