The Glorious Summoner

690 Chapter 690-red River

Many people might be familiar with the story of “two peaches killing three soldiers;” however, they might not know the name “Xiao shun.”

Xiao shun was actually an unknown figure in history. His identity was just an ordinary prison guard in the Dali temple of the Southern Song Dynasty. Many people who studied history might not know about him, but it was this small figure that made Xia Pingan feel deep respect.

As Xia Pingan held the realm Pearl, Yue Fei’s ” Wanderer ” appeared in his mind. Feeling a surge of loyalty in his heart, Xia Pingan calmed himself down for a long time before finally dripping a drop of his blood on the realm Pearl. In just a moment, his entire body was wrapped in a layer of blood-red light cocoon and he entered the world of the realm Pearl.

......

Xia ping ‘an opened his eyes and was greeted by a dark and gloomy passageway. On both sides of the passageway were prison cells, each of which had iron bars as thick as an arm.

A gust of cold wind entered the dark passage through the iron window, making the atmosphere particularly oppressive.

Walking in front of Xia ping ‘an was a man. He was wearing a prison uniform and his hands and feet were shackled. He was staggering. From the back, the man walking in front was very strong and was a head taller than Xia ping’ an. With every step the man took, the shackles under his feet dragged along the floor of the passage, making a clattering sound. Just his back view alone was enough to exude a tragic aura.

At this moment, Xia ping ‘an was a jailer. Xia ping’ an looked at herself and then at the people around her. There were a total of six jailer’s, three in front and three behind. They were all silently escorting the man in the middle to the end of the passage.

The sound of the shackles on the man’s feet dragging on the ground was extremely ear-piercing in the prison cell.

Xia Pingan looked at the man who was being held in front of her under the light of the burning torches in the passage. The prison uniform on the man’s back had been torn apart due to the torture, revealing the man’s solid back. Through the gap of the tattered prison uniform, Xia Pingan could still vaguely see the word ” and a half ” tattooed on the man’s back. Above it was the word ” loyalty ” for the country, and half of the word ” loyalty ” below the word ” loyalty ” was exposed. In the middle of these two words, there were still bloody whip marks that had not yet healed.

This was Yue Fei!

Xia Pingan was shocked, and his mouth felt dry.

Right at this moment, a few jailers had already escorted Yue Fei to the end of the passageway.

creak creak creak ” the cell door at the end of the passage was opened, and a cold wind rushed in from the outside, making the few jailers walking in front shiver. There was a courtyard outside, and the ground was full of fallen leaves, exuding a sense of desolation. Not far away, there was a Pavilion, and on the pavilion, there were three words ” wind ripple Pavilion “.

A large group of people were standing in the courtyard with gloomy and cold faces. Some men in Vermilion official robes were standing beside the pavilion. When they saw the gate open, they turned around and looked over.

“Alright, we’ve escorted him here. You can leave, Yingluo.”

The few people standing in the courtyard outside were not from the Supreme Court. A man in the uniform of the Imperial Censorate saw Yue Fei being escorted out and directly walked over. He waved his hand and coldly said to the few jailers.

After the jailers handed over the prisoners, they were ordered to leave.

With a “bang,” the iron door at the end of the passage was slammed shut. The people outside did not allow the guards of the Supreme Court to watch.

Xia Pingan stared at the scene in front of him in a daze. He felt his throat go dry because he knew what was going to happen next.

Xiao shun, let’s go. Don’t look at it anymore. Even the Imperial Censorate, Vice-Chancellor, he Zhu, and Li ruopu, Lord li, who dared to speak up for the Yue family’s Army, have been replaced by them. Let’s not get involved in this matter and just do what we should do. an old jailer at the side saw that Xia ping ‘an’s expression was a little unsettled. He sighed and advised him.

aren’t those Golden Dogs bullying us? didn’t the Yue family’s Army beat those Golden Dogs? it’s easy to shake a mountain, but difficult to shake the Yue family’s Army. Didn’t the people in the city sing this before? ” another prison guard with a face full of wrinkles shook his head and sighed in a low voice, ” the high officials sent to our Supreme Court come and go. I used to understand them, but now I can’t understand them.

shut up. This is not something we should be involved in. Let’s just keep an eye on the prisoners. Let’s go. It’s too cold in this damn weather. Let’s go have some wine to warm up. We can go home soon, ” a jailer scolded.

brothers, you guys go first. My chest is a little numb. Let’s find a place to get some fresh air, ” Xia Pingan said to the prison guards.

okay, hurry up, Yingluo. Xia Pingan turned back after seeing the jailer’s figure disappear at the end of the passage.

