"Has the lord ever said when the levee will be dug up?" Tai Shici stood on the embankment and asked Cheng Gongying.

"I didn't say it explicitly, I just said that the more water stored the better," Cheng Gongying looked at the lake that had formed in front of him, "Now that the heavy rain is still falling, in my opinion, I'm afraid our dam is about to be unbearable, so let's do it as soon as possible." ”

"Okay, wait a little longer, and then send that group of horses to feed Wang Ba," Tai Shici rubbed his hands and was eager to try, "It's hard to think about it, but it's a pity that I can't wait to see it." ”

……

At this time, Liu Ping was sitting in Tianshui City, and Zhang Liao hurriedly came to report: "My lord, I heard that we arrested Liang Qian, and many squires knelt in front of the door and wanted to ask Liang Qian for his life.

What to do? Did the last general drive away with his troops? ”

Liu Ping looked at the raindrops falling from the sky outside the window, and smiled: "They are not afraid of the rain, they are willing to kneel and kneel, what do they do to drive them away?" ”

"However, ordinary people are just ordinary people, and there are still many old people among those people," Zhang Liao said worriedly: "Now that the weather is cold and raining, if those old people can't bear it and die in front of the lord's door, I am afraid it will not be good for the lord's reputation."

After all, those people can be regarded as people with a small name. ”

"That's the same," Liu Ping frowned, and said after a moment's silence: "What's going on with this Liang Qian you went to investigate, is he really not afraid of death?" ”

Zhang Liao said: "This Liang Qian is the main record, according to the investigation of the last general, he usually loves to read history, and the person he admires the most is Taishi Gong, so he has long had the ambition to leave a name in history."

It is said that before Ma Zun led the officials here, they had discussed in private, and it was Liang Qian who took the initiative to refute the lord, even if he angered the lord, he would not let everyone plead, and he would bear it alone.

According to the general, he did come to seek death.

It's just that if the lord kills him, his reputation will be fulfilled, after all, he is here to ask for the people's life, and then the lord will be called cruel and tyrannical in the history books.

For such a person, the last general will think that it is not worth it. ”

"It's actually a fame and reputation fisher who came to me to touch porcelain," Liu Ping sneered, "If you want me to kill him, you want to be beautiful." ”

"Lord, what is touching porcelain?" Zhang Liao asked puzzled.

"Eh, it's ......" Liu Ping thought about it, and he really couldn't say a word or two, so he said: "If I really kill him, I will be touched by him." ”

A small person, if he dreams of leaving a name in history, it is too difficult.

But if he is killed by a brutal man because of a righteous thing, then his name is tied to the big man.

How many originally insignificant people in history have been admired by future generations because they were killed because of their iron bones, colliding with the powerful?

Liang Qian just wants to be such a character, now what he has done is righteous enough, Liu Ping's fame is also big enough, if he dies in the hands of Liu Ping because of his name, his righteous deeds will be passed down and passed on for generations.

"How did you find out about these things?" Liu Ping looked at Zhang Liao with interest, but he didn't expect that this product still had the potential to be a spy.

"It's not a secret, the last general didn't have a clue, but I happened to run into Xiao Jiang Wei, and he told the last general," Zhang Liao smiled embarrassedly.

Since Liu Ping had an order, Xiao Jiang Wei has come to see his idol several times, and he also knows Zhang Liao and other generals.

Zhang Liao said with a smile: "Don't look at that little Jiang Wei is young, but he is a big ghost, no one cares if he follows his father in and out of the Taishou Mansion, and he doesn't carry such a little baby when he wants to come to discuss things."

But he secretly wrote down all the things that the gang had discussed, and revealed all of them to the last general. ”

"Is this a fake news that they deliberately let Xiao Jiang Wei hear?" Liu Ping had to think deeper, after all, although Jiang Wei was smart, he was too young, and it seemed a little hasty to judge Liang Qian's motives because of a child's words.

Zhang Liao bowed and said: "This last general has also thought of it, so the last general secretly caught a personal guard of Ma Zun, and confirmed from the mouth of the personal guard that what Xiao Jiang Wei said was not right." ”

"Then it's a real hammer, when I go to meet Liang Qian's house, he wants to die, I don't want him to die," said Liu Ping, stepping out.

Although Liang Qian wants to gain a good reputation, Liu Ping is unwilling to leave an infamy for such a small person.

Not to mention the aftermath, now he has just left a reputation as a "virtuous king" in the hearts of the people of Guanzhong, and attracted people from all over the world to vote.

It was still raining heavily, Liu Ping looked at the sky and pondered, probably Tai Shici and their release of water in the past few days.

An entourage held an umbrella for Liu Ping and came to the backyard where Liang Qian was imprisoned.

Liang Qian was not a prisoner, so no one shackled him, but he was held in a quiet room, which was equivalent to house arrest.

The door was opened, Liu Ping glanced at Liang Qian who was curled up in the corner, and said with a smile: "Master Liang, you deliberately provoked this king, but this king did not kill you, you are very disappointed, right?" ”

The muscles in the corners of Liang Qian's eyes trembled, and he snorted coldly, "If you don't kill me, I should be happy, how can I be disappointed?" It's just inexplicable. ”

After speaking, he turned his head and didn't look at Liu Ping.

"That's good, don't talk about this," Liu Ping smiled: "Today's rain is good, Lord Liang accompanies this king to see how the rain scene is?" ”

"Now that the army is besieging the city, and the city is broken only overnight, the lives of the people in the city are on the line, and their lives are hanging by a thread, are you still in the mood to see the rain?" Liang Qian looked at Liu Ping with a surprised look on his face, as if to say, why is your heart so big?

"According to what you say, anyway, everyone doesn't have a few days to live, so why bother expecting Ai Ai, you haven't heard of life being happy," Liu Ping said and waved his hand, and two pro-soldiers went over and forcibly erected Liang Qian.

When I came to the gate of the house, I saw a dense crowd of people kneeling in the rain.

Originally, there were only dozens of leading figures here asking for Liang Qian's life, but gradually, more and more people knew about it, and more and more people came to kneel.

The army besieged the city for more than ten days, and after Ma Tengxiang's threat, the people in the city had already panicked.

After word of mouth, they all know how strong the enemy army is outside, the so-called Wang Shi under Liu Ping is not an opponent at all, and now there are no reinforcements outside, no matter how much grain and grass there is in the city, sooner or later there will be a time when the enemy army will run out, and it will become a matter of time before the city is broken.

So everyone came to ask for their lives, hoping that Liu Ping could make peace with Ma Teng for the sake of the people in the city.

At this time, as soon as Liu Ping came out, there was a tsunami-like sound.

A white-bearded old man kneeling at the front said tremblingly: "Ask the king for mercy, obey the will of Liang Gong, open the city gate and negotiate peace with the enemy."

If you resist, not only will all the people in the city be slaughtered, but I am afraid that the king will also be killed, right? ”
