Chapter 30 Blood Splattered on White Lotus
Liu Hong was helpless and waved to Wang Yan.
"preparation--"
Just as Wang Yan shouted "Ready", the swordsman Qin San shouted:
"Hi!"
He held his breath, exerted force with both hands, and raised the tiger-head steel knife weighing hundreds of pounds above his head.
The entire execution ground was silent, and the onlookers were eager to watch.
At this time, law enforcement officer Wang Yan suddenly shouted:
"Begin the execution!"
This shout was like thunder exploding in the sky, and people were stunned in an instant.
A white light flashed, and the tiger-head steel knife chopped down in mid-air.
At this moment, two masked men on the roof opposite the execution ground threw out four swastika-shaped rotating blades.
The flying blade was as fast as lightning, and just as the big knife was about to fall, it directly hit Qin San's neck, wrist, eyes and abdomen.
Puff puff puff!
In an instant, four streams of blood spurted out, and the three-meter-long white silk was like a bloody rain, and was instantly dyed red by blood.
"It's hard to control God's will!"
People shouted in unison.
"Where did the flying blade come from?"
When Liu Hong was feeling doubtful, he suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves outside the crowd.
As the sound of horse hooves suddenly stopped, people heard a loud shout:
"The imperial edict has arrived!"
When Liu Hong looked over, he saw Yuwen Zhu, the censor of the Imperial Household Department of the Eastern Capital, sitting on horseback and shouting loudly.
Yuwen Zhu dismounted from his horse, and the crowd naturally separated to the left and right.
"Pingyuan County Governor Liu Hong received the order."
Upon hearing this, Liu Hong did not dare to delay and fell to his knees with a plop.
"The Emperor issued an edict: Li Ji, the general manager of the Pingyuan County camp, organized a new army. In order to strengthen military discipline, he punished Shan Xiongxin with a stick and beheaded Luo Xiao. This was a fair punishment. He will not be held accountable."
"Pingyuan County Tongshou Liu Hong, who assisted in organizing the new army and worked hard at night, is specially commended. He is promoted to Qi County Tongshou. His rank is raised by one level."
"Since preventing bandits is a long and arduous task , Li Ji is promoted to the position of Tongshou of Pingyuan County."
After Yuwen
"Master Liu, please clean up the execution ground quickly."
As he spoke, he walked towards Li Ji.
"Oh my, this is a very erotic scene!"
At this time, Liu Xiu was still holding Li Ji tightly.
Li Ji's eyes suddenly lit up. When he opened his eyes, he saw that the white silk was covered in blood.
Another coma.
Yuwen Zhu thought that this kid must have been frightened out of his wits.
No wonder. Not to mention a child, even if your mother was an adult, she would be scared to death. It would be good if she was not mentally clear.
He slowly looked around Bai Lian, feeling strange.
Where did all the blood of this axeman go?
There was not a drop on the ground, but all the water splashed onto the white silk. Is there some injustice behind this?
He muttered, no way, an executioner has killed countless people, how can there be any injustice, it should be resentment.
At this time, Ye Fan and Ye Chen walked to Li Ji's side and called softly:
"Master Li, Master Li! Wake up."
Li Ji slowly opened his eyes and looked at Ye Fan and Ye Chen's frightened eyes.
"Ouch, wasn't I stabbed by a knife?"
Li Ji shouted, and Liu Xiu gradually woke up.
"It's Li Ji's voice. He can still speak."
Ye Fan held his temper and whispered, "Miss Liu, you are not dead."
Liu Xiu suddenly opened her eyes, and a ray of sunlight sprinkled on her and Li Ji's backs.
Yuwen Zhu walked over with a smile and looked at Li Ji and Liu Xiu.
"Congratulations! They are such a pair of star-crossed lovers. After surviving a great disaster, they will surely have good fortune in the future."
Liu Xiu hurriedly let go of Li Ji, a blush spreading across his cheeks.
Li Ji rubbed his eyes with his hands and asked in surprise:
"Master Censor, why are you here?"
