Chapter 432 The catastrophe comes out, the saint appears ([-])
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! I am terrified, I don't know why I should be treated like this!"
Before Spiegel could ask, Marquis Biff cried out first.
"Hmph, you really don't know?"
Spiegel snorted coldly, and looked at Marquis Biff with disdain.
Marquis Biff actually knew it in his heart, but he still refused to admit it with the last sliver of luck.
"Your Majesty, this humble minister is loyal to his duties and the country. I don't know what he has done to offend His Majesty. Please forgive him."
After finishing speaking, Marquis Biff gave a heavy kowtow.
"Still quibbling."
Spiegel stood up with an angry face, walked up to Marquis Biff and kicked him.
"Do you think no one knows about the fact that you sent people to the north?"
Lord Biff's heart was beating wildly.
"Weichen, I just sent a caravan to do business with the Alabasta Empire. Your Majesty, you have never done anything to harm the Federation."
Marquis Biff argued.
"Hehe, yes, do you think I have no evidence and am just defrauding you?"
Spiegel said with a smile.
"I don't dare. Everything I said is true. If Your Majesty thinks that I am wrong, please punish me as much as I can. I am willing to accept the crime."
The Marquis of Biff's move is to retreat, to die and survive. If Spiegel has no substantive evidence, he may still have a chance.
"It doesn't matter if you don't admit it, just press it down and lock it up."
Spiegel asked the female guard to take Marquis Biff down and temporarily detain him.
"Spiegel, why don't you just kill him? He's so bad! He wants to kill Sister Tracy."
Soina was puzzled.
"Don't worry, after all the nobles are caught, I will let them tell the people about their plot before killing him, and execute him publicly. It's too cheap to kill him now."
Spiegel said.
If most of the nobles of the Spirit Beast Kingdom were executed rashly, it would cause serious instability to the newly established Han Federation.
Moreover, the relationships of these nobles in their local area are all intertwined. It is unrealistic to completely kill them all. They should win over a group and eliminate a group.
Moreover, the execution must be made public, allowing them to list their own evidence and plead guilty at the end, so that the people will accept it more easily, and they will not feel that Spiegel is taking the opportunity to eradicate dissidents.
Although Spiegel can rely on his overwhelming strength to ignore these rules, he will grow old sooner or later.
And being regarded as a brutal ruler, Spiegel will not feel comfortable.
After a day, many nobles were arrested one after another during this period.
Spiegel also didn't intend to ransack the family and exterminate the family. Basically, he only captured the person who holds the title of nobility.
His purpose was not to kill, but to deter. However, as the chief villain of the Biff family, Spiegel was all arrested.
After another day, all the nobles involved in the case were arrested. They were all in Chang'an, waiting for good news from Marquis Biff, so they were easy to catch.
Only a few prudent people noticed a little trouble, and some wanted to make up and escape, but they were spotted and caught at the gate of the city.
Some hid in the hidden hiding places prepared before, hoping to wait for the wind to pass before leaving the city quietly.
However, there are quite a few capable people among the royal guards, and there are special tracking masters, but they were still found and arrested.
Spiegel asked the female guard to pick up Marquis Biff from the palace prison in Griffin City. He has eaten and drank well these two days, and he doesn't look haggard.
Spiegel couldn't help but give him a high look, he still behaved like this when he was about to die, he was considered a character.
The palace bell rang, and the citizens in Chang'an came to Griffin City one after another.
The slope below here has been changed into a huge square, enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people.
But even if it is so big, it is impossible to let all the [-] permanent residents in Chang'an City come in, so Sigrisa arranged for the royal guards to maintain order early on, and only one person per household can come in.
About two hours later, there were already a sea of people standing in the square, and there were also people on the roofs of the buildings outside the square.
Those who couldn't come in could not bear to be curious, and wanted to see what His Majesty the Emperor was going to do.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Spiegel asked someone to ring the bell again, but this time the frequency of the bell was different from the previous one, and it was more rapid.
This means that he is about to appear.
Spiegel attended in formal attire, and all the queens of the four palaces behind him were present. Surrounded by the royal guard of honor, Spiegel drove out of Griffin City in a car pulled by Naz.
At the end of the line, followed by a prison cart, on which the Marquis of Biff was imprisoned.
The execution platform had already been set up in the square. Except for Marquis Biff, all the other nobles had already kneeled on the platform. Behind each of them stood a soldier in heavy armor and wearing a helmet.
These soldiers are the executioners, also called executioners. They hold the gleaming big knives in their hands, and they will use these big knives to chop off people's heads later.
The reason why they wear heavy armor and full-cover helmets is to prevent the true identities of these soldiers from being revealed.
Because the executioner's hands are stained with blood after all, it is easy for ordinary civilians to feel unlucky or evil.
In the past, the public execution was basically hanging. This method of beheading was proposed by Spiegel.
Losing the head must have more visual impact than hanging, so the identity information of the executioner is kept confidential.
Spiegel came to the side of the execution platform, where a higher platform was built.
Picking up the ladder, Spiegel and the four queens went to their seats and sat down.
Marquis Biff also came here, his prison car was opened, and he walked out from inside with chaotic eyes.
Spiegel had summoned Ning Caichen to hypnotize him before he came, and followed the executioner to the execution platform in a daze.
After all the preparations were done, Spiegel stood up, walked to the magic loudspeaker, and began to speak.
He first talked about the conspiracy of the nobles, and the audience was in an uproar. How could the commoners have imagined that the nobles of the Spirit Beast Kingdom would be so mad.
The new federation, new capital, and new policies are all extremely friendly to civilians.
Spiegel's New Deal has greatly reduced the burden on the group of poor people who had the most insecure lives before, and provided the most basic living security.
These are the effects of Spiegel's investment of a lot of real money from the country, so the common people are very satisfied with their new life now.
Unexpectedly, these nobles wanted to murder such a good emperor as Spiegel, and brought them back to the days when they were precarious, and they often had to sell their sons and daughters to make a living.
Immediately, the crowd in the square was excited, and the civilians roared for the execution.
However, there are not only civilians here, but also other nobles and big businessmen. Their horizons are broader, and they don't believe all of Spiegel's words, and they even wonder if Spiegel is eradicating dissidents.
