There were even more people who came today than when Zhong Tian was executed. Even Liang Xing did not hide in the dark and revealed himself publicly. He sat in the center of the stage at the back of the arena, which was filled with Minister of Civil And Military Affairs and Liang Xing's personal guards. Below the stage was the sea of people's Feng Army.
In fact, most of the citizens believed that the rumors were true. Wu Yu and Ziyang Haochun were indeed framed, but no matter how much they tried to repay the grievances in their hearts, they were unable to control the situation. They could only pray silently, hoping for a miracle to happen.
Qiu Zhen, Shangguan Yuanyu, Wu Mei and the others were mixed amongst the commoners. Looking at Liang Xing who was sitting on the high platform from afar, Wu Mei felt so much hatred that the roots of her teeth were itching. She turned and whispered to Shangguan Yuan, "General Yuan, do you have the confidence to kill this Old Thief, Liang Xing?" Shangguan Yuan did not reply, but a strange light flashed in his eyes. He used the Arts of Clairvoyance to probe if there were any experts by Liang Xing's side. After looking through them, he turned to Wu Mei and said faintly, "The two guards behind Liang Xing with blades on their backs are not simple, their cultivation bases are very deep." There were not many people that could be called extraordinary by Shangguan Yuan. Wu Mei was shocked, she anxiously used her own Insight, but after looking at them, she did not see through the cultivation of the two guards, and felt that the two of them were no different from ordinary people. Before she could say anything, Wu Guang said, "It seems like she is also an expert from the Divine Pool." Liang Xing also hired a Divine Pool Ranker? Why have I never heard of this before? Wu Mei revealed a puzzled look. She looked at Shangguan Yuanyu, then looked at Wu Guang and coldly said: "You guys said that on purpose, right?! "Is this an excuse for not wanting to save my father?!" Shangguan Yuan let out a snort and didn't say anything. If he didn't want to make a move, no one could force him to do so, and he definitely wouldn't use such a despicable excuse. He was too lazy to explain, he raised his head and did not even look at Wu Mei. Wu Guang's personality was much more gentle than Shangguan Yuan's. He hurriedly said, "Miss Wu Mei has misunderstood us. Since we are here, we will definitely think of a way to rescue Prime Minister Wu." General Wu Guang, you … "You must help me!" Wu Mei could see that Shangguan Yuan was a proud and arrogant man, she could not speak, so he focused on Wu Guang. Firstly, Wu Guang was honest and easygoing, and secondly, Wu Guang's spirit power was shockingly high.
Wu Mei's eyes flickered with tears as he looked at Wu Guang unblinkingly. Although she was only staring at him normally, the feeling he gave others was that of a flirtatious eye, causing one's heart to race. Wu Guang, who was that calm, couldn't help but be dumbstruck and unable to say a word for a long while.
Qiu Zhen sighed secretly. He coughed loudly, causing Wu Guang's spirit to tremble, he finally regained his senses, his old face flushed red, he quickly cupped his hands at Wu Mei and said: "Miss Wu Mei is too courteous, this general will do his best." As he spoke, he subconsciously took two steps back.
Wu Mei was Tang Yin's fiancee. As a division general, if he had any ill intentions towards his master's fiancee, what would happen? Wu Guang secretly reminded herself that in the future, she had to stay away from Wu Mei and not be bewitched by her.
Just then, Zong Yuan pulled Qiu Zhen to the side and whispered: "Master Qiu, are we really going to force our way out to save Wu Yu and his?" Qiu Zhen was also not worried about this matter. If he didn't save his, Wu Mei would probably hate him for the rest of his life. She was the future consort, and the future consort would hate her. If they were to save him, what reason would they have to do so? No matter what, Liang Xing had already established himself as a king. When his own side used force against him, they were morally at a disadvantage.
"Ah!" "Let's take one step at a time!" "Qiu Zhen muttered to himself, and said:" If it really isn't good, then we will have to get into conflict with Liang Xing before he comes back. " "Zong Yuan nodded, and said:" No matter what, Master Qiu must remember one thing, Liang Xing cannot die, otherwise, when Lord returns, you will not be able to explain it. " Qiu Zhen was startled at first, but after thinking about it, he immediately understood the meaning of Zong Yuan's words. No matter how great the fault Liang Xing committed was, he was still Liang Qi's father, and Liang Qi was one of Tang Yin's favorite commanders. If he killed Liang Xing, Liang Qi would not be able to continue staying in the Tianyuan Army, and this would undoubtedly be breaking one of Tang Yin's arms.
What a nuisance! Qiu Zhen was a little regretful now. He felt that he shouldn't have pampered Liang Xing too much, and should have restrained him when he was just making trouble, then he wouldn't be in such a predicament today.
As he was pondering in his heart, he suddenly heard a commotion from outside the training grounds. Qiu Zhen nodded his feet, stretched his neck and looked, only to see a group of thousands of Feng Army cultivators walking in, with two captives in the middle, and Wu Yu and Ziyang Haochun sitting inside.
One of them was a grand Right Prime Minister, the other was a Great General in charge of the entire nation's military might. Normally, they were high up in the sky, surrounded at the front and back by tens of thousands of enemies, but now, they had become a prisoner under someone else's banner. Their hair was disheveled and their faces were covered in white prison clothes.
