Chapter 28

Xiaoxiao originally had no will to survive, but was awakened by Sima Yue's words.Not to mention whether she can live or not, she can't let Sima Yue take risks, she has to get out, and get out in her own way!There were too many things that happened during this period, and she hadn't had a chance to sort them out, so she had to take advantage of these few days to figure it out.

She was sure that the props this time were prepared by herself, and she was absolutely sure of the weight, there would only be less and no more. For such a violent explosion to occur, someone must have manipulated behind her back.The question is, who has the opportunity to do it, and what is the motive?For her, or for the emperor?In addition, even if it is not enough to determine who it is, she needs evidence, evidence that can directly convince the emperor!
She wrote all the possibilities on the sand with a small stick, and ruled them out one by one, until she thought of the next night, she had some clues, but she still felt a little uncertain, these questions were locked in the prison and she lost her freedom, so she couldn't go out fixed.Just as he was having a headache, the cell door suddenly opened, and the person who came was a woman in a cloak, the shadow of the brim of the hat covered her eyebrows and eyes.Beware of doubts, the woman raised her head and put down the hood of her cloak, her face gradually became clear under the candlelight, it turned out to be Princess Wan!
Princess Wan stepped forward to hold her little hand, and said with concern: "Sister Su is suffering!"

"Why are you here? Still wearing such a dress?"

"Since Sister Su was imprisoned, I have always wanted to intercede with the emperor. The queen mother was afraid that I would cause trouble at this time and offend the emperor, so she grounded me. I finally sneaked out to see you today." Weeping, "I'm afraid at noon tomorrow..."

"Now is not the time to say that!" Su Xiaoxiao interrupted her, "Can you do me a favor? This favor is very important, it is related to whether I can get out alive!"

Princess Wan stopped crying, and opened her eyes wide in surprise: "Sister Su, tell me quickly, as long as I can save my sister, I will do anything!"

"There is a brown-red lacquered wooden box in my house, you can get it for me, but remember, don't touch it directly with your fingers, wrap it in a handkerchief and bring it with you." Su Xiaoxiao said after thinking for a while. : "Help me go to the warehouse and ask the soldiers guarding the gate, who has been to the warehouse before the first banquet!"

Princess Wan was a little puzzled when she heard the words, but she also knew that time was running out, so she covered her cloak and said, "I'll go right away, you wait for my news."

"Thank you..." Xiao Xiao looked at her, as if looking at all hope.

"Sister Su, there is no need to thank you and me. I will remember how you helped me before, and I don't want anything to happen to my sister." Princess Wan opened the door and went out.The prison door was locked heavily, and everything was quiet again.

That night, Su Xiaoxiao was sleepless all night, but she couldn't wait for Princess Wan to come.

In the morning of the second day, the jailer sent some food, which was richer than before, and Xiao Xiao knew that it was a meal with a severed head, so she had no intention of swallowing it.She didn't know what happened to Princess Wan, maybe something was delayed, but what if Princess Wan didn't come back before noon?What about her?
After waiting for another two hours, two guards, one tall and one short, walked in. They had been taught a lesson before and did not act violently. They just stood aside and urged: "Miss Su, let's go to the execution ground."

Su Xiaoxiao didn't move, she was still waiting.

"Miss Su, don't embarrass us brothers, it's no joke to be late." The jailer took another two steps closer.

Su Xiaoxiao still didn't move, and it's only a matter of time if she can delay it for a while. If she goes to the execution ground, she can't control how Sima Yue will move... The two jailers, one tall and one short, are obviously impatient, so they can only walk over and ignore her Struggling and resisting, she was dragged towards the prison door. Her leg was hooked by a wooden spike beside the prison door, and blood was dripping immediately.The two of them just looked down, ignored her, dragged her out of the sky prison, tied her up and put her in shackles and locked her in the prison car.The wheels turned up and down, heading towards the Meridian Gate.Su Xiaoxin's heart is cold, and she doesn't know if beheading hurts or not. After using this body for so long, she can't save her whole body. I hope she won't blame me...

The sun was extremely dazzling that day, and it made blood red in front of my eyes. When the wheels stopped, Xiao Xiao put down his hands covering his eyes, but he didn't see Sima Yue, nor Princess Wan. There was only Chen Tingqiu in the big open space, his eyes were swollen , with disheveled hair, he seems to have lost weight after two days of seeing each other, he choked up and said, "Xiao Xiao, Chu Yu and Boss Zhen said they couldn't bear to come, let me... give you a ride..."

"Thank you, Ting Qiu. If there is another life, I hope to learn opera from you again. That will be the happiest time in my life." The small voice trembled a little, although she felt that death might be another beginning, but Still can't quite resist the fear of it.Chen Tingqiu nodded vigorously, weeping uncontrollably, engraved Xiao Xiao deeply into his mind through his hazy tearful eyes.

The supervisor and executioner was in place, the executioner's knife was shining coldly, and the flag was fluttering in the wind.Princess Wan didn't come, and neither did Sima Yue. At this moment, Su Xiaoxiao felt like a joke. The friendship and love she tried so hard to pursue and trust did not give her any comfort at this moment.

The sundial gradually moved towards noon, only to hear the supervisor shout loudly: "It's time!" The arrow made an arc and fell to the ground with a bang!
Su Xiaoxiao was pressed and knelt down on the execution platform. She closed her eyes and let out a long sigh of relief—it's really hard to live, but it's easier to die.Immediately afterwards, she heard the sound of the knife piercing through the air, and could even feel the coldness of the knife tip!

"Leave people under the knife!"

Just at this critical moment, a clear cry pierced the sky.
