After I traveled through the book, my sister kidnapped my mother
Chapter 138 Questioning and Killing
On the third day after Su Qingluo ascended the throne, during the morning court session, Su Qingluo casually asked, "Has the date for Xiao Yuanju's beheading been set?"
The Ministry of Justice said it would be scheduled after autumn.
"It's too late. Let's find a good day to kill him in these few days, together with the leader of the Beirong Army." Su Qingluo didn't want to wait until autumn.
According to Yun Zhou and Wen Zhimiao, this is a novel, if there really is such a thing as the power of plot that can influence the fate of some people.
Su Qingluo couldn't help but worry about the night being too long and causing more trouble.
Now all the civil and military officials in the court are in panic, and everyone is in danger. No one dares to help Xiao Yuanju escape from prison.
But after a few days, when it really comes to autumn, it’s hard to say.
As the male protagonist, Su Qingluo doesn't dare to gamble with his luck and connections.
The Ministry of Justice’s statement is unreasonable.
Su Qingluo just looked at the Minister of Justice coldly: "Talking about courtesy to a person who colluded with foreign races to harm the people of our dynasty?"
"Minister Li may not be very clear. If it weren't for your majesty's planning, and if it weren't for the prime minister's pretending to be nice to him and figuring out Xiao Yuanju's plan, Minister Li might not be able to be here today to explain to your majesty that it is not in accordance with etiquette." Yun Zhou stepped out and took over the conversation.
"Minister Li, why don't you ask the Ministry of War about the urgent report from the border that they received yesterday. How many soldiers died at the border and how many civilians were displaced during the massive invasion by the Queen of the Northern Rong."
Yun Zhou looked at the Minister of War. The topic had already been brought up, and those who supported an early execution would naturally come out to defend Su Qingluo.
After saying this, Yun Zhou returned to his seat, as if he had not said anything.
She finally understood that the so-called morning court was often just a routine daily debate.
In the end, the supporters won.
Finally, the Minister of Justice made up his mind: "I think that we should not let the relationship with Beirong become too tense. The body should be sent back. In this case, let's send Xiao Yuanju's head and body back as well. Didn't the Supervisory Council say that Xiao Yuanju had some unclear relationship with the Queen of Beirong?"
Yun Zhou was stunned after hearing this. She finally understood what the evil conservatives were.
This Minister of Justice was really conservative. He did not approve of beheading so early and even thought that the Beirong general should be sent back and the opportunity to negotiate with the Beirong could be taken.
But you say he is conservative. After Su Qingluo decided to behead him early, he wanted to send back the bodies of the Queen of Beirong's lover and the general.
I don't know whether it's a genuine kindness or a provocation.
Oh, he even thought about sending a few eloquent people and a heavy force to escort the coffin back.
Yun Zhou felt that if she were the Queen of Beirong, she would be angry to death.
The opinion of the Minister of Justice was finally supported by the radicals, and even some military generals volunteered to take on this task.
Yun Zhou listened to their quarrels and suddenly agreed with the saying that this world is just a huge makeshift team.
In the past, when she saw other people’s parliaments pointing at each other, swearing and fighting, she thought it was outrageous.
In fact, real political struggles may also be plain and simple. After coming to this world for a few years, she has seen ministers spitting at each other in the court, and they were just about to fight.
After the quarrel, the court reached a rare consensus that Xiao Yuanju would be executed the day after tomorrow. After the execution, a general who volunteered to send the bodies of the Beirong general and Xiao Yuanju back to Beirong.
The surviving Northern Rong captives were also escorted back.
Three days later, when Xiao Yuanju and the General Beirong were beheaded, the people of the entire Xuandu City came out to watch the excitement.
When Xiao Yuanju was paraded through the streets in a prison van, he had already been cursed countless times by the people.
The Minister of Punishment personally supervised the execution.
Wen Rongxue also followed the others to watch the beheading.
She was standing in the crowd, and before Xiao Yuanju was beheaded, she saw Wen Rongxue in the crowd.
He still couldn't figure out why he had fallen to this point. He knew that Su Qingluo didn't love him, but why would Wen Rongxue betray him?
Are all those likes fake?
Although Xiao Yuanju didn't like Wen Rongxue, if he were honest, he knew that he also enjoyed Wen Rongxue's love and warmth for him. More importantly, Wen Rongxue said that she would help him ascend the throne.
During the days in the Heavenly Prison, Xiao Yuanju also thought about many reasons for his failure.
He even asked to meet Qi Taihong to ask him why he finally decided not to rebel.
Qi Taihong looked at Xiao Yuanju and calmly drank a cup of tea with him.
After drinking the cup of tea, Qi Taihong did not directly answer his question.
Qi Taihong just said: "I used to be like you. I also felt that the Wen family was incompetent and had no successor. The queen was in power, which would definitely lead to the monopoly of power by the foreign relatives in the future."
"If we use common sense, you will not fail, but unfortunately, you and I have met an opponent like Your Majesty. That day, I also met the little princess. The little princess was chatting with Lord Yun. Do you know what they said?"
Xiao Yuanju shook his head in confusion.
"A righteous man has many supporters, while an unrighteous man has few. Do you think that it is the same between you and me?"
Xiao Yuanju asked sincerely, "Isn't it? Isn't everything I did for Tianxuan? What ability does Wen Huai have? The Wen family has made a mess of the world, so why can't I take their place?"
Qi Taihong shook his head: "But you have never thought about how many people will be displaced if you bring in the Beirong Army."
"Necessary bloodshed and sacrifice are always necessary."
"But why should you let them sacrifice?" Qi Taihong asked him with a smile.
Qi Taihong shook his head at him: "Xiao Yuanju, you and I are different, and you and His Majesty are also different. If it were really that easy to seize the throne, His Majesty wouldn't have to wait so many years, and I wouldn't have to wait so many years either."
“The people may be like ants to us, but you can think so in your heart, but you can never really do it.”
"Besides, you use love as bait, which is the most unreliable thing."
Qi Taihong came here not because he hoped that he would wake up or something, he came here just because he thought about the two unfilial sons in his family.
I have nothing to do, so I just come here for a stroll.
Wen Rongxue turned and left before Xiao Yuanju was beheaded. Seeing Xiao Yuanju's miserable appearance, Wen Rongxue curled her lips.
Her smile reminded Xiao Yuanju of Qi Taihong's words: using love as bait is the most foolish thing.
Xiao Yuanju looked at Wen Rongxue's back as he left, feeling a little confused. Has he ever done this before?
Shouldn't the relationship between him and Wen Rongxue be more about mutual interests?
The moment Xiao Yuanju's head fell to the ground, he never figured it out.
At the same time, a huge firework shot up into the sky in the palace.
As if celebrating something.
It was Wen Zhimiao who lit the fireworks, and she specially asked someone to get them for her.
Anyway, she has no morals, she is just happy that Xiao Yuanju is dead.
Qi Guyu and Yun Zhou were drinking tea. Today was a day off, so Qi Guyu invited Yun Zhou and they happened to talk about Xiao Yuanju's request to see Qi Taihong.
When it comes to love, Yun Zhou just smiled.
"No, he will never feel that he is using love to hook anyone until his death."
"Liking him is just wishful thinking for those women, isn't it?"
A mocking smile appeared on Yun Zhou's lips.
