"I was a Jinshi in the Yinian year of the Song Dynasty, and became a Jinshi in the second year of Yiguang. I have been favored by His Majesty and have been awarded the title for more than 20 years."

Song Yi burst into tears and bowed deeply again.

"From the county magistrate of Changlong County in Lingzhou to the magistrate of Lingzhou Prefecture, I served in Lingzhou as an official for more than 20 years."

"For more than twenty years, I have kept in mind His Majesty's kindness, which has enabled me to serve in official positions, serve the imperial court, and serve the people of Lingzhou. I have also kept in mind my original intention to be loyal to the Lord and protect the people, and I will not forget it for a day."

"But God didn't treat me well, so Lingzhou suffered this disaster."

"One wrong thought on my part could lead to today's catastrophe."

"Even if I have hard reasons, my sin is unforgivable."

"In the heaven above, I wish you the best of my life. I use this remaining life as a sacrifice. I ask God to have mercy on the people and forgive me for my sins."

"I will have no regrets in this life."

After the words fell, while everyone was still stunned, Song Yinian's skinny body, bursting out of energy from nowhere, actually hit the stone pillar of the execution platform, and blood spattered on the spot in an instant.

After Lian Qinghui had just untied the shackles of Song Zhifu, he walked to Prince Ning to discuss the next thing with him. Before he could react, Song Yinian had already passed away.

Killed by hitting a pillar.

I don’t know how much strength I have accumulated and how much determination I have made.

"Master Song, Master Song!"

When the people reacted, they couldn't help crying.

Song Tanxi hugged her younger brother and burst into tears.

She was closest to the execution platform, and she was probably the first person to notice Magistrate Song's thoughts, but she said nothing and could only watch her father make this decision.

He studied hard for half his life and worked as an official for half his life.

At the beginning, I studied to change my destiny. Later, I joined the court and became an official for the responsibility and the ideal of being a scholar.

But God made such a joke.

Is Magistrate Song really right?

Of course he was wrong.

There was a severe drought in Lingzhou three years ago. He reported it to the court but got no result, and he also had a different idea.

I was lucky enough to think that if I waited a little longer, even if something went wrong, I would still have time to make up for it.

The result was such a tragic ending.

Once he wakes up, the most difficult thing for him is not to face the mistakes he made, what mistakes he made, and why he made such mistakes.

But his life's ideals collapsed, and he had no face to face the people who were still willing to intercede for him and spare his life, and he had no face to face himself.

That’s why I chose to end my life in such a decisive way.

Qing Hui looked at Magistrate Song's body, bent down and saluted.

Prince Ning also followed with the officials who followed him and bowed to the prefect of Song Dynasty.

"Gao Yi, the prefect of the Song Dynasty."

Qing Hui looked at the crying people below, knelt down and worshiped with his hands on the ground.

"I hope the sky will take pity on the people of Lingzhou and bring down the sweet rain."

Prince Ning and other officials also fell down and worshiped.

It’s past noon, but the sun is blazing in the sky.

Qing Hua was lying on the ground, a little nervous.

Your Majesty said that just praying for rain is fine, but is her gesture okay?

……

The wilderness on the outskirts of Lingzhou City.

Lian Xueyin stood in an open field. There were patches of cracked earth and long-dead weeds on the ground.

He looked up at the sky, and his glazed golden pupils seemed to blend into the light.

Suddenly, a hole seemed to be torn open in the sky by his gaze, and a tall shadow holding a green umbrella came from the void.

He stood in mid-air, lowered his eyes and looked at Lian Xueyin,

"Shigure has met your Lord."