The iron gate of the courtyard outside the passage was locked from the outside. Those people who had been standing outside just now could not get out. Xia Pingan looked left and right and walked around the court of judicial review. After searching for a while, he finally found a warehouse near the Fengbo Pavilion outside.

There were some torture instruments and miscellaneous items in the warehouse, and no one was guarding it. The light in the room was dim, and there was only a small window at the top of the wall. Xia Pingan dragged a wooden table from the room and placed it under the small window. He stood on the wooden table and barely reached the small window in the room, where he could see the situation in the courtyard outside.

The pavilion wasn’t too far away, so she could see what was happening there. However, because it was a little far away, Xia Pingan couldn’t hear what the people there were saying at all. This was because this body was only a prison guard.

A group of people surrounded Yue Fei and mocked him.

Some of them grabbed Yue Fei’s arms, some of them clamped his calves with pliers, forcing him to kneel on the ground. Those people in Vermillion official robes were standing in front of Yue Fei, looking down at him coldly as if they were saying something.

Yue Fei held his head high and looked at those people with an unyielding expression.

Xia ping ‘an didn’t know what those people were saying to Yue Fei. He only saw Yue Fei shaking his head.

the sun is shining, the sun is shining! Yue Fei, who was being pressed down, suddenly let out a loud cry.

One of the officials dressed in red and purple waved his hand, and a few people who were narrating the story rushed forward. They pinched open Yue Fei’s mouth and poured a pot of wine into it.

That was poisonous wine!

The poisonous wine entered his stomach and in the blink of an eye, Yue Fei fell to the ground.

But even so, those people were afraid that Yue Fei would not die. A few officials in Vermillion purple robes whispered to each other. One of them waved his hand, and a few people rushed over. They pressed Yue Fei, who had drunk the poisoned wine but had not died immediately, to the ground and used iron hammers to smash Yue Fei’s sternum and ribs.

Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang! the dull sound of the iron hammer hitting a person reverberated in wind ripple Pavilion.

Breaking a person’s sternum and ribs and letting the sternum and ribs Pierce into the internal organs was a way of executing the death penalty. It was called ” pulling the arm. those people had brought iron hammers and were prepared.

After breaking Yue Fei’s sternum and ribs with the iron hammer, the few burly men didn’t say a word. They squatted down one by one and surrounded Yue Fei, their hands firmly pressing on Yue Fei’s chest and armpits, letting the broken bones Pierce into Yue Fei’s body. Blood kept coming out from Yue Fei’s mouth in clusters.

Two minutes later, Yue Fei, who was lying on the ground, stopped moving. Only then did those people disperse.

One of them touched Yue Fei’s nose and neck to check his body. After confirming that he was dead, all of them left and threw his body into the pavilion.

Xia ping ‘an had witnessed the entire process of Yue Fei being killed by those people, but there was nothing she could do.

Even though he had been through countless big scenes, the scene he had just seen still made Xia Pingan feel extremely stifled. He had the urge to roar at the sky in anger.

The most tragic and heartbreaking scene in the history of China happened in the pavilion outside, right in front of Xia ping ‘an’s eyes. Xia ping’ an finally saw with his own eyes how a dog official and dog Emperor of the rotten imperial court killed a hero for their sake, and how they pushed a country and a nation into the abyss and a fire pit bit by bit.

......

Half an hour later, a small leader of the prison guards in the court of judicial review gathered Xia ping ‘an and a few other prison guards to carry Yue Fei’s body back to the prison.

In the cell, the head of the prison guards looked at Xia ping ‘an and the others. After hesitating for a moment, he whispered, ” Lord wanqi Yun and Lord Zhang Jun have suggested that we wait until tonight for Yue Fei’s body to be disposed of secretly. We will deal with it according to the way that the family of the person who committed an unpardonable crime should not claim the body. We can not let anyone outside know or see it. We can not let anyone outside put up a monument to commemorate him. We must prevent the rebels from using this opportunity to cause chaos.

The jailers looked at each other. The ten unpardonable sins referred to rebellion, rebellion, betrayal, evil, disrespect, unfilial, discord, injustice, and civil strife. Usually, in the Supreme Court, if the person who committed such a crime died in prison and had no family members, the Supreme Court would throw the body into a mass grave and let the wild dogs and rats gnaw on it. In the end, there would be no bones left, and no one would be able to offer sacrifices or enjoy incense. This was to not let anyone off even after they died.
