Chapter 1536: This Is the End!
....
Translator: Lonelytree
It seemed that His Majesty wanted to stand up for Princess Gu and planned to settle the score.
Thinking of this, many people broke out in cold sweat.
Just now, they seemed to be forcing His Majesty. They wondered if they had angered His Majesty.
When some people thought of this, they wanted to leave secretly.
However, they couldn’t help but want to stay and see what was going on.
Looking at the surrounding commoners, there were at least thousands of them.
Therefore, it was impossible for His Majesty to arrest everyone.
In fact, these commoners shouldn’t be worried about whether they would be caught or not.
The ones who should be worried were the ministers who knelt down and begged the emperor to abolish the princess.
At this moment, their foreheads and temples were drenched in cold sweat. Their faces were pale, and their arms and sleeves were constantly wiping the sweat that dripped down their faces.
They did not know what was going on just now. They just felt their heads go blank. When they saw the commoners kneeling down and asking for the princess of Guguo to be stripped of her t.i.tle, they also knelt down and pushed the emperor.
But heaven was not too kind.
It was fine if it was a bolt from the blue.
However, it went straight into the crowd, and it didn’t hit anyone but the elders of Lin Laosan’s family.
Now, the Lin Laosan’s family had turned into charcoal. Other than the occasional painful moans, those who did not know better would think that it was real charcoal.
Therefore, these ministers who had requested for the Emperor to abolish the t.i.tle of Princess Gu had been slapped in the face. Moreover, this slap was especially beautiful.
At the same time, they were very clear in their hearts.
Princess Gu was not crippled. Instead, she became even more powerful.
However, they knew that they had offended both the princess and the general at the same time.
This was a huge disadvantage for those who were in the wrong camp.
The only person who won the bet was the Crown Prince.
His plea for mercy had completely won the favour of the princess and the general.
Even if the Great General and Princess Guguo did not choose sides, at the very least, they would not target the Crown Prince and his party.
It was as if there was a huge rock in the middle of the road, but suddenly, the rock disappeared, and he pa.s.sed through it smoothly.
Seeing this result, Yuwen Yanyu heaved a sigh of relief.
The heavens had blessed him, and he had won the bet!
The eldest grandprince, who was standing beside the crown prince, looked at the crown prince’s relaxed expression. His eyes darkened, but a trace of regret flashed in his eyes.
However, it was useless to regret now.
“Men, get the doctor!” Yuwen Longyan shouted.
These people were not qualified to be examined by the imperial physicians.
A moment later, a white-bearded doctor followed behind the soldier and hurried over.
When he saw the Emperor, he put down the medicine box and shouted to the Empress Emperor in fear,” This commoner kowtows to the Emperor. Long live the Emperor! ”
Yuwen Longyan said,” Stand up. See if they are still alive. If they are still alive, do not let them die!”
“Yes, Your Majesty!” The old doctor replied very carefully.
However, because he was afraid of the majesty of the Emperor, he fell when he got up. After that, the soldiers helped him up and supported him to the pile of charcoal.
After the old doctor put down the medicine box, he began to examine them
one by one.
After some time, when he was done with his examination, he walked over and reported to Yuwen Longyan,” Your Majesty, these injured people are still alive. There are no internal injuries. They are all superficial injuries! But,” he paused, not knowing if he should continue.
“But what? Speak!” Yuwen Longyan shouted sternly.
The old doctor said carefully,” Their skin has been burnt. Even if we apply medicine to them, they won’t be able to recover. Moreover, because their skin is injured in all directions, I’m afraid that the aftereffects will bring them great danger!’
He was a doctor from the nearby clinic. Although he wasn’t present earlier, he knew what had happened.
However, Yuwen Longyan didn’t care if the aftereffects would endanger their lives as long as they were alive!
“Alright, you may leave!”
After Yuwen Longyan dismissed the old physician, his expression was solemn, and his aura was dignified.
Everyone knew that His Majesty was going to punish the Lin Laosan’s family and the villagers of the Lin family village!
Yuwen Longyan shouted,” Lin Sandou, Li Cuihua, and the rest of the Lin family used their relationship to slander the princess of Guguo. They committed many crimes. They are sentenced to death. Lin Dazong was so young, but he was vicious. He slandered the princess of Guguo, offended his superiors, and committed many crimes. He is sentenced to death for violating his superiors. He will first be castrated and then beheaded!
“Villagers of Lin Family Village falsely testify and slander the princess of Guguo. Take all of them into prison and execute them tomorrow at noon!”
Once the emperor opened his mouth, death came for all of them.
He didn’t even let off a few-year-old child.
However, who could blame His Majesty?
Who told them to do something like this? They could only hope that they would have a good birth in their next life!
“Your Majesty, I’m innocent!”
When the villagers of Lin Family Village reacted, they immediately cried out that they had been wronged.
They were there to earn money, not to die!
How did this happen to them?
“I’m innocent, Your Majesty!’
Then, a person crawled out from the crowd of Lin Family villagers and knelt in front of the Emperor. He said loudly,” Your Majesty, we were brought into the capital. He said that if we followed him into the capital and accused the princess, he would give us a large sum of money. We were all blinded by money. Please have mercy on us, Your Majesty. Spare our lives.. We won’t dare to do it again!’
