Chapter 449: A miserable end
Chapter 449: A miserable end
Not to mention meeting each other, even if Yuan Che came to carry Xia Chan's shoes, he wouldn't be worthy of it.
"killed."
Xie Lin spoke in a cold voice.
Xie Liu bent down and said, "Yes."
"Wait a moment."
Xie Lin interrupted Xie Liu who was about to walk out and said, "I can't see the queen, but I can go see him."
As the emperor of the previous dynasty, the king of a fallen country, it is acceptable for him, the current king of the new dynasty, to meet him.
Xie Lin finished reviewing the memorial in his hand, then stood up, slowly left the imperial study and headed for the Heavenly Prison.
When they captured Chang'an, many things were based on the addresses of the previous dynasty, with slight modifications.
The palace is, and so is the prison.
Simple modifications and changes, but the interior remains almost the same.
The favored child of heaven who would never have been able to set foot in this place was now locked up in the sky prison, looking disheveled.
The face that was scratched by his own hands could no longer be recognized from its original appearance.
No wonder when the princes forced him to abdicate, he was able to use a substitute to replace him and take the opportunity to escape.
It's quite cruel to scratch your own face and disfigure it.
But then again, this man couldn't stand steadily without being ruthless, let alone in a situation like that.
If given the choice between staying alive and hurting their face, I'm sure many people would choose the former.
But even so, it wouldn't make people want to praise Yuan Che or admire his courage.
The winner takes it all, and if he loses, he loses.
When Xie Lin came over, Yuan Che was sitting on a pile of straw. Rats were crawling around his feet, and cockroaches and bedbugs were everywhere.
He sat there motionless, like a stone statue in meditation.
The jailer stepped forward and knocked on the iron bars, "Wake up, open your eyes and greet His Majesty."
Yuan Che, whose face was covered with scars, slowly opened his eyes after hearing the voice.
When he saw Xie Lin, he subconsciously looked to the side, trying to find another figure.
But there was no one else around Xie Lin except the expressionless Xie Liu.
Yuan Che smiled self-deprecatingly, "She still doesn't want to come and see me? Even if we are about to be separated by the Yin and Yang, she won't come to see her former cousin?"
The jailer didn't know who Yuan Che was talking about, but Yuan Che's attitude made him angry. "Hey, you scarred monster, don't you see His Majesty is here? Why don't you roll over and salute?"
The jailer pulled out the whip from his waist.
Yuan Che remained unmoved.
Xie Lin raised his hand and signaled the jailer to go down.
The jailer bent down and said, "The little one is yelling outside. If you have anything to tell me, I will do it right away."
"Okay, back off."
"Yes."
The jailer left, and only Xie Lin, Xie Liu, and Yuan Che, who was still in meditation in the cell, were left.
The other party showed no intention of coming to meet him.
Xie Lin was not angry either.
With a cold smile on his lips, he stood there and looked down at Yuan Che in the cell.
"I didn't expect that we would meet again in such an environment. Thinking back to your glorious time as the crown prince in the previous dynasty, it really makes me feel emotional!"
Xie Lin mentioned the previous dynasty, and the past that Yuan Che dreamed of returning to. Yuan Che, who was in meditation like an old monk, finally moved.
He opened his eyes and looked at Xie Lin.
"You want to laugh at me now? There's no need to do that. The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. Since I've lost, I admit it."
Yuan Che still has some pride in him.
Xie Lin raised his eyebrows. "Who said you were a bandit? You are just a despicable ant who is not presentable."
Bandit, gangster, those are all adjectives used to describe people.
In Xie Lin's opinion, Yuan Che can't even be called a human being.
When Yuan Che heard what Xie Lin said, he immediately became angry.
"you…"
I still couldn't help it!
Xie Lin sneered. Before coming here, he had been thinking about stepping hard on Yuan Che.
But when I arrived at the prison, I found that there was no need for me to trample on the other side.
He doesn't deserve it.
In that case, just kill him directly.
"The former traitor hired someone to assassinate the princess and important court officials. Give orders to have his body torn into pieces by five horses outside the gate at noon tomorrow as a warning to others!"
After saying this, Xie Lin flicked his sleeves and turned to leave the prison.
Xie Liu glanced at Yuan Che, whose face looked as pale as death, and he also left the prison.
Yuan Che's arrogant laughter sounded behind him.
But soon, the arrogant laughter turned into sad cries.
No one cared about him.
The jailers had no interest in such a death row prisoner.
.........
After Xie Lin came out of the Sky Prison, he went back to the lounge near the Imperial Study and changed into a set of clean clothes before returning to the harem.
Xia Chan noticed that the man’s clothes were different from the morning, and asked him with a smile where he had been.
"What did you do that required you to change clothes?"
Xie Lin held her hand and whispered, "We went to the prison. The cell was dirty and smelly. If we don't change our clothes, we're afraid that the odor will stink the cicadas and the baby in our belly."
Xie Lin himself is a very particular person.
Now that Xia Chan is pregnant, he becomes more particular.
Xia Chan laughed and said, "Luckily you are a hygienic person."
She didn't ask him what he did in the prison.
In short, she believed that he would tell her what she needed to say.
If he didn't want to say it, it proved that there was no need for her to know, so she wouldn't bother to find out.
It just so happened that Mrs. Xie Su was making clothes for her unborn baby, and since she had nothing to do, she went over and learned a few stitches.
Her skills were probably limited if she wanted to make a complete piece of clothing, but she could certainly sew some tight-fitting underpants for Xie Lin.
Xia Chan pulled him and asked him to see if the new pants she had made were suitable.
Xie Lin was a little amused. "Chanchan, I'm used to wearing the one you brought back from the pedestrian street."
He is used to wearing shorts with modern elements, so when he is asked to change into the shorts of this time, to be honest, he feels very uncomfortable with the empty feeling.
There is always a chilly feeling.
Xia Chan clicked her tongue and said, "Just use what I sew as pajamas."
"Cicada cicada..."
"Go quickly, don't dampen my enthusiasm."
The summer cicadas are full of anticipation.
Xie Lin could only sigh and agreed with a smile, "Okay, I'll try it right away. But Chanchan, you have to promise me that you won't do this kind of thing that takes your mind, eyes, and energy anymore."
He was wearing his underwear on the pedestrian street, which was really nice.
Xia Chan glanced at Xie Lin curiously, her eyes full of an attempt to understand what he was thinking.
Xie Lin picked up his folded shorts and went into the inner room to change.
The next morning, all the death row prisoners in the cell were taken outside the gate and beheaded.
That traitor of the previous dynasty even dared to hire someone to assassinate the current Princess Jing'an. The punishment waiting for him is certainly not just beheading.
Seeing him tied to five horses going in different directions, none of the people nearby were afraid; they were all excited.
Pointing excitedly at the person in the middle of the five horses being torn apart, he said, "This is the first time I've seen such an execution. It's really eye-opening."
"He dared to hire someone to assassinate Princess Jing'an and the chief commander of the palace, and even injured the Empress's personal maid. Such a daring person should be torn into pieces by five horses."
"Yes, otherwise if everyone follows suit, it will be hard to say."
