Translator: 549690339

Its so bad, a whole family was raided!

The sound last night was too scary

Yes, yes, so many people, so pitiful.

Ming Shu sat by the window. Outside, there were several beggars squatting, discussing the major events that had happened in the capital.

A certain officials family of 127 people was executed last night by the Emperors order.

Last night, the imperial guards killed people. People could hear the cries of injustice on the street. In the end, they called the emperor weak and incompetent, and the demon queen had misled the country.

In the end, they ordered a family of corpses to be directly taken to the ma.s.s graves and thrown away. Even the graves were not allowed to be erected.

Theyre coming, theyre coming. Look, those are the carriages carrying the corpses.

Ming Shu looked in the direction of the voice. Several carriages pulled the corpses covered with white cloth and headed out of the city.

The white cloth didnt cover all the corpses. Some peoples hands, feet, and even their heads were exposed.

The surrounding people all stepped back and covered their noses.

Some of the cowards were scared to tears.

What a sin.

Lord Luo is honest and upright. He did a lot of things for us. I didnt expect him to end up like this.

He didnt even let the children go

Everyone only dared to discuss in secret, afraid that they would be heard by others.

There were five cars in total. It took a while before they walked over.

There were bloodstains on the ground. Even if the cars left, no one dared to walk over. They all avoided them.

Ming Shu leaned against the window. Hey, why was that person exterminated?

The beggars were shocked. When they heard Ming Shu asking about this, they looked at each other and prepared to leave.

Ming Shu put a tael of silver on the windowsill.

The beggars immediately squatted back.

They said to Ming Shu obsequiously, Lord Luo is taking bribes because his highness the crown prince investigated the case of corruption in Ningzhou. Recently, the news is spreading. If Lord Luo is involved, that person will make an example out of him.

These words were very official and didnt match those people just now.

Ming Shu added another tael.

The beggar chuckled. Lord Luo has always been honest and upright. Naturally, he wont take bribes. This matter

The beggar lowered his voice. Actually, its all related to the Prime Minister.

His Highness the Crown Prince investigated the Ningzhou case and angered the Prime Minister. Lord Luo is His Highness the Crown Princes Man. The prime minister used Lord Luo to take revenge on his highness the Crown Prince.

The Beggarsgang had always been full of gossip. Ming Shu learned a lot from them.

Last time, the crown prince investigated a corruption case in Ningzhou. The person involved in the case had a close relations.h.i.+p with the prime minister.

The Prime Minister must be unhappy with the person who touched the prime minister.

So he set up a trap to get rid of one of the people around the crown prince.

And he used such a cruel method.

This was undoubtedly a warning to the crown prince.

He was the crown prince, but he was still a crown prince.

The rumbling of the wheels came from the noise. A carriage ran over the road that the convoy had just pa.s.sed.

The carriage turned and when the curtain was lifted by the Wind, Ming Shu saw the side profile of the person sitting in the carriage.

In the blink of an eye, the curtain fell and the carriage disappeared from Ming Shus sight.

She threw the silver to the beggar and paid the bill before leaving the shop.

The carriage was heading out of the city.

Giddy Up

Giddy up Get Out of the way!

A group of people rode over at an extremely fast speed. The blood on the ground was trampled to spots.

The crown princes carriage was stopped outside the city by Xie An.

Move aside!

Your Highness, lets go back.Xie An knelt in front of the carriage. Its useless for you to go. Instead, you will leave a message for the prime minister. Your Highness, Please Calm Down.

The crown prince heavily lowered the curtain of the carriage.

Xie An thought that he had stopped him. Who would have thought that he would suddenly get off the carriage and get on the horse.

Your Highness!Xie An opened his hand and blocked in front of him. Please bear with it.

The crown prince held the reins tightly. Lord Luo has been honest all his life. He worked hard for the people. It was me who killed him. I Cant let him be dumped in the wilderness. There isnt even a Tombstone!

Your Highness, you cant go!

The crown prince whipped the horse and hit its b.u.t.t. The horse was in pain and immediately rushed over.

Xie An was forced to move aside.

Chase!

Xie An quickly grabbed the horse of someone else and led his men to chase after him.

His Highness was mad!

It didnt matter how the Prime Minister dealt with him. His Highness could endure it.

But this time, the prime minister suddenly dealt with the people around His Highness and even forced His Majesty to give an order. More than a hundred people, including the elderly, women and children, were not spared.

Xie An was very worried that his highness wouldnt be able to pa.s.s this round..

Ming Shu didnt expect that she would arrive at the ma.s.s grave so soon.

Although it wasnt the same as before, the environment was almost the same.

Ming Shu saw that the carriage carrying the bodies had left. She followed the blood trail and soon found the place where the bodies were thrown.

They were really thrown here. There wasnt even a hasty burial.

Since the Emperor had given the order, no one dared to disobey.

At this time, a figure stood in front of the group of people. He just stood there quietly.

Ming Shu heard someone coming, so she hid in the dark.

Your Highness, go back.Xie An saw the crown prince and quickly advised him.

Bury them.

Xie An was even more anxious. Your Highness, you cant do this.

If they buried these people, it would be against the edict.

What would the Prime Minister say then?

The one who would suffer would be your highness.

Bury them,the crown prince said word by word.

Your Highness!

Xie An knelt down with a plop, and the people behind him also knelt down.

Your Highness, do you want to kill more people?

Xie An didnt want to say this, but now he could only stop him.

Sure enough, the crown prince was stunned for a moment.

He slowly raised his hand and held his forehead.

As the crown prince Whats the point of doing this in front of me?

He couldnt even protect his own subject.

Your Highness

Xie Ans voice was a little choked up, but he couldnt say anything else.

Ill help you bury him.

A crisp voice sounded from the side. A pretty woman walked out from the weeds, carrying a shovel on her shoulder.

Xie An stood up immediately and guarded the crown prince behind her.

The crown prince looked at the person on the other side between his fingers.

The person on the other side poked the shovel on the ground and tilted his head. He smiled and said, Crown prince, long time no see.

Who are you!

Xie An.The crown prince held Xie Ans shoulder.

Xie An looked at the crown prince in shock.

How is it?Ming Shu raised her chin.

The crown prince asked, Arent you afraid of being killed?

Burying these people was defying the imperial edict.

He knew very well.

He also knew that he was being willful.

But..

He really couldnt hold on any longer.

The woman opposite him smiled sweetly. People in the jianghu dont listen to your government. The imperial edict is Useless to me.

The crown prince was silent for a few seconds and asked, What do you want?

WellMing Shu held her chin. I havent thought about it yet. Lets think about it first. Just take it that your highness owes me.

I want your life!

There are so many people here, but I dont dare to say it out loud. Im afraid of being beaten!

No need. Leave this place quickly.

The crown prince suddenly turned around and rejected her coldly.
