Chapter 571 (1/2)
The official of the patriarchal clan read out eight sins of Han Min: first, plotting against and killing the king; second, maltreating his father; third, killing his first wife Murong Ying; fourth, maiming his second wife ran Qinglan; fifth, forcibly robbing the women of the people; sixth, allowing the soldiers to burn, kill and plunder; seventh, persecuting members of other clans; Eighth, killing officials in the court.
”Cut him...” roared the crowd ”Crack...” ”The punishment of beheading or cannery is enough to calm people's indignation...” One after another, Han min knelt in the middle of the field, already scared to death.
After the official read out the confession, Han min knew that he could not deny it any more, and bowed his head in public and confessed. He turned his head and silently looked at Murong Zhining on the city floor, with tears in his eyes.
Murong Zhining responds to Han min with a smile. Her smile is bright and bright, but Han Min feels chilly.
The official of zongzhengsi raised his hand and pressed down. The court was quiet for a moment. Yuanzhi walked down the palace wall and went to the execution court. He announced loudly: ”Han min is extremely guilty. His crime is outrageous and people and gods are angry. It's so-called heinous. In order to wake up the members of the clan and descendants, Princess Fengyi, on behalf of the royal family, sentenced Han min to death by lighting a lantern!”
In a flash, the execution ground boils again. People clap their hands and talk loudly: ”yo! This kind of punishment has only been heard, and no one has seen it with his own eyes. How can we do it? ” ”It's said that Dong Zhuo of the Western Han Dynasty was lit the sky lamp, but that was after he died. When a living person is lighted, it sounds terrible! ” ”It's said that this kind of punishment is extremely severe, which can make people die for several days and suffer from suffering. However, the South Korean thief deserves it! My daughter, who was harmed by him, died in shame and indignation. It's great that the dog king is lighted! ” ”It's not a waste of my life to be able to witness the dog king being lit by the sky lamp...” ”Yo, Princess Fengyi is such a tough character.” ”Shh Watch the punishment well. If it's me, I'll also order the dog King Lantern... ”
Han min was frightened and scared. He felt that the sky was turning and he fell on the ground.
The bodyguard presses Han min, who is paralyzed on the ground, like a dead dog, to remove his prison clothes, starts from his feet with a layer of burlap, wraps his body tightly around his neck, exposes his whole body with only one head, and then throws him into a water tank filled with half a tank of lamp oil for soaking.
Han min was scared out of his wits. He cried out, ”Fengyi Uncle Huang knows it's wrong, you can spare uncle Huang! ” His voice was drowned in the incessant crusade.
Yuan Zhi goes to the city tower, sits beside Murong Zhining, reaches out and holds her hand in the palm: ”Ning'er, aren't you really afraid? Or shall I take you back to the Palace first? ”
Murong Zhining slowly shook her head: ”no need! Yuanzhi, you see how fanatical the people watching the punishment downstairs are! No matter there is resentment or no hatred, they are all shouting and killing, which makes me confused for a while. Do these people really think Han min is full of evil? I'm afraid a large part of them don't know what crimes Han Min has committed. It can be seen how terrible the herd mentality is! ”
Yuan Zhi patted the back of Murong Zhining's hand: ”Cheng Wang defeats Kou. If our plan fails, the one tied down below may be us. And the crowd of onlookers will still have such a heated discussion
Murong Zhining shook her head: ”I don't think people's cognition is numb, I just think that the psychology of conformity is terrible! I used to think that such a cruel execution of Han min would make people think that I was a villain and that I was a cruel person. Unexpectedly, I got everyone's response! ”
Yuan Zhi looks at Murong Zhining, half joking and half seriously saying: ”then you should conform to the will of heaven and the people! Ning'er, maybe one day, I will be tied there by you and light the sky lamp! However, I am not afraid of death. If I could die in your hands, I would have no complaints! ”
Murong Zhining looks cool: ”no matter who hurt my favorite family, I will not let him go!”
Yuan Zhi takes Murong Zhining's hand and sticks it on his face: ”if I can't be your favorite, I will be the one you can't let go!”
As the sky darkened, the news that Han min was about to be executed by lighting a lantern spread widely. More and more people rushed to the palace to see the legendary torture.
Two bodyguards took Han min, who was soaked in lamp oil, out of the water tank, tied him to his ankle with a chain, and hung him upside down on an iron frame more than a foot high.
Han min's face was pale with fear. In a low voice, he begged the execution Bodyguard: ”you You let me go! I'm the king of Shang and Xia. Aren't you afraid of being rebellious? ” The guards, unmoved, stared at him coldly.
A bodyguard climbed up the ladder, took a knife, picked up the sackcloth wrapped around Han min's paw, and put a wick with thick fingers into the middle of his paw. Another bodyguard said in a loud voice, ”Princess Fengyi has an order to use the thinnest wick, control the flame as big as an oil lamp, and ensure that the dog king is burned for three days and three nights without losing his life!”
Han min cried out: ”Fengyi Give uncle Huang a good time! Thank you for your kindness... ”
