“Sh*t! It’s all lies. Jethro, if you want to kill my sister and me, just do it and stop blubbering,” Quincy spat out coldly.
Jethro looked horrible. Quincy confronted him, an emperor, in front of so many people. What about his reputation and his supremacy?
"Execute them!" Jethro yelled without hesitation, enraged.
In an instant, several palace guards walked forward and dragged Quincy and her sister out of the prisoner wagon. Then, they escorted them to the execution platform.
All the citizens watching could not help but start to discuss. Every citizen watching started chattering away.
“What a shameless woman. Don’t waste any more time!”
“She’s the Empress, but she’s so shameless. She deserves to die!”
“Kill her!”
As they talked, many people could not control their emotions as they pointed and yelled at Quincy.
The crowd did not stop cursing at her. The Empress’s face was filled with anger, grief and despair. ‘Am I going to die? I don’t want to die!’
“My sister is not a slut! She’s being slandered,” Quincy yelled.
However, the shouts around her were too loud, and the noise drowned out her voice.
At that moment, the royal guard next to her yelled, “Huh?!”
Then, he drew his long blade and slashed at the Empress’s neck. The Empress shut her eyes in despair and thought, ‘It doesn’t matter if I die. I’m sad for my unborn child.’
"Stop!"
Just as the Empress was about to be executed, someone shouted from above nearby, “Stop!”
