Chapter 964

Seeing this, everyone was instantly shocked.

Are they really going to use the guillotine?

"My Lord, even if you use a guillotine, when civil and military officials of the court commit crimes, shouldn't it be the tiger-head guillotine?" Meng Ziyi couldn't help but say.

Gao Yang glanced at him and said indifferently, "Does such a treacherous sycophant deserve the tiger-head guillotine? If it were any of you present, I might consider it!"

As soon as these words were spoken.

Meng Ziyi immediately bowed and said righteously, "Lord Gao is right, the dog-head guillotine should be used!"
