Murong Zun saw that it was noon, and he was also anxious, and said: "Quick, pass the decree, release Li Ke, the king of Shu, and stop the attack on the Tang army outside the city." ”

Li You said: "Without further ado, the Tang army outside the city, please ask the Khan to send an adult with my guard Baihu to rush there, and I will go to the execution ground with the prime minister to release people." ”

Murong Zun agreed.

Out of the palace gate, Li You and Hao Lianbot rode side by side.

Li You said: "Prime Minister Xie Cheng. ”

Hao Lianbot said: "My Murong Bo Khan owes His Highness a favor, and I will pay it back for him." It turned out that he was Murong Bo who was an internal response to the people at work.

Li You smiled: "This is just the beginning, I will take care of you Tuyuhun in the future." ”

Hao Lianbot said: "Then I will thank His Highness for my Khan." ”

On the execution ground.

The sun was rising higher and higher, and it seemed that it was almost three o'clock in the afternoon.

A large number of spectators have gathered in the square, among which there are many Tubo people who survived last night, and they heard that the people who robbed and killed people last night were impersonated by Tang Dynasty people, so they focused their hatred on Li Ke and others.

At this moment, their eyes were full of fire, staring at Li Ke and the others, waiting for the moment when their heads hit the ground.

Li Ke was tied to a pillar and had been wilted. This morning, his mind was not idle, constantly flashing the past, flashing the faces of his relatives.

He has a lot of regrets. In the past, most of his energy was spent on fighting for power and profit, and he neglected his family for a long time, not only owing to the princess and children, but also failing to fulfill his filial piety to his mother......

He thought of Li Chengqian and Li Tai, knowing that after he died, they would clap their hands and celebrate, and he regretted coming to Tuyuhun.

What he thought about and thought about was that he didn't think about that Li You, who was not stingy.

Quan Wanji is different, in this life, he thinks about Li You the most. How many times have I dreamed of him, even at this moment when his life is on the verge of death, Li You has appeared in his mind the most.

Quan Wanji was conceited and smart, and that court competition left an indelible mark on him.

He suddenly had a thought: "If it was Li You, the king of Qi, who came to Tuyuhun to announce the decree this time, would the result be different?" He suddenly found that he trusted Li You more.

"The hour has come." Said a minister in charge of overseeing the beheading.

A group of soldiers came up, untied Li Ke and the others from the pillar, and pushed them to the round wooden pier used for beheading.

The round wooden pier, which had been soaked in countless blood, was dirty and dirty after being exposed to wind and rain. Li Ke and the others' heads were pressed, and their cheeks were pressed against the surface of the dirty wooden pier.

At this point, probably no one cares about this anymore, they are either numb with fear, or they are thinking about the most important thing before they die.

Li Ke is very brave and very conscious, he regrets that he will never have the high imperial power again in this life.

At this time, a minor official among the envoys of the Tang Dynasty cried out of fear.

Quan Wanji said angrily: "Bad seed, you are an official of Datang, and you can't lose my face in Datang if you die!"

At this time, the warden shouted: "The hour has come, execution!" ”

The open-chested and shirtless executioners spat at the palm of their hand, clenched the ghost-headed broadsword in their hand, raised it high, and were about to cut it down.

"Keep people under the knife!"

Naturally, Li You and Hao Lianbot arrived.

Hao Lianbot said to the supervisor: "The Khan has a decree to immediately release His Royal Highness the King of Shu of the Tang Dynasty and his subordinates. ”

……

Li Ke and Quan Wanji, who had turned around from the Ghost Gate, had mixed feelings when they saw the radiant scumbag king Li You. Thankfully, they had saved their lives. They were also annoyed, and this time they were slapped in the face again.

Li Ke said embarrassedly: "Thank you, fifth brother." ”

Quan Wanji was even more embarrassed, he arched his hand, opened his mouth, and never said a word of thanks.

Li You didn't care, just smiled.

The officials who were tied up with Li Ke to the court never dreamed of being able to escape death, and they cried with joy one by one, and stepped forward to express their gratitude to Li You.

Soon, Li You left the execution ground with them.

Outside the city, Xue Wanjun and others also met Baihu and others at the moment when they were about to break through and resolved the crisis.

Li You, Li Ke, Xue Wanjun and others went together to participate in the conspiratorial banquet held by Murong Zun. Then he left the city with his troops.

Shanzhou Thorn History. The headquarters of the Western Expeditionary Army was temporarily set up here.

Hou Junji and Li Daozong have experienced countless wars, and they have never been so easy, they are idle every day, eating and drinking, and their small days are very leisurely.

Yesterday, they had already received the news that Li Ke, the king of Shu, and the soldiers of the Western Expeditionary Army had been out of danger and were about to arrive in Shanzhou today.

Finally entered the territory of the Great Tang Longyou Road. Li Ke and the others and the soldiers of the Western Expeditionary Army who survived the catastrophe completely relaxed their hearts.

That night, Li You, Li Ke and their entourage stayed at the post station.

In Li You's room, Li You, Gao Yong, Cheng Chuliang, Yu Chi Baoqi, Bai Hu and Hamid were drinking and chatting.

Li You said: "General Gao, do you have any news about the 100 people you left in Saltwater Bend?" ”

Gao Yong said: "Your Highness Xie is worried, they have received orders and are hurrying back, and they will be back soon." ”

"That's good." Li You said.

Zhang Guigui said: "Brother You, we have counted the property of the Tubo people who robbed the people in Fuqi City, guess how many?" ”

Involved in the robbery of the Tibetans were Gao Yong, Zhang Guigui, Cheng Chuliang, Wei Chi Baoqi, Hou Cheng, Li Duan, Bai Hu and their men, as well as Hamid's men.

Everyone was intrigued, and their eyes were fixed on the big mouth of the precious one.

Zhang Guigui smiled: "Haha, haha, hahahaha." ”

Hou Cheng couldn't look down on Zhang Guigui's wealth obsession, and urged: "Precious, what do you say, how much?" ”

"Hahahaha, let me tell you, the cash is a total of 253,000 yuan, and the value of jewelry and jade is more than 1.2 million yuan. Haha, hahaha!" Zhang Guigui smiled proudly.

"That's a lot!" There was a burst of excitement in the crowd.

Zhang Guigui said: "Brother You, I've done it all. The number of people who participated in the robbery, plus the 100 people left by General Gao in Saltwater Bend, was 476 in total, and a total of 27 people were killed in battle during this period. ”

His statistics include those brought back from Chang'an by Li You and others, those brought by Gao Yong to Fuqi City, and those who remained in Saltwater Bend.

Li You said to Hamid: "Old Ha, I'll give you half of the jewelry and jade, and you give me 150,000 yuan in cash, okay?" ”

Hamid laughed: "Let me take advantage again?!" Then thank you. "This time, his subordinates robbed at least 150,000 yuan of property, and Li You gave him 600,000 yuan of jewelry and jade, and he could sell at least 300,000 yuan for cash.

Li You said to the group of money-obsessed people around him: "The rest of the jewelry and jade are given to my father." A fraction of the cash money was left and given to Hou Junji and Li Daozong, and the rest were all divided according to the level of official positions. ”