Yuwen Zhu said slowly:
"If I don't come, can you still stand and talk to me?"
Li Ji realized that it was Yuwen Zhu who saved him under the order of the emperor.
He was puzzled. The incident happened in Pingyuan County, so how did the emperor know about it?
He was hesitating when Yuwen Zhu smiled and said :
"Master Li, we are destined to meet. You were handling a case at the Liangjun Mountain Temple, and I was at the scene ."
He coughed, "You're in trouble in Plain County, and here I am again."
Li Ji calmed down and said, "Thank you, Your Excellency the Censor."
He took Yuwen Zhu's hand and made a gesture of invitation.
"Let's go, now that we meet, let's chat for a while."
At this time, Liu Hong came over, looking apologetic.
"Sir Li, I was also under an official order just now. Please forgive me, brother."
Yuwen Zhu said: "This is how the officialdom is. Clouds can be created by flipping one's hand, rain can fall by flipping another. Fortune and disaster can happen at any time."
He placed Li Ji's hand on Liu Hong's and said to them both:
"With a powerful enemy at hand, our top priority is to work together to suppress the bandits."
He stared at Li Ji again and said leisurely:
"You can refuse to give me face, but you must not refuse to give His Majesty's face."
He looked at Li Ji's somewhat helpless expression and continued:
"Although you are far away from His Majesty, His Majesty remembers everything you say and do!"
Li Ji thought that the scene just now was so tragic that he almost lost his life.
Since the deadline has not yet come and I have survived, I should regroup and live a good life.
He said loudly:
"Master Censor, rest assured that Li Ji is not a petty person. I will cooperate sincerely with Master Liu in suppressing the banditry."
Yu Wenzhu smiled and said, "That's good. Let's go, Lord Li, why don't you invite me to go with you?"
Li Ji accompanied the censor Yuwen Zhu back to the case review office.
As soon as he arrived at the trial office, Liu Xiu busied himself preparing dinner.
Li Ji looked at Liu Xiu's graceful figure and felt moved.
The reward from the Time Tunnel Life-Changing System actually brought him a confidante.
When faced with danger, she did not escape, but pleaded for me at the cost of her own life's happiness.
When the executioner raised the knife, she was willing to die with me.
How could I, Li Ji, not be moved by this?
I always thought that the girl rewarded by the system was unreliable, but unexpectedly, she was so sincere and genuine.
You are sixteen years old now, like a rose, I will protect you with all my heart.
Li Ji was in a daze, and Liu Xiu had already prepared four side dishes.
He suddenly remembered the system's prize and the Dadu hot pot base package.
"Master Censor, come on, let's eat hot pot today."
Yu Wenzhu was shocked. "Eating hot pot? There is no such thing in the palace."
Li Ji said: "Strangely enough, there is no dish in the world that cannot be shabu-shabu. Once shabu-shabued in the hot pot and dipped in the seasoning, it is very tasty."
As Li Ji was mumbling the name of the system, a set of information suddenly appeared in his mind:
Classic hot pot: spiciness, two stars;
Traditional hot pot base: spiciness, four stars.
"Master Censor, do you like spicy food or mildly spicy food?"
Yuwen Shu asked: "Are there so many rules for eating hot pot?"
Li Ji thought to himself, what an old-fashioned guy, he's always hanging around the emperor, but he doesn't understand this.
Come visit me often in the future, I guarantee you will be satisfied with the food.
After a while, Liu Xiu prepared the ingredients for the hot pot.
Li Ji silently recited the system name in his mind and activated the "Dadu Hot Pot Base Packet".
After a while, two large bags of hot pot base appeared on the table.
He took matters into his own hands, opened a packet of classic hot pot base ingredients and placed it in a copper pot of boiling water.
Li Ji said: "This soup base is a classic flavor with a rich aroma, retaining the freshness and fragrance of Dadu Malatang."
"ah!"
As Li Ji was speaking, Yuwen Zhu suddenly screamed and covered her eyes with her hands.