Upon seeing that Wu Yu, who seemed to be aged 20 or so, was completely tormented in the prison cart, Wu Mei could no longer control her emotions and began to cry loudly. She shouted to Shangguan Yuanyu, Wu Guang, Zhan Hu and the others on his left and right: "Hurry and save my father, go and save my father …" Her wailing immediately attracted the attention of the surrounding people, they all looked over curiously, but luckily, Wu Mei and the rest were surrounded by Tianyuan Army guards who were dressed in casual clothes, blocking the eyes of the surrounding people.
Seeing that Wu Mei had lost control, Ai Jia and Ao Qing the two female generals walked over and hugged the crying Wu Mei. At the same time, they spoke in a low voice: "Miss Wu Mei, this is not the time to be sad. If we attract Liang Xing's attention, it will be very difficult for us to rescue Prime Minister Wu later on." After hearing that, Wu Mei finally stopped crying and looked at Wu Yu who was in the carriage. His heart felt as if it was being twisted by a knife.
Feng Army escorted the prison cart through the crowd all the way to the front of the execution platform. Then, someone opened the door and forcefully dragged Wu Yu and Wu Yu out of the prison cart and onto the execution platform.
Just then, a minister dressed in a official Official Robe's attire walked forward, took out a piece of paper, and read out loud: "Sinner Wu Yu, Ziyang Haochun, colluding with Zhong Tian, killing him, messing with the nation, heart to be crushed, anger to the gods …" The official began to recite the crimes of Wu Yu and Ziyang Haochun. If one only listened to his words, Wu Yu and Ziyang Haochun's death was not worth it, but the commoners did not buy such words. When the official had only recited half of the words, there were already sounds of booing coming from below.
The civil servant pretended not to hear him and continued to read, but at that moment, he heard someone from the crowd shout, "It's fake!" It was all nonsense! "My father has never colluded with Zhong Tian, and even more so, is loyal to Windy. It was Liang Xing, this despicable person, who framed my father!" The moment the words left his mouth, the entire crowd went into an uproar. Everyone turned their heads to look, and they saw that the person who shouted was a woman that was as beautiful as a skeleton in her twenties. Seeing her, Liang Xing, who was seated on the high platform, also trembled. Wu Mei!
That's right, the one who shouted was indeed Wu Mei. She saw that Wu Yu had already been escorted to the execution grounds, but Qiu Zhen and the others had still not moved, nor did they intend to rescue him. She couldn't help but cry out without care, and at the same time, split up the crowd in front of her, directly rushing towards the execution platform.
Wu Mei's sudden appearance shocked everyone present. There was no need for Wu Mei to speak, the citizens in front of him automatically moved to the sides, opening up a path. Wu Mei ran to the front of the court unhindered, raised her head and first looked at Wu Yu who was pressed to the ground by someone, then angrily glared at Liang Xing, pointed at his nose and screamed: "Liang Xing, you said that my father framed Zhongliang, but in reality, it was you who framed Zhongliang!" Seeing that Wu Mei had come out by herself and did not have any Tianyuan Army to support him, the shocked Liang Xing calmed herself down quickly, and laughed in her heart. If she wanted to capture Wu Mei, he would not be able to, but this time, she had taken the initiative to come over, as long as she had Wu Mei in her hands, even if Tang Yin came back, he would still have concerns.
Thinking about that, Liang Xing's lips curled up, but he immediately suppressed the smile that was about to appear. He intentionally wore a straight face and shouted: "You sinner's daughter, stop spouting nonsense in front of me and scold me. Men, seize this evil woman!" Following Liang Xing's orders, the Feng Soldier below the stage rushed forward and surrounded Wu Mei in an instant. Wu Mei was not a powerless woman. Seeing the soldiers surrounding her, she quickly took out her sword and transformed them into spirit with a wave of her hand.
Seeing that the fight between the two sides was about to start, the surrounding citizens all retreated in fright, Qiu Zhen who was in the middle frowned, he looked at Shangguan Yuan and asked him to signal for them to prepare to take action. Whether or not they save Wu Yu was secondary, Wu Mei absolutely could not afford to lose them, if not Qiu Zhen and the rest would not be able to explain themselves to him.
Before the competition grounds, Wu Mei used her spirit sword to point at the surrounding Feng Army, and shouted loudly: "Whoever is not afraid of death, come at me!" Although the Feng Soldier was surrounding them quickly, there were only a few who dared to make a move against Wu Mei. Seeing the soldiers surrounding Wu Mei, all of them being afraid, Liang Xing was so angry that his body was trembling. He turned his head to the guards on his left and right, saying, "All of you, attack!" We have to take Wu Mei down, we can't let her go! " Yes! "Great King!" They all carried their weapons and walked down the stage towards Wu Mei. When they were close by, a few of the guards looked at Wu Mei with bad intentions, their gazes moving back and forth between her and Wu Mei. After looking for a while, one of them said, "Miss Wu Mei, it's best if you surrender obediently, otherwise, you will be the one suffering!"
