Sister, you traveled through time too?
Chapter 144: Beheading
Tang Xiaoyu looked at his brother who was so serious and wondered what was wrong with him.
She doesn't care about age. After all, everyone is mortal and all these things are meaningless.
But she was still very touched. This brat really knows how to play tricks.
That is...when she read novels in the past, the term "Nine Thousand Years Old" always seemed to refer to some arrogant eunuchs?
Did her brother scold her?
She simply stopped thinking about it and just listened quietly to the officials paying homage.
Only after they finished bowing did Tang Zhao let everyone stand up.
He did not ask anyone to perform, but took Xiaoyu's hand and led her in front of him.
Xiaoyu immediately stood in a position overlooking the entire scene.
She just stood in front of Tang Zhao, and Tang Zhao just smiled and was hidden in Xiaoyu's figure.
"Today, I have something important to announce to the public."
Xiaoyu was not stage-frightened; she just spoke calmly, with dignity and elegance in her every move.
Then, the words that came out of her mouth stunned all the officials.
"I want to sue the Prime Minister Hai Yi for forming a clique for personal gain, recruiting soldiers, and plotting a rebellion."
"We should also sue him for corruption, embezzlement of military funds, murder, and evil intentions."
For a moment, there was an uproar in the court.
Hai Yi was stunned, his face froze for a moment, and a huge sense of fear and danger spread.
How could she know?
He suppressed the panic in his heart, knelt down neither humbly nor arrogantly, and hurriedly said, "Your humble servant is terrified."
But he had a hunch that he might be in danger of death today.
The emperor has always listened to the eldest princess, and what happened today was probably planned by the emperor and the eldest princess.
He was panicking, but he remained calm.
But how could she know that I wanted to rebel?
Hai Yi couldn't help but feel puzzled.
Could it be Xiao Yuner?
It must be that woman who betrayed me and told His Highness about her ambitions.
It's right to think so. It must be that idiot Xiao Yun'er who ruined his plans.
He hated Xiao Yun'er in his heart, but at the same time he thought that Xiao Yun'er, that idiot, didn't know much.
She just knew that she had the late emperor's son in her hands. How could this cause any trouble?
Even if he knew that he was in alliance with He Chen, there was nothing wrong with that.
After all, Haiying’s trump card is the Cui family and Cui Yunsong’s troops.
Thinking of this, he became more calm.
The Princess and the Emperor must be determined to get me out of the throne, but it doesn't matter.
If I go to jail today, Cui Yunsong will lead his army to destroy the imperial city tomorrow.
Ha ha.
He felt very happy when he thought about his dear Princess becoming a prisoner and falling from a great height.
Seeing how calm he was, Tang Xiaoyu sneered in his heart.
I thought that Hai Yi was probably still dreaming about his dream of rebellion with Cui Yunsong.
It’s a pity that Cui Yunsong’s head had already been hung on the city wall for public display.
It's time to wake up from his sweet dream.
Tang Zhao just glanced at Hai Yi and asked calmly:
"Hai Yi, do you admit your guilt?"
His voice was not loud, but it silenced all the civil and military officials in the court.
Haiyi stood with his back straight, looking as if he had nothing to regret.
"Your Majesty, just based on your words, you want me to admit my guilt and be punished? I don't accept it."
"I have devoted my life to the Great Sage, and everyone has seen it! My Hai family has been loyal for generations, how could we do something like treason?"
"Your Majesty, please think twice and don't be deceived!"
Hai Yi said this, and indirectly cursed Tang Zhao as a tyrant.
Tang Xiaoyu sneered and thought, is that all?
After that, it’s time to wait for death.
"You really won't cry until you see the coffin."
After Xiaoyu finished speaking, Dongxu stood out from the officials and saluted respectfully.
"Your humble servant, I have evidence that Prime Minister Hai Yi is guilty of treason and corruption."
After Dong Xu finished speaking, he directly showed the evidence in his hand to everyone.
With a stern face, he calmly listed all of Hai Yi's actions one by one.
"Three years ago, Hai Yi embezzled 100,000 taels of silver from the construction of the imperial mausoleum, killed ten workers involved in the construction, and faked his death in an accident."
"In the autumn examination of the same year, I bribed ten officials to cheat thirty students and trained them to be my followers. The list of officials I bribed is as follows, and the list of students is as follows."
"At the end of the same year, he embezzled ten thousand taels of gold to prepare for the annual banquet and killed ten palace maids."
"In the spring of the following year, Hai Yi secretly opened three brothels and became the behind-the-scenes manager. With his position as prime minister and his background, he unscrupulously forced women of good families into prostitution and harmed the poor people."
……
Dongxu recited like an emotionless robot, reciting every sin committed by Haiying.
His face remained the same as usual, but hatred was growing in his heart.
Every single thing made Dongxu hate Haiying from the bottom of his heart.
The more they listened, the paler their faces became. Each of these crimes was punishable by death.
This adds up to enough to kill hundreds of people.
Soon after, He Jue also walked in from the main hall, saluted Tang Zhao, and explained that Hai Yi and He Chen were in cahoots with each other.
Moreover, he took out the correspondence between Hai Xin and He Chen.
For a moment, there was complete silence in the hall.
The officials of the Haidang court did not even dare to speak out, for fear of being implicated.
Hai Yi's face turned extremely ugly, he knew he couldn't escape this time.
But he was not afraid, because there was the Cui family, there was the Cui family.
Even if he goes to jail, he still has a chance of survival.
Tang Xiaoyu saw the thoughts in his eyes, but did not mention the affairs of the Cui family and Cui Yunsong's death.
He just wanted to see Hai Yi hold out hope and admit his guilt and be punished.
She wanted Hai Yi to wait and wait in prison day after day, suffer torture, and finally leave in despair.
She knew that only if Hai Xin always believed that the Cui family still existed would he willingly plead guilty and be punished.
And Hai Yi, as expected, did not make any excuses.
He confessed to all the crimes Dong Xuhejue mentioned.
Tang Zhao was furious and ordered Hai Yi to be thrown into prison and executed in the autumn.
When Xiaoyu saw Haiyi being taken away, there was still arrogance and violence in her eyes.
"May you always be so flamboyant."
Xiaoyu just thought lightly in her heart and smiled.
That smile was extremely calm, without any joy of victory or complacency.
Haiyi didn't understand the meaning of that smile.
It was only when he was dying that he understood what that smile really meant.
It was a kind of compassion for the dying.
