Chapter 203: Do what you want to do
“Beheading them in front of the whole crowd? That is a statent, yes. But is that the statent that you want to give? You were never in the lilight, Feng’er. This is the biggest statent that you will give all your future citizens. Do you want to be feared, or loved?”, Liu Man said solemnly.
“You are saying all of this in front of two people who I don’t trust, and you definitely don’t trust. We are going to kill them. You know that.”, Liu Feng said.
“If you are that adamant on killing them, then go ahead. Do what you want to do.”, Liu Man sighed as he turned around.
“Do what you want to do? Are you sure?”, Liu Feng was surprised.
“You are not a child anymore. I have given you the best education to make you the best king I could. What you do is up to you. I gave you what I could. Now, all of your decisions should not be affected by .”, Liu Man said.
Liu Feng nodded.
“I will be beheading them in the center, a few ters away from here. If you want, you can also join the spectacle.”, Liu Feng said.
“I am not in the mood to join so beheading spectacle. I have no idea what we will do next, and the phoenix was nowhere to be seen since the fight started. This is just getting too much for an old man like . Leave alone. Leave the tent.”, Liu Man eaved his hand, dismissing Liu Feng.
Liu Feng nodded, and he dragged the two boys beneath his feet as they writhed in pain. Surprisingly they were quiet till their fate was decided.
“Your Majesty. Please forgive this offense. My father has been your friend for so long.”, Lucius lanted.
Liu Man’s eyebrows raised.
“It is too bad. I thought that your fate was sealed, so I told you so much sensitive information in front of you both. Too bad. You should have begged a little before. Then I would have considered it.”, Liu Man said.
“I will take these words to my grave, Your Majesty. Please spare . I am willing to do anything that it takes.”, Lucius begged. Marc, anwhile, had given up all hope on his life.
“The other boy has no intention of living?”, Liu Man raised his eyebrow.
“Your Majesty. I am but a marquis’ son. If even a duke’s son cannot escape this fate, then I am not stupid enough to think that I would be granted rcy.”, Marc said.
“Looks like at least one of these has a brain. I wonder why you would even think of attacking a prince though? Doing sothing as stupid as that, I wouldn’t even dare if I had a brother, because I would get found out. But, anyways, your lives are not in my hands. They are in his. I am too tired to take care of this.”, Liu Man said.
“I will take these two disgraces away from your presence, Royal Father.”, Liu Feng bowed as he took them by their arms and he dragged them out of the tent.
The mont that he stepped out of the tent, he could see so many people were standing outside. There were both students, and soldiers, and they were all quiet, staring at what was going on.
“Looks like they really don’t have much to do. The mont that sothing even remotely interesting happens, a lot of people will run to the scene.”, Liu Feng thought to himself as he walked towards them.
They imdiately moved to the side, giving him a path to walk through. Liu Feng smiled. He walked through the path laid out for him, glancing in either direction. On one side, there were the students, and on the other side, soldiers, all looking at him, and the two poor kids that he was dragging.
There were so murmurs from the crowd. Liu Feng halted for a mont.
He looked at the people around him once more, and opened his mouth.
“These two n here have committed an unforgivable cri against , Your crown prince. You might not know , but I am sure that you are loyal to the crown. Now, tell . What is the punishnt for soone who dares to rebel against the crown in any way or form?”, Liu Feng shouted.
“Death!”, one side of the pathway shouted loud and clear. It was obvious which side it was. It was the soldiers who had shouted this.
“No matter if it was a noble, or a commoner, in the eyes of the king, they are the sa. These nobles have committed an unforgivable cri by attempting to murder . Who here will be brave and loyal enough to deliver the final blow to them?”, Liu Feng shouted once more.
This ti, the response was not as unanimous as it was before.
All of a sudden, one of the n ca forward.
“I am willing to kill this son of a bitch. He who has no respect for won, does not deserve to live.”, the man said.
Liu Feng’s eyebrow raised.
“What cri did this one commit?”, he asked.
“He- he raped my friend’s sister. She committed suicide, Your Highness.”, the man said with a trembling voice. But he was trembling not with fear, but with rage.
“I know that you cannot control yourself when you see him. So I will not dilly dally any longer. We will be executing these two here, and today.”, Liu Feng shouted.
All the students looked at each other with dismay, while all the soldiers cheered. Maybe seeing a noble finally face justice was exhilarating.
Liu Feng walked forward, making more distance between him and the tent of his father.
“Follow .”, he said to the man who volunteered.
